In a haunting blend of folklore and urban legend, The Soundless Cut follows the chilling return of Kenshin, a once-gifted samurai and songwriter executed centuries ago for falling in love with the Emperor’s daughter. Beheaded while singing his final love song, Kenshin's ghost lingers—riding a black horse, carrying no blade, yet claiming lives with poetic precision. Now known only as the Headless Samurai, he reappears in modern-day Japan, guided by an ancient vendetta and bound to a mystical notebook that glows with ink-stained wrath.
One by one, seven souls—each embodying one of the deadly sins—cross paths with a woman cloaked in mystery. They receive a song, beautiful and fatal. Once the final chorus plays, the victim is found lifeless, a spectral "Forgiven." scrawled near the scene. Unbeknownst to all, the Emperor’s daughter has reincarnated and is marking each new sinner, assisting Kenshin in his ghostly justice.
Dear Reader,
Thank you for stepping into the shadows with me.
The Soundless Cut was born from a single question: What if music could haunt, and a song could sever the soul? In this standalone myth woven from the greater universe of Dence Unwired, I wanted to explore the sins we try to hide and the silence we fear most—the kind that comes after a final note is sung.
Kenshin’s story is one of sorrow, justice, and echoes that refuse to fade. Though this tale is wrapped in darkness and legend, it is also a mirror—a reflection of what we sometimes become when art, love, and vengeance blur their lines.
Whether this is your first time entering the world of Dence Unwired, or you’ve followed the storm from the start, I hope this myth lingers with you like a forgotten song—beautiful, chilling, and impossible to ignore.
