Time for a lovely little trip

Post by Shang Li »

The last time I was in Japan I was dealing with a "family" problem. This trip promises to be just as .... "pleasant".

I am going back to Okinawa to help an old friend pay off a debt. I will be providing a religious viewpoint as he and his archaeological team investigates an underwater ruin off the island's northern coast. The dreams I am having as I prepare to visit the Yonaguni ruins are unsettling to say the least.

Wish me luck, my friends.

Hi Shang

I hope your trip goes well.

Hannah.

I hope we can get back to our discussions soon.
I will be who I chose to be.

Of course, if it was man-made, the ruins probably belonged to the Ainu, rather than the Nipponese people...

Well from what I have been able to see, and what an expert in the craft has confirmed. The seal itself is unbroken, still channeling power to it's orriginal intent. The missing components, however are reducing it's efectiveness. (missing 3 of 8 stones). The reasearch team is deceased, I surmise by the fact that this signal is getting out that the research vessel Todai Maru 2 is still overhead and that it's satelite uplink is still running. (One of the researchers explained to me that our connection to the oustide world relied on that fact.) Wouldn't mind knowing if the people that attacked us were renegade archaologists, looters, or cultists though. It's more than a little difficult to aquire automatic weapons here in Japan. If someone could tell me how to modify these "clearing charges" or set them at the entrance to make it fall down, preferably sealing it I would be greatfull. Just switched air tanks, got 3 more to go, at least when I meditate they last almost 12 hours each.

Mappo no Ryuujin's prison must not come undone, regardless of the sacrifice. I am uploading the contents of this computer to my file on the Todai Maru 2's main computer system. I hope that at least one of you can guess my security key it is all I have desired for many years now.

A corruption of the Dragon God? Crap... that's a majin that we don't need around. I think we need Ron for this one, or Koyla, at least to answer the demolition changes you'll need.

I can talk you through it Shang Li. Only if you promise me you'll take steps to make sure you survive though.

I am sorry for the loss of such an esteemed man. It appears that even through our long conversations I barely knew him.

I am afraid I must bear the responsibility for his loss, I sent him the pictures, I asked him for his opinion on the structure, I picked the team that went on the dive.

I need to know, what did they find, what kept them from returning?

Nakamura, please don't beat yourself up over Shang's passing. Master Li went to those caves because HE chose to. The blame for his death does not lie with you.

I know a great deal about such guilt.
Konrad Andreas is at peace. I am something new.
