Godric's day started off in the same way as every other morning had since his arrival in the village Hidden in the Clouds had, after cleaning up and eating he headed out the door. His first stop was the Thunder Temple, he had worked out an arrangement with the caretakers of the Temple, they would allow him to come meditate each morning and he would help them maintain the cleanliness of it, and in Godric's eyes it was the perfect arrangement. As he arrived at the temple he saw the broom was already waiting for him in the usual spot so he went ahead and started his daily routine and began sweeping the floor of the main meditation hall, once he was done with that he grabbed the window cleaner and a towel and cleaned all the windows and then started dusting the different antiques around the hall, with these he took the most time mostly due to the fact that as part of their arrangement he had to ensure that nothing got broken or misplaced. Once his cleaning was done he took his Normal spot in front of the Thunder idol and began his meditation like he had done everyday he had come to the Temple, he was not sure what it was exactly that drew him to the Temple but he did know that he always felt energized when he left as if the Temple recharged his batteries. He had first started coming to the Temple in the late afternoon after a day of training to relax and unwind from the day but when he started noticing that he had more energy when he left the Temple than he did when he woke up he decided to start making two trips to the Temple, once in the morning before he trained and then once after he had finished his training for the day and it had become a ritual of sorts for him. As he sat down crossing his legs and began his meditation his mind slowly began to clear and all the worry and concern he had started to drift away as he went deeper and deeper into his meditation.
The tapping in his head broke his concentration and stopped his meditation, the Temple didn't have a clock but looking out the window he could see the sundial and judging by the shadow cast from the sun he would say he had only been meditating for an hour or two, "Damn noise, always interrupting me" he mumbled under his breath as he started to stand. Despite the sort meditation Godric felt more energized than he was when he had arrived and was ready to start his training for the day. Godric knew that it was the electrified atmosphere of the Thunder Temple that energized him he could even feel the energy surging through his chakra, he could not help but come to the conclusion that it was his natural affinity to lightning that helped to energize him so much and that was the reason he has been drawn to the Temple since the day he first stepped through the gates of Kumogakure. On his way out the door of the main hall Godric stopped and lit one of the insense that was sitting there, one of the caretakers had told him when he first came to the Temple that it brings luck. Godric wasn't much for believing in things he could not see luck being at the top of the list, but he figured it wouldn't hurt and if by some strange coincidence it did actually bring him luck than that would be great too.
As he left the Temple he was planning on going straight up to the battle plateau but then his stomach growled and he realized it was nearly lunch time and headed down the pathway to the shops to get some food. As he neared the marketplace he heard a lot of loud remarks coming from around the corner ahead of him, "did you see that" he heard a woman ask, "that was amazing" another woman answered, "I've never seen anything like it" came the deep voice of a man, followed by very loud cheering and request for more, as he drew nearer to the corner his interest was peaked over the limit he had to know what it was that everyone seemed to be talking about what was so amazing what could possibly draw so much attention.
