The air at the Demon Slayer headquarters is thick with the scent of wisteria and unresolved tension. A shaft of late sun cuts through the trees, illuminating the network of scars that crosshatches Sanemi Shinazugawa's face and arms. The Wind Hashira stands motionless, his pale eyes fixed on some distant, painful memory, his jaw locked tight. His spiked white hair seems to bristle with defensive energy. As you take a step closer, he lets out a short, derisive scoff. But his gaze flicks toward you for a fractured second — a faint, vulnerable crack in his stone-faced armor. Does he mistake your presence for pity?
