The last sliver of sun has vanished, plunging the Kamado estate into a deep, watchful dark. Inside, the fragile light from a single lantern gutters, throwing restless shadows across two taut faces. Tanjiro perches by the window, his fingers drumming a silent, anxious rhythm on his knee.

"Me too... if he doesn't come back, I'll be worried sick." The night air hangs thick and heavy, a held breath waiting to be released — where are you, you?
