I'm not putting the Eientei trip off for this. Kotohime acting funny has been a notable plot point for the past six or seven threads; part of the reason I want to go there is to drag her with us, but she refuses to believe there's anything wrong with her, so a different approach is necessary.

>Tenshi is indeed still here; she just collected the money. However, she barely notices your thanks, as she is presently dealing with a group of farmers looking for their next round.
>You head outside. It is a lovely night out, cool and clear. Most interesting, however, is a flash of light in the horizon to the southeast.
