Ebisu's Inbox

[chibisu]

[For anyone who is familiar with Ebisu in person, they might be expecting the sound of a cute child on the answering machine.]

[They do not get a cute child's voice.]

[Instead, it's the voice of a young man, speaking calmly and professionally.]

Hello. You have reached the personal phone and temple of Ebisu, one of the Gods of Fortune. He and his shinki are currently busy right now, so please leave a message and someone will respond back to you as soon as possible.

Thank you, and have a nice day.

[ Ugh, looks like they know about the gas already. There goes her mighty report unless- unless maybe her piece of information might be useful anywa ]y.

It's about the gases and the fissures. They are strong and shoot high into the atmosphere- [ Which is something they probably already know, though the part of going high is not important if you don't fly ] -you are probably already aware of it, but I infer it's better to report anyway. Those vapors had unexpected effects on my god - causing unrest and hallucinations. I am unsure if they will have any other side-effects, but I'm monitoring his state through his rest.

[ Better to share and find out the information is known, or to keep it and then it turns out no one else knew and more victims suffer ]

Perhaps those going there should use equipment like breathing apparatus. [ Or magic ]

[chibisu]

Hallucinations...?

[That has him pause with a frown, and he immediately reaches for where his phone is resting along the desk.]

We had been mostly concerned with physical effects such as what they could do to lungs. Hallucinogenic properties make this situation all the worse.

[Who knows when someone might attack another, after all, tricked by their own mind.]

I'll be certain to let the young master and my associates know.

[ So, in the end, it was of use. Good ]

Please do. We nearly crashed when those visions had set in.

[ Things she never expected to do - suddenly be on the driving seat of a flying chariot ]

In the meantime, if there is any help I can provide here on site- [ She trails off, letting him suggest something. She's not going anywhere outside of the temple, not until Iskandar wakes up. But if she could be of some use it would put her mind at ease. ]

[It only takes a quick message to be sent along their servers before, in only moments, the entire temple has been alerted. This way, if any of them start acting strangely in a way that isn't just coughing and loss of vision, now they'll have even more of an idea of what to do.]

[In the meanwhile.. Kiwami studies her carefully.]

...Are you familiar with modern office equipment?

[defensivematrix]

Yes, I am proficient with it

[ She finds really easy to operate all kinds of modern devices, and even had to explain her god "what is internet". That sure was a trip. ]

If you can't spare a station- [ Security and all that. Also awkward potentially having to log-in into someone's account ] I have a tablet with a full professional office suite on me.

[chibisu]

We have somewhere available. Hold on.

[Just a quick message sent up to one of the higher floors...]

We're short on staff due to this event and others, we need someone to fill in the gaps. The young master will ensure you're compensated for your time.

[defensivematrix]

That's very generous of him. But he already had offered us a shelter.

[ She won't say no to a compensation but, hey, they're already allowed to stay here and she just wanted to pay back for that. ]

What should I take care of?

[chibisu]

Third floor. Aomi will give you more indepth instructions, but it will essentially involve data entry. Perhaps more depending on how things go.

[After all, if she's good with numbers, well... That's a valuable skill anywhere in the temple.]
