Purvis are you thinking Kogasa for Kanako, cause I don't know if that will work. She has faith in Sanae, right?

>"Well, if you can't do it anymore then someone has to."

> Sanae scratches at her head. Her hair is getting messed up.
> "No, no, if a youkai makes such a huge deviation from their original purpose, they'll weaken...aghh!" She grabs fistfuls of her hair. "But Lady Suwako said otherwise!!"
> "Sanae, c-calm down," Kogasa says, reaching out to touch Sanae's shoulder.

>"Wait. Why are we guessing? I know who'd love to figure out how to deal with the whole god thing. We'll go ask Patchouli, she'll probably cackle with glee at the problem!"
>"And if she doesn't know, I'd bet Yukari would! Just we'd have to find her."

> "Yes, because you don't even have your own god to ask." Sanae looks at you with huge eyes. "No one to ask...I have to go do something."
> Sanae walks towards you at a brisk pace, pushes you aside, and keeps walking. Kogasa folds her umbrella to avoid bumping into you as she rushes after her.
> "Sanae, wait!"

>Follow!

> You follow Kogasa, who is following Sanae. Sanae walks out the front door and right up to the top of the stairs. She stands there for two seconds before suddenly taking off. She flies into the sky like an arrow, curving north and disappearing among the smaller mountains nearby. Kogasa is not as quick, and has barely made it into the air before she's looking around, bewildered.
> "Sanae? Where did you go?" she calls out.

> You jump off the shrine stairs and fly down the mountain, tracing Sanae's path the best you can. You fly as fast as you can, bound north. You skim over the mountains like grass, and then you're over open water again, with your own shrine a speck in the distance. Sanae is nowhere in sight.

>Let's follow that angle of descent at max speed, and see where it takes us. If she's going for max speed, she shouldn't be up to any fancy evasions.

> You descend and fly as fast as you can, ending up skimming over the water and leaving a wake. Your path takes you north, in the direction of the shrine. As fast as you're going, the journey feels painfully slow. You still don't see Sanae anywhere.

> There are the hot springs, the geyser area, the orchard behind your shrine....
> You keep flying for what feels like forever. Still no sign of Sanae.
> You hear a rumbling from underneath you. The water ripples a little to your left.

> You get out of the way as a pair of rocks, shaped like clasped hands, emerge from the water. You are sprayed with the ensuing waves, but thankfully you are wearing a swimsuit.
> The hands unclasp with a loud creaking sound, and Suwako hops out and perches on one of the thumbs.
> "You weren't about to look for Sanae by yourself, were you?" she calls down to you.

> You go right past Suwako and keep flying. After a few moments you're aware of her swimming just as fast through the water alongside you, but she doesn't try talking to you again.
> The shrine isn't too far now. Once you reach the hill it's on, the water level should recede.

> Checking the rooms, they seem empty, but when you get to the living room you see a half-finished meal, left on the table. A bowl of rice has been upended. Somewhere nearby, you hear frantic footsteps.
> "Reimu? Is that you?" you hear Akyuu call out.
