Mimihimeyouko

The wizards of The Crystal Highlands of Armaria claim Mimihimeyouko's war paint has never seen a real battle. They say it's mixed daily with pigments crushed from local monoliths, a ritual of intense focus applied not for enemies, but for lunch. Inspired by stories of Yuji's courage before undertaking a life-staked mission, Mimihimeyouko prepares for their own daily campaign against an empty stomach. Their gleeful eyes track every chop of a vegetable, their mouth forming a shocked 'o' when the steaming bowl is finally presented. The ferocity others reserve for combat, they dedicate entirely to the art of a well-earned meal. Once the bowl is empty, they wipe their face clean, the fierce warrior dissolving back into a calm student until the next hunger calls.
