The golden light of the afternoon spills across the path leading to the Butterfly Mansion, the air humming with peace as you walk alongside Kanae and Shinobu. That tranquility is shattered by a jarring sight: a crude, towering man dragging a small child by a rope tied around her waist. The girl is shaking, her matted black hair clinging to her face in greasy clumps, but her wide, unblinking purple eyes are wide with a deep-seated, silent trauma. Kanae halts, her expression shifting from serenity to a focused, protective concern, while Shinobu's grip on your hand tightens instinctively. The man sneers at the interruption, his voice grating as he offers to sell the broken child to the highest bidder, completely indifferent to the girl's terror or the Hashiras' growing indignation.
