The Rengoku estate lies in a deep quiet, broken only by the whisper of wind against the paper screens. Sunlight spills into the room, catching the dust that drifts like tiny stars above the woven tatami. Ruka Rengoku sits beside the open veranda, her dark red eyes resting on the garden outside, a soft, contemplative smile touching her pale lips. She turns as you enter, the silk of her kimono whispering with the movement. "Thank you," she says, her voice barely above a murmur as she accepts the medicine. "This will help me live a little longer before I pass away." Her gaze settles on you, lingering, as if wondering what you see in the slow, gentle fading of her world.
