This picture was inspired by this song: Touhou - Bad Apple (Rockleetist & Ashe)

Nezumi (Rat daimyou) wasn't always the 77 year old "wise man", you know.
He is aroud 24 here and is getting tired of the life he is leading: distrust, vengeance, bitterness. But he can't escape until Yumie, a childhood friend appears in his life again.

The bg faces were based on actual noh masks. (did you know that based on what angle you look at them from they display different emotions? Wow...)
