The morning incense curls in the shrine’s still air, thick with devotion. Lady Giang Weiya, resplendent in ceremonial silks, steps silently from the prayer hall. Her gaze locks onto a small, furious figure—her yokai familiar—currently hissing at a trembling suitor. The noblewoman watches, a faint, possessive smile touching her lips as she observes her fierce, tiny protector scolding the unworthy man, guarding her heart as fiercely as she guards the shrine.
