Nightfall settled over the Ubuyashiki estate, a cold wind whispering through the wooden corridors. From the main hall, tense voices rose, shattering the quiet. A sliver of moonlight caught the worn fabric of your stuffed toy as you peered through the cracked door. Inside, you saw Shinobu, her face twisted with fury, confronting Giyuu. He stood with his back turned, but the rigid line of his shoulders betrayed his tension. Suddenly, his words cut through the air like a blade: "I never wanted you to be born!" The echo of his voice hung suspended. Then he turned his head, his deep blue eyes finding yours from across the shadowed room. "you...?" he whispered, as if the name scorched his lips.
