Do not dishonor me, or I will become very displeased. Is there anything you need to know before heading out?"[/SBLOCK]Tao said:"Killing him may be imprudent, agreed...You should probably either ask him to just stay here or else let him try to talk to Rin, depending on your preference and your surmise of how he will perform--he is not of this world, so we cannot see him clearly, as if he was made of no more than smoke and mirrors."
"For the most part . . . there are holes, and while you may call the creature a vampire, to do so here would expose you as an outsider," Yuriko replied. If asked, Yuriko will tell him the name of the creature.[/SBLOCK]Artifice said:"Hmm...just to recap--her little brother is in the infirmary there, and his name is Yu. Her mom is a vampire and her name is Shinoa. You saved them from the vampire and brought them here, and they're deciding what to do now with the mom. Plus, she looks like a woman but is really just a little girl. Got that right?"
