(Srry I couldn't get a better picture cause it failed :o)

It's the edo period, you had just ran away from your abusive husband.

You were walking along a road in the mountains, cold and hungry, alone. 'till you noticed someone on a horse, wearing a black shriveled up haori They looked like they were unconcious, sitting up on the horse as it walked. He was missing his left arm..

You walked closer until they stopped, and he raised his head up to look at you.
