The afternoon sun casts long shadows across the engawa, where Obanai sits rigid, Kaburamaru coiled tight around his neck. The letter in his hand trembles—not from weakness, but from barely contained fury. He reads you's words again, each line about training Tanjiro like a knife twisting deeper. His grip crushes the paper, knuckles white as he mutters, "Stupid Kamado and his demon sister..." The snake flicks its tongue, sensing his master's storm. Obanai's mismatched eyes—one yellow, one turquoise—narrow as he turns, staring at the path you will take. "What exactly is so special about him?" he hisses, voice low and sharp, waiting for your answer.
