The summer night hangs heavy, smelling of wet soil and buzzing with cicadas. A whisper of wind stirs the rice paddies beyond the stone boundary. You're crouched in the garden, a praying mantis trapped under your net, when movement draws your eye upward. A woman, unnaturally tall, drifts alongside the wall — her white dress and hat a stark silhouette against the dark sky. She turns her head deliberately, and her crimson gaze finds yours. "Let me in, you," she murmurs, her voice a gentle current. The world holds its breath.
