Shaken together then poured with freshly made coffee from the Shroud for those nutty notes. Served hot, or chilled and topped with a few fresh shavings of hazelnut.Cat Nap. — A pear sake muddled with cherry blossoms and plums to welcome in the gentle feeling of a Kugane spring. To wander and bask under the spring sun. Coming and going much like the cat herself.Foxfire Reverie. — A refined ceremonial cocktail crafted in quiet homage to those who walk between worlds. Gin, yuzu, elderflower, wild honey, and butterfly pea flower tea.

Coerthan Ale. — A heavy, bitter ale poured thick and cold. Favored in colder climes and long nights, simple, strong, and unapologetic.New Moon Sake. — Smooth and dry with a clean rice body, New Moon Sake opens softly on the palate before settling into a faint mineral depth. Subtle hints of steamed rice and cool stone linger at the finish, restrained and deliberate rather than sweet. Served chilled for clarity, or gently warmed to draw out its grounding warmth.Ishgardian Red. — Full-bodied and dry, Ishgardian Red carries deep notes of dark berry, leather, and oak, with a firm tannic bite that lingers long after the sip. There is little sweetness to it, only warmth and weight, meant to be savored slowly, preferably by firelight. Best served at cellar temperature in a simple goblet, without adornment.Shroud Cider. — Crisp and lightly sweet with a forest-fresh bite. Easy to drink, easier to order—common among travelers and locals alike.

BENEATH THE THINNING VEIL. — The Mori has always stood where the veil grows thin, its protection woven not only from wards and ritual, but from living aether, breathing, listening, remembering. Lately, those wards have begun to falter. Whispers ripple through the forest where silence once reigned, and Haru has felt the disturbance keenly: a deliberate hand testing the boundaries of the Mori’s defenses, tugging at the threads that keep malevolent apparitions at bay. This is no aimless spirit. An Onmyoji, long bound and long forgotten, has begun to meddle with the living wards of the Mori, and its interference has plagued both Haru and the surrounding forest of Yanxia can no longer be ignored.Beyond the mountains that cradle the Mori lies the suspected source of this unrest, a forgotten shrine, half-lost to time and overgrowth, where Haru believes the Onmyoji was once sealed. Its protections have been allowed to decay, its bindings fractured, and through those breaks something watches, waiting. Those who answer Haru’s call will be tasked with investigating the disturbances in the aether, tracing the thinning veil into the high passes, and uncovering the shrine’s truth. There, they must repair what has been broken, restoring seals, cleansing corruption, and mending the spiritual damage left behind, before confronting the Onmyoji itself and ensuring it will never again trifle with the wards that protect the Mori.

DATE. — January 25h, 5pm EST

Kagami no Mori, The Forest of Mirrors, stands as an RP Free Company devoted to those who walk between the veil: Yokai, spirits, and mortals bound by fate and aether alike. Hidden deep within the woven veins of Eorzea’s leylines, the Mori thrives where the currents of aether converge and thin the boundary between the living world and the realm beyond.Here, beneath the watchful glow of countless lanterns, the Mori opens its doors as both trade hub and speakeasy, a crossroads where spirit and mortal may coexist in harmony. Its wares reflect the balance it upholds: herbs and botanicals grown from ley-touched soil, enchanted curios shaped by Yokai craft, and artifacts imbued with the quiet pulse of the Veil itself. Every item, every trade, is a whisper of a deeper connection between the seen and unseen worlds.

❛ Walk beneath the lantern light,
Or fall to it. ❜

The Mori’s leylines act as living veins of aether, a lattice Haru herself wove to stabilize the sanctuary. They breathe life into the land, repel corrupted spirits, and guide wandering souls toward peace. For those attuned to the flow, the ground hums faintly with resonance, and reflections shimmer with more than light, they show what lies between.It is said that when one steps within Kagami no Mori, the air itself feels different, thick with unseen presence yet soothing in its harmony, as though the forest remembers every spirit who has ever crossed its threshold.With the establishment of a medium estate, the Mori will host Hingan and Eastern-inspired gatherings, from spiritual festivals to yokai markets and moonlit rites, continuing its purpose as both haven and bridge for all who walk the liminal path.
