Bodies strewn across the remnants of what used to be barracks, crumbling ruins and crackling flames. Devastation is all that could be seen within the Seireitei. That was the aftermath of an unexpected invasion. A suffering Seireitei survived, with luck as its only saviour. Fortune smiled on them that day as Valliosa retreated, leaving the Shinigami to bask in the limelight that shone on the glaring flaws of the Gotei 13. An opportunity to rebuild and to improve was presented, those exposed issues no longer hidden beneath the cover of comfort.
Present Day
Back and forth, to and fro, countless feet tread the streets of the Seireitei underneath a shifting sky. The moon sets, and the sun rises once more over a different Gotei 13, a revitalised and reinforced Seireitei. The constant patrols of Shinigami and other personnel is reminiscent of war time efforts, seeking to maintain constant vigilance and enforcing a tight net of security. Perhaps this version of the Gotei 13 might be capable of repelling such an attack, should it happen again? Or perhaps it is all another facade, a comfort brought forth by the increased activity without any real internal improvements. Regardless, for at least a few people, today was a day of revelry.
For a moment, it seemed as though the moon and sun had swapped, the skies briefly swarmed, littering the streets below with shadows. The fluttering descent of innumerable and identical things, slow but eventual. Those who are waking or already awake find themselves overcome with confusion and perhaps a brief shock of fear, then these objects land. Strewn across the Seireitei are leaflets, not just any pointless leaflets, invites!
Through some unknown means, Toru Tsunayashiro has coated the Seireitei with invites, for a dinner party of all things. There are those who would scoff at the invites, and others who would grow eager with excitement, perhaps they could go to a party? After all, these years of rebuilding and reformatting the Gotei 13 seemed rather dreary for the common masses. Toru was in the same boat, feeling that shadow of security weighing down upon his enjoyment of life.
So who will show up for a good time?
