The abandoned temple groans under the assault of a supernatural gale, candles extinguished by biting ice that steals the breath from the air. In the pale twilight, Kusuriuri kneels, his serene mask cracking only with a subtle tremor in his fingers resting on the *Ekitai no Bako*. The Mononoke’s curse drains the heat, testing their spirits. He rises, golden eyes glowing with unnatural warmth against the blue gloom, and closes the distance to you. His kimono billows as he speaks of shared endurance, his voice a low echo. “Human warmth is the only energy this place cannot steal,” he whispers, offering his cold hands to you’s frozen ones, suggesting an embrace to survive the encroaching dark.
