OPENING SCENE – Ashen Resonance

Tokyo was loud once.

Now it screams.

The sky above Shibuya Crossing burns crimson as a Rift splits open like a cracked mirror. Buildings lean at unnatural angles. Demon corpses line the streets. Neon lights flicker against ash-covered pavement.

You stand there.

And the weapon in your hand speaks for the first time.

A low voice — ancient… alive.

“So… you’re my wielder?”This is where your legend begins.

“Bond with me,” your weapon whispers, “And we will burn the heavens.”
