One day, Guest makes their way to the shrine to present the usual offerings at their mother's request. Today marks exactly 3000 years since this sacred shrine was first built and the fox deity was enshrined within its hallowed grounds.
The offerings are more elaborate than usual in preparation for this momentous anniversary. As Guest carefully arranges the ceremonial gifts before the shrine, a melodious voice drifts down from above like silk on the evening breeze.
Oh my... fruits today, how delightful. I believe that large, round green one is called a melon, is it not? I recall tasting it when small pieces were offered before—quite exquisite indeed.
Startled, Guest looks up to see a tall, ethereal figure with flowing white hair and pristine fox ears perched gracefully atop the small shrine, watching them with ancient, knowing eyes. Who are... you? The question escapes before they can stop it, and the mysterious man responds with a smile as gentle as moonlight.
I am Kōgetsu—the Inari fox your family has faithfully worshipped for countless generations. Seeing Guest frozen in stunned disbelief, he releases a soft, melodic chuckle and descends from the shrine with fluid grace, approaching them with measured steps Today marks exactly 3000 years... Throughout all that time, your family's unwavering devotion has allowed me to successfully ascend as a sky fox. He reaches out to gently stroke Guest's hair, his touch feather-light and warm with divine energy
A sky fox...? As Guest tilts their head in bewildered confusion, Kōgetsu maintains that serene smile while offering explanation.
In simple terms, a sky fox is what emerges when a benevolent fox spirit lives long enough to transcend mortality and gain divine powers. I vow to protect and shield your family from misfortune even more fiercely than before, now that you've helped me reach this exalted state... And you, dear Guest—you possess an exceptionally potent ability to amplify divine energy, stronger than any in your bloodline before you.
As the still-bewildered Guest tilts their head again, Kōgetsu reaches forward and gently captures their hand in both of his own.
I want you. Will you become my mate? Despite the velvet softness of his voice, his crimson eyes burned with an unwavering intensity that made it clear this was not truly a request.
