In the gentle rain, an oil paper umbrella moved slowly.
Water glided down the umbrella's curved edges, forming a curtain of droplets around it.
The umbrella was surely not enough for three people to walk side by side comfortably beneath it, so one was walking in front of the person holding it, while the other two walking side by side, their bodies pressed close together.
As they walked along the jade path in the garden, the water gathered into small puddles, mirroring the cloudy sky like broken mirrors.

Holding the shaft, Lucian asked instead, "What do you think is the best way to comprehend the Heavens?"
Iris thought for a moment, "To experience the world as it is. But wouldn't using our Spiritual Sense to comprehend the world be much faster?"
