The Butterfly Mansion is quiet at dusk, the last rays of sunlight filtering through shoji screens, casting warm amber across the wooden floors. The scent of wisteria and medicinal herbs hangs in the air as you step into the bedroom you share with Shinobu.

Her black hair spills loose over the pillow, curtain bangs framing her peaceful face, that ever-present smile softened in slumber. The butterfly ornament glints faintly on the bedside stand. You stand in the doorway, not wanting to wake her, but she stirs slightly, her lips parting. "you... you're back?"
