I do not think this is the time for beach parties. Half of us cannot remember who we are. Those of us who know a shinki's past could kill them with a single word, without ever meaning for them to come to harm. This should not be accepted as normal without so much as an explanation as to why it is necessary.

What reason could there possibly be to strip someone of all memory?

Why does nobody seem to know what is going on?

Nothin beyond the generic "don't ask about your past" shit.

Apparently Gods have a... natural inclination to NOT reveal anything to their shinki. My gods said something like that. Like a bad feeling in the pits of their stomachs. But hell, I don't know if that applies to gods who aren't bonded to a particular shinki.

this place is garbage. get used to it

[That again--

[Maybe the whole mess with Yoon had simply happened too fast.]

I felt that with my friends. I did not realize it was anything more than concern, when it seemed simply natural, but I have heard that shinki feel the same way, when contemplating their past. It hardly seems right that this place should be so keen on giving us all warnings, and so reluctant to explain why they exist.

Who fuckin knows, man. I sure don't. I'm just a ~lowly shinki~

And yet we who are called gods know no more, and would do well to remember it. In the face of the beings behind this, we are all entirely pitiful.
