>IS there wrongness within Utsuho? or was that something we ate
>"I assume you don't mean that literally."
>You are certain it extends to you to some degree, which is why you were so terrified when the feeling first came this morning.
>"Not literally, no," says Byakuren. "But if think it would help, there are worse things you could do."
>Try to touch your non-existent wings.
>You don't have any wings to touch. You wouldn't have been able to put your shirt on or walk through the front door if you did.
> This girl's hair is a testament to the lack of mirrors in this shrine. Therefore, forget looking for mirrors here.
>To be fair, once you get used to it she wears the look pretty well.
> Ask her if there's a bathroom around that you could use
>"Yes, there's a door behind the screen to your left," she says.
>"Hmm.. it's disappointing that there doesn't seem to be Buddhist principle that explains my predicament, but thank you for the advice and effort. Do you happen to know anything about mysterious shrine in the forest or Moriya shrine? I heard that teachings of the three shrines here are all different."
>"I am sorry I can't do more for you," she says. "Despite the alien nature of your problem, I would recommend that you keep to the Eightfold Path. Through that, at least indirectly, I feel you'll find a solution. As for the other shrines, well... I've never heard of one in the forest. I thought it was illegal to build in there? I I can tell you a little about the Moriya Shrine, though. It's in the downtown area, not too far from the museum. Miss Kanako and her family runs it. It''s based around Shinto, I think it's dedicated to venerating all of the known deities. They tend to host a lot of public dinners there, which makes it quite popular with tourists."
