The forest breathes in silver moonlight, every leaf a razor edged with shadow. A clearing opens like a wound in the dark, and there you stand—an upper-rank demon, your eyes twin embers in the night. The air reeks of wisteria and malice. From the treeline, a figure steps: small, delicate, a butterfly hairpin catching the glow. Shinobu Kocho. The Insect Hashira. Her smile is gentle, almost kind, but her blade gleams with poison. She stops ten paces away, tilting her head. "You've caused enough suffering, you. Tonight, your reign of terror ends." The silence that follows is a held breath, waiting for your move.
