Ayame: "Thanks to the clearance of miasma, the magnificent White Roc has returned to nest on top of our mountains once again. This is a rare occasion and a sign of good luck, so we are extending this fortune to the outsiders."

"Many years ago, a White Roc suddenly visited our mountains, building a nest to stay there for a while, then disappeared into the morning sky. It returned several times in next few years, and our ancestors believed that their coming brings good luck. They erected the holy gate, built shrines worshiping the sky and paid the winged ones respect as messengers of Gods. Decades later, they developed a deep bond with birds and were able to communicate with them; a tradition that continues to this day."

Ayame: "For time the being, you are allowed to enter the mountain. However, you will need to meet several conditions in order to pass through the holy gate to proceed."

Holy gate of Iori, 10m/32.8ft tall and 13 meters/42.6ft wide (bottom right on map).

Conditions:

Clean; bathed and changed into a new set of clothes.

Pure; have no evil in mind.

Good manner; in full consciousness of respect and modesty.

Failing to meet all of the conditions above will result in the gate preventing you from walking past as if there's an invisible wall in front of you.

Ayame: "Make sure you give the Roc respect by bowing three times and it will give you a feather which brings good luck. Treasure the item, as it will give you its blessing once the time comes."
