>"So, about that Kikuri...?"

> "Oh, yeah. Fujiwara dropped her off at the temple not too long ago...last week, maybe? Byakuren's been working her to the bone teaching her magic and assigning her chores around the temple," Murasa says. She's eating her curry as if it were some sort of dessert instead of what Ichirin had described to you.

> As you follow Ichirin and Murasa towards the temple, you survey your surroundings. The place has recovered nicely since the Day of Kikuri, although it seems smaller somehow.
> You see a considerably larger building at one end of the village. It looks kind of familiar.

>"Hey, what's that building over there? I'm not too familiar with the village."

> "The temple," Ichirin replies.
> As you head closer, you see that she's right. It's a pretty impressive building, although there's no one going in or out. It's close to nightfall, anyway.

> Come to think of it, isn't this where that mouse girl was egged into kissing another girl?

> As soon as you reach the entrance, Ichirin and Unzan make a beeline for the door and disappear inside. Murasa watches them go, then says, "So...I'm guessin' you guys wanna find Hijiri?"

> The place is quite empty and quiet, but very clean. You don't see Nazrin, though.
> Murasa approaches a door and peeks in through it. "Crap, Hijiri's meditating, we'll have to go around." She very gently closes the door and starts walking down one of the hallways, beckoning you to follow.

> You and Kogasa head out into the courtyard.
> There's a small grove of trees out here. There's something further out, but it somehow feels foreboding, and you feel as if you should stay away from it.
> There's a girl with long brown hair, a bronze dress, and wings on her head sitting in the center of the courtyard. She seems to be chanting something, but every now and then she cuts herself off and starts over. The second you and Kogasa step into the courtyard, the wings on her head fan out and she falls silent.
> "...not Byakuren..." you hear her mumble to herself.
