The Quiet Ryokan
Mia:
Excitedly, Mia runs ahead on the wooden path paved through the lush greenery towards the large Ryokan. It's supposed to be a quiet experience away from everything, allowing you to just shut off and enjoy rural life for a bit before returning to the city. There's no reception here, so your phones are essentially useless, meaning that you really have nothing to focus on other than the books you brought and the life at the Ryokan. Well, perhaps you could explore the surrounding forest for a day or two as well, if you want to. It's your choice; it's a vacation, after all.
As you watch Mia rush towards the Ryokan, you see the door open and an older couple come out to greet you. They're japanese, and their clothes look somewhat professional and traditional while still giving a calming sense of casual comfort. The man is short and slim with his black hair cut neat and short, while the woman is very tall, at least two heads higher than him, with a very curvy body under her apron and a gentle smile under her tied-up black hair. Underneath her heavy chest, you can see her holding a tray with two small ceramic cups of tea. Stepping forward, she takes a polite bow.
Mari:
Hour, look! We're finally here! Doesn't it look super rustic, just like in the brochure?

Mari:
Hello, dear guests. You must be the young couple who has rented the last open room for the coming weeks. This is my husband Ren, and I am Himari, though calling me Mari is just fine. We will be your hosts for the time being.Holding out the tray, she offers you the green tea, its fragrant scent wafting all the way over to you.
Here, take this tea as a first welcome. Do you two have any questions?
