>"So, what are we going to do with her? I'd rather not kill her if we don't have to..."

> Louise floats over.

> "Makai isn't exactly large on law enforcement." Louise says. "Unless you'd rather risk dragging her all the way to Paradise, and even then we don't have proof. The best thing to do would be to just dump her somewhere. Perhaps she's learnt her lesson."

> Do we know any sealing/binding magic?
> "Do we have a way to seal or bind her so she is not a threat?  So we can ask about why she was occupying Wonderland and why she was misleading Koas under the false idea of being independent when they really worked for her"

> No

> Louise opens her luggage again and pulls out the magical cuffs she used on Mayina before.

> "I wouldn't bet on her waking up anytime soon however." Louise says, putting the cuffs on the daemon. She is in quite a state.

> "They were more likly scared of that last blast." Louise says. "Still; they're probobly scared of getting someone serious after them if they pull something like that."

> You cannot make a barrier strong enough to hold a person. The barrier is mostly to do things like filter out light, not carry physical objects.

> Luci, however reacts to your statement, and chants some words in Makaian. The deamoness glows a faint gold, before she levitates just off the ground.

> "I belive you owe us an explanation anyway, Miss Louise." Luci says.

> Louise looks to the side, and sweats a little. "Uuuu... I did say that didn't I? I suppose it can't be helped. I prefer to keep this hidden but I suppose you're owed the truth."

> Louise lets go of her luggage, and grabs your wrist with one of her hands, and Kogasa's spare wrist with her other one. She moves you hand to the side of her neck, then she moves yours away and puts Kogasa's there.

> "Exactly." Louise says calmly.

> "Wait, are you ... a g-ghost?"

> "The Makai equivalent. I'm a Phantom. Such beings are incredibly rare here. We don't have the convoluted afterlife that your world does. Specifically; I'm a Phantom because of my ability. It was the ability to Live after Death. It triggered when I... well... died. And since I'm already deceased, I don't need to worry about dying again."

> "No. I was actually asleep when I died." Louise says.

> "You think Phantoms are incapable of touching things? That Mima was a ghost of some kind, and yet she held her stave." Louise says; sounding legitimately perplexed.

> You are not a God, so your life isn't strictly bound to human emotion. That said, you can change in power slightly based on human emotion around you. You get a higher Vigor stat when around humans scared of the dark. [Basically you can fight harder and for a little longer; think Morale/Stamina as well]

> If Youkai lived and died based on the relations of their abilities and humans, you'd be as powerful as Yuuka; if not moreso, as Darkness is a Primal Fear. Kogasa would probobly be a regular umbrella considering her...  'ability' to surprise people.

> "Well, it went beyond merely going to sleep and waking up dead." Louise says, a sombre look suddenly filling her eyes. "Try waking up and having everything you knew be destroyed; and then looking down and seeing what remains of your body. I was asleep so I don't know the exact details... but it couldn't have been pretty."

> "If a native of Makai dies; they simply return to Makai and become part of it again. Everything of Makai was ultimately created by Lady Shinki, and it all returns to her." Louise says. "The exception is something that is eradicated, considered unfit to return to the Lady. Those who are not of Makai, we have an extradition deal for their souls. They are returned to their home dimension where they can go to whatever afterlife awaits them. Likewise any beings working a servitude contract in another world; should something befall them; have their spirits returned to Makai. This is why there's not many like me in Makai. I guess you could say I'm a loophole because my ability was specifically to live after death."

> Louise chuckles a little. "Simple, don't die. It may not look like it; but daemons like Mai are thousands and thousands of Aeons old. Age isn't an issue here, for Daemons at least. Most Witches don't care about the passage of time much either. Magic doesn't really age. I'd imagine age might be a thing for other races that aren't almost entirely founded in magic like those however."

> Luci looks to be thinking, then looks like she was going to ask something, but then seemed to decide against it.

> Were we ever afraid of the dark? (From last post)

> Louise shakes her head. "I'm pretty sure I wasn't killed in a fight. Almost everything I knew was lost that night."

> "Don't youkai age very very slowly?" Kogasa asks.

> "Indeed, there was a Youkai sealed in Makai for over 1,000 years in regards to your world, and she did not look like she aged a day, according to the news a while back." Louise adds.

> Luci nods, before she looks at Louise. "I don't mean to pry... but where did you die? I'm pretty sure I'd have seen you around Paradise before if you were from there. You don't dress or act like a Paradise local either, but you seem... well... uh... settled?"

> Louise is quiet for a few moments. "Well, it's simple isn't it? I lived in Vina. No-one survived Vina. I'm not alive. I'm Undead. Whatever happened to Vina, I went to sleep and woke up dead. And so was everyone else. Except they didn't wake up..."

> Louise looks... frustrated more than upset, her hands balled into fists and shaking as she looks down. Wisps of blue are coming off her.

> No sign.

> While you can't see in the dark, you're not scared of it. [It's not like you can see well in the light either anyway] You never were. Youkai don't fear the dark. Everything else does. And it's youkai's jobs to keep it that way~

[OCC: Louise's title and relation have been updated now she's not as much of a mystery and has opened up]

[Not really. She's mostly doing her own thing and is tagging along because she's finding it amusing. She's still unfriendly, her loyalty is to amusement and fun. If she decided it was more fun to attack you she would.

Also she may be a Fairy but even she's not dumb enough to pick a fight with you; Kogasa; Louise and Luci at once. She'd be more likly to leave if bored.]

> "I don't have memories of whatever happened." Louise says. "I just feel responsible. If I wasn't asleep, maybe I could have saved some people with my magic. Or I might have known what happened."

> "While the offer is appreciated, I've been attempting to do that for Aeons, and I haven't found anything." Louise says.

> "While some people say it was Yumeko, I'm unsure. If it was Yumeko, she might have Eradicated me instead of simply killing me. I wouldn't even be a Phantom." Louise says. "Not to mention she surely would have reacted to me being in the Frozen Fields, that event today made me even less sure of Yumeko being responsible. That said, I did see Yumeko leaving Vina shortly after I awoke. She was there. At some point between what happened and me waking. But I can't say for sure why she was there, or even when she arrived."

> "I didn't live in the city proper. I lived in a mansion on the outskirts. The ruins of which are still my home." Louise says. "I hadn't heard of anything happening that was suspicious."

> "They are days of travel away." Louise replies. "It's an awful idea to take her there. Not to mention by the time we'd have gone there and back the maisma probobly would have started effecting you through the skin."

> You attempt to wake her up. There is a reaction, mostly groaning, but she dosen't seem to wake up.  She dosen't look like a charred mess anymore, although she's still covered in minor injuries and her wings are still in tatters.

> Kogasa responds by spinning her umbrella around and splashing the deamoness in the face, this makes her eyes open, even redder than before due to looking bloodshot, and then she starts spluttering and coughing.
