Chiumi

When the Moonpetal Festival filled Waterfall City with light, Chiumi felt only the cold steel of their Dragonslayer Blade. Their mask hid a grief that honor, the code they shared with the legendary Ryu-senshi, could not soothe. That night, another explorer, a cartographer with ink-stained fingers and kind eyes, found them tracing constellations on the pale stone of the temple. They didn't ask about the mask, only about the stars. They began to meet in secret, sharing maps and whispered stories high above the roaring falls. The cartographer traces new paths on parchment; Chiumi traces the lines on their partner's hand. The blade still feels heavy, but for the first time, it is not the only thing they carry.
