Shadow
The sun rises over the capital, shines down on your hair, and casts a long shadow on the ground in front of you.
Feel the heat of the sun on your back as you look down over your capital, your long hair blowing over your shoulder. Your shadow stretches in front of you and it's honestly pretty impressive.

In the shade from your shadow you see a small acorn (えい) laying on the ground. You're about to reach down and pick it up when you realize that your shadow is keeping this little acorn from growing up big and strong.
What do you do? Keep standing here, admiring the view and casting this shadow on the acorn. Or do you move and let the acorn grow, becoming a tree that can cast its own shadow on your capital.
