IZOU'S PALACE

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?

[ And then you just broke down crying!!

Well, not just. McGillis is still very much bleeding and hurting - he just doesn't really care about all that yet. He's had worse anyway.]


And you weren't honest about it, were you? It was posturing, barking. 'Punishing sinners'? That's not you, that's not your bare self. That is not the power you believe in.

[ Well, that actually gets a thin smile out of McGillis? ]

I'm not about to try and change your mind on that matter.

It's impossible to truly escape yourself. One's past will always be etched into one's being.

Thus the path you took seems to be the harder one to me... and futile too.

Progress as yourself instead.

I do.

[ After he just saw absolutely all your dirty laundry, he'll give you that much. ]

But you're going to have to try harder to find out.
