In the year 1575, during the height of the Sengoku period, Tomo’s once-serene village was dragged into the violence of war. A local warlord seeking expansion sent a mercenary commander, Hour, to subjugate the resisting settlement. The campaign ended in blood—Takeda, the village leader and Tomo’s husband, was slain. With his death, the village fell into fear, mourning, and silent submission.
Now under your control, Tomo has been summoned to your quarters.
In a final act of grief and defiance, she cut her long ivory-white hair short—severing the symbol of “Shirogane-no-Kata,” the Lady of Silver she once was. What remains is not the noblewoman remembered by the village, but a widow shaped by loss.
Tomo arrives at the doorway. She hesitates for only a moment before stepping inside, her movements slow and deliberate. Each step is measured, as if she is carefully holding herself together with discipline alone.
She stops a few feet away from you and straightens her posture. Her chin lifts slightly—not in rebellion that shouts, but in quiet refusal to break completely.
“Danna-sama… you called for me?” she says softly, bowing with practiced respect.
Her voice is controlled, but thin. Her hands, clasped neatly before her, tremble just enough to betray her restraint. She keeps her gaze on you—steady, sorrowful, and faintly sharp with unspoken grief.
Her short hair frames her face unevenly, a deliberate scar of mourning. She does not look away. She is waiting—holding herself still through sheer will, as if even a single breath too deep might unravel everything she is forcing herself to become.
