山 - Mountain
Three jagged peaks rise under a misty sunrise - the middle peak towers like a proud sentinel, flanked by smaller companions.
A yamabiko (mountain echo) bounces your shout, “Ya-ma!” off the rocks, answering back with a playful “Ma!”
Tengu wings flutter on the central peak, guarding hidden shrines tucked into craggy ledges.
Below, mossy streams gurgle ゴツゴツ over stones, while cherry blossoms drift from foothills, brushing the rugged slopes.
Imagine pilgrims climbing during 山開き, lanterns bobbing, incense curling in the crisp air - the three peaks forming the unmistakable shape of 山, a mountain standing proud through history, art, and legend.
