>You burn the talisman, and a gap opens in front of you. "So this is what these look like..." Euphemia says, gazing at the thing curiously.

> Gently leading Euphemia, close our eyes and step through the gap.

>You politely warn her and step through the gap.
>Before you open your eyes you can smell incense in the air. Looking around, you find yourself in Ran's home once more. The table has been cleared out, and sigils mark the floor again. Ran is resting on a single cushion, her hands folded serenely.
>"There you are Sakuya," Ran says. "You really did make the most of your time, didn't you? And hello, Lady Hakataku. It is a pleasure to finally meet you after all these years. I am Ran Yakumo."
>"Thank you, I am Euphemia Hirukazu, Lady Yakumo," says the hakutaku, who is shifting her weight from foot to foot. You can't quite see, but you think her eyes are roaming over everything.
>"Ah, such kind words from the prodigal one, I am blessed," says Ran.

>"Ah, yes, you did ask to be dropped off there," says Ran. "Well, it is no matter."
>She looks to Euphemia. "So, Lady Hirukazu, I assume that you broadly understand what we're going to be doing here?"
>The hakutaku nods. "Your plan is to try to have Sakuya change the past?"
>"Just so," says Ran. "In particular, we would like you devour as much of Sakuya's history as you from after the accident and before she returned to us. Thus, when we send her back, there should be no place to go but before the whole incident occurred. Just long enough for her to get back."
>"That sounds complicated, to say the least," Euphemia says, frowning. "It will cause no end of headaches trying to reconcile all of this to history."
>"I imagine so!" says Ran with a little smile. "But I have utmost faith in you and your predecessors to set it to rights."

>"Then perhaps you wouldn't see yourself at all?" says Euphemia. "Maybe, if you can prevent it, it would be easiest for you to just hide away for a time, until you pass the point when you last disappeared? It would create less things to have to weave together into a coherent whole."

>You've done it before. It's kind of like sleep, but less effective. Your body is rested, but your mind is not. Sometimes this is useful. It's just good to be in a locked room, since to everyone else, you are just standing there frozen and unresponsive. At least as far as you've been able to discern from what they tell you.
