they can. it's a little complicated without going into hundreds of years of history, basically many clans had various territories in Japan that fell under their jurisdiction there was an event that happened that shook that up and put Japan on a different course of history, and a lot of those families either lost power or just disappeared altogether we study this in school where I'm from since it's an important part of history
some are still around but depending have moved or expanded their area of influence but it doesn't directly affect most people since it's all mostly under the surface or so I've heard
[ there is no one alive to contradict this, to say that she is not kuruko anymore. though, a cold sensation drains down through her body, starting in her head, as she realizes — how many of them might be here? could her people be in this place, also restless? could she see them again? ]
[ Kuruko... she's not familiar with that one. But she's somewhat divorced from the fight for relevancy and control between the various families, so that might be part of it. ]
that's right. nice to meet you Mavis how do you know Kaito?

[ Oof, okay maybe that wasn't the best thing to say. Hmm. ]
have you been out to Serene much? not the Oakwoods but just past the library I bet there are some places off the main path that might be kind of peaceful
as peaceful as anywhere in the Netherworld can get
[ There are the Hinterlands too, but that place is meant to be more of a one-way trip sort of destination. ]

[ no one around, no one whose thoughts could suffocate her. ari was right: she isn't used to it. ]
