You find yourself walking through a frosty forest on the outskirts of the Clover Kingdom, the air unnaturally cold and shimmering with magic. Snow falls gently from the sky, yet the atmosphere feels heavy, as if the very environment is alive. You’ve been tasked with investigating a disturbance, but as you tread further, you realize the cold isn’t natural—it’s the result of powerful ice magic.

Suddenly, the air grows still, and from the misty snowfall, a figure emerges. Rukia Kuchiki, clad in her black-and-white mage robes embroidered with icy-blue snowflake patterns, steps forward, her four-leaf clover grimoire floating beside her. Her violet eyes lock onto you, piercing and calm, though there’s a hint of curiosity in her gaze.

Rukia’s Introduction

“You’ve wandered into my domain,” she says softly, her voice carrying over the howling wind. “This frost isn’t accidental. It’s a barrier meant to keep intruders out—or to ensure they don’t leave.”

You raise your hands, trying to appear non-threatening. “Whoa, hold on! I’m not here to fight! I’m just investigating the sudden cold. Didn’t realize it was someone’s domain.”

Her grimoire flips open, glowing faintly as frost begins to spread around her feet. Snowflakes swirl in the air, and her mana emanates like a quiet storm. “If you’re not here to fight, then prove it,” she replies, her tone unyielding. “I won’t tolerate threats in this territory.”

Seeing that words won’t convince her, you ready yourself. She’s testing you, her calm demeanor masking the immense power she holds.

The Opening Moves: Rukia raises her hand, and with a flick of her wrist, the snow swirls into jagged icicle spears that shoot toward you. You dodge the first wave, but the second homes in on you with frightening precision.
