002 | Tokyo In Trouble
Who: Everyone!
What: Surprise! There's a disaster on the Near Shore.
When: Late at night (February 24, 2016) into mid-afternoon (February 25, 2016)
Where: The Meeting Hall of the Heavens AND various places around Tokyo
Summary: A nice little greeting for the new guests and an unpleasant surprise for the older ones~
A sudden, loud blast of noise persists throughout the entirety of the Heavens. It sounds much like a war horn of ancient times being played at a decibel that is meant to shake the very core of every being within its range. No matter how much you might try to block out the noise, it remains ringing in your ears deafeningly, and somehow you find yourself compelled towards the Meeting Hall - the place where you were first introduced to the Heavens and what you have gotten wrapped up in.
Anyone checking their phones will notice a large, bright red alert flashing at them - 'EMERGENCY! REPORT IMMEDIATELY!' It seems that the Heavens have taken to using modern technology for their messages as well.
Once you have reached the Meeting Hall, you will find that every wall has turned into a sort of television screen, displaying various streets and buildings in Tokyo, everyone one literally crawling with ayakashi both big and small. A voice that you recognize as Amaterasu's - though you would never be able to describe it properly - rings throughout the halls.
"We need your help, brave gods, loyal shinki. A rift the likes of which we have never dealt with has opened on the Near Shore. We must end the ayakashi who are harming our dear followers. Please come to our aid in this time of need."
Meeting Hall
The once garishly decorated Meeting Hall looks very much like the base of operations for an army at war. There are gods gearing up with shinki and man-made gear as well and plenty of gods and shinki saying prayers before they head out to battle. Everything you might need to make yourself feel safe during a fight has been provided, including every type of weaponry. But, of course, only shinki wielded by a god can actually destroy an ayakashi.
Counselling
In the main hallway, there is an innocuous door with a small, nicely written sign that reads "Gentle Counselling". Inside the door is a small room with a few sweetly smiling shinki inside who are willing to listen to your problems and answer any questions you might have. They are also here to help out any gods that are having a hard time dealing with knowing about how their shinki died and any shinki that is having trouble coming to terms with the fact that they are dead.
February 24
The rift that has opened is so vast that there is literally nowhere in Tokyo that you can go without encountering a rampaging group of ayakashi. Everything is utter chaos and there are creatures everywhere for you to fight. Let's just hope that you can get out of this dangerous battlefront mostly unscathed.
February 25
Towards the middle of the day, it will seem that the ayakashi are becoming fewer and further between. Things seem to be calming down a lot, though they are nowhere near normal yet, especially since the rift is taking longer to close than the Heavens would like. Fortunately, no new ayakashi have escaped into the Near Shore from the rift since this morning, due to a barrier that has been placed around it. Still, the ayakashi seem to be really hell-bent on getting away from you all now rather than fighting...

In Summary:
- There are a ton of ayakashi on the Near Shore that need to be destroyed.
- The newbies are getting one hell of a welcome as a result.
- Seek counselling if you need it!
- Go kick some evil ass.
- Comment to the first thread to get a randomly generated number of ayakashi to face.
- Mods will gladly play out any ayakashi interactions where requested.
- Try not to get killed~

Are you a saniwa?
no subject
[He glances curiously at Yamato. The guy's a shinki; Tsuzuki can't ask him where he ran across saniwa, but the question makes him wonder if Yamato's a lot older than he seems. Most modern people think comic books and shrines first.]
So I guess this kind of stuff's familiar to you, huh? Do you know how to use magic?
no subject
He considers the question, then shakes his head.]
I'm not sure, but I don't think so. I don't think I could do this. [Writing slips like these, or anything else Tsuzuki mentioned, really.] But it doesn't seem so strange, like the other things here...
no subject
[Yamato's outfit is traditional enough that Tsuzuki isn't surprised to hear a lot of things seem strange to him. Maybe his life was longer ago.
Funny, how the idea of exorcism seemed to send a shiver through Yamato -- unless it was just the wind catching his sleeves?]
Anyway, it might work against ayakashi! Can you read them?
[Most of the writing is just Chinese, with some older script. If he'd been a scholar, or a shrine attendant, it'd probably be familiar; Tsuzuki casts him a curious glance. That reaction to the thought of exorcism says shrine attendant to him.]
no subject
Some of it, not everything. [Most of it, actually, or at least enough to get the general idea. He glances over the slips of paper, pointing at various words he recognizes.] "God", "protection", "life", "evil", "erase"-- or "exterminate"? [A little frown. He's familiar enough with the language, but not to the extent that some of the temple swords might've been. Still, it's not a bad guess.]
What do you do with them? Do you just stick them on the ayakashi?
no subject
[Shinki have some powers of their own. Ofuda magic might work with that; Tsuzuki's kind of curious about it. He should see if Hisoka remembers his ofuda magic, too, for that matter -- skills seem to stick around even though the shinki have lost the memories of their lives....
He points at one of the ofuda that Yamato had been reading.] Some of them, I stick right on the ayakashi. See this here? This will stop one of them from moving for a little while. Others -- like this one over here -- are for making wards that they can't cross, and this one is for summoning a creature that will help me fight.
no subject
Wards... that sounds like the borderline Yukine-kun taught me. [He's not as good at making them as Yukine is yet, of course, though he's been practicing hard every day since he was first shown how to do them. Being able to make wards like this would help immensely, if he couldn't make a borderline himself in a dire moment.]
I would like to learn, if it's okay with Commander-kun. [He wouldn't dream of doing something like this without her permission, after all.]
no subject
[Commander-kun? Man, that's cute. Tsuzuki stifles a grin.
Yamato is weird, but he seems like he's got a good heart under all the weirdness. He's just... weird. Who knows, considering Shepard's from some far future time; maybe Yamato's from the past.]
Let me know if she says it's okay!
no subject
[Shepard isn't too happy about this "god" thing, she'd made that clear from the beginning. It makes Yamato a little bit sad, but she's done nothing to imply she wants to be rid of him, so he tries not to worry about it too much.]
I will! Thank you-- oh, I don't know your name. [They were too busy eating the first time, oops.]
no subject
[Here, have a bow! Since he's actually remembering to introduce himself this time.]
