☆ 6th Edict [Voice]

Youko, Rin, Ashura, Umi - if none of you have any other engagements, I found a nice location just a short distance from the east side of the city if you're ready to begin with the lessons.

Oh, and to those of you who know Rokuta - he also went by Enki to some of you, I'm sure - he seems to have left the city.

Perfect timing. I could really use a good sparring session right now.

[soulofocean]

But... Enki's gone too? I had no idea...

[the_ever_king]

I look forward to it.

[the_ever_king]

He's off on his own so often I doubt many would notice for some time unless they frequent the Hall of the Missing as often as I do.

[soulofocean]

You go to that place often? I... find it hard enough to go when I absolutely have to check on someone.

I'm sorry, Mister Shouryuu. You must miss him.

[the_ever_king]

I like to be informed. And it's the fastest way of determining who still remains within the city's boundaries.

Miss him? [He laughs.] This is hardly different from all the random little ventures he likes to go on back home. Without informing me, I might add. Him not being around for a time is not an unfamiliar situation to me.

[soulofocean]

...I'm sure he didn't have a choice. Sometimes people who want to stay here are still sucked into portals and sent home, whether they like it or not.

He may always be back.

[the_ever_king]

Oh, I don't doubt that. And I'm sure were he given the choice, he would choose En over this place.

He may yet, you never know. I can only hope that he'll be useful and bring one of my suugu back with him. But I'm doubting it.

[soulofocean]

Some of your what? Er. That'd be practical, I'm sure!

He's one of Youko's best friends, right? I never talked to him a lot but he seemed like a really nice guy. We were about to storm the Deities' Office together once...

[the_ever_king]

A suugu. Imagine a large tiger that has the ability to fly, and that's more or less what they are.

He gets along well with Youko, yes. He's civil enough when the mood takes him.

...You were about to storm the Deities' Office? What changed your mind?

[soulofocean]

Flying t---

...I was about to say that's weird, but then again I've seen a giant flying fish.

Um. Nothing at all, really. It was just that I was egged on by a curse and sort of... dragged Rin into it, so she dragged Enki too and... so on.

[the_ever_king]

I thought it was a bit strange myself, when I was first arrived into the kingdoms, but Rokuta's true form turned out to be more was more off-putting than the suugu themselves. Amazing animals. One of the only things I miss from back home.

[the_ever_king]

I don't suppose you formulated this idea with any knowledge about the deities themselves, did you? You know anything other people don't?

1/2

[soulofocean]

Weird things are more shocking at the very beginning, no doubt about that. He's... a Kirin, right? He told me about that once! But I can't really imagine what his true form may look like.

[soulofocean]

...Aw, I don't think so. It was just that I got tired of being on the worst end of the deal. The deities get the last word about everything! I thought it'd be a good way to show them we're not about to just accept things without a fight.

[the_ever_king]

Think of a funny-looking white pony, and he's pretty easy to imagine.
