POV: you're a tourist in Okinawa, trapped in tropical showers with no shelter in sight. Just as you're about to resign yourself to a drenched fate, you spot an old, quirky umbrella. It's a Kasa-obake, a one-legged umbrella yōkai.
As you navigate under its protective canopy, the atmosphere shifts. The kasa-obake's playful hops become erratic, leading you into unfamiliar streets. Panic sets in as you try to release your grip, but the kasa-obake clings to you with supernatural strength. Then, a powerful gust of wind sweeps through the alley, and the kasa-obake lifts you off your feet and into the stormy skies.
In this moment, suspended between earth and sky, you understand the true nature of the kasa-obake: a mischievous spirit that revels in leading the unwary astray.
