> You take your chicken supplies and leave the Palace. Your walk back is uninterrupted, albeit a bit cumbersome. It's not that the cart is heavy, but navigating it through the city is a trial. Even using the less traveled paths, you've broken a sweat by the time you reach your home.
> Thankfully, the shrine and Kikuri are just as you left them. It would be bad if something had happened while you were away.

>Let's have a rest, and a drink. And pet the chicken if she'll let us while we recuperate.

> You haul your luggage inside. Then you go to get a drink. As an oni, your knee-jerk choice is a glass of sake. Well, you get some water, too. Oni know better than anyone that hydration is important.
> The chicken is right where you left her, but the uh...the makeshift nest has been pecked up a bit. One of the towels has been absolutely shredded. Typical chicken. As soon as you sit down, she runs over and hops into your lap. That's a green light to petting her, then. Her feathers are super soft as always.

> You've never built a coop before, but it shouldn't be too hard. It's like putting together a tiny house, and where other youkai and humans would struggle with weight, you could move wood around like sheets of paper. If you really hustled, maybe an hour or two tops?
> You try not to worry too much, and just enjoy the moment. The bronze light of Kikuri's moon casts a peaceful light across the floor, which moves to the right about a foot. She must be adjusting her position in the 'sky' again.

>Once we feel refreshed, let's contemplate schlepping out to the surface.

> Building anything takes a long time, in the first place.
> You feel sufficiently rested, so you start wondering about the surface. No one is going to mind if you go up there for a while. In fact, Yuugi would probably say something about you needing to go out more.
> As you contemplate, you feel an extra weight in your lap. The chicken gets up for a moment to fluff out her feathers, revealing an egg.

> You put the egg in the kitchen, and leave for the surface. The chicken clucks as you leave, but doesn't try to follow.
> The trip across the Underground is a lot faster when you don't have any baggage to worry about. In no time at all, you've already reached the bridge. Parsee is busy lacquering the parts of the bridge that were repaired, and for once doesn't notice you passing by. You are now at the vertical tunnel leading straight up. This place was a blowhole during the Geyser Incident ten years ago, and even today you see the effects of repeated exposure to water: the air here is moist, and vegetation grows on the walls. Dew drops alert you to the presence of tsuchigumo webs strung about the shaft.

> You keep an eye on your surroundings, and avoid incident. You think you see something out of the corner of your eye, but it disappears when you focus on it.

>Do we personally know anyone who lives around here?

> You don't really know anyone in this part of the Underground.
> A drizzle of rain starts to fall. For a moment it feels like a tsuchigumo disturbing a dewy web, but there's no one above you. It must be raining on the surface.

(That is not. It's Himiko's game to run. But you can participate in controlling Konngara.)

>Press onward.

> You fly up and up, and finally reach the surface. The sky is overcast, and the trees' leaves dance in the rain. Everything is lush and bright, to an almost unnatural degree. You're more used to the earthy tones of the Underground, where greenery is rare outside the Palace.
> There's a sign tacked into the ground near the entrance of the hole, with arrows pointing in different directions:

Quote
West: Geyser Field (DANGEROUS!!!)
North: Hakurei Shrine/Onsen
Past Hakurei: route to Youkai Mountain/Human Village
East: Forest of Magic
Northeast: Forest of Magic/Kourindou
South: Border/Forest of Magic

> Geez, that's a lot of forest.

>Head northward.

> How convenient for you!
> You go north, and soon reach a dirt path. Well, it'd be more accurate to call it a mud path. The rain has turned it into a squelchy mess that you end up walking along the side of, lest your feet get sucked in.
> The bathhouse comes into view, and you can see that the lights are on inside. Past that is more forest, an orchard, and the Hakurei Shrine. The pond looks bigger than last time, but you're sure it'll go back to normal after the rain stops. A couple of youkai dart across the orchard with their bags over their heads, shrieking with laughter all the way to the bathhouse entrance.
