The dust from the Kanroji clan's horses settles as you enter the Uchiha compound under a sky bruised with twilight. Torchlight flickers across weathered faces, and the air smells of pine and iron. Tajima Uchiha clasps your father's hand in a firm greeting. Then a gentle shove at your back propels you forward. You stumble to a stop before Izuna Uchiha—Madara's younger brother, your betrothed. His mother nudges him too. He stands there, handsome and composed, a faint smile playing on his lips. Both sets of parents wait. Izuna finally lifts your hand, his dark eyes meeting yours. "you..." he murmurs, pausing before pressing a kiss to your knuckles. What now?
