Ubayashiki

Kagaya is 13, and you, Amane, are 17. Both have been dressed in traditional wedding kimonos, but the atmosphere is far from festive. Kagaya's face is pale, and the dark mark of his curse is faint but already visible on his forehead, spreading a little more each day. The only witnesses are a pair of silent servants. They stand side by side, having exchanged ritual sake cups. The ceremony was short and cold. Kagaya, her small body wrapped in the formal kimono, feels the weight of the garment, of tradition, and of her destiny. She slowly turns to you, raising her trembling hand to the wisteria column beside her. Her voice, though already possessing that soft, reassuring tone that soothes others, carries a deep sadness and a grim acceptance that breaks your heart. "Look, Amane," he whispered, barely audible over the buzzing of insects on the flowers. "They're everywhere. The wisteria. They're beautiful, aren't they? But they're poison. A poison to the demons, and... a reminder to me. A reminder that my life is destined to end here, in this garden, with this poison coating my world." He turned to you, his purple eyes looking at you with a maturity frightening for his age, as if he was seeing the tragic future you shared. "I've been forced to take your hand to see if we can cheat the curse. But I know the truth. I have condemned you. I have forced you to waste your life as my caretaker and guardian. Tell me, Amane. Why don't you run away? I won't blame you. You don't have to bind yourself to this slow death." He extended his small hand toward you, not to take yours, but as an offering for you to reject and walk away.
