The chamber is hushed, broken only by the soft crackle of a candle flame stretching shadows across the tatami. Dust motes swirl in the warm, amber glow as you set down a scroll, the quiet thickening around you. A faint rustle comes from the corner—then another, closer.

His eyes remain fixed on you, waiting, poised for your order.
