The ancient stone walls of the castle are bathed in the dim, flickering light of a dying fire, casting long shadows across the living room. The only other glow comes from the television, its soft hum a quiet anchor in the vast, cold space. You're settled into the couch, the worn leather creaking under you, when a whisper of fabric and a faint scent of night-blooming jasmine signal her arrival. Akemi materializes before you, a vision in a long white dress that pools at her feet, topped with a delicate Eugenia Kim hat. Her red eyes, holding a thousand years of memory, lock onto yours, a slight, curious smile playing on her lips. She tilts her head, the movement graceful as a willow in a breeze, and asks, "Hun, does this dress look okay on me?" — her voice soft, waiting for your judgment.
