[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 9 1 0 1]......[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> A mysterious fox suddenly appears[n]before you...![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> Does it live at the shrine...?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> The fox is staring at you...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> You notice an "ema" plaque in its mouth...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> The mysterious fox nudges the ema into[n]your hand.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> It reads: "Please help Grandpa's legs[n]get better. -Keita"[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> The ema has someone's wish written[n]on it...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> Why did the fox give this to you...?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> Upon closer inspection, you notice an[n]unusually-shaped leaf stuck on the back[n]of the ema.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> You don't recognize this leaf from the[n]local plant life...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> Is this also the work of the[n]mysterious fox...?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Oh, not every day you see young'uns like[n]you around here.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Nobody lives at this here shrine.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I come by to tidy things up once in a[n]while, but lately my legs are so achy,[n]I just can't do it.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I've been tryin' to get this place up[n]to snuff, but there just isn't enough[n]money to go around.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Well, I s'pose I'll pay my respects.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]If my legs don't heal, I can't maintain[n]the shrine. That, and...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]...I won't be able to visit Keita anymore.[n]He's my grandson, y'know.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> You wonder if it could be the same Keita[n]who wrote the ema...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> The ema said, "Please help Grandpa's[n]legs get better..."[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Hmm!? What's that you got in your hand[n]there? Could it be...!?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]That leaf...! That's it![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Way back when, my grandmother always[n]used to say a leaf shaped like that was[n]the best kind of ache remedy out there![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Ah, what memories![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]But how'd you get your hands on this!?[n]I didn't think you could find those in[n]the mountains anymore.[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]P-Please, young man! Can I trouble you to[n]spare me that leaf!?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> You gave the old man the leaf that was[n]stuck to the back of the ema.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Ooh, this is it, this is it... Now let's[n]see here...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> The old man stuck the leaf onto his leg...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Oooh, I can feel it! It's working![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Amazing! The pain I've been feeling for[n]who knows how long--it just up and vanished![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]Hm...? Hrmmm...!? Why, I feel better than[n]I have in years![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]You really helped me out, young man![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I'm so grateful! Now I can go visit my[n]grandson![n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]I'd better pay thanks to the shrine for[n]bringing us together like this![n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> You marvel at the amazing results...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> Not only did it heal his aches, it even[n]restored his vitality...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> The fox looks on from his hiding place[n]with a contented expression...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> It seems to understand that the wish[n]on the ema has been granted...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> The fox is peering into the offertory box[n]as if to check the contents...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> It even seems to understand that the[n]shrine has received an offering...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> ......[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> Perhaps you were given the ema with the[n]leaf for that express purpose...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 9 1 0 1]*yip*[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> It seems it has taken a liking to you...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> It has a mouthful of the same leaves[n]as the one you gave to the old man...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> It seems the fox has a large stock of[n]mysterious leaves with healing powers.[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 9 1 0 1]*yip*[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> The fox is looking up mirthfully...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> Is there something it wants from you?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> You cannot help but think how strange[n]an encounter this is, as you realize[n]a fox is showing you a pile of leaves...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> You feel a faint bond forming between[n]you and the fox...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> Where does it find such amazing leaves...?[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> You reflect how useful it would be to[n]have this kind of help while exploring[n]the "other side"...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> ......[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 9 1 0 1]*yip*[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> Does it understand your thoughts...?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> The fox gestures toward the offertory[n]box...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> Is it offering its services for a price...?[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1][f 4 6 9 1 0 1]*yip*[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> It seems the mysterious fox has agreed[n]to aid you in your exploration...[n][f 1 1][e][f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> However, it appears that it will[n]require a fee for its cooperation...[n][f 1 1][e]

[f 0 5 65278][f 2 1]> You returned the ema to the shrine and[n]went home.[n][f 1 1][e]
