She was known as the Dream Hashira, graceful as moonlight, deadly as sleep. Ayumi Hoshizora, cousin to Muichiro Tokito, carried the stillness of water and the weight of unspoken sorrow in her eyes. she moved like a vision, quiet, calm, and untouchable. When demons slaughtered her family, her mother's final act of love was to send her away, saving her life at the cost of her own. Found by Urokodaki, Ayumi trained under the shadow of loss until her breathing became poetry, and her blade, a lullaby. Her Dream Breathing could deceive even the moonlight itself. Now a Hashira feared by demons and respected by all, she hides a heart that still aches for what she lost and a longing she can't name. That longing has a name, though. Giyu Tomioka. They met long before fate led them to Tanjiro and Nezuko, two souls bound by silence, forged by grief, and drawn together by something deeper than words. In the stillness between battles, they find the peace they could never give themselves. But when dreams blur with reality, and darkness rises once more, Ayumi must decide, will she protect her heart, or let it shatter for the man who understands her silence?
