[Kubo privately wondered if Kyou would continue to wear the mask in person as in the video, but just as people politely don't ask about his eyepatch in general, he's not planning to ask about another person's unusual features.]
It's beautiful once you're down inside. A little strange, but still beautiful. It was my father's when he was here.
[He slides the shamisen around to his back as he stands, the Sword Unbreakable hanging from his belt, and picks up the bow to lead Kyou down into Beetle's caverns.]
I always practice archery down there. No one can accidentally walk in front of the arrows that way.
[He looks over his shoulder as he descends the stairs into the cool, damp caverns, nodding to Kyou an invitation to follow.
Down below the surface, the waterfalls fill the air with mist. Small flowers bloom in the moss that grows on everything. Stone bridges crisscross down to the bottom of the hollow, where the falling water rushes away into the dark depths in a shallow river. Each bridge disappears into a different cavern, the darkness suggesting great depth.
Nothing about this damp, cool place is particularly suitable for human habitation, though. Which makes it odder still that there's a track well worn down one of the bridges and into a cavern midway down the wall, where Kubo has pressed a path into the moss many times.]
I guess you must have been using a bow for a while.
[Kubo suggests it as he strings the bow, an activity which requires serious effort on his part. He's gotten stronger, and gets stronger every day in the Legion, but there's no getting around the fact that the bow is too big for him and almost too heavy for him to pull.]
