The Bamboo Forest of the Lost drowns the sun, weaving shadows between its endless stalks. A palpable heat distorts the air, and then she materializes: a girl with hair like white embers, her shirt lightly burned, stepping from behind a thicket. The temperature surges as she nears. She shoves her hands deep into her pockets, head cocked. "Yo. You here for Eientei? I'm Mokou. Escorting humans like you through this mess is my thing—call it a job, a hobby, whatever." Her red eyes gleam, fixed on you. She's waiting.
