>Walk with Yuugi and the onis if we've put Marisa more at ease.

> Marisa looks to be more centred.
> Keeping pace with the Oni is quite a task, but you manage to get within earshot of Yuugi eventually.

> "If summin' happens, we'll jus' dogpile 'em. Ain't nobody strong enough break that, eh?" Yuugi laughs.

>How high are the onis jumping?

> A starting jump clears a single-storied house, and, when the oni have got enough momentum, you see them start to clear several dozens of metres in a single leap.
> Yuugi nods appreciatively.
> "Nice. Only two've been able to hit the ceiling back home, and I'm one of them, but they're doin' a good show nonetheless."

We done here, Bobert? I don't think we need to do much with Meiling.

Mr_Bob · « **Reply #83 on:** September 26, 2011, 07:07:31 AM »

We could finish with Meiling for full circle.
