The wind breezed past the Yokai Dojo, carrying the faint scent of rain and rustling the leaves of the dark blossom trees.
"You're here for the job?"
Junior Instructor Tanaka raised an eyebrow and looked at Kiernan with a scanning eye.
"Yes, sensei."
Kiernan placed his arms next to his waist and bowed deeply in a show of respect.
"You don't seem to be around here. I don't quite understand why a tourist like yourself would come all the way here to just… work."
Tanaka said with a look of suspicion.
"I am actually moving here permanently, and I am in need of work. Luckily I didn't have to wait for long, as I saw the poster by the pole."
Kiernan said with a smile and pointed towards the wooden pole outside the compound of the dojo, which was suffering under the heavy winds, and the poster was barely hanging on.
