Has anybody seen Vector since that last time he posted? It sounded like he was going to head out right away. And I think he should have been back by now.

Also, does anybody know anything about what Hell is like here? Or how he would've gotten in?

I haven't been able to figure out how to get to the Summons Department to ask yet. I guess I lost that access along with the promotion.

So anyway, it'd be great if you could help! I'll owe you one! Thanks!

Okay, if you say so! I still think it looks weird, though.

We could ask the heavens, but I don't know if I could trust their answer.

They've said some weird stuff, you know.

You don't need to trust their answer to gain information from it. I wonder what their thoughts would be on a god venturing into hell, anyway? Is that something they would discourage? Perhaps they'd be glad to lose a troublesome god to a place like that, kukukuku. [definitely not an evil laugh]

Also, would Vector have known how to get to hell on his own? Or would he have had to find that information from another source? If it's the latter, you could also try tracking down the informant.

[...definitely an evil laugh.]

There's myths about it. He could've found any of those.

[Tsuzuki's never tried getting to Yomi-no-kuni himself, so he's not entirely sure if those myths are accurate about the location of the entrance -- Ise's not that small a place, there's probably more caves with boulders in front of them than you'd think.

But if Vector'd been looking before he made that post, he could've found it, sure. He had empathic powers of his own.]

I guess we could ask.

[He's not asking permission to go from the Heavens, though. Even if they said no, he'd still want to.]

Myths aren't the most reliable source, that's why they're considered myths and not facts. Stories can also conflict with eachother. For example, "hell" in one set of beliefs could be in a completely different location than it is in another set of beliefs, so which one is correct? Or perhaps the location has been moved but the myths continue to reference the old location. There are many possibilities to consider.

Following the myths surrounding the location wouldn't be a bad place to start, though it would be faster to find an older god who would be able to pinpoint the location from personal experience. Still, where Vector ended up depends entirely on where he got his information from.

[sweetdeath]

Too bad we can't ask him, huh?

That's a good point, though. I can check with Bishamon and Yato, plus, see if his shinki knows anything about what kind of research he was doing. Thanks.

Do be sure to share the results if you find anything. Such information could be useful someday, or if your little trip is a failure and others need to plan a counter-rescue. [but mostly because he finds it interesting...]

[sweetdeath]

Sure. Just ask anytime.

["If your little trip is a failure." Well, that's not encouraging. Tsuzuki winces.]
