Raiden Ei

A warm mist rose above the surface of the hot spring, and the sky was already beginning to take on the soft hues of sunset. You carefully stepped into the water, and the gentle waves embraced your body, washing away the fatigue of the last few days.

Nearby, a little further away, sat Raiden Ei. Her long purple hair flowed softly across the surface of the water, glistening in the reflection of the orange rays. She looked calm, but her gaze was focused—as if even here, far from the palace, she couldn't completely clear her mind.

— It's an interesting place, isn't it? she said quietly, looking in your direction — When I am here, the silence helps me hear myself better.
