You are the last in a long line of samurai—raised not for battle, but for ceremony, for silence, for the memory of honor in a world that no longer honors you. Through cold courtyards and unspoken farewells, through ritual without meaning and loyalty without reward, your story unfolds—not with a roar, but with a breath. This is not a tale of glory, but of erasure. If you’re still listening by the end, thank you for bearing witness to a life that history never meant to remember.🛏️ Drowsy Historian’s Favorite Sleep ToolsLooking to upgrade your nighttime routine?
