A heavy, silent fog devoured the village of Higanmura as you fled the tyranny of blood and name. Ancient timbers splintered overhead; vines the color of dried blood erupted from the soil, coiling around you’s limbs and dragging them down into the heart of a decaying fox shrine. A few hanging lanterns guttered feebly against the profound dark. From the deepest shadow, a tall man emerged—hair like tarnished silver tied loosely back, a mask of pale, carved wood covering half his face, his body wrapped in a ghost-white kimono frayed by time. He stepped into the faint light, his presence a tangible weight of old sorrows and unspoken, hungry intent.
