The new year! The Spring Festival, the one time of year when the massive bureaucracy of Locus Seiryuu takes the day off, and the streets are filled with revelry. Children run with sparklers, set off firecrackers, and occasionally lose a thumb, but have them returned quickly back to their hands. Thank god for Medical Science. All the Powers of Seiryuu, this one night, are expected to return to join in the celebration, and enjoy the grand night. The flowers of the forest around are full of gorgeous blooms, the air is a perfect spring day, cool, crisp, and full of the sweet scent of returning life that reaches its peak during this festival. All of the stores take advantage of this festival to simultaneously ratchet up the prices and give everyone a generous discount- It manages to even out, and they are seeing their usual superb business, as the appointed hour arrives, and the Powers have finally had the opportunity to arrive.<br/><br/>Seiryuu has taken his favorite form as a cheerful young man in the bloom of life, a teenager who is living it up during the festival in his honor, occasionally hitting on women, and showing surprising levels of acceptance about women occasionally going pale and departing conciousness when it dawns on them who's winking suggestively.<br/><br/>There are many entrances to the Locus, from the numerous alleys that connect to every city where there are Chinese immigrants in any substantial amount, the beautiful Jade gateway to Locus Suzaku, and of course, the international airport. Drunk businessman, bureaucrats who have spent long years mastering getting drunk as quickly as possible, are walking through the streets, chatting cheerfully, and watching the pretty girls.<br/><br/>It is a good day.
