After receiving the book, Yuki will quickly cast stop time and attempt to read through it and figure out what's going on.

"Here you go," Jenna replies and hands the heavy silk tomb with thread-embroidered script over to Yuki - then slides over to stand next to Roka.

"I told you I would get the book," she whispers to Roka proudly.
"I knew you would." Roka whispers back, and leans in to kiss her. (But is then stopped by Yuki's time stop)

Stopping Time and sitting down to examine the Naga Book of Secrets, Yuki sees that much of the embroidered script on each of the four hundred plus silk pages has been unraveled and pulled out.

What had once been decoded as a nothing more than a random collection of obscure Shinto Prayers now proved to be something else entirely – and Yuki realized abruptly why "Not even the wisest in all the world could decipher a copy," of the Book of Secrets.

Those numerical sequences that they had originally discovered were not a code after all – they were coordinates. They pointed to a letter on each page that was to be pulled out.

Yunikawa had discovered this secret and done so – unraveling the text and with it, changing the very characters on each page as the threads were drawn out.

What remained was perfectly legible Old Realm.

Yuki flipped the pages and began to read.

---

The Naga Book of Secrets contained a very long-winded and ponderous history of not only the doings of all the Emperors and Shogunates of Nippon from the beginning – even revealing Rai Go-Uda as the true Heir to the throne of Nippon and mentioning a bastard brother, named Takaharu Tenno, as a last resort – but also contains the history and information on the Naga Shrine itself and, more importantly, its purpose.

In addition, it also details with agonizing minutia the maintenance and upkeep rituals used to empower the Shrine, as well as the names and genealogies of every Naga ever associated with its preservation – and lists human contacts friendly to the Naga, including the Kai Shugyo family and other Ninja Clans and mercenary forces used throughout the millennia in times of need.

The result is a very difficult read, with tremendous effort and concentration needed to wade through the four hundred and some pages of endless triviality just to get a scrap of something specific to what one is looking for.

After what was (to her anyway) almost two days of arduous research, Yuki finally gleans the following relevant history –

Out of the Ocean came the Naga, to help Man destroy the Oni. And Foremost of these Oni was Masaki-Dai-Oni, the First and Immortal Oni; the Bastard Child of the Sun and Earth; the Father of all lesser Oni …

The lesser Oni were easy prey, but Masaki-Dai-Oni could not be killed. His will was so strong, that upon death he would simply reincarnate himself into life anew…

Massaki Dai-Oni also tricked the Five Gods into sending their Elemental Heralds down to him to discuss terms for a possible surrender. But through great cunning, he managed to corrupt them, changing them into Five Elemental Dragons to serve as his personal guard - The Order of Shades.

The Order of Shades also could not be destroyed, because to destroy them would be to destroy the very Elements they represented, to which Man had come to rely on.

The only option then was imprisonment – to somehow contain these terrible powers.

A plan was first made to capture the Five Elemental Dragons and in time, with the help of the East and West Winds, the Naga managed to subdue and bind three of them – Umbrunus of Air to the Will of the East and West Winds; Desolikus of Earth into the Bowels of the World; Abysmael of Water into the very Depths of the Ocean.

But the two most powerful - Infernumis of Fire and Lothorum of Wood could not be defeated or bound - proving to be equal to the god-children in every way.

Only when their battle took them into the corona of Umani herself, did Lothorum suddenly remember who he was. Turning on Infernumis - and with the help of East and West Winds - Lothorum drove Infernumis deep into the Earth and sunk roots in to hold him fast. Infernumis raged with rock-melting fire, burning Lothorum horribly - but the Wood Elementals rallied to their Sire to join with and strengthen him.

There, under the Mountain Fuji, they remained, struggling against each other for hundreds of years, until Infernumis finally tired enough to fall into a deep sleep. With it however, came a terrible price - Lothorum grievously wounded and on the edge of oblivion - allowed himself to petrify, turning into stone, in order to prevent his loss to Creation; while the Wood Elementals surrounded the two and produced poison blossoms to keep Infernumis from ever waking.

To this day, the Wood Elementals stand Vigil over their Sire and the sleeping fury that is Infernumis.

After the Five Elemental Dragons had been dealt with, the Naga then created a Great Shrine, and using the most potent magic, created a prison for Masaki-Dai-Oni himself. The Naga would battle him one last time, and if successful, would be able to kill him. At the moment he would reincarnate himself, the Nagas’ magic would take effect, diverging his being into six separate paths – each into the body of a newborn Man – a ‘Sacrifant’ – so known, because it would be sacrificing the fullness of its life to preserve mankind.

Broken in this manner and with the weakness of Man, each piece, in its human vessel, could be forever bound to the Shrine.

The plan worked and all was well for five hundred years, but slowly the pieces of Masaki-Dai-Oni regained power and oneness of mind. After this span of time, the Great Demon managed to will each of his human vessels dead. It was Masaki-Dai-Oni’s plan to reincarnate himself yet again, but the magic of the Shrine was still in effect and when he did so, he came back again into six new vessels, once again losing himself. These new human vessels were then tracked down and captured or slain by the Naga; and having no knowledge of their true identity or powers, were easily redirected into the Shrine prison upon death.

After another five hundred years, Masaki-Dai-Oni once again slew his vessels with the same results. Though not completely foolproof, this then became the accepted situation. The Naga would go out into the world and recapture each new batch of Sacrifants every five hundred years, and thus it still is to this day.

It is the duty of the Naga to maintain and upkeep the magic of the Shrine. Should the Shrine ever lose its power or be destroyed, Masaki-Dai-Oni would be free to rejoin himself into one. This must never happen, as the Naga have dwindled over the millennia and could never again defeat Masaki-Dai-Oni in his true form.

Should Masaki-Dai-Oni become whole, he would thrust Man into the Spirit World and rule the Earth with his Oni minions forever . . .

With the knowledge of the book obtained, Yuki will unfreeze time and quickly explain to everyone what she learned.

"We need to fix the Naga shrine, fast."

She'll finish with.

"Magic."

Yuki replies.

"I can fix the shrine with Epic Magic. After that we'll be able to kill Yunikawa and stop the Masaki-Dai-Oni from being summoned."

She then looks around at the group and looks away. While she's fairly certain it's possible to stop the Masaki-Dai-Oni, she's unsure of what's in store as far as their fate goes.

After quickly gathering some powerful lightweight (though hopefully enchanted) armor, Udo looks up, determined to stop Yunikawa even more than before, "Jenna, what's Yunikawa doing right at this moment? And what are the rest of your, uh, sisters doing?"

"Hit it hard?"

Yuki suggests halfheartedly, walking to a nearby slain Naga and casting Postcognition in order to see if she can glean any insights on what they should do.

"I've been hiding down here for a while," Jenna answers Udo; "After the battle, Yunikawa and the Dragon Teleported away. As I am no longer bound to him, I have no way of knowing where he is or what he is doing right now."

"As for my sisters, they perished in the battle with the Naga I think; as did a few of Yunikawa's Demons - though that Concubine bitch is still around I believe."

'Yes, I am still here,' an unholy voice replies and a familiar figure rises from the ground to fill the entirety of the fissure with and inferno of soul-fire!



[OOC - Combat Round 1 - specify if you are not going to use Surge for Uncanny Dodge...]
  • Jenna and the Samurai are at the end of a two hundred foot long fissure that is about thirty feet wide and seventy five feet deep. All along the sides are various cracks and crevices from large rocks and boulders strew over each other. The fissure is well out of sunlight, but not so dark that one cannot see.
  • The Kyoso-No-Oni rose up from the stony ground on the other side of Jenna and the Samurai and is filling a 50 ft radius around her with Soul Fire.

Yuki will cast Initiative in order to go first and get another action, then she'll cast Haste in order to get a fourth action.

Once that happens, Yuki will cast Dispel Magic on the Soul Fire caused by the Kyoso-No-Oni. She will then cast Killjoy on her, followed by Drain Luck.

Yuki will keep the last action to either cast Dispel Magic if needed, or dodge attacks by the Kyoso-No-Oni.

Yuki will use the luck points she drained from the Kyoso-No-Oni to Jinx whatever actions she tries, and alter chance to make her fail rolls that she tries.

"Damn she's far away." Roka says, raising his fists in preparation to fight. Deciding that now would be the best time to do so, Roka quickly summons Lilitu to assist the samurais. Another spellcaster should help greatly.

"Miya! Lady Shirihata! Take her down with your arrows!" He cheers, giving them a surge each.

Rai uses the initiative spell that is on his sword. Then he Throws the Orriculm spear with a boost by ancestors rebuke before fallowing that up with a sliver dagger.

(If Yuki doesn't stop magic fire Rai will use uncanny dodge.)

Miya nods to Roka and uses the surge the get an Iron Warlord Mask Crit with her normal bow and arrow. She'll then use Multi-shot to shoot 2 additional shots with her other action.

Miya will also use Uncanny dodge if needed.

Jumping atop his Kirin, Udo casts Initiative via his Buckler, and then proceeds rides up close and personal with the demon, multi-attacking it 4 times with his Demon-Slaying Naginata and also turning on his Celestial  Armor, which should radiate against the demon at this range.

[He hopes that his bow will protect him from the flames.] (Udo readies himself to use Uncanny Dodge)

Reflexively casting Initiative, Yuki throws a Dispel Magic at the Kyoso-No-Oni, but the demon Counter Spells and the soul-searing flames engulf everyone in agonizing torment! Uncanny Dodge is also proven futile, as the soul fire exists in both the physical and spirit world simultaneously and completely fills the fissure (only physically leaving will get one out of it).

Aside from Roka (and Yuki by proxy with her Postcognition spell) who had been drawn through the Heart of Creation, no one had ever felt such astonishing anguish before! The soul fire embodied the raging spirits of all the Oni ever destroyed - and as the ghostly flames lapped at the skin, they tore at one’s very being like a swarm of hungry piranhas!

It took exceeding effort on the part of the Samurai not to just wither up and die in the unholy conflagration and they knew that they could not survive in this inferno of hell fire for very long.

As it is, Yuki spends 2 Luck points to Save, loses 1 point of Constitution, and takes 1 Wound Point.

Roka spends 2 Luck points to Crit his Save and takes no Damage.

Udo makes his Save, loses 1 point of Constitution, and takes 9 Wound Points – and becomes Disabled, but is allowed to spend Luck for Half and ends up only taking 5 Wounds and remaining in the fray.

Udo’s Ki-Rin is slain outright – along with all the rest of his animal menagerie except for the white tiger Bleach.

Miya spends 1 Luck point to Save, loses 1 point of Constitution, and takes 2 Wound Points.

Rai spends 2 Luck points to Save, loses 1 point of Constitution, and takes 4 Wound Points (after Luck for Half).

Sakura spends 1 Luck point to Save, loses 1 point of Constitution, and takes 1 Wound Point.

Lady Shirihata Crits her Save and takes no Damage.

Jenna spends 1 Luck point to Save, loses 1 point of Constitution, and takes 3 Wound Points.

---

[OOC – anyone want to change their strategy for the first round? The above represents only the Kyoso-No-Oni’s surprise attack. She hasn’t even Attacked herself yet. I can go ahead and apply your above combat intentions, but then you’ll still be in the Soul Fire at the beginning of Round 2 … ]

Yuki cringes and almost falls to her knees from the pain, but manages to stay standing.

"Roka, tell her to stop!"

Yuki yells, gathering all her focus and casting an instant Epic Magic Spell to Enthrall the Kyoso-No-Oni, causing it to fall in love with Roka.

She'll use however many luck points she needs, along with alter chance, to make it work.

Roka considers running out of the fire, but is stopped by Yuki's plea for him to shout at the Concubine stop.

"What good'll that do?!" He thinks to himsef for but a moment, before understanding Yuki's thought process. Yuki obviously knows that since Roka is so incredibly masculine that maybe the sex demon to end all sex demons would stop for him. Seems logical.

"STOP!" He shouts, as the soul fire burns around the group

Sakura tries to Teleport everyone out of the fissure, but the Kyoso-No-Oni counters it - keeping everyone stuck in the soul fire.

Yuki then uses Epic Magic to Enthrall the demon to Roka; and the Kyoso-No-Oni's counter magic fails to stop her.

When Roka gives the order to stop, the terrible soul-blistering flames immediately disperse; and the ten foot tall, four-armed, horned female demon slides over to 'her man.'

"Forgive me Master!" she begs, "it is my duty to slay you all, for the great Masaki-Dai-Oni, that he may return. Allow me to slay these and Yunikawa, that you will be granted the honor of hosting the all powerful demon-god for yourself."

"Erm.. Maybe later?" Roka sends back to the 10 foot tall, antler-clad woman, with a look of utter confusion and bewilderment, but quickly gets over it.

"Don't worry Jenna, I'm sure there's enough Roka to go around." He then says in response to Jenna with a grin, before turning to the group.

"So, I guess the fight's done now. Sakura, can you heal everyone hurt? We need to be at top of our game when facing Yukinawa."

"Maybe but it would also make the father of demons stronger. Which is the last thing we want. Not to mention the Fire dragon that escaped." Rai sits down on a rock nearby looks down towards the ground sighs and readdressing the group says, "Not to sound doubtful in our abilities but we are stuck between a rock and a hard place and I don't see much of a way out."

"Whew!", Yuki says, relieved that the epic spell worked.

She'll then hurry over to Roka and whisper, "She's in love with you now... you're welcome, hehe".

Then she'll use a surge to call down a Kirin.

"I'm going to ask the Ancestors for help. They said it would be up to us to stop Yunikawa if the Naga failed... and they failed, but we can't stop Yunikawa with the shrine destroyed."

Yuki announces to everyone.

"Aha. Thanks for that." Roka whispers back with a chuckle. Probably best to still act like its his own charm though.

"That sounds right. Do you want us to do anything with? Udo still has that plate, if we can get back to the Tree we could all go, I think." Roka asks

She replies.

"As for what to do... avoid Yunikawa? Probably? Maybe the Kyoso-No-Oni can help somehow."

Realizing how bad Yuki looks (she is Disabled after all) - Sakura yells - "Yuki! Stop! You mustn't run around like that in your condition!"

She then casts Heal Off The Cuff on Yuki, taking 2 Wound Points more Damage herself.

"Ouch."

"I can kill Yunikawa for you dear," the Kyoso-No-Oni offers to Roka, "He won't suspect me and is not as strong as you might think, when his guard is down. None of you humans are very strong. Quite easy to pluck your spines out while you sleep. I never understood why you were always unconscious half the time. So easy... hehehehehe ..."

"That's kinda creepy." Roka replies, growing increasingly uncomfortable with the Kyoso-No-Oni's form of love.

"Though I suppose I should ask, what would happen if you killed Yukinawa. How strong would the first Oni's become?"

Udo remains in silence as this transpires, nearly all of his animal companions burnt to soul-ash. Yoshi, the squirrels, the twins, the hawks, Kirito's monkey, the skunks, Autolycus... All gone now, because I was too selfish to let them stay somewhere safe. Wanted to bring them with me. Starling's still safe, though... Should have left more back in Kurokawa, to the kid. Stupid me for bringing them along. Farking stupid. Damn it... I knew something like this could happen...

He angrily eyes the KyosOni before looking to his feet in rage. Instinctively, he shuffles towards Bleach, nuzzling his hand on his back. After trying to calm himself, he speaks up again, would be silly let this get to me... we need to finish this, he looks up to Yuki and the rest,
"Killing Yunikawa won't help too much, considering what the Book of Secrets told us. We need to capture him and restrain him before he can do anything. Unsure how to go about that... Maybe lock him in a magic ward? Goddammit, I don't know..."
He breathes, "Yuki, uh, do you think I'd be of assistance if I came? The Kirin is a spirit of sorts, I think, so I can summon it once again. May even be able to summon more than one if the apples are unharmed."

"Probably not."

Yuki replies bluntly.

"But you can come if you want."

"As each of you vessels are shattered," the Kyoso-No-Oni replies to Roka's question, "a portion of Masaki-Dai-Oni is reformed within all of you. That is why you bear the Mark. It will make you all even more powerful as well; until only one of you and The Father is left ..."

Yuki listens to Roka and the Kyoso-No-Oni's conversation as she waits for the Kirin.

Udo nods, "I think I'll, uh, join you then. Even if it isn't necessary, it can't hurt. The Kirin is nice to have around anyway..."
Using a Earth Surge, he attempts to raise another Kirin for the new day.

Roka nods.
"What exactly do you mean by more powerful? Like, physically?"

"Yes," the Kyoso-No-Oni replies, "You will take on more and more of The Father's Mark, becoming less human. Less weak. Stronger. More like The Father."

As Roka talks with the she-demon, two Ki-Rin fly out of the sky and down into the fissure. Initially they balk at the presence of the Kyoso-No-Oni, but some coaxing from Udo gets them to land at the far end of the fissure, so Udo and Yuki can come over to mount up.

"Roka, keep a... Strong composure in our short absence. Rai and Miya, just uh, make sure Yunikaqqndoesn't get the drop on you 4."

With a solemn nod to Yuki, Udo heads off with her to the Ancestral Palace.

Yuki immediately hops onto her Ki-Rin mount.

"To the Ancestral Palace!"

She orders, holding a fist into the air.

"Good luck everyone!"

Rai sighs and says, "I don't have any idea of how to hide your spiritual energy but I can make it harder for most people to find us." He makes a  readily overlooked campsite.

"Wait a minute. The trip to the Ancestral Palace is pretty long..." Udo bites his lip, "Even if we can shave it off by several hours, it'll still be out least be a six hour trip, and that's only the distance with extreme  effort. Yuki, I think we should consider just bringing everybody along-- too uh, dangerous, I'd say, considering how little time we have. Yunikawa is probably planning to seek us out and kill us,  and 6 hours may just be enough."

The Forest Ward looks at the Kirin and begins to speak to them, "Can you two call over some of your friends to come over here? The world is at stake here, and we need to get to the Ancestors in safety."

"Wait, what'll we do with Jenna if we're going to the ancestors?" Roka asks.
