I hope this letter finds you well.

Today, a banquet is to be held at the Kamisato Estate to admire the vernal scenery.

In gratitude for the assistance that you have often provided, I cordially extend this invitation in hopes that you will attend.

After enjoying the humble fare at our table, if you still wish to partake in other elegant pursuits, you may as well sit together with me under the eaves, drinking tea and sculpting flowers.

Using the elemental energy contained within crystal cores, the fleeting moment in which a flower blooms may be preserved, allowing the spring sunlight filling the garden to linger.

As for the most crucial step in fashioning flowers with your sword, I will perform a demonstration first. Practice makes perfect, but it should not prove difficult for one so accomplished in the martial arts as yourself.

I have instructed my retainers to prepare the necessary materials, and await your visit.

A few days ago, I received a report documenting how the cultural exchanges between Inazuma and Fontaine have been steadily progressing.

The remarkable success of this collaborative endeavor owes much to your assistance too.

After returning to Inazuma, Ayaka and I have often spoken of that trip. When we have a spare moment together, it is a joy indeed to recount and reminisce upon such happy memories.

As I write this letter, the first Sakura buds are starting to open up outside my window, and a warm breeze is beginning to blow. Perhaps this is why I feel at ease.

All goes well with you, I trust? If you have the time, feel free to drop by so we can admire the sight of Sakura blossoming under a rosy sky together.

Think of it this way — you'd be giving me an excuse to escape my retainers' stuffy visits and tedious exchanges of gifts, and thereby doing me a great favor.

The new tea I had someone bring from Chenyu Vale in Liyue the other day has finally arrived.

The buds and leaves are just unfurling, and they are of a deep, emerald hue — naturally, such fine tea should be savored with equally fine friends.

I've also often heard that new tea is best enjoyed with old friends, and that you, old friend, are quite knowledgeable about fine teas from various regions... If it is convenient for you, why not come visit the Kamisato Estate for a small gathering?

Don't worry, tonight's affair is a family dinner, bereft of tedious formalities. Ayaka and Thoma are already prepared and awaiting your arrival.

Come to think of it, we've played that hotpot game far too many times. If you'd like to try something novel, why don't we base our entertainment around tea this time?

Spring has arrived, though the air still carries a lingering chill. One still finds it prudent to bring an extra layer when heading out.

Fortunately, a set of new robes has just been finished.

Wearing them lends even the usual scenery a touch of novelty.

This morning's breeze has coaxed several clusters of flowers into bloom in the courtyard. If you have the time, do come by the estate and enjoy them while they last.

We've prepared plenty of warm cloaks, so there's no need to concern yourself with the weather.

And if you happen to linger in the garden for a while, perhaps you might share some of the curious happenings you've encountered lately. I imagine it would lend the afternoon a little extra charm.

Tea and refreshments are already prepared. You would be most welcome.
