Face, meet fist. This is Akyu Quest!

>Retrieve any items left in the silk netting.

(You know interesting thing: was reading about spider silk in Organic Chemistry. Said the stuff was stronger than steel, more flexible than nylon, and had more impact resistance than kevlar.)

>Make puppy eyes to Fightest.

>Make puppy eyes to Fightest.

> You re-equip your belongings. Some unruly strands of web hang here and there, and no amount of batting and brushing seems to get them off.
> Puppy eyes noted. Whaddaya want? Give me a context, man!

> Do we know of a "hellcrow" at all?

> "I see...  So she has the crow under her command?"

> You answer your own question, but, for clarity's sake, remind yourself that Cirno has described the guardian of the underground reactor as a crow Youkai.
> "Her will, her command. Great power, great power, not hers to possess!"

[Hello Purvis]

>"Tell me about the one with the broom, please?"

[Fightest]

>"Tell me about the one with the broom, please?"

> "Strong. So strong. Did not fight, just flung me, flung me like a broken doll."
> That narrows it down sufficiently. Absurd strength and broom point to Marisa, the human witch who lives in the Forest of Magic. She's well-known as a bit of a troublemaker, but her heart's said to be in the right place, and always a good laugh at parties. She likes to vary her wardrobe, but always sticks to her trademark black-and-white theme. Her favourite number is 5, and she dislikes damp places.

[Hello Purvis]

>"...What is she doing down here? And, I'm so sorry, I don't know what's gotten into her..."
>Well actually, the whole tournament thing...
>"I'm sorry, you clearly don't deserve this. Did any of them say...anything?"

Is there a way to convince her to weave us some spider silk armor?

B-B-But that would be a HUGE favor to ask of a distrusting, previously injured youkai we just met to painstakingly weave a custom-made spider silk over-coat. And think of how sticky it would be. We'd be able to scale walls way easier with some creative hand coverings. Not to mention it comes out of her butt. Ugh, no thank you.

[Hello Purvis]

And we have no idea how good of a tailor she is. Or how long it would take. Or how much she'd need to eat to make all that silk.

And given a lot of the damage we've deal with is impact based or energy based, it wouldn't be that useful anyways.

> "Said nothing, said nothing, only fighting, fighting, fighting."

Not to mention it comes out of her butt. Ugh, no thank you.

> Well, the good news is that she appears to be able to make silk strands out of thin air - you saw her stretching a few between her hands where there was none previously when she was still hostile.

> "Down, down, until you can descend no more. Down past the oni, down past the shut-in, down past the burning flows of liquid earth, down to the core. One way, one way, one way."
> Rinnosuke would certainly buy them at a high price.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Alright, thank you. I would like to move on, but is there anything else you need before I do?"
