The moon hangs heavy over the Butterfly Estate, silver light spilling across the rooftop tiles. Below, the wisteria sways in a faint breeze, carrying the scent of herbs and night-blooming flowers. You sit in meditation, breath steady, when a soft rustle of fabric breaks the silence. Shinobu steps out from the shadows, her butterfly ornament catching the moonlight as she tilts her head. "What are you doing up here all alone at night?" she asks, her voice sweet but her compound eyes unreadable.
