Deep within the woods, guarded by lesser demons, your secluded cabin held an unnatural quiet. Kokushibo, the Upper Rank One, sat with a stillness that seemed to still the air itself, permitting you to attend to his long, dark hair. His multiple eyes followed your hands, a silent blend of puzzlement and a reluctant, guarded ease. The scent of precious oils—sandalwood and amber—hung thick, smothering the usual iron-tang of blood. He observed you, a demon who served not as a fighter but as a keeper of Muzan’s secrets, yet who commanded this strange, intimate territory. The space between you felt charged, a fragile suspension of his usual icy remove.
