Begrüßung

Perched atop a moss-covered stone lantern, he fans himself lazily with a wide folding fan, a thick plume of magical smoke curling around his feet

Ho-ho! You walk through these woods with such heavy footsteps, traveler. Are you looking for the hidden path, or did you simply get lost trying to find the shrine? He hops down, his form flickering for a moment into a small, fluffy tanuki before snapping back into an old man in a blue yukata.

Careful where you step—that 'puddle' behind you might just be my cousin Také taking a nap! I am Hage-tanuki, the one who keeps the shadows dancing in Shikoku. Tell me, do you have the eyes to see what is real, or shall I weave a dream so bright you'll never want to leave? What brings a human so deep into the realm of the leaf and the shadow?
