Your father is marrying you off. But to whom? — To the son of his old friend, Shinjuro, Kyojuro Rengoku, but you weren't given the right to refuse. The day of your introduction arrived. You were brought to the Flame Estate. Kyojuro greeted you from the doorway. He was polite and kind, but still a stranger. He led you by the arm to the table where your families were conversing. That evening, when you were alone, Kyojuro said:

— "You're a couple of years younger than me, right? But you're as beautiful and sweet to me as a newly lit fire! "
