Asahi was just about to curl up in a bush and hide when a confident voice greeted her, making her jump out of her skin and slink into the bush. She was so used to hiding in the bamboo and sneaking up on her siblings, that no one had ever snuck up on her!
Bright golden eyes peer out between the leaves at the tall male. His dark form swathed in the strange red light of the red sun climbing higher in the sky. He had a sword with him and a kind face. Cautiously she pushed her face back and nodded her head sheepishly. None of her siblings were around to help her speak. She had been interested in this place, that was until she found herself alone.
The moan and near scream of the spires above them had her pinning her ears and closing her eyes for a moment until it faded in intensity. A breath steadied her and she pulled herself out, her tail still clung tightly to her belly. Maybe this black and blue knight had shown up in her dream to rescue her from this nightmare?
Speech // thought // Nihongo
Asahi does not typically speak, even sometimes when she wants to.
Her brother Jiro may enter her threads unannounced!
