"Honestly, if he has a lot of spiritual insight, I might like to see if he's willing to help actively," she said thoughtfully, then shrugged. "We'll see. I look forward to meeting him."

“I’ll try to put in a good word.” She said with a smile.

The dragon came back into view, holding a pot, but kept a respectable distance

''I am sorry to interrupt again but might I join you all this time? I brought rice to go along with the rubing.''

Chouri motioned him over with a warm smile. "Please, Wu-sama, join us."

''Thank you kindly'' he set up the pot and a few clean bowls in the table ''Rice with some wild herbs for a twist''

“What do you think about all this Wu-sama?” Han-Hei asked.

“Why is this village so unique?”

Norikage waited to see what the Dragon would say. He slipped his mask up now that he'd finished the offered breakfast.

''I hold no knowledge over this question. I can presume a few things by way of extrapolation but not much more.''

He reached to get a bowl of rice

''The Ayakashi who became the Yuzuru and the Saru, had a traditionnal connection to Chikushdo and...'' he searched his memory ''...Sakkaku has well? It is possible that the people who once lived here had a similar connection to Yume-do. Either the barrier with the realm is thinner and that's why they settled here or their rituals and practices made it thinner over time...who knows?''

Chouri listened nodding, pressing her fingers to her lips. "An interesting theory... I suppose it would make some sense."

She doesn't know? Or she's playing along...?

He wondered which it was. He studied the girl a short moment as others began speaking again.

Clearly she didn't know. All of his assessment so far would suggest that she has the naivete of youth, and wears her heart on her sleeve as one might expect from that.

Clearly he didn't study her long enough. Still, it wasn't like he would roll over and accept things so easily. Being able to read people was an important skill, being too certain you could read people was a horrible curse.

He narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment. It was likely she didn't know everything, and may not mean them harm either. He'd just have to wait to see if he was right or wrong about that.

"Well you have writings about the festival, don't you? The instructions on the festival, they don't talk about that sort of thing?" He scratched the back of his head. "Possibly a warning? It's unlike people to leave information behind without any sort of context, don't you think?"

Chouri sighed, shaking her head. "Bayushi-sama has not dug through many ruins, I take it?" she says with a small smile. "It feels like one finds nothing but out of context information."

''On that note I agree that Shinsei-sama could be of use.'' the dragon added ''So could Jiyo Sora-sama. The imperial librarian I told you about, Lady Chouri''

Post by **Bayushi Norikage** » Wed Oct 25, 2023 10:32 pm

Lady Chouri...? Is this guy getting tucked in by her at night or something?

He decided to address what was said instead of what he thought about it.

"Jiyo Sora-dono is here? Well, that's something", Norikage said appreciably. "He's likely gotten old now, so he's probably slowed down to killing ten bandits a day instead of thirty."

She chuckled a little at that. "As absorbed as I've been in research and helping out here, even I've heard that name."

“I know him quite well… If you’re comfortable with him coming too, I can invite him.” She offered.

''Considering he descended into hell and came back, Jiyo-sama might also have valuable insight into preparing ourselves against the evil''

Post by **Shiba Kumori** » Thu Oct 26, 2023 2:25 pm

Insightful was never the word I’d attach to Sora… Opinionated? Yes… Insightful? No…

Han-Hei simply nodded her support. The more people who could see the shrine, the better.

Norikage made a note to ask Han-Hei about how she knew Jiyo Sora 'quite well', but didn't know at the time he'd be too high to think about it later.
