Prologue

It was a moonlit night and all was silence except for the chirping of the crickets and the croaking of the bullfrog.

A woman in a red and white miko's uniform was running like the wind and hidden beneath the long sleeves of her kimono was a little girl. The young woman came to a bush opened up her arms and the tiny child climbed out.

It was too dark to see their faces, but that was benefit of the night as the saimyosho hovered overhead searching for the girl. The woman ran off but looked back. "I will come back for you someday, just you wait there!" The little girl just sat there and played with the golden pyramid on the chain she wore around her neck. She didn't understand it at all, she just knew that her mother said to never open it for anyone.

Her mother did say that she would come back for her.

She didn't cry. She wouldn't. She was almost two years old

And big girls didn't cry.
