    This is why we should have spent more time learning hacking charms. Help get the photos down.

    Basically every time we've intended to finally get our hacking charms something came up that delayed 'em and used up the xp we'd meant to use for them. Azazel and Raiser are examples of such interference's.

    The main reason we wanted them in the first place was to earn a source of income by hacking the bank accounts of terrorist groups and stuff. Then Azazel paid us something like a zillion yen for the data we let him farm off of Boosted Gear and our money troubles vanished.

    True, but it was still a series of delays that meant we didn't get our hacking charms like we'd intended to.

    I've read about the Kushisake Onna before. Allegedly you can get away if you say she's so-so, or average. I haven't been able to find out what happens if you try to get her bogged down in a philosophical discussion on what beauty is, precisely, which is what I really want to know.

    I've tried...it won't end well....for her that is.
    It will break down the basis of her origin and remove all of her dominant abilities...leaving her as an emaciated corpse.

    Holy shit, that's true. Yukari has been known to spirit people from the outside into Gensokyo for various reasons.

    "I would love to." In a sense. "Buuut, I'm already on thin-ice for being caught fighting by the student president, who is pretty strict. She will probably take a dim view of anyone besides faculty or attending students on campus without permission."

    You quickly suggest a solution. "However you should write her first and ask for permission, to show you follow the rules. If she authorizes it I will surely show you around."

    "True, true." Kiyotsugu nods sagely. "We can't just show up out of nowhere. Plus I need to rent a house in the vicinity." He takes out a iPhone and starts typing.

    'Uff. Crisis averted.'

    "Master!" Eiko steps inside the room holding a tray full of steaming cups. "Eiko prepared green tea. Would Master like some?"

    '...God hates me.'

    [He has a hate-boner for serpents and dragons, yes.]

    ----

    Luckily the others mistook Eiko for one of those working for Rikuo, and you ordered her telepathically to play along.

    Even if Keikain Yura kept switching from staring at you to her and viceversa, as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing but didn't know what to do either.

    When they finally leave you and Rikuo breath out a sigh in relief. "That was close."

    "Too much for my tastes." Rikuo silently cries. "This is only the second time, but I'm already hating it."

    "Was what the Onmyoji girl said true?" Tsurara suddenly ask.

    ""Eh?"" The both of you turn to her at the same time.

    She blushes slightly. "About dragons." She fidgets. "Alright I'm curious! So what?!"

    Eiko covers her mouth with a fan.

    "Nothing, nothing." You reassure her. "It wasn't...totally wrong."

    You begin explaining, Ddraig occasionally telling you info you weren't aware of. "There are dragons, and then there are Dragons. With the capital 'D'. The first are things that look what you expect dragons to however they don't have the raw power of the ones you hear about in myth and legend. They are the first [stage] of dragons."

    You make air quotes at the [stage] word.

    "Dragons are not beings who acquired power. They are power. They began as massive masses of energy that somehow gained intelligence. They however had no purpose so they just raged around like wild animals. Most of the dragons that exist today are like that. A Dragon instead has gained a purpose for their power. With a specific goal comes greater focus and more intelligence, and that's how those who appear in legends and myths appeared."

    "Oooh." Both children have stars in their eyes. "Does this make you a dragon with a purpose Hyodo-san?"

    "Almost." You wave your hand. "I'm still young, but I cheat by having an elder dragon tutoring me and sharing part of his energy with me. We're teacher and student so to say."

    [Never thought I would take a student. Then again nowadays few people take dragons seriously. What's with all of us dragons of legend either sealed or missing. Maybe new blood is what it takes.]

    "Young Master!" Kurotabou literally jumps inside. "I finally found you!"

    ----

    Once things calmed down you and Kurotabou explained your findings.

    "Are you sure Kuro?" Rikuo asks with a worried expression.

    "I double checked when I came back. No member of the Nura Clan was ever assigned to that place."

    "Uhm..." He starts pondering with an intense expression. After a few minutes he speaks again. "Soon there will be a new gathering of the Heads."

    "I am aware." Kuro answers. You didn't, but it isn't important.

    "With their mistrust in my leadership's abilities and grandfather's absence, we will not be able to present an united front unless I show them some result to convince them. I already assigned a mission to Gyuuki, but..."

    He seems to reach a conclusion. "Kuro. Hyodo-sempai. Can I ask you to investigate and stop this youkai? Not only because you were the one to find it, but in your case sempai I want the others to trust you. But without concrete proofs..."

    You raise a hand to stop him. "Say no more. I said I will help, and nothing will stop me from respecting my promise. You can count of me."

    "And on me Young Master." Kuro straightens his posture.

    He smiles. "Thanks guys! Oh, but the gathering will be held in three days so you need to finish it before that."

    A time limit. A new problem, but it will give you new experience for similar opportunities in the future.

    [] Submit a strategy to handle the mission (write-in)

    [] Optional. Do you what to do something before the mission?
    -[] Yes. What? (write-in)
    -[] No

    I actually don't know how motes and the whole thing with Exalted works, so I can't suggest a specific strategy. I do know though that it is better to perform recon first before plunging into an unknown situation.

    Maybe have someone with high stealth capabilities perform recon while you gather your forces/head to the area and assess the enemy strength/capabilities, wait for more info and refine your strategy there.

    If the place is spyproof, then use an unconventional entrance ala-Dynamic Entry to hopefully catch them off guard.

    If collateral damage can be contained/ignored/disregarded either via spells or SEP-field inducing techniques, then maybe go all out and enter via High Altitude Drop while aiming for the most obvious heat/power/youkai signature, like an ODST, or a bunker buster missile. That's probably shocking enough to knock someone out.

    we don't HAVE anyone who is high stealth to be honest >.> combat strategy I can do but I'm going to have to leave this to someone else, because the best I can think of is Issei walking in bold as brass with a fully charged Boosted Gear and dealing with the problem, subtle our Issei is not ^^; any of the really funky shit can probably be countered by IPP on a personal level as well so their is that, ymmv of course

    No stealth? well, like I said, if Collateral damage is no issue, and everyone inside is an enemy, then why not drop Issei like a bomb/missile? Or go the Kiritsugu-route and level the place with explosives/techniques? Though that's probably going too far.

    If it's a public building, maybe go do the Trojan horse route, and pose as a maintenance crew/pest control/CDC or something.
