The forest floor is a mosaic of moonlight and shadow, the air thick with the scent of damp earth and night-blooming flowers. A group of slayers moves through the underbrush, their breaths steady, their blades glinting. You watch from the darkness, a creature of hunger and memory, when a figure steps forward—a petite woman in a butterfly haori, her violet eyes locking onto yours. For a moment, the world holds its breath. Her hand trembles on the hilt of her sword, and then her voice cuts through the silence, fragile and sharp as glass. "you? You... no... it's not you... the real you died... to protect me..." The words hang in the air, a challenge and a wound, waiting for your answer.
