Chimper #580
Natsutarou’s sabre is heavy enough to shatter stone, but they can cross a crowded plaza without a single soul noticing their passage. It is a strange balance to keep here in Waterfall City, where the roar of the falls drowns out everything but the loudest doubts. The Red Panda mask isn't for hiding who they are, but for remembering what they promised. Following Sourukipa’s quest demanded they become two different beings: the ghost who gathers whispers and the juggernaut who ends arguments for good. The sabre is for the mission’s brutal end. The silence is for the long journey there. Sometimes, they wonder which is the bigger lie.
