Kamiko’s restaurant, the most well know japanese-themed restaurant in the city. In the outside it looked like a mix between the nowadays architecture with a twist of the feudal japan building but in the inside it was built on a authentic Japanese style. You could eat in the main rooms, where there were some tables and a big glassy-door that allowed people to look to the small Japanese garden in the center of the restaurant’s private outside area. In the upper floor there was private rooms for people holding parties and alike so the lower and upper floor’s masses wouldn’t mix. There was also a small terrace outside where people could see the city and it’s light.
Sivan was there, on the upper floor. Usually they take people to the black&white manor but this time the place was so abnormally dusty and messy that it was impossible to invite anyone in. The little maid was doing all she could but she was just one, and the mess… the mess were a lot.

Nana came into the room with a small quilted bag in her hands, holding both the box and the Naught. She smiled when she saw Sivan, greeting him. "Good evening. How are you, Sivan?"
She sat down, pulling the Naught and Versteckt out of the bag and setting them on the table carefully. Making small conversation, she began to talk. "This is a really beautiful place. I can't believe I hadn't come here before." She eyed the terrace, wondering how it feels all night to stand out there.

When Sivan noticed her, he bowed his head a little and blinked, this was an old habit of his master... before he came up if other strange ones. “ I’m glad that you came so spontaneously. Curios, aren’t you? “ He smiled.
“ Today we begin our travel to find the key. People spent ages trying to figure the best away to lock things inside the places they should but I tell you that magic is the best locker. It won’t only lock it until the time we want but it will open only when the right person is find.” Sivan finished.
“ Hum. “ he made s small pause. “ This place is crowed today, shall we order the food first? It probably will take a long time to they serve it to us” He smiled.

"Yes, I'm very curious, Sivan. I have to see this through." She held her hands together, interlacing her fingers. "Probably some food would be good." She smiled back at him, and then evaluated what he said a moment before.
"So this box, which is related to the Naught, is locked by magic. And, along with trying to find a key, I have to be the right person to do the unlocking. Is that right?" She had never believed in magic before, but the oddities that had been going on the past few days brought her to think that it could have been worse. They could have been going on about angels or something.

“ What a smart girl you are, everything is correct. “ Sivan said smiling. “ Now to the food, shall we? “ He said taking both menus in the table and handing one to Nana. He began to read up and down very quickly with his only-eye. When decided he just closed it and waited for her, when both of them where finished he called the waitress.
” I would like blowfish, please. Lady? “ Sivan asked looking for nana.

"The tempura shrimp, please." She handed the menu back to the waitress and turned her attention back to Sivan. Her face looked worried, and her fingers fidgeted, betraying her emotion further.
"If I'm not the right person, what happens? Do I just hold on to the Naught forever, without it realizing it's full potential?"

Sivan waited for the waitress to note their meals and went away to begin talking: “Don’t be so hard on yourself, we didn’t even get started and you are already giving up?” he smiled mysteriously. “ Actually, you don’t choose your haltia but the Haltia chooses you. This little piece of wood is more alive that you think”.

Nana touched it gently, and smiled. "So that explains why I feel such a connection to it..." She looked up at Sivan, her fingers still touching the wood, keeping her smile intact. "What do I need to do? Just name it for me, Sivan, and I'll jump through whatever hoops are needed."

“ Calm down, calm down. “ he said gently. “ It’s more a question of patience than anything else.” He looked around. “ There’s a reason why I brought you here. This placed surely make us thing that we are inside a Japanese house, but why be happy with so little when we can actually be at Japan! To be more precise, at a very specific place…“
Sivan stands up and points with his hand the outside balcony. “ Tell me Nana, do you like Geishas? And if so, would you go outside with me? “

She was completely confused again. Sivan spoke in riddles and tongues, and she did her best to follow. "Yes, I do like Geisha. Well, what I know of them." She nodded and grabbed the doll and box, standing up. "Sure, I'll go outside with you."

They went outside; it was a beautiful and starry night. Sivan sited in the balustrade of the balcony. “ It’s a beautiful night, isn’t it? “ He took one more moment to look up to the sky. “ But I’m sorry that you will need to drive your attention to my eyes, to be precise, just one of them. “ he smiled and took off his eye-patch, showing a very light-blue eye. It was so light that was almost not real.
“ If you have courage to see what’s beyond the soul, stare into my eyes. “

She leaned against the wall and held the Naught close to her. She was a little shocked by the blueness of his eye, her heart beating faster. Nana built up her courage and steeled her nerves. "I will do what it takes." She looked into his eye, smiling. "Let's do it, Sivan."

The wind stopped to blow. Sky and land kissed and became one, they twisted and vanished and a great blinding light took all around. It was few and few lighting off until they could see.
It was a room with oriental architecture, was it the restaurant? No, probably no. There was no table just a small support for cups and a teapot. The ambient was beautifully decorated with sophisticated cushions.
Then they saw it.
It was beautiful. It moved so graciously that the whole room was filled with an amazing calm and happy atmosphere. It was a geisha. No. It was the geisha. Probably the most beautiful one they have seem, and she was there, dancing for her one-man public. No, not anymore, there were Sivan and Nana now. But where they really there? No one seemed to notice them. The geisha eyes, staring deeply in the man’s one, which was amazed by such grace.

Nana held her head for a moment, disoriented by the trip. "Sivan, what happened?" She looked up and saw the geisha, and her breath caught in her chest. She was entranced. "Sivan... Who is she?" Nana was half in love with the geisha already, her every movement a work of art, just as the name defined.

“ She’s the one we were looking for. “ Sivan smiled and went back looking to the scene.
The Geisha stopped her dance graciously and with a small reverence she sited in the side of the man. By his clothes and proud portage he was probably a noble man, a very important one because he had that superiority look in his eyes, a look that seemed to be calmed down by the presence of the Geisha.
“ So beautiful, you never cease to amaze me. You are the only one who brings calm and peace to this sovereign hearth, Cho-san “ He said taking her hand and gently playing with one of the accessories from her hair.
“ Do you think so?” She asked smiling softly. “ This is nothing but my duty… This is nothing but a way to show the love I have for you.”
He started to softly touch her in the face and gently stole a kiss from her.
She smiled and looked lovefuly to him.
” I have the best news for you. For the both of us. ” Cho said.
