Prayer #34 Write-in for Tanabata:
Forseti temple in Heligoland got wreaked by a small gang of teenagers. It's completely trashed much to the dismay of the fisherman that visits often. After having his fish saved he doesn't want the island to lose Forseti's blessing. It's too much work for one old man to handle. His granddaughter, that has come all the way from Japan to visit, suggests making a tanabata wish and to hang it up in the temple. So, with his granddaughter's help, he wishes for the temple to be cleaned up back to it's respectable state.
Prayer #36 Follow-up to 34:
The ayakashi that is causing all of the ruckus around Heligoland looks like a ram with one broken horn, and runs around with several groups of teenagers encouraging them to wreck any sort of building with a bit of prestige to it, which included Forseti's temple. They will need to track the ayakashi down by the trail of damage it's leaving in its wake.
Prayer #35:
Forseti is also the god that "stills all strife" in people's bonds! Unbeknownst to Aymeric, the temple-trashing teens actually started their messy activities because of a misunderstanding between one of the boys and a friend who didn't participate. That friend saw the fisherman's Tanabata wish and asked about it, wishing on the same paper that Forseti might repair the misunderstanding. The prayer was thus literally buried by the trashing of the temple. Time to set things right!
Prayer #37 Follow-up to 35:
With the advice given a success, the teenagers and the wishmaker seem to be at peace with each other! However, there's still something lurking around. Turns out it's a slippery naga ayakashi; time to track it downAND HIT IT WITH A FRIENDSHIP BEAMand ensure no more misunderstandings happen this time around!
Prayer #38 Follow-up to 36 and 37:
Our favorite fisherman, Frisch Singer, has gone out for his normal work and then a storm kicked up all of a sudden! Unbeknownst to the trio in Heligoland, it is a Draugen - the ghost of a man that died at sea - style ayakashi. The granddaugter makes a second wish, that her grandfather will come home safely! Little does she realize it will take the trio fighting a monster to bring him home.
Full Party
After meeting the summoned gods she outlined her intended plan simply. Aymeric would use Goten to fight off the ayakashi attracted by the circle. Kayonaga would physically destroy the circle using borderlines and support Aymeric as needed. She would draw up water from the ground to flood the area, and Roxas would use Kairi to purify the water. Should that location be favorable to such dark arts, she is hopeful that this purification would dissuade the culprit from working there again.
After making sure that all were agreed with this plan, she invited the two shinki and their gods to lead the way there. Because Kairi had taken a picture of the area, it was a simple matter for the gods to teleport the group there.
---
Appearing in the air above and some distance from the circle, it is a good vantage point. After taking a moment to survey the area from there Suijin allows herself to start dropping towards the ground at the edge of the dead vegetation.]
Let us go to work, then.
[Of course, the arrival of so many delicious-seeming souls does not go unnoticed by the ayakashi. On the alert from the previous disturbance of the two shinki, they are quick to rise against them. As soon as Sujin’s feet touch the ground Kayonaga lets go of her shoulders and starts drawing borderlines. The first cuts clear across the circle, breaking any remaining spell. The second is a wall for the fastest ayakashi to run into. He glances over at Aymeric and nods. Their allies will of course be able to pass through it without any trouble.
Suijin meanwhile walks to the center of the broken circle and drives her pole into the ground with a force perhaps unexpected of one dressed so delicately.]
Draw it forth and spread it as far as you can reach, Saki.
[After only a moment water springs up from around the pole. Suijin does not pay the least attention to her now sodden feet and kimono, concentration fully on the water. It will take some time to inundate the whole area...]

/jumps in here first
Lady Suijin was hoping that we could get the water purified after we take care of some of these ayakashi, Roxas.
[That being their task and priority, if Roxas was okay with it - Rend first, purify second.]
It's days like this I wish I could do it on my own, but at least the two of us working together should make this go super smooth, right?
[She puts her hand on Goten's shoulder too, to be reassuring.]
/second
Yeah! It'll be fine! You can count on Aymeric and me! We'll make sure no Ayakashi's get too close, right?
[He reaches up a little, grabbing Aymeric's hand to tug on it a little. He's excited, clearly. Teaming up with a bunch of people. This has too work! Goten has no doubts.]
Let's do our best.
/third after pulling her head out of Stormblood
[It's not like he hasn't been through worse but then again, dragons are not the type to make others poisoned by mere touch. Unless you're Nidhogg. Seriously, fuck that guy.]
Let us not dally any longer; come Chinki!
no subject
Kayonaga is being Suijin's eyes, carefully keeping a lookout in all directions for anything that would disturb his god's work.]
no subject
Unfortunately, now she can't speak, but she and Roxas clear a spot near the water. Then, they have enough space for Roxas to drop down on one knee and dip Kairi's hand in the swamp water. Knowing what she's doing this for, it doesn't bother her, the slightly weird smell and texture by comparison to the ocean.
Ebbing out from where her glove is touching the water, a sweeter smell and clearer color starts to spread. Surely it will bother the ayakashi, even though it won't outright destroy all of them. Anything to distract them.]
no subject
Familiar light pillars pop in and out, some may remember it as Circle of Scorn followed by another light based attack, Flash. Well that's certainly enough to get their attention off the others, right?]
no subject
Just that series of attacks from Aymeric seems to be enough to provoke the ayakashi in their direction, leaving Kairi and Suijin free to move for the moment. Flashy moving targets seem appealing to them.]
no subject
Aymeric's lure is quite effective, especially when it comes to the ayakashi's choice between fighting a ready target, or wading through blessed water.
It is impossible to count them as they dart to-and-fro to begin their attacks on Aymeric, but there seem to be a good twenty or so otter-like ayakashi swarming towards them. In the rear a large ayakashi with elk-like antlers is lumbering nearer, unheeding of the ayakashi it may crush beneath its feet. The ayakashi making up the dam are stirring, but making no movement yet. That may change once the blessed water spreads far enough.
Wary of the large one, Kayonaga sends a borderline to stop it from advancing, so that the otters can be dealt with first. He then sends cutting borderlines into the crowd of ayakashi, wounding the otter-like ones with arrow-like accuracy that prevents them from swarming Aymeric all at once.
The rest is up to the god and his shinki.]
no subject
Gripping his two keyblades in his hands, braced by Kairi's gloves, Roxas tears into one of the ayakashi with a Rend from Kairi following it up - although it takes a flat-palmed smack between the eyes to do it. That gets the attention of the other two, as one reaches out with froggy digits to try and get Roxas by the face. His keyblades disappear and his hands go up with Kairi's hands to brace, allowing her shinki power to protect him from getting blighted.
With a quick teleport out of the way, Roxas can get behind that one to Rend it with more of a chopping action that time. Still requires Kairi's glove to come in contact with the ayakashi. Reeling on the last one as it tries to get Roxas from behind, both of his hands come up to clap that one around the head like two cymbals in one of those cartoons. That's three more gone and he can dunk both of Kairi's gloves back in the water to get some more purification going.]
no subject
Running forward, he and Goten slash through a few more small ayakashi but have to wonder if destroying the elk one would cause the smaller ones to disperse.]
no subject
no subject
Seeing Aymeric making a move forward towards the elk-like ayakashi, he lets the god through his barrier and the otter-like ones that were focused on him are left behind, scratching frantically at the borderline. Whatever the god did to attract their attention was quite effective on them, and so long as there was his borderline between them and Aymeric, Kayonaga would let it stand like that.
Suijin looks up from the water for a moment to take in the situation. Seeing how things stand she calls out quickly,]
Once Aymeric has defeated the large ayakashi I shall disrupt the dam. Be ready! Roxas, move between the dam and I so that Kairi can purify all the water I send that direction.
no subject
Thankfully Roxas is very adept at navigating his way around a chaotic skirmish like the one Aymeric and Goten have gotten themselves into.]
'I'm ready!'
[She makes that promise where only her god can hear, but in her mind it's a promise to Suijin as well. Out of instinct, she stretches out her hands to match what Roxas is doing. His keyblade disappears and then it's just her gloves ready to connect with the rest of the water.]
no subject
...what? Shield Lob wouldn't really work without something to throw and since Aymeric doesn't carry a shield, he has to improvise. And it bonks the ayakashi upside the head and more than likely annoyed it besides it being a god in the area who happens to be killing a lot of them around. He's not even sorry. The lord commander begins his usual assault on the ayakashi and it can feel itself get a bit weaker strength wise when multiple slashes go through; Aymeric just calls it Rage of Halone and it'll only sap its strength for about 20 seconds. But he doesn't stop, continuing on with his attacks. But even so, he can't help but speak to Goten even while the boy is in vessel form.]
Are you feeling alright there?
[Yes they need to defeat the thing but it would be a bit hard if one of them was off balance. Saying a quick Rend spell, he is not sure if the beast is weakened enough to take the hit or not. But at least he can keep the focus on him and not the rest.]
no subject
[Faltering. Or whatever word Aymeric said earlier. But hopefully it gets the point across.
Goten is excited even with everything going on and Aymeric can probably feel that bubbling energy through their bond. It may be a serious mission and they have a job to do but Goten practically lives for this stuff. Being teamed up with Aymeric is the best and he's not about to slow down if his favorite god is. Teaming up with Aymeric and Kairi, there's no stopping them! Or that's what he believes. Suijin is amazing too!
The energy making up the translucent blade continues to shine bright as it tears anything Aymeric slashes through. It radiates bright blue, leaving fate trails after each swing. He does his best to keep his focus with Aymeric, trying to keep with him and not let his attention waver as they attack the large elk. With the the Rend Spell, it not difficult to slice through the ayakashi's front.]
no subject
Ayakashi are powerful when they have the upper hand, but many small ones are cowards.
And sure enough, when the pure water crashes against the dam it shudders and begins to dissolve into a myrrad of small mantis-like ayakashi swarming about. But although they are in disarray, they still have the instinct to attack the delicious-smelling beings so near them.
Whether they attempt to flee or come to attack, Suijin has no intention of letting any ayakashi escape. Leaving the rod that is Saki in the ground, Suijin holds out her hand towards Kayonaga.]
Come, Tsuki!
[The kanji 通 flashes from him and her shinki flies to her hand, an elegant but deadly ko-naginata. Unhindered by the water that is more than ankle-deep in places, nor her sodden kimono, Suijin moves swiftly to engage the mantis-like dam ayakashi. Wherever the long blade of her polearm sweeps, akakashi are destroyed.
She calls out one last command:]
Finish them all!
I lied. 13/20 character comments orz
So even though they're in the middle of a battle, Kairi herself is kind of zen-ed out, to keep her energy up and not stress. They're going to do what Suijin asked and purify this place. They're going to get rid of the ayakashi in the area. It will happen, with her at Roxas's side throughout.
However, that also means she's close to her limit and Roxas can feel it. She's done a lot with him but it was always fighting the ayakashi, not her purification. After a brief private conversation with him, he decides she needs a break regardless of her own opinion on the matter.]
Kairi, revert!
[Ah!]
-- Wait!
[But Kairi's off on the side of the lake now, while Roxas returns to Aymeric's side as another distraction for some of the ayakashi while Aymeric can Rend and Roxas can't.
Kairi tries to stand but stays on her knees, exhaling sharply with the effort.]
14/20
At least these ayakashi are small enough for a decent Rend spell and he has Goten to thank as well. That child deserves a cake for this. Or something that won't causs a sugar crash.]
