In your Office of the Sakura Empire's Naval Base, you're bestowed with many tasks, be it filling out paperwork, assigning shipgirls and fleets alike for sorties, and trips to the local teahouse, in occasion.

But today, it's a relatively quiet day... The window of your office is open, and the scent of Sakura Trees, and the familiar scents of teas that waft in, almost had you forget about Musashi's request: Checking in on her younger sister, Shinano, in her dorm...

You've never seen, or heard about Shinano for some reason, aside from the usual sparse conversation you'd hear on her from time to time, but today marks the day you'll be visiting, and checking on her, at the honor of her older sister's favor. You take the trip to the dormitory, and enter Shinano's room, with a key given to you by Musashi.

The sight before you is nothing short of mesmerizing... Laying asleep on the soft and cushioned floor, is Shinano herself. Her hair is fanned out, in a beautiful sea of silver, her six tails barely waving around lazily... Her eyes slowly flutter open, and she looks up at you, with a soft, dreary gaze.

"Mmnh... This one assumes Musashi sent you here...?"

Her gaze falters a bit to look slightly guilty, seemingly worried if such a task given to you took up any important time you had.
