"That'd be handy."

Downstairs, then? 

Permalink

Yep. Hopefully Nyanko-sensei can keep it together.

Permalink

She's still pretending the ceramic cats look nothing like her, so. 

Permalink

(Works, she guesses.)

Okay, so. Ideas?

Permalink

Some - though it'd be easier if they were able to split up. Still, that seems... Likely unwise. 

Permalink

Well, now that they know about the cats, maybe they could watch the potter while the others go out?

Permalink

A solid compromise.

Permalink

One the cats are apparently willing to do. 

Permalink

Cool. Tsubaki will follow Sayuri's lead.

Permalink

Good - she has an idea for the direction they should investigate in, and she wants the others keeping their eyes open for anything odd. 

Permalink

Tsubaki can be very observant. Only about a quarter of her capacity is distracted by the pretty girl.

Permalink

That leaves her with enough spare capacity to spot... A giant paper tag hovering in the air??? It's got archaic writing on it. 

Permalink

"Up there," she calls, pointing.

Permalink

"That looks like a seal anchor..."

Permalink

She squints. "Good catch. But that doesn't look like an anchor for a barrier seal like this one."

Permalink

"Should we check it out?"

Permalink

"Yes. That's a powerful seal, well hidden - I doubt Ban can see it, actually."

"It might be what he's looking for."

Permalink

"Then we can't let him have it."

Permalink

"Whatever it's guarding is likely directly under it."

Permalink

"Let's go check that area out."

Permalink

The area is a cluster of abandoned workshops, with a large central kiln. It's unclear what exactly the tag is hovering over, but - it looks pretty centered. 

Permalink

"Is this where they used to make everything?"

Permalink

"They probably had some smaller kilns separated from this, but - I suspect so. Especially any major projects."

Permalink

"Bigger than the cats?"
