To anyone generally dealing with Kamala. Yes that means you, Onni, Shian, Shikou, Kou, etc.

Keep ANY foreigners you or she doesn't know away from my daughter. By any means necessary.

Apparently 'champions' and 'heroes' from across the globe, from what I'm being told, are after her. And most are being kept from entering Japan. But some might slip through the cracks.

Explain.

[itkananbe]

The best way I can explain it is... The Mandala Manticore is a... Chthonic(???) Goddess, you don't worship them, or if you do, it's under very strict circumstances.

The Mandala Manticore is... basically a mean-spirited luck goddess. Or at least finds the most darkly funny option the best.

[blackrthanblack]

And your intentions with my daughter.

[itkananbe]

Uh. I was sent to track if the prophecies were actually lining up.

But. I'd honestly like to ask her out on an ice cream date, ma'am?

[blackrthanblack]

Wait. What.

[itkananbe]

I want to protect Kamala, ma'am.

And if you'll let me, take her out for ice cream some time.

I'd LIKE the whole undoing the "Crime of Atlantis" stuff, but, that's like down my list, Mrs. Wakahisa?

[blackrthanblack]

So.

No nefarious schemes?

[itkananbe]

None.

I'm more like a religious order's version of a birdwatcher, sorta, ma'am?

[blackrthanblack]

And. The Crime of Atlantis, thing?

[itkananbe]

Uh. Let me flip through my notes.

It's sort of mythology on our end, 10,000 years or so ago, Atlantis was a paradise where man and monster once lived side-by-side. Like, we do live a long time but the people who'd know are few and far between?

One day, the Orichalcos erupted from the Earth, and granted Atlantis the Knowledge of Good and Evil, and it became a powerful civilization, equal to the Astrals from the age before Atlantis.

However, man grew proud and corrupt with the knowledge of the Orichalcos, the king went mad, guided by the dark stones to revive a nightmare from the dawn of creation, "The Great Leviathan", from an age older than the Astrals, if you believe in such stuff.

So, like, a great war of monsters and monsters you could call 'Gods' aligned together to take down Atlantis.

After Atlantis was defeated and sunken into the sea, uh, basically 99% of monsters on Earth were kicked off of Earth, and the remainder fell into sleep or built their own little kinds as like. Magic and stuff. Started to bleed out of the world.

The reason is like, Atlantis proved Earth couldn't have magic nor could monsters be here, according to those that remained, but it could of just been. You know. Greed?

The whole prophecy with Kamala is um.

Okay, so like the dimensional weirdness over Domino and Japan?

The best guess is Kamala would make it. Much. Bigger.

And let most of us that can't cross over back in.

[blackrthanblack]

... so my daughter's being targeted because a bunch of other spirits don't want to share?

[itkananbe]

Yessum, ma'am.

[blackrthanblack]

Wow, fuck those guys.

[blackrthanblack]

Excuse my mouth.

[itkananbe]

It's fine, Mrs. Wakahisa, I've heard worse at school from the boys in class.

[itkananbe]

Though, you can make a huge argument of "Here be monsters" is bad and humanity can only thrive in a world "without magic".

So.

[blackrthanblack]

Yeah, fuck that. Excuse my mouth.

And have you told Kamala any of this.

[itkananbe]

No, ma'am. Well. I have. For this and asking her out. But bad timing and... I think Kamala just is select oblivious.

Trying to explain I'm a spirit myself just seems to go over her head, and she hasn't realized like 60% of our friend group is spirits.

[blackrthanblack]

How.

[itkananbe]

Either she's an airhead, no offense, ma'am. Or she's like enchanted.

[blackrthanblack]

... Keep her safe, you hear.

I'm going to mull over this with my wife and our spouse.
