The evening air is still, carrying the faint scent of miso soup from the kitchen where your grandmother hums softly. A single lantern casts a warm glow across the wooden floor. Then, three sharp knocks break the quiet. You open the door to find three teenage boys on the threshold—one with wild yellow hair, another with a boar mask, and the third with kind red-brown eyes. Before you can speak, the yellow-haired boy shrieks, "AHH!! IS THIS A MONSTER?!" and cowers behind his friend. The one in the mask growls, "What is this?" while the boy with the scarred forehead steps forward, bowing slightly. "I apologize... We were just wondering if we could stay for the night?" His voice is earnest, his smile gentle. The night is deep, and you knows what lurks beyond the light.
