Chapter Two - And the Owl Came Back~ [Video/Action]

[The video feed will come on with a figure that most everyone in Luceti is probably familiar with by now. The large owl towering over the journal and an overcast sky above him as it rains lightly.]

Greetings citizens of Luceti, I am Wan Shi Tong, he who knows ten thousand things.

[Sound familiar?]

In my world I am the spirit of knowledge and I have my own library for the betterment of mankind. As such, I believe my services here would be most valuable to you.

However, it would seem that for some reason I am unable to enter your library. I would appreciate an explanation or perhaps some assistance in this matter.

[The feed will then cut off. And in the mean time, the owl will be sitting outside the library. In the rain. He's getting wet out here.]

[OOC: Feel free to either respond or run into Wan Shi Tong getting wet outside the library!]

[Sounds like Ginko's kind of place. ~~Except that there's no place Ginko would stay in for long if he could so help it.~~]

Well, there's no shortage of strange knowledge to collect here, with people being from different worlds. I've been here a day and I'm already dizzy with the diversity.

[He'll shake out his umbrella a bit before opening it and stepping back out into the rain under it.]

I don't know if any of these buildings are open and available to begin a collection, or will be large enough to take care of one properly.

... No, I do not.

[Well he certainly has a point there, but then Wan Shi Tong looks at the other buildings nearby.]

It seems unlikely that any of these buildings are capable of housing myself, much less a collection.

That is a difficulty. I've not had to provide housing to a spirit, before.

[Hmm. He pauses, and just steps aside so that people could go in and out of the library at their leisure.]

Are you the only spirit here?

I do not believe so. Though I have not had the opportunity to meet any of them yet.

Hmm. This village's relationship with spirits is still something I need to learn.

I will need to learn that as well. Though I have discovered that Luceti has it's own spirits.

Oh, so you decided to look after everyone else after all?!

Oh? I'll have to learn more about them, then. Nothing quite like Mushi...

[Which reminds him!]

Have you heard of mushi?

I have not. What is Mushi?

... What do you mean by this?

They're a form of life common in the world I was pulled from. I studied and worked with them and people with them.

Once you have a library set up, I can contribute at least a few stories for you.

That would be most agreeable. I look forward to reading your stories.

[Wan Shi Tong is starting to like you, sir.]

What is your name?

My name is Ginko. Might I know yours, as well?

[Seeing the broadcast raises some questions. She's not sure what happened the week prior...but given their conversation over tea? She has an idea, but nothing solid. And frankly, he probably brought it on herself.

Either way, she has errands to run that happen to to bring her near the library. And when she spots Wan Shi Tong just...standing there...she'll take pity on him. The rain around him just sort of begins to slide off as she nears, leaving him at least somewhat dry.]

Hello, Wan Shi Tong.

[The sudden shift in the rain is most curious and he looks down at Saori when she addresses him.]

Greetings, you are Saori, correct?

[He hasn't fully read the journal yet but has seen mention of her. Otherwise... he doesn't remember her at all.]

[She quirks her head, confused.]

Yes, I am. Have I left such slight an impression that you'd forget me so quickly?

Well, you were here earlier. Last time you were seen was about a week ago.

[Well this was a fascinating turn of events]

You caused a bit of a stir last time. Angered a few people, rustled a few feathers, if you'll excuse the use of speech.

[There was a girl wandering the streets of Luceti. She was always much more active and willing to come into the village during a good rain. Today she had come in to find more clothes at the clothing store. Apparently the humans here like it better when she wore clothes that were not dirty and tattered.

Which may explain why she's wearing a large, green halter top and a pair of orange men's shorts. Styling has never been high on her list of things to do. She just liked the halter as it didn't get in the way of her large pair of white wings. Wan Shi Tong may be interested to note that while her clothing soaks in the rain her skin does not. Almost as if it's absorbed right into her skin.

She has larger facial features, legs, arms, fingers, and toes than a normal human has. The blue scales that dot her body in clusters should also be another dead giveaway that the woman who slows to look the spirit up and down is not at all human.]

I have not seen a creature such as yourself in my world. [She tilts her head. Unsure of the proper greeting. The sensation she gets from the owl is not that of a demon or a God, but he is so large she is not sure. Good thing being blunt is her specialty.] Are you a God?

Oh? If I was here before, then how is it that I don't remember?

I am Wan Shi Tong, he who knows ten thousand things.

I assure you that I have an excellent memory. If we have met before, I would not have forgotten.

[Except he has.]

[Wan Shi Tong observes this girl with some interest. She is certainly different from the humans he has seen walking about. How curious. However, he does not speak until she addresses him.]

I am a spirit of knowledge.

And what of you? I have not seen your kind before either.

Your memory has been changed I would wager by the Malnosso. They have a habit of performing shifts on individuals for their own study and amusement.

[Although this could also be a death penalty he had heard of. No matter, it was still an accurate statement]

[That name puts him at ease - foreign, but only a bit compared to a lot of the very western presence this village is dominated by. Mainland Asian is a much more familiar tone.]

I hope I'll be able to read or hear some of your stories as well, Wan Shi Tong. For now, I'll go grab a map of this place. We can find somewhere dryer to read it out of the rain, then.
