i run through my island, hitaki’s, forests, searching for buffalo to catch. i pant softly, my brows furrowed together. my bow in tact, i launch arrows at any animal i can find.

… later in the day, during meal preparation time, i sit on the wheat floor chairs with the island’s princess mika. we watch mika’s mother prepare the fish i had specifically caught for her family.

mimi, how was your royal day?
