>"Reisen."

>The woman nods. "The very same. Motormaster doesn't know yet that Reisen has a new owner, but it will. And when it does, it won't be as honorable or patient as Konngara."

>"This splinter? Is it as strong as the one that was in Satori?"

>"Yes. But Motormaster doesn't have the same natural abilities that Satori did. It can't assault you the way she did. The splinter you fought augmented Satori's natural gift, but Motormaster has no gifts to augment."
>"You keep calling Motormaster 'it." Rin asks, confused.
>"It has the ability to change its gender, thanks to the power of the splinter. Neither 'he' nor 'she' is appropriate at this time."

>"Do you know where we can find them?"

>"I do. At this moment, Motormaster and some of its friends are in the graveyard, rather originally I've always found, referred to as as the 'mana tombs'."
>You're vaguely familiar with that place. It's a small graveyard somewhere in the southeast quarter of the city. It got that name because that majority of the people buried there are spellcasters of some sort. It's sort of a magician's graveyard.

>You're not sure, exactly. You know of its existence, but not its location.
>"That is one thing I don't know." The dead woman gives you a wry smile. "It rather depends on the amount of alcohol and narcotics they consume. But Reisen has the ability to learn enough of Motormaster to know where to find it at any given time, if she does not already know."

>The dead woman tilts her head back and lowers her eyelids, and the sense of her presence fades slightly. "You still plan to challenge the Fire Champion in her stronghold?" he asks after a moment.

>"If you exercise great caution, then you may win. And I don't mean caution just with the two Champions and the Ice Avatar and the other defenses they will array against you. The barrier between this world and Makai is thin there. If you win, I would suggest you repair the barrier there before moving on. You've already seen what one creature of Makai can do. Neither of us wants to let another one in."
>Today. Assuming the earlier attack on the Fire shrine hasn't altered Haruka's plans to join you.

>"Not precisely. The Fire Champion...." The dead woman pauses and seems to sag, the floating flames next to her flickering. "Already?" she mutters before collecting herself. "The Champion of Fire has made a connection with her Avatar, but that Avatar is not in the city yet. They haven't connected like the other Champions have yet."

>"Do you know who the Ice Avatar is?"

>"Do you know who the Ice Avatar is?"

>"I assume so myself. None of the Champions have left the city since they arrived. Either they will not leave, or they cannot leave. I haven't figured out which yet."
>"Not yet. I know it is a woman, but the chill surrounding her is colder than the grave. I haven't penetrated it yet. But I do know where you can find her."

>"Exile?"

>A little is about all. You've spoken to her a time or two while Myoren was a guest of that hospital. You yourself would describe her as fairly cold; her bedside manner leaves a little to be desired. But her medical knowledge is second to none, and unlike others in that position, she didn't seem to use that to feed her ego or to look down on people that didn't share her knowledge. She seemed a least slightly impressed by your interest in medical issues yourself. While she wasn't what you'd call 'friendly', she didn't seem like a bad person. Of course, neither did Sanae or Patchouli.

>"She was banished from the moon centuries ago, just before the first war between the moon people and Gensokyo. I don't know why."

>"All information is helpful." the dead woman says with a knowing smile, but as she does so her whole body flickers, her skeleton hanging in the air for a heartbeat before the flesh reasserts itself. "If not always immediately, then eventually."
>She shakes her head slightly. "You are not ready to know my name. One day. One day. But a poet I knew once called me 'The Ultimate Truth.' Call that name... and I will hear."
