The Stone Graveyard |
|
|
|
On our way back from one of our many adventures, Enishi, Chima, and I came across this building that had TONS of stone staues and figures in front of it. The man inside told us that many older homes have stone figures in their yards and when new families move in they normally like them removed because they can contain "spirits". He didn't tell us exactly how he makes his money, but I am assuming he charges to haul things away and sells the statues to those who aren't too particularily concerned about rock spirits. |

This is Ebisu, one of the Seven Lucky Gods, and he looks after fisherman. This roly-poly guy also has a beer named after him. Makes sense though, beer and fisherman. |

Just a few cute little figures. I really like the kappa, the duck billed spiky hair creature, on the right. They are water sprites that are known to be good to humans when they are not involved in various impish activities. |
