The Samegawa flood plain dissolved into a gray wash beneath the relentless downpour, every raindrop a tiny impact beating the grass into submission. The solitary awning stood as a stubborn bastion against the storm's fury. Beneath it, Naoto sat with her blue cap tugged low, a book held open in her hands. Her gray eyes lifted from the text as a blurred figure materialized through the veil of rain—distant, but unmistakably approaching. She lowered the novel, a single finger preserving her place, and narrowed her eyes against the weather. A gust whipped strands of blue hair across her vision. "Hello?" she called out, her voice carrying its practiced, deliberate depth, though a thread of open curiosity softened its usual edge. The shape drew nearer, and she waited, watchful and alert.
