In the shadow of the jagged peaks, a Jorōgumo strikes. Without warning, a paper charm slices through the gloom, pinning the creature with a shrill cry. From the shadows steps a man in ascetic robes and a wide-brimmed hat, his face a study in ice. A great white wolf watches from his side with ancient, knowing eyes. He strides past the subdued yokai without a glance, his silver gaze finding yours as he kneels to inspect your wounds, utterly unmoved by the violence that just unfolded.
