I think we have enough void-recoverers but Shang also has the ability to do it as well. Once per day, however but for three people! Just getting pitching that in there!

Yukara will need void recover D4, so do we have a shared tea party somewhere we want to shoot magic void points and teacups at each other?

For clarity sake, I will attach here the letter I sent the daimyos and Sora regarding what was found in the recon mission. I recommended a course for purification of the cave so just leaving that in the open:
"Minna-samas,

The recon mission was a success. We managed to identify several ambush spots and placed signaling traps in case the enemy decides to use those avenues to attack us.

Furthermore, we uncovered a cave filled with veins and deposits of dreamstone. The influence of the dreamstone seemed to be seeping into the water. We did not explore further as the sheer pressure exerted by such magnitudes of dreamstone made us feel extremely drowsy and, as such, it was best to retreat and inform the rest of the camp.

I wholeheartedly recommend that shugenja be sent to this cave in order to purify or seal the cave. Such a menace so near to the village is a dangerous neighbor. If such course is chosen I do not mind going and protecting any of the priests while they perform their rituals. I would also recommend any of the honorable samurai that accompanied me, Nanzi Ai, Togashi Satsuki, Hisomu Goju and Otomo Akutou.

Attached I have put a map detailing the location of the cave as well as of the traps that we have placed.

Hiruma Naraku"

Shugenja who can cast Water spells (like Reflections of Pan Ku) and/or are certified Rocks Experts, on D4 Otaku will want to put together a hazmat investigation team for the dreamstone cavern/lake that the scouting team found D3. Quite possibly this has something to do with whatever's wrong with the river, too. If you're interested, let me know?

Not limited to water/earth capable shugenja, other sorts of expertise could be useful too, but I figured you all would be especially interested. Probably don't want more than 4-5 people total so it doesn't get bonkers crowded.

I don't mind being there to give some insights and to help plan. I do have spellcraft as well.

Reo is definitely going to go, maybe will tag along if the group isn't too unweildy

Had already asked Canary for a meeting yday with her. Unsure if Wu would be there, had thought 1 on 1 but I'm open to anything :D

Strong on the earth side of things. Slow on the posting side. But game. I do think you likely want someone with Dreamstone knowledge since it's not general info.

Yeah, definitely (Reo, Naraku... who else has that?)

Tai would be an obvious choice for cave/mine/stone knowledge generally though!

The cave does sound exactly in line with an answer I got to 'how can the River be helped', so I'd be interested!

Water-focused with at least some combat utility (at least hopefully), but I could sit out or just provide some support in advance (Silent Waters available opens a few doors!) if others are more directly involved.

I expect investigation rather than ambush, though of course Canary and Tyrus could always surprise us. :?

Let's hope you're right!

Tae-soo is rather decent at Investigation, so might be a good choice in that regard.

Sounds like Tai and Tae-soo are the best for this. I'm weaker with water and average with earth.
