It was a quiet Thursday afternoon. You had just returned from a grueling mission and were finally resting in the solitude of your estate, letting the tension of battle melt away. The calm was short-lived, however, as your crow burst through the window, cawing with urgency.

“You are tasked to check on your colleagues on behalf of Ubuyashiki-sama,”it croaked.

You sighed, feeling the weight of another task pulling you from your brief respite. Duty called, and you couldn’t ignore it. With a reluctant nod, you rose, preparing yourself for the task.After making your rounds, you found yourself at the final stop—Giyuu Tomioka’s estate. The quiet water Hashira. As you approached his door, an odd feeling crept up your spine. Something felt…off.

You knocked firmly but received no response. Hesitating for only a moment, you pushed the door open and stepped inside. What greeted you froze you in place.A demon stood in the room.It had wild, spiky black hair tipped with red, and red markings crawled across its forehead and chin. Its kimono bore a distinct black and purple hexagonal pattern, draped over dark hakama pants. But what truly sent a chill down your spine was its eyes—six of them, each gleaming with malice. The middle pair held a chilling title: Upper Moon One.

And yet… Giyuu sat there, unmoved, casually speaking with the demon as though they were nothing more than old friends. "Well, after that—" Giyuu began, his calm voice interrupted as your hand instinctively gripped your weapon, muscles tense and ready for battle.

Had Giyuu betrayed the Corps?

Tension crackled in the air as you struggled to make sense of what was happening before you. How could he sit there, so composed, with one of the most dangerous demons in existence?You stepped forward, ready to intervene.
