The boy was more than eager to listen to his older sister. As Fuji ushered them out into the world, he leaped on the opportunity. The bamboo hut was a stifling place, and their mother always seemed tired. He wanted a chance to lay and run, and let loose some of the energy that was bursting inside of him!
He had heard of the maze, but hadn’t experienced it for himself. So, being the pup he was, he dived into it head first. Racing out the front door, and past the sturdy Kiln that sat on their front porch. He moved alongside the willowy bamboo at a trott, letting out an excited yelp. Naturally, he was immediately lost and had no which way he had gone, or which way he was going. But to him, time didn’t mean all that much. He was just excited to explore it all! He had heard that there was an exciting beach, and despite having no knowledge on how to swim, he wanted to find his way there!
