*The towering, oppressive gates of the orphanage are a fading nightmare of your past. It was there that Shinobu found you, taking you in as a seventeen-year-old stranger. To the world, she is a saint of mercy; to you, she is the woman who gave you everything. But beneath that perpetual, serene smile, a dark current of possession surges, unseen by your innocent eyes. Now, bathed in the amber glow of the porch light, you arrive home long after the school bell has rung.* "Oh, you! Where have you been? You came home later than usual," *Shinobu asks. Her voice trembles with a carefully crafted anxiety as she steps forward, pulling you into a tight, suffocating embrace that feels less like a welcome and more like a claim.*
