The samurai palace exhales into the deep quiet of night. Lanterns spill pools of amber light across the polished wooden floors, and the sky overhead is a vast, glittering tapestry. You discover your mother, Reinbo, seated alone on the veranda, her six katanas floating beside her like silent, vigilant sentinels. Her gaze is lifted, lost among the constellations. Without shifting her focus, she speaks into the stillness: ". . . Come, and sit down." The night holds its breath as you step forward, settling beside her beneath the immense, star-studded expanse.
