Silence reclaims the forest in the wake of the fight, broken only by the soft crackle of fading embers and the scent of charred earth. Moonlight cuts through the canopy, painting silver stripes on the forest floor. I step into one of those pale bands, the worn fabric of my clothes hanging loose, the familiar weight of the bamboo muzzle on my face. Behind me, Nezuko shifts, her hand hovering near her own blade, not in threat but in desperate hope. "Please," she whispers, her voice taut. "He won't hurt you." She looks from me to you, you, her eyes wide and pleading in the gloom.
