A gentle breeze swept through the air, leaves chasing each other while the birds sang in harmony. A light smile could be seen upon the lips of a young Japanese woman as she walked across the bridge, sapphire, almost black eyes watching as the Koi fish swim. A gentle hum could be heard from this woman as well, the words "Mado Kara Mieru" slipping past her lips. Her voice was soft, shockingly beautiful as the words were just in whispers. It was a song her mother used to sing to her sister and herself to put them to bed.
As the woman entered the Zen Garden, she was welcomed by little mocking birds. She giggled softly as she put her hand out, one of the birds gently landed on it. It stared at the woman, head tilted a bit, and after moments began singing. Her dark red eyes shut as she began walking, humming along with the bird. It was peaceful, quiet.
" Well...I best make my way back to the Inn. Fair travel's little one! " Ryuu said softly, kissing the birds head gently before raising her hand. It was hesitant at first, but after looking back to Ryuu, it chirped a bit before flying off. A small scent flew by Ryuu's nose as she made her way down the stone cobbled path. A small smirk took hold of Ryuu's soft pink tinted lips. " Sister has made her green tea... " she said with a laugh.
Soon enough, Ryuu had approached the Inn, only to see sister was busy with a customer. She stepped inside the Inn, slipping her wooden geta sandals off and placing them away from the entrance. She smiled brightly at her sister and the new customer as she gave a small bow to the two before making her way into the sitting room.
