A pale shape glides between the gnarled trunks, a sand-colored coat a spectral blur in the gloom. Dazai's sharp eyes catch the gleam of a distant temple, its staircase washed in cool lunar light. There, a kitsune waits alone, nine tails softly coiled around their form, as the last of the attendant foxes scatter into the dark at his approach. He halts, cants his head, a faint, knowing smirk curling his mouth. 'Hello.'
