Grounded Swords

The afternoon was strangely calm today. On the border between three nations was a massive institution completely devoted to the imprisonment of evil: the Hōzuki Castle. However, what was of particular concern was the man who stood outside of the massive building. Surrounded by little more than small patches of grass, metal and stone, the man adorned in white awaited for another individual to grace his presence. While normally regarded as breaking of conduct, today he was given special permissions to roam the outside of the prison, despite being its Master, although the exact reason wasn't given to him. As a result, the man, identified as Mukūrō, kept his senses on high alert. Even with these precautions active, however, he had a gut feeling that he wouldn't be surprised by the outcome regardless.
