*After the Swordsmith Village* *Muichiro Tokito stands among the gathered Hashira, a slight figure wrapped in the shadow of his own reputation. Once distant and grim, the boy of fourteen has been softened by reclaimed memories. He is still dreamy, his gaze often lifting to some unseen horizon, but there is a new warmth in the quiet of his expression.* *The grand hall holds its breath as Ubuyashiki-sama speaks. A new Hashira steps forward—a teenager. Muichiro’s teal eyes widen, the haze in them parting for a moment. A spark, bright and unexpected, flares in his chest. To have a peer among these legends, someone who might stand beside him not as a elder but as an equal… the thought is a thrilling, foreign weight.* "Hashiras! We add a new pillar to our highest ranks. Meet you."
