>"I've never even heard of such a thing before today," says Patchouli. "Not that I doubt they can and perhaps do exist."
>Your Quests are:
>When I Get This Feeling...
>Something has been dragging you into a strange ocean, and all you know is that you aren’t alone there and there are trees.
>Kindred Spirits,
>Perhaps you can make friends with that taoist ghost? You do have ghostliness in common...
>A Leaf in the Wind
>Patchouli may be able to make something to help you learn more about your predicament. But she will require you to obtain a blessed leaf to do so.

// Thankyou for returning and participating,not justby here ,Yaersulf ;D //

> The Blessing should be by One God from Youkai Mountain,better yet if one could be clooser and more encounterable than usual , be Aki or Moryia or maybe even more Anonymous but Blessing ones

> Do we have or have heard of " Special Spots" as in "Beatiful,Luscious,Enjoyable Nature" and so Trees&Leaves ?

>We could very well recover and deliver Good Leaf to Patcholi,sudden displacements taken in account, before enjoying or reaching or even discovering those "Special Spots" ,rightly so for "Resolution Priority"
.... however ....Great Idea!
At the end, they could serve,if accepting,to invite Tojiko as company and as repayment for help!
On other times, they could range from relaxing and happy get-togethers and "measured" youkai activities to "buddhist youkai training", enlightment bits with who is willfull among Myourens and visitors!
As last but not least,for alone time !

// "Youkai Mountain and going to and from for a Godly Blessing for a Green Tree Leaf(in Autumn but it is " best ") is important but not as much to do it before Stargazer&Keine Meet,with explainig in advance to Stargazer ;we could find a Green One even outside it and maybe even a Passing Blessing God outisde of youkai mountain // .

> Take off and look aroud if we can spot Sakuya while en-air-route to the Human VIllage or,BUT before reaching it or being visible from it say to Tojiko :" Wait,Tojiko, it is better that we find and descend in a lonely and as green-leafy as possible before closing in to the Human Village so we ,mainly I,can check if Stargazer while "in the Special Catctus" could "hear anything" and to inform her of Keine,meeting each other and the Tree-Finding" ?

> If agreed look and find such a place, descends into it,look to pick a Good Green Tree Leaf, check for it to be lonely and if so be ready to "ghostly awake" Stargazer.

>Land outside town, and walk to the schoolhouse.

>Landing outside of town, you attract little attention save for a nearby barn cat. It's a fairly short walk to the main crossroads from here. Things are bustling still in town, harvest season hasn't slowed down at all, with farmers, townsfolk, and porters going back and forth along the busy streets. The pub seems to be doing strong business this time of day. As for the schoolhouse, its playground is also full of rowdy kids going at full tilt, suggesting that classes are at least in recess if not done for the day.
