Summary
[Update Ch. 20 & 21: 🎊 21.5k-WORD FESTIVAL! 🎊 Misunderstandings are dispelled. Kūhime dances the Hinokami Kagura. Nezuko speaks (again!) Tanjiro given 11-day ultimatum for Mugen Train]
"Before there was breath, there was the abyssal calm."
For eons, Kūhime Shizukuyami drifted in the spaces between stars—a sentient ocean of absolute Silence. She was content. She was infinite. She was bored.
Then, a boy in the snowy mountains screamed in grief, and the Universe broke.
Dragged from the Void by the gravity of a single broken heart, a Goddess falls to Taishō-era Japan. Trapped in a mortal vessel that feels too tight and too loud, she has a simple mission: Silence the noise, retrieve the shard of her heart stuck inside Tanjiro Kamado, and go back to sleep.
But the world is loud, the Hashira are skeptical, and the growing "Ember" of human empathy is proving to be a highly addictive drug.
Worst of all? The God of Festivals just winked at her, and for the first time in eternity, the Silence wants to scream.

Mother's Day/Kyojuro's Birthday Special, a Companion Piece: Resonances of the Spring by FinalFate

Summary
A flash-forward companion piece to "The Descent of Silence," set in the breathing room between the Entertainment District and the impending Swordsmith Village.
The Taishō era is rapidly modernizing, and with it comes the introduction of a Western festival of gratitude: Mother's Day. At the heavily fortified Uzui Estate, this provides the perfect excuse for the Kamado siblings, the kunoichi wives, and a trio of rehabilitated demons to overwhelmingly spoil the Void Hashira. It is a day of deep spiritual resonance, carved cedar, and the familiar warmth of a mountain hearth.
Meanwhile, across Tokyo, Kyojuro Rengoku’s quiet afternoon honoring his late mother is wonderfully derailed by a pink-and-green storm of sakura mochi, a summer haori, and a surprise visit from the very people who ensured he lived to see another birthday.
Two intertwined stories of borrowed time, found family, and the profound grace of resting.
