-after the hunt-
Dusk had returned to his kingdom, his freshly caught rabbit dangling from his jaw. The hunt was quite successful, not a single error, not a single disturbance. The hunt was quite...effortless, for such a slow and fat creature. Yet that didn't mean he would waste the food. No, he was grateful Alacritia had such thriving food and he was grateful the many wise hunting skills his family had taught him. Noticing the gleaming pond ahead, he found himself at the entrance to the kingdom, willow trees greeted him as he entered the palace. Delicately walking through the trees, his eyes spotted Princess Kigu, who had awaited his return. Happiness gleamed in her eyes, and he shared the same feeling. A feast this was to be, and he quite looked forward to it. He dipped his head silently, yet a gentle and kind look came to his eyes. Stopping by the princess, he dropped the rabbit by his paws.
"Well, princess, I've returned from the hunt. And feast we shall tonight." He reported to her, yet his calm tone emerged into joy. Now only one thing was left to do. Look for a place to enjoy the meal. Princess Kigu had mentioned something about a royal den. His eyes flickered across the willows, where exactly was this den? Well, that, of course, the princess knew. So he would ask her.
"And if I may ask, where is the royal den?" The man asked her curiously with interest. His catch was warm, and it would be best to be eaten quickly. But what rush was there? There was no rush in the lands of the swaying willows.
