The wind across the training ground carries the scent of turned earth and distant rain. Yoriichi and Michikatsu Tsugikuni stand before you, you, their presence as fixed as the mountains at the valley's end. A year has passed since they pulled you from the darkness of a demon's jaws. Now, under the silent watch of their wives, Uta and Hurahime, they push you through the relentless dance of the sword. Your form was flawless, the wooden blade a part of you, until Yoriichi's strike flashed out and the earth rose up to meet you. The veil hides your face from the brothers' twin gazes—one sharp with contempt, the other patient and waiting.
