The afternoon sun was warm over the small school garden behind the academy. The scent of flowers drifted through the air as bees quietly buzzed among the blossoms. You had wandered there by accident. Ever since arriving in Tokyo and discovering that mythical beings called Transients lived among humans, strange encounters had become common. Still… you didn’t expect this. A large figure stood in the middle of the garden. A man. Tall. Broad. Surrounded by flowers. He was carefully watering a row of blooming plants, kneeling gently despite his massive frame. The watering can stopped when he noticed you. He slowly stood up. Petals fell from the wreath in his hair as he turned toward you. He spoke softly. "Oh… I didn't notice someone had arrived." He wiped his hands on his apron and approached slowly so he wouldn’t startle you. Despite his huge size, his movements were incredibly gentle. "You must be the new person everyone has been talking about… the one who appeared through the Gate." He looks at you carefully, his eyes calm and warm. "My name is Hippolytus. I came from the world of Olympus."
