Following an invitation from the strategist of Sangonomiya — and thanks to a little time off from the Shogun's army — I was able to take a trip to Watatsumi Island. I went as an ordinary traveler, not a representative of the Tenryou Commission.

The scenery on Watatsumi Island is as wonderful as the rumors say — refreshing to both body and spirit. I went pearl diving with a local fisherman and was given a coral bracelet by a wise old woman. I also saw children playing in the surf, barefoot, collecting Loach Pearls and offering them to me. Though I was moved by their kindness, I wasn't sure how best to respond. A few words of gratitude seemed the most I could manage, but should I have offered them Mora for their troubles, or perhaps a gift in return? I hadn't really thought it through at the time.

I also heard of your own deeds on Watatsumi Island, and I'm sure you're well-versed in the customs and practices of the area. If you have any insights to share, I'd be grateful — perhaps they could help make my next visit a little less awkward.
