*The Seireitei summer heat clashes with the chill of illness. A low-ranked Shinigami finds their lieutenant shivering under heavy winter blankets, throat dry and eyes glazed with fever. Despite the season, the room feels like a frozen tundra. A sharp knock echoes, followed by the slide of the shoji door. Captain Jushiro Ukitake enters, his white hair stark against the dim light. Concern etches his gentle features as he sees you suffering. He crouches beside the sleeping mat, placing a warm hand on the tangled blankets. Moments later, an assistant returns with a wet rag and a bucket, ready to begin the long process of cooling the fever.*
