*Izanami sits in the middle of the foggy garden, there is a table with cups and tea*

-Reaper-

Hello

Jokerboi

*walks in*
Oh hey look, this place

Izanami-no-Okami

Greetings, wandering souls. Welcome to my garden, a place of peace for all of mankind.

Arlewinn

*Leaves Shibuya and ends up here*
...whelp. This certainly is confusing. Is this one of those "internal realities?"

-Reaper-

*sits down*

Izanami-no-Okami

This is a world not different from the Midnight Channel I created before, however, all hostilities are not allowed to exist here.

-Reaper-

*pours some tea*

Izanami-no-Okami

Please feel free to be at peace here, no harm can come to you as long as I reside in this place.

-Reaper-

Thank you

Arlewinn

I see.
*sits down*
I remember that Midnight Channel. It was connected to a realm very similar to this one.

Izanami-no-Okami

Yes, I made that realm as well.

Arlewinn

Right. Umm, forgive me of any potential offense, but I can't help but ask...seeing your role in some of the past distortions, might you have any idea as to what is causing the instability in the nexus around here right now?

Izanami-no-Okami

Instability? There are many other deities here as well. I have no need to cast such instability at the moment for I currently have a test...such instability would only interfere with those results.

-Reaper-

This tea is very good

Izanami-no-Okami

It is a special blend, made wit the plants I grow here in this garden.

-Reaper-

It's really good

Izanami-no-Okami

*Izanami continues drinking tea*

Bgammax

*walks in with a sigh*

Kinda got stonewalled by the embodiment of hope. Hopefully you can speak my language a bit better.

Rom_Dolos

*enters* Hello again.

Rom_Dolos

This place never gets old

Izanami-no-Okami

Stonewalled by the embodiment of hope? What is it that you have come to me for?

Izanami-no-Okami

@Rom_Dolos
Hello, once again, wandering soul.

Bgammax

*raises an eyebrow at Rom*
I'm sorry, you must be new here. At least, I.... Oh, wait. You were that guy who overheard something just outside of the hospital.

Rom_Dolos

*notices @Bgammax* Ah yes, i remember yiu from the hospital. I have actually been to this place before

Bgammax

Well, simply put Izanami, I... I've been given a chance. Something I never thought this place would give me. But, I don't know if I can do it. I mean, this place is pretty bad. Even with this

*Shiranui appears around him*
I don't know if I'll be able to do it.

Izanami-no-Okami

A chance? What is it that you desire to do exactly? If it is something that you have long craved for, shouldn't that be more important than anything else?

Bgammax

*sighs*
Well, its a chance that I thought was gone a long time ago. Consider it a second chance. I... I couldn't succeed last time. And, everything's so much worse now. I.. I don't know if I can do it, or even how.
*his eyes begin to tear up*

Izanami-no-Okami

Success is something you must reach out and grab for yourself, such, you should have faith in yourself if you want to succeed. If this is something you strongly desire then you will surely succeed in your task put before you.

Bgammax

T... The issue is, currently there are two ways to go through with this. On one, well, I suppose my goal is more likely to succeed, but I don't know what else will happen, a lot of people will get hurt.
In the other, I still can't guess what will come up, not here. So, since you can see much more than I. I wanted to know what you thought.

Izanami-no-Okami

It's difficult for me to tell you what the results will be without knowing what it is you wish to accomplish.

Bgammax

*sighs*
Simply put, I failed a while ago, failed to protect someone. Now there's someone similar walking around
*chuckles*
They even look similar. So, I was hoping this would be my chance to change things, maybe make up for some others. I.. I just don't know how.

Izanami-no-Okami

Failing once doesn't mean you won't succeed to protect someone next time. If this persona is important to you, then you must protect them at all costs if that is what you truly desire.

Bgammax

*looks away*
At all costs, eh. Screw the unimportant people and all. Thanks for your input. I just need to see something one last time, before I decide for real.
*walks off in the direction of Ene's shop*

Izanami-no-Okami

Perhaps I should have put that one into an eternal dream. But that isn't my way anymore.

AkariSuzumoto

Pretty foggy garden again...

I like it here.

Addalme

Oh, this place again.

Izanami-no-Okami

Oh, more wandering souls...
I was pondering so I didn't notice.

Addalme

Nah, I just arrived.

AkariSuzumoto

I'm always wandering.

I think I'm drawn to here.

Izanami-no-Okami

Fascinating...perhaps you have more potential than you thought?

Addalme

By the way, why this place exist?

Izanami-no-Okami

Would you believe I wanted some peace from the madness of the Nexus?

Miss_Kawakami

"This place.. it's pulling my attraction." she looks around the area.

Addalme

I believe you... I also need some of that peace...

Robin-K

*Walking in and sitting down within the area, Robin took a deep breath, appreciating the peaceful atmosphere*
It's..nice here..

Izanami-no-Okami

Feel free to enjoy yourselves in this place, it is made as a peaceful escape for all wandering souls.

Addalme

Thanks, I'll do it.

Robin-K

*Looking at Izanami, Robin lowered his guard, enough to be able to relax in this tranquil place*
It certainly is..
Thanks..I needed this..

Addalme

This place is nice to sleep.

Izanami-no-Okami

Let all your troubles be washed away by this place...

Kazuya

*He somehow manages to get here*

So...what is this place...?

Izanami-no-Okami

This is my garden. You are Kazuya correct?

Kazuya

Why yes, that's my name...and how do you know it?

Izanami-no-Okami

Word of your name spread fast among demons and the Nexus itself...I have also seen you within the desires of others.

Kazuya

Really? I never thought I would be that popular.

*He rubs the back of his head with a dumb smile*

Anyway...you are?

Izanami-no-Okami

I am Izanami, the Goddess of Death and Creation. I'm sure you've heard of at least one version of me.

Addalme

Death and creation...

Izanami-no-Okami

Yes, those are the things I rule over.

Kazuya

Well...I did hear about you from Mister Nakajima when I was 14.

It's a pleasure to meet you!

Addalme

By the way, why we end in this place? Does that mean what we are lost in the life? Maybe I'm overthinking...

Roxas-

*he walks in and looks around* Wow this place is gorgeous... Though the fog seems off, wonder if anyone is around?

Izanami-no-Okami

This place is a simple realm of peace, it is not too different from the TV world, for those are both my creations.

Roxas-

Realm of peace huh? Sounds pretty nice... Who are you anyways? Oh and I'm Roxas. Don't guess you've seen my other more foolish self?

Kazuya

So you created this place just for...for peace? Seriously?
You don't really sound all that bad to be honest.

Addalme

Tv world?? What you did there?

Izanami-no-Okami

I have other tests in the process of being accessed.

@Roxas-
You do strike a resemblance to a foolish child who was here. He spouted nonsense about heartless being here or something along those lines then he locked this world, whatever that means.

Roxas-

Heartless here? Doubtful at best if they were here he or I would have drawn them out. * He sighs* Sora means well but he's not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Izanami-no-Okami

I noticed...What about you? I hope you have more wisdom than he...

Roxas-

I try to at the least... Sora just does things without thinking about them, I respect his willingness to help others but he's too quick to just leap at everything.

Izanami-no-Okami

Oh, yes. You asked who I was...I am Izanami, Goddess of Death and Creation.

Roxas-

A goddess huh? Well I've got nothing against the Divine so that's fine with me. Death and creation seem odd to hold together though.

Addalme

Sora is... a bit...

Izanami-no-Okami

Those ar what I rule over, I once ruled over only creation, but I died and ended up in the underworld where I found a new dominion.

Addalme

You died? I think I know who killed you.

Izanami-no-Okami

I wasn't killed...I'd rather not talk about my death.

Addalme

My apologies.

*She arrives at the garden with a disturbed look on her face*

Tranquil? This place doesn't look tranquil at all with this fog around...

Quite eerie...

Addalme

Hi lavenza.

Izanami-no-Okami

This fog is what keeps prying eyes from peering into this place, I wouldn't want my associates to interfere with my peace...especially a certain lord of all evil...

Addalme

A lord of all evil?

Izanami-no-Okami

It's nothing for you to worry about...

Addalme

Ooook...

"He thinks"

"I'll know it when the time arrives... so I don't need to worry"

Izanami-no-Okami

*The garden, once again, appears before any who may wander into it*

Tatsuya

*He stands outside the garden and holds his phone for a while before making a call* Hello it's that guy from Leblanc, *He lists off the way to the garden* I'll let you choose what to do with it. *He walks off*

Akemi-Nakajima

*He walks around slowy, for the fog makes it hard to look around. But after a while, the young man is able to walk through it without much troube, getting closer to a woman, although he can only see her back*

Excuse me, where am I right now?

Izanami-no-Okami

Hmmm, a new wandering soul has emerged...strange, your presence is, familiar. This is a garden of my own creation, it is a place of peace guarded against other divines who might wish to turn it into a battleground.

Akemi-Nakajima

A battleground, I see.

*He crosses both arms and looks at her with some kind of interest*

You're a deity then, right? What is your name?

Izanami-no-Okami

I am Izanami, the goddess of creation and death.

Akemi-Nakajima

...

*He slowly drops his arms and get closer to her, trying to get a better look*

Izanami...are you, really Izanami?

Izanami-no-Okami

Why yes...of course I am. What is wrong?

Akemi-Nakajima

*He shakes his head.*

It's nothing...I guess I was just a little surprised to see you here, that is all.
Don't you remember me? I'm Akemi Nakajima...you helped me and Yumiko when we needed it most.

Izanami-no-Okami

I am sorry, but I am an Izanami from another universe. I do not remember you.

Izanami-no-Okami

I already know this, for the sin known as Ira informed me so.

Akemi-Nakajima

I see.

*He sits down with his legs crossed*

And yet again with this "Ira", I hear about him wherever I go. Regardless, I'm here for information.

*He pulls out a notebook and a pen.*

What is your nature in this universe, Mrs. Izanami?

Izanami-no-Okami

In my original world I wished to grant humanities desire for ignorance by covering the world in an endless fog so they would not search for the painful truth, however, since coming to this world it seems that a different approach is needed. The people here are happy with their truth or so it seams so a new test is needed, I am committing that test now.

Akemi-Nakajima

*He quickly takes notes on that*

What is that test?

Izanami-no-Okami

That I cannot fully reveal, but the players are already active...Ideals, hope, and destruction...though I could always use more players in this test.

Akemi-Nakajima

Oh?
And who are these "Players", are they those famous "Wild Cards" I've been hearing about?

Izanami-no-Okami

No, the wild cards would not make good subjects for this test, I need fresh test subjects who have yet to take a journey of their own.

Akemi-Nakajima

Interesting.

*He quickly takes one final note and puts his notebook in his bag*

Would you be willing to tell me their names? I will be honest with you, because even if you're a different Izanami, I do owe you much...I want to study them. This world has given me much...curiosity.

Izanami-no-Okami

Perhaps then...to be honest, I have had trouble finding worthy candidates. The most suitable one I have found is a human known as, Migrant. The others who I tried to make test subjects seem to have failed to wake to their proper potential in this test.

Akemi-Nakajima

Migrant...isn't that the man with the black mask? Why would you choose him?
Are there...really no other humans capable?
...
What is this..."potential" you speak of?

Izanami-no-Okami

The potential is that which awakens someone's inner power, it is given through simple skin contact. Originally I used it to allow people to travel into another world of my own creation, where they would face the painful truth about themselves.

Akemi-Nakajima

"Inner power" that reminds me of what that masked man told me...

*he checks his notes quickly and stops at a certain page. It takes him a second to read it.*

Is it a "Persona"? Or some other kind of power?

Izanami-no-Okami

A Persona is one effect of this awakening.

Akemi-Nakajima

I see...

*He closes his notebook and walks towards her, offering her his hand*

Thank you very much, it was nice meeting you again...well, "at last" in your case.

Izanami-no-Okami

Hmmm, perhaps I will keep an eye on you as well.

Akemi-Nakajima

*He smirks*

I'm sure I'll be a great test subject, after all...am I not the reincarnation of Izanagi?

Izanami-no-Okami

Are you? Your not the only one I've met however...rather the reincarnation of the Izanagi I knew exists in this world as well.

Akemi-Nakajima

I am the reincarnation of my world's Izanagi, according to that Izanami.
...This world makes my curiosity burn like a wildfire.

Izanami-no-Okami

Be wary of Yu Narukami...He is the seeker of truth who defeated me before...

*Izanami fades into fog as the garden begins to become obscured by fog as well*

Akemi-Nakajima

*He looks at his hand with annoyance*

Shoot.

*He shrugs and walks away with a smile of pure satisfaction.*
