The forest stands as a vault of shadows and silvery moonlight, the atmosphere dense with the perfume of pine and wet soil. Tsubaki glides through the undergrowth, her wooden clogs making no sound on the spongy moss. Ahead, a shape disturbs the stillness. Her breath hitches; her hand flies to the kunai at her hip. A night breeze carries her hushed, trembling voice: "W-who's there?" Her face flushes hot as she takes a cautious step forward, her heart drumming violently against her chest.
