Event Eight.





To thee I'll return, overburdened with care;
The heart's dearest solace will smile on me there.
No more from the cottage again will I roam,
Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home.





he Town is quiet this week. No sudden quests on the forum post, no roars of werewolves in the distance... just peaceful, peaceful quiet. Of course, it's hot as hell right now, but that aside, it's pretty pleasant. You probably don't want to wander around the Town right now, but...

Naturally, now's when the Town is going to start thoroughly encouraging you to do just that.

You do want to find your doorway back home, don't you?

Better get searching! And don't mind the other worlds you might end up stumbling into first.




Welcome to Awash's eighth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post.

You are welcome to start your own posts or logs for this event as well. If there are any questions, please ask them here. Thank you!

I think it's about time lmao

[ Thanks, Nanjo, he would appreciate no more comments about his outfit. ]

I can tell you about it later, but for now, I believe our priority is to find somewhere safe. If too many Shadows appear, I might not be able to take them down and protect you.

[ Shouldn't... that also be Kei's main concern, anyway? He's sounding surprisingly put together for someone who just witnessed some weird Metaverse shit... ]

Alright let's do it then (also sorry for late tag due to con)

[This was not the place he'd have wanted to do this. Kei feared how Goro would react with what would come next. After all, he could only recall how well Ideal Maki took it when she was told she was only part of someone's ID, and not her own self. This wasn't the same at all, but that situation had stayed in Kei's mind all those years. He could only guess how Akechi would react to learning what he was going to tell him. In such a place, not being truthful would only make things worse and perhaps deadly. He clicks the tip of his tongue in annoyance.]

I'll be fine...I apologize for keeping this from you, young lad...however...

[He stops, watching additional demons, or shadows as he calls them, appear nearby, moving closer.]

...this type of situation is not alien to me, although this world is. I'm afraid I can sense others who share the same power...and ever since I've been here, I have known what lies in you. However, I have operated under the rule that I would only speak out if others had to reveal themselves first, as many have reasons not to share such information. You have always been impeccable in your sword training, and I have enjoyed being in your company. Whatever reasons you might have, they are not for me to judge.

[With that, it probably explained everything Goro may need to know. Unsheathing his sword, he looks at the teenager with a small nod. How Goro would react would be important as to what he'd do next.]

So what you say is true. At this rate it might be too dangerous alone. However, I believe the both of us should be able to take care of such a situation together, if you'd allow me to fight with you.

[> Kei Nanjo requests to join your party. Command?]

... so it was true, after all.

[ And while he doesn't quite say what he's talking about - and, more specifically, who told him about it - the truth is that Akechi had already been informed of Nanjo's powers, not too long before this very encounter.

Still, as useful a resource as Ochako had (inadvertently) been, there's one new bit of information here that is most important to Akechi: that Nanjo knows "what lies in him." Naturally, his deduction is that this means the guy can sense his Persona powers, and while that is something Akechi can work around, he would prefer if the full extension of his abilities remained a secret. He can't very well make allies with a potential threat, now could he?

It would be a shame if this impromptu partnership had to be so... short lived. ]


Very well, Nanjo-san. [ Withdrawing his own sword, he looks ahead, at the Shadows going for the ambush, and smiles. This will be a massacre. ] Then let us fully introduce ourselves on the battlefield.

[ And so he dashes forward, taking up the lead that has so kindly been offered to him. What better way to investigate his skills, right? ]

[Goro's words cause Kei to raise an eyebrow in both surprise and interest.]

You mean to tell me you knew? [Hmm.] Perhaps I shouldn't be so surprised...

[Granted, he had told many others about this; it wasn't hard to think that they might have shared the information to Akechi as well. He didn't seem bothered by it, rather brushing it off. There's a smile on his face now, something that isn't seen often but Goro would probably realize what it symbolized; the signal that a Persona user could completely unwind from the simplicity of everyday life, and fight without fear of hurting others and consequences. The call of pure, raw battle energy, the rush of summoning. All it needs now is a release.]

I agree. Words will be of little meaning. [He takes a few tentative slices of his blade in the air before adjusting it and looking back at him briefly. There's a glow under his feet as he advances following the other Persona user, as energy rises into a storm of wind and light. It had been a while since he had a proper battle.]

I leave it to you. Vishnu!

[The light explodes, reforming into a creature nearly three times his size above him. Idly he pushes his glasses even as he pushes forward.]

How many should we expect?
