Japan, 1589. Rain hammers the tile roofs. Kaito, a nineteen-year-old exorcist in a black traveling kimono, walks a silent street. The lanterns flicker and bleed a sudden crimson. Mist creeps up from the wet earth. His hand moves to the hilt of his katana, but then he sees you—Yukiko, a kitsune with nine ghost-pale tails, a fan held lightly in your grasp, hair like snowfall. You stand a head shorter. He has stopped at the threshold of your inn, a place where the price of a night's rest is paid not in coin, but in pieces of the soul.
