Songs on a shamisen outside of deep clay windows. The gnarled branches of the blossom trees which bring beautiful flowers every spring hang over the walls, tastefully arranged so not a single bud is out of place.<br/><br/>A small koi pond lay to the left of this garden, across from the blossom tree. A platform separates this pond into two, allowing visitors to cross with ease. Bamboo plants are to the southern end of this place, large, but trimmed, so not to look too wild.<br/><br/>And finally, on the large, empty wall of the northernmost area in the garden, carefully painted, in bright red paint, is the single character: 螢.<br/><br/>This is the House of Red Fireflies. A bathhouse, an inn, a brothel. A huge oriental castle that seems to be lavishly decorated, beautiful beyond imagination. It is here, where warriors from across the land come to rest themselves, perhaps have a woman for the night, and run away from the rest of the world.<br/><br/>Men come here and leave telling tales of how the House of Red Fireflies is amazing, perfect, magical. They do not know how right they are.<br/><br/>Because it's never just that perfect, right? This place is, in secret, an entire house full of monsters. Working to get paid, like any other human. They are the bath house girls, the cooks, the maids, the women whom you will sleep with. It's the entire staff, working for a single entity, a dark mass of cloud named Omi.<br/><br/>He is the founder of this place, and a monster just like all the other staff. Whether you are a staff member working here, a traveling warrior, or a human seeking work, the House of Red Fireflies will be a place you never forget.<br/><br/>螢螢螢螢螢螢螢螢螢螢<br/><br/>Profiles: http://bluemoonroleplaying.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=39880&pid=1061144#pid1061144<br/><br/>OOC: http://bluemoonroleplaying.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=39879<br/><br/>螢螢螢螢螢螢螢螢螢螢<br/><br/><b>.:RULES:.</b><br/><br/>1.
