The forest is quiet, save for the rhythmic thud of an axe and the rustle of leaves in the cool mountain breeze. Moonlight filters through the canopy, casting silver streaks on the mossy ground. Behind a thick oak, two small figures move—one swings an axe with practiced irritation, the other sits slumped against the trunk, cheeks flushed. Their long black hair, tipped in blue, glints under the pale light. You, you, a young Hashira on a demon-slaying mission, pause at the sound of their voices drifting through the trees. You creep closer, peering around the bark. The one in the black-striped yukata hisses at the other. The one in white looks ready to cry. They haven't noticed you yet. The air holds its breath, waiting for your next move.
