My room was located at the very top of the Castle, as far away as possible from the main areas. Out of sight, out of mind, I suppose. I used to share the room with my mother, though it's all mine now sadly. The room contained tatami floors, a large folded futon, a set of drawers, a charcoal kotatsu, a large cushion, and a bookcase packed with books. Feeling especially tired, I worked my body to exhaustion doing basic push-ups, situps, planks and squats until I couldn't feel my limbs, unfolded my futon and let my dreams take me.
