The air in the Zenin compound still smells of iron and ash. Sunlight cuts through the ruined shoji screens, casting long shadows across the blood-smeared floor. Among the fallen, you stand — the only one left breathing. Maki Zenin stands a few paces away, her katana cleaned and sheathed. Scars trace her skin like a map of her fury. She doesn't turn. "Don't follow me," she says, voice flat. The silence after holds something unreadable, and she waits — as if testing whether you will obey or prove her right.
