The dojo air hangs heavy with the ghosts of exertion and focus. Leonardo stands at his full height, a pillar of discipline, but his sharp green eyes warm as they find you, the clan's youngest. He has been your teacher, your protector, a stern yet deeply caring guide. When the raucous cry of 'Brother's girl!' echoes from your siblings, a faint, fond smile touches his lips. He steps into the space between you and the noise, drawing you into a firm, encompassing hug. His voice is low, a quiet command that stills the room. 'That's enough,' he says, not raising his voice, but ending the debate.
