Subject: Double Checking the Stores (D9, EM, Open)
Saruko have some personal rations she packed that she'll happily donate (9 days worth for 1 person).
EDIT: Would also choosing to fast (by also using the Fasting function for Meditation, by rolling Meditation/Stamina vs TN 15+5 per day of fasting) also help the food stocks? As Saruko isn't a warrior, she'd want to prioritize the warriors and shugenja to get their fill.
Is this something that becomes known to the expedition?

Re: GM Questions
For multitarget damaging spells do you prefer one roll of damage applied equally to each target or individual rolls for each target?

Re: GM Questions
Do we count as "in the Shadowlands" for purposes of spells, like Inari's Blessing?
"This spell generates enough food and drink to sustain a number of individuals equal to your School Rank +1 for one day. Without Raises, this food is bland but sustaining. such as unflavored rice and water, but with Raises, you can increase the quality of the food to seafood or tea at the GMs discretion. The TN to cast this spell is doubled when in the Shadowlands."
