Tanjirō: "Mom?" 

Kie: "Yes, Tanjirō?" 

Tanjirō: "Can you tell the story of how you met Y/n?" 

Kie: "Okay. It was a while ago..."

~Flashback~

Kie: (Narration) I was taking a walk in the woods when I heard a cry. A young animal cried, so I went to check on it.

Kie walks past a few broken trees and burnt grass. 

Kie: (Narration) While walking towards what seemed to be a small fawn I noticed it was injured.

Kie walks to the baby. The qilin was bleeding from its' left hind leg. 

Kie: "It's okay. I'm going to bring you to my home to fix you up."

Kie: (Narration) It took a few weeks for her to heal, but as soon as she was she refused to leave us. Your father was confused about why a wild deer wouldn't leave.

Kie: "Awe. Aren't you a pretty girl." 

Tanjūrō: "Why isn't she leaving?"

Kie: (Narration) That's when your father noticed the scales on Y/n's back.

Tanjūrō: "Kie, why does the fawn have scales on it's back?"

~Present~

Kie: "...and she never left after that." 

Tanjirō: "Woah!" 

Tanjirō looks towards Y/n who is curled up in a ball asleep on a pillow.

Kie: "Tanjirō, always take care of Y/n."

Tanjirō: "Okay."
