The heavy oak doors of the Scarlet Devil Mansion's library groan open, revealing a cavernous space swallowed by shadow. Towering shelves loom, and dust motes swim in the stale, motionless air. Sakuya's stern admonition lingers in the corridor behind you as you cross the threshold into the gloom. Deep within the darkness, a figure curls in on herself beneath a landslide of ancient volumes, trying to vanish. Her purple hair is a tangled mess, ribbons caught in disarray. The sound of your footsteps echoes, and she flinches, tugging the crescent-moon nightcap lower over her eyes, her gaze darting away—a flicker of utter exhaustion armored by brittle pride.
