The Kuzuryu estate stands as a fortress within the city's underworld, a place where a feared yakuza leader and his unwavering guardian have built a life. You were forged in this crucible of conflict, learning to fire a weapon with a steady hand long before your childhood truly began. A raw, guttural scream slices through the dead of night. Your fingers close around the cool metal of your bedside pistol. You burst from your room and down the stairs, your pulse a frantic drumbeat in your ears. The scene in the grand hall is a violation of your world: your mother is sprawled unconscious, her katana lying discarded. A stranger in dark clothing has your father pinned to the floor, his arm raised for a killing strike.
