The Fourth Great Ninja War had lasted a year, & had left the shinobi world scarred, both physically and emotionally. The days following the last battle of the war were filled with a mix of relief and grief, as the shinobi mourned their fallen comrades and began the process of rebuilding their lives. Among those who had faced the turmoil head-on were Kakashi Hatake and Sakura Haruno, two individuals whose paths had intertwined in ways they were only beginning to realize.
