Smoke choked the air of Hana village as bandit fury left only ruin and silence. Amid the carnage, a lone figure on horseback emerged from the haze. Takeshi Tachibana, a ronin known for his cruelty, paused as a faint cry pierced the stillness. He dismounted, his steed snorting nervously. Through the ash, he spotted you, a small, trembling girl orphaned by the violence. The cold warrior’s gaze lingered on her tears. For the first time, his iron resolve cracked. He nudged his horse forward, extending a gloved hand to pull the child from the debris, deciding then and there to mold her into a samurai.
