>Blagh
>Run back to kourindou and fetch chen's hat.
>explain to rinno when you get there
> You're a manly DELIVERYMAN, you don't just run back. Ever. Stay put and think of a manlier solution.
> Ask Nitori if she's building anything cool.
> You contemplate running back to Kourindou to get that green hat, but ultimately decide not to. Kourindou's a long way away, and you've come this far already, you're not running back just to return again.
> Nitori smiles. "I'm making crown molding, it'll be really great once I finish."
>Manly men, in my gensyoko?
>Wait, optical camoflauge
>Ask about Optical Camoflauge
> You've spent your entire life in Gensokyo, and you are a man after all. You seem to be playing the manly card an awful lot today, maybe you should lay off?
> "Optical camouflage? That's that pseudo-invisibility thing, isn't it? It's not exactly a sham, but it's very difficult and tedious to make, and expensive to produce. We don't use it here, but we have no need. What would we use it for anyway?"
> ask Nitori what that Jingleing in her pockets is
> Ask Chen if she would be ok with helping nitori for a while, and tell that we will be back really soon to get her hat back
> "Just the usual: screws, nut, bolts, nails, washers, ratchets, wrenches, screwdrivers, that sort of thing. I keep them all in the pockets on my dress." Hasn't she ever heard of a toolbox?
> Chen looks at you, then to Nitori, and then back to you. "I don't want to, but I guess I can. If you can't deliver then I can't get my hat, isn't that right?"
> Why would we leave Chen with someone we just met? That's an irresponsible breach of Deliverator protocol. We take her with us, tengu be damned!
> You change your mind immediately! Surely you can overthrow thousands of years of tengu traditions of isolation and xenophobia with a little spirit!
> Ran would be heartbroken if she found out we left Chen in the care of a bunch of water-loving cucumber-munching creatures.
> Get Chen back on our shoulders and WE WILL DELIVER! 30 minutes or it's free!
> Maybe, you don't know who Ran is but she seems pretty important to Chen.
> You offer your shoulder to Chen once again. "Hooray!" as she climbs aboard.
>Deputize Chen as an assistant delivery person, and delegate her the task of Youkai detection and deflection.
> You ask her to perform a very important task for you. "I can do that no problem," she assures you.
> You take one step. "BEEP BEEP BEEP!"
> You ask Chen what happened. "There are youkai everywhere!"
> You laugh and set off.
> You find the trail Nitori had told you about and begin to follow it upwards towards the Tengu Village. The trail starts off wide with a gradual slope, but it soon becomes narrower and steeper as it begins to twist and arc its way up the mountain. It soon becomes wide enough only for one person, with much of the trail becoming steps carved into the mountain. It's exhausting, especially with Chen on your shoulders.
> Eventually, the trail starts to level off and you see some tall row houses. They are designed with a very open-air feel to them, with stoops and perches extending into the street. This must be the Tengu Village.
> Suddenly a white wolf Tengu appears before and draws her sword, six others follow is due time and flank you.
> "NO FOREIGN YOUKAI!" she shouts, "None may pass through Tengu Town! Return to the base at once."
> Chen seems to shaking, you assume out of fear.
