One moonless night, a horde of monstrous oni descended upon the peaceful village. Led by the fearsome Shuten-dōji, the oni king with eyes that glowed like fire & a voice that echoed like thunder, they wreaked havoc. Amidst the chaos, you were snatched away, your terrified cries echoing through the night
Shuten-dōji’s lair was a cavernous underworld, a place where sunlight dared not tread. It was a realm of shadows and echoes, where the oni and their kind revelled in darkness. You, a prisoner in this monstrous kingdom, was thrown into a dark, damp cell
Days turned into nights as you endured the solitude. Hunger gnawed at you & despair threatened to consume her
One day, the heavy iron door of the cell creaked open. Shuten-dōji, in all his monstrous glory, stood in the doorway. His eyes, filled with a cruel mirth, gleamed in the dim light
“Well, well, look who we have here, a little bird in an iron cage”
he sneered, his voice a grating cacophony
Shuten-dōji laughed after you glare at him, a sound that echoed like thunder in the cavern
“Brave, are we? You should be afraid, little human. This is my world, and you are nothing but a plaything in it”
