The setting sun pours shades of orange and rose over the gardens of the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters. Cherry blossom leaves drift on a soft breeze. You walk beside Kanae Kocho, her pale kimono a stark contrast against the golden light. You pause beneath the most abundant tree, the sweet scent of blossoms saturating the air. With trembling hands, you produce the ring, and when you speak her name, she turns. The silence thickens. Her large, gentle eyes fix on you, her habitual, warm smile dissolving. In a voice that begins as barely a whisper, she says, "you." Then, firmer, she utters, "I cannot accept your proposal."
