Traditionally 'high noon' was when the sun hit the highest point in the sky. May that's it?

Exactly. But my unrepentant, unaddenda'd first printing of the Core rules says simply 'noon'.

FYI there's a calendar for that. For that week (November 19-24, 2007) high noon is at 11:36 am, give or take two minutes. While the characters are unlikely to know that, they'll notice sunrise and sunset, and the full moon that I failed to notice.

Sunrise: 6:31am
Solar noon: 11:36am
Sunset: 4:41pm
Full Moon: 6:31am

So players--it's what time in the morning now? 11:30ish?

And how long will Sunae be meditating?

Sunae will meditate until one of two things happens...

1) Someone comes by to talk to her (Celestial, Superior or human)

2) She is called for that meeting

I'm good with what ever times- all Zahirah had in mind was checking on Ryuki

I know, which is why I'm making a deal of the time. Ryuki that morning at 7 am is worlds different from Ryuki that day at noon. Think about the last few days, especially last night, from his perspective.

Well she ran into Marty so I'm assuming since he sent her on her way that it would be at a time that Ryuki wouldn't be too annoyed with her.

Fair enough. 7 am it is.

Brainstorming a Part Two, so to speak. Last time I did a lot of improvising--this time I've got definite ideas and it's just a question of tying them together. One thing I didn't get to play through with MHC is getting hugely expanded.

When MHC proper looks like it's near to ending, I'll start a new thread and open it up to new players. In the current draft (it could change) the action begins about two months after the current story ends.

Have a DP involved, still trying to sort out which one it is.

Tentative title is 'Pacific War' because it takes place in L.A., San Francisco, possibly Tokyo and/or Nagasaki and possibly eastern Russia. Seoul should be in there just because that's where I am IRL, but it hasn't jumped up and bit me yet.

Just reread L. Umbrarum, yep yep that will work nicely.

There's one thread already in motion, actually, but it's been buried in more important things. Like archangels.

I've been lurking this game for ages, and would be into playing a new one.
