>Look at the figure. EXAMINATION.
> "Looks like it," Kouyoshi answers.
> As the darkness lifts, you look closely at the figure, which turns out to be that of a young girl. Her dress, shoes, and stockings are all completely black, except for the red ribbon tied into her blonde, shoulder-length hair. Her eyes are red, and when she opens her mouth, you see two rows of perfectly sharp teeth. You note that she looks soaked to the skin, and a bit muddy.
> You then get a good look at your surroundings, and see that the path you and Kouyoshi were taking leads around a rather large lake, surrounded by even more forest. It's chilly here, especially with the drizzle still going on.
