Hello. This is Midoriya Izuku for those of you who don't know me well. I've been talking with a few people, and it seems that while newly minted gods often get somebody to guide them through their arrival, shinki aren't so lucky.

I think it would be good if we could compile a resource for newly arrived shinki. There's no reason they need to be so confused upon their arrival.

As I'm not a shinki, I don't know everything that should go into it. Could those who are please say what they would have liked to know earlier?

Thank you for your time.

Exactly! I've been talking about this with a friend and both she and I think that there should be a pamphlet with information given to all new shinki.

It would be really helpful and then they'd be on equal footing at the start. Help them understand the situation, what's alright to ask and what's not alright to ask for safety reasons, and basic spells that are necessary and how to tell your god to try out working together in vessel form and stuff. And about ayakashi and fighting and stuff that becomes necessary to know as soon as you step out of your god's temple in the morning.

[ D2 started asking questions about the place they were in right away, but he knows some people didn't, and that some of the gods didn't tell their shinki things they really needed to know right away. (That had frustrated him, particularly because some of the shinki involved there were his friends.) ]

All of the information is out there, but it's easier to find when it's collected together in one place.

It's hard when the gods get somebody to answer questions and shinki don't necessarily have a god that can answer all of their questions. I'll note all of those down, thank you.

[smilingbullet]

Yeah. It's basic knowledge , or it should be, but not everyone are told about it and that's not good. It can leave a shinki completely defenseless. To have a compilation of it would be good.

Right, and in the same vein it would be good to have something that gods can get too, because while they get a run-down on the basic god stuff they should be told what they should make sure their shinki knows certain stuff. I don't know exactly what gods are told but it's like, about not telling any shinki that they know them if they do or something like that?

This not knowing can cause messes from both ends, and it's important to have the knowledge.

[fullcowl]

Right. It would be good if shinki know how they're able to defend themselves.

There's a native shinki that shows up for the new gods, and we can ask about things. We also get the basic rundown of what we're supposed to do and what we aren't. So it's unfair to have shinki get nothing but the god who might be trying to adjust themselves.

[smilingbullet]

Yeah and some don’t. Some haven’t been told a thing. That’s unfair and dangerous.

That’s really really unfair. Special treatment because you’re Gods. We’re even more confused and out of place than you guys, since we don’t have any memories, relationships or attachments to anything.

[fullcowl]

I wonder if they think all the gods are able to give that information to their shinki. When people arrive they're usually confused and disorientated for a while.

I'll work on this and make sure it gets sent out.

[smilingbullet]

If they think that, they’re ignorant. Of course that’s not possible. Maybe with the ones that have been here a while but not for the new ones.

Where do you intend to send it to, exactly?

[fullcowl]

I'll be talking to one of the native gods to see if there's a way we can get a place for them in the Meeting Hall.

[smilingbullet]

I see, that’s good. It’s something that we need and it should be available to all shinki. To be fair it would be good if the Gods got a copy to give the shinki just in case they didn’t see it, too.
