>Wave back.
> You wave. Mokou just looks on ahead, watching as the boat gets closer.
> As it nears the dock, you can clearly see the woman steering it. She looks very imposing; she's probably even taller than Mokou or Keine. Her white and blue dress gives you the impression of a uniform, although the coin tied onto her obi seems a bit odd. Her hair, especially, is something to look at: it's as red as Marisa's, and pulled back into two half-twintails with baubles.
> She's plowing through the water with...something. From here it just looks like a big stick. She seems happy enough when she reaches the dock, but when she sees you and Mokou, her smile fades.
> "Neither of you are dead," she says.
> "We weren't waitin' to be carted off," Mokou explains. "I was showing this one around the area."
> The woman lifts the oar out of the water, except on the end is a huge, curved blade. That's no oar.
> "Oh, really?" She looks over at you and grins. "And who're you?"
> _
