You are Captain Kusajishi Riku, commanding officer of the Seireitei's Ninth Division and current point of contact with the spiritual realm of Valhalla. What little diplomatic “pull” you may have with the locals however is insufficient to talk your way out of the current situation though: a mirror image of your companion Shihōin Yoruichi is thought to have been responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Valhallan soldiers just within the last few days, seemingly part of a wider rebellion that has destabilized the political order here.
Last night you also learned something new about the region you've found yourself in: namely that the lack of powerful fighters here is not due to some sort of deficiency with the local inhabitants, but rather that your fellow shinigami's power is aberrant. The Soul Society has a higher density of spiritual particles, allowing for high-powered mutants such as yourself and the other Captains and Lieutenants to exist where such beings would be impossible elsewhere. This also suggests that in all likelihood Yoruichi's doppelganger hails from the Soul Society just as you do.
It also came to your attention that your progress towards resolving the Valhallan rebellion is being monitored very closely by the local deities, adding another layer of complexity to the situation.
“So this is gonna be pretty easy, you think?” Yoruichi muses as you put the final preparations on your morning meal: sausage, eggs, and toast with two einspänners in glasses included in the furnishings for your temporary quarters.
“I doubt anyone's ever needed to disguise their reiatsu around here,” you reply, passing her the glass of espresso and whipped cream. “It's more a problem of finding your clone, who's presumably got your skills at stealth.”
“That's going to be a tough order,” she admits. “Not to sound conceited or anything. You figure we could draw her out somehow?”
