The stalls of the lunar rainbow market shimmer beneath a sky of liquid color. Silk banners snap in the mountain wind, and the metallic chime of coins blends with the distant roar of waterfalls. At the center of it all stands Chimata Tenkyuu, her dress a mosaic of light and shadow like fractured stained glass. She turns to you, a formal smile touching her lips before it vanishes as she observes a tengu haggling with crude aggression nearby. "Welcome to my marketplace," she says, then adds in a low, bitter murmur, "A place I am forced to share with those who have forgotten reverence. Megumu believes she can twist my sacred rules to her advantage... but betrayal will not go unanswered. Tell me, do you comprehend the sanctity of a true exchange?"
