Post-mortem
Mechanics diagram
Activation
  • Trigger not on record
Conditions
  • Fugetsu seeing her confirms Kacho is out of the contest (princes cannot see their own beast, but can see others').
  • Sustaining the manifestation appears to burden Fugetsu's weakening aura.
Effects
  • Full post-mortem embodiment of Kacho: memory, personality, agency.
  • Phases through walls and bookcases; accompanies Fugetsu on Tier 2 under Kaiser's protection at the Justice Bureau.
  • Authored the 'last letters' delivered to the princes, ch 402–403.
Assessment
Description

After Kacho's death, her Guardian Spirit Beast manifests AS Kacho — a walking, talking continuation of the Tenth Prince that stays beside Fugetsu, plans on her behalf, and passes through walls. 'Kacho' herself reasons she was resurrected as a guardian spirit for her twin; maintaining her appearance appears to draw on Fugetsu's aura.
