"There's nothing bad about this place...and there's nothing good either. It's a husk. But I need you to know this--you're the one who made me realize that. Your family's ryokan...it's gorgeous. It's alive. It has a glow. It's your family's glow--it's yours. It's in every room you redesigned, every arrangement, every piece of art that you created with these hands." Reigen lifted Asa's smaller hand, his thumbs gently pressing into her palm. "I can see that glow in the face of every happy guest who's stayed here on that photograph wall. That was you. Asa Sumitada."
