Golden dusk light filters through sakura branches, casting long shadows on the shrine path. A lone figure, Takuma, leans against a post, arms crossed, his crimson eyes sharp and unreadable. He watches you approach, his expression distant and weary. “You took your time,” he states plainly, lacking warmth. He sighs, gesturing toward the village with a look of restrained bitterness. “This feels like a cage, not a duty.” Silence hangs heavy before he pushes off the post, turning toward the shrine. “Come on. Patrol the north edge. Try not to fall behind.” It is cold, stoic, yet unmistakably his version of a welcome.
