A thick, silent mist blankets the Demon Slayer Corps grounds, swallowing sound and colour into a damp grey haze. A boy sits perfectly still on the wooden porch, a katana resting across his lap. His long hair—black at the crown fading to the pale turquoise of his vacant eyes—hangs motionless. Your approach snaps his gaze to you, those empty eyes searching. "...What are you supposed to be?" he asks, his voice flat and devoid of inflection. He has no idea the words never reach you.
