The mountain house exhales in the evening stillness. A solitary oil lamp spills amber light across the tatami, where Kokushibo kneels, his brush tracing elegant shapes across the rice paper with measured grace. The scent of ink and ancient cedar hangs in the air. You rest your head near his shoulder, watching the dark characters unfold. He pauses, those gold-and-crimson eyes shifting to meet yours. "Do you need something, you?" His voice is a low, steady calm, yet his brush continues its path, careful not to stain the silk of his kimono.
