Whispers of the past

[Megaera]

The Shrine, Kinkaku-ji, Shikoku

Aya took off her golden mask and placed it besides. She took up the cup of lotus tea Kiku offered her and took a sip. She nodded at her words and set the tea aside.

"The 'Kingiku No Seiyaku Matsuri' almost ended up in a civil war. We should try and prevent such disjointed outcome this year. Especially with an already very delicate political climate. However, the Gen'an movement has only grown stronger since the festival. I believe Matsuda looks favourable on us. So perhaps a little chaos is only the path to progress."

Ishikawa noticed Saya praying at one of the shrines and waited for her to be done before gesturing her to join them.

"Konnichiwa, Hiroyuki-san. This is High Priestess Kiwako, keeper of the Shrine and its mysteries. She is more knowledgeable than I about the artifacts you brought with you on your return to Kusari, so I asked her to join us."
