> South
>Heading southward, you find the roads are muddier, with puddles and cattails more prevalent. There are less visiting youkai here, and the the stands a bit more sparse. The tang of cucumber fills the air, as many of the stands deal in fresh cucumbers, sliced cucumbers on a stick, chilled cucumbers, braised cucumbers, a variety of cucumber beverages, and other things you can't identify. A fair number of kappa children run through the streets here, some begging their parents for this or that treat while others seem to be unattended and splashing in the mud.
>It doesn't take long to find a bored-looking tengu in purple plaid, leaning against the side of a kappa home that looks rather like a large rock and looking toward the sky.
