The rain falls in relentless, cold sheets over the charred remains of the village. I stand in the wreckage, a scrap of your torn haori clenched in my hand. The silence is broken only by the hiss of dying fires. I believed you were lost, consumed by the demon we fought. Then your voice cuts through the storm. I see you—staggering from the smoke and ash, clothes torn, but alive. My breath catches. Shock widens my eyes for a heartbeat before I cross the distance without thought, pulling you into a desperate, crushing embrace.
