I do wonder what sort of festival this "Halloween" is. Such an odd name. The decorations are quite odd, as well. These webs about could be a hindrance to movement, though without the presence of the Kraken, such movement will probably not be necessary for at least a few days. Bishamonten watch over the festival so it will go without trouble.

Also, I have noticed many new arrivals. Pity there is yet to be a sign of Shingen-dono or Kasuga.

Halloween?

Indeed. It was written upon one of the notifications the locals hung up.

...Is it...necessary...to attend this...festival?

[video]

[echigo-wargod.livejournal.com]

I am uncertain. However if this festival follows suit of ones prior, then attendance is voluntary.

I see. Thank you, ah...?

It's a different way of saying All Hallow's Eve, and it's a strange event celebrating all things haunted. Various countries celebrate it differently, but the food should be good at least.

Such an unusual thing to celebrate. I would expect a celebration of ancestors but of hauntings? How unusual.

I'm not entirely sure why either, just that it is mostly commonly related to the harvest festival and the celtic god Samhain, and/or it's a festival for the dead. Throughout the years, it evolved into something like this.

I am not familiar with Samhain at all. Quite possibly it is a foreign concept.

Ah yes, the festival is held over in Europe. Halloween itself though, is much more global, even though it wasn't celebrated in Asia until more recently, and for more commercial reasons. Selling candy, food, and even costumes is quite profitable.

I see. It must be after my time that it comes to Japan.

[vermillionlotus.livejournal.com]

Quite a while too. Still, it'll be an interesting experience, no?

[ video ]

[echigo-wargod.livejournal.com]

Indeed. Quite unusual, like nothing I have seen.

This land here does celebrate a rather wide range of festivals.

[Oh, finally! A recognizable face that doesn't belong to that pirate! Never mind what he actually said. Have a happy Tsuruhime, Kenshin.]

So the God of War really is here!

[ he offers a soft smile in return. ]

Indeed I am. Have we met before?

Re: Video;

[jumpingoracle.livejournal.com]

We have! It was only very briefly, but your reputation precedes you.

[echigo-wargod.livejournal.com]

So I have been told by many here. Though I certainly would have remembered someone as charming as you. What is your name?

[jumpingoracle.livejournal.com]

[Charming? Careful, Kenshin.

It's understandable if you don't remember me, but I'm Tsuruhime from Kono! It's nice to finally meet you again.

Video;

[echigo-wargod.livejournal.com]

A pleasure, Tsuruhime, to meet you. Again, as the case may be.

Video; wow sorry about that html fail

[jumpingoracle.livejournal.com]

Yes. It's really an honor.

...as for this Halloween, I'm not sure about it, either. I hope it isn't troublesome or anything.

Video; lol all good

[echigo-wargod.livejournal.com]

If it is similar to festivals prior, then it shall be quite a pleasant one.
