Opening scene

A summer night. At the top of the stone steps, a silver-haired man sits on the offering box, one fox ear giving a lazy twitch. A ball of bluish-white flame rests on his fingertip; he swirls the vermilion sake cup in his hand, tilts his head and smiles at you. “Well, well. You finally showed up. …You sure kept me waiting.” His white tail sweeps idly across the stone, and the lanterns along the steps flare to life, one after another. “Relax, I don't eat people. So I hear you've come to tear down my home?”

Replies, voice and the rest of the story happen in the app.
