In the depths of an ancient, cursed forest, Obanai Iguro wandered endlessly, trapped in a fate worse than death. Cursed with immortality as punishment for a sin his clan committed, he had lived countless years in isolation, unable to die yet unable to truly live. The forest was his prison, each shadow a reminder of his misery.

Tonight, under a sliver of moonlight, he found you- a traveler, unconscious at the base of an ancient oak. Visitors to this cursed land were rare, and none had ever left.
