[As usual with Ebisu, this video takes place within his office where he's cheerfully looking into the camera. Is a dandy little vest and button up on today again? Oh, absolutely.]

Greetings, everyone. I'm sure that you are all quite busy, with events transpiring as they have, but I am here today to draw your attention to a festival which is occurring all month. I understand that many of you are gods foreign to Japan and recent cultural trends, so I hope this proves to be informative.

In the city of Nara- Naramachi to be exact- there is an art festival that will be ongoing throughout all of June. It's really a rather unique event! You see, that part of town has the nickname of Nyaramachi, because it's rather famous for its local cat population. So the art festival which takes place this month is very cat oriented! Hopefully it can help ease some of the stress that we've all been under. I've been told there are a variety of events to attend, and various items that can be bought, such as pottery or toys.

Although... If there are some people who perhaps have the time for it, it does seem as though there is a little trouble, as there usually is with large Near Shore events such as this. If anyone has the time to check in on a few things... Well, it would be appreciated. For all that this is a very fun event, well, it is ultimately for the sake of the feline residents' health and happiness, you see. I'm sure it's not only the humans which would appreciate any helping hands.

I have to wonder why during most crucial times that people somehow find themselves indisposed. But it does not appear that the Heavens have had much in the way of flames coming forth on this day...that I know of.

Has aught happened since I had fallen asleep?

[ Nanako appears on the video screen this morning (because video is still easier than typing out longer messages) looking a little confused. And... maybe a little different? Is her hair longer? Has something else changed? It's hard to tell. But she's frowning very seriously as she records the video and looks to be trying to figure something out herself. ]

I... I'm back? I'm back in my temple again. Hello? Was I gone a long time? Are people still here? Sora's not here anymore - I can't feel him at all - but Chikusa? Ken? Is everyone else still here? How long was I gone for? I don't know what happened. I was home again and... now I'm back.

[ For a moment, she looks like she's about to cry over that, so she quickly closes the video again. ]

welcome_home

[ When Nanako appears on the BBS this morning, she's looking a little worse for wear, a little pale but with a feverish flush to her cheeks and a red nose. She looks pretty miserable. Currently, she's seated at her kotatsu, head laying on her arm, and the little girl should probably be in bed right now, but... ]

Gods can get sick? I guess we can. That doesn't seem fair. I still have so much to do...

[ She might be pouting about this a little, which she normally doesn't do, but she also doesn't feel very good right now. ]

If people aren't too busy, could someone take some more cold medicine to the Near Shore? A lot of people are getting sick and colds there. I've been taking medicine and soup to help but I don't think I can today...

[ And since that seems to be about as much talking as she can handle before coughing again, she switches off the video for now. ]

{{ OOC Note: Feel free to hit Nanako up here over the BBS although she might be replying in text for a bit, but she also has a log up here if close CR want to swing by and check on her. Feel free to hit me up at

chaneystarr with questions or plotting. }}

Private text to Chikusa and Ken
Maybe it's better if you two stay away at Hakkai's for a few days so you don't get sick, too. Do you think I could send Suou over there just in case?

[ Even if she's not sure she could convince her other shinki to go, but she doesn't want to make someone else sick, either! ]

URGENT: APPEAL FOR INFORMATION

Princess Yona, known on the Far Shore as the Goddess Áine, has been missing since the early afternoon of November 12th. She was last seen in her temple grounds late this morning: her movements since then are unclear. All attempts to get in touch with her have so far been unsuccessful. The Princess's absence is highly uncharacteristic and incredibly concerning to everyone who knows her, and our fear is that she has met with misadventure or foul play.

The Princess is sixteen years old. She is of average height, slender build, and noble bearing. She has curly, shoulder-length, russet hair and bright, piercing purple eyes, and was dressed when last seen in a red tunic top and long pink skirt, with distinctive long golden earrings. She may be wearing a light green cloak with a hood, and carrying a bow and arrows.

If you have any knowledge of her whereabouts, or any indication of where she may have been headed or who she may have been with, please get in contact at the earliest opportunity.

[This is how one writes such a missive, is it not?

[The last thing Kija would want is to have left out something important.]

[The video opens on...someone who is definitely not Chinatsu, sitting on a stark white couch in front of smooth earthen walls. It's a woman in her early to mid 20s, wearing a yukata in a careless enough manner that it's listing badly to one shoulder, with her hair done in a circular curl on one side of her head, finished with a shining, formal pin despite the abundance of hairs that have come loose of the hairdo. The arm holding the phone has a network of very faint knife scars down it, only visible because of her sleeves being tied up right now so as not to get in the way.

Though she's clearly not feeling it, she manages to force a smile and wave to open the conversation.]

Hello everyone. I'm not Chinatsu-kun, which you must already know if you know her, but I'd like to thank her for lending me her phone. This is...something I think I should say myself.

[Her attempt at a smile collapses quickly into something more strained and worried, though she manages to salvage it to collect herself into a more serious, but still grave manner.]

I haven't met most of you, but my name is Kotori, and I'm one of the shinki to Kurosaki Shun, otherwise known as Nekhbet. [She bites her lip a bit, keeps going.] I know there's some of you I should've told this to personally, and I'm sorry to them, but...he's missing. Not gone like what happens to you newcomers sometimes, just--

[Letting out a breath, she tracks back to an explanation.] He took me on an early morning patrol on the 11th. Maybe two or three AM, it's not uncommon for him to run out at that hour...but one of the places he wanted to check was that forest that moves around the Heavens. I think some of you might know what I'm talking about already. It's been...worse, in the last few days. Like it's reaching out to us. It had already been getting worse, but this...

[She grits her teeth, running a hand through her hair.] Don't let anyone else near it alone. I don't know what happened that day, I couldn't see it when I was a vessel, and all I could hear was the trees. And then I was changed back and he ordered me to run, and he never gives orders unless it's-- [Another break off, like she's angry with herself for having to pause so much, before she takes a deep breath.] I was lucky to find the edge of the forest, but he wasn't with me. That forest took him, and I don't think Kurosaki-sama is the only one. I don't think it's going to end by itself. I could feel it on my heels when I ran, and I can still feel it now...like it's trying to lure us and keep us there. Have any of you felt it too? Or seen others taken by it?

It needs to be stopped. And I don't know how to do it...but I can try and help you all a little if you're going to try. I owe that much.

[[This is the pre-event announcement/lead-in for the Hungry Forest event that begins on IC November 14th. Characters may ask questions of Kotori or discuss disappearances between themselves (or just make certain disappearances public knowledge), or try to plan things out for the next day - whatever helps!]]

Dunno if anyone is interested but Ciel is gone. Um, Asteria if you knew him that way.

[Which sucks because Lann actually liked his god and they were getting along. Mostly.]

Soo... anyone got somewhere I can crash for a couple of days?

[Oh. Wait.]

Uh, somewhere pet friendly?

From: Nanshe
Date: October 5th

[ She'd known something was wrong the moment she'd woken up this morning, that empty feeling that told her she was missing a connection. Homura. Heart clenching, she'd launched herself out of her own temple, where she'd slept over after her party the day before, and headed for Souji's. There's momentary confusion, because her temple seems to have moved somehow in the course of the night, but she knows the layout of the heavens well enough from the sky to figure out where she is after a moment.

Only the place where Souji's temple should be was now just an empty plot and no matter how she searched, she couldn't find a place where it could have moved to. She's been here long enough now that she knows what this means, even if it takes her a while to admit it to herself and give up looking.

Which is why it's some time before she shows up on the network, her eyes very red from having been crying for a while. ]

S-souji-oniichan's temple isn't here anymore and I can't... I can't feel Homura. I don't think either one of them are here anymore. I thought... I thought you should know.

[ And she closes down the video feed before she bursts into tears once more. It might be a while before she responds to anyone. ]

welcome_home

[ Early on the morning of October 3rd, invitations are sneakily left at the various temples of friends and almost-family, hand-drawn with crayons (probably pretty obvious by a six-year-old) of a birthday cake with seven candles on it.

Inside the invitation reads, in colorful childish scrawl: ]

It's my birthday on October 4th!
I'm going to be seven!
I want to have cake with all my friends.
If you want some, come to my temple at 2pm.
<3 Nanako

[ Included is a small map that shows the location of Nanako's temple. ]

[ Nanako's sprawled on her stomach on her bed when the video starts, feet kicking behind her in the air absently, a look of concentration on her face. ]

Is there a difference between wishes and prayers? If a god makes a wish here... does someone hear it somewhere and make it happen?

From: Goten
Date: September 24

[Surprisingly, Goten’s name pops on the network, and at first, the video shows nothing but voices can be heard: Goten’s and a deeper voice that may sound familiar to some.

It’s not long before Goten notices the device and his face pops up, looking excited.]

Hey! Everybody! I found him! He’s still here! I found him, I found him! Look!

[The device bops with Goten’s bouncing as he moves it to show a familiar blond, practically shoving the camera into Izumo’s face.

Izumo looks at the camera, lifting a hand in a sort of wave.]

It seems I’ve caused a bit of a ruckus when I left, if what Goten told me is right. [A glance at Goten before he looks back at the camera, giving a smile.]

Sorry for that.

[Goten’s hair is practically the only thing viewable of him as he holds the camera more on Izumo like he’s going to disappear otherwise.]

You should invite everyone to your new place and make something yummy. I betcha they’d like that.

[Izumo chuckles, ruffling his hair.]

Right. Anyway, [He looks back at the camera.] for now, you can find me at my bar, Double Cross. I doubt I’ll end up disappearing anytime soon with Goten clinging onto me.

[Actually, there’s a bit of a pause and he has to look at Goten.]

My bar is still in one piece, right?

Uhhhm…..I dunno, I think Shizuo was pretty upset you were gone to…

[That doesn’t make it assuring.

Izumo sighs out and gives a nod to the camera.]

In any case, if anyone of you want to find me, I’ll be there. [And with that, the video ends.]

[Hello, Far Shore!

Here's your resident redhaired librarian who greets everyone with a slight smile and a wave.]

Hey, everyone. I've noticed there's been quite a few people here who are either illiterate or mute [Selectively mute, anyway] so I've decided to find a way where it might be easier to communicate.

I'll be teaching sign language for anyone who's interested and I'm also offering to help anyone who would like to learn how to read. So far, these will be initially taught at the library or I can even do private tutoring sessions for anyone as well. If you also know people who are interested, spread the word.

And for those who doesn't know me yet, the name's Lavi.

From: Forseti
Date: September 16, 2016

[Hey, who are these three weirdos showing up on the BBS feed? They may not be familiar to some but to others, the forms of Izumo, Aymeric, and Leo are on screen thanks to the laptop camera in Aymeric's office. No cats included but strange enough the camera is able to fit all three men in view without issue..]

Greetings and well met, Far Shore. To those who are curious of who we are, I am Aymeric de Borel-

Leo, formerly prince of Nohr.

And Izumo Kusanagi.

We come to you with an idea that some may have heard or seen within the past few days, coming together to express it the best way we can. Recall when you first arrived in this realm and were told about your new positions whether god or shinki. However, have you noticed that the information given to us was sparse? Most of what we know now was by either word-of-mouth, spoken by fellow comrades, or we had to experience it.

[Do they need a reminder of Axel and how important the Gods’ Greatest Secret is? While they cannot see it on screen, he keeps his hands folded.]

Not only that but when someone vanishes and there are shinki with no place to go, only to rely on this network and their own connections to find a place to stay and to be safe from harm...there needs to be something done. And we may have that very idea to help: the three of us have come up with the notion of a center of sorts. One to be able to house various information about this world and our roles as well as what can be done.

[Looking to both men as he speaks. He’s not the only one doing this...even if he did kind of drag them into it.

So Leo speaks up.]

There is almost no organization here. We rely on once-monthly training sessions for any information or way to meet the other gods and shinki in the heavens, and sometimes it can be weeks before we realize someone has left the heavens, leaving their shinki godless or their god shinki-less. There is no way to determine how many gods a shinki is named by or how many shinki a god has and what their names are. There is no database of information, no collection of what we know about the world we’re in or the worlds we come from. This is a problem.

[Okay, he’s done.]

It is for this reason that we had decided to fix that problem [A brief pause as he glances at the other two.] and opted to do what we can to help everyone here - god and shinki alike. At the moment, we have managed to procure a location for this at Heaven’s library and we will also offer classes or aid for anyone who finds themselves confused by anything that may seem new to them - such as the technology like the phones that each of us are given when we initially arrive.

Along with the location, we are looking for those able bodied in both physical and mental capabilities to help with the process. There are places that have not yet been mapped and to have a general consensus of the lay of the land would do wonders for those newly arrived. If a shinki has no place to go if they become godless, we need those who are willing to open their doors to give shelter until they can get up on their feet. There needs to be much more information on subjects such as Noraing other than the taboo and whispers in the shadows about how harmful it is. Unless we arm ourselves with knowledge, we will remain ignorant and possibly lose a valuable tool at our disposal.

If there is anyone who is willing to help us, we can be either reached at our current office at the library as mentioned earlier or at this current number to whom we are speaking from along with the temple of Forseti.

[And there’s directions to said library and Aymeric’s temple attached to the message as well. Why only his info? Does anyone want to deal with Niles answering the door? And Izumo seems to be a private person so it’s only fair.]

There has been too much discourse about how to go on in this realm and how only one group should be responsible for the displaced masses. So let us repay in kind and instead of bemusing the misfortunes that are upon us, to stand up and do something for a change. Instead of sitting and watch the world pass by, offer your assistance to someone who needs it. Open your home to one who needs safety in an uncertain time. That is what we are trying to accomplish but we cannot see this to completion alone: we need help, nay we need you.

trapperkeeper

So, uh.... quick question.

[He's trying to seem casual, but Lann is definitely worried.]

Is it a bad sign if your god like, disappears suddenly?

Good evening.

Some of you may already know me but for those who don't, my name is Sakura. It's nice to meet everyone.

Where I'm from, I'm a healer and though I don't have all of my equipment here, I think I can still be of some use. I'm afraid there are some limits to my magic here but my shinki and I can at least help until we can get the assistance you really need. I also have plenty of holy water at my shrine if you need it so please, let me know or come whenever you need to.

I'm also looking for other healers and doctors. Even apothecaries or someone familiar with the medicine of this world would be good to know. I'd like to know my resources so I can help others better. With how things can be here, I'm sure others would appreciate the information too so if you could please respond with any useful information, it would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

- Princess Sakura of Hoshido

( At the end of the post, there are also instructions on how to get to Konohansakuya-hime's shrine. Also feel free to note that her writing style is pretty formal for a network post or who the heck still uses the word apothecary in daily language. )

(A pack of wolves is surely a welcome sight? No? They smile and nip at one another, showing teeth that can easily rend a man apart.)

Robb, do not tease your sister so! (Sansa holds out her hand, walking into frame. The largest wolf breaks free of his free-spirited family and trots up to her. He is rewarded with fresh morsels of meat and a good ear scratch.)

Arya, I have not forgotten you. (Another wolf - this one smaller and darker - edges closer to receive her treat.)

Jon, Bran, Rickon, you too. (Each wolf takes after their namesake in some way: Jon is white, Bran has reddish-brown fur and Rickon is the smallest of the pack, barely out of the puppy stage. Sansa removes her gloves after feeding them and drops a kiss on Robb's head.)

Do not stray far from the temple. I like hearing you sing at night.
