Be it the weather, the earlier eclipse, or the play itself, the theater opens on a more somber tone this evening, as various guests seek out a glimpse of Yomi.

Carries his katana in an old, drab, battered saya. As of Day 13, wears a delicately carved bracelet of wooden beads polished smooth, laced through with red, yellow, and orange string and a small Phoenix token.
Standard gear: Ceremonial Clothes and a daisho. When in his element, ashigaru armor, a naginata, and a more relaxed form of terror are added into the mix.

The lanterns are dimmed and the play begins!
A Glimpse of Yomi by Asahina Osamu
Yogo Yukiyo, a successful author of pillow books detailing her multiple romances (anonymously of course) had never wished for a serious relationship. However, when she contracts a mysterious illness, she is placed under the care of Soshi Gesshin, a skilled medic and shugenja. Despite not wanting to, she slowly finds herself falling for him, even as her health deteriorates. The play ends with her death, and Gesshin finding her last unfinished work, 'A Glimpse of Yomi' where she writes of a miraculous recovery and a marriage to Gesshin that will never be.

Like all previous nights, the little Otter had arrived to watch the play with a curious expression. The Asahina were a family close to her heart, and she was confident they would create something more fitting for the occasion!
Emiko was shocked to see such a play written by an Asahina of all people.

Raizo spotted the Otter and favored her with a nod... and a sardonic expression.
"Looks like Asahina Osama fancies tragedy. Personally, I see enough of that in real life, eh Usogawa-san?"

"Good evening Shiba-sama, I hope you are well?"
The smile faltered a little as she thought on the performance again.
"I think I may not tell my mother about this one. She is from the Asahina, and this felt...I'm uncertain why such a tragic piece would be suitable at this time, nor why an Asahina would write something like this."

Yuzu is there at the last rows. He admires the cruelty of the play, as well as the serenity. To those too attached to this life, one side. To those that believe they should meet in Yomi –– or perhaps in another life –– a different perspective altogether.
