> Mokou stands up and stretches her arms. "I've walked away from fights with Kaguya in worse condition. I'll be fine."
> Well, Ran getting blood on her fur wouldn't be very nice...

> You wonder whether or not you can handle Mokou dying all over the place.
> "You too." Mokou waves, puts her hands in her pockets, and saunters back to the village.
> You get back on Ran and ride back into the Forest of Magic.
> 'I take it we're going to the puppeteer's house?' Ran asks.

> 'All right, then.'
> You and Ran head over to Alice's house.
> The first thing you notice when you get there is that there are a lot of flowers in the garden. It's like a mini version of the Garden of the Sun, in fact.
> You don't see anyone outside.

> You hear Yuuka's voice from inside. "What's going on?"
> "Ah, nothing~" Alice turns back to you. "...Fine. Hold on." She goes back in the house.
> You hear Yuuka's and Alice's voices, and then they both reappear at the doorway. Yuuka is carrying the doll.
> "There are chairs in the backyard, so let's just go back there," Alice says as she and Yuuka start to circle around the house.

> You follow Alice and Yuuka to the backyard. Ran follows close behind, keeping a close eye on Yuuka.
> The table and chairs you saw before are still here, so you, Alice, and Yuuka take a seat. Alice's fingers twitch briefly.
> Ran takes a seat in the grass and watches.
> "So, where were we?" Alice asks.
> "I was saying how unlikely it is that your mother would actually give a care," Yuuka says with a smile. She sets the doll on her lap and steeples her fingers. Alice sighs.

> "Because she's a conniving demon business woman."
> "That's not true!" Alice takes a breath. "It's...it's because she's from a different dimension than Gensokyo, so what's going on here isn't affecting her world in the slightest."

> Alice twitches her fingers, and Shanghai and Hourai appear out the back door with a tea tray. As the dolls start to set it up on the table, Alice begins to talk.
> "My mother is Shinki, the goddess and creator of Makai. She can not only create souls but also retrieve..." Alice puts a hand on her grimoire. "And, if rumors within Makai are correct, then there is another who deals with souls and the afterlife, somewhere deep within."
> Makai.

> Any part of Ran would be warm.
> "That's true, but she has had bad experiences with Marisa, Reimu, Yuuka, and...someone else whose n-name escapes me. Her impression of Gensokyo isn't very good, and she was already worried about me leaving for here in the first place."
