> Thank Mystia for the info.
> Head off in search of Shizuha.

>You thank Mystia. "Any time," she says.
>You are at Mystia's Stand, deep in the forest of Magic. The trees here are thick enough that they've not quite surrendered all their leaves yet. Obvious exits are South and West

> South

>You head south, deeper into the seldom traveled regions of the forest.
>The trees here are almost too thick to easily maneuver between. Were the plant life in season, it would take you a very long time to get through here. The ground is a carpet of crackly leaves; some of them not from this particular fall. The trees still have quite a bit more to give, from the looks of it. You can hear something rustling in the boughs above. Obvious exits are North and East

>But you quickly lose interest in the deep forest and go to bother Alice, instead.
>You arrive at Alice's cabin. It seems that the doll has finished working on the roof. The front door hangs open right now. Obvious exits are North, East, and West.

>You enter Alice's cabin, and find Alice is currently working away on her sewing machine, and seemingly unaware of your presence. The dolls, most of them still carrying fans and generating a most delicious breeze, watch you mutely.

>Don't ask me, I'm just a text parser.
>"Gyah!" Alice cries, nearly falling from her chair. After grabbing onto her sewing machine's desk to steady herself, she shoots you a dirty look and says, "I'm always happy to have you as a guest, Patchouli, but would you please knock in the future? And close the door, please. You'll let the bugs in."

>"For sale?" asks Alice. "Well...that would be a little like selling your children, don't you think? But, I suppose if you need someone to help you, Hourai could tag along with you for the day. I guess I could make you some dools, though, if there are some you'd like. You'd have to animate them, though, and that takes some time."

>Alice's dinner table tips over over, spilling its contents everywhere, as Kogasa springs from underneath it. This time, Alice does fall out of her chair, whilst Kogasa dissolves into a fit of giggles.
