What: A volcano eruption threatens the Western District
When: Jan 14 - 16
Where: The Western District of the Heavens
Summary: The Western District volcano is erupting again, endangering nearby temples and sending ash sprinkling down across the Heavens. Is it natural, or another attack? Those who dare climb the volcano can find out.


Earthquake Warning
- On the morning of the 14th, an earthquake rattles windows throughout the Heavens. It's not strong enough to knock down buildings -- unless they're about to fall down anyway, like some of the older abandoned temples -- but it's strong enough to knock things off shelves and startle any late sleepers out of bed.
After the earthquake, strange sights abound around the Heavens. The poetic koi are swimming in organized schools in all of the canals, heading upstream towards the east. Springs of pure water burst out in some areas, and in others, normal springs or fountains have gone temporarily dry. Blue and green lights bob and weave across the landscape.
Falling Rock
- The volcano begins erupting with a roar and a bright scarlet glow on the horizon. Ash and bits of rock fall across the Western district, and may even reach into the Southwest, Northwest and southern Central districts. Volcanic glass fibers that look like golden hair collect on trees, fences and buildings.
Trails and fountains of lava are also erupting from freshly opened fissures and wending down the sides of the volcano. Gods and shinki who live in the Western District are going to need some help clearing ash and glass from their roofs, trying to re-route lava flows (the good news is, if you cool one side down enough, you can turn them! the bad news is, that takes a lot of work) or just offering them a spare room to stay until things calm down.
Swamp Gas
- It's not just lava and springwater erupting from mysterious new crevasses -- and it's not just mundane volcanic gases, either. Divine volcanic vents are blowing mind-altering fumes all over the Heavens. Anywhere across the Far Shore, but especially as characters get closer to the volcano, they may experience one or more of the following effects:
- Confusion
- Intense emotions
- Anger and irritability
- Impulsive behavior, loss of emotional control
- Hallucinations
- Unusually clear insight into other people and situations
- Coughing, eye and throat irritation, difficulty breathing
- Irresistible impulses to speak in poetry
Most symptoms will clear up after a few hours in fresh air, and all of them will be gone within 48 hours of the last volcano gas exposure.
Mountain Climbing
- Natural disasters don't just happen like this in the Heavens... do they? Amaterasu's white-robed shinki are convinced that something is wrong, and they're organizing into search parties to go up the mountain and seek out the cause of this eruption. New and old gods and shinki are welcome to join them, or form their own groups. All of the hazards -- tremors, lava, ash, and volcanic gas -- will get worse as characters ascend the volcano. Strange little spirit flames, in shades of red and blue, dance on the rocks, dazzling, confusing and threatening to singe interlopers.
And there's someone up here, too. A mysterious figure with glowing red eyes is keeping watch on the intruders and vanishing behind boulders whenever someone turns his way. He won't let anyone traveling with one of the white-robed shinki get too close, but solitary gods or shinki might manage to lure him into conversation, if they try....
OOC: Please comment to the 'NPC REQUEST' thread below in order to talk to the mysterious figure on the volcano.
Those climbing the volcano will have a chance to battle the mysterious figure should their characters choose to do so. If you're interested in a fight, please comment to the 'NPC FIGHT' thread below before the top-level is posted. A top-level for the fight will go up on IC Jan 16/OOC Sept 4.

In Summary:
- Don't get rattled
- Help out the Western District with their volcano problem
- Watch out for volcanic gases
- Find out who's behind the eruption
- Have fun~

[A borderline springs up between Judar and the empty space he was firing at. Suzaku can't see anything chasing him but people don't attack nothing and it might be that an ayakashi is close behind this boy.]
That should hold them off for a little while, are you alright? [He rushed to his side, glancing back at the borderline, nothing has shown up to try and get through it yet...]
no subject
[ He paused, watching where the line was cast- A couple of seconds later, spears of ice shot through the air towards that empty space. To him it dropped the massive creature. The creature that wasn't actually there.
The spears went through and hit the line and ground, spreading ice further a few feet outside the striking point. ]
Those freaky things don't even stop with lines. The fuck is going on?
no subject
What is chasing you?
no subject
[ But it's gone, without any signs of the ice having struck against anything. Even the ice that shattered off the line had dissipated. ]
It was some huge creature. How do you miss it?
no subject
no subject
[ He sounded so sure- With how much Judar actually ran, and the labored breath he was dealing with, the monster had to be around. How does someone miss that? ]
You've got to be fucking with me. What, are you near sighted or something? You can't tell the difference from a monster and a weird sculpture in the distance?
no subject
But he doesn't want to call the boy a liar.]
Come on. Whatever it is we best put distance between us and it.
no subject
It better not come back after all that...
[ Yet he also doesn't want to stick around. So despite it being Suzaku's idea, he doesn't actively agree with the suggestion. Instead he's going to back away from where he'd seen the creature, turn and start walking away. ]
no subject
There are people not too far away, we should head towards them. [He gestures in the direction that he last saw any groups of people.]
no subject
[ What, him being paranoid or irritated at people overall? No. Never. ]
no subject
[He looks over as well with a frown, had someone attacked him? Or just failed to save him from the beast that only he could see?]
no subject
[ What a great way to view the people around you, right? ]
no subject
[This boy dismissed everyone too easily, most of those Suzaku had met were reliable and competent.]
no subject
[ He's, uh, been in this area for a good while now. Sorry Suzaku. ]
