> We don't want to string the trap, either!

>You glance down to see Aya sprawled out on the ground; she looks like she's out of it.

>You take another look at the string.
>It doesn't seem like the usual string Alice uses with some of her dolls; in fact, if it caused Aya to stop in mid-flight, it has to be have been enhanced with some form of magic or something.
>You attempt to see if it's connected to anything, but something tells you it's simply tied to the trees.
>Looking down, there is more of it; but there are gaps between each of them.
>You'd say it's enough space for you to fly into without hitting them.

>One is of Aya and a couple of tengu you've not seen before; they all seem happy.
>Another one is of Hatate and... Momiji? Momiji seems a bit un-happy; not looking at the camera; perhaps Aya took the picture then?
>You spot a third one; and you smile a little. It's one of you and Aya together; you're eyeing up her chest whilst she has, what appears to be, a tight grip on your shoulder.

>You pull out the piece of paper, but before you can un-fold it, you notice a swarm of dolls gathering around the house.
