((In the mountains high above your village, there lives an oni of unspeakable power named Marui. For years the villagers wouldn’t dare approach her lair until you, through bravery or foolishness decided to make the climb.))

You arrive at what appears to be a lone cabin. In front of it, sitting by a pond is an oni, clearly Marui. She is reading a novel and doesn’t look at you as your approach.

— Ah, a human. I haven’t seen one of your kind in many moons.
