Good afternoon, Union! I hope your day thus far has been as productive as possible!

[The intense-looking boy on the Warp Band gives an impassioned salute and moves the camera over to encompass both him and a girl around his age.]

Yes, good afternoon! For those who do not know us, I am Pearl Fey, and this is Kiyotaka Ishimaru.

[The girl in question gives a smile before bowing politely, looking every inch the proper young lady. ]

As I am sure you are all aware, the recent earthquakes in the city have taken a toll on all citizens, some to a harsher degree than others. That’s why we feel it is of the utmost importance to deliver this information to you as promptly as we can!

We of the Kurain School in Ninetails Vale practice meditation as a way to hone our spiritual abilities, but it can have many positive effects even for those who don’t study the spiritual arts! That’s why the two of us have decided to pool our efforts to help anyone in Union who may want to learn how to properly meditate in order to help deal with any stress or negative energies that may be burdening you at this time.

If you are interested in calming your spirit once more, we will be giving an instruction at the Kurain School for both beginners and those with some experience already! We hope that you take this offer into consideration.

As always, stay vigilant!

It's up to you, of course, but your presence would certainly be welcomed!

[A beat.]

Ah! Are you a friend of Fey-kun's, by any chance?

[ She finally stops playing with the bit of jewelry around her neck. It's rather large, and quite distinctive. He might have seen one before. It's very similar to the one that Pearl wears, although the stone is very different. ]

I'm her cousin, actually.

[ She gives him a slightly haughty smile. ]

I see!

[Very interesting! He looks surprised, but not at the jewelry, which holds no particular significance to him.]

There are more spiritually-inclined people here than I thought...I'll take that into account for the future!

[What exactly he's taking it into account for isn't clear. SUSPICIOUS.]

It's Ninetales Vale, of course there are.

[ Was that a bit of a tinge from her? Maybe. She hid it well enough. Who was this kid anyway? ]

What'dyou mean "for the future?"

I...suppose that does make sense. How could I miss something so obvious?!

[He seems very distressed for a moment, but then remembers her other question.]

No matter what work you do, it's important to take all groups in the city into account for a career unmitigated by complications, don't you think so?

[That's...most of the story, but he isn't telling her every single detail. If that warrants the Magatama, so be it!]

[ You really were a weird one, weren't you? All the more reason for her to keep her spiritual eye on you.

Getting a good read from him off the Warp Band was impossible, though, and she definitely wanted to know what this kid's deal was. His intentions were probably pure as untouched snow, but he was pal-ing it up with her adoptive baby cousin, so she couldn't help but be ~~nosy~~ overly cautious.

... "What work she does," you make her sound like some kind of sketchy psychic. Nozomi smiles through his words. ]

So you're the spiritual type, then? I'll see you around the school? Or around the Vale?

[Unintentionally offending people seems to be one of Ishimaru's most honed skills. Not that he enjoys it, of course.]

I may not be exceptionally spiritual by your standard of the word, but I do consider myself such! Currently my studies take up my free time, as they should, but perhaps we will encounter each other now and again.

Oh, do you? In what way?
