>"Yes, you do. But before that, I'm going to have a private word with you...for both your friend's sakes." Lead her in the direction of Nitori. If she follows, find somewhere private and proceed as written below. If not, see what she has to say.
> "Obviously if there was no hope for Utsuho, your friend wouldn't be in that chamber she is now."
>"Firstly, you do realize that, right now, the dear Kappa there is the only chance we have of retrieving your friend, right?"
>"I'll assume no. Secondly, did you leaver her in a state where she could do something to fix this? I have a list of grudges myself which I will someday, like you, seek vengeance upon with neither remorse or regret. However, what I will be considering, is how the people around are going to be affected by their loss. That maybe, just maybe, it would be better to hold off that revenge if it meant something as petty as, oh, I don't know, saving the love of another friend's life."
>"Did you not see those chambers and think 'she may still be alive'? Because if you did, which I admit I am doubtful of considering your laugh, then good. If not, the final pieces of Rin's heart may have irrevocably shattered."
>"I swear Satori, if the next things I hear from the Kappa's direction are *skcktch*, 'aaarrrrggghh' splat or anything else indicating a suicide on Nitori's part, I'm not going to be the one to tell Rin to cut the life support. Now, I'm not sure about you, but I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that there is at least some hope for -Okuu, was her nickname?- When I get back, I want a word-for-word written transcript of exactly what you said to the Kappa. Now go comfort Rin, we can discuss rewards later."
>Head in the direction where the Kappa left off. Prepare to intercept any attempts on her own life, or setting things on fire, or anything like that. If/when we find her, call her.
