[A: New Beginning, Take Two (Closed to Mirei)]

[Maria had heard about gods disappearing enough in her first month, but she hadn't been expecting it to be quite so abrupt. Ayumu had seemed to be a well-established god...so all this really does is tell her it can happen to anyone at any time.

She's been at the Shinki Sanctuary for the few days since it happened, but now, with the training gathering coming around again, she heads to the Meeting Hall to see if she's been reassigned yet. The pointed curls of her pink hair are quite well visible over the crowd as she looks over the people gathered, a slight frown on her face.]


I guess I don't have a choice but to wait, do I...?

[B: Shinki Training]

[Once things are sorted out with her new god, Maria goes back to what she hadn't gotten the chance to practice fully last time she was here - borderlines. The incident with the volcano had given a good kick to the training she'd already started by then, and as such, her strikes at the straw targets with offensive borderlines are already quite sharp and accurate.

After laying a few more shots into one, Maria sighs and glances back towards the enclosure with the animated dummies.]
Maybe I need to practice defending a little more.

[C: Physical Training]

[Of course, Maria can't just leave it at that when she hears there's cleanup efforts going on in the Western District. While she doesn't have the magic to shift something like a tree by herself, she can take care of some other difficult obstacles so everyone else has an easier time of it.

So she can be found dragging large chunks of rubble out of walkways and paths, muscles quite visible under her short sleeves as she hauls lumps of stone, concrete or whatever else off to one side.]


I think it's just about clear here, you should be able to get through. [Maria says that with a wave to anyone trying to clear out ash or trees or whatever else this way.]

[D: Rest and Refreshments]

[Maria hasn't had a great deal of time to think on the strangeness that had confronted her on her arrival last month, particularly the revelation that she used to be a god, but she has had enough to look into some things. Particularly, the reason why she might have ended up in a position to be running a talent agency.

As such, once the two older shinki have had their turn at the microphone, she steps up to the stage somewhat cautiously, picking an older song well-known enough for her to be familiar with it. It's upbeat, but not quite poppy, and Maria's voice as she sings along is confident and clear, that of a well-trained singer and most likely an experienced performer to boot.

Once she comes to the end of the song, she'll offer the microphone to anyone nearby, a small smile on her face.]
Did you want a turn?
