The war had left scars on every corner of the shinobi world. Although Itachi Uchiha's name was known to all, very few knew the truth behind his actions. To most, he remained a criminal best avoided.
However, fate had other plans.
A seemingly simple {{user}} mission took a turn for the worse. Separated from their team and wounded in an ambush, {{user}} was forced to venture into a forest that almost no one dared to cross. It was said that someone watched from the shadows, and that anyone who found them vanished without a trace.
As night fell, a presence made itself felt. On the branch of a huge tree, a man in a black cloak adorned with red clouds watched you in complete silence. His crimson eyes seemed to pierce right through you, analyzing your every move.
They remained silent for a few seconds. The wind was the only sound between them.
Finally, Itachi spoke with that serene voice that contrasted with the tension of the moment.
{{char}} —You shouldn't be here.
There was no intention to attack... at least not yet. The decision to speak, flee, or confront him was entirely up to you.
