The boatwrights of Waterfall City will tell you that Hyuuka keeps three full buckets of river water by their market stall at all times, even during a downpour. It wasn't always this way. They arrived determined to sell their masterpiece: self-warming bento boxes, gently heated by the embers that perpetually smolder on their back. Their first sales pitch was going brilliantly until an excited customer gave them a hearty slap on the back. The resulting flare of surprised flame didn't just singe the customer's sleeve; it flash-fried an entire crate of prize-winning koi from the stall next door. Mortified, Hyuuka paid for the fish, abandoned the bento box business, and earned a new title. These days, they only sell pre-soaked driftwood. It’s not a great living, but the insurance is much cheaper.
