> Get to the other side of the field.

You exit the field. You do it a few times before you get it right, but...

You're now at the RIVER BANK of the Sanzu River. It hasn't changed much, this time.

>Inventory

You examine the Sanzu River. It's depth are dark, and not even youkai eyes can penetrate to the bottom of it. It seems to go forever in any direction except back to the flower fields. The Riverbank itself is of sand, colored a slate gray.

You know this is the River that ghosts cross to be judged. They're brought over by the Ferryman of the river, Komachi Onuizuka. You're not sure why you wanted to come here, again.

>Your inventory contains:
>Reisen's Old Clothing [Worn]
You're not sure how long Tewi had this hidden, but its not dirty or anything. It's Reisen's classic look.
>Familiar Pentagram [THE ROC]
A pentagram used to contain familiars, while it seems cruel, its actually the equivalent of a 5 star hotel in there.
>Familiar Onyx [YUMIGAMI]
An Onyx cut into a carrot shape, you're not sure how it is in there, but you're sure it must be perfectly comfortable.
>Frog Pin [Worn] [BROKEN]
A slightly Soggy Pin that Sanae treasured.
>SPACE Cape [Worn] [Unremovable]
Its a cape that appears to have space on the inside
>Broken Sword
Half a sword Meira used.
>Nyamune [Using]
Your trusty sword, it is a lot heavier than most other swords around here.
>Length Band
A band that goes to any length, so long as you can reach it.
>Red-Glass Mirror
A mirror completely turned red. It's not a good reflection for color, but good for just reflecting. Its handle is made of red-glass, hence the name.
>Silver Knives [Pair]
A pair of Silver Knives that Sakuya once used, besides the fact silver is a material well-known for its ability to conduct and counter magic, you think there isn't much magic in these anymore.
>Red Strip of Cloth [Important?]
A strip of Red cloth that Mackette's contract used to be in, you feel like you've seen it before...
>Knife Hilt [SEPERATION]
The knife hilt that used to house Seperation's blade, you can use it to call Seperation to your aid.
>Familiar Orb [MACKETTE]
A small crystalline orb, you're not sure if it is a proper container for a contract, but it seems to work well.
>Familiar Sculpture [RYUDAN]
A jade carving of a scale, You figure this one has to be a fancy palace inside, fit for a dragon.

I thought we should come here since its pretty much the only place we haven't been to at this point.

You walk around, you don't see much changing along the river bank.

You do spot the TITANIC ahead, and, curiously enough, someone who is not Komachi.

Perhaps she finally got fired.

You're pretty sure she wouldn't be. Even Yukari knows better than to mess with death, she could get away with doing it, probably, but it'll mess things up.

You disregard this thought and wave to the person in the Titanic. They raise a brow and wave back, sitting back against the boat. "Huh. Thought we were expecting a visitor, didn't expect you'd be 'live."

"S'not a joke. Really a surprise. My name is Saki, you?"

You examine Saki. She seems to be what you'd expect of a shinigami, Kimono, Long hair, yadda yadda. Her scythe is odd, though. Not Komachi odd, it just looks... reaallllyy old.

>"I'm a little surprised not to see Komachi in that boat... do you know what happened to her? Fired for laziness, I'd suppose."

"Komachi, Huh? Word is she got pulled by the Yama. Unno what for."

You introduce yourself with a Nya, She can't help but seem amused.

"Become a shinigami? Most of us are born as one, 's kinda like youkai. You're either born one or somehow, you become one. 'Cept the made shinigami are far rarer. Heard of one or two, though. Mostly legends, but eh...

s'for the Titanic? Unno, Komachi made this one herself. Mostly why she got the job. You'd have to ask her if its from a soul."

"Ah, Unno. Soon as she got shipped over I got placed over here. Rest don't come down her too often. Didn't get to see what happened to the Incident victims either. About seeing the Yama though..."

Saki yawns and pats the seat across from her.

"You're wanted over on the other side. Something 'bout a crime, either way, get in here. You're gonna go on trial, resistance will resort in force having to be used, yada yada. We've got about twelve shinigami around here. You're getting in this boat no matter what."

Probably has a bit of Komachi in her. Besides, she did say you were an expected guest.

You decide not to fight it and get in the boat.

"Good girl. Anddd we're off."

The boat starts towards the other side of the river, while Saki just lays back.

Saki huhms, a smirk on her face. "Well. The giant tree WASN'T her, I'll toss you the answer to that. The rest are an answer you need to find yourself."
