That which cuts

1. [The previous mission had ended relatively well. And so, one may find Seta actively using her phone without minding her surroundings...even as she walks or eats. It seems like she's gotten a lesson on how to finally use the device from someone, for better or worse.

If a person actually manages to peek at the screen though (it's not hard at all), they'll see many out-of-focus pictures of what looks like white scales. There are more blurred images like these, including one that seems to depict a wolf-like creature tackling a serpent-thing, and a random shot of many long, black limbs...and a wine glass.

Whoever took these obviously didn't wait for the auto-focus to kick in and snapped them straight away, making it difficult to tell exactly what they are...even so...]

So, this is what it does...

On top of making calls, as well...what else is it capable of...?

...Aah...this technology...is incredible...!

2. [On a more serious note: like in Alhambra a while ago, Seta now stands facing a group of dummies out on an empty square that is located somewhere in the uninhabited parts of Sakihama City.

This time, attached to the left side of her waist by red ribbons, are a pair of curved swords. Together, a set like this is known as a daisho, and in this case, said set is comprised of a long katana and a shorter wakizashi.]

...

[The strange part of this is that she's been doing nothing but staring at the dummies. Her right hand rests on the longer blade's handle - there's a firm grip, but she never draws it.

Minutes and hours go by...and still, nothing happens...until she lowers her head in defeat.]



...I do not understand...I was able to draw it before. What made it so different back then...?

That is a tricky one then.

Wait, the creature was a bird in this case right? And it used fire as a means to regenerate itself, that strikes me as a pretty close view to the Phoenix from mythology. Maybe that could be a clue?

You were worried about a friend and wanted to consume certain foes to protect or restore her position in your organization and in turn her life if I view the consequences of turning traitor correctly?

Perhaps that fed into something, but then again this is a wild guess from what I know for living near city of Phoenix for part of my childhood and could be entirely off base.

Hmm... this is a tricky one then. Maybe it's an intensity thing or potentially environmental?

At this point I'd try tapping the other mythology or magic experts. We were able to stumble into lightning but maybe they'll know some obscure bit of mythology or lore that could help.
