So here's what I propose: X town in X prefecture, Japan. Having our setting specifispecifically in Japan doesn't limit us to purely Japanese myths, nor purely Eastern myths. Indeed, the juxtaposition of Western and Eastern legends could add a certain flavor to the story.Thoughts?

My knowledge of Japan and Japanese culture is fairly limited, but if elements of Western mythology can be implicated then I'm sure I'll be able to make do.
