> Take a look around then look for our little Hieda.

> You return the smile and enter the makeshift village in search of Akyuu.
> No one is up at this hour.  There are no lights on in the tents, and no fire lit between them; all the light is around the edge, and for good reason.  If a fire were to start here, it would be a disaster.  You see the Myouren Temple, still in ship form, floating on the water.  It's not tethered to anything, but you do see a chain leading down into the water.  Most likely an anchor.

Pretty sure that's the answer to whether Akyu's asleep. Should we keep looking, or ...?

It'd be too troublesome to go searching through the tents without any light sources anyways.

> No sense in waking her up at this hour, since she might not know any more of Marisa's intentions. Let's take off towards Rinnosuke's. If she's not lurking there then he might know where she is. Plus we need to pay off the swimsuit and get a light source anyways.

> You decide to leave Akyuu be, and lift off into the skies.
> This time, you fly away towards the Forest of Magic.  Locating Kourindou is no easy task, as it is still dark out, but you do eventually spot it in a tiny clearing in the middle of the woods.  If anything, you'll finally get that swimsuit paid off instead of having it put on your tab.

> You fly down to the shop.  Getting closer, you see that it's not dark inside; curtains have merely been drawn.  You can see light coming from under the door.  The sounds of talking and clattering are coming from inside.  There's no way Rinnosuke would be asleep if there was such a commotion going on inside.

>Go inside, Reimu-style.
>We do have the money for the swimsuit, right?

> You walk in like you own the place.
> Of course you have money for the swimsuit.  It wasn't that expensive.
> You walk inside to see that the floor is, by some miracle, mostly dry.  The goods that Kourin had piled up on tables to keep from getting wet have been organized and even moved to shelves.  Even chairs have been set up to hold boxes that won't fit on any other surface.  Kourin is not at the front counter; instead, it is Tokiko you see first, mopping away at the floor.  This is the first time you've seen this place so clean, but you suspect as soon as the incident is over and everything is dry, then this place is going to go right back to its messy self.
> Most of the activity seems to be coming from the back of the shop.  For one thing, it smells good back there, like someone's cooking something.  A few other youkai girls have camped out near the door leading to the back, as if they're waiting for something.
> Tokiko looks up from her mopping, sees you, and jumps.

>Browse at the things on display while talking.

> "Yeah.  They're guests," Tokiko says.
> You take a look at the things that have been displayed around the store.  The weird, box-shaped shikigami are all gathered on one table, and boxes of clothes have been piled on another--probably to be displayed later.  A box labeled "antiques" is on the chair next to it, and upon looking inside you see a jumble of lamps, ornaments, empty bottles, and what you think are cameras, covered in dust.  The shelf behind the front counter contains the main display of items, all arranged neatly.  On the counter itself is another box, and next to that is a sewing kit.  Jars of various colorful things are clustered off to the side, along with a heavy-looking, dog-earred book.

> "No problem at all...I think.  That'll be 40μ," Tokiko says.
