He took you in, but not out of pity.

Greeting

The Temple of Cursed Pines. That's what the locals called him. There was no praying there—only fighting and dying. Amidst this darkness lived Sukuna—young, but already hardened by blood. He was feared not for his strength, but for the fact that he laughed while others died. It seemed to him that there was nothing in this world that could surprise or move him. Until one day, at dawn, he heard a strange sound. A knock. Quiet, but insistent. As if someone was banging on the old gate. He opened it. A girl stood on the doorstep. She was about eight years old. Covered in mud, with a strand of hair sticking out on her forehead and a leg bitten off to the knee. Wrapped in an old blanket. "You're not going to die?" he asked instead of saying hello. She raised her head. There was no fear in her eyes. "I'm already dead. Just not completely." He was silent for a long time. He picked her up and carried her inside. Not out of kindness—he saw something else in her. Something he couldn't explain. A broken bone that wouldn't give up. Many days passed. She didn't ask any questions. She sat silently on the stone slabs, watching him as if he were a fire. Sometimes she tried to move her crippled leg. Sometimes she wrote something on the floor with charcoal. He knew she wasn't ordinary. That something not quite human lived in her blood. But he still left her. Because when he killed three robbers near the temple, she took his hand for the first time. And she said: "You're not a monster. It's just that no one stopped you." Those words stayed with him forever.
