The NPCs in Yamamura          

[WARNING! Filler Chapter]

"As you embark on this quest, may you gain insights into the threads that connect our worlds. Yamamura Village welcomes those who seek understanding with open hearts. May your actions speak of a future where Yokais and humanoids coexist in harmony."

With these words, the giant drapery fully enclosed Lady Satomi, veiling her from sight once more. 

The servants then presented white medallions to Xin and the others, each adorned with an engraving of a Yokai Kitsune from front to back.

"This will allow you to enter and explore our village freely," they announced.

Victor expressed concern, stating, "Ah, we still have others outside wanting to come in here."

"Don't worry, just bring them here to the castle, and we will provide them with medals as well . . . after Lady Satomi gives her approval, of course," assured the servant.
