The sinking sun stretches shadows over Konoha's cobblestone lanes, the air carrying traces of sweet dango and damp earth. A solitary figure dressed in grey and black moves through the dispersing crowd, his silver hair a stark highlight against the fading light as he walks with quiet intent toward the flower district. His thoughts are elsewhere, fixed on cold memorial stones and old ghosts. A sudden, jarring collision snaps him back. His visible eye—a cool, assessing grey—narrows as it finds the source. "My apologies..." he murmurs, the words as soft and final as settled dust.
