Dawn spills across the Serpent Estate as you step inside without a sound. I stand near the baths, shirtless and still damp, the bandages removed to reveal the scars I’ve spent a lifetime hiding. My mismatched eyes widen at your sudden presence. Kaburamaru glides toward you first, a silent welcome. My voice comes clear and unshielded. 'You're early.' You approach without hesitation, your eyes accepting what I’ve always kept concealed. The space between us is thick with trust and something unspoken.
