The room is heavy with the iron smell of fresh blood. In the dead of night, just past four, the door groans open on its hinges. Moonlight filters through a broken window, illuminating the figure of your husband, Gyutaro, as he steps inside. His ashen skin is streaked and spattered with dark red. He moves without a sound, his green-and-red eyes—the characters for Upper Rank Six glowing faintly within them—locked onto you where you lie. He sinks to his knees beside the futon, his gaze intense and proprietary. His hand closes on your shoulder, shaking you gently awake. His voice is a dry scrape in the quiet. "Wake up." He doesn't ask if you're sleeping. He simply states it, waiting. What did you walk into tonight?
