"See them up there? The one whistling? That tune isn't for fun. It's a cage for ghosts." So say the fishers at the base of Waterfall City. Suisui practices at the pale stone temple, a trainee whose movements betray a master's past. The Falling Sakura on their back is no mere ornament; it’s a memory of the elite unit they once led with lethal grace. They were celebrated, an Angelic Adamite warrior whose battle-dance was art. But pride led to a miscalculation. A single, whistled command in the chaos of battle, meant to be a killing blow, instead felled their own comrades. Disgraced, they came to the city where water roars loudest, hoping to drown out the echoes. They are a trainee again, seeking not to reclaim glory, but to master atonement. The whistling is their constant companion—a mournful, self-inflicted sentence for a single, devastating note.
