"Calm down, you should relax before I try to explain things again. I still don't think you know where you are exactly. Just sit and relax, I'll get some food and tea alright? Then we can start at the begining so you can understand everything that's going on." He stuck his head out of the door and caught a serving girl as she went by.

Hikitsu was right, she wasn't sure where she was, but she didn't really care as long as she could fins a way to get back to Tokyo. Midori hadn't seen a phone when they came in so calling home was out of the question. Sitting on the bed, she waited for Hikitsu to finish talking to the server girl.
'I wonder what kind of job he has in mind...' She glanced toward the serving girl.
'A waitress?'
Her brow furrowed, showing that she was in deep thought.

Hikitsu brought the tea and some buns back to the small table in the room. "Here, definitely have some tea, but I wasn't sure if you were still hungry." He poured her some tea, then himself. "Alright, you are in the Capital of Hokkan, we are in the Northern section of this world. Did something strange happen to you right before you found yourself in the garden?"

Midori drank the tea that Hikitsu had poured and thougt about how she got here.
"Well," she started as she set her cup down, "I was reading this book, about Warriors and Priestesses. Then I turned the page and it was talking about how the reader of this book's wish will be granted and it was then talking about the Priestess of Genbu, and then, before I knew it, I was in this place! I went from Tokyo to this place and then I feel and that's how I ended up in the garden! Not much more to it."
She sipped some more tea and started to eat a bun.

"So you were reading a book, then ended up here. I think you must have came to this world through the book. That's the only explaination. I am one of those warriors the book talked of. I can make wind and reduce light in the air somewhat." He waved his hand and a breeze started, then he showed her his symbol. "See, Hikitsu... And I think you were chosen to be the Priestess of Genbu. I think if you want to get home, we should find all the warriors and you can wish yourself home. I'm sure you think I'm crazy, but I think that's the truth."

Midori watched Hikitsu make the breeze in awe. Thinking about what Hikitsu said, she felt excitement and nervousness at the same time.
Exciting since she could meet new people and she was a Priestess, nervous because she didn't know if the people she meet would be as nice as Hikitsu and Miss Tarro.
"So... Do the other Warriors, like yourself, have powers too? Are they the same or different? How many Warriors are there? How long will it take to find them? Are they all here? What do I do once I find them?" Midori decided to stopped her rain of questions, she had much more, but didn't want to frustrate Hikitsu.

Hikitsu laughed a bit, "Ok, let me see if I can answer all these. Yes, as far a I know we all have special powers in order to protect you better. They are different I believe, we each have our own, unique strength. There are Seven, one for each of Genbu's constellations. Hikitsu, that's me, then there are Uruki," he started to count on his fingers, "Tomite, Inami, Umiyame, Namame and Hatsui. I don't know how long it will take to find them, and I'm pretty sure they are all from Hokkan, but they maybe traveling or something. Once you find all the Warriors, then you summon the Beast God Genbu and have your wishes granted!" He took in a breath, "I think I caught them all..."

Midori sat there, taking it all in.
"You mean, I-I'm a Priestess with the power to summon a god?! That... That's so cool! And wishes!" Now her face was all excitement.
"And you all have special powers! We have to go find them!" Midori clenched her fists in excitement, trying to supress it and calm herself down.
She took a deep breath and said, "Hey, Hikitsu, you never told me what kind of job you had in mind for me. If we're going to search for the other Warriors, we'll need transportation and places to stay along the way. That means, we'll need money and I don't wanna be deadweight, I wanna work for some money too."

"That was my idea, to have you be the Priestess. It's a full time job..." He tapped his chin. "We need to go to the Palace and see if we can talk to the Emperor. He made a decree that anyone who finds the Priestess should bring her to the Palace so they can make it offical and all. There is a reward too. So that should give us enough to find the other warriors, and I'm sure the Emperor will fund it. You are here to save the kingdom afterall."

Midori stared at Hikitsu.
"My job is to be the Priestess? Hm... Well, when should we go to the Emperor?"
She layed down in the bed, stretching.
"But... How would the check to see if I was the true Priestess? Would they just judge by my clothes?" Now Midori started to worry.
'What if they don't think I'm the Priestess? Heck, I don't even know if I really am, but Hikitsu said I was probably the Priestess. What if he was wrong?'

"You're the Priestess, I can just tell. Don't worry about that. It's obvious you are from another world, and you want the job, right? Plus I feel this compulsion to protect you, so I'm pretty sure you are. Don't worry about it Midori. The most important thing right now is for you to be alright. Then we will worry about the Emperor."

Midori smiled, comforted by Hikitsu's words.
"I'm feeling better now, see?" She lifted her right leg and moved in a circular motion.
"Doesn't hurt that much anymore. I guess my leg is used to me tripping a lot. So, when should we start heading towards the Emperor's palace? We should go to him as soon as possible, so I can go find the other warriors!"

He smiled and laughed a bit, "You remind me of my little sister Mei. She's got a very adventurous spirit too. Well if you are feeling well, we can leave soon." He took a bun and started to eat it, drinking some tea since he'd given her his lunch. After a few moments he was feeling better and he stood. "Alright, let's get going."

Midori jumped up from the bed.
"You have a little sister? Aww, she probably very cute! How old is she?" she asked she walked up to Hikitsu. She adjusted the robe Hikitsu had given her, she still hadn't taken it off, since it was a bit loose on her small body.

Hikitsu grabbed his spare robe and put it on since they were going to the palace. "Yes, she's 10, and she is very cute. Long curly brown hair and big brown eyes... she kind of reminds me of a baby deer. I take care of my sister and mother, my father died when I was little. On our journey, I'll need to take some money to them, so you'll get a chance to meet her."
