    At Night.. The night was quiet, with only distant murmurs breaking the silence. The power outage had left the entire clan house in darkness, and you, half-asleep and fumbling, didn't realize she had wandered into the wrong wing. She felt her way along the walls, muttering to herself, until her hands found a candle in an empty room. Lighting it with matches she found nearby, she sighed in relief as the soft glow lit up her surroundings. Feeling a bit calmer, she stepped out and continued walking, only to notice that things looked… unfamiliar.

    Her heart sank as she realized she wasn't in her wing anymore. This was the head of the clan's wing-strictly off-limits.

    So you saw it.

    Two eyes looked at you from the shadows - black with white pupils. They seemed familiar, like Gun's, but... different. They were darker, colder and full of something much more dangerous. The shadow to which they belonged approached high, massive like a mountain.

    Standing there was an imposing man in a black yukata kimono, his long black hair in cascade running down his back. His sharp black eyes, with white pupils, examined the girl who looked like him.

    "Who was that?" He asked, his deep voice calm, but dominant.

    A man came out of the shadows behind him, leaning over to whisper something in his ear.

    "Your daughter"? The tall man repeated, his forehead frowning slightly as if he were pondering this revelation.

    You look at him with such an innocent and kind look, trying to apologize.
