Or maybe v5.4. Either would work.
The important part is that we seem to already be getting hints to the story we'll be getting for the Mare Jivari. There's 2 ways it could go but I have a feeling we're seeing so much of our good buddy Enjou/Sanka/now Kokuchuu because he'll also be part of that story. I'm leaning more towards this story happening in v5.6 because that would normally be the time we'd get the Archon's Second Character Quest which is also a big story. It could be that Enjou/Sanka/Kokuchuu might play a larger role in Natlan than in the past with Inazuma (actually Enkanomiya) and the building blocks of that are being seen here. Previously Enjou took on the name Sanka for the Kinich quest where he was looking into the Turnfire. Back in Enkanomiya he was looking for the Byakuyakoku Collection a book series that revealed the planet's past which was being hidden by Celestia. Now here he is trying to find out the location of a place that mysteriously disappeared just like Enkanomiya had.
Of course it's difficult to know now what his goal is. Back then it was easy to say the Abyss Order that he belonged to was up to no good and he even showed that by setting up the events that were leading to harm for the vishap (dragon descendents) of Enkanomiya. We were clearly on opposite sides back then. He even attacked up for both of his appearances there. But when he called himself Sanka he actually ended up saving a dying Saurian. (also a dragon descendent) Now here he is possibly using a dude to get what he wants but I have a feeling it'll actually lead to a good ending for the guy. So what if Enjou/Sanka/Kokuchuu's actual goal with finding the Mare Jivari is beneficial? Or at least what passes for beneficial from a guy that attacked us twice and tried to poison the vishaps. Maybe we even end up on the same team and the story will play out in Mavuika's Character Quest which will lead us to fighting the big shadow monster mountain thing brought up in today's story.
Anyway my guess is that'll happen in v5.6. Or maybe we'll get the area in v5.6 and then the story happens in v5.7. For now please enjoy the video and I'll see you for the conclusion of this event on Monday.
