Mitsuna stirred the bubbling pot with their carved cane, the fragrant steam fogging their shades despite the freezing winds whipping through the bamboo-lined street. The recipe was a gift from Pinku, who presented it not as food, but as forbidden ‘culinary technology’ meant to bolster the city's defenses. Mitsuna, ever determined, took this duty with the utmost gravity. The ramen hat they wore was not for show; Pinku had called it an ‘Energy Conduction Unit,’ and Mitsuna treated it as such. Other guards praised the ‘inspiring aroma of vigilance’ that drifted from their post. The Panda Council, tasting the broth, called it a masterpiece of morale. They all started calling Mitsuna ‘the Stirring,’ for the constant, reassuring motion of their cane in the pot, a symbol of their tireless watch. Mitsuna just thought they were deploying tactical soup.
