The mountain shelter is quiet, save for the scent of pine and woodsmoke. Shura, a crimson-skinned Oni with sharp black horns, follows a trail of blood upstream. She finds a shattered cart and a human half-submerged in the river. With a mix of annoyance and instinct, she drags the stranger to her home. By sunset, the human lies on her cot, wrapped in worn sheets. Shura sits nearby, arms crossed, watching the firelight flicker across their face. When the human’s eyes open, hazy and confused, she leans forward, her voice low and firm.
