[Hello Purvis]

>How strong do the strings and lengths of cloth seem to be?
>How good are we at knot tying, anyways?

[Hanged Hourai]

>How strong do the strings and lengths of cloth seem to be?
>How good are we at knot tying, anyways?

>They look strong, but are somewhat weak. Which may work for you.
>Average-ish, you know your basics.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Okay, let's see if we can get this binding done right. Don't want anyone to see us. You ready?"
>Presuming so, bind her hands with the string or the cloth, whichever seems stronger. Leave her a little slack.

[Hanged Hourai]

>"Okay, let's see if we can get this binding done right. Don't want anyone to see us. You ready?"
>Presuming so, bind her hands with the string or the cloth, whichever seems stronger. Leave her a little slack.

>"Yeah, but slow your horses there. First, before anything, you convince scary lady that she forgot her charms. Then, we put on a show in the village, where you heroically catch me in the act, then bind me. I'll hang around in the forest near the village until you're ready."

[Hello Purvis]

>Nod.
>"That's a point."

[Hanged Hourai]

>Nod.
>"That's a point."

>Tear points forward.
>"There's the village up there, I'll stay here so no one sees me. You meet up with Keine and Reimu and get everything sorted out. Then when the miko leaves, we make some money."

[Hello Purvis]

>Nod, and head for Casa de Keine.

[Hanged Hourai]

>Nod, and head for Casa de Keine.

>You leave Tear behind and enter the village.
>You head for Keine's house and knock on the door.
>Keine anwsers and says, "Good, you're here. Reimu has already arrived."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Good, good, May I come in?"

[Hanged Hourai]

>"Good, good, May I come in?"

>"Of course."
>She steps out of your way and waves you in.

[Hello Purvis]

>Enter!
>"So, how'd it go yesterday?"

[Hanged Hourai]

>Enter!
>"So, how'd it go yesterday?"

>"I'd say it went well. She got confused, then angry, then really confused, then really angry."
>"Now if we send Reimu in, then you, we'll have probably got her."

[Hello Purvis]

>Nod.
>"We never did figure out, what should I claim to be delivering?"

[Hanged Hourai]

>Nod.
>"We never did figure out, what should I claim to be delivering?"

>"I'd go with the broom, because she's always burning them up. Maybe we should throw in something weird to really trip her up?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"Naw. Weird means she's more likely to clue into things being fake. The broom's a good idea."

[Hanged Hourai]

>"Naw. Weird means she's more likely to clue into things being fake. The broom's a good idea."

>"Ok then. Let's go to her house, she's in right now."
>Reimu: "How are we going to put the charms back in the house if she's already sitting in there?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"Well, she'll have to answer the door, right? If someone was already in there."
>Glance toward Keine.
>"It would be nothing for her to place them while the target is distracted."

[Hanged Hourai]

>"Well, she'll have to answer the door, right? If someone was already in there."
>Glance toward Keine.
>"It would be nothing for her to place them while the target is distracted."

>"You want me to break in and put the charms back while you distract her with the broom?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"You shouldn't need to break in, you're friends, right? Just go visit like a half hour before I arrive."

[Hanged Hourai]

>"You shouldn't need to break in, you're friends, right? Just go visit like a half hour before I arrive."

>"That could work, but it would be much more convincing if she thought she was all alone when she found them. Either plan works."

[Hello Purvis]

>"That's why you put them somewhere she probably won't look while you're around. Then you make an excuse to leave soon after, to minimize the risk."

[Hanged Hourai]

>"That's why you put them somewhere she probably won't look while you're around. Then you make an excuse to leave soon after, to minimize the risk."

>"Sounds good."
>"She's actually in the village shopping for food right now."
>Reimu: "I'll go thank her for the donations."
>She gets up to leave.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Well then, it's just an issue of when you want to go, and how much time you want before I follow?"

[Hanged Hourai]

>"Well then, it's just an issue of when you want to go, and how much time you want before I follow?"

>"Well, we don't want to do them too close to each other, so wait a while. Maybe look around the village a bit?"

[Hello Purvis]

>Nod. "Okay. I need to make a delivery anyways. I'll check back in when I am done."
>Head to the marketplace, find Mushroom Max.

[Hanged Hourai]

>Nod. "Okay. I need to make a delivery anyways. I'll check back in when I am done."
>Head to the marketplace, find Mushroom Max.

>"Sounds good."
>You go to the marketplace and easily find mushroom man in the same place.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Got a few for you, mate."
>Present the mushrooms!

[Hanged Hourai]

>"Got a few for you, mate."
>Present the mushrooms!

>"Whoa there! Those are some mushrooms! Good job with those. You've got a real career as a gatherer."
>"So, as for the price, I believe it was 4 each?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"Five each was the agreed upon price, as I recall."
