> Let's get there and quickly: the faster we interrogate that Celestial, the quicker we can change into dryer clothes.

> You fly fast, closing the distance between you and Bhava-Agra.  The islands are fairly huge when you approach them, with the closest ones being the little satellite islands.  So far, all you can see on them are fields of lush grass, clusters of peach trees, and colorful flowers wavering in the cool night wind.  It looks..peaceful.

> Glad someone's enjoying the incident. Let's go look for a big fancy building that looks about right for Chiko.

> The Celestials sure have made themselves comfortable.  Too bad you don't see any of them around or you'd be able to ask where Tenshi lives.
> Speaking of her, you decide to go ahead and look for her house.  You glide over the islands and fly low, scanning the buildings for the biggest one.  The houses here are spread out and easy to pick out, so finding the large, marble-white mansion at the center of the main island is an easy task.  It's practically a castle.

[Sect]

> Time to go *put on shades knockin' on heaven's door.
> Fly right up to the front door of that nice place. While it'd be nice to knock HER house down for a change, there's no reason to give the oarfish a reason to nag us. Plus, we're not sure if it's her home anyways. Instead, give the door a nice healthy thudding.

[Hello Purvis]

...Wait, why did we leave Yuyuko without asking for details? Just because she can't look directly doesn't mean she doesn't know things.

> YEEEAAHHH
> You fly down to the front door.  It is tall and studded with a brass knocker in the shape of a dragon's head, holding a ring in its mouth.  You slam the knocker into the door a few times and wait.  A few moments later, and you hear a tinny ring above and to the right of the door.  As much as you'd like to wreck Bhava-Agra, you're going to have to restrain yourself.

[O4rfish]

>Look at ringing thing.

[日巫子]

>Look at ringing thing.

> You look up and to the right.  It's a bell enclosed in a glass ball.  It doesn't seem to have any connections to the door.  As you look at it, it rings again.

> _

[O4rfish]

>Use knocker again.

[日巫子]

>Use knocker again.

> You knock on the door again, and mere seconds later, the bell rings.  A muffled voice calls from inside, "Hold on, I'm coming!"

> _

[Sect]

> Who did that sound like? If it sounded like Tenshi, knock again. If it's her babysitter or someone we don't know, then wait.

[日巫子]

> Who did that sound like? If it sounded like Tenshi, knock again. If it's her babysitter or someone we don't know, then wait.

> It didn't sound like anyone you know.
> You wait it out, and soon enough the door opens.  A celestial you don't recognize stands before you, holding a lantern.
> "Is it urgent?" she asks.  She has bags under her eyes.

> _

[Sect]

> Relax a bit, no need to stress out some tired celestial because Tenshi un(?)consciously makes us want to hit things. "Depends. Is Tenshi up to trouble again?"

[日巫子]

> Relax a bit, no need to stress out some tired celestial because Tenshi un(?)consciously makes us want to hit things. "Depends. Is Tenshi up to trouble again?"

> You have to force yourself to not snap at an unrelated party, and succeed with flying colors.  The celestial is none the wiser.
> "Not that I know of," the celestial says.  "I believe she's asleep right now."

> _

[Sect]

> "Great. Lead the way to her room, please."

[日巫子]

> "Great. Lead the way to her room, please."

> "Oh...if you're going to wake her up, then I'll go get Miss Nagae."  The celestial backs away from the door.  "Come on in."

> _

[Sect]

> "Thanks." Step inside and look for a place to remove our shoes.
> "Hey, sorry, but could you answer something for me?" Pull out a shard. "You wouldn't have seen anything like this, would you?"

[O4rfish]

Ahaha, she is a child I guess.

[日巫子]

> "Thanks." Step inside and look for a place to remove our shoes.
> "Hey, sorry, but could you answer something for me?" Pull out a shard. "You wouldn't have seen anything like this, would you?"

> You enter the building, and leave your shoes at the door.  If you put them right there, then surely there's no problem, right?
> You show the celestial one of the shards.  She holds her lantern up to it and furrows her brow.
> "Mmm...no, I'm afraid I haven't."

> _

[Sect]

> "Good. Well, not good, but good." Put it away.
> "Lead on, then."

[日巫子]

> "Good. Well, not good, but good." Put it away.
> "Lead on, then."

> The celestial nods and leads you across the room, and up a wide set of stairs.  Because the only source of light is her lantern, you don't have a good grasp of what your surroundings look like.  However, she obviously knows where she's going.  After going down a hall that seems to stretch on for eternity, she stops at a door and knocks.

> _

[O4rfish]

>Do we know what celestials do to ascend? And why they live in fancy houses?

[日巫子]

>Do we know what celestials do to ascend? And why they live in fancy houses?

> You don't know any of that stuff, and you've never had a reason to be interested.
> The celestial knocks again.  "Miss Nagae?"

> _

[Sect]

> Wait. About what time is it?

[日巫子]

> Wait. About what time is it?

> If you had to guess, half past 11pm.  Maybe even later.

> _

[Sect]

> Not absurdly late, then. We'll wait patiently.

[日巫子]

> Not absurdly late, then. We'll wait patiently.

> It's not even past midnight, so you wait it out.
> The celestial knocks on the door again, and this time it opens immediately.  Nagae steps out wearing a t-shirt and loose pants, rubbing sleep from her eyes.
> "What's wro-o--"  She breaks off into a yawn.
> "We have a visitor.  She wants to see the Eldest Daughter," the celestial explains.  Nagae opens her eyes.
> "Oh."

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>What do we know about this wind fish, anyways?
>And Tenshi, while we're at it.

[O4rfish]

oh shit we just woke up the wind fish
