Rewards

Ride the mikoshi to nearby Namazu spectators and use Wasshoi to excite and delight them.

Though─by some estimates─the number of festival participants has ballooned, Gyoshin continues to be troubled by ominous premonitions, and is convinced that the festival in its current state will not suffice to ward off the Namazu's eventual doom. At the suggestion of Seigetsu the Enlightened, the Namazu decide to make the Hingan custom of mikoshi parades their own. You do some warm-up stretches and prepare to lug Gyoshin to Kugane for a research excursion.

Mere moments after you arrive in Kugane and liberate Gyoshin from your bag, you are beset by a group of angry shipwrights who have mistaken him for Gyodo, an unsavory character with whom you are unfortunately well acquainted. You hastily defuse the situation before it comes to blows, and, in a stroke of luck, the lead shipwright reveals himself a builder and enthusiast of mikoshi.

The shipwright not only explains the significance of mikoshi as portable abodes for the kami, but also provides diagrams detailing their construction. Gyoshin is excited to get started, but nevertheless opts to waddle back to the Azim Steppe rather than brave the bag once more.

As soon as you arrive back at Dhoro Iloh, Gyoshin, already envisioning a magnificent completed mikoshi, tasks you with providing frippery. Gyorei will again be collecting all project components to avoid any mishaps.

With your assistance, Gyorei assembles all the components a mikoshi could possibly need, and, working together with the Namazu, you complete one. The preparations for the parade are finally complete, and Gyoshin seems adamant that you be there─though he has not yet revealed what role he expects you to play.

Gyoshin explains that you must excite the attendees by giving a festive shout as you ride by them on the mikoshi. Some trepidation at the thought of being whisked across the festival grounds by a team of Namazu with questionable coordination is understandable, but at least you will not be too far from the ground if you fall.

Faithfully following Gyoshin's instructions, you balance precariously atop the mikoshi and call out “Wasshoi!” to excited onlookers, who are more than happy to “Wasshoi!” back at you.

Gyoshin is so excited by the success of the parade that he resolves to build an additional float, and proceeds to do so faster than the blink of an eye. Gaze upon this feat of craftsmanship, and let it inspire you to make the Namazu's event bigger and better.
