Shard #1 [video/action]

[The feed turns on to a girl with long blue hair and a pipe in her hand, sitting somewhere inside of the pagoda.]

Uh...hello? Did I finally get this thing working?

Ah...hello. Um, this place...oh I said hello twice, didn't I...

Well! Um, my name is Tsubaki. Tsubaki Kasugano. [She bows.] I'm the head miko and figurehead of the Omekata temple in Sakurami, Japan.

Is anyone from Sakurami here...?

A temple leader, then? [she bows in return, her hand over her chest as she would to a noble, figuring it's only polite.]

I'm sorry, I've never heard of anyone from that place, but then again I haven't met everyone here yet. I'm Gal Cecil. Is there anything I can help you with, miss?

Oh, thank you anyways.

Could you, perhaps...tell me where...exactly this is?

I-I know about the cats with the scrolls, but...

This place...? Well, I wish I could give you a straight answer, but all I've got is what other people have told me. It's called the "Gardens", there's that much. And no one's been able to figure out how to leave yet.

Someone said it was another world, but I'm not sure how I feel about that.

[Tsubaki gives a little sigh.]

Then you really don't know more. Hmm. I was almost certain...

Certain? I haven't been here too long. Those who have could probably give you better answers than me, sorry.

Oh, that's fine. Thank you for trying, ah...Cecil-san.

"san"? [she guesses it must be a form of address, but she's never heard it before.] I can show you around, though, if you need a guide. Or someone to help you find a place to stay.

Oh, yes. It's an honorific, in my native Japanese. It's usually reserved for people one has just met, or must maintain a mild level of respect with.

[She clears her throat.]

I think I would best try exploring this place, myself. Thank your for the kind offer, though.

Well, you learn something new every day. Would you be more comfortable if I used it to address you, too?

All right, but the offer still stands if you ever want to take me up on it.

It's obviously not your native tongue, so I'm fine without it.

You're very kind.

I'll stick to "Miss Kasugano", then.

[she waves a hand.]

I was pretty disoriented when I got here, too. So I know what it's like.

Miko, huh? How strong are ya?

Physically? Not very.

I'm talking spiritually. Can you call down any gods?

[Tsubaki narrows her eyes.]

Why do you ask such a question?

Professional interest.

[Not. Amused.]

That's a rather personal question, and I doubt it's actually for your profession.

You can say you don't have much power, you know. I don't mind.

It's not that I don't. I'm just...

[She pauses for a second, and puts her hand up to her chin to think.]

...wondering if we're on the same page or not.

I take it you're referring to Shinto gods?

Well, you're a miko right? Then there's nothing else I could possibly be referring to.

Another miko! That's great! Welcome to this place.

Don't know where Sakurami is, but I'll make you feel at home right away. I'll hit the area in with an earthquake in a couple hours. Feel free to stop me by force, unless you want the area to be in ruins!

[!!!!]

E-Earthquake?! Why...why would you do that?!

Does it make you angry? Cause it's going to be a big one!

[She gestured, and next to her, visible in the mirror, a sword appeared in the air, made out of energy. She grabbed it by the hilt, and moved it down hard in the ground, which split around her.]

You'd have to stop me, miko, or else you'll be in big trouble!

What do you expect me to do?! I can't fight!

[She is shaking the vine now.]

...What? You got to be kidding me!

Not really. I'm very physically weak.

What is it with this stupid garden and only getting pacifists! You're a miko, you're supposed to be able to fight really well!

Last I checked, miko were just managers of shrines, not ninja or whatever.

[Tsubaki sighs.]

I never said I was a pacifist, though. I just can't fight.

No, Miko have a shrine they protect and they also fight youkai and whatever else causes trouble in the area. That's the whole point!

I'm calling off the attack if you can't even fight...

Well, youkai aren't real from where I'm from. All I have to protect my shrine from are bad outside influences.

Good then.

Your shrine must be completely boring.

Maybe I'll reconsider.

We're far from boring. If cults interest you.

Would it really be good to have the death of a thousand innocent people on your hands?

I don't care for cults. I'm a celestial, a tennin - that's a holy being if you don't know. If I want the religious, all I have to do is talk to my kind.
~~Who aren't here, thankfully.~~

Who said anything about killing? You could evacuate them. Not to mention that there aren't even that many people here.

This place drags tennin here? Jeez.

Figure of speech. And there'd still be property damage.

I've destroyed entire shrines before, easy to build up again if I want to. That's not a problem.

And you have no moral pangs of guilt for any of this? [Siiiiigh.]

Why would I? I'm already holy. 'Guilt is but a mere distraction from the self.'

Surely, as a miko you must know that.

Uh-huh. You don't seem very holy.

And I think I've already made it clear that I'm not the type of miko you're used to.

Oh, I'm objectively holy, it's not just some human thing. Even my blood's holy, a drip would be poison for any demon! [Was she...bragging?]

Well, I assumed you'd at least know a tiny bit of religious scripture. What kind of miko are you supposed to be if you can't fight and don't know any scripture at all?
