> Shrug.
> Well, we tried...
> Take flight and head back to the island where Tenshi was resting.

>You did make the effort.
>You head eastward, and soon find the forested isle, floating near Kourindou still. The crimson flag still flies over the peak on it, and you can see a few faeries flitting about over the tree line, going about their business. To the west, you notice the sun descending toward the horizon, it will be sunset before too long.

>You return to the village, and see that a fair amount of the fallen debris has been picked up.
>As you walk inside, you see Tenshi sit up from her futon and look toward you. "Oh there you are." Her eyes fall toward your purse, where the Sword of Hisou is rather comically sticking out. "Good, you still have it."
>"I told you that we didn't have it," says Sakuya, glancing toward Tenshi from her futon. Looking back toward Tenshi, you notice there is a knife in the side wall.
>"Yeah yeah, fine," says Tenshi as she sits up. "Don't think you're gonna get so lucky next time."

> "Ladies, please. I apologize that my departure with this sword caused such confusion, but there is no need for further hostilities. Lady Scarlet and I have come to a peaceful agreement, which she has departed to write up for proper ratification right now."
> Look at Sakuya in particular.
> "Which means that you are to continue recuperating and let your mistress and Miss Knowledge take care of any further business Bhava-Agra may have with Volatilis Scarlet Regnum."
> Give a small smile.
> "Your mistress would have my head if she found that I was letting you conduct business in your current state."

>Sakuya nods. "She stopped here for a moment to mention that Tenshi was free to go, and things had been resolved. She had not mentioned the part about Patchouli though. I suppose that cannot be helped."

> Is our hat visible anywhere?

>"Patchouli doesn't even have a position," says Sakuya, with a brief lopsided grin. "But I understand. Hopefully I'll recover quickly enough to be allowed to assist."
>Your hat is still beside Sakuya.

>"Mostly better," says Tenshi. "Just a bit sore, pretty much what happens when you take a beating in danmaku."
>"Significantly better than I look," Sakuya says. Tenshi shakes her head a little; Sakuya either does not notice or ignores it.

There are also some things I wish to discuss with you along the way. Please, come with me."
