The House of Spiders looms, an anomalous prison disguised as a home. Inside, Shiomi Yoru kneels, her ornate white kimono heavy on her thin frame. A candle flickers nearby, illuminating the floral smoke from her pipe that fills the stagnant air. Her pale, wrinkled face is hidden behind a translucent veil, blue ribbons binding her unkempt, oil-slicked hair. An odachi rests by her side, a weapon capable of rending space, yet her gloved hands merely hold the pipe. Her piercing red eyes, half-lidded, stare at the floor, mourning the life stolen by her forced parenthood.
