>Yuzuhira departs as Celes leads you down the eastern wing of the Keep. The walk gives you a bit of time to analyze the odd sensation you get from this woman with the odd last name. Humans and Youkai have a presence, a sensation, that is distinct from one another, but this woman's presence is strange. It doesn't feel completely human. Which makes some sense, you think to yourself. A human living around youkai for a great length of time can be changed by the proximity, even becoming a youkai themselves in some cases. Celes here may be on her way down that path.
>The path she leads you down now, however, leads to the second door on your left, passing by a closed room that smells faintly of medicinal herbs and iodine. Opening her target door, you are admitted into a spacious stone room featuring a large table in the middle of the room with its head pointed at the large unlit fire pit set in the north wall. A small wood table is parked in the northwest corner, a matching table and chairs in the southeast. Apart from the furnishings, the room is quite sparse, a single oil painting hanging over the hearth, and a cloth bell pull to the left of the door. The air in here is slightly musty, the feel of a room that's only been recently opened after being closed for a very long time.
>"Please, have a seat." Celes says, indicating the whole room's availability as she gives the bellpull a tug.
