AMATERASU EMERGENCY PROCEDURES:
General:
Kiri, as a nation has had a speckled history with the Amaterasu technique, so, as a given Ayakashi created a set of instructions and special training on how to deal with threats from the legendary black fire including safety zones and meeting areas. This thought process was later converted by the idea that: 'If you're ready for Amaterasu, you're ready for anything.' As such, the procedures were expanded to include other things less specific to Amaterasu, while the procedures remained under the same title. Kirigakure appoints several ninja and civilians as "Amaterasu Wardens," or simply "Wardens," whose job it is to keep people safe and respond to threats as they arise.
The Wardens as well as every citizen are trained in standard evacuation procedure with the Wardens specifically trained to enforce it, as well as techniques to be able to hold back damage.
While Kiri itself, has strategically dug man-made rivers through its city in order to cull the progression of techniques like Amaterasu from spreading, as Amaterasu would spread along the top of the surface of water, the moving streams would sweep the black flames away, sweeping them out to sea down fire paths which had any greenery swept back from the riverside. Also, Amaterasu safety messages are taught in schools as well as shown in information booths and other locations which are commonly seen.
Procedures:
The evacuation procedures of Kirigakure are rather simple, people are led out of the city to the nearest fishing village on the coast, as well as to escape points at large rivers separate from the anti-fire rivers that cross through the city. From there, ninja, people and others board large vessels built to ride the river out to sea, while ninja wardens, in a state of full evacuation, create controlled demolitions of a specially made layered twin-dams to increase water flow and speed down the escape canals hastening the process of escape for the countries citizens in a safe and manageable manner. Citizens who flea to the nearest coastal towns board boats there and proceed to move out to sea. At sea, Ninja of Kirigakure are at their strongest, and find it exceedingly hard to be overcome by natural disaster and other ninja with their suiton techniques, not to mention granting them the freedom to accelerate their craft well out of range of following disaster. To accomplish the plan every citizen of the Kirigakure no sato, while in their student years, as school projects, learn and develop an Amaterasu Emergency Escape Plan as well as learn about the keeping of emergency provisions grouped together in their home which are light and easy to run with as part of their academy and school curriculum.
All in all, the current projected evacuation success rate of the city and surrounding provinces sits at a grand 87.61%
Wardens:
Kirigakure Wardens are non-combatants, be they ninja or otherwise they have a knowledge and command over the people in times of crisis. Given bright orange fleuro vests, they stand out from the crowd as they usher people to a safe location. Wardens are first and foremost volunteers with an age requirement of 18 in order to be considered a Warden, most of the Warden population being made of civilians who do their part in keeping each other safe and helping the country in its time of need.
Ninja Wardens:
Ninja Wardens are those who run toward the problem, people make way for ninja wardens much in the same way that people make way for fire-engines or ambulances. Ninja warden, for their entrance exam are taught to use the Jutsu Nullification technique costing 300 ryo and 1500 words, a technique which is capable of sealing away Amaterasu with enough people or other techniques which could harm the infrastructure of or damage the village.
