Chapter 2: River

Luke thought about what Akari had told him. One river? And it connected to a bunch of other towns so that the Harvest Goddess could visit them all? To him it seemed improbable. To her it appeared to be as clear as day. The very thought of it just tangled up his mind. Yet here they were, talking about it with their toes hanging off the edge of the dock, looking off into the distant blue ocean. Akari ran a question through him. "Do you think that this ocean could connect with a bunch of other rivers?" Luke didn't know.
