Somewhere in Chibi Town

[Feng]

Inside is the Codec, as well as Blaze's advance payment. One can hope that Blaze had taking the precaution first, otherwise the case flies out of the briefcase, cascading down on the sleepy village below.

::Mr. Exorcist? Are you there?::

[Blaze]

Blaze was indeed careful opening it and takes out the Codec.

"You're attempt to kill me failed."

[Feng]

::Ah, Mr. Exorcist there you are. I forgot to warn you that the Mail Portal connecting from my office tends to backfire occasionally. Why, just last week I accidentally wound up in Shanghai! Crazy non? Anyways I do hope you were able to arrive to your destination safely, without any inconvenience.:: ^_^

[Blaze]

Blaze descends slowly to the ground.

"... yeah, no trouble."

[Feng]

::Excellent! Anyways you should be outside the entrance to the subterranean Chibi district. The shaman you are looking for is located in the Penguin Sector. You'll know when you have arrived by all the shrines with penguin effigies and the thick scent of essence.::

[Blaze]

Blaze lands and enters the Chibi sector.

"Got it. Anything else?"

[Feng]

::I must warn you that not all Chibi are quite welcoming to outsiders:: says Bones to Blaze, as she descends down a long stone stairway that leads into the under city. ::I would strongly advise that you avoid the slums as much as possible. Also whatever you do, do not eat the-::

"YOU THERE!" shouts a voice, interrupting Bone's communication with Blaze. "Lady with the large guns! How would you like to sample a rare Chibi delicacy?"

[Blaze]

Blaze scowls and looks around.

"Who said that?"

[Feng]

"Down here love" says the voice, the source of which is tugging at her skirt.

[Blaze]

Blaze looks down!

"Don't call me love..."

[Feng]

Blaze sees a Chibi vendor pressing a fried lizard tail on a skewer close to her face!

"Sorry about that love," says the Vendor. "Anyways might I recommend trying some fried Salamander tail on a stick? Its a rare treat fresh from the underworld!"

[Blaze]

"No thanks."

Blaze tries to push past the Chibi.

[Feng]

"Awww... come back here!" says the Chibi, chasing after Blaze. "At least have a nibble! It'll put hair on your chest!"

[Blaze]

Blaze scowls and glares at the Chibi.

"I'm not eating any lizard! Piss off!"

[Feng]

"Please just take the sample with you then," says the Chibi handing her the skewer. "My boss will fire me if I don't get any more customers. I need this job to pay for my mother's hospital bill..."
