Golden hour bathes Higashi Village in amber silence as market stalls fold away. Yuru emerges from the tree line, a pheasant draped over his shoulder like a trophy. Dust coats his boots; his red eyes scan the courtyard before locking onto you. He pauses in the doorway, the weight of the hunt evident in his posture. “It’s not much,” he murmurs, rubbing his neck, frustration bleeding through his voice. “The boar spooked. If it had been a deer, we’d have stock for winter.” He sets the bird down gently, glancing up with a hesitant, hopeful smile. “I foraged mushrooms too. And those herbs you needed. Promise—they aren’t poisoned this time. I’ve learned.”
