>It might indeed. Pity that it doesn't seem that you'll be able to get in until you bring them Momiji, or find an alternate way in.
>You take flight, heading towards where you met Momiji.
>After a few minutes, you arrive at the scene. You can see the remains of the corpse, disfigured to the point where you can't really tell what animal it belonged to.
>You look around, and see a few patches of blood making a trail leading deeper into the trees.

As much as following the trail is a possible option, this could be putting Yukari in a bit of a disadvantage. Momiji may be wild right now, but she can easily pounce from nowhere; and I don't think it'll be the initial bite mark we'll have to worry about, since we know she can still wield her sword.

Yukari only has her danmaku right now; she could still fight her with it, but Momiji may be in the state of mind where she'll just ignore whatever we throw and launch at us.

...
Oh to hell with it.

>You follow the trail into the trees, watching your surroundings as you do so.
>You walk on for about three minutes before the trail abruptly ends.
>You have all of your spellcards with you, inside your smaller gap.

>Let's not say that just yet.

[Reason for it: We don't need to tell Momiji what the deal was unless we really have too. Otherwise, it may give her reason to dis-trust us further. That and towards the end of that line is making us seem like we only care for ourselves; and makes it sound like we're just simply 'using' Momiji. If we can get her into a state where she can help, we might kill two birds with one stone.]
