> Regarding the tree, it can't actually drain someone can it?  Like we can safely ignore it, right?

> You meditate on Hakuroken. Unfortunetly; you're still not coming up with any anti-Yukari ideas that; at the very least, don't turn into murder attempts.

> The Ayakashi is a wicked; evil tree that Lady Yuyuko's own body is holding back; using it's power over Life and Death to drag it into the Afterlife. The tree beckons people under it; and then drains their souls and lifeforce and feeds upon them to strengthen itself. While the dead can resist it's abilities better, Lady Yuyuko is the only one you know of to be immune to it; and that is likely due to her own body being within the Ayakashi's roots.

> This is why part of your duties include keeping others away from the tree, as not only is it dangerous to them, but the tree would grow stronger. Right now it is in a state of starvation, and it's powers are at their weakest due to this.

> Since the Ayakashi also feasts on souls; even the spirits are not safe; and those that linger under it will be lulled into a sleep; before fading away.

> Roukanken's 'cutting' is in a literal sense. It slices materials, physical things. To slice the metaphysical you need a tool specifically made to do so.

> Got nothing better to do so head on over to the Ayakashi to investigate.

--- End quote ---

> You approach the Ayakashi, but not too close. Just so you can get a better look at what it is that is under it.

> You see something quite surprising, and concerning. A flower. Not a withered one which got blown near either. A rare flower known as a Netherbell. It's stem look normal; but then it curves over downwards, with large; glossy petals that are a deep, royal purple, and shimmer with a very faint, eerie light.

> Nothing should be growing under the Ayakashi however...
Tom:
> Interesting, here's something you don't see every day...

> If we think we can get close enough to touch it:
>> Head on over to wherever we keep our gardening tools and grab a small spade/shovel
>> Return and dig a circle around the flower and pick it up
>> Move and plant it at some other place in the garden we think Lady Yuyuko would appreciate it.

> If we don't think we can get close enough to touch it:
>> Try and find Lady Yuyuko for help or suggestions

> The flower is right next to the Ayakashi's trunk. You do not think it wise to approach.

> You therefor decide to find Lady Yuyuko; who; unless she wandered off in the last few moments, should be inside.

> You find Lady Yuyuko peacefully sitting in the main room, at a table, drinking tea.
