I wish I could convey to you the simplicity—the lack of affectation—of this couple who had come to place an inscribed wooden slat in the cat cemetery so their cat Tora would be protected.

So they had to come there, both of them, under the rain, to perform the rite that would repair the web of time where it had been broken.
