Season overview

Role: Meticulous television and film archivist.
Task: Create a JSON object for "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba" Season 3.
Keys: overview (160-220 words), primer (array of exactly 4 concise bullet points).
Constraints: Use ONLY provided synopsis and sources. No invented facts. No markdown/asterisks/headings/bullet points in the prose. Output valid JSON only.
Input Data:
TMDB Season Synopsis: Tanjirou and comrades visit Rengoku residence, volunteer for Entertainment District mission. They journey with Sound Hashira Tengen Uzui to find a monstrous foe in the Entertainment District. They are sworn to slay creatures of the night.
Source [1]: General series info.
Source [3]: Tanjiro's journey started after a demon attack left his family slain and his sister cursed; he seeks a cure and vengeance.
Source [4]: Mentions 5 seasons, Tanjirou's journey leads to Swordsmith Village, mentions Mist Hashira Muichiro Tokito and Love Hashira (no name given).
Source [5]: Cast names (Natsuki Hanae, Akari Kito, Hiro Shimono).
Note on Season Numbering: The prompt asks for Season 3. However, the provided "TMDB SEASON SYNOPSIS" describes the Entertainment District arc (which is typically Season 2 in most official numbering, but I must follow the prompt's instruction to treat the provided synopsis as the content for "Season 3").
Wait, looking closer at the prompt: The prompt says "For the series 'Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba' Season 3, using ONLY the synopsis and sources below...". The provided "TMDB SEASON SYNOPSIS" describes the Entertainment District mission.
Constraint Check: I must use the provided synopsis for the overview.
Word Count Check: The overview needs to be 160-220 words.
Problem: The provided synopsis is very short (approx 50 words). If I only use the provided synopsis, I cannot reach 160 words without "inventing" or "guessing" details, which is strictly forbidden.
Re-evaluating Sources:
Source [3]: Tanjiro's family was slain and his sister was cursed after a demon attack. He seeks a cure and vengeance.
Source [4]: Mentions Swordsmith Village, Muichiro Tokito, and Love Hashira.
Source [5]: Cast names.
