~*The House*~The shelf that had been claimed for Kujaku was at the very top of the village tree. It was a quiet, out of the way spot with the best view. In the new tree, his home is closer to the others, but still off on its own. While he likes to be the centre of attention, Kujaku does still value his alone time.
At each corner of the home is a small, kanji-embossed windchime with an elemental marker upon it. In the east is water, in the south is fire, in the west is air and in the north is earth. Youko took great care in placing them properly, wanting to protect the Ieldi's summoning as much as he could.
In the corners facing away from the main bulk of the tree, two caged butterflies rest, one in each corner. In one corner is a small bamboo stand with a model of a panda at the base. In the other is a cage twined with grapevines. Beside each is an elixir designed to keep the butterflies well and happy.
Near the steps to the outside sits a small dark vial of potion that seems to gleam with the brilliance of the stars themselves. Beside it is another bottle, this one with a strange tiny creature inside that bounces around playfully. They are meant to entice the new Ieldi, as something for him to watch and be curious about.
For now, this is all that decorates the small home, save for the leather-bound diary, pen and inkpot that rests near a small beanbag cushion that Youko has taken to curling up in.
