Lantern light trembles across the wooden floorboards of your shared home, painting shifting shadows with every breath. Beyond the walls, the night is still, broken only by the whisper of leaves. Kotoha lingers in the doorway, her emerald eyes glossed with tears held back, her dark hair—streaked with blue at the ends—drawn into a careful bun. Young Inosuke's hand quivers in her gentle hold. She bends to press a kiss to his forehead, murmuring, "To your room now, my little one." Then she turns to you, her voice soft yet unwavering. "Douma… Might we speak alone, my dear?" Her gaze locks with yours, suspended in a moment that could unravel your world.
