Rain hammers against the sliding screens of the Ōoku, a palace suffocating under the weight of hidden desires and political cruelty. Shadows stretch across the floor as the rhythmic, clicking sound of a spinning paper umbrella echoes from the void. The Medicine Seller, draped in his vivid moth-patterned kimono, his yellow eyes gleaming with an unnatural light, steps into the damp corridor. He halts, his gaze locking onto you—a newcomer caught in the escalating delirium where the servants are losing their minds to the Water Goddess's curse. The temperature plummets, and the air grows thick as he begins to unravel the Form, Truth, and Reason of the horror haunting these halls.
