>"Well, clearly I should be the embarrassed one. I LIVE in Eientai and I didn't realize there was a rabbit named Rise. Given you don't exactly consort with us often the mistake is completely understandable."
>Ask her more about the other rabbit that is named Rise.

>"Yes,that's how I feel on the manner. They sounds very much the same; it's quite humilaiting, really!" She seems a bit less irate now.
>You ask for more details about Risa. "Her? I think she wandered in a few weeks ago, before the snow drops really began to sprout. She seemed lost, and said she was from Eientei. We talked for a little while about various things. She was really quite well mannered."

>"She seemed to be quite lost, really," says Yuka. "We had tea, and she asked me where she was, so we talked about all the things you can find around here. Which isn't that much, compared to the south with all of its things. But I think that is fine, don't you? Speaking of tea, I am sorry that I don't have any onhand right now. If you would like, I'll go put the kettle on."

>"Alright, if you say so," Yuka answers.
>You don't have exact dates to work with. But were in the few weeks ago range, which seems to suggest they happened fairly close to each other.

>"In the sense of the town and beyond, yes," says Yuka. "Of course, I could only give her vague details on that, I don't tend to visit that way very often. But she seemed happy for what I had to share."

>You aren't sure what to think of Yuka calling something dangerous...
>"Hmmm," Yuka closes her eyes and ponders for a moment. "I can't think of anything else. She was happy to listen to anything I had to say to her, really."

>Not much. They have a tendency to get into trouble when allowed to leave whenever they like, and as much a tendency to ignore chores. It's been a real problem in your past efforts to make sure they're treated well.
>"Oh, that issue," says Yuka. "She didn't say anything about UFOs. The topic never really came up. I got the feeling she was just trying to find her way around so she could visit around, then find her way home."

>"I daresay the suit gets in the way of that," Yuka eyes for you a moment, then walks around you. "Hmmm... try to gather them in a rough circle behind your head, if you can? It'll make a nice kind of halo."

>You go along with the unexpected advice. It's nothing to rearrange them like you want. As long as you aren't between the gems and something you want them to target, you shouldn't be particularly vulnerable.

>Medicine's Hill isn't too terribly hard to find, it is just a little ways to the south and east. The wolf rejoins you shortly after you leave Yuka's fields.
>You find Medicine laying there where you left her. It doesn't even look like the snow you knocked from her has shifted much. "Hello again," she says.
>The wolf sniffs at her cautiously.
