naoyuki could sense their group growing, though he didn’t have an exact count of how many there were. it was difficult to track everyone’s breathing with the constant beating of rain against the canopy acting as sound traffic.

he decided to use voices instead, and could count four distinct children. two of them spoke a language that he hadn’t heard before — 浩明在哪里? huojin asked — while the others spoke in single words of common.

he blinked his eyes, using the sparse sunlight to count what shadows could be distinguished. near him sat the smallest blob, whom he might have assumed was miwa if not for her voice; across were two slightly offset figures, with one standing just behind the other, and to his right was the final participant. the fleeting silhouette of caerus could hardly be distinguished, with how quickly he moved.

the farthest child spoke, allowing him to place a position to its voice — who are you? the girl asked, slowly inching forward. naoyuki had to assume that the question was directed toward him, and so he enthusiastically replied, nao - nao! liliana smiled, and awaited the other childrens’ answers.
