October Mingle
Welcome to Teyvat - a vast magical world of adventure.
The Miko of the Grand Narukami Shrine has arranged for your passage out of Ritou and into the Inazuma islands at large. The nation has been gripped by an oppressive atmosphere ever since the enactment of the Vision Hunt Decree, and only someone unyoked by the Electro Archon can hope to break this stalemate.
Konda Village sits on the outskirts of Inazuma city. A pillar of its community now seeks to move out after losing his Vision. A samurai employed by the Shogunate is being accosted of hiding rations by his neighbours, and he has no recollection of ever dealing in such matters. Forgetting something seems to be the thread that links every former Vision holder's story together, yet their tragedies differ greatly in circumstance. Is the loss of a Vision truly so profound? If so, then why did the gods deliver such a poisoned gift to their people?
A mysterious priestess approaches you with a sincere request - Kazari seeks your aid in purifying the Thunder Sakura around Inazuma, as well as the Sacred Sakura on Mount Yougou. She tells you that these trees absorb the evil from the very land, but cannot dispel it without outside intervention. Here's where you come in: you need to dispel the sealing sigils around the holy trees, so that the filth accumulated within their roots can take form and then be swiftly cut down.
The seals, the trees, and Kazari herself are relics from the olden days - the mystical Inazuma, where kitsune and tengu lived and worked alongside humans and their god. But those days have since ended, and all that is left is a stifling eternity.
State of the World
The Land of Eternity is not without failings. By pursuing 'Eternity' and closing the doors of her nation, the Raiden Shogun has only made the lives of her people more difficult. Exploring the country may give you some clues as to how you can break her enforced stasis. You must first understand the situation of the nation, and then find the natives who also wish to change their world.
Please direct all questions to October's OOC post!

[He's quiet for a moment, thinking back on what he's observed]
Well...I did notice one thing. The upkeep with things that help keep Inazuma safe from the spirit realm seems like it's been...neglected.

But this can mean that the land isn’t part of the idea of eternity. A dangerous mistake.

It's not like it's been completely neglected. This island actually has a very clever purification system in place, using a mix of seals and the Thunder Sakura trees. It even seems like the system was designed with eternity in mind, as it's both durable and simple enough to figure out, so they don't have to worry about losing the knowledge over time.
However...the system still needs an occasional cleansing ritual, or it'll get overloaded. But there doesn't seem to be any local groups that handle the job. Which considering their god is directly involved in the running of the country, you would expect there'd be someone assigned to it.
It's a strange oversight for a god to make. Especially considering the amount of thought and care that went into developing the system in the first place.

He chooses his next words with deliberate care. Speaking slowly,] Is it an oversight or did something happen? If there was someone overseeing it I assume there is a record of that. Tracing that might give us an answer.
…could some event have changed the archon’s attention on ensuring every system is running?
