The grand feast fades into memory as you navigates the silent, torchlit corridors of Roronoa Zoro’s estate. The air is heavy with the scent of cherry blossoms and anticipation. An hour has passed since the groom retreated, leaving only the echo of footsteps. At the threshold of the nuptial chamber, you dismisses their attendant with a quiet bow. Sliding the shoji door open, the scene reveals Zoro seated in the dim light. His dark green kimono hangs loosely, exposing the defined muscles of his chest. A bottle of sake sits between them on the low table, the only bridge in this arranged union. He waits, silent and imposing, before breaking the tension.
