#FFBF00 [Regarding the Yellow Map]

[Font colour #FFBF00]

Good evening, this is Tonbokiri.

I would like to report to you all about the pieces of yellow map that were given to us by the town recently.

Once assembled, Jion-dono, Kaoru-dono and myself followed the map to a field in Flavo. There was nothing immediately visible, so we tried digging. We soon found a trap door, which opened onto a ladder leading down into the ground. Once we had enough light to investigate the room at the bottom of the ladder, we found a large wooden door.

This wooden door seems to be not only physically very sturdy, but also sealed by magical powers, as nothing can scratch it.
There is a keyhole, so anyone holding a key from the town is welcome to try it in the lock.
** I must warn, should your key fit the door, do not enter alone! The door gives of a malicious air, and there is very likely something dangerous beyond it. It absolutely should be further investigated as a group.

Until a key is found or some other clue is uncovered, that is all I have to report.

Given that the door has that dangerous air about it, I shall include it in my routine to patrol near there. Yet anyone is welcome to go and take a look for themselves at any time so long as you are cautious.
[[Directions to the fallow field in Flavo here.]]

It would seem that we have one more mystery to pursue here.



[OOC Notes]
To expedite the investigation of this door, I will share what the mods told me about this!

-Nobody in the town has the key to this door. Yet. And nothing can force the door.
-"But maybe, just maybe if you finish up the church completely and make it more like it used to be (complete with offerings and some sort of service), something might pop up..."
-The characters will not get any idea from the town that this is what they need to do to make the key appear.
-"Anyone with a strong ability to sense holy or unholy forces, or dark magic, or things along those lines will be able to feel it by the door, and possibly trace it to the church, if their ability to sense it is strong enough!"
-In addition to finding a similar power between the door and the church, Shiho's psychometry powers will also reveal some connections directly to the church*, so the characters will not be clueless for long once she (or anyone else with similar powers) checks it out.
-The mods have asked that since "this one's a doozy and pretty plot point", that we need to thread out some of the church restoration, and certainly the service, with hopefully it being open to as many characters participating as possible.
-Any characters interested in cleaning up the church and moving towards doing the service, please run with it! The mods are letting us have free reign to get it to that point. (OOC-ly, I myself will not have the time to take over this, although Tonbokiri will be curious and keep tabs on it.)
-Once the service is set up to go, the mods can be contacted again for details about what will happen next!
-"If you need more details on what needs to be done or want to test out some sort of attempt, please feel free to run it by [the mods] at any point!"

This is a race!

But alright, it'd probably sound fun so youre both on! If you win, I'll let you check out mytablet.


( A beat, )

So what's in it for me?

It's been cold so a warm cup would be real worth winning.

( Of course, win or lose, Mutsu would still show his tablet to Tonbokiri. The other spirit might be interested in some of the upgrades he's gotten. But actually acknowledging that takes the fun out of a silly challenge. )

You, me, and Mikuniguro tomorrow!

I'll make sure to bring a good treat too.


( Tonbokiri is serious and earnest. It's good for him to have fun. )

Good because he's sure going to lose!

( BUT THAT'S IT. Yes. He ends on this note. Talking smack to a horse. )
