Re: Rice Run

"I don't know that we need shibari here, but a secure binding, to hold this creature from escaping or doing more mischief when it wakes.  And once again, my thanks for your assistance.

"I think we can obtain salt water in the bath house or from the shaman, once they have finished their summoning."


Chou-Zhen lets his lightning whip lapse, and helps hold the filthy creature while Miko ties it.

Re: Rice Run

If Ales is no longer needed with the ritual, Ales proceeds to see the village elder to ask for the supplies he needs to make his "gift" for the robber barons.

(Ooc: sanctified rice and/or salt, vessels for containing filth eater)

In reply to Ales Konstantin (msg # 514):

The elder contemplates the request.
"You wish to pickle the filth eater and give it to these gaijin bastards? Hah!" He laughs heartily.

"In the supply hut are some earthenware vessels used for brewing pickled cabbage. One of those onggi should fit our friend, and there is a large cauldron we use for making stew on the harvest festival. Both have lids, but you may want to seal them with clay. I suppose the shaman mightnhave sanctified rice, but the river water can be salted as well...."
He looks with horror at a damp spot on the wall that is starting to spread...

Re: Rice Run

Ales thanks the village elder. He was about to ask him about where he could get some clay for sealing up the vessels when he, too, noticed the growing damp spot on the wall.

In his best Sahudese, he asks if the spirit of Kodokuna Otome-san is with them. "If you are the Weeping Maiden, we have some news on your love."

The damp spot grows, until a puddle forms on the floor. A trail of damp footprints approach.

The elder seems concerned.

Ales motions for the elder to get behind him.

Ales begins to chant, a prayer to his goddess of wisdom for knowledge.

Ales briefly turns to the elder. "Why did you send her lover away? What good would come from separating the couple?"

Re: Rice Run

Ales turned back to the Maiden. "Your lover has been summoned by the shaman and the apprentice. We learned that he was burned by a dragon with many legs, though our party does not understand what he means. If you wish, we can go and ask if the elder's story is true. If he lies, I will help you bring him to justice."

Re: Rice Run

"Hold on Maiden. I give you an opportunity to reunite with your lover, even after death, and you choose revenge. By doing so, you fail to honor the love between you once had."

Seeing the chief beginning to choke on the water, Ales rapidly begins swinging his sword, and as does so, it begins to flame out. Then, he swings his sword and cuts the Maiden.

Ales sighs. " I wished not to have had struck you, Maiden, but you left me no choice."

He raises his scimitar up and slices the yorei once more.
