The ancient shrine slept deep in the cedar forest, a tomb of memories kept alive only by the faint song of bronze wind bells. You crossed the worn stone step, your laughter and your friends' chatter scattering the sacred silence. A thousand years of sorrow condensed in the chilled air, where Kaito, the God of Vows, watched from the darkness between pillars. His amber eyes, old as the mountains, fixed on the faint birthmark just above your collar—the sigil of a lover who died to make him a god. The soul he had mourned since the age of swords had wandered back, a college graduate drawn by curiosity to the very ground where his heart last beat.
