Ravings of a Komusō

[Komusō]

An expansive field: at least 100 by 100 meters. Situated directly in the centre of the area is a perfectly spherical rock approximately four feet in diameter; Lee sits on top of this vantage point, reflecting on the meaning of life. Her attire is that of a Komusō, the only addition a necklace made from a large set of praying beads.

A Beautiful Goddess

As Lee would laze about her day she would find the skies beginning to unnaturally grow dark and before she'd even have time to realise the situation the moon would be hanging high in the sky and darkness would surround her. "My, my. What a pretty face, out here all alone." Appearing before her out seemingly nowhere a large circular bed surrounded at four points by long marble columns lay before her, draped with large red curtains so only the mere outline of a woman behind the fabric could be seen. "Such a pretty face, why hide it underneath all that clothing." she spoke as if the outfit itself was the problem when her face was clearly visible. Some light was shed on her meaning however as the curtains drew themselves as if by magic and her form was revealed to girl touched by fey. A woman scantly clad in revealing attire which despite the lack of clothing was needlessly complicated. Wearing only red loin cloth with gold coin links and white strips of fabric over her breasts, her wrists and ankles were strapped with white bandages and bangles, her upper arms fixed with a small bracer, and her head head fitted with a magic tiara comprised of an element called 'Gold Sylvehouseite,' the 'Trinket of the Wolf'. A gift to her from the great Madis, God of the Hunt, it blessed the wearer with great power.

The woman was lying on her stomach upon purple velvet sheets, gently kicking her feet behind her, with a fruit bowl resting nearby filled with a variety of exotic fruits. A gentle chiming of her jewelry sounded with each kick as she stared at the existentially pondering Lee, playing with her long, black and tied back hair. "How about instead of sitting upon this rock in the middle of nowhere, you fight for me in a competition as my representative. Win and I'll drown you with gold, lose and face the eternity of death. Personally I hope you fight and I hope you win, if you do I become King of Gods, moreover Queen but who's keeping score? Feel like having some fun?"

Lee was interrupted by the appearance of a lady, who was scantily clad, and laying on a bed. Quite a strange situation in which to find oneself. Lee had been trying to devise a way to spread peace through the lands, and if she were to take this as a sign, it could mean one of two things: A demon has been sent forth to lure her from the righteous path, or they had been sent to assist her in her quest.

Lee abruptly stood to her feet and addressed the woman directly, with hands raised to her chest, she bowed slight bow, and although her face was obscured by the basket she wore, her warm greeting should have still been heard “Namaste”. Perhaps this woman could serve a purpose, whilst an endless supply of gold was not of that much use Lee an audience with which she could spread her faith most certainly was. “If you have come seeking my assistance, then I am obliged to help you.”

Disappointed yet pleased

The Goddess rolled to lay on her back with a pout. "Well that's no fun. If you're obligated then it just makes me feel like I'm forcing you." With a wave of her hand the irregular weather and the night sky would be gone, replaced with their regular conditions.

The clouds would soon part and the image of a giant ship would appear soaring through the air before a loud booming voice could be heard. "Human, chosen as acolyte of the Goddess Yarae, Goddess Of Fertility, introducer of both sex and genders to your kind. I am Naeyar, God Of Messages. Do you accept this offer or do you pass?" The ship sailed through the air as if it were water, pushed along by giant white sails that caught the gusts of wind from above, and two smaller flags by the side of the ship pushed by artificial wind two two large turbines. Crafted from the finest timber it looked as though the lacquer finish had been polished for months to create such a sheen. With a stylized, solid gold bulbous bow reinforcing the a long pike protruding from the ships bow it looked as though it was literally cutting the clouds as it sailed through them like an ocean of fluffy white.

If Lee would accept the offer he find himself instantly teleported aboard. The ship looked giant from the ground but up close, it was so much more. It stretched for miles upon miles, it was as if were made for a crew of giants, and in actuality, it was. Off in the distance, such a long way away, Lee would spy a man steering the ship. It would be at the very edge of her sight but she would be able to see this man was wearing a white battle dress with golden trimming held up by brown leather suspenders. Atop his head was a roman helm crafted of gold, moulded to make it look as though the helm had sprouted wings and fitted with a Mohawk of unicorn mane. This was the Mystic Golden Helm of Divine Kings, a helm forged with the stolen horde of the great dragon Kovinth, Destroyer Of Men, by dwarves who sacrificed it to Naeyar in a great time of need. This helm acts as a ward against mind affecting ailments and help the wearer keep a sense of right while demeaning the wrong. Upon his feet were sandals crafted with leather and trimmed with gold. These were the 'Feet of Blessed Justice' a gift from the Goddess Sopuna, she had awarded it to him days after completing the sprint across the world. These boots double a the wearers speed allowing them to run both faster and for a longer time. Finally he wore upon his wrists leather bracers, the Champion's Bracers of the Prodigy. These bracers were a gift from his brother Ombus, youngest of the three. They increase the wearers strength by triple and were gifted to Naeyar amidst the boasting of Ombus who claimed to have no need for them.

The man was gripping the wheel and holding it tightly. If the Mist shinobi dared closed the gapw he would find he was further away than the rogue had thought. As she'd draw closer and closer to the helmsman she would find that he was a giant of a man, standing over one-hundred meters tall. Resting upon a frame by his side was a staff, the magical staff 'Dragon's Cane.' Carved from the bones of Mesanth The Mysterious One, it was fitted with a great jewel but upon the fitting the bones of Mesanth began to twist and turn to bronze and silver. Soon the images of serpents grew from the staff and accosted the jewel as if the dragons greed had surpassed the realms of life and death yet they froze before reaching it as the jewel began to glow blue. It created a shield of wings to protect itself and the serpents were halted in their advance. Some say the soul of Mesanth now lives within the jewel yet none have been able to communicate with it to confirm this theory. Other venture that the jewel was by chance the lost 'Eye of Mivtix', Goddess Of Jealousy. A lost treasure of the first wife of Hatuna, Goddess Of Thunder, which she crafted herself by tearing out her left eye and bathing it the waters of Masra, Goddess Of Truth. She used it to spy on Hatuna whilst she was away, driven mad by jealousy and paranoia, the Eye was capable of peering every corner of the universe.

The trip would be the longest of the group however it would still be over in a flash. In almost no time at all the ship would arrive at the Land of Wind's great forgotten Colosseum and the time for battle was soon at hand.
