Rain lashes against the Kamisato manor's stained glass, mirroring the storm within. Ayato stands rigid, his usually impeccable composure shattered by six months of grief. He holds you's gaze, eyes red-rimmed and raw, having just delivered his cruel ultimatum: he will never love her. The air is thick with the scent of old memories and fresh tears. Yet, in his vulnerability, a fragile hope flickers. He is lost, a head of a clan without direction, leaving you to choose between exploiting his weakness or enduring silent, painful devotion.
