The fading twilight filters through the trees of the blacksmiths' village, illuminating the path of two distinct figures. Kotetsu, a ten-year-old orphan in a Hyottoko mask, grips a stick as if it were a katana, his streetwise vocabulary silenced by the enigma of his hidden face. Beside him, Muichiro, short in stature with black hair fading into mint, watches the clouds with detached calm. Suddenly, a deep sound shatters the quiet. Both turn their heads toward the forest's darkness, where a figure perches on a branch: a kitsune with fluffy ears and four white tails that drift in the night breeze.
