IZOU'S PALACE

[goei]

KYOTO BAKUMATSU PALACE
You find yourself in historical Kyoto at night. The city is shadowy and beautiful, elegant but hostile. It's a sophisticated city, but you don't belong there and it knows it. Everyone knows it. You are being watched.

Worst of all, a terrible demon haunts the streets of this powerful capital city.

Eli Walsh, Kirumi Tojo, Still Sunrise, Argenti, Yi Sang, Celeste, Mafuyu Asahina, and McGillis Fareed, do you dare journey into hell?

Hm...

( at least she gets to drop the act immediately. she'll let mcgillis do his listening in before reconvening. is there any newspapers or anything...? )

[goei]

[There's one on a nearby table!

Is Mafuyu looking for any info in particular?]

[beathollow]

( politics, current events, and a confirmation of the era! )

[goei]

[Sure!! For starters, the date on it is August 1st, 1863 (I know they didn't record years in that format back then in Japan but shh) There seems to be a lot of discussion about revolution and hostilities between anti and pro shogunate forces.

Also apparently a new Western Style restaurant is opening up in Kawaramachi!!! Hooray!!! Mafuyu may recognise that as a district in Kyoto.]

[beathollow]

...

Izou...?

( ... if no one stops her, she's taking this with her. )

[goei]

[Well, she's able to pick it up. So at least it's possible to interact with items here?

However once she does, one of the old shogi guys takes notice and shouts "stop! thief!!"]

[beathollow]

( oh'p, back to charmfuyu. mafuyu looks shocked, and then guilty, still speaking sweetly. )

O-oh, gosh, no... I wanted to show my father's friend an interesting article I saw, but when I went to go to him, he wasn't there. I was just going to look for him and then bring it back, I promise.

( that would be a 9 + 3. she'll burst out the waterworks if she has to too, don't test her- )

[goei]

[A 12 will do it! The old man's expression softens upon seeing the supposed thief is just a charming and sweet young lady... even if her style of dress is a bit odd.

He nods, before returning to his game. Newspaper acquired!

However, Mafuyu might also feel a shiver down her spine, and the distinct and sudden sensation that she is being watched.]

[beathollow]

( oh, it's just like mom. ... time to get to the others again before something else happens. )

[beathollow]

( as she promised she is also bringing the newspaper back once mcgillis is done looking at it!!! she's a good girl, ominous watching feeling!!! )

[goei]

[Unfortunately the ominous watching persists... though it feels a little less keen now. Maybe it will fade away with time.]
