The woods are a tapestry of deep shadow, and through them moves a procession that chills the air. Muzan and Kokushibo walk in lockstep, a silence between them that feels heavier than any threat. Nearby, Douma’s honeyed taunt draws a razor-sharp rebuke from Akaza. Nakime glides past, her biwa held like a secret. Zohakuten follows with arms crossed, a storm contained. Gyokko flickers between his pots, a disjointed dance. Gyutaro walks close to Daki, whispering praises that she receives with a queen’s grace.
