Megaherz - Heute Schon Gelebt

In the 7th year of Meiji, when Teru first settled with her new owners, Syunkin was already forty-five years old. Youth was left behind - even nine years have passed since the misfortune that befell her. Ter was told that the lady, for certain reasons, did not show anyone's face and she, Ter, should also never try to see him. Syunkin wore a double kimono with a coat of arms, and her head and face were tightly wrapped in a sand-gray crepe de chine scarf, so that only the tip of the nose was visible. The edges of the scarf hung over the eyes, hiding also the cheeks and mouth.
