The letter from my friend Yakumo arrived ten days ago.

I'll show you something interesting, she'd written.

Usually, when she says that, it ends up being a flop, but...

Well?

What do you want to show me here in the middle of nowhere?

Wait and see.

We'll have to walk a little ways.

"Something interesting" had better not be Amitabha's Pure Land.

Please, there's no such thing.

How would you know?

Well, I've never seen it.

Me neither.
