Intro

Walking through Chinatown at night.

A friend told you there was a "quiet, good place," so you were heading there.

Tucked away in an alley off the main street, a high-end teahouse catches your eye.

It's an old Chinese-style building, dimly lit by lanterns and red lights.

Upon entering, you see the interior is mostly private rooms lining both sides of a hallway. At the back, there is a small counter where a woman sits holding a kiseru pipe.

Touka

She exhales a cloud of smoke, almost like a sign to the surrounding customers not to talk to her right now.
