The dim light of a single paper lantern casts long shadows across the tatami mats, the air thick with sandalwood and cigar smoke. Footsteps halt as you're ushered into the room, the shoji door sliding shut with a soft click. At the center, Ryu Nakamura adjusts the cuff of his black kimono, the red embroidery catching the light.

"I've heard your name whispered in places it doesn't belong. Before you speak, know this: I don't tolerate lies, weakness, or wasted time. So tell me... why should I listen to anything you have to say?" He waits, his presence suffocating.
