>"I believe so, unless you know about any sudden stirring in Makai?" Chuckle as if we told a joke. On the off chance there is and she knows about it, we won't need to cover it.

> Your departure with Shanghai doesn't seem to meet you up with many Tengu along the way down, and you make it in quicker time than you're used to travelling just yet.

>Let's adjust our course to go directly to Marisa's house, and conjure a doll to deliver a written message to Meiling, reporting we've had some good luck with the dream issue. And once we deal with some family issues, we'll be visiting.

> You wait in watch...
> Hourai shoots out a simple sphere which circles around herself, before it vanishes.
> She sighs in frustration.

> "Are you really gonna give up on trying on your own already?" Marisa interrupts.
> "... No." The doll speaks after a moment.
> Marisa stops.

>"She's doing her best, isn't she?"
> Shanghai nods enthusiastically.
> "If ya keep practicing, you'll probably get it, but you'll run out of energy like that." Marisa speaks. "Wanna take a break?"
> Hourai shakes her head.
> "Break or not, I'll be wasting energy. You'll refill me with yours when I'm out, right?"
> "Alice needs to. If we'd even see if I could, it shouldn't be when you're all out."
> "Then right now." Hourai stops.
> "And if something bad happens? Alice isn't home. Maybe even spending a night somewhere else..."
> "With someone else..." Hourai looks aside.

> The two are in front of the house, meaning you would have to get by them to get to it, or circle around them. Otherwise, your house is near, but it'd need more than a tap to be heard over here.

> She does not have one in hand.
> You wonder if the two of them could use spellcards of their own...
> "Nothing big. Just trying to learn a few tricks that I do." Marisa says. "But she did want to know if anyone else could supply her."
> "You're not supposed to tell her!" Hourai snaps.
> "Don't you think it's interesting, though? How would your dolls be if they had the magic of other people..."
> "I wanted to know..." Hourai returns her look away.
