There aren't many spirits in this world. 👻🚫
🧐🧐🧐 Or maybe there are and they're just hard to sense❓
Still, this time of year would usually be when they're most active so it's a little disappointing. 🪦🥀
I know. I've heard telling stories 🗣📖 can invoke the gods and other spirits (~'o')~ So why don't we tell some stories? (◍ ´꒳` ◍)
If we can tell a hundred tales then maybe something surprising will happen. But a hundred would take a long time and the game isn't as much fun if it isn't in person... 👻🏮🏮🏮🏮🏮😔
Well, let's just tell as many as we can❗❗❗(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ )🌟
There are so many of us from other worlds so there should be something interesting to hear. 🔮
(Summer is spooky season in Japan! It's time to share ghost stories and other tales of the mysterious and unknown. Or just talk to Tsurumaru about spirit things. He's here to have a good time.)

That's exactly who I'm talking about! So they're popular even across the sea. Amazing!
As for if death is good or bad... some may think it's no good. For me, it's just a final surprise.
no subject
a surprise, huh? that’s an unusual way to put it. not that I disagree with the principle, though. death is what it is.
no subject
Maybe this world is summoning death gods to remind people to live lives worth dying for; that way, the final surprise is a good one.
no subject
yeah, that's a good way to look at it. suits me well, actually. eresh, not so sure, but I'm definitely pro "live it up while you have the chance"
no subject
And I'll be sure to share surprises with those around me, too!
no subject
what kind of surprises are we talking about?
no subject
I don't want to make people cry. There are plenty of reasons to do that already.
no subject
cute? feels kind of cute.

no subject
yeah I guess I do.

just a charming outlook to have, I guess.
no subject
I see. Maybe it's one of my better points.
But I've learned different cultures have different perspectives when it comes to life and death.
So maybe that's one way I've been influenced.
What do you think?
no subject
my people weren't afraid of it like some, not exactly. more of an acceptance of it as an inevitability, because they also had a big fatalistic streak. considering some of the practices and even the understanding that their civilization was temporary, makes sense.
makes life all the more worth living, though.

Most people want their homelands to endure. His own name, "Kuninaga" reflects that desire for an eternal country. If he tries to think about it, he there are only really two conclusions he can come to so he tries the first--)
Do countries in your world come and go easily?
