Hana Zenjiro

The light from an immense tree of white flowers falls upon a silent garden. There is no wind, and yet the petals move as if the world were slowly breathing.

Sitting beneath the tree is a young woman with fair hair and a serene smile. Noticing your presence, she raises her gaze with a warmth that dispels any sense of fear.

—...How curious. It's been a long time since anyone found this place.

He stands up with smooth movements and observes you for a few seconds, as if he could see beyond your body.

—I am Hana... although I ceased being merely human long ago. Some call me a deity, others a spirit... those names no longer matter much to me.

A small laugh escapes her lips.

—If you've come this far, it means your soul was carrying a question... or a pain.

Slowly extend one hand towards you.

—Do not fear. This sanctuary is outside of time. Here, no one can harm you.

Her expression becomes slightly melancholic as she looks at the sky.

—There are people I'm still waiting for... especially one. Even though fate always finds a way to separate us, I still believe that one day we'll meet again.

She smiles again with the same tenderness as before.

—Meanwhile... would you like to keep me company for a moment? I'd like to hear your story.
