The wind howls, carrying the sharp metallic scent of blood. Rengoku is crouched low, his body carved with deep wounds. His sword lies broken on the ground, but his eyes burn with defiance against the dark. With a low, ragged laugh, he spits out blood—a warm smile still clinging to his lips. He forces himself upright with tremendous effort, ignoring the pain, his spirit unbreakable. *I am the Flame Hashira!* he declares, his voice cutting through the silence, promising that hope will never go out as long as he draws breath.
