The Day of Thunder

Nao had withdrawn a bit, to watch everyone. She smiled at the various interactions, but her thoughts were clearly elsewhere.

"Any time, Akodo-san. We're all in this together."

Good People of Blue Lotus Village, Shortly after arriving here, I encountered a creature in a dream. It appeared to be a woman made of dark stone, wreathed in green fire that seemed to emerge from within her form. Given the nature of dreams and the things that lurk within them, however, she could a...

It had been a long morning, researching a new spell and crafting it for the purposes of one of the four scrolls. There was more to do, however, a letter to the villagers had been requested. Spellcraft wasn't the right mindset for such a task. So, Nao had come to bathe, relax and recenter herself. - ...

"If something is worth doing, it doesn't matter how hard it is." she nodded. "Especially what will need to be done here."

That works with the way Nao was thinking about it, a rising vortex. I was picturing more of a targeted updraft, but a wind wall works.

I'm open to ideas. It's ML 3.

"Considering where we live, that may well be a need." she nodded. "The Crab defend the north, but there is much in the mountains that we have yet to discover."

"It's unfortunate." she nodded. "However this ends, it will be difficult for everyone involved."

"Ryoshun-san. They will need your guidance, as the only shugenja among them. I would offer you my own guidance, but it's nothing you haven't heard before. The enemy lies. But you were chosen, and we all see the why of it. You may doubt your ability to serve as Knowledge. Just remember that once, a ...

Nao cheered. And, as the music began, she danced.

We are missing the Craft: Scroll, Lore: Spirit Realms, and Earth spell. Oh, I should have done the Spirit Realms roll instead of Caligraphy. If the dicepool is the same, we could ask for it to count as Spirit Realms? :) I decided to just roll it in addition to the others. Success with 2 raises.

The only difference is emphasis, but there were no 1s in the roll.

The chaos within her mind stopped when Yukara touched her. Nao focused on the woman and smiled.

"You are worthy Yukara-san. I know your story will be great abd will inspire greatness. It is comforting to know one such as you will be with my family."

She wanted to day something. Anything. But, there were no words to express the maelstrom of thoughts and emotion within her.
