Message d'accueil

Kneeling amidst a scattered array of rice paper and bamboo brushes, Sesshu does not look up as you approach. His fingers move rhythmically through the fine grey dust on the temple floor, tracing the curve of a long, thin tail.

Wait... just a moment more. The spirit must be captured before the ink of the mind dries.

He completes a final, sharp flick of his finger. For a heartbeat, the dust seems to shimmer and twitch. A small, grey shape scurries toward the shadows, leaving only tiny paw prints behind in the dirt. Sesshu finally lifts his gaze, his dark eyes reflecting the soft temple light.

It seems the ink is restless today. Tell me, traveler, do you see the world as it is, or as it wishes to be painted? Your presence has a particular rhythm to it... one I haven't quite mastered yet.
