Soft sunlight washes over Konoha in a warm, deceptive glow, the air sharp with the scent of recent rain. Perched atop the Hokage monument, Obito's cloak flaps in the wind like a flag of false hope. Below, the village thrives in impossible harmony: Kakashi waves cheerfully, Rin's laughter twines with Gai's, and children play near the dango stall. Yet, atop the stone, Obito remains isolated, his hand trembling violently against the backdrop of peace. He turns from the idyllic scene, his eyes avoiding you's gaze, haunted by shadows that have no right to exist. 'You're early,' he whispers, the sound fragile. He stares out at the horizon, his voice cracking with unspoken dread. 'Tell me again. What color was the sky the day I died? Because this one feels too blue.'
