In a rental all-terrain vehicle for the day, Kamui takes Moshi Atena for the Shrine to Mori no Reiou for some sightseeing and then to the Murkwater Bay after this.

He gives a smile to Moshi-san. "We've here..." He turns the vehicle off, unbuckles the safety harness and opens the door to get out.

The ride was nothing he couldn't handle, especially after playing in the sand with the buggy yesterday. That were a few treacherous spots, but they made through without a problem. The shrine looks like it was not just built on a cliff, but was built into the cliff. That is a feat of ingenuity and dedication. This looks like a place to spend all day there, basking in it's magnificent majesty.

Atena nodded and came out the ATV. "Arigatou Daidoji san." She walked looking around. The place seemed a bit ominous. "Interesting architecture... isn't it?"

"Yes, yes it is." He looks in the Shrine and sees it's built into the cliff face. "This looks like it could have taking centuries to build. Not is mention, it's ancient as well."

"Actually a few good earth shugenja could mold the kami. I doubt that that is what happened here." She shrugged. "This stone looks intriguing." She moved to feel the rock face.

He walks up to the rock face close to Moshi-san. He touches the rock and it just feels cold. "It feels like a rock to me. What do you feel?"

"Feels rugged... but it is a rock... but...huh." She pursed her lips as if thinking. "Where would a volcano be?"

"I don't know. Is that something wind telling you?" He asks quizzically. "Not, teasing you, either."

The Moshi chuckled. "No Daidoji san... the type if rock... it is made from molten lava." She looked at the cave system. "Hmmm... perhaps it is underground... I wonder."

"Oh." He gets a sheepish grin. He looks closer. "So it is..."

"Hmmm... Do you have your lantern?" She smiled .

"Actually, I have a conelantern and an old timey lantern if the cone stops working." Kamui goes to the ATV and opens the trunk to get the lanterns and his traveling pack. He walks back to Moshi and hands her the conelantern. "I even have a flint and tinder too."

"I don't think we will need fire but one can never be too prepared." She nodded. "Shall we?"

"Sounds good to me." He gives her a nod. "And, in the army they train you for eventualities. I mean, I have a small tent and rations in the pack too. Hopefully we won't need them, but you never do..."

"I doubt we will be staying long... we need to get back to the city." She nodded. "Just let's see what is beyond the surface."

"Yes, do need to get back later, and I believe the rental has an emergency number too. So we've good. I'm just saying my pack is an survival kit. Ooo, I have sake, I forget about that..." He starts shifting around with his pack. "Um, it's for... disinfectant... Huh, yeah."

"Oh... okay..." Atena agreed. "It doesn't matter Daidoji san... just a small hike inside the cave. "I also brought sake... so it is okay."

"Oh really?" He looks happy surprised way. "I knew I liked you." He gives her a wink. "Well, you have the lantern, I will follow you."

She walked into the cavern and tried to keep the lantern low not to disturb any of the local fauna. "I wonder if there are bats in here."

"I thought this shrine was frequented fairly regularly, but I don't know." He shrugs.

She nodded. "That doesn't mean the local fauna cannot inhabit the local caves... gomen..." She sighed. "That was out of place."
