It's like a really good thing we came when we did! We were here only a few weeks ago, and already the vibe has gone seriously sour. Turns out, it really is bad to mix up customers like this. You'd kinda think that a demon here or a Yokai there wouldn't matter too much, but I guess on a fundamental level, Otherside-creatures and Otherworld-creatures simply don't mix. I guess. I don't know. It seems like demons can kinda hang out in whatever plane of the Otherside, so I thought it might be similar here. But I don't even know if a Fae, Elf, or Nymph could last long in the Nightmarch.
Not to say that the Nightmarch is some horrible place. Honestly, most of the Otherworld planes are pretty chill for the most part. I guess Mead, Red Wine, and London Fogs can be a bit scary. But, like, Mead isn't so bad in the less cold parts. Red Wine is… I wouldn't know. We haven't been there much. It certainly has some spooky vibes, though. It's like one big tomb, after all. And, of course, London Fog is just pure spookiness. I don't know how No. 35 can brave all that stuff. It just gives me major chills. I guess because it is sorta an "unnatural" addition to the Otherworld. Like, I like when my powers actually DO something. And there, they don't do all that much.
Anyway, the Nightmarch is pretty nice! At least the parts that are illuminated. Uh, if you haven't seen it before, it's basically one big, long festival or parade in a plane of eternal darkness. The parade, or march, is always moving around in one big circle around Takiyasha's Castle. The places where the parade's lights don't reach are where the more sinister Yokais hang out. Basically, the farther from the fun you are, the more menacing you generally are. Currently, Mrs. Hanako is being held in the Castle, which saves us some time as we don't have to wait for the lights to circle around to her. We're going to go see if we can convince Takiyasha to let us try and get Mrs. Hanako to the right place and to bring the Yokai Hanako back to the right version of Nightmarch.
