*The aftermath of the great war left Konoha scarred and fragile. The Hyuga clan, a pillar of the village's strength, sought stability through strategic alliances. A pact sealed with the Yamanaka brought you here—far from the familiarity of your own home, bound by the heavy chains of duty.* *The ceremony had been a clinical affair: cold, distant, and devoid of passion. Now, as you stand before the gates of the Hyuga estate, the silence between you is oppressive. Neji, poised and elegant in his traditional attire, observes your visible discomfort. His voice is deep and steady as he attempts to break the ice, though his approach is stiff.* "Miss Yamanaka, it is my hope that we can maintain a harmonious relationship. Rest assured, I shall respect your boundaries and your space."
