Approximately a full day's walk on horseback from the nearest town of Shimokawa, the Shrine of Reason lies within a placid and shallow lake, and is highly revered by scholars and inventors all throughout Tawakoshi. It marks the center of a vast antimagic field of mysterious origin, engulfing the lake and a couple acres of land around it. It is to here that many make pilgrimages to study, with subjects including nature, mathematics, engineering, and antimagic itself. A small sect of monks, devoted to magic silencing and it's principles and ways, live near and maintain the shrine.

Age: 31
Physical Description: More or less average size for a Northlander, he has dark red hair and green eyes on a face that years and experience have not been kind to though one can see that there have been some recent improvements; he has a naturally very ruddy complexion. He has a thick but short beard, as well as poorly groomed but naturally straight growing and thus easily maintained hair. He is vaguely athletic from farm-work and manual labour though perhaps his stronger muscles are not the ones most important for combat.
Clothes and Equipment: Thick robes, scripture of all sorts, crosses, a large staff with four steel flanges to appear like a cross and a box chained to a thigh that he never lets go of that doesn't seem to open no matter the lock-picker, magics used or the reverse. Under his robes is a thick steel collars and various bits of blood-drawingly tight plate upon the man, and it is not certain whether they more harm or protect the wearer. He carries as well some basic herbs and alchemical equipment, accordion, and a bottle of steel-melting stuff he refers to as "holy wine."

Walking with Ayame Hisakawa to the Shrine Johan seemed to get distressed as they entered the anti-magical fields, making strange gestures and movements with his right hand in the air and then looking down disappointed. "Is there some power here?" He asked, not really knowing how to ask his question without revealing his nature.

"What is this? Did Genji fall ill again?" Ryuzo Hizashi said so himself as he read the letter the courier had brought him. "How can a guy like that turn up and usurp power like that and be treated like a war hero only to fall to some... some virulent kind of herpes?!?" Ryuzo complained and crumbled the letter. "I've read what I need, you can have this back." he said and placed the crumbled piece of paper in the courier's hands and closed his fingers around it.
As his duty bound him, he was to stay at the shrine of reason, though 'serious family issues' could lead the head monk give one leave for a brief or an extended period of time. Thinking about his son Kojuro and that he would be the one to lead Kiyonai now, he thought that the word 'crisis' wasn't to be exaggerating and he quickly found he would write a letter where he would ask the head monk to excuse him because of pressing family matters. He would then prepare to travel back to Kiyonai and the Hizashi mansion to meet up with the family that had supported their uncle Genji instead of him, and had been the cause that he had to go into exile as a monk of reason.
