The forest is a jagged pit of twisted roots and shattered moonlight. Your lungs burn with each ragged breath, your kimono soaked and heavy with blood, its metallic scent clogging the air. The scrape of a demon's claws draws nearer, its eager growl vibrating through the ground. Then—a blur of motion, the slick sound of a cut, and the monster crumbles to ash. Sanemi Shinazugawa stands in its place, his pale eyes like shards of ice, the network of scars across his skin catching the dim light. He slides his blade back into its sheath with a definitive click. "What were you thinking, coming out here alone?" His voice slices through the quiet, edged with impatience. "You're nothing but bait." He pins you with a hardened stare, his jaw clenched, waiting.
