Where moonlight wanes, and darkness spreads, lies a space where a promising meeting would be held. 🌙
Thanks to the lovely and patient @rasenkaikyo for the delightful opportunity for a little photo session between the gals.

Livvy Ahtynwyb: So where are you all thinking? Dalmasca, or Bozja?
Hinako Daigo beams at Crimson Bull. Hinako Daigo: Likewise, Bull. I got word of movement and made my way back here accordingly. Crimson Bull: I just wonder what could be in Bozja that Garlemald would put their grubby mitts on... Crimson Bull seems lost in thought. Livvy Ahtynwyb: It's definitely weird. Like, why now? Crimson Bull: Either they're laying the worst trap in history, or… there's actually somethin' there. Lif Silverlode: Even if something could have survived what happened there, it beggars belief that Garlemald would have waited so long to recover it. Suraja Solveig: I mean, could be both, no? Livvy Ahtynwyb: Yeah, could definitely be both. ...I'm just hoping this doesn't lead to worse things for Dalmasca. Crimson Bull: As long as those rocks are gone, I don't think it can be any worse than that. Crimson Bull chuckles nervously. Hinako Daigo: Is it true that the IVth Legion has been building their presence there? Suraja Solveig refrains from making another joke about Bull becoming a rock. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Yeah, the IVth have kept Dalmasca under lock and key. Hinako Daigo: Sorry, in Bozja I mean. Livvy Ahtynwyb: That, I don't know. I don't think anyone knows much at all about Bozja unless they've been living there. Crimson Bull: Only thing I've been told of Bozja is there's a crater where Dalamud said 'hello'... Suraja Solveig: I read about that..! The meteor. In th'library, I mean. We're goin' there? Livvy Ahtynwyb: Two possibilities, the way I see it. Either there's something left among all the rubble, or there's something that's got van Gabranth quaking in his boots. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Like... revolution. Maybe. Hinako Daigo folds her arms. Hinako Daigo: Perhaps a little bit of both. Crimson Bull: Suppose with liberations happening, it'd be in their best interest to quash anythin' before it got too big... Suraja Solveig: Don't mean t'hold back th'conversation but... how large a force are we talkin'? Livvy Ahtynwyb: I don't think anyone outside the Empire really knows. Crimson Bull: That's a good point...are they fully mobilizin'? Or is it a smaller force? Lif Silverlode: I have a hard time believing that it could be something as simple as a revolution. Based on my limited understanding of Othard's current state, Dalmasca is bigger and has a greater recent history of uprising. It makes no sense for them to pull out just to quell a revolt in such a small area. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Yeah... Yeah, that's true. Hinako Daigo: The IVth Legion predominant in the area makes use of more arcane tactics few legions typically trend. The issue of the 'holy stones' from the last mission were a sample of that. I would consider that they have discovered something new of interest. Crimson Bull laughs nervously at the thought of more magic stones... Livvy Ahtynwyb looks a little surprised. Lif Silverlode: Also, Bozja is closer to Garlemald itself. Why didn't one of the other legions from the homeland come in? Something is off. I have to agree with Hinako's assessment. Livvy Ahtynwyb: You, uh... have a lot of experience with the IVth? Lif Silverlode: No. I've never been to Dalmasca. I'm just thinking from a tactical point of view. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Mmm, yeah. Crimson Bull: All I know about the IVth is I owe them for these beauty marks on my arms. Livvy Ahtynwyb nods, a serious expression on her face. Hinako Daigo seems lost in thought. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Well, I'll help you out from a distance. I've got some shit to settle closer to Valnain. Not quite within range of Rabanastre, but maybe close enough that I can help if push comes to shove. Crimson Bull: Yeah, we'll have to see how badly they want whatever it is in Bozja... Crimson Bull seems lost in thought. Livvy Ahtynwyb: So Suraja, have you done much Garlean-fighting? Livvy Ahtynwyb is wondering if Suraja Solveig is a Dalmascan Viera. Suraja Solveig: No, but I've heard nothin' but terrible things so I'm lookin' forward to it. Suraja Solveig shrugs. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Good! That is, if you were hearing good things, we'd have some problems. Livvy Ahtynwyb grins. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Luckily for you, there's no better place to be for fighting Garleans than the Riskbreakers. Crimson Bull: Absolutely. Hinako Daigo: It is nice to have you for the cause, regardless of where you're from. Golmore or otherwise. Suraja Solveig: Just hopin' I can bring somethin' to th'team! Hinako Daigo smiles weakly at Suraja Solveig. Suraja Solveig: Ah. Okay... ever heard of Th'First? I hear that's what y'call it here.. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Yeah! I've been away with the fae for a bit myself. Suraja Solveig: T'keep it short? From there. Pretty sure m'real bodies still there because... well, I've been havin' dreams 'bout that.. Suraja Solveig takes a minute to absorb her owns words. Definitely felt like she was talking crazy sometimes. Hinako Daigo: I wasn't going to press, but I knew something about your qi was different the moment I arrived. Suraja Solveig: Qi... Is that like th'Mist? Suraja Solveig: What was it? Aether, right? Suraja Solveig shrugs at Crimson Bull. Hinako Daigo: The Mist... Yes! Just so. Or aether, however you see fit to deem it. Suraja Solveig: Don't mean t'derail the conversation.. Sorry. Crimson Bull: Best y'explain than people get suspicious, y'know? Suraja Solveig: Though, Hina, was it? Maybe y'can help me figure some things out sometime... Suraja Solveig nods to Crimson Bull. Crimson Bull places a hand to his chin. Crimson Bull: So what's the plan? Head back out, sniff the situation? Hinako Daigo nods. Hinako Daigo: Certainly. We can discuss later as to not draw away from the matter at hand. The more we can ascertain, the better. The less need to jump in blind like before, the better. Livvy Ahtynwyb nods. Livvy Ahtynwyb: I guess with that said... where do you all think you want to go? Feels like Rabanastre and Bozja both have something to offer. And have their own risks. Crimson Bull: If the IVth Legion is goin' to Bozja, then that's where I wanna be. Suraja Solveig: Since... I don't know much about this, what d'ya think I should do? Livvy Ahtynwyb: Well... if you want to learn more about the Empire, and how to fight them... you can't go wrong with learning from Ashe. Crimson Bull nods in agreement. Crimson Bull: Boss is a great leader, second-to-none. If y'wanted to prove anythin' prove it to her. Suraja Solveig: I'm open t'anythin' really. Yer all pretty skilled. Feel like I can't go wrong. Suraja Solveig nods to Crimson Bull. Crimson Bull: Then that choice is all yours. Suraja Solveig: Guess I'll have t'talk t'Ashe then! Livvy Ahtynwyb: What about you, Lif? First Riskbreaker mission, what are you feeling? Lif Silverlode gazes upon you in deep reflection. Lif Silverlode: I am deeply curious about what is going on in Bozja, but I am unsure of how suited I am for that type of reconnaissance mission. I think Dalmasca might be better suited to my skillset. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Yeah, that sounds about right. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Hey. At least we won't be stuck twenty thousand fulms in the air with a bunch of theater people. Suraja Solveig fails to understand you. Crimson Bull: They were nice enough people! If anythin' we were the pain in the ass. Crimson Bull bursts out laughing. Suraja Solveig: Theater people? Hinako Daigo scoffs at Crimson Bull. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Garlean theater people. Lif Silverlode: That sounds like an interesting story. Suraja Solveig squints. Lif Silverlode: Wait. The Prima Vista? Livvy Ahtynwyb: Yeah! Lif Silverlode: I had no idea they were still in operation... Crimson Bull: I do owe them a proper apology for makin' them accessories to murder...or somethin' like that... Bull rubs his neck sheepishly. Suraja Solveig: Eh..? Suraja Solveig makes a straight face at Crimson Bull. Crimson Bull: Remember how I told you about the stone? Yeah. Suraja Solveig: Yeah, when you turned into a rock? Suraja Solveig stifles a chuckle as best she can. Crimson Bull rolls his eyes. Crimson Bull: Yes, when I turned into a rock. Suraja Solveig bursts out laughing. Livvy Ahtynwyb: I mean, you are already about as solid as a rock. Let's be real here. Hinako Daigo: I'm sorry, turned *into* a rock? Crimson Bull: That's what I said! Suraja Solveig: Sorry, sorry... Lif Silverlode suddenly tries to remember if the Prima Vista and her crew are well known among Eorzeans. Crimson Bull: I guess bein' possessed by a stone means you become it... Crimson Bull shrugs. Suraja Solveig: But I get what yer sayin'. The thing in th'stone made y'really strong and aggressive, yeah? Hinako Daigo: Ah! Hinako let out a soft chuckle. I see... Crimson Bull: That's...one way to put it, yeah. he sighs, Didn't feel great, I can tell ya that... Crimson Bull: Certainly didn't help my relationship with Fawn, that's for sure... Hinako Daigo: Hn... Suraja Solveig consoles Crimson Bull. Suraja Solveig: Remember! Yer gettin' married once this is all over! Hinako Daigo is taken aback by Crimson Bull. Livvy Ahtynwyb is shocked! Crimson Bull reaches out. Crimson Bull: Shhhh! I wasn't gonna tell EVERYONE quite yet! Shoot... Livvy Ahtynwyb: YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED?! Suraja Solveig: Y-You didn't tell me it was...! Livvy Ahtynwyb screams. Livvy Ahtynwyb: OH MY GODS!!! Crimson Bull rubs the back of his neck. Crimson Bull: S...surprise? Hinako Daigo: Oh...! Well, congratulations...! Crimson Bull: Once all of this is settled... everyone's invited. Suraja Solveig: Why didn't ya tell me? Now I feel all bad! Suraja Solveig is frustrated. Crimson Bull: I didn't have a chance to! Shoot... Livvy Ahtynwyb: It's okay! I'm fucking off to Valnain soon. Who am I gonna tell? Livvy Ahtynwyb will absolutely tell Hrjt Brotin. Suraja Solveig: Mm, well, I'm still sorry! But! We're all happy for ya, and I think everyone here loves ya very much, so.. Crimson Bull: I'm sure you'll find someone... Crimson Bull rolls his eyes. Crimson Bull: Just...don't...don't tell the Boss, yeah? I can do it myself. Suraja Solveig: Now that I know it's a secret I'm not sayin' a word. Crimson Bull: I wasn't meanin' it to be a secret but... there's probably a better time to tell everyone. Crimson Bull shrugs. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Yeah. Yeah, I feel you. Livvy Ahtynwyb gets up off her stool, still grinning a bit. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Right! I'll leave you all to it. If I don't see you all before you ship out, then best of luck. Definitely don't break a leg. Lif Silverlode: Oh! Before we part- Crimson Bull: Likewise! he gives Livvy Ahtynwyb a playful shove. Suraja Solveig: I'll make sure t'talk to Ashelia and work out what we're doin' with me. Crimson Bull nods to Suraja Solveig. Crimson Bull: Good idea. Lif Silverlode: I'm not sure who is leading things over here, but I might have an idea for getting us over to Othard without Garlemald catching on. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Oooh! I'd say, uh... Suraja Solveig: Nice meetin' you two. I'll be sure t'talk with ya in the future, Hinako. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Maybe talk to Rosenheim? Sounds like he's the one dialed in to all the plans. Suraja Solveig bids farewell. Livvy Ahtynwyb: See ya, Suraja! Crimson Bull bids farewell to Suraja Solveig. Lif Silverlode's face drops. Lif Silverlode: Ah. Right. I'll make sure he knows. Hinako Daigo performs an Eastern bow before Suraja Solveig. Livvy Ahtynwyb: Alright! Catch you all later! Crimson Bull: Don't have too much fun! Livvy Ahtynwyb: Hey, you neither! Livvy Ahtynwyb puts on a taunting grin.

The Wine Cellars of Lea Monde
Ashelia Riot does not explain as she readies the team for the Lea Monde mission why her hair is now several ilms longer. Nor does she explain why she and Malla seem to be ill at ease with one another. Malla does, however, fly the team via the shuttle to their destination.
Tumblr media
Seeing as he's shown up with an extra pair of large horns after an extended absence with no offered explanation, Tai is not prone to questioning such things.
Malla explains along the way that the city of Lea Monde lies well to the south of Dalmasca, through vast tracts of the Golmore Jungle. Fortunately, Malla knows from prior experience of a clearing through which an aircraft might land, and she pilots you to that area with little difficulty. Still, the city itself has been almost entirely transformed into a Garlean outpost. It is the capital of Dalmasca Inferior - the Garleans' "lesser" hold upon the region. Hinako’s book has this to say: “Lea Monde is an old town, with a history of over two thousand years. Its walls have seen many battles - they are stronger than the mightiest forts of Dalmasca, and as the sun wheels through the sky, the beauty of their shifting colors surpasses that of any palace.” Malla drops the party in the clearing, and soon you see the walls for yourself, even from a distance. Most of all, you see the Great Cathedral, towering above the skyline. Nearby, though you cannot see it from where you stand, is the sea.
Hinako Daigo would not show it but she is ill at ease, and before stepping off to Lea Monde she is heard and seen in intonation in her tongue. "...O kami of the four winds, I humbly request you do usher your guidance and bestow upon me and my own your divine guidance and graces. [Omamori]" Malla Velius departs - and she takes Priscilla's anxious look in stride. Nivelth Ajuyn looks calm, perhaps a tad more so than she should be, listening to the prayer silently. At her feet, an emerald carbuncle twines through her legs like an anxious cat. Akhutai Urit also looks calm. In fact, one could say he looks toward the Cathedral with veritable disinterest. Ashelia Riot: "Shall some of us survey ahead?" Though she herself proposed this mission, she does not entirely know what exactly they will be looking for in the city. Nivelth Ajuyn: "Do we know what we're looking for? Or is this going to be a bit like our survey to Rabanastre?" Ashelia Riot: "We're looking for... answers. I presume to do with the auracite. But yes - I imagine we'll gather as many clues as we can in a reasonable amount of time." Eindride Stokys looks concerned at mention of the survey being similar to Rabanastre and clutches his staff. Please no. Akhutai Urit moves just a bit ahead of the group without a word, eyes towards their destination. He looks around the area before give a slight shrug and moving forward a few more steps. Perhaps part of him manages to think that moving too far away from the group would be a bad idea, so he pauses. Hinako Daigo: "...Nothing for it but to move forward, then. I will go on ahead, as well" she responds, not just because she figures she will be able to pick up on necessary presence, but that Akhutai's demeanor has been leaving her somewhat guarded since the Prima Vista incident. || The upper reaches of the city appear to be swarming with Garleans. Hinako Daigo furrows her brow. Priscilla Scaevola has been uncharacteristically silent on the moments leading to this.  "I've got an idea." Ashelia Riot: "Yes?" Nivelth Ajuyn looks up at the city, frowning. "What's your idea, Pris?" Priscilla Scaevola: "They've must be aware the Prima Vista just swooped by.  I can probably stroll through there-" She gestures to the upper city. "- mostly unnoticed and see what information can I find." Nivelth Ajuyn wonders at the wisdom of that. Isn't Priscilla still wanted? Ashelia Riot: "While the rest of us remain hidden?" Ashelia Riot isn't entirely certain she likes the idea of Priscilla Scaevola going on her own. She suspects a certain romantic fool of a Garlean will murder her upon her return to the Sandsea. Nivelth Ajuyn: "Do you need one of us to pose as your servant or retainer? So you're not going alone?" Priscilla Scaevola shrugs. "It's an idea." She looks at Erindride. "He can probably blend with me. Looks like boyfriend material." Ashelia Riot: "..." Eindride Stokys eyes widen. "Can't say I agree with that." Priscilla Scaevola she looks at Eindride again. "We are from the Prima Vista, looking for material for a new play." Ashelia Riot shakes her head. Ashelia Riot: "After what happened over Kugane, the Majestic may not be the most popular people in the Empire at the moment." Priscilla Scaevola: "..." Reconsiders. "Yeah, no, I am not going up there." Ashelia Riot: "...Although." Akhutai Urit gives a hum of thought, "Surely a storied place such as that has...multiple entrances.." Eindride Stokys: "That could be a possibility." Ashelia Riot nods to Akhutai Urit. Ashelia Riot: "Precisely. And if we end up needing to go above ground for any reason, Priscilla can be a scout." Priscilla Scaevola mocks an appalled gesture at Erindride. "How quickly he to chose the sewers over his new girlfriend." She nods at Ashelia when given a position. "Can do that." Ashelia Riot: "Oh, leave him be." Eindride Stokys: "It'd be far more likely for me to have a boyfriend in the future rather than a girlfriend," it's not the best time, but he chuckles a bit. Hinako Daigo gives a soft grin. Nivelth Ajuyn waves her fingers, and her carbuncle gives a soft yip. "He can accompany you, if needed. I can set him up with diversion and poison cloud spells if you need to make a quick getaway. But I'd like to stick to the idea of not being noticed." Ashelia Riot: "As would I." Akhutai Urit sets his hands on the hilt of his sword with an almost disappointed expression but says nothing. Priscilla Scaevola: "I can be subtle. And got a few tricks up my sleeve if things go sour." Nivelth Ajuyn nods to Priscilla Scaevola. Ashelia Riot: "Now, then..." Ashelia Riot searches the vicinity, walking around for any potential underground openings. Ashelia Riot is, more than anything, getting impatient; she /knows/ something's there, but she cannot find it. Hinako Daigo: "Hmm..." Akhutai Urit also begins to search. though he seems..less inclined, for whatever reason. Hinako Daigo kneels respectfully. Hinako Daigo: "..." Hinako Daigo shrugs. Ashelia Riot: "It has to be here." By now she sounds frustrated, annoyed; she's close to drawing her stone from her pocket. Nivelth Ajuyn: "What are you looking for? What do you expect to find?" Akhutai Urit just...stares...in a direction. He sighs. "...Ashe." If he catches her attention, he just vaguely gestures. Ashelia Riot: "A path. Anything. I-" Ashelia Riot then catches sight of where Tai is looking. Ashelia Riot: "...That.” "That" is what appears to be a cellar door - almost identical to the one her father locked behind her during their last moments together before Ala Mhigo fell. The sight makes her heart lurch. Hinako Daigo watches Ashelia intently... Eindride Stokys: "I'd say that's our way in." Ashelia Riot steps forward and gives the door a heave. Its hinges creak as the old wood resists, but it opens with little effort. Ashelia Riot: "I'll take the rear." Akhutai Urit: "A cellar. How typical." Assuming no one else does it first, he just...goes in past the old doors. Hinako Daigo takes a breath and follows Akhutai in. Nivelth Ajuyn sniffs the air, her nose wrinkling slightly, but follows. Ashelia Riot ushers the others in before her. For perhaps the first time in this entire expedition, Ashe steps into the cool, darkened underground hall and feels something resembling peace. It reminds her of Ala Mhigo’s Undercity: though she’s never been in this place, though she does not know the way forward, the feeling of being so far under the earth is a comfortingly familiar sensation. Priscilla Scaevola closes her eyes briefly before entering. "Here we go..." || Until the ground trembles beneath the party’s feet. Akhutai Urit: "Exciting." Hinako Daigo looks down at the ground. "...?" Ashelia Riot: "Is everyone alright?" Priscilla Scaevola gaze travels from one of his companions to the next. Half expecting they caused it. "This bodes i'll. Which might mean we are heading the right way..." Nivelth Ajuyn distributes her weight easy enough, frowning slightly. She touches the stone in her pocket. Akhutai Urit: "I was beginning to worry this was going to be easy," he begins to smirk. Eindride Stokys looks a little shaken, but is otherwise fine. He nods to Ashelia. Hinako Daigo nods. "Yes, and I'm inclined to agree with Miss Priscilla." || The party have ended up in a cellar - a wine cellar, one of great renown throughout all of Hydaelyn. Priscilla Scaevola wants to steal. Hinako Daigo looks around. Akhutai Urit doesn't much care for wine and begins looking around. Eindride Stokys: "There's something odd about this place...", he says, staring at the walls. || It's all wine. Akhutai Urit is basically going to just wander off at this point until he finds something of note at all unless someone stops him. || Wine is boring. Peering more deeply and placing a hand flat onto the wall, Eindride’s odd feeling finally starts to make sense. "There's definitely been some Black magicks used in here." Priscilla Scaevola places her attention at the floor. If there is something below she expected to find a latch or looks under rugs if any. Nivelth Ajuyn looks around, while her carbu sniffs at the wines. She taps her finger against one of the barrels, and frowns. "... poison. I think some of these are poisoned." || There are no rugs; the floor seems ordinary. Ashelia Riot: "Poison?" Nivelth Ajuyn looks ... conflicted. "I ... don't know why, but it feels poisoned." Ashelia Riot thinks of how Nivelth Ajuyn poisoned a Garlean to death within seconds. Hinako Daigo saunters and studies every ilm she passes "Black magic, poison... all things considered, though, it is still a wine cellar. Assuredly quite an old and grand one, so... our path is not like to end here..." The dull thud of metal on wood can be heard down the way as Tai smacks his sword into a wine barrel. Nivelth Ajuyn investigates the barrel for a moment, and pulls it out slightly. In the brim of the wood, there's a hole in it, and what looks like a rat's corpse. The creature clearly died while trying to burrow into the wine, resulting in the poisoning of it. Ashelia Riot wrinkles her nose but offers no other sign of disgust. Nivelth Ajuyn: "Well. That's not useful." Priscilla Scaevola eyes widen at the revelation. "That's... not good..." Ashelia Riot: "Let's keep moving." Hinako Daigo stops for a moment to look back. She would rather not ask why poison the wine, for she can presume plenty. Hinako Daigo continues. Eindride Stokys stares at the rat's corpse. "We should exercise caution around these barrels in the very least..." Tai definitely notices that there are burn marks close to some of the walls. There are also scattered bottles, and discarded corks. People have been living here, though perhaps not recently. Akhutai Urit nudges an empty bottle with the tip of his sword. "We missed a party." Nivelth Ajuyn walks forward to catch up to Tai, tail flicking in agitation. Priscilla Scaevola: "It’s not a party until we get there. Are there any notes or belongings?" || There is a black mage's staff, made from a metal that you can't entirely seem to identify; whatever it is, it's beautifully wrought and contains a sphere of blown glass at its apex. Akhutai Urit: "I feel anyone with more expertise with magical focuses than I should take a look at that," Tai says, remarking on the staff. Priscilla Scaevola doesnt touch a thing. Eindride Stokys: "I can take a look...", he says a bit hesitantly. He's not sure if he even wants to touch it himself, in all honesty. Nivelth Ajuyn: "I can look it over," she offers. She doesn't sound concerned. Akhutai Urit: "Well, you two can have at it, I suppose." Eindride Stokys can feel the aether pulsing from the staff. "Whoever owned this, they were very experienced in magicks in the very least..." || The earth rumbles again, this time sending a shower of pebbles over the party's heads. Nivelth Ajuyn looks it over in Eindride's hands, but she gets nothing from it. "It... seems useless to me--what was that." Hinako Daigo observes the staff before looking up at the ceiling. "What on..." Akhutai Urit looks up at the ceiling as everything shakes again. He clicks his tongue. Ashelia Riot: "We need to hurry." Ashelia Riot has seen how cave-ins happen in the Undercity. Priscilla Scaevola nods. Nivelth Ajuyn scooches closer to Tai, her tail flicking rapidly. Eindride Stokys: "...Perhaps we'll get crushed before any of these odd findings can do any harm to us," despite the grim nature of the sentence he sounds rather cheery. Akhutai Urit smirks, "Death won't come so easily. I think time will be on our side, at least for a little while." He glances down at Nive before moving forward, but this time stopping before he gets too far ahead of the group and glances back. "Shall we keep moving?" His eyes flick to the staff, "Should we keep that or leave it behind?" Priscilla Scaevola: "Bring it, it might have an use down the road." That same strange expression comes over Ashelia Riot's face at Akhutai Urit's words, and she nods. Ashelia Riot: "Time enough with you at our side, my old friend." Akhutai Urit looks to Ashelia and his eyes Flash before he flashes a grin, "Of course." Hinako Daigo places a hand above her chest. "Right... Well, we are only building more questions than answers at the moment. Let alone a way through. And these tremors..." Eindride Stokys: "I can carry the staff along with, if need be," while he's a bit intimidated by the thing, he can't help but have his interest piqued by the staff at this point. Ashelia Riot nods to Eindride Stokys. Ashelia Riot: "By all means." Nivelth Ajuyn looks over at him, frowning at the staff, but sticks close to Tai as the group starts to move a bit. Ashelia Riot takes point for the next section, which is long and winding and unfinished. She takes them through what can only be the deepest infrastructure of the city, down to the fabled ramparts themselves - and the path leads them all further underground. Hinako Daigo remains silent, focused, trying to get a read on her environs as they get deeper and deeper. Akhutai Urit: "These people surely loved their underground infrastructures.." Nivelth Ajuyn: "You know, the last time Tai and I went underground, it didn't exactly end well," she mutters into the air, giving a shudder. "Can't wait to see how this one turns out." Akhutai Urit: "As long as our secrets and fears don't get turned against us this time." Priscilla Scaevola: "Last time I went undeground with Tai it didnt exactly end well either. " She grins. Akhutai Urit: "I believe we can conclude, then, that if something goes wrong, it is my fault." Nivelth Ajuyn: "Only if it's underground. I think you're in the clear otherwise." Nivelth Ajuyn beams with delight at Akhutai Urit. Akhutai Urit smirks. || At the end of the tunnel lies a pile of fabrics - Dalmascan civilian clothes. They aren't laid out in place of where someone died; they're thrown in a heap on the ground. Priscilla Scaevola pokes the pile of clothes with the barrel of her gun. || Some rats skitter out from inside the pile. Priscilla Scaevola: "Agh!" Hinako Daigo: "Abandoned garments? And they have been here for some time as well." Eindride Stokys: "Strange." Akhutai Urit: "Well then." Tai looks around, "...I can only think of grim circumstances." Hinako Daigo: "I have a bad feeling ... Signs of life underground, black magic, raiments cast aside..." Hinako Daigo: "Poisoned wine..." Priscilla Scaevola just shakes her head. She likes the fieldtrip less and less. Akhutai Urit: "If we continue much further, I'm nearly positive we'll find a body or two." Akhutai Urit: "Or what's left of one." Hinako Daigo: "Someone's endgame, whatever that may have been. Or may be." || As the party proceeds, the sense of wrongness further permeates their surroundings - especially for Eindride Stokys. However, if possible, the surroundings grow somewhat more refined - elegant. Akhutai Urit pulls his lips back into something reminiscent of a snarl and the grip on his sword tightens. He doesn't say anything, just tenses up in preparation for...something. Hinako Daigo is deep in thought.

Shokugeki no Soma Birthday Calendar
This is a schedule of the birthdays of some of the most important Shokugeki no Soma characters. The dates are based on the information of the manga and the fanbook.
In regards of birth years we actually have to options here (thanks to @polar-stars​, who pointed this out). Either the manga starts in 2012 or in 2017.
Tumblr media
The first two images show the research data, Azami had stolen. It is dated 2012 (I’m sorry, the English manga seems to have not shown the year. But the official german tranlation does - chapter 184 or Season 3 Episode 17). Then there is a magazine which was shown during the Blue Arc. It states 2018, when Yukihira and Erina are in their second year. Though I don’t know the exact chapter...
So either we have a time paradox between the first and the second year or both options work. :)
Since the manga was published in 2012 for the first time I use this option. However, both years are completely valid. That’s why I updated the birth years below. I will not update the charts in the near future though. I updated them.
92nd Generation
May 4, 1996 (2001) - Mito Ikumi
June 17, 1996 (2001) - Sakaki Ryouko

November 6, 1996 (2001) - Yukihira Soma
November 25, 1996 (2001) - Marui Zenji
December 19, 1996 (2001) - Tadokoro Megumi
December 26, 1996 (2001) - Mimasaka Subaru

February 7, 1997 (2002) - Aoki Daigo
February 19, 1997 (2002) - Satou Shouji
March 23, 1997 (2002) - Nakiri Erina
90th & 91st Generation
April 2, 1994 (1999) - Tsukasa Eishi
July 5, 1994 (1999) - Megishima Tousuke

September 26, 1995 (2000) - Eizan Etsuya
January 6, 1996 (2001) - Kinokuni Nene
Other
March 31, 1927 (1932) - Nakiri Senzaemon
April 3, 1973 (1978) - Doujima Gin (69th generation)
August 16, 1973 (1978) - Yukihira/Saiba Jouichirou (69th generation)

May 10, 1975 (1980) - Nakamura/Nakiri Azami (71st generation)
March 3, 1978 (1983) - Shiomi Jun (73rd generation)
April 20, 1983 (1988) - Shinomiya Kojirou (79th generation)
September 9, 1984 (1989) - Inui Hinako (80th generation)
August 2, 1993 (1998) - Saiba/Nakiri Asahi
Note: In Japan schoolyear starts on April 1st. So children born between April 1st and March 31st will be in the same grade.
@minyoustar​: See note above. This should answer your question.
Random Birthday facts:
Isshiki’s and Nikumi’s birthdays are during the Golden Week (a week with many public holidays). Nikumi’s birthday is actually on Greenery Day
Hayama’s birthday is on Tanabata
Takumi’s and Isami’s birthday is on Tōrō nagashi, the floating lantern festival
With the exception of Yukihira all known First Seats of the Elite Ten were born in April
Alice is 2 months older than Erina. Their birthdays are on the same day of month but in different months
4 characters of the 92nd celebrate their brithday on a 19th of a month
Takumi, Isami, Hayama and (most likely) Kurokiba were not born in Japan. I’m not sure about Alice though ...
Azami was 18 when his son Asahi was born. This would make him an underage parent in Japan, since the age of majaority is 20. (Up until April 2022, then it will be set to 18)

My Ai Yazawa Reccomendation List
This is a list that I’ve actually been thinking about for a while now (like... years lmao). Basically just a few of my personal recommendations of series (only manga and webtoons this time around but I have a couple tv shows and anime that I also might rec in a second list if people like this one...) that people like me that are missing Yazawa’s work might enjoy.  The bulk of this list is for NANA, because that is her unfinished work, but I’ve got quite a few recs for her other series.
I don’t love all the series on this list (or even like tbh), but I can see where someone who likes a certain aspect of Yazawa’s work might enjoy the series more than me.   I didn’t include trigger warnings because it’s been a number of years since I read some of these series (and some I never finished) but feel free to ask me and I’ll do my best.
Obligatory recommendation that if you enjoy any of Yazawa’s series, you should give any of her series a try.  I think all of the series that  I’ve read by her are masterpieces in their own right and if you’re missing NANA (or any of her other works) you should definitely read the rest of her work because many of my own favorite aspects of Yazawa’s works are present in all of her work - like female friendship and continuous story lines (rather than episodic).
Feel free to add on with your owns recs... And tell me if you read any of these series!
-
If you like the past/future mechanic of NANA with young adult characters and enjoy unveiling the mystery in Kagen no Tsuki  then give Piece by Ashihara Hinako a try.  The MC and her best friend have a good passing resemblance to Nana and Hachi, if Hachi were chubby but they have more than appearance in common with NANA’s leading ladies...  To say any more would be spoilers!  This series also marries some of the messy melodrama of RL with realism like NANA.
Tumblr media
Summary: One day, Mizuho, a university student, receives news that her classmate in high school, Origuchi Haruka, passed away. Mizuho doesn't remember being best friends with Origuchi, but apparently, Origuchi told her mother that Mizuho was her best friend. And now, her mother wants Mizuho to help her find the boy Origuchi dated during high school. Mizuho told Origuchi's mother that Origuchi was a very plain girl, and she was never seen with a guy, but her mother told Mizuho that Origuchi got pregnant and had an abortion when she was in high school. Mizuho was shocked, but she still starts asking her other classmates in high school and following the traces Origuchi left behind.
Status: Complete
-
If you liked Paradise Kiss for the portrayal of a bunch of odd-balls coming together to do something creative together and inspiring Yukari with their passion OR for Yukari’s struggle with her mother academic expectations then you might enjoy the webtoon Spirit Fingers by Han Kyoung Chal!
Tumblr media
Summary:  What do you do if you're going on 18, totally awkward and lacking in self- confidence? You could just sit in your room all day and all night and study and wonder why you never get asked out…OR, if you’re Amy Song you could join up with the Spirit Fingers – the strangest, hippest, coolest (yet most welcoming) art club ever. But as Amy is about to learn, discovering your TRUE colors is about more than just painting.
Status: Complete, still being translated.  Best part is you can start reading the series completely LEGALLY here.  They changed the character’s first names to more western ones and it’s a bit behind the unofficial translations but I still recommend reading it legally.
-
If you liked NANA because you liked how the Nanas had the same name and had all these other similarities, meeting under fateful circumstances but also wish they’d date then give Lonely Wolf, Lonely Sheep a try by Fuka Mizutani!
Tumblr media
Summary:   Two women with the same name happens to meet each other when they're at the same hospital for the same injury. They want to become closer, but both must overcome their insecurities and self-loathing first.
Status: Complete
-
If you like the past/future telling aspect of NANA with a large, fully-fleshed cast of characters who are all living their life check out Cheese in the Trap by Soonkki.  Sul is a very strong, no- nonsense MC but with plenty of charm with great friends.  Like NANA it’s easy to hate some of the more flawed characters but at the end of the day even the antagonists have complex reasons for being the way they are and aren’t just living to be an opposing force.
Tumblr media
Summary:  Seol Hong is a hard-working student, who has returned to college after a long break. Jung Yu is a senior at the college known as Mr. Perfect. Seol feels like her life took a turn for the worse since she got involved with Jung. Is Jung intentionally turning Seol's life?
Status:  Ongoing... I think?  You can read the webtoon legally [here] and the translations are being posted weekly still at least.
-
Do you like younger looking characters like Mikako and Miwako?  Do you like playboys like George as a male lead but wish he were a bit more earnest?  Did you like how Akira and Midori took their time getting to know and understand each other by the end of the series?  Do you just like how Yazawa emphasizes friendship in her work?  Here’s Lovely Everywhere by Ke Li for you.
Tumblr media
Summary: Tong Danwei is a high school freshman with romantic dreams about the boy she is fated to meet. While on the way home from picking up groceries, she runs into a pretty boy, and that’s where our story begins. Will she find love in high school? And more importantly, will any boy be able to overlook the fact that although she is in high school, she still looks like an elementary student?? Follow along on Tong Danwei’s adventure of love and high school angst, with plenty of comedy thrown in to the mix.
Status: Complete  
-
If you like the supernatural mystery aspect of Kagen no Tsuki starring younger characters with mysteriously dead-but-not-dead characters, then Route 225 might by a good series to try.  It’s by Shimura Takako & Fujino Chiya (Original Story).  You might know Shimura Takako from her other series like Wandering Son and Sweet Blue Flower, so you know she is great portraying emotional realism like Yazawa.
Tumblr media
Summary: 14-year-old Eriko finds herself left in charge of her younger brother Daigo when their parents suddenly disappear one warm summer evening. Trapped in a world that is very much like their own save for the lack of their parents, Eriko and Daigo find themselves desperate for the return of the worrywart mother and apathetic father they never thought they'd miss so badly...
Status: Complete  
-
If you liked NANA because you liked reading about a pair of women who are very different and yet are very good friends to the point where their friendship is more important to them than romantic relationships (even if they struggle to properly communicate this to each other) then try the short series Tomodachi no Hanashi by Kawahara Kazune (Story) and Yamakawa Aiji (Art).
Tumblr media
Summary:  Eiko is something like a plain Jane and a doormat, while her best friend Moe is a head-turning beauty. Despite their differences, their friendship is as strong as ever.    Guys are always asking Moe out, but her answer is inevitable, "only if you promise to put Eiko before me."
Status: Complete 
-
Did you like how Hachi from NANA kept losing her jobs?  And had no luck in love?  Do you prefer to read about young adult characters?  Even though we never talk about how funny Yazawa’s work is... was that something you really liked about her work? Dame na Watashi ni Koishite Kudasai by Nakahara Aya!  Hachi and Shibata aren’t exactly alike but they are both fun to read and get into the mindset of in a similar way.
Tumblr media
Summary:   The unemployed Shibata Michiko is betting everything she has on her romance with a younger man—literally. In order to keep him happy, she deprives herself of the things she wants and buys him expensive clothing and accessories. Since she's flat out broke, she needs to find a job before she starves to death and loses her young love interest. However, Michiko discovers that the boy was never interested in her romantically. Depressed at being dumped and after a series of unsuccessful interviews, she bumps into Kurosawa—an intimidating former boss she used to dislike.
Status: Complete, with a spin-off
-
If you’re interested in exploring Mikako’s feelings from Gokingo Monogatari when she dropped out of school then Cat Street might interest you.  Both MCs find themselves a group of friends and attend alternative high schools - though while Mikako’s is an art’s school, in Cat Street is more of a free school that seems to specialize in drop-outs and the like.
Tumblr media
Summary:  The story centers around Keito Aoyama, a former famous child actress. Due to a childhood incident, she retired from her career early and withdrew from normal society. Now 16, she passes her days in boredom and without purpose. But one day she runs into a stranger who takes her to El Liston--a free school for high school students like herself, who don't have a place where they belong. Though hesitant at first, Keito decides to enter El Liston and subsequently, she begins a new stage in her life. With the help of her only remaining childhood friend, Taiyou, and her new classmates Rei, Momiji, and Kouichi, Keito slowly finds the courage to open up to others and to accept their support. Will Keito return to acting? Will she find true friends? Love?
Status: Complete
-
If you want a series like NANA that is about adult women who are good friends and roommates as they balance their life with their career, love-lives, and friendship with each other try Tokyo Alice by Toriko Chiya.  Alternatively, if you were wondering what Hachi might look like if you reversed her obsession with love with her love of shopping... you’ve got Tokyo Alice’s MC (lol)
Tumblr media
Summary:   Fu Arisugawa is a little worried there might be something wrong with her. She loves shopping above all else, using her money to buy designer and brand-name items to the exclusion of all else. But while her friends also enjoy shopping, they're all also on the hunt for love in one way or another – something that Fu finds she just isn't all that interested in. When her boss starts showing interest in her, will Fu figure it out? Or is she going to keep going in her shopping wonderland?
Status: Complete, also has a recent drama that you can watch with Prime TV!
-
If what interested you most about NANA was it’s portrayal of the music industry of a new band and wanted more of that then try Beck by Sakuishi Harold.  Beck, like NANA, has an anime that while it doesn’t cover the entire series is worth watching or even having the soundtrack on as you read the series.
Tumblr media
Summary:  Fourteen-year-old Yukio "Koyuki" Tanaka is a dispirited young boy with no goals in life. However, this all changes when Koyuki saves a strange-looking dog named Beck from being harassed by a group of local kids. The dog's owner, 16-year-old Ryuusuke "Ray" Minami, is an emerging guitarist and the former member of a popular rock band. After Koyuki meets Ray again in a diner, the older boy leads him to his former band's meeting place and dazzles Koyuki with his amazing guitar skills. Slowly becoming interested in the glamour of western rock culture, Koyuki decides to start playing the guitar while helping Ray achieve his dream of leading the ultimate rock band. Together with Ray's younger sister Maho and a few other members, the two boys launch their career into the world of rock by forming a band called BECK. Beck follows the group's struggles and successes as they spread their fame across Japan.
Status: Complete
-
If you like how Yazawa writes her female “rival” characters as sympathetic and likable (even if not everything they do is likable) then you might enjoy Koda Momoko’s Heroine Shikkaku.  It’s about a girl who is shocked when she discovers she’s more like the bitchy villainess who bullies the sweet and pure heroine in shojo manga.
Tumblr media
Summary:  This could be any girl. Imagine being a heroine of a love story. Hatori also believed that one day she would get married to her childhood friend, Rita. But that's not how the world works! This is a hilarious comedy that honestly paints a painful unrequited love story of this young girl!
Status: Complete
-
If you want a short read like NANA, with two very different girls with the same name who tie their futures together then read the one-shot  Watashi to Watashi by Sahara Mizu.  Note that I’m only suggesting you read this specific one-shot, not any of the other one-shots contained in the collection this one is in... Actually I very much insist you don’t read the first one.  I highly recommend reading others’ of Sahara Mizu’s work if you enjoy this one because even if none of them are directly similar to any of Yazawa’s... the emotional complexity is.
Tumblr media
Summary:   Two girls with the same name; one beautiful and athletic, the other awkward and shunned. But who’s the lucky one?
Status: Complete 
-
If you like a series having 2 characters named Nana in NANA (even if their relationship with each other is... entirely different) and enjoy the format of Nana and Hachi continuing to address each other in inner monologues in the future where they haven’t seen each other for years or you just like messy, realistic relationships try We Were There by Obata Yuuki.
Tumblr media
Summary:  The start of high school life. To the girls, that also meant the start of their love lives. For brand new first year student, Takahashi Nanami (Nana for short), it was no different... She happens to end up in the same class as the incredibly popular Yano Motoharu, who rumors say that two thirds of all the girls are guaranteed to fall in love with. But will that hold true for Nana, who says that if she had to choose between like or dislike, she'd say she dislikes him!?
Status: Complete
-
What was your favorite thing about Tenshi Nanka Ja Nai?  Was it Akira struggling with his feelings for someone that married into his family?  Was it Midori and Mamirin’s friendship?  Try Omoi, Omoware, Furi, Furare by Sakisaka Io.  (Strobe Edge also by Sakisaka might also work for you).
Tumblr media
Summary:  The story centers around Yuna and Akari who have two very different views of love: Yuna is someone who sees love as a dream and Akari is someone who is very realistic about her romance choices. Meanwhile, there are two boys, Kazuomi and Rio, who also have different views of love: Kazuomi's an airhead and doesn't understand the concept of love, while Rio grabs the opportunity when confessed to as long as the girl looks cute.
Status: Complete, being translated
-
If you just like Yazawa’s work and want to read works by a close friend of hers...  Yoshizumi Wataru!  You might know her best from Marmalade Boy, but she also worked on quite a few josei works about young adults... Like Cappuccino (if you like moving on from a first serious relationship as we saw with Hachi and Shouji), but also Cherish and Spicy Pink.
Tumblr media
-
That’s all I got for now... But again... Let me know if you read any of these! Whether or not at my suggestion lol. And add on too! I’ve read or at least tried all of these myself so now I’m the one in need of recs lol.

(Lea’s) Shokugeki Next Gen - Masterpost Version 2
I’m bored and achieved nothing today, I need to do at least one productive thing
A quick run-down of my Next Gen kids, because why not? If anyone asks me about them I can point to it ;w; It won’t be the most informative post ever but it’s really just a simple introduction. In case it sparks your interest, feel free to inquire about these kids.
I also have a tag on my blog that’s dedicated to them -> https://polar-stars.tumblr.com/tagged/Shokugeki-no-Kimiko-Stuffz
As well as an entire fanfic, which is still in the starters (It will be long. Be very afraid honestly, because I, for the most part, have no idea what I am doing) -> https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11912834/1/Shokugeki-no-Kimiko
Also: There might be some unusual ships in here. I’m sorry if your fave ship doesn’t happen to be included. It really comes down to personal preference ovo;; But please be respecting! I am as well. 
Anyways, let’s get into this:
115th Generation (the Prime-Focus)
