southward.
kaede does not protest the march. she does not complain about the pain in the arches of her feet.
but she is bone-tired and further wrung by her great efforts to keep up such a painted mask.
ryūjirō has taken a concubine. that is what kaede believes.
she hopes the carnal will satisfy this forceful brother masa has left behind.
as for herself, her thoughts have turned toward a kingdom. an imperial palace. it is a dream, and yet it is what she deserves.
ryūjirō signals that they will stop here beside this lake. kaede does not yet set down her own burdens. instead she begins to survey the water, looking for those nests of rich eggs laid by ground-dwelling birds.
