[Event Post] Kaikori: The Eye of the Storm

[duelacademynpcs]

::So anyone implicated with the disaster at Heartland City, you've been hurried away into Kaikori, the private gated community owned by the Wakahisa family.

It is a surreal place, caught in perpetual twilight. Resembling Ballonlea and Glimwood Tangle from Pokemon Sword & Shield, except the mushrooms are replaced with crystals growing out the ground and trees, it centers around a circle of shops and buildings including a convenience store, a gym, a small school to tutor the children of Noriko's friends and key employees, before branching out into company apartments to the south east, a motel and an inn to the west, and private homes in the North West to North to North East.

Perhaps you would like to take a break, interact with others, and breath before things likely get worse.

Fortunately, every time the government seems to come into Kaikori, they've been unable to locate Yamamoto Suzume, Wakahisa Noriko, or Mr. and Mrs. Tsukumo. So for now.

A piece of twilight paradise before things likely get so much worse.::

*Kotori watches it as it spells out it's name... but then seems to be looking for more items, meaning it hadn't finished.*

Hang on, I'll find you something.

*She goes to the kitchen, and gathers up what she can find; Chopsticks, forks, spoons, pencils, pens... then brings them outside for the creature, setting them down and standing back, motioning that it can use them to continue.*

You can use these.

::It sparkles proudly that it can spell.::

*Okay, as eerie as this creature is, it's also very cute!
Kotori crouches down a little.*

Abraxia.

That's a really nice name!
But I guess I should stick to yes or no questions from now on...

Hmm... do you live here at Kaikori, Abraxia?

[duelacademynpcs]

::Signals yes.::

[longingfreesia]

And were you curious about us?

[duelacademynpcs]

::Signals yes!::

[longingfreesia]

We should introduce ourselves then!

I'm Tsukumo Kotori, and this is my husband, Yuma.

*She gestures towards Yuma who has walked up beside her.*

We're staying here at Kaikori for a little bit, though we don't know for how long.

::Twirls around and slinks around your leg to make it clear she understands and likes you.::

[longingfreesia]

Awwh, you're really cute!

I'm really happy you don't mind us being here.

Can I pet you a little?

[duelacademynpcs]

::Wags her tail proudly at being called cute.

... And then nods yes at being pet.::

[longingfreesia]

*Kotori smiles as she scratches the top of Abraxia's head. You can tell on her face that this was something she needed.*

Thank you for visiting us today.
