(D0, ME) Quite a Big Hall

[Seppun Yuzu]

"You hope?" He blinks, looking at his arm and back at her, "I need assurance. Aren't you a priestess?"

[Kaito Oubaihime]

"Yes but... this one is a priestess of the Water Dragon not of the Lady Sun my lord." She bowed. "Lady Amaterasu is not up so this one hopes that Lady Amaterasu will allow the stars to be the ones to grant you cleansing." She kept her bow. "This one is quite sorry for this one clumsiness... This one did not expect a Lord in these halls at this time. I apologize once again and if you so wish allow this humble vessel of the water dragon return your clothes blessed and cleansed returned to you tomorrow."

[Seppun Yuzu]

"That will certainly do. Water washes away impurity. No burning, then." He takes a deep breath and bows, "I thank the Water Dragon for the blessings of purity."

Returning from the bow, he keeps looking at her with serious, caramel eyes, "I will be further thankful, and compassionate to forgive when the priestess return my trappings of office."

[Kaito Oubaihime]

The woman never changed her position from the bow. Her eyes only met the bottom of the Seppun's hakama. "Hai Lord Seppun sama... this one is humbled to be allowed to do such thing." She kept her bow.

[Seppun Yuzu]

He takes a second measure of the maiden now that he's not freaking out and provides a sound nod. "I hope I didn't wound you when the... collision... happened. Are you ok?"

[Kaito Oubaihime]

The woman straighten still averting the Seppun's eyes. She looked at his hakama rather than to his seldom bare torso, the under kimono should still be there. "I am fine Lord sama..."

[Seppun Yuzu]

"I am relieved, then." He says, and adjusts the inner kimono tightly. "I didn't know the Water Dragon had a shrine in Deer lands."

[Kaito Oubaihime]

"This one comes from a shrine on the Phoenix lands Lord sama..." She explained. "This one seeks the knowledge of the Temple of Musabi no kami... the renowned temple of the Deer lands."

[Seppun Yuzu]

“Soka. Musabi-kami predates Hantei Genji-shiryo-heika. Interesting study. I hope you learn much.”

He crosses his arm, “Yet, the thing one cannot forget after learning is to always introduce themselves to another samurai of rank.”

[Kaito Oubaihime]

Now she lowered her sight to the floor as shame creeps up her mind. "Ah ... Gomen gomen... This one is Kaito Oubaihime shrine Maiden of the Phoenix clan..." She bowed once again. "I... I... I am just a lowly samurai who doesn't know her way around these halls."
