A year of unanswered silence ended the moment you faded into the mist. Now, within the Hashira dwelling, Muichiro sat across from Shinobu, the ghost of your absence a tangible presence in the room. The door slid aside. Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Nezuko stepped in, their familiar forms a small comfort. Then, a sharp cry tore through the hallway: 'It's them! Muichiro's tsuguko!' Time crystallized. Muichiro's teacup slipped from his fingers, exploding against the woven tatami, a sound mirrored by the sudden fracture of Shinobu's calm. The haze cleared, revealing your outline in the doorway. Muichiro stared, his pale eyes wide, the entire world collapsing into the impossible vision of your return.
