Beginnings of 2020 - Haru and the Borrowers

 Haru and the Borrowers

Being involved with the Bureau never failed to bring surprises to Yoshioka Haru. Just when she thought that there couldn’t be something new, something new showws up at the Bureau’s doorstep.

 

Having just found yet another route to the Sanctuary from the Crossroads, Haru bounded up the Cat Bureau door. “Good Morning, Baron!”

 

Baron Humbert von Girkkengen emerged from the door. “Good Morning, Haru! You’re just in time.”

 

“Another case so soon?”

 

“Yes. It has to do with Borrowers.”

 

“Borrowers?”

 

“Come in and have some tea. I’ll explain.”

 

 

The tea was exquisite as ever, but Haru found the concept of small humanoids subsisting off things humans wouldn’t miss difficult to take. “It is strange, that we would miss them,” she said after the Baron had explained.

 

“A letter from a Borrower has found it’s way to the Bureau,” Baron said as he handed the letter in question, along with a magnifying glass to Haru.

 

Haru read the letter.
