==Meta==
Anthony is a waste not want not type. He has set up The House of Crafters on several Earth like worlds and is taking advantage of this here as well. 
===Vrindavan===
The city of Widows. The place where widows that have been thrown away, widows of any age end up in India. Anthony as the protector of women and children abhors this. His presence there is to aid these women and their children. In countries with a strong polytheistic culture Anthony can work more readily as a god.
In other examples once he has established The House of Crafters they move out into the world to aid the needy, the throwaways and runaways that other cultures produce they take in and nurture without judgment. As a religious based organization they do not proselytize. They are what they are. They are here to help. You do not have to join them or mouth words to get help.
===Aokigahara===
Aokigahara Park is a wild forest north and west of Mt Fuji in Japan. In ancient times it was the supposed haunt of ghosts and goblins. It was a popular place to abandon the old and very young. Today it is one of the most popular suicide locations in the world. 
Anthony's shrine, the Temple of Ten Thousand Sorrows, seeks to interrupt this. He on one hand wishes to attract those that would commit suicide and to if possible turn them away from that. If turning them away is not possible to turn a useless death into a sacrifice. It has worked well in other places, and he is establishing that here.
The reticence of the Japanese government is due to very mixed feelings on the matter. On one hand, he is performing a useful service that others have not. On the other hand he is not one to seek governmental permission. On the gripping hand, it is not the place of the government to tell Kami what to do.
