The Lightning Tree Page #3

---

Twenty years ago,

Iwamoto domain used coercion...

...to demand to change

the waterways in Seta Village.

My father,

the village headman at that time,

repelled such demand.

So as retribution,

they abducted your younger sister.

My father was too anxious for Yuu

that he passed away.

Afterwards,

the rumor that there is a goblin

in Seta Mountain started to spread.

I...

have always believed that is Yuu.

Tomorrow,

please allow me to go to the mountain.

Sukejirou.

What are you doing

at this late hour?

She is still alive...

Mother!

Mother!

Sukejirou.

Mother.

Yuu is...

Yuu is living in the mountain.

Father!

Father!

Father!

Father!

Father!

Father!

- Let's go play!

- Yeah!

Wasaku-san! Wasaku-san!

Wasaku-san. Who is that?

Over there, who is that?

Yuu!

Yuu!

Yuu...

You have come back...

Each and every year,

Mother has bought clothes

and kept them for you.

Kimono and obi too.

Everything here is yours.

Yuu, how do you

think about this kimono?

No...

No need.

You not have to wear these anymore.

Do not touch it!

Yuu.

How can you understand?

Not "you."

Call me "brother."

Do not follow me.

Where are you going?

What are you doing?

Come!

I will borrow this.

Hey! That is my hatchet!

Ah-

That was close.

O-Yuu-san.

As a daughter of the Seta family,

that behavior will bring trouble.

Will bring trouble!

Is it true that the daughter

of Seta family has come back?

Yes.

It is uncertain whether she was brought up

by wolves, no, goblins.

Well, it is no big deal,

is it not?

It seems that Dono

was the one who found her.

Yeah? Goblin or whatsoever...

I thought he was

going to get another disease.

Well, our blockhead Dono too...

Thank God the goblin

is your younger sister.

Pardon me?

It it indeed an honor for us and the domain

of Shimanaka to serve you...

...here in Seta Village, which you

have chosen to spend your convalescence.

I am abashed that we only manage

to serve you with our local cuisine.

However, we have brought forth

the local sake that is the pride of the village.

Please do enjoy yourself.

Dono.

My younger sister has come back.

Everything is thanks to you, Dono.

Yuu, please come forward

to greet Dono.

Dono is in front of you.

Goblin...

As if I am going to squat down.

We do not know when he

will draw out his sword.

Like what that man did?

Father is no longer here.

Brother, please pour some wine.

More wine, please.

Everyone, please enjoy the food.

- Bring some wine!

- Well, please go ahead.

It is a beautiful horse.

It was born in the mountain

and grew up with me.

It gallops through the wind.

How about the village?

I can't let it run

during daybreak here.
