>You take Tojiko's hand, then Satono's. She tugs you forward, and you half-stumble down the alley, then turn. You hear a door open and shut, and the bustle of the human village is gone, replaced with the quiet of an indoor place.

>You are in a darkened room. Even to you, who usually has no problems with dark, the room is gloomy. A few low tables and tatami mats are placed in the room, it's simply too shadowy to make out more details.

>"What do you mean?" Satono says.
>Peering inside, you see Doremy resting on a large futon, and definitely looking like she lost a danmaku battle. The dancers must have gotten her good. You also see Lady Matara sitting nearby in an elaborate chair of carved wood, held up from the floor by a set of large and tiny wheels. She is looking your way.
