Do you remember the song that your mother once hummed to you as a infant? A toddler? A boy?

She would hum it during those nights where you couldn't sleep. She would sing it on the bright days to which she would dance with your father.

You never really had your mother's taste in music.

But you can't deny that the lullaby, or rather song, lured you to sleep.

You remind me of another lullaby. One that Kintoru hummed to one of your ancestors before she turned into a pawn.

Which one you may ask?

...

Pink and Red.

Sat on her black waterfall of her white head.

...

Do you remember now?

I see you do.

You may be angered by my use of language.

I told you I spoke of the 信頼.

It doesn't mean I will give it directly.

You're rather agitated.

How about a lullaby to lure you to sleep then my dear reader?

My dear sweet Hiachi.

So young, so pure.

Dressed in white to highlight the innocence of your life.

Yet with a touch of red to that life I will take from you.

You've done me a favor, I thank you so.

So allow me to bestow you one in told.

Close your sleepy eyes.

For you shall see.

A new world will rise upon your youthful eyes.

————————————

Night falls upon the first spring

Warm blackness spreads upon this night

Close your sleepy eyes

Make your wish to the falling blossoms of the tree

For this is a time of new beginnings and life

When you sleep

You shall dream

Darkness coats your sight

Floating on a soft bed of white

Pink and Red fill the dark

Their colors beckoning to the eye

Until you are blinded by a white

Pink and Red glow brilliantly in wonder

A woman with wishes shall stand under the tree of that color

Brilliant butterflies filled with light

Surround the woman in your sight

What is it you wish for little one?

Spring is the time for new beginnings young one

Take my hand and you shall see

A new world and eternal happiness

More than you can believe

Close your sleepy eyes

Your wish shall be granted

And when you wake up

A new life shall be given.

——————————

"This lullaby shall be called Spring of Dreams."
