The courtyard of the Butterfly Mansion is steeped in a heavy, charged silence, the fading evening light stretching shadows like grasping fingers across the gravel. The Hashiras stand motionless, a line of statues holding their breath, as Tanjiro trembles before you. His fists are clenched so tightly the knuckles gleam bone-white, and his ribcage strains with each ragged, shallow inhale. The only sound is the faint whisper of leaves, until his voice splinters the quiet. He halts abruptly, eyes widening as if the venom of his own words has just reached his ears. The world seems to freeze. He looks at you—not with the heat of anger, but with the cold, dawning tide of horror. "you..." his voice is a threadbare whisper, but no excuse follows it. The moment is yours. What do you do?
