Kuekuatsu ↴

"Why is the moon so lonely? Because she used to have a lover. His name was Kuekuatsu and they lived in the spirit world together. And every night, they would wander the skies together. But, one of the other spirits was jealous. Trickster wanted the Moon for himself. So he told Kuekuatsu that the Moon had asked for flowers; he told him to come to our world and pick her some wild roses. But Kuekuatsu didn't know that once you leave the spirit world, you can never go back. And every night, he looks up in the sky and sees the Moon and howls her name. But... he can never touch her again."

Kuzuri ↴

"Kuzuri. Do you know what that means? An animal. A fierce creature with long claws and sharp teeth. It fears nothing. When I was a girl, I had nightmares. I would wake up and run to my parents. My father would get angry. (speaks Japanese) 'Go back to sleep. Face your fears.' My grandfather was different. He told me stories about Kuzuri, his friend. Who he met at the bottom of a well. He said the Kuzuri was magical and saved his life. He said Kuzuri would protect me, too, as I slept in my bed."
