Another trick of the island. At first, I had thought I came back after some time away, but with so many people I knew now younger or older and others confused, this must be another game

Watanagashi? What does this festival celebrate?

[fate_cleaver]

The cleansing of sins.

[fluorite_flux]

Then, it is for purification? Such as through water?

(( OOC: Fay means "misogi," ritual purification through submerging in water. ))

[fate_cleaver]

Heh. Exactly right, actually.

Each person takes a piece of cotton representing their sins from the past year. Then they let the cotton flow down a river in front of the local shrine, which is meant to cleanse them.

I'm alright. A little tired, but that's all. Thank you for your concern, Ritsuka.

[fate_cleaver]

The island happened. Don't worry, me and everyone else will be back to normal in a week or so.

Still, I say that and it does feel like I've been gone twenty years...

...You have been affected as well, Rena?

[fate_cleaver]

Oh, Wizarmon. Yes, it seems I have been.

[wizital]

...It seems that everyone is either growing old, or reversing in age.Quite a strange event.

Are you all right?

[fate_cleaver]

Oh, I'm fine. Just a bit older and a bit less energetic.
