It never is easy.

I do not know how to process the last 48(?) hours. I guess we can start by focusing on the positives. We got the mirror and are two down in our quest to collect the regalia. Now lets list the badnews. Our forward operating base has been consumed by the invading plane. Benkei's creator did not stop with just Benkei so we have to face a mechanical army as well as a demon horde. Izanami truly believes she is helping us and that us mortals need to live without loss. Lastly and probably the one that stings the most is we failed in getting the last piece of the puzzle. I do not really know what to do. Do we wander the coast until we find the storm monarchs shrine? Do we report to Tao Ren we failed? The one thing that sticks with me is Susanoo claimed some of us lacked resolve while looking at Genji and Benkei. To claim I have resolve and they dont is just not something I can agree with. Thier actions have displayed resolve time and time again. Genji made a decision that effectively exiled him from civilization and Benkei broke the chains of his master to forge his own path. I have done nothing nearly close to that, but how do I tell a demigod, maybe even a real god, that they are wrong. I pray to Tyr we are able to talk to him again quickly and get the information we need.
