Page Six: [In Person/Text]

[Anyone who wanders in the kitchen will find Light sitting at the table using his newly honed water bending abilities to manipulate hot water from the kettle into a mug in which he has added a few fragrant loose leaf green tea leaves. As the molecules move in synchronized unison, and carefully fill up the cup, the corners of his lips twitch upwards in smug satisfaction for a short moment. 

The smile disappears as a rumbling crash seemingly shakes the entire Manor. Silverware rattles and plates threaten to fall off the table. The tea cupped in his hands however, remains safe, not even a single droplet spills onto the floor; Light's power holds it steady. He takes a careful sip of the hot liquid, as he muses. The rest of the world seemed as though it would end at any moment. Light never believed in nonsense like the end of days, or Armageddon, but what was happening outside wasn't so far off from that. He switches on his Blackberry and sends out a text message.]

Does anyone have any idea of what is going on?

I agree. At the very least, if the spirits know we are doing our best to help them, they might not be so disquieted.

[But Iroh knows the spirits don't quite work that way. They don't think the way humans do.]

[Iroh shrugs.]

I am considered wise back home, but I would never admit that I know everything about the spirits. Few exist who do. I am unsure if our actions will quiet them. The most we can do is try.
