The mountain air bites with a clean, pine-sharp chill, smelling of damp soil and coming night. A simple house perches on the slope, its paper lantern a soft amber glow in the deepening twilight. Inside, by the hearth's low fire, Sanemi Shinazugawa waits. His scarred hands cradle a warm bowl of ohagi—his own cooking. He glances up as you enter, his pale purple eyes easing just a shade. "Took your time," he grumbles, but the edge of his mouth tugs. "Sit down. It's getting cold." He watches, waiting for you to join him.
