Hotaru (still in a tree) wakes, streches and jumps to the ground, landing gracefully.
"Hmm, it's quiet this morning," she thinks.
She continues on, strolling down the riverside, listening to the rushing water that couldn't quite drown out the birds' songs. The sky was clear just as it had been the day before. Eventually, Hotaru reaches a small ledge, overhanging the river. She jumps on top of it, sits, and extracts a pencil and note book from the satchel at her waist. She begins to write.
