The Memory is so Vivid [Open]

A smirk appeared on the young Shinkou's face upon hearing Satoshi's remark. "What's not to love about the two of you?". Yami then greeted everyone else, giving them a friendly nod before stopping at Tokito as he'd give the youngest of the River orphans a pat on the head. "Not for camping no, but setting something on fire .." he'd playfully tease his brother as he accepted the request. "Sure, I'll handle it lest we'd want you to burn this whole place down". Considering there were five of them Yami figured it wouldn't hurt to have two fires, unless they all wanted to snuggle together.

While starting a fire and helping with setting up camp, Yami listened as one of his brothers shared a story with the rest of the group. Tokito, the youngest, began to explain how it would already be the third time something similar happened, the first time being back around Halloween when the orphans found themselves waking up in a hotel where they had to deal with undead creatures such as zombies. "I remember" the lion haired Shinkou voiced upon recalling those memories. However, any mention of Moon Country and elves sounded like news to him as it would be his first time hearing of it.

It appeared they were not alone, information about a certain bard having spent years in the dimension reached Yami's ears, perhaps something worth checking out. "I suppose we simply have to follow the sound of his voice" the Shinkou spoke, referring to the so called singing of the strange individual. Standing up after successfully having started the fire Yami then decided he might as well check things out in case it would give them any leads. "So, who's with me?". Hopefully it wouldn't take all that long to find the bard and they could be on their way back home.

The party seems to have everyone that'll arrive. Some of the people have met before, and Anzuru begins to miss their family based on what they see. Yellowjackets buzz but Anzuru doesn't have anything to add in camp prep. If it were a survival story, Anzuru would fall first. Even though dimensions are marvelous, Anzuru hasn't traveled much at all, and with travel comes experienced dangers. Anyway, if most dimensions are endless, Anzuru figures they'll be able to go anywhere they put their mind to eventually.

Arashi's status or the village's has little consequence to Anzuru, who has no idea what to do in general. The origins and focuses of people are different than Anzuru's, but he still tries to inch closer to Arashi, looking for shelter by nature. The others besides Anzuru seem to know each other beforehand after all. 

Tokito's story for whenever it commenced had Anzuru listen to it patiently. Inside, Anzuru was excited, as the story means dimensions such as this are common. Teleporting people en masse to a random non-dimensional place doesn't qualify to be as interesting. Different races in the story quell Anzuru's mood, since they don't really trust any sort of alien being. Conquering a dimension is better than acquainting with mysterious habitants. Ghostly bards sound better than whining beasts. Nodding to Yami if well, Anzuru keeps their prior neutral gaze. 

"Nice to meet you! Um, I'd like to come see." Anzuru greeted and began to be more open-minded. Following over to Yami, Anzuru drops their idea to accompany Arashi for the moment.

The Shinobi chuckled, shaking his head.  "I'm a shinobi, I'm a founder, and I'm a father.  That's about as close as I get to nobility," he stated, shaking his head as he watched his work taking shape for the camping.  He looked up and listened to the younger person explain what he went through, and what was something he seemed almost desensitized to.  

As he stood up to see what the others were doing, he walked over to the rest of the group.  He certainly wasn't going to be the one left out.  At least hopefully not.  He stood by, listening to the younger person, as he came up with a plan, or what sounded like one.  He started to hear the singing that was being referred, and when one of the others suggested following it, he had to shrug his shoulders.

"Lead the way.  I have no better plan." he admitted, readjusting his own clothes a bit tighter since he was going to more than just walk a festival.  With a sigh, he took a couple of steps forward, crossing his arms as he waited to see what the others were going to do, before finally following them.  The sooner he was able to get this done, the sooner he could return to his own family.
