October Mid-Month Event
Welcome to Teyvat - a vast magical world of adventure.
Two weeks after the Travelers arrive in Inazuma, the conflict between the Shogunate and the Sangonomiya Resistance begin to intensify. At Forneus' behest, you venture west to survey the battlegrounds and consider your next move.
Heading west from Narukami Island will bring you to Kannazuka, the location of the Mikage Furnace. This furnace uses the power of the Tatarigami to produce high-quality swords for the Shogunate. However, sabotage by members of the Resistance have led to the furnace becoming unstable. The Shogunate's soldiers and the Shrine Maidens have set up camp on the island, but the two factions cannot decide on how to address the problem. That's where you come in. Unfettered by the chains of bureaucracy, you can act as you wish. Venture into the Furnace and stabilize it before it blows the island away.
Yashiori Island lies even further west. Its position means that it is currently the middle ground where the Shogunate and the Resistance skirmish. However, the fighting has died down due to torrential rain that blankets the island, as well as the intense Electro energy within Musoujin Gorge. Once, this island was the battlefield between the Raiden Shogun and Orobashi, with the latter defeated and sealed. However, someone broke its seals during the civil war, and the lingering resentment of the Serpent has possessed soldiers on the island, turning them violent.Once again, a stalemate that can only be broken from the outside. This isn't anything new now, is it?
State of the World
The Sangonomiya Resistance have declared civil war on the Shogunate after the establishment of the Vision Hunt Decree. As you travel through Inazuma, you will eventually meet them, as well as their leader. It becomes evident that the two sides are locked in equal balance, and that the civil war does nothing good for anyone... which is why the overseer of the Narukami Shrine has asked you to come. You are unbound by any destiny, and thus able to tip the scales. But to do that, you will need a complete picture of the situation, and to solve problems that no one is willing to face.
No one has seen the Shogun out in public for quite a while. It seems that only a sufficiently grave danger will provoke her from within her castle. The enemy of eternity is change, and you are just that.
Questions about this event can be asked below!

[If that what makes you feel better, then go for it August! Jun continues following the trail, until it leads into a deep pit structure. Or rather, the basement of a building that's missing it's upper floors.]
Looks like we'll have to go down there.
no subject
When they reach the building, and Jun says they'll need to go down, August whistles for Julian again. The raven swoops down to go investigate.]
He's looking for a way down and anything that might try to attack us.
no subject
[Wordlessly, he looks at the surroundings for a moment before he leaps down without any fanfare. He freefalls for a bit, but when he's over halfway down he'll open up his glider's wings- slowing him down enough so he lands gracefully. He then looks up towards August.
Look. He found a way down.]
no subject
Julian caws. He found a rope!
August goes over to the rope to start easing himself down. He doesn't freefall, okay.]
You know, I was trying to be helpful! You could've given me that!
no subject
You were. It's clever to use your familiar for reconnaissance. [Were Jun a normal human, it'd be very appreciated!]
Did he find any threats?
no subject
Just a bunch of rotted wood and rocks and mud and stuff. If there's anything down here that wants to eat us, he can't sense it.
[Easy, easy...when August is closer to the ground, he jumps and rolls to his feet.]
Didn't see anything else.
no subject
Good to know. Still, some beings like slimes can conceal their presence to normal eye. So keep an eye out for any unusual pockets of elemental energy.
[..........In other words there may be slimes in this place, but Jun is 100% not gonna say where they are and instead see if August can figure it out before he gets pounced by a slime.
It's a learning experience ✨ ]
no subject
[Both bird and human make a face at the thought of the slimes. Fuck those guys.
But August does as Jun suggests, glancing around.]
Hey, are slimes edible?
no subject
Mm. I use them as a gelatin substitute.
no subject
[Looking, looking...]
no subject
no subject
no subject
Ameno.
no subject
[He gestures, stopping Julian from flying after where he pointed.]
Probably can't just electrocute them, huh?
no subject
You can, but it may cause a swirl reaction that'll electrocute anything that's near the slime too.
[So, do it at a range. ]
Ameno Slimes will inflate themselves before they attack. That's the best time to strike them.
no subject
[If you have never seen a raven look offended before, Jun, you're in for a treat right now. August just gives him a Look.]
Do it. You can move faster than Jun and I sure as fuck ain't getting close to them!
no subject
He looks between these two. Is this animal cruelty...?]
I could just use geo to lure them out...
[Be nice to the bird!]
no subject
Julian fluffs his feathers.]
Caw!!!
[You can almost hear the "Yeah, boss!" in that caw. August ignores him and turns to Jun.]
Like, throwing rocks? That'll work?
no subject
More like shifting the earth near them to startle them out of hiding, but it should work.
no subject
I mean, I'd get the fuck away from a localized earthquake so go for it.
[Meanwhile, he readies his deck to pop the slimes the second they inflate.]
no subject
And sure enough? That gets a couple of Ameno slimes to appear and pop out of the ground! They're all yours August! ]
no subject
Y'know, I feel like "inflating before I attack and making myself super vulnerable" is something evolution should've gotten rid of.
no subject
[Jun just watched August do that. Not raising a finger to help. This is a tutorial fight after all. ]
Slimes are elemental lifeforms. They don't reproduce the same way as humans, so they don't follow the same rules of evolution.
no subject
Okay, but. That's literally suicidal.
no subject
You only knew about the weakness because I told you. Had you not struck then, they would've knocked you over with their attack.
[So get off that high horse. Truthfully, he's lost count of how many times August has criticized someone in this one venture, so he feels compelled to say something]
How about you focus less on finding ways to criticize others and focus more on improving yourself?
