Not all Japanese #ghost and #yokai stories are scary. Some of them are about flirty, teenage, flute-playing ghosts.
(Still not as weird as the TNG episode when Dr. Crusher has sex with a ghost though.)

It's basically just Tochigi prefecture in Japan
The historic stuff is in a made up province called Izumori, which I shoved in the middle of Shimotsuke, Kotsuke, and Musashi. That area is where Tochigi prefecture is today, and my OCs are from different areas around there.
