>"Okay."
>Turn back to Okuu.
>"Open her heart again....oh ! Gimme a second please."
>Get up and make a gap leading to Rengeteki's shrine, then check over the place.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Okay."
>Turn back to Okuu.
>"Open her heart again....oh ! Gimme a second please."
>Get up and make a gap leading to Rengeteki's shrine, then check over the place.

>You don't recall Rengeteki ever owning a shrine, so you make one to her shack instead.
>Peering through the gap, the shack looks about the same from the outside, though the stuff strewn about the front of the structure seems to have been cleared.
>_

[Monarda]

>"Just a second."
>Head to the shack and enter, then look for them.

[Neovereign]

>Are we going to knock?

[Monarda]

>Yeah, knock first.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Just a second."

>"Okay..." Renko responds.

>Head to the shack and enter, then look for them.

>Are we going to knock?

>Yeah, knock first.

>You head through the gap, approach the door, and knock on it.
>Rengeteki opens it a few seconds later, "Oh, hi Maribel!" she smiles, "Back so soon? ...Where is everyone else?"
>_

[Monarda]

>"I'm just checking up Ren, Koishi is busy, so how are you doing ?"

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"I'm just checking up Ren, Koishi is busy, so how are you doing ?"

>"We're doing fine. We've just been cleaning this place up a bit... I-I don't know how we'll remove what I um... carved into the walls... though... Rin says not to worry about it, but still, the thought of her reading those, I just don't want her to worry..."
>_

[Monarda]

>"Hey..."
>Put a hand on her shoulder.
>"You will get through it, i can see your love, and it's too strong to be broken by some mere words written on walls."

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Hey..."
>Put a hand on her shoulder.
>"You will get through it, i can see your love, and it's too strong to be broken by some mere words written on walls."

>"Thanks." she says as you reassure her.
>_

[Monarda]

>"Now, i should go back, be safe you two."
>Start to leave but stop.
>"Oh right ! If you need help reforming the house, don't hesitate to call me."

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Now, i should go back, be safe you two."

>"We will."

>Start to leave but stop.
>"Oh right ! If you need help reforming the house, don't hesitate to call me."

>"Um... How will we do that?" she looks slightly confused.
>_

[Monarda]

>"Just ask the Shrine Maiden at the Hakurei Shrine, or find Chen, i will also make an item that you can use to send me messages later, so don't worry."
>Smile.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Just ask the Shrine Maiden at the Hakurei Shrine, or find Chen, i will also make an item that you can use to send me messages later, so don't worry."
>Smile.

>"B-But how will we find Chen? And the Hakurei Shrine is pretty f-far..."
>_

[Monarda]

>"Well Renko's powers can locate anyone as long as it's nighttime, so if you can't find us, we will find you."

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Well Renko's powers can locate anyone as long as it's nighttime, so if you can't find us, we will find you."

>"O-Okay." Rengeteki nods.
>_

[Monarda]

>"Be safe okay sis ?"
>Wave and head back to the gap.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Be safe okay sis ?"
>Wave and head back to the gap.

>"You too... sis." She smiles and waves as you return.

>You step back through the gap.
>"--won't be able to help with a situation like that. I specialize in enhancements, not soul splitting, my apologies." you hear Byakuren say as you return.
>Sumireko frowns, "It's fine."
>"Though, that being said, I have heard rumors of a youkai sighting that has been described as several beings sharing a body. It's not much to go on, but perhaps they might be able to help with your predicament? Assuming the rumors are true and you can find them."
>"Really?" Sumireko perks up.
>"Oh, welcome back, Merry." says Renko, "We were talking about solutions to Sumireko and Matenshi's problem."

[Monarda]

>"Yeah, so  an youkai with several beings sharing a body huh ? Are there any more details ? Where was that youkai seen or how does it look like ?"

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Yeah, so  an youkai with several beings sharing a body huh ? Are there any more details ? Where was that youkai seen or how does it look like ?"

>"All I know is that the sightings seem to come from the  mountains near the Hakurei Shrine," Byakuren replies, "and that the rumored Youkai never seems to settle on one form, instead it's been described as shifting between three."
>_

[Monarda]

>"Maybe the beings are in conflict with each other or are taking turns."
>Turn to the others.
>"Let's ask Miss Reimu about that later."

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Maybe the beings are in conflict with each other or are taking turns."
>Turn to the others.
>"Let's ask Miss Reimu about that later."

>"Sounds like a plan." Sumireko nods.
>"Okay." says Chen.
>Renko discreetly mouths "Which one?" as she nods
>_

[Monarda]

>Discreetly do the same to her saying: "Both."

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Discreetly do the same to her saying: "Both."

>Renko nods in understanding.
>_

[Monarda]

>"So any news about Koishi ?"

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"So any news about Koishi ?"

>"She is still meditating. " Byakuren replies.
>_

[Monarda]

>"Hm... would you mind if we stayed the night here if needed ? I want to be here once she finishes."

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Hm... would you mind if we stayed the night here if needed ? I want to be here once she finishes."

>"No, I wouldn't mind at all. Should I prepare a room then?"
>_

[Monarda]

>Turn to Okuu.
>"Do you want a room too ?"

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Turn to Okuu.
>"Do you want a room too ?"

>"Sure. I'm not leaving without Koishi-sama!" Okuu answers.
