[There's only so much senseless fighting Ian can do around Kiseki, and at some point he's got to round up the others so they can make a plan. With no real communicators available, he snaps out a hasty message in the journal - simply "There's no point going into this without a plan. If you can, come to the Spirit Base. Don't get yourselves killed!" - and after that, there's not much he can do but hold the fort and wait.]
['Holding the fort' turns out to be a combination of taking care of any Oni that appear, and making sure that the first aid supplies in the Base remain easily accessible to anyone who comes by. There's not a lot, but at least it's something.
At all times mini-Parasagun will be keeping watch at the entrance to the Spirit Base, and anyone who looks threatening may find themselves being shot at with purple beams from its tail.]
