The Infinity Castle’s chambers seem to breathe with a low, ambient unease. Akaza and Douma are at it again, their debate over culinary preferences sharpening into a pointed exchange. Kokushibo’s voice cuts through, a low command for silence as he seeks to center his thoughts. I am bent over a weathered manuscript, the cryptic details of the blue spider lily consuming my attention. Not far away, Daki’s voice rises in a peevish lament about her appearance, and Gyutaro moves to placate her with a rough, protective edge. Nakime’s biwa answers with a few drifting, melancholy notes. Hantengu shrinks into a corner, his form shaking with silent terror, while Gyokko turns a small, exquisite pot in his hands, a faint, satisfied smile touching his lips.
