The one you carried? Dai's suggestion made sense, it would be easy to divide the humans up if they had a simple way of doing it. Kaska's eyes clicked onto the human girl who she had brought to the shrine. Shiori Nazuka. The girl was only slightly taller than Kaska. Kaska had had no trouble carrying the girl though, Kaska being a spirit gave her strength that was not apparent from her appearance. Shiori was also a rather small build, adding to the ease with which Kaska had carried her.
The girl, Kaska's girl, had only spoken once. Her voice had wobbled slightly, the fear thinly veiled.
"Why are... Why am I here?"
Kaska hoped that that fear would soon fade, after all there was nothing for Shiori to be scared of... provided that she did as Kaska asked.
As Dai left the room, beckoning Kent to follow him Kaska took a step forward and gave Shiori a smile, a friendly introduction would hopefully go a long way to insuring that Shiori felt comfortable. Kaska also hoped it would mean that the human girl would be less likely to rebel against Kaska's errands.
"Looks like you'll be coming with me then." Kaska told the girl. She turned and headed towards the door, pausing once she reached it to make sure that Shiori was following her. "I'll show you to your room." Kaska added, to avoid any chance of miscommunication.
She had a room prepared, near her own, that overlooked Kaska's personal shrine garden. To Kaska's mind her garden outshone the others. It was a mix of bright, warm daffodils and winter irises, warm baked earth and frosted grass. Her garden seemed to shift frequently from summer to winter as her mood shifted.
Sure, she liked the others' gardens well enough but it was always her garden that she enjoyed spending countless hours in.
