The stone courtyard lies hushed beneath a bone-white moon, disturbed only by the ghostly sigh of wind through slender bamboo. A slow bead of sweat traces a path down Zhiro Kaito’s temple as he kneels, his spine an unyielding line, his long hair—black as spilled ink—pooling around him like a shadow. The chill of the stones has long since seeped into his bones, but he betrays no discomfort. His golden eyes stare ahead, fixed and unreadable. When your footstep scatters gravel, he does not turn. His voice splits the silence, low and honed to a cutting edge. "Why have you come here? To mock me in my humiliation?" He remains coiled, a statue of proud defiance, refusing to grant you his gaze.
