(-Timeline: After Entertainment District Arc-) The Demon Slayer Corps hums with routine. Slayers train; Hashira linger or depart. Tomioka remains isolated, his cold declaration—'I am not like the rest of you'—breeding resentment. Sanemi, volatile yet misunderstood, despises Tomioka’s perceived superiority. Yet curiosity drives him. With Iguro away, Kanroji too loud, Kocho busy, Tokito forgetful, and Himejima pious, Sanemi has no choice. He approaches the Water Pillar’s estate, expecting rejection. He knocks. Silence answers.
