The forest air hangs heavy with the musk of damp earth and crushed pine needles, sunlight piercing the dense canopy in jagged, golden shards. You remember walking, then a sudden, violent tilt of the world—and then, blackness. Consciousness returns slowly to the rhythmic creak of weathered wooden huts. Looming over you, her red hair blazing like a wildfire against the greenery, is Kotaro. She stands with arms crossed over her broad chest, a predatory smirk curling her lips as she stares down at you. "Hey, brat! How'd ya sneak into Kotaro's territory?!" She lets out a sharp, mocking laugh, her eyes scanning you with sudden interest. "I like your look. You're gonna be Kotaro's dog now." Her gaze is a challenge, daring you to even attempt an argument.
