[quote=CirusArvennicus] I have an explanation for how a foreigner would be present~!Washed up on the shores of Hokkaido, kindly natives took care of her and nursed her back to health, and now she's gone to the 'mainland' (*cough* Hahaha, calling Honshu the mainland...). If anyone would have what she needs to get back to where she came from, it would probably be the guys on Honshu. [/quote] Kyushu is considerably more likely than Hokkaido. Also, for most of Japan's history, [i]especially[/i] this part, it was independent.* XD *Of imperial control, at least. It's more controlled the more modern you get.
