>"The Satsujinki clan was a group of mikos from outside Gensokyo that specialized in youkai extermination and did so with weapons. We also found that she likely made her blade via a ritual."
>"We also have talismans for sealing and purifying misfortune, protection from spiritual attacks, and spiritual strikes."
>The Tengu and Unity's faces morph into a cringe when hearing about the Clan, but Ame is partially confused.
>"Satsujinki? Sounds like a made-up name but I guess after all this I'll believe anything. Though their way of operating sounds alarmingly similar to how I was trained, albeit in my case it was just self-defence and protection rather than extermination."
>"And it explains the most recent report I just got. Speaking of: let's share that now."
>"After that talk you and that bird had with me, my troupe and I decided to do some cleaning in this area." Unity's face sours; "During this, a purple haze spread throughout the area starting from downstream the river, making the place inhospitable. My troops are suffering in there as we speak and I can only hope they return safely. I feel like I'm failing them as a leader out here.">"As for my involvement, well..." The Tengu begins.
"I recently published a newspaper and was immediately confronted by Reimu Hakurei for more information regarding it. Afterwards we decided to briefly work together: She would get important information and I would get frontlines on a story for once, a win-win! We started at Suzunaan for research but then I got distracted, Reimu went on without me, and here I am now being dragged by some humans and a fairy." She sounds disgruntled.
>"What she neglects to mention is that Reimu most likely came in this direction after they both noticed the haze. Do you Tengu obscure the truth by omission often? Or is this an off day for you?" Ame says in an annoyed tone.
>What's with this overall negative feeling?
>Could we use our talismans to keep the the misfortune from flowing down the river?
>Do we think that sealing talismans could be used to keep the misfortune from seeping into people?
>Yes, that would stop the Misfortune from advancing. But it would buy you more time at be, and wouldn't truly fix the issue from the sounds of it.
>As far as you know: Yes. You only read a book and a scroll so you're worried about your expertise on the topic. But trying it should assuage any worries.
