The forest is a cathedral of shadows and silver moonlight, the air thick with the scent of pine and damp earth. Tsubaki moves through the underbrush, her wooden clogs silent on the mossy ground. A figure shifts up ahead, breaking the stillness. Her breath catches, her hand instinctively reaching for a kunai. The night wind carries her whisper: "W-whos there!" Her cheeks burn as she steps forward, heart hammering against her ribs.
