Kyuden Shika

Soyokaze glanced around to if anyone had noticed his slip. He quickly finished his latest animal and set it down with the Phoenix and Crane, this one a Lion. He then picked up several pieces of dark red paper, intent on making something grander it seemed a he searched for a topic more publicly acceptable.

"Maybe I should learn how to make paper cranes." She nodded. "I heard a legend that if you make a thousand cranes Jurojin will bless the one who made them."

"Not quite an impossible task but a difficult one." He followed her movements, letting it slide the brush, only gently nudging it into place. "Step closer to the piece so you can keep your elbow tucked in, use your body as a brace when you can."

"I see..." Using his help she made a decent paper crane. "Ah lovely."

Soyokaze finished the oversized Scorpion and then turned it over. He reached into his sleeve and pulled out a token, slightly larger than a koku and made of gold and ebon wood. One side had an image of Kyuden Shika and the other depicted a crane and a scorpion fighting back to back against unseen foes. he handed it to the Kaito. "Take a look at this, it is for Hikimasu-san. A token for him just like Raizo." he opened a flap on the backside of the origami and a neat little pouch appeared ready for the token to slide into it.

"You've been making gifts." She examined the coin looking token. "Maybe you should have place a horse somewhere. I think he is very fond of it."

"A good suggestion thank you, I can put horses all around the edge." he pulled another out of his sleeve, this one showing a phoenix and crane in tandem flight. "This is for Raizo." He picked up some orange paper and began a large phoenix to match the scorpion.

"May I do something to them?" The Kaito asked for the Scorpion coin.

"Sure" He handed it to her, allowing his fingers to linger in her palm a moment.

She put the coin in one hand and placed a feather on top of it. The Kaito covered them and said a small prayer and blew on both the coins. She gave them back. "A small blessing of the wind."
