"Oh of course, a garden and ponds, I will build it with my own hands if I must. I will empty my father's coffers to see it done."

"I don't think that will be necessary." The Kaito kissed his cheek. "I can try my best to work the land with my hands."

"Here's something I have been considering lately and you are only opinion that matters to me on it so I should ask you. Should we be together and I a Kaito, should I continue to dye my hair or let it go back to black?"

"A new life a new style... I think back to your normal color will be best. That way you don't stand out as a Crane." She placed her hands in her mouth thinking she has offended him. "I... I meant no offense."

He pulled her hand away from her face and held it. "I take no offense, I haven't felt like a Crane in a long time. My mother always taught me about my families long ties to the Phoenix and our origins there, I think she meant for me to go back to them; to go home."

"Home... ah... that feeling is exhilarating... going home. I know that is whee you should back to the Phoenix lands." She nodded as she kissed his forehead.

"It helps that I like the warmth of orange and red, blue is lovely but cold. I prefer your warmth. Plus the silver mines sound interesting."

"If we are matched there will be a lot of white and blue but not the wear." She smiled.

Soyokaze's naiveite swallowed him whole and all he could say was "Huh?"

"The Water Dragon Temple decoration are those of white and blue." She explained "We keep out typical wear of white and reds to maintain the Temple and then there is the training clothes."
