Kasumi Okamoto
Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 160 
Age: 23
Physical Description: As most women of Katashima are, Kasumi is not terribly tall, and stands at an unimpressive 5'4". She has skin that is considered of average coloration for her people, slightly darker than that of non-Katashimans, and is of a slender build, with delicate features. Her eyes are almond-shaped, and are brown, although the exact hue changes with her emotions, ranging from dark to light and often flecked or streaked with gold; her hair, though often kept up and out of her way, falls to just past her shoulders, and is a sleek, glossy black. Though she appears weak and not at all like one would expect a combatant to be, she is muscular enough to do her job, and do it well.
----------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Typically, Kasumi wears an outfit that is both comfortable and easy to move in. This consists of a sleeveless, midriff-baring black shirt that gapes open at the sides, revealing the bandages wound around her bosom, on her top half; around her neck rests a loose drape of black cloth that can be pulled up to obscure the lower portion of her face. On her lower half she wears a pair of loose black pants that come to just below her knees, with slits at the hips, and held up by a belt, at the back of which are the sheaths that hold her two tanto, her favored weapons. Rounding off the ensemble is a pair of black sandals, the straps of which wrap up her calves to tie just below the bottom of her pants, and a set of fingerless gloves that stretch up to above her elbow, on top of which she wears sturdy steel gauntlets. Aside from the obvious pair of swords, she also keeps a number of shuriken and kunai in her belt pouches, along with small glass spheres filled with various poisonous substances.

Kasumi wasted no time in taking Jou's hand as urged, but little attention was paid to the priestess as she spoke, only half-heartedly listening to her words.. until she was urged to respond to the vow spoken. Then she smiled up at her lover, the man who was at this very moment becoming her husband, and gently squeezed his hand while she spoke.
"I swear." She breathed a quiet laugh as Jou pulled her closer, her arms winding around his body while she kissed him with love and joy. They were wed! The kiss lingered for several long moments, broken only when she found herself in desperate need of a breath, whereupon she murmured to her husband.
"I believe we should take her her advice, my love. We have a new life waiting for us, and I can think of no better way to start." He was given a slightly sly smile, before she looked over at the priestess.. and the strange slightly glowy woman behind her. Interesting.
"Thank you, miko-sama."

And the spell was finished, imbuing their love with a powerful blessing that would probably have some unintended, yet beneficial side effects should they have any children.
Neva smiled to herself at the genuine joy and love evident in the couple's every movement towards each other. She waited to see what would happen next in the ceremony.

Age: 20
Physical Description: The rumor used to be that Hikari wasn't purely Tawakoshin, but both of her parents came from long lines of established lineage. The belief then became that she was touched by the blessing of the spirits. This was due entirely to the fact that she is tall for one of her people, standing at 5'6", and has brilliant blue eyes. More typical for her people are the shape of her features, the hue of her skin, and the inky blackness of her ankle-length hair. She has a delicate build that is reflected in her graceful movements.
--------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Typically, Hikari wears priestess garb, consisting of a short-sleeved top and a pair of comfortable pants in a pale shade of blue that's almost white. These garments are edged with small silver discs that jingle slightly when she moves. A wrap in various shades of blue is often draped across her upper body and secured around her waist, and she wears blue slippers upon her feet. In addition to this attire, she wears a headdress, necklaces, and bracelets of either gold or silver (depending upon her mood and/or the occasion) and adorned with blue gemstones. She often has on her person a harp that she plays with great skill. Unique to her position as the High Priestess of the Wavewarden, she can 'hear' words within the ocean, and interprets this as the will of their patron deity.

Hikari smiled, although she seemed slightly wistful. She'd performed many marriages, but romance had never been a part of her life. As a priestess, she was forbidden to marry or procreated - her body had to remain pure for her to hold her position, but sometimes... She shook those thoughts aside as she watched the couple kiss lovingly, and when the female spoke to her, Hikari bowed slightly.
"You are very welcome. Please, accept these traditional gifts." A trio of priestesses appeared, offering gifts. One held a talisman for each of them, made of shining white coral, inscribed with the symbol of the Wavewarden and a small prayer for good fortune. Another held a few small bags of seeds meant to symbolize the seeds planted by starting their new life together. And the last had a bag filled with a generous amount of the nation's currency, meant to help them get started.. or go find a room somewhere to vigorously consummate their marriage.

Jou accepts the gifts gratefully. "I am pleased our new nation's temples are so generous." Because it meant the nation itself was prosperous. Bowing to the priestess he says formally. "Thank you very much, you have helped ensure our new life together will start on the right foot." He waits for Kas to give her thanks and then he heads into the city, he'd like to get a room in the nearest inn to vigorously consummate his new marriage.

The gifts stunned Kasumi, but she didn't rebuff them. It would be rude. So she took one of the bags as well and bowed deeply to the priestess once more.
"Thank you. So very much." Then she smiled at Jou, and accompanied him eagerly out of the temple. Time to begin their life together!

Neva walked over to Kasumi, laying a hand on her shoulder as she watched the pair leave the temple.
"Are you married priestess? That was a very moving ceremony you gave. They will be happy in their new life I hope."
She should probably figure out what form that blessing would take, before it reared its head at a bad moment.

Hikari smiled after the pair, then looked over at Neva, a slightly sad gleam about her blue eyes while she shook her head in response to the question.
"No, Warden-sama. I am forbidden marriage and children as long as I am part of this temple, as are all of the priests and priestesses. Once vows have been taken, the temple is your life." A few acolytes had begun to remove the items from the ceremony, carting them away, though many continued to lurk in the gardens, watching Neva with awe and curiosity.

This struck Neva as odd, as she did not factor in the relative age of mortals nor their need for sleep.
"How can you provide wisdom to people if you do not have the ability to experience all that life has to offer? I understand dedication to your job, but to deprive yourself of something so core to the mortal experience...seems almost cruel."
She seemed genuinely saddened by this, her own duties did not prevent her from such things, and her responsibilities were far more immense than a single temple.

Hikari looked puzzled by this.
"It is.. simply our way. One cannot commune with the powers of the world without being pure of mind, heart, spirit, and body. To give my heart or my body to another would be to taint myself and make it impossible for me to perform my duties. Or.. so it has always been taught." A troubled gleam entered her gaze, now. Could it be that the teachings were wrong? If the Wavewarden herself said they were limiting her capabilities as high priestess, did that mean things should be changed? Hikari fell silent, worrying the hem of her sleeves between her fingertips as she pondered this. Finally, she shook her head.
"Even if our doctrine were to be changed now, it would make little difference. I am seen as holy by all the people of Tawakoshi, and none would ever think of approaching me with romantic intent. It is a lonely existence, at times, but I am happy to serve the people. I know nothing else."

"That is...fair I suppose, it certainly makes sense. Sad though. And you should know that I demand no such thing, and should you choose to do so, I would defend your decision."
That she was turning on centuries of tradition was not something that occurred to her would be a significant thing. To her it was not even half a lifetime, and she was still naive of the ways mortals worked.

Hikari looked thoughtful, nodding slowly. Perhaps she would meditate on this, see if she could come up with an idea that would allow such freedoms to her priests and priestesses.. and perhaps even herself. And then she would confer with the Daimyo, if she had any thoughts on the matter. He had no say in matters of the spirit, but if things were to change, she would need his support. After a few moments, she shook herself out of her thoughts and smiled up at Neva.
"Thank you for your advice and encouragement, Warden-sama. Perhaps it is time for a change in the way we do things. I will meditate on this notion. For now, our temple is yours - please go wherever you like and do whatever you wish. We are happy to have you among us. I will alert you when the evening meal is ready, yes?"

"Of course Priestess, and yes do let me know. I greatly desire to hear more about the people who have dedicated their life to my cause."
She bowed low to the Priestess and left to wander about the Temple, doing her best not to get in anyone's way.

Hikari's return bow was even deeper than Neva's, as was only fitting, given their respective differences in status, in the priestess's eyes. Once she had departed and the others had emptied out of the area, she settled down beside the koi pond to meditate. It would be perhaps two hours later that a young acolyte came to inform her that the evening meal was ready, and she went off in search of Neva. Upon finding her, she gave the Wavewarden a warm smile.
"Warden-sama, the meal is ready." She'd wait for Neva to be ready, then lead her to a large room filled with tables. The tables were laden with food of all sorts, both produce from the sea and from the earth, and jugs full of water, fruit juices, and flavored rice wines. Hikari took her place at the lone table at the head of the room, where an extra place had been set up for Neva (should she so choose, there were plenty of open spots at the other tables for her to sit at, if she preferred); once the dragon had settled herself wherever she liked, the priestess gestured for the meal to begin.

Neva had found a quiet room to contemplate her discovery in, waking from the trance calmly when the priestess opened the door.
"Thank you Priestess, I am ready."
She stood smoothly, following the woman down to where the meal would be served, taking the offered seat and looking at those assembled.
"Before we start eating, I would like to thank each of you for the work you do in helping the people and your dedication to this Temple. I look forward to sharing many more meals and getting to know each and every one of you. Now let's eat!"

The assembled priests and priestesses halted when Neva spoke, looking at her curiously. Then quiet applause was heard and a gentle ruckus of delight when she announced her intentions. Finally, they began to dig in to the meal, talking amongst themselves readily. There was much laughter and sounds of enjoyment - they were like one big family, with the elders gently teasing the youths and the like. Hikari smiled, looking away from her people to Neva, and speaking quietly.
"Never have I seen my people so lively. Your presence will be good for them, I think. Thank you, Warden-sama."

Neva enjoyed the atmosphere as well, taking care not to jest too seriously, lest anyone take offense, laughing good-naturedly alongside everyone else.
"I am glad to see such happiness in my temple, you have fostered an environment of friendship, loyalty, and trust, a commendable effort for one so young. You are clearly wise beyond your years, priestess."
This was said quietly, Neva leaning over to whisper into Hikari's ear.

A wrap in various shades of blue is often draped across her upper body and secured around her waist, and she wears blue slippers upon her feet. In addition to this attire, she wears a headdress, necklaces, and bracelets of either gold or silver (depending upon her mood and/or the occasion) and adorned with blue gemstones. She often has on her person a harp that she plays with great skill. Unique to her position as the High Priestess of the Wavewarden, she can 'hear' words within the ocean, and interprets this as the will of their patron deity.

"I had wise teachers. These people are all the family I remember, and it gives me great pleasure to do all I can for them.." She had vague images of her parents from when she was barely a few years old, but she hadn't seen them since she was given to the temple. They were no more family to her than the ancestors who were long dead. But these people... She looked out on them with the fond expression of one who saw her kin, and was happy to see them living in such joy. Hikari ate sparingly, picking at this and that, her mind not on the meal at all, her gaze distant and deeply thoughtful.

Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 259
Age: 850
Physical Description: Neva's form is as fluid as the rivers she protects. Her usual form is approximately forty meters, armored with an incredibly thick, scaly hide. Her head is a armored as well, with long horns or fins, depending on whether she is moving through water or land. In her human form she tends to take the shape of a young, tanned, attractive woman, with long dark hair. Finally, she can take the form of any animal that spends the majority of its life in any watery area of the world.
Clothes and Equipment: In her human form, she is wearing thick leather armor of a similar substance to her dragon hide. The only weapons she wields are a pair of javelins and a long spear. The weapons are magical as she sees fit, variously imbuing them with her own magical powers.

"Then they must be very proud of you."
She could tell that the priestess's mind was not on the feast, likely still contemplating what they had spoken about earlier. Neva returned to her food, eating the delicious meal with great gusto.

Hikari Saito
Established
Roleplay posts: 26
Age: 20
Physical Description: The rumor used to be that Hikari wasn't purely Tawakoshin, but both of her parents came from long lines of established lineage. The belief then became that she was touched by the blessing of the spirits. This was due entirely to the fact that she is tall for one of her people, standing at 5'6", and has brilliant blue eyes. More typical for her people are the shape of her features, the hue of her skin, and the inky blackness of her ankle-length hair. She has a delicate build that is reflected in her graceful movements.

The meal progressed, lingering over a few hours, until well after the sun had set. Then people began to disperse, some back to their rooms, some to tend to meditation or various duties, some to clean up the dining hall and the kitchens. Hikari remained where she was, looking contemplative, then slowly stirred. She looked over at Neva with an inquisitive glance.
"Will you be staying the night, Warden-sama?"

"I believe I will be staying for a time. I desire to establish a permanent settlement of sorts. If it would not be an imposition, I should like to do that here."
She said this rather earnestly, a tad curious if the priestess would tell her no.
