> "Are you willing to wait around here? She should not be much longer. When we parted ways at the entrance to the underground, as far as I was aware, she only had business at a couple of locations down there, and then would return here."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Oh, she might be awhile," says the woman in red. "There's a lot of stuff down there, and a lot of oni. Especially if she goes to the Pub District. Wish she would have told me she was going down there."

[Kilgamayan]

> "That may be, but I have also made a couple of stops myself at other locations, so some time has passed since she entered the underground."

[Hello Purvis]

> "That may be, but I have also made a couple of stops myself at other locations, so some time has passed since she entered the underground."

>"Yeah, maybe," says the woman in red. "I'll make sure someone catches her. My good-for-nothing sisters need something to do today, anyways."

[Kilgamayan]

> "Ah, are they at home now?"

[Hello Purvis]

> "Ah, are they at home now?"

>"Yeah," says the woman in red. "It's been a lazy day."

[Kilgamayan]

> "Should I come with you while you relay your message to them?"

[Hello Purvis]

> "Should I come with you while you relay your message to them?"

>"I thought you were gonna leave," says the woman in red.

> "If I am a thief, what is to stop me from sneaking back after you have gone home?"

[Hello Purvis]

> "If I am a thief, what is to stop me from sneaking back after you have gone home?"

>"Well, I was gonna wait til you were good and out of sight," says the woman in red.

> What's the vegetation like in the surrounding area?
> How close is the nearest forest?

[Hello Purvis]

> What's the vegetation like in the surrounding area?
> How close is the nearest forest?

>It's fairly grassy, with rolling hills.
>You think you can see a forest some distance to the west.

[Kilgamayan]

> "Mmm, very well. What is the closest notable location? I would rather not wait in the middle of nowhere."

[Hello Purvis]

> "Mmm, very well. What is the closest notable location? I would rather not wait in the middle of nowhere."

>"Not a whole lot," says the woman in red. "If you don't wanna be bored, I would go back to town. Most of the youkai here don't like people. I guess you could go visit the docks on Higan, sometimes the shinigami is pretty chatty. Don't think the carnival is up yet, though."
>Given your status as someone who has avoided death, you're well aware the latter may not be a smart idea.

[Kilgamayan]

> Have our face twitch ever-so-slightly.
> "Ah, I am sure this shinigami is a pleasant enough fellow, but perhaps the town would be the better choice for someone such as myself."

>"Alright. Want me to tell her to meet up with you somewhere in particular?"

[Kilgamayan]

> "The public house should be fine, I think."

[Hello Purvis]

> "The public house should be fine, I think."

>"Right then," says the woman in red.

[Kilgamayan]

> "Now, what faith do I have that my message will be relayed?"

[Hello Purvis]

> "Now, what faith do I have that my message will be relayed?"

>"You know where to find me?" she says, shrugging. "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "I do not know where to find you, actually. I do not know precisely where you li e, and I do not know where you were headed before I stopped you."

[Hello Purvis]

> "I do not know where to find you, actually. I do not know precisely where you li e, and I do not know where you were headed before I stopped you."

>"Yeah but if you look around here long enough, you'll find me," she says.

[Kilgamayan]

> "So you are abandoning your trip westward?"

[Kilgamayan]

> Post edited with correct direction. Sorry for the mistake.

[Hello Purvis]

> "So you are abandoning your trip westward?"

>"Yeah, I'll put it off for a little bit," says the woman in red. "Not like I was in any hurries anyway."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Purse our lips.
> "If you are going to remain here, then frankly I would rather stay here as well, if not for the convenience, then for the opportunity to learn from a stranger."

> "If you are going to remain here, then frankly I would rather stay here as well, if not for the convenience, then for the opportunity to learn from a stranger."

>"Well, that's why I was planning to make my sisters do it, so I could get back to what I was doing."

[Kilgamayan]

> "I would not object to staying with them, if it is all the same otherwise."
> Point at the floating object.
> "Do they have one of those as well?"

[Hello Purvis]

> Point at the floating object.
> "Do they have one of those as well?"

>"Eeeeh..." says the woman in red. "I dunno about that."
>"Oh? This? Sorta. One plays the violin, and the other plays the trumpet"

[Kilgamayan]

> Are these terms we have heard before?
