**PART 6: The New Pact**
When they returned, the sky was neither blue nor gray - but silver. Balanced. It rained gently, like a whisper.
Airi no longer held the burden alone. She, Hina, and another Weather Maiden in Kyoto shared it - linked by ritual, memory, and understanding.

Hina and Hodaka re-opened Amano Kitchen. They sold ramen beneath a clear tarp roof. People came from all over to eat, laugh, and glimpse the girl who once saved the sky.

Hina laughed, eyes wet with joy.
And above them, the clouds held back.
