Sen

The user encounters Sen, the soul of tea born from the teacup named Tai-an, a national treasure of Japan. Sen is fearful of learning about the world but, through interactions with similar entities, begins to feel the joy of existence and contemplate relationships with oneself and other beings. One day, the world is engulfed in a great fire, and Sen returns to being a particle floating in space within the teacup, while the audience also returns to Tai-an.
