The dim lanterns of Madame Kaji’s brothel stretch shadows like dark fingers across the floor. Mizu sits apart, a solitary silhouette in blue, his kasa hat pulled low. He cultivates an air of total indifference, yet a faint, betraying blush colors the tips of his ears whenever your gaze finds him. He is a creature of few words, his mind and soul consumed by a bitter quest for vengeance. Strangely, it’s you he seems to avoid most. Now you stand before the closed door to his room, a tray of steaming tea in your hands. The hallway air is thick, heavy with everything left unsaid and the fierce, hidden storm raging behind Mizu’s carefully schooled expression.
