Realm of Moon Worshipers
// Note: RP mainly for brothers Alto, Soji and myself. Arigato. //
*Natsuru-Kaito had awakened in a place where four moons could be seen from the cabin window. He realized he had been transported to another realm. He noticed that there was a man sitting next to him with eyes full of worry. And he sat up.* Domo arigato! You have saved me and taken care of me. Is there any way I can repay your kindness? The worry in your eyes lead me to believe I’m not your only concern around here.*The man sitting before Natsu was a shrine priest of the Realm of Moon Worshipers. He was surprised that Natsuru-Kaito had offered his help so freely.*
Shrine Priest: *Our goddess would expect no less of us but to care for any travelers that might appear in our area. But your clothes leave me to believe you are from another realm. Around here we all wear white robes and the goddess crest is a mark that we all have on our arm and you do not possess this. If you would head my request, adventurer. You would be blessed by our goddess and most beloved by our people. You’ve come at the right time as if sent from the heavens by an angel.*The priest proceeded to explain their situation.*
Shrine Priest: Our beautiful shrine has been ruined, I have no idea who did it, but that’s not as important as restoring it. We need to fix the shrine of the moon goddess and return it to its former beauty. The problem is that the things we need to gather are within the moonless garden. Our people will not go in there! They fear that garden. Our bodies are not able to remain away from the protection of the moon. Those of our people who have ventured in there have had their skin melt away. But you, you’re not one of us, therefore, we believe you can venture into the moonless garden. I need you to go out and collect me some glowcap mushrooms, goldleaf willow branches and floating candles from the moonless river, I will gather the rest. Make haste, please. The moons of our realm are sustained by the goddess and they begin to fade if we do not help restore her powers. Once you gather these we’ll restore the shrine by singing to the goddess, you may join in if you wish! Please, be careful!I’m afraid there’s not much I can reward you with, but I think I can still make it worth your troubles.
Natsuru-Kaito: *he listens and smiles, then gets up and stands before the shrine priest with his hand on his heart.* Not only will I fulfill your request, I promise to sing along with you! I am a singer after all! I’ll make sure our songs reaches your goddess’s ears. I don’t require much in return. I only want to find the portal that takes me back to my world. If you can gather information and let me know where the portal is. I’ll come back from the moonless garden with the items you desire.
*Natsu grabbed his sword after seeing the smile on the shrine priest’s eyes and once he stepped outside he saw all the people. All with white hair, white robes, amber eyes and pale skin. They didn’t look very different from each other and he chuckles a bit.* I see why I stand out. I’m off, to the moonless garden! *he heads past a field of rice and there was a sign. “This is the Moonless Garden, Do Not Enter.*

*Alto was flying his jet across the lands of Satou Arcanum.* There are so many doors that look like mirrors. Do you remember what the moon god told us to look for? Something about four moons? Do you see anything like that?

*Soji was slightly nervous in flight but eventually calmed down and enjoyed the excitement as he was looking out each side of the window.* This is amazing! *he then turned to his brother* The moon god said that a distant relative is the moon goddess of the Realm of Four moons and that the portal we should look four allows us to see the four moons reflected in the mirror. So you might have to fly lower so we can get a better look. This might not be so difficult, although the portals look like mirrors, some are pitch black, others reflect sand and each seems to have a different scenery. He also mentioned something about not letting this relative fall for Natsuru-Kaito! That’s going to be a hard one! The ladies always swoon over him. Especially, when he sings.
-
*he’s lowering the altitude of the jet so they could take a better look and notices the differences that Soji had noted.* You’re right, they are different. I know it was something ab out four moons! Look up ahead brother! There’s a lake in font of that mirror and you can see the four moons. Meaning, if we stop there we can see the four moons in the portal. *Hearing about the warning the god had given them.* Well, I brought a black bag we can throw over Natsuru-Kaito and run out of there if we have to. hahaha
-
*giggles* I don’t think that brother will appreciate being stuffed into a bag and pulled away. Then again! if we mention ice cream, he just might jump in the bag himself. I see the portal. *he pointed as they got closer* You’re right! Let’s just go right through!
-
*They flew in through the portal and through some thick clouds. As they came out the other side, they could see the four moons more clearly. They lit up the place just like the sun would but without the burn.* It’s enchanting brother! Look at the place.
-
*Soji looked out the window admiring the new realm and also trying to see where civilization was or where his brother might be.* The planet isn’t that big and the closer we get the more it looks like home but it seems so serene. Let’s keep moving lower in this jet brother so until we reach an altitude where we can see where everyone is and then ask around.

*Unaware his brothers were looking for him. Natsu went in the direction of the garden. He had found it easy to find the place. There was a sign warning the inhabitants not to enter the garden and yet looking inside was a paradise of white flowers. Filled with white roses, lilies and even white sunflowers.* I suppose those are called moon flowers here. *He took a bark of a tree and stuck it through the entrance. Nothing strange happened except the branch was slowly turning white. He pulled out the branch and inspected it. A white glitter dust was all over it and he touched it with his finger.* Hmm it’s dust but nothing that would hurt me. Alright! Here we go! *he took a deep breathe and stepped into the garden to collect the items that would help restore the shrine.*
-
*Points towards a place he sees and describes it to Alto.* Down below is a small village, a shrine that seems to be in ruins and people gathered in a circle. Let’s land near there and find out if they know anything of our brother Natsuru-Kaito. Those people! *Soji notices.* They all look the same. Same completion, same height, same skin tone, same eyes, same hair color. *he kept noticing and then noted.* we will definitely be pegged as outsiders.
-
*he was staring to land the jet near by.* Is that so? I hope they aren’t hostile to outsiders that don’t look like them. At least it will be easier to ask about Natsu. Let’s be careful about this since we have no idea how they will react to us.
-
*As they land Soji jumps out and turns to Alto.* Alto, stay near the jet in case we have to make a quick get away. I don’t want to have to engage in a fight with them if it’s not necessary.
-
*Alto would have preferred to go with his brother but he understood that it was always important to have a back up plan. Just in case the people there were hostile.* Alright, brother! I’ll keep an eye on you though. *he hid the mecha jet under some leaves and climbed up a tree so he could watch what Soji was doing.*
-
*Soji waited a bit for his brother to hide the jet and then watched him climb up the tree before he headed towards the small village. He held his hands up and looked at the group gathered in a circle.* Hi there! *he smiles and looks at all of them until he sees one man with a distinguishing outfit.* You must be the leader here.
*The shrine priest approached him.* Shrine Priest: You are right young man. I am the elder here but I’m the priest of the shrine you see before you. *points at the ruined shrine.* I see, another outsider.
*Soji’s eyes widened.* Another? Meaning there was someone else here that looked slightly like me?
Shrine Priest: *the shrine priest smiles at him.* Yes, we thought it would be a matter of time before someone came looking for him. We sent him on a quest to save our shrine. There is a garden sacred to us that none of us can enter but he can, since he is not of this world, he can more easily enter the garden.
*Soji nodded* So it’s not dangerous?
Shrine Priest: It’s only dangerous for those of us who live there. May I ask how you found your way to our planet.
*Soji wasn’t sure he should give away too much but he responded anyway.* We were led here to retrieve our brother but I guess he just happened to arrive here by chance. *He didn’t tell them Helena had transported Natsu there.*
Shrine Priest: After your fellow traveler is done, we can finish repairing the shrine and sing praise to our goddess.
*Soji looked at the temple.* Well, if you don’t mind. We can help you. I didn’t come alone. *he felt that the inhabitants were sincere and no threat. He waved for his brother Alto to join them.* Why don’t we help you fix the temple until my brother Natsu comes back. And if you need help with song, he is definitely the right one to ask. *he takes out a flute.* And I’m rather skilled with this musical instrument. *holds it up and smiles*
Shrine Priest: It’s as if you were all sent form the heavens!! We feel grateful! Yes, please, if you would help us!
-
*Alto was surprised to be called over by his brother.* Guess he won them over with his charm. *chuckles as he climbs down the tree and heads towards the village.* Hello minna! *bows* I’m Alto, I see you met my brother Soji and we are here to retrieve our brother Natsuru-Kaito. *he looks at Soji.* So brother, what’s happening?
-
*smiles at Alto* Looks like we were destined to help these people. Let’s help them fix their shrine while we wait for our brother to come back. They sent him on a quest. I’m sure he’ll be fine. We just have to trust he’ll fulfill his mission. *After the moon worshipers finished their ritualistic prayers, the brothers went into the church not only to fix it but to do a little inspection. They figured they would use their shinsengumi talents to find out who had ransacked the temple in such a peaceful place.*

*Natsu would walk deep into the garden until he came across a river that was lit by the moon.* Amazing, even though the trees cover much of the moon, it still manages to shine through those leaves. The river looks enchanting! *He then sees the items that he needs to bring back.* I see! So this is where the glowcap mushrooms, goldleaf willow branches and floating candles are. I’m glad they aren’t far apart from each other. *He gazed at the amazing garden. Everything seemed to sparkle and almost sing in his ear. He almost felt compelled to stay there and meditate but he shook his head.* No! Those in the village are counting on me. *He noticed that the path he had come through began to close slowly.* Hmm? What’s this? *So he jolted towards the opening and jumped out quickly. He was almost closed inside. As soon as he jumped out the path was closed.* Whoa! That was close! I better head back! *he made sure he didn’t drop anything and headed straight for the village. He could hear laughter and singing coming from the shrine.* Sounds like they are enjoying their repair work.
