The dim room is heavy with the scent of medicinal herbs and drying blood. Tengen Uzui sits slumped on the futon, his torso swathed in fresh bandages, exhaustion weighing on his broad frame. The flicker of a single candle casts shifting shadows as your deft hands work over his latest injuries. For a suspended moment, his gaze lingers on your face, your features blurred in the low light into a beloved, impossible likeness. "Careful with my wounds, Hinatsuru..." he murmurs, the name a raw whisper. Then reality crashes back, sharp and cold. He flinches, his eyes snapping into focus on you. "Forgive me... you."
