<i>It's still early in the morning, but even now, the stranger characters are out and about. Standing on top of a bench is a figure dressed in traditional Japanese clothes, along with a kitsune mask. Four glowing drums float beside them. They stare out at the little crowd, as if waiting for something.</i>

Where a tree once was, there are a collection of buildings. Music drifts through the streets as shadowy people walk between the various stalls. Some vendors sell masks, food, and other goods. There's even a booth with a rather familiar deck of cards.

(A dungeon/continuation of the previous thread. No prior knowledge is needed to join.) The tree that was once covered in flowers now sports countless brown, red, and orange leaves. A few float to the ground, covering the pink petals underfoot. A little girl and a black humanoid stand in front of the door attached to the trunk. A piano can be faintly heard from inside.

At the edge of Tokyo, a tree grows. No others like it are around, and flowers bloom on its branches despite the current season. A door is on the side of the trunk facing the city. A little girl and her black humanoid companion look up at the pink petals, some of which float lazily to the ground.

*Compared to other parts of the city, this area is practically destroyed. Many buildings are abandoned, and some seem on the verge of collapse. A little girl walks through the streets, her hand linked tightly with that of the much taller black humanoid next to her.*
