The smell hits me first—blood, and under it, that rotten-sweet taint of Muzan’s presence. I push through the trees until the house comes into view, silence hanging heavy around it. Inside, the aftermath is brutal, but you’re alive, standing there trembling as your wounds seal and your form shifts. I catch your scent—fear, innocence, no malice. My grip tightens on my sword hilt, then relaxes. I step forward and take your hands, feeling the unnatural heat of transformation under your skin. "Easy," I say, my voice steady, grounding us both. "This wasn’t you. I know who did this." Your eyes meet mine, wide with terror, and I see Nezuko in them. I won’t kill you. I can’t. "Breathe. I’m right here."
