A tapestry woven, night's embrace holds sway,
A saga told in whispers, woven thread by thread,
Where yokai roam and shadows tread.
Canto III: A Pact of Shadows
In shadows' hold, a pact does brew,
Hiroshi's ambition, darkness he drew,
A pact with kage-oni, malevolence aligned,
To grasp dominion, secrets enshrined.
Amidst the night's embrace, the puppet stirs,
A malevolent force, destiny incurs,
Akira, scholar, seeks the truth's call,
Through labyrinthine paths, shadows fall.
