"I do love getting to take part in local traditions." Ren isn't too much to look at in the fundoshi, little flab on his body, closer to skinny as a bird. "This is going to be one heck of a story later"

"These customs are really important to our people" Takesh explained seriously.

"We can respect these traditions and enjoy ourselves." Hifumi nodded as she watched those ahead.

"Gomen ne, Kuni-san, I meant no offense. I am trying to get into the spirit of things." Ren motions to the outfit, or relative lack thereof. "I can't say that I quite understand it, but I don't need to understand it in order to respect it. Would you like to start us off?"

Takeshi nodded. He prepared himself to honor the ceremony and began chanting.

4 Shrine Points!

It was of course an easy task for Takeshi, after all he was used to doing it every year. Self-confident and imposing, he led his group.

Ren isn't exactly a burly person. Going out on a limb to do something different and embracing the culture of where you were visiting was one thing.

Being good at it was another.

He huffs and puffs for most of the time, but does manage to get up the hill to give out of the offerings.

Hifumi led the group, carefully measuring each step. Her strength and training were well suited to the task.

as opposed to the Lon, Diachi WAS burly and used to carrying heavy loads as party of training and supply trips. The big Crab took the burden wth a smile and a good natured laugh with those whom he was working with. "HAHA! Now thats the spirit!" he bellowed to his crew as well as any others who were in ear shot.
