> Faintly. You couldn't tell which direction, but there's definitely something. Something like this might be familiar to your past. YuugenMagan's claims aren't complete gibberish..
> "The start. From the other realm's perspective, at least. If you can manage to get through this cave, I believe you could leave Makai. If it's anything like my gate, you'll have to best it's gatekeeper or get permission. But it looks like you already have."

> "You don't seem fine." The eyes peer around you, bringing the figure at the center around as well. "I don't mean to offend, but am I talking to a real person or just an illusion?"
> You look around again, but see nothing different than before.

> "Or maybe I'm just seeing things. Sorry if it is me." YuugenMagan apologizes.

> Shinki was a bit annoying. She held you up high all the time and didn't treat you much like a normal person. You were special to her. She wasn't a bad person, at least. It might take you a bit to recall the specifics, and possibly some things to jog your memory.
> You left Makai, which you believe saddened her a lot. Though it wasn't exactly to get away from her.

> You let your body return the hug. It does feel good... And the nostalgia is overwhelming... You feel like you should be smaller for this...
> "You've grown." Shinki separates a bit. "And so much so too. I am sorry about not letting you be as you hoped you could, dear, but I wanted to see how you really looked first."
> Shinki pulls away fully.
> "If you'd like, you can return to how you looked. It should be just like a dream. But... a little different."

> "Ah, what's important. Well... There was a bit of an accident... The chance to finally do this sort of thing and make contact with you had arrived a few days ago, days to you at least, but the chance... made some poor things happen. It was like trying to force everything into a nightmarish reality. I am sorry for allowing it to go on until now." Shinki apologizes, lowering her head. "It must have caused you so much grief."
