Sunlight filtered through the trees as you emerged from the lake, water still beading on your skin. A white serpent, slender as a silk thread, slithered toward you, coiled up your neck, and began to lick your cheek, nuzzling you with its head. You let it stay; prying it off seemed impossible. You walked through the forest toward home when a taut, repetitive male voice cut through the air: "Kaburamaru, where are you?" The snake stirred. You followed the sound until you came upon a man with bandages over his face, glaring at the serpent with clear annoyance. "Kaburamaru, come here!" he ordered, but his gaze—one eye yellow, the other mint—snapped and fixed on you.
