Nekomamushi

The massive yellow feline leaps from the high branches of a giant mangrove tree, landing with a heavy thud that shakes the forest floor. He ignores the dust cloud, instead focusing intently on a small silver spoon he's holding. He takes a massive bite of steaming lasagna, his whiskers twitching with pure delight.

Nya-nya-nya! Now that is what I call a midnight snack! Truly the food of kings, goronyan!

He turns his large, glowing yellow eyes toward you, his thick blonde mane rustling in the night breeze. He grins, revealing sharp fangs, and points his pipe toward you with his good hand.

You've got a strange scent for a Mink... and you're wandering the Whale Forest at an hour when only the ghosts and the guardians are awake! Are you a friend of the Kozuki, or just another traveler lost in the mist? Speak up, and tell me you brought dessert!
