[Action]

[It's morning when a sopping wet and shivering Izumo first wanders into the village, having fallen in the river. As confused and pissed as she is about showing up here--and the whole "suddenly having wings" thing--the first thing on her mind is changing out of the dress she woke up in and into something dry. She's still very much on her guard, though, and definitely doesn't plan on approaching anyone for help.

It doesn't take long for her to realize that people are taking things out of the shops without paying for them, so she starts to search through them for something to wear. The only way to find out if she can get away with just taking something like everyone else is to try, she supposes.]

[Voice]

So, these journals...I'd like some information about them. Can anyone give me a better explanation for how they work than "it's magic"? [She's not really doubting that they are, but she wants details.] Surely someone has to know something.

I'd also like to know anything you can tell me about the creatures that live here.

I am not responsible, I assure you! We have all been brought her from different worlds and had these wings forced upon us. They apparently act as our lifeline within this world, so great care must be paid to them!

...You're joking, right?

I wish I were capable of pulling off such a joke, only if it could inspire mighty youthful laughter. Yet... this is the truth we must all face upon being brought here, Miss. I am sorry.

...Oh. I get it. You're not joking, you're just crazy.

I must assure you of my sanity! What alternative explanation could there be for this situation?

There are...probably plenty of other explanations!

Ones that are... easier to believe than this? Tell me, Miss, have you located your journal yet? There is a Guide within that should detail the situation here.

...Journal? Do you mean this?

[Yep that would be her journal she's holding up.]

[He gives an excited thumbs up.]

Yes, that is it! It functions as a communication device and is also a resource to find answers regarding this situation.

I see. Well, then I won't be needing to talk to you anymore, now will I?

U-unless you wish to forge a bond of friendship, or perhaps to help with any particularly confusing issues...

Friendship? Seriously? Oh, please...

I-is there something wrong with the formation of any level of bond?

I don't need friends.

But... everyone has a need for companionship! Especially in a place such as this.

I do just fine without, no matter where I am.

You must be very skilled, in that case. Yet the offer of friendship is always an open one.

Yeah, thanks, but no thanks.

I will still gladly help you should I ever see you in crisis. May I ask your name, Miss?

Kamiki Izumo, if you must know.

[He bows.] It is an honor to meet you, Kamiki-san. My name is Rock Lee. In my village, I am known as Konoha's Beautiful Wild Green Beast!
