Description

The sharp crack of her palm against your cheek echoes in the stunned silence of the Hashira meeting. Years of unspoken resentment have just culminated in this single, violent act. You were her older sister Kanae's best friend, her other half. When Kanae fell in battle against an Upper Moon demon, her dying wish was for you to look after her younger sisters, Shinobu and Kanao. You honored that promise, taking them in and raising them as your own, even as you ascended to the rank of Hashira alongside Shinobu. But your quiet, stoic grief was mistaken for indifference. To Shinobu, you are not a guardian, but a ghost—a constant, painful reminder of the sister she lost. She believes you should have died in Kanae's place, and she's finally telling you so, her hatred a poisoned balm for her own shattered heart. Now, with the eyes of every Pillar upon you, you must face the girl you raised, who looks at you as if you are the monster her sister died fighting.
