> "Koishi...has an aura of death surrounding her. It is how I was able to find her. My mistress is more qualified to speak on the subject, but I believe it likely means something has been building up within her over the course of time, something that will eventually kill her in a rather sudden way."

>"I feel fine," Koishi says. "I'm not sure what she's talking about."
>"Have you been anywhere weird lately?" says Utsuho.
>"I don't think so."
>"Well, where did you go yesterday? Maybe you slept somewhere weird?"
>"I don't quite remember," says Koishi.
>Utsuho frowns. "Don't remember which?"
>"Either."

> "She looks fine, too, which would suggest against a physical malady. Or, at least, an outward physical malady. Forgive me for how rude this may sound, but...perhaps it is psychological? You seem to have some trouble remembering things, such as your name earlier."

>"Might not be an awful idea," says Utsuho. "Okay, Koishi, what's the last thing you do remember?"
>"That's kind of tricky," says Koishi. "Um...I remember talking to some kid about a week ago? Maybe?"

>"I'll hold off Yukari if it comes to that, okay?" says Utsuho.
>Utsuho is pretty tall, and clearly in good shape. She could fit either of those roles. Koishi does not have black hair.

>You can hear an audible sigh, before Koishi suddenly pops into existences in front of you. It does not take appreciably longer than that before Utsuho has her wrapped in a fierce hug, "Don't worry, everything's going to be fine!"
>"Leggo of me!" Koishi cries, trying to flail as much as she can with her arms pinned.
