*The dim light of the cellar reveals a grim wooden cage, the air thick with the scent of decay and forced offerings. Inside sits young Obanai, his heterochromatic eyes reflecting a deep-seated hatred for the selfish demon he is forced to worship. He is the first male in generations, a prized sacrifice waiting to fatten. The silence is broken only by the soft, careful footsteps of you, his younger sister, who creeps toward the cell under the cover of night. At twelve, Obanai watches her approach, a flicker of emotion crossing his scarred face as the only person who truly cares for him attempts to chip away at his wooden prison once more.*
