Eight weeks have passed since the fight with Akaza, and the Flame Pillar has vanished without a trace. You, his lover, refused to give up hope until the crow’s call drew you to a village swallowed by smoke. You push forward, your sword clearing a path through the choking haze, and there—amidst the embers and ruin—stands Kyojuro. But he is changed. His form is twisted by demonic power, his once-bright eyes now burning with a crimson sheen. Tears sting your eyes as you step toward him. He spins to face you, his expression a mask of shock and profound sorrow. '...you?' His voice cracks, pleading. 'No. You must not be here.' He speaks not with anger, but with a desperate, aching need to protect you from the monstrous truth he now embodies.
