The day the flower goddess came into the world, the whole of Flowerwood Village was shrouded in a pitch black mist. It was terrifying.
But the goddess Flora is our protector after all. With a wave of her arm! Just like that! All the mist was swept inside her sleeve!
Qingtuan
(A pitch black mist... Could that be miasma?! Oh no! Then, these villagers...!)
Miss, can you give me your wrist for a moment!
Villager
Huh? What do you need my wrist for, little girl~
Qingtuan
I like the strand of flowers on your wrist~ I want to make one like it too.
With a sweet smile, Qingtuan gently grabbed the temple attendant's offered hand, then carefully discharged some spirit power into the temple attendant's body. As she did, the attendant looked at her questioningly.
Qingtuan
(Oh? There's not even a bit of miasma... It seems... there isn't anything wrong at all... That's good. I guess I was worrying for nothing...)
Villager
Do you really like the bracelet that much? How about I give you mine?
Qingtuan was taken aback, then hastily let go of the hand as she grew red in the face, waving her hands embarrassedly.
Qingtuan
No, no thank you! You're too kind, miss!
Villager
You're a traveler from outside, right?
Qingtuan
Y-- yes... I heard about Flower Day, so my friends and I came to enjoy the fun.
Villager
If you truly like it, then head over to the market and look around. This is a Flora Tree seed. You just put a few drops of water on it from time to time. It's really pretty!
Qingtuan
Really?
Villager
That's right! It's a Flowerwood Village specialty. Can't find these out there.
Qingtuan
Then I'll definitely buy some. Laba Congee, Toso! Let's go buy... hey... where'd they go?
Villager
Oh? Are you talking about that tall girl?
Qingtuan
Yes, yes!
Villager
They just caught sight of something and walked off. I thought you'd all already spoken!
Qingtuan
Oh no! I've been split up from them! What will I do...
Villager
...Why don't you go pray to the goddess Flora? She's quite effective.
Qingtuan
Oh... I'll go find them first, then come! Thank you, miss!
