It seems you've also come to this [[Rougetsu Island|island]] for work. I have come to Rougetsu Island to focus on studying its society.<br><br>

The purpse of my latest research is this island's [[Mask of the Lunar Eclipse|mask]]. It is known that the mask is related to the island's religion; however, there are still many mysteries.<br><br>
My research is focused on the island's masks. It is well-known that masks are a part of the local belief system, but beyond that there are many mysteries.


This is the year of the [[Rougetsu Kagura]] which occurs every decade. Many masks are made for the Kagura.<br><br>
The a once-in-a-decade kagura is taking place this year, so a great number of masks are being produced right now.


If all goes well, perhaps I might be able to visit the actual place where the island's masks are made.<br><br>
If all goes well, I'm hoping visit the site where the masks are made and witness the creation process myself.


I think I'm going to stay on the island for a while. Remember my younger sister, [[Iori Aiba|Iori]]? She's also with me.<br><br>

Iori wants to meet you and have a drink together when you come to the island. We haven't had many opportunities to drink since becoming productive members of society.<br><br>
Iori misses getting to see you, too, though, so let's all have a drink when you get here.

First of all, the Kagura mask is the part of the ceremony believed to represent the gods. Traditionally, the form of the god for the coming year is unified with the current god during the Kagura.<br>

However, Rougetsu Island's mask is not the face of a god. First of all, this island does not worship a god.<br><br>
　霧島へ


It became known as the Rougetsu Kagura recently, however it was formerly known as the "[[Kiraigou]]". The name takes its meaning from an old word wich talks of the return of the dead.<br><br><br>

...I think that since masks are put on the faces of the dead, the island's mask perhaps imitates the dead.<br>

...This mask is the form of death on the island?<br>

Or perhaps in the form of the dead..?<br><br>
この島の仮面信仰は知られているが、

If you imagine an unchanging dead face, could this eternal face be the true representation of the island's mask? Did the mask used in the Kiraigou have some kind of unique role in the ritual..?<br><br><br>

...That is the mask worn by the [[Utsuwa]]. The Utsuwa's mask was made before all the other Kagura masks, and these other masks have different origins.<br><br>


Even among those, I was struck by the prominent prescence of the imitation of the [[lunar eclipse]] made by [[Souetsu Yomotsuki]], the Mask Of The Lunar Eclipse.<br><br>

However, the island fell into ruin when the Utsuwa wearing the Mask Of The Lunar Eclipse [[Blooming|Bloomed]]. After this, its existence became a taboo on the island and even mentioning it is frowned upon.<br><br>

The mask-making techniques of Souetsu's era were lost as a result of the [[Day Without Suffering|disaster]] that once occurred. Other than that, we know nothing of the jet-black mask.<br><br>

Kirishima,

I've heard you'll be coming to Rougetsu Island for work, as well. I'm here, myself, doing some research ahead of an upcoming academic conference.

The culture of this island is fascinating. It truly stands out as something original.

My research is focused on the island's masks. It is well-known that masks are a part of the local belief system, but beyond that there are many mysteries.

The a once-in-a-decade kagura is taking place this year, so a great number of masks are being produced right now.

If all goes well, I'm hoping visit the site where the masks are made and witness the creation process myself.

I'll probably be staying on this island for a little while.

Do you remember my younger sister, Iori? She's tagging along with me for this trip. She's really looking forward to this mystical kagura. Ever the consummate tourist.

Iori misses getting to see you, too, though, so let's all have a drink when you get here.

We haven't had many chances to drink since becoming productive members of society!
