>Keep pace with Ran. Float if necessary

> You float in order to keep up with Ran. She's moving pretty fast.
> In the distance, you see the threads spiral down into some sort of dome shaped web. They're woven so intricately and closely that it's hard to tell exactly what it is. There are a lot of eyes here, blinking and staring at you and Ran. The mirror jumps from one thread to another, still oblivious.

>Examine the dome for what seems like a proper entrance.

> You and Ran fly over to the dome and start looking for an entrance. Up close, the sphere is even bigger than you imagined. You can barely even see inside.
> At the top of a dome is a single hole, funneling straight into it.

>Can we see anywhere, or are the eyes and connecting lines so thick that they are practically walls?

> It's huge in here. A huge, expansive dome, like a fishbowl. It's perfectly round. The threads connect so thickly here they're almost like walls, but you can still make out how detailed and complicated the patterns are. Thousands of eyes dots the threads, all of them different shades of purple. You notice someone curled up at the very bottom, but it's so far away that it's hard to make out.
> Ran flies in after you and looks down.
> Her eyes widen. "Yukari-sama is down there."

>Go down.

> You float down towards the bottom of the dome. As you get closer, it's easier to distinguish the figure at the bottom.
> It's a woman with long, golden hair, wearing a frilly purple dress with a design similiar to the threads that make up the dome itself. Her mob cap is also frilly, with a red ribbon tied on the front of it. Only when you approach her to you realize that the threads ultimately connect to her.
> She's sleeping.
> Ran floats down as well but says nothing.

>Whisper: "Should we wake her? This stuff looks important."

> You quietly ask Ran if you should wake her up.
> "She looks like she's hibernating," Ran whispers back. "You can try and wake her, but she's a heavy sleeper."

> Get down there and shake her awake.

> Hibernating?!

> "Wait, you can't just--"
> Yukari doesn't open her eyes, but she mumbles incoherently and slaps you away with her arm.
> Ran sighs.

Inventory:

> Foreign-looking dress (currently worn)
> Scarf (currently worn)
> x1 newspaper fragment
> It has a missing ad for Komeiji Koishi on it. You'd better hang onto this for reference.
> x1 bottle of spring
> It's a sealed bottled with a pretty flower inside. It's a one-use item that doubles as an attack--a strong gust of wind--and a way of being able to produce flowers.
> x1 seeing stone
> A triangular stone with a circle inscribed in it. If you hold it up to your eye, you can see things that are normally invisible.
> ☼3000
> Part of the reward you got for getting Koishi home safely.
> x11 stones
> They're not magical or anything, but that doesn't mean you can't throw them at people.
> x1 Claw Hammer
> Patchy let you have it after you defeated Lumia.

> "Usually with food, or by shaking her, but when she's hibernating? Those things won't do anything."

> "So, she's just gonna sleep? For how long?"

> "Until winter's over." Ran floats over and kneels down next to Yukari. "She has woken up during that period, but it's not even winter yet."
> She grimaces. "Maybe if I threw her against the wall...?"
