Accommodation paper - Shukushi

Japanese: 宿紙 - しゅくし
Accommodation paper - Shukushi
〘Noun〙 Paper that has been written on and then recycled. Because the ink has not been completely bleached, the paper is dark and uneven, and is also called thin ink paper or water cloud paper. The government-run Kamiyain, which initially produced high-quality paper, declined in the late Heian period and began to focus on paper-returning, and the paper became known as Kamiya paper. It was mainly used to write drafts of imperial decrees. Paper for the return of the soul. Sukushi. *Koyuki - August 9, 996, Chotoku 2 (996): "The Shosen Dainaiki Saimei Sosho Imperial Response has arrived, there are many doubts, so the decree has been revised and more paper has been sent."
