Ruka's quiet for a long moment, considering what to say. "It's called Rogetsu Isle-- it means 'Hazy Moon.' It's the largest island in the Rogetsu Archipelago."

Her brow furrows slightly and she looks back down at the paper, half-heartedly sketching out a rounded stage. "Every ten years, on September 17th, there's a lunar eclipse and a special ceremony called the Rogetsu Kagura that's performed to honor the dead. A priestess and 5 Organs-- Instrumentalists--do a special song and dance. It became pretty popular.

And... Masks. It became famous for its crafts, with the mask making at its center. The masks were a huge part of the island, they were everywhere. At the Kagura, it was mandatory for everyone to wear a mask, visitors and islanders alike, and no two masks were ever the same."
