As you arrive to the island, despite the colorful array of characters and looks between locals and spirits wandering about, there is one thing that seems to be a constant amongst the celebrating locals... a couple of colors catch you eye. There is red or pink at least somewhere in every outfit, details that bring it up or an accessory that completes the look. Asking around, one of the locals laughs and explains that that's how the spirits know you're here to celebrate, otherwise you'll find yourself a target to their pranks, some more harmless than others. Time to go shopping, perhaps find a new outfit or that final piece to avoid becoming a target and properly join the festivities.

Draw your traveler(s) with their new outfit or accessory, what do they put on to join the locals ?

Locals, and tourists are not the only ones enjoying the amenities the island has to offer, the spirits love a good relaxing dip in the hot springs as well, the sweet scent of the of the trees growing all around almost works as a form or aromatherapy, the light pink petals contrasting with the coal colored branches make them a very pretty natural decoration. From spirits of lakes that blend right into the water to some that barely appear to have a physical body, everyone likes to enjoy some time and relax, let those muscles rest. Why not take a dip too ? It is part of the job, after all, to keep an eye and make sure everything is in order, the staff won't call you out, grab a towel, put on a swimming suit and let all that stress from the past couple missions wash away. While staying alert, of course!

Depict your traveler(s) enjoying the hot springs, maybe striking a conversation with a water spirit or relaxing with a close friend.

Upon arriving you would've noticed, it is not only the hot springs that are one of the main attractions in this little paradise. The beaches with ashen colored sands and red lotus flowers washing ashore serving as natural decoration are another spot the spirits, tourists and locals like to visit too. The gentle sound of the waves, the cooler breeze of the sea and the petals floating on the water's surface make a beautiful sight. The spirits around the area are smaller in size compared to the ones inland or enjoying the hot springs, so surely, you can kick back, relax and enjoy a beach episode of your own.

Yes, beach episode time. Draw your traveler(s) at the beach, enjoying the scenery, having a good time with locals, friends or spirits.

During the last couple days of the festival is when the hustle and bustle seems to redirect from performances on the streets, music, and other lively attractions geared more towards visitors to the actual traditions the locals have around this time of the year. Some of them are seem climbing up the ashen covered ledges and the sides of the volcano at the center of the island carrying red ribbons to tie around the many charcoal colored trees with the light pink flowers, replacing the ones from the previous year with new ones, wishes and good fortunes written on them. And on the final night of the celebration, tables are set up at the side of the streets as people and spirits alike gather together to make red paper boats with pink sails, leaving space for a singular candle. You are more than welcome to partake in their traditions, the locals will gladly give you a rundown or teach you how to make a boat in preparation for when the night comes. 

At nighttime, everyone gathers at the beaches, as the spirits thank everyone with small blessings and gifts before departing along with the paper boats they helped make. The multiple candles being their guide as the boats sail off into the sea decorated with the petals of the seasonal flowers of the island.

Depict your traveler(s) joining in the traditions that come with the festival, climbing up and making a wish on one of the pink charcoal trees or making a paper boat to send off at night, or watching the ships and spirits leave as the shore and the beach are lit by the soft glow of the candles and the moon.

Beach / Hot Spring episode time, woohoo!
