The Day of Thunder

"You would be surprised at what one can do, Shang of the Saru," she says, smiling a little on how the sentence made Shang's name sound a touch musical. Holding out her bow with that slight hesitance remaining she holds it steadily. Warily looking from Shang to her bow and then back again. "Careful, ...

We have an entire RIVER of psilocybin, apparently.

I take it all back, this village is GREAT

Villagers just want to keep it all to themselves.

Yumi, almost childishly, rolls her eyes at the suggestion of giving over her weapons. Even going so far as to make a slight noise of disgust. However, "You ask me to give over myself, to take my bow," she shakes her head, "but fine- you may hold them Shang of the Saru. Your Air smells sweet enough."...

"A lightened spirit does not lack it's uses," she says, but loses a little of her confidence in the moment. Quickly adding, "I am here, however, for personal reasons. My Flame is diminished in regards to this village. I find myself facing struggles that I am at a loss on how to comprehend, but from ...

Yumi holds herself in that suspense after drinking the water, the taste of it was perhaps different but not so that it caused much alarm. Eyes narrowing she looks out into the water. Holding in that look for only a second before looking over toward Shang, a shrug. It was water- but then her head dip...

Yumi drank from the river here:

Yumi did not insult Shang by letting her words be repelled like water off a straw hat or cloak. However, as she listens Yumi's eyes linger forward toward the river itself. Perhaps she was foolish for this course of action. However, with suspicion lingering in the air and few answers afforded her thi...

Breaking off from her conversation with Aoyama, Yumi was not yet satisfied with what she knew. However, she knew enough that some answers before her were those that could not simply be sought on her own. For this next step she would need another. When you planned to risk your distrust of others agai...

As we are relying on social skills, but this is not a social encounter; would the first roll be affected by antisocial?

"There is much, but first if I may intercede myself without request," Yumi takes in a breath, changing her tone to one that was far more formal, polite. "May Earth bolster your daughter in these times. Whatever of my spirit that I might lend through that which binds to her, I do. Any child's recover...

"If you can walk and talk. I have no more time for idle chat with outsiders." She said as she moved past.

"I am quite capable," she offers, and follows behind Aoyama, only to take to her side after they leave the premises.

Still standing in the doorway Yumi did not move. Rude perhaps at first sight but, "You are the defender for this village, correct? Pardon the inopportune time but I have been seeking you. Perhaps you and I might speak elsewhere?" she asks, and in some manner of deference does not wait for an answer ...

A woman, bearing old armor and a kit of weaponry well used to the road steps into the entryway behind Aoyama. Instead of interrupting she watches for the moment. Given that the woman's demeanor wasn't all that jovial, seemed the better way to make a first impression. Though that was likely an excuse...

No rush, as you are busy with combat, but would it be possible to meet with Aooyama on Day 4?

Or perhaps just make a house call and see who answers.

Yumi nods, "Thank you for your Flame, your Air, and your grace Shang of the Saru. This pleasure was all mine. May we meet under a similarly pleasant circumstance again," she offers with the slightest tough of a smile as she dips her head. Without further fanfare Yumi would depart toward the directio...

"I am not so eager to be used as a pair of simple hands in the doings of others," she says, but sighs. "There is of course willingness I have here in these trying times that I might not otherwise have had. Though, if I can help to refine the skills of others who follow my path then I am most certain...

Good luck. Try not to die, everyone. Umm...and maybe doctor the crow. The fox might be annoyed if someone else got that kill.;p

I will do the best doctoring ever done!

Ko believes in you.

"Air guides the quickness of the body much as the softness of spirit," she says, dropping into that respectful tone of a teacher. "Air serves you in how it carries your word, and I would expect your art well- I have seen that already here often with the way you speak. Yet it does not only guide thes...

Upon that suggestion Yumi looks past Shang, over her shoulder into the fog as to focus her thought. Letting the words impact against a quickly raised shield, but she laughs gently, "Perhaps that is the case. If this bow can be of any aid to our realm then my part will be played. Skills are best used...

"Your Air does serve you quite well," she say. Staring into the space over Shang's shoulder in contemplation. One second, two. "My Flame to share may not be easy to bear. However, I feel I should offer it to you all the same. Everything wishes to grow, loving things like the plants around us and we ...
