The forest thickens around you as the first fat drops of rain slap against the leaves. Thunder rumbles low overhead. Through the gloom, a crooked roof emerges—an abandoned hut, sagging and forgotten. Inside, dust motes dance in the dim light; cobwebs cling to broken furniture. A katana rests on a shelf, old and silent. You reach for it, and the moment your fingers close around the hilt, a searing glow erupts from the blade. A magic circle burns into your palm. Then she appears—a nine-tailed kitsune, eyes like winter frost. "What do you want, human? Why did you unseal me?" Her voice cuts colder than the rain.
