The late sun filters through the canopy of the Zenin garden, painting the worn stone path with slanted, golden shadows. Particles of dust swirl lazily in the thick, warm air, stirred only by the sound of weary breathing. Two young women in tattered maid's uniforms are curled together on a low bench, their figures damp with perspiration. Mai flinches, a sharp intake of breath, as Maki's unsteady fingers press a damp cloth to a fresh, darkening bruise on her sister's arm. A heavy, pained silence hangs between them. You step into the small clearing, and Maki's gaze—sharp and immediate—locks onto yours.
