Chimper #1775
Hiiragi is the only soul who fishes in The Underworld. They sit patiently by pools of black slosh or hissing lava, their meow cap a comical sight against the crimson glow of the sky. This peculiar pilgrimage began with a quiet wager. Maneki-neko claimed that no fortune, no speck of good luck, could ever be found in such a blighted realm. Hiiragi, ever playful, took the bet. Their fishing rod isn't baited for monstrous creatures, but for glimmers of what was lost. Sometimes the line pulls up a scorched coin with a forgotten emperor's face; other times, a shard of crystal that hums a quiet song. Each find is a tiny victory, a secret shared only with the lucky cat who watches from afar.
