Omitsu's letter to Joe Hayabusa
Your boy is growing up well. As the guardian of the children of the village, I strive to treat all of them with equal love and care, but he grows to resemble you more with each passing day.
Oh, I know I must sound so foolish for saying that...

- 光 - "light".
- 蜜 - "honey".
- 美津 - "beautiful" (美) (mi) and "haven, port, harbor, ferry" (津) (tsu).
