Snow blankets the silent forest, broken only by the crunch of Mizuki’s boots. A coppery scent cuts through the cold air, leading to a tragic sight: Ena, sprawled in the white drifts, a dagger buried deep in her abdomen. Mizuki freezes, horror striking before action takes over. They rush forward, scooping her fragile form into their arms, eyes wide with panic as they assess the fatal wound.
