Tragedy has struck the Temple of Benten. In the days following the sudden death of its beloved abbot, the temple remains draped in mourning as prayers, memorial rites and offerings continue well into the evening hours. Yet beneath the quiet grief settling over the district, uncertainty has begun to take root. The abbot's final days were troubled ones, and rumours have begun to spread within the temple walls.
Unable to reconcile the man they knew with the whispers now surrounding his name, the temple's youngest ordained monk has begun seeking discreet assistance in unveiling the truth before fear, gossip and outside pressures decide the truth for their own themselves.
This session is largely a social exposition, with aspects of investigation.
Pacing and Active Times:
While this has been listed as slowform - the goal will be to complete the scene within one week of it's starts. I will be largely available during roughly 9am to 1am AEST (GMT+10), with the exception of a few hours in the evening 2-3 nights of the week.
The first 24 hours of the session will be a soft open to the scene allowing the players to stagger their arrivals and make introductions based on their timezones/availability after which the scene will begin proper.
