> Nod.> "I am glad to hear this. Do you know about how long ago this was? Perhaps an hour? Or maybe sooner?"
> So we know how Futojiko entered the village, and now two places they've stopped. In which direction would we estimate they were headed?
> How open was the blacksmith's work area? Was it just an open-to-the-street stall, or was it a regular building?
> Seems unlikely she'd miss them, then, if she was out there for the last hour or so.> From which direction did we originally approach the village?
> "I see. One more question, if I may; what notable establishments are south of here?"
> "What about here, within this village?"
> Nod again.> "All right. Thank you for your time and information."
> How much do we let our past be known? Do we prefer to keep it a secret, or are we fairly free with the information?
> "I do believe that would be us, yes."> Give a short bow.> "My name is Toyosatomimi no Miko. To whom do I owe the pleasure of this company?"
> "I hope our arrival has not caused this village any undue stress, Miss Kamishirasawa."
> Nod.> "That is good. Regardless, please let me know if our presence causes issues and I will do what I can to resolve them."
> Has Futo actually done anything to the Temple itself yet, or at least tried?
> What did she do to them?
> How well-known is the outstanding animosity between ourselves and those at the Temple?
> Give a concerned look.> "I suppose it is no great secret that we do not see eye-to-eye. I myself do not desire conflict, but as my companions are reflections of myself, I admit I still have room to grow as a proper leader."
