whoa!! you guys!
remember that shopping center heaven had us investigate last week? it CAUGHT FIRE three days after we checked it out!!! ━(◯Δ◯∥)━ン
and the papers say it could've been arson??
does anyone have any idea what could've happened there? did we miss something???
i only found a good luck charm taped inside one of the air ducts.....



oh and also hi to everyone i haven't met yet! my name's prompto. i've only been here a little while AS FAR AS I CAN REMEMBER so if you know me and i don't know you i'm really sorry if things seem weird and awkward
(꒪꒫꒪,,) it's not like i meant to forget, i swear
i heard these things happen sometimes?
but if we were friends we can totally be friends again if you give me a chance to kind of catch up!

I would have trouble believing in coincidence. The store obviously had enemies.

I didn't see any ayakashi myself, though, so there can't have been any very large ones around.

[photoshooter]

so if it wasn't ayakashi
what else could it have been?

[reformedsinner]

Human sabotage?

Not everything bad is caused by ayakashi, after all. Humans can do plenty on their own.

[photoshooter]

wait
normal humans can do magic too?
all the charms and stuff have to be some kind of magic, right? or they're some kind of supernatural, anyway

[reformedsinner]

Yes, humans can do magic. I don't think ayakashi make charms, in any case; they're not intelligent enough.

If it's not a human making charms, it might be a god, or their shinki.

[photoshooter]

man
none of these possibilities mean anything good
and we still don't know WHY that place was targeted

[reformedsinner]

I'd certainly prefer to hear it was just some corporate warfare involving magic than to hear it was the work of a god.

But we don't, indeed. I suppose we could look up the corporation that owns -- or owned -- the place, and search for enemies.

[photoshooter]

it was called the yamada department store
so i guess the yamadas owned it?
unless that was the name of the neighborhood, i don't know ┐(‘～`；)┌

[reformedsinner]

I would guess that it was the Yamada family, or Yamada business, yes.

I don't think it was the neighborhood name, but I suppose it could have been. That might be in the article.

[photoshooter]

yeah i'll get it to you asap
where's your temple? or you can come to ours if you want

[reformedsinner]

I'm actually out at the moment, but I can drop by your temple if you don't mind.

Where is it?

[photoshooter]

oh hang on

[And along with the address of Lucina's Temple, where most of the newer gods' abodes are located, Prompto also attaches a picture: a Roman-style temple of white stone surrounded by red lotus trees.]

i'll be there all day today!

[reformedsinner]

Thank you! I'll be there shortly. I won't take the article, but I'd at least like to read it.

[And maybe snap a photo or two, as well, to keep for closer examination.

He'll suit action to words, and be by knocking at the front door of Lucina's temple within half an hour.]

[photoshooter]

[It's Prompto who answers, perky as always.]

Hey! Hi, welcome to our place. Let me just get that article for you...

[He hops off to the side to give Hakkai space to come in and picks up the newspaper from where he set it aside.]

You can keep it if you want, I don't need it anymore. It doesn't have that much more information anyway.

[reformedsinner]

Oh my, are you sure? I don't mind just taking photos if you want to keep it yourself.

[He reaches out to take the newspaper, looking down to scan the article with an intent gaze.]

... But thank you, I do appreciate it!
