This tiny creature was taking a nap in Sakuya's shirt on his journey to master the principles of calligraphy.  That journey took a detour when he decided that he liked Kamiki Village--he has resided there ever since.  The villagers may consider him ill-mannered, but he is one of the top calligraphers in the land.
