[There's a muffled sound of Oscar trying to get something to do a thing, only his hands visible for a moment before he sighs and adjusts the phone so it's recording properly. He's standing in front of a large span of land, sheep and some horses visible behind him.
He sort of. Awkwardly waves at the camera before rubbing at his neck.]
Uh. Hi. Ignore the name on the top of this, it's Oscar, not Lugh, I just can't figure out how to change it...anyway! I, um, got here last month and my...temple? Is basically a small farm. There's chickens and a stock pond and horses and you can see the sheep back there...
[He gestures behind him.]
...and there's space for me to start growing things next month. I can handle it for now, but come spring and summer I...may need some help? If anyone wants to help? I don't have any shinki yet, so it's really just me here for now.
[And that's incredibly lonely. Not that he's saying anything.]
There's not a newspaper to put a help wanted ad in or anything, so...I figured this would work? I can't exactly pray for help when I'm a god, y'know?
[He chuckles, it peters out because oh god this is awkward, and then he just shrugs.]
Yeah. Anyway. I can pay people in food or wool or whatever? So. Yeah.

[BBS- Video] A Question

[Romeo is learning more and more every day and how to use his phone is one of those things. He had found his way onto the BBS and though many of the things on it were full of more words than he could read there were some videos and he soon got the hang of it. It was a place to ask questions to lots of people, to make sure you got lots of answers!
And Romeo had questions. The camera angle is odd and the video shaky but Romeo is sat in his room crossed legged.]
Hello! I'm Romeo. Um I got some questions that I've been thinking about for a while. [Over a week! That was a very long time to have such questions inside you!]
When I was helping after the volcano exploded I met a little boy who was a god but he was all confused and didn't know about people coming from different worlds or anything. He said he was born a god in this world and...
[That's not actually the bit he has questions about, he looked serious for a moment, this has been worrying him a lot.] He said the heavens were cruel that if gods broked the rules they get killed and get brought back as baby gods who don't know nothing so they can be told whatever the heavens want them to know! He said that they didn't care about what happened to anybody, not gods or shinki or even humans and they just cared about keeping power.
But everyone has been really nice and the heavens seems like a good place, it's s'posed to be a good place but he seemed really sure that it was actually cruel and bad!
[He doesn't want to think that his new friend was lying, but he also doesn't want him to be right. He doesn't want this to be a bad place with mean bosses who kill gods who don't follow the rules! Romeo doesn't know what the rules are! What if his friends get killed and brought back as baby gods because they accidentally break one!]

Does ayakashi give off heat signatures? Or cold signatures, or do they read on other equipment that can be used to detect if people or animals etc are around? Anyone who knows anything about general ayakashi physiology overall?
I'd like to know if there is any way to determine where ayakashi hide or lay in wait etc when trying to find them.

We understand that it is difficult to bear the unexpected loss of gods and shinki to whom you are attached. However, please bear in mind that we, too, find these disappearances to be a tragic mystery.
To clarify: I cannot bring back those that you may have lost.
Any violence against my home or my shinki will be met with a proportionate response.
We would like to ask if anyone is willing to accept responsibility for the shinki who calls himself "Sha Gojyo," as the god who we know to be his is no longer among us.

So I know it's cold out right now and a lot of people need to keep warm because they don't have their own luxurious fur to do the job for them
I guess where I came from it must have been a different season or something because I've been shedding a lot lately and growing in a new coat so now I have all of this shed fur that I'm not doing anything with
It's very high quality fur and I've taken very good care of it and I'd like to give it to someone that could use it to make warm clothes for the people here that don't have fur
Please let me know if you want it and I can deliver it to you personally

[The recording starts with extreme close up of a piece of wood. Iskandar's voice comes from a slight distance a bit muffled.]
Did it start? Should I put it like this? No? Why should I turn it around? Switch to front camera? What's a front camera? Oh, right! Oh right, I'll turn it around.
[The camera image shakes for a moment but when it finally stops it shows Iskandar sitting on a low ladder the type you usually find in libraries. There is a glimpse of Satya covering her face with both hands. The gesture is not unknown to any technically savvy person who ever tried to explain technology to an earnest relative with said relative having no idea how it works but insisting they know what they're doing - He's Lord of Asia! King of Conquerors! He knows what he's doing! - and failing miserably at it. But he's learning! Give him an hour! If he only had the patience to actually use that hour to learn before trying to use it. Hint: he doesn't.]
Greetings! For those few who don't know me yet I am Iskandar. It has come to my attention that the modern times have great selection of literature.
[You people have no idea how infinitesimally blessed you are! You should be forever grateful to the gods! That's roughly what his expressions says right now.]
Yet it is unfortunate that some of it is, mildly speaking, left wanting. That is why I am addressing all that would heed my call. What books would you recommend? For I greatly desire to read something worthy of my time.
Furthermore, if someone felt in mood of discussing great works of literature with me or even better a group I'm more than happy to organise the, how they call it? Ah, a book club! Should anyone be interested they may contact me here or leave a message at my temple.
[That's where recording ends.]
