>You blame various unknown entities in random states of existence and nonexistence.
>Looking into the closet, you see it has been picked clean. Aside from dust and the bar that things hung from, you don't see much of anything."
>She nods in agreement, and you proceed up the stairs. They turn on on a small landing, then proceed southward.
>At the top of the stairs, you find it ends at a small landing with two doorways. The one to the west is open, revealing the empty room you saw before. The one to the west is closed. Obvious exists are North, East, and West.

> Carefully open the door and examine the room.

>You carefully slide the door open.
>The first thing you see is the red. It stands on the walls, stains the floors, soils the broken furniture, and even dots the ceiling. It is an old red color, muted and dark. Dust mutes it further, as well as the shredded open futon and the dresser laying on its side with drawers scattered about. There are also wisps of paper here and there, perhaps the remains of a lantern. The sun shines through the old curtain drawn over the windows.

>"I think it is..." Renko says, frowning deeply. "I've never seen an old blood stain, but if I had to imagine what one looks like..."

>Investigate further! Is the red stuff a, say, dried liquid?
>Check out the dresser, too. And what sort of paper that is.

>You steel your will in walk inside.
>Examining an stained spot on the wooden floor, away from the mats, it does seem to be a dried liquid.
>The dresser is on its side, the drawers scattered. You can see some old clothes among the mess now.
>The paper is old, brittle, and seemingly shredded. You could see it having belonged to an lantern.

>You obtain: Scrap of brittle old paper.
>It's possible, you suppose.
>The clothes are faded, dirty, and bloodstained, some of them shredded up into pieces. They seem to be about the right size for a small woman or young adult of either gender.

>...Oh hell, you managed to forget about it, too! You can hear the crunch again...
>There is a closet. The paper door has been shredded and the frame ripped asunder. There is a lot of red splashed in there, as well.
>None of the drawers are closed, they've all fallen out, and some have been broken into bits.
>...Did that torn up robe shift?

>"Now I have to wonder if this place is haunted... for REAL this time."

>They seem to be similar to the clothes you saw a lot of the people at the village wearing. They may have been finer at one point, but it's really hard to tell now.
>You watch it, and see a wisp of white fly from it and toward you!

>You shoot at it! Renko cries out! You think you do, too.
>You summon a shot with little trouble and send it flying, directly over the speeding wisp. It passes through your stomach, leaving a bitterly cold sensation in its wake all throughout your torso. Your teeth start chattering, nearly biting your tongue.
