How much is a pinch?

When the moment of truth came, he did not die. He wasn't sure of that, but he hoped he was experiencing the vision quest that had been intended. He definitely found himself in a different realm, regardless of how he got there. It was time then, to find some hint of things to come.

He wandered through a great city, as large as he remembered Medinaat al-Salaam was and everything he imagined the capital city to be. At the center, he found a gargantuan statue. This was surely of a great Emperor or even a Fortune.

Wait... was that Butaj...?

Kitteh's trip is my favorite trip so far.

Subject: IUCHI EVENT: Spirit Quest (D9, Early Night)

Matsu Yurio wrote:Yurio didn't really listen to the instructions, he already had a plan. Once given the herbs he sniffed every one and only put the ones he liked into the mix. It was an excellent plan. No one else had thought of it.

Once heated and handed back to him he downed it in one and sat to meditate. Tying back his hair he put on his best meditating face.

Image

Soon things began to go a bit trippy. Not so much an out of body experience as an out of his head experience. His first step on the Quest for the Question was when the Owl of Wisdom told him to climb the Tree of Life. Which had just appeared out of nowhere beside them.

Image

He did so, yet at the same time he sat still. He had mastered being in two places at once. Wooooahhhh! Once he had climbed the tree he found Inu and Neko floating in space. They gave him the next part of his quest. To find the Peacock of the Ages!

Image

He set off immediately, floating on air. Soon he found the Peacock's Guardian and defeated the fiery spirit after an epic kenjutsu duel that would be remembered forever! They had leapt around time and space, clashing blade against fire for almost an hour.

Image

As the guardian collapsed into a pile of ash and blew away on the coloured winds of antiquity, Yurio faced the Peacock of the Ages and completed his quest.

Image

KITTEH CAN DO ANYTHING!!! He asked the question of the future . . . but his vision faded away. To outsiders the littlest Lion had slumped forward almost immediately and proceeded to drool quietly into the ground for the last half hour before starting to snore.

Doji Fukawa wrote:Doji Fukawa and Takahiro were on the hunt for Moto Butaj. It seemed impossible that one with a presence of his size could be missed, and yet she had not seen him. He was not out riding his horse. His voice was not leading you to him with a song. There was no music in the air. No screams of pleasure from his Yurt, or any of the likely candidates.

Where was he? The shrine seemed an unlikely choice, but it was that or start knocking on random yurts.

Matsu Kogo wrote:Oops. Think serious thoughts. Serious thoughts....Duty...cold water....porridge. Ok, got it.

"There is much to be appreciated in it. Honesty is a prized gift. It is a tenant of Bushido, but in the world of the courts, sometimes, it is less prized than sincerity." She smiles. "Though some of my kin might disagree with me, I prefer honesty in most things. This miai has merely reinforced my appreciation of it."

She looks at the Iuchi, her eyes direct. "There is much to what you say. If one's word is broken, it becomes easier to do so. Down that path lies difficulties. " Her eyes become a tinch distance, as she says, "Kin are the bonds that hold us, and bind us. The Unicorn have an excellent balance within their clan for such things, from what I have seen. I am sure it has brought you far, through darkness."

So many good things from that Thread

Ide Dabo wrote:"Light humor?" Dabo reaches out and rips the mustache from Khulun's face. "You believe that mocking Moto Silvia in public is amusing to our guests? I had thought that the Moto settled their grudges honorably instead of resorting to such slander."


So, the question IS there a Moto Silvia or has Dabo come to believe the rumors?
