As their eyes met, Yuki fled back to rendezvous with the pack and inform about that encounter. That first contact was favored by fate-at least that was what Maki later said she believed-became the turning point in Yuki’s life.
Just as sunset approached from the side of the neighboring mountains, she arrived at the kitsune layer. Even though tired from the long journey from the temple to the mountains, she rushed to the place where Maki rested and explained in a detailed report what had occurred.
While darkness took over the skies and the moon shined amongst its companion stars, they convened their daily meeting to listen to Yuki’s report. As she narrated the day’s events at the temple, many of the kitsune were stunned over such a close encounter between Yuki and the princess. After a moment of silence, Yuki rose and said “As our eyes met, I felt her heart calling out to mines. I felt no threat from her……………rather a warm feeling. I really wanted to get closer. It felt like another part of me was calling my return”-those words were engraved in the memory of those present, and kept in the heart of everyone that heard and narrated it.
