Oof, forgot to add a link to this re: player event here

viewtopic.php?f=88&t=354

Also adding a question - should I handle creating a Bangle in-game, or do we handwave it (maybe as something brought from home or something)?
Handwave it.

She doesn't remember clearly what the writing looked like, just the meaning it conveyed.

"Without hubris, would you be a Crane?"

It seemed to be half a joke, half serious, as Sora trained his gaze upon the young Crane.
Does the Magic Eye show Sora a cool 3-d picture of some kind here, or is the Magic 8-Ball unclear, try again later?

This is kind of a "Confirm A and B and true, and then if both is C true"

A: That the Isawa had mastered rice cultivation as of Heavenfall
B: The Spider currently reside in former Isawa lands
C: They have access to rice cultivation, and through that, a calorically dense staple crop that could be exported.

A: Well before that, yes.
B: Yes.
C: Rice cultivation is spreading anyway as a result of many Isawa joining both the Spider and Imperials, but at the moment, yes.
