Um...

[If Kafei was hesitant the last time he made a scroll message, then right now he's just a ball of nerves. That dragon thing got him laughed at, and then his last in-person meeting was...less than stellar. It's hard to trust people, okay? But right now he really doesn't have much of a choice.]

...I had planned on going to those mines once they opened, and now that the time has come, I'm in need of an...escort. I know I was told that the path would be safe, but at least in Termina, it's incredibly unwise to leave town unprepared. Really, I have no idea how this town gets away without having any guards...

Which means I find myself forced to reach out. I'm afraid I have nothing to pay anyone with, so I can understand if this sounds less than ideal. After all, I don't have to go...

[He begins to shrink back, the second-guessing commences; ABORT. ABORT.]

This was a bad idea, I apologize.

Froms the sounds of things, they've been dealing with the same sort of stuff we have, with Dogs being taken into Calice. It's possible they could have noticed a few patterns we haven't.

If nothing else, they could make good friends, and here, friends mean power.

You keep saying that, but I've yet to see any proof of it.

You've only been here for a month or so. There was a big example of it back in February, during the Windingo incident.

I, of course, have no idea what any of that means.

Just give it time.

A month isn't long enough? How much time could I possibly need?

I have a feeling about the beginning of next month. It's the anniversary of when this stuff first started.

...You actually keep track of those sorts of things?

Casually, yeah. There's a loose pattern to these sorts of things, usually about once a month, occasionally with a break. The last big thing was the dream incident, so it's only a matter of time now.

[He's been doing this thing for far too long.]

[His paws slowly begin to hold his head.]

I'm going to die here...

...Nah. Death doesn't really stick here.

[Minato that's not helping]

[Seriously.]

And what do you mean by that?

When someone from off-world dies, they just poof away in rainbows, just like the they came in. More often than not, they show up a few days later.

[Again he finds himself holding his head, his mouth hung open in a very angry, silent scream as he looks down. His tail bristles out absurdly and he can't even seem to say anything, his body language does all the talking.]

[Sometimnes, Minato forgets that not everyone here is as experienced in horrible things as he is.]

[He's just gonna... give him a moment to calm down.]

[It may take awhile, but he does eventually calm down. Or, at least, as calm as he can make himself, that head is held very low.]

I need a drink...

At least wait until after you get back from your visit.

[THE LONGEST GROAN]

You'll be fine. If we can all handle it, so can you.

...You put far too much faith into me.

Nah, I just know you can do it. Just gotta try.

[Yeah, way too much faith.]

I can try...

...after milk.

Be careful down that road. I've seen what it can do to people.

Please, the milk here doesn't even allow me to get tipsy. ...And I refuse to partake in cider.

[He'll also have the strongest bones of any fox here.]

...Huh. I thought you just spiked it with something.
