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?

[Goddamn, French Man.

Yeah! He manages to carefully navigate the crowd without bumping into anyone!!! And reaches the shadowy figure. They hold out another guard piece.]

All that demon does is copy others. I'm faster than him, I could take him down if I wanted. But you should.

[Nobody likes this demon, damn.]

[ This demon...Argenti thinks by now it is unavoidable that they are attributing such a title to Izou himself. Even if he is not a true monster like one of the Triple Demons.

Not a very flattering title to have, even so - neither is Manslayer, but still. ]

You sound quite familiar with him. Is there anymore you can tell me?

[ Argenti gently takes the guard piece regardless. They are still acting out a part after all, it seems, and he can do this much. ]

[The shadow man is quiet a moment, but then states;]

That depends on what you want to know in particular.

[beautifulknight]

[ . . .

....

What does he even ask. Uh...... ]

...Where is he right now?

[ NAILED IT. ]

[goei]

[The shadow points to the guard piece he's just given Argenti.]

Assembled, the tsuba will return to its master.

[That's the magnet power it seems.]

[beautifulknight]

[ Read that as tuba...anyway, this really does sound like some kind of big puzzle. ]

Then, one more question for you:

Is there anything you are envious of, in regards to this demon's position or circumstance?

[goei]

[The shadow man scoffs.]

That demon is a sad, pitiful creature. I see through his act.

[The the shadow turns on his heel to walk away, probably because he sees that shinsengumi guy over there. Yikes.]

[beautifulknight]

[ ...

Anyway, speaking of the others, better check and see how they're doing. ]

[Some sort of rotting corpse man is trying to hit Sunrise with a sword. Have fun!]
