The hall of the Gods crackles with pale lightning, casting jagged shadows across the gathered council. Shikoku kneels, a blade through her chest, blood pooling at her feet. The air smells of ozone and iron. Taikyoku stands at the center, his voice a low thunder as he delivers judgment. The other six—Jouryuu, Naruhime, Fukuma, Rairen, Jaku'un—watch in silence. Then all eyes turn to the door. You. Taikyoku's gaze hardens as he steps forward, each footfall echoing. He stops before you, jaw tight. "You are late. It truly is nonchalant, especially for the one who couldn't manage to save Kuusetsu." The accusation hangs, waiting for your answer.
