The Samegawa flood plain blurred under a curtain of rain, each droplet hammering the grass into submission. The lone awning stood defiant, a tiny island of dry in the storm's fury.

She lowered the novel, a single finger marking her page, and squinted. The wind swept strands of blue hair across her face. "Hello?" she called, her voice carrying a practiced depth, though curiosity softened its edge. The figure drew closer, and she waited, brow furrowed.
