>Look around for it.

>You see a two tailed cat...
>...Dragging in a nearly dead owl.
>The cat shifts into the form of Chen who looks excited.
>"Look what I found during my outing Yukari-sama! The others tried to claim it first, but I sure showed them!"
>Yukari peers over the newspaper and sighs. "As much as Ran and I enjoy your feline instincts, there are some you really should learn to suppress... Now please take that tatarimoke back outside and put the poor thing out of its misery..."
>Chen droops a bit.

>The owl seems to recognize you and has what could be best described as a fear reaction... Though it seems way too weak to move much...

>"What if we make it better again?"

>"There's no benefit to me if I healed it. Besides, it competes with Chen, my crows, and the local cats for prey, plus mercy-killing it would put be putting what is likely the tortured long-abandoned soul of a child to rest."
>The owl shudders some more...
>"However, there's nothing stopping you from trying, if you wish... I'd expect you to be able to manipulate the relevant boundaries at your current level..."

>Focus on and try to manipulate the boundaries as we did for Doremy.

>You attempt.
>There is a sickening snap as the owl shrieks in pain, one of its wings seems to shift into a more natural looking position.
>When you finish, the owl is able to stand, before flexing its wings.

>Yukari begins clapping, "Bravo. I expected a bit more trial and error to be honest, but you actually instantly went to the proper boundary. I'm impressed."
