Who: Everyone!
What: Training
When: Morning June 16
Where: Bishamon's temple
Summary: Training sessions for everyone to learn more about their abilities and jobs!



Many people have been wanting to know more about their abilities and what they are required to do here in the Far Shore. So, in conjunction with Bishamonten, the Heavens have seen fit to offer an open training session for everyone to participate in. Here you will be able to learn anything and everything about what you should be able to do and what is expected of you in your new positions.

Bishamon's temple is sweeping and gorgeous, having previously been home to hundreds of shinki. She has graciously offered to hold this training session and will be available to help anyone who needs it.



Equipment

Various kinds of mannequins and dummies have been provided for practice, as well as targets that are either stationary or move, depending on your will. Punching bags, jumping blocks, and a large pool area have also been provided for your use, so that you can find a tool for pretty much anything that you might need to practice. Plenty of practice weapons of various weights, sizes, and shapes are also available upon request from any of the many white-clad shinki that are also attending today.

God Training

Bishamon herself will be the foremost source of information regarding being a god and what is expected of you. It is also encouraged that gods group up together to practice what they've learned and discuss their ideologies. Random groupings can be provided by the mods or you may come up with your own groupings together.

Shinki Training

Various shinki are available to help with shinki training, including Kazuma and all of Bishamon's shinki. Additionally, the white-clad shinki will be more than happy to train you on using the borderline and some of the basics of what is expected of a shinki. It is also encouraged that shinki group up together to practice what they've learned and discuss their ideologies. Random groupings can be provided by the mods or you may come up with your own groupings together.

Refreshments

There is a refreshments table provided. It is covered with light snacks and various kinds of hydrating drinks. There is a little sitting area set up for people to relax in after they have finished their training or if they're even just taking a quick break to cool down. The Heavens want you to stay in good condition!

In Summary:

• Use the state of the art equipment
• Learn about your job
• Form groups to practice
• Don't get dehydrated
• Spectate if you want
• Have fun~

….You really are a skeptic….

[SIGH as if this is the most tiring thing in the world. But fine, if that’s how it is…. Silently, he draws his fingers through the air, and a borderline springs to life between them, glowing steadily. He’s gotten good at it for the relatively short amount of time he’s learned about it.]

...Touch it.

[skepticstarbuck]

[It's not that she can't accept that they exist -- she's seen enough of them be summoned this morning to kill the last of her doubts -- it's just that it still feels like they shouldn't.

That's hard to get over.

She has to admit that closely investigating one might help her, though, so she doesn't argue with the boy. Instead, she reaches out, pressing her palm flat against it. It doesn't feel like a wall; there's a weird humming power to it, something she can feel sizzling uncomfortably under her skin.]

How do you keep it from disappearing?

[kokuyoyo]

Effort, I guess…. I don’t think about it too hard. I just do.

[He wills it into existence with his will, and that seems to be enough for him. The casual exertion of his will feels… natural, somehow. Like something he’s done plenty of times before, although he knows that can’t be true for this.]

It’s like… when you focus your sight, I guess…. After a while, you don’t notice it…

[skepticstarbuck]

Mm.

[Effort. She looks down at her hand, and then back out around the courtyard.]

... Thank you for your help. I'm just going to have to work on it. [She's going to have to practice this a lot. Ideally where no one can laugh at her, but since she has the morning, she may as well practice here, too.]

[kokuyoyo]

It’s easier for everyone else if people know what they can do…

[That is to say- a shinki can only make one line, as far as he can tell. If something happens that requires boxing something in… The more people who know how to do this, the less work Chikusa himself will have to do.]

[It’s ultimately selfish, but he doesn’t really care about that, just idly raising a hand to show he’s heard her as he turns away.]
