[Also, they smell like normal roses, but richer!]

[furrytailprince]

[ Going to touch then ]

[bluerosestyle]

[They feel a little different than normal roses! And there seems to be a small glass-like ball nested between the petals.]

[furrytailprince]

[ Going to try to pick out that ball ]

[bluerosestyle]

Item: Sacred Power Fruit

[It's fragile, you can crush it between your fingers very easily if you're not careful.]

[furrytailprince]

Ah, guess that means he'll need to be extra careful about that imagination thing...

Going to keep going then ]

[bluerosestyle]

[It doesn't take you long to realize that this is... a maze.

Do you go on, or go back?]

[furrytailprince]

[ Go back to take final path... ]

[bluerosestyle]

[Very well! You may have to be careful with every step you take, because this tunnel is so cold it's not just ice-- there is frost on the floor for added difficulty. It’s also completely dark. And long. None of which is news by now, but I still have to say it! Especially since Okami will find himself slipping on the ice this time...

You fall, and your Life decreases by 200.

After a while, you see a very low light further ahead. Once you get there, you can see that it’s actually coming from a door-- the one that glows in a light blue color, though it's fading in real time.

There is another door next to it. This one is frozen solid.]

[furrytailprince]

[ Nope, he's just going to lie here for a bit because that was fucking terrifying! ]

[bluerosestyle]

[THAT'S FAIR... But even while you're resting, you can hear steps walking down this tunnel. They're getting closer but whoever it is doesn't seem to be in a hurry. They walk slowly and with confidence.]

[furrytailprince]

[ Scrambles up and toward the blue light ]

[bluerosestyle]

[If you're trying to open that door by just turning the doorknob, it's Very Closed.]

[furrytailprince]

[ sc blue door ]

Unit ID: UWDR5366 Class: None Durability: 10000/10000

[furrytailprince]

[ Hmm, going to try using that key he picked up... ]

[bluerosestyle]

[It works!! The door opens.

Meanwhile, the steps are so close now that whoever is coming can probably see him from where they are.]

[furrytailprince]

[ Going through door! ]

[bluerosestyle]

[When Okami's eyes get used to the change from complete darkness to the dim light in this room, he finds himself inside a house. There are three children sitting on the floor, looking excitedly at an old man who's sitting on a chair. It’s warm and it smells like someone who knows what they're doing is baking something. The children are a blond boy, a blond girl and a black-haired boy.

The blond boy, who is clearly a child version of Sol, turns around to look at him, and glances at the other two as if to ask them what to do. But the other children are too interested in the old man’s stories to pay attention, so he gives up and stands up to greet Okami on his own.]

Who are you? Did you come to hear my grandfather’s stories too?

[furrytailprince]

Ah, I am Okami. What manner of stories?

[bluerosestyle]

[Sol smiles happily.]

I'm Eugeo! He's telling us "Bercouli and the Northern White Dragon." It's my favorite story.

[furrytailprince]

[ Slight tail wag ]

I do not believe I have heard that one.

[bluerosestyle]

Then you can listen to it with us!

[pulling up a chair for him, and also... looking at his tail with curiosity. But look, he's not asking!]
