> Go up the stairs.
> Make a mental note to pick up a few things before we leave.
>Going up would be silly as the staircase leads down. Besides, there's a ceiling in the way.
>You note to borrow some of Ellen's stuff before you go. She won't notice if a few things are missing, right?
>Ellen guides you down the stairs and leads you into another room, she then opens a door along the right wall, revealing a smaller room. In it, you see Medicine, tied to a chair, as well as Hourai, tied to a doll-sized chair.
>The smaller doll looks relieved when she sees you. Medicine, on the other hand, looks particularly pissed...
>"Are you ready to play nice?" Ellen asks.
>"Release me now, or else. This is your last warning." Medicine scowls
>The girl sighs, before looking to Hourai, "What about you, you aren't going to try to kill yourself again if I release you, are you?"
>"It wouldn't have killed me..." Hourai frowns.
