[ SHUUKAI WARD ]

In Shuukai Ward, harsh curfews and martial law was in effect, for the people here were restless from having to meet the daily demands that the Sword Continent called. A shame, given how the place must have looked before the Imperial's took over, before Scheiracht and the Emperor made changes here. Shuukai was a word that meant "gathering". It must had been a place of happiness in the past.
In the past.
This beaten down place could only be described as a vast and sprawling slum, which must have acted as the main center for housing the working populace in Yongesia. This large cityscape. It had so many methods of transport, it's what made sense to me. Methods for ferrying the workers, mortal and Immortal alike, to the other wards and forts to supplicate for the Samurai.
"Keep moving scum." Is what I heard an Ashigaru on patrol say to me in his static voice as I moved through the rain that fell over Shuukai in the warmth of my concealing brown cloak I always kept.
I had searched around for signals of divinity... out of curiosity.
I found one here. But where? Where could it be?
