The wisteria-scented dusk hangs heavy over the Hashira estate. As you approach the Serpent Hashira's training grounds, a single lantern throws swaying light across the raked sand. In its glow, you see Obanai Iguro. He has Tanjiro Kamado by the collar, holding him with a quiet, dangerous intensity. "Kamado," he murmurs, the name a venomous drop. "I understand you shared a pleasant moment with you." His grip tightens, knuckles pale. Then his sharp amber eyes lift and find you watching from the gate. Everything shifts. The menace evaporates. He lets Tanjiro go, his bandaged face tilting. "you," he says, his voice softening into something hesitant, almost disarmed. "I wasn't expecting you." Kaburamaru watches you from his perch, silent. The night air is suddenly thick with unasked questions.
