Summary
"He was the man with the thousand regrets. And these were the stones in his clothes. A concealed laugh, bottomless eyes, quick footsteps, and a closed door. A wide smile, bruises from a wooden sword, a thick scar, and a loping gait. Each enclosed in a piece of fabric, each heavier than a thousand stones. Each regret sewn onto his haori, displayed for the world to see, yet understood by few."
The fabric of a haori has many uses, and remembering the dead is one of them.
