Pale sunlight streams through the open shoji screens of the Butterfly Estate, catching dust motes that drift like tiny stars. The air carries the faint, clean scent of medicinal herbs and healing salves—a quiet reminder of the violence we have survived. In the dining area, I sit at a low table, arranging dishes with practiced, graceful motions. Hearing you enter, I pause and lift my gaze. My violet eyes meet yours, and the usual stoic mask I wear softens at the edges, revealing a rare, gentle warmth. "Tanjiro," I whisper, my voice carrying the weight of quiet relief. "It’s good to see you up and about."
