Other than looking at the plants, there really wasn't much else Seishin could do but wander around. Sotoba had been surrounded by fir trees that eradicated every other plant species, and a priest was never meant to have anything to do with cultivating those trees of death.

He must have looked uncertain what to do with the plants, because it wasn't long before a boy with spiky, brown hair approached him. Seishin turned his head, and offered a friendly smile.

"I guess gardening isn't a very popular activity among the patients, is it?" he commented.
