But...

I couldn't write.

Even if I had an outline of the story, I couldn't set the people within in motion.

I was unable to create "characters".

That's only natural, of course.

As you know, we satori youkai can read people's minds. However, that's it.

Carelessly reading someone's mind doesn't tell you their emotions. You can't imagine what their hearts are like.

I came to realize that the act of "describing a person" was very difficult to me.

I was worried, but there was really nothing I could do...

That's when I found your notebook.
