7,"TEXT_JOBAST650_02411_SEQ_07","Before you can help Kyokuho lay the geomantic bonds anew, you will need to further strengthen your attunement to the heavens. In other words, train, train, and possibly train some more.

213 209 TEXT_JOBAST650_02411_MURAKUMO_000_095 Then I was right to summon you home. Pardon my intrusion, traveler. I am Murakumo. Second pupil of the great Kazan, and instructor to young Kyokuho.

217 213 TEXT_JOBAST650_02411_MURAKUMO_000_097 Absolutely not. While you have mended the weakened bonds for now, the flaw in them remains. Unless you expect your friend here to remain in Kugane for the remainder of <If(PlayerParameter(4))>her<Else/>his</If> life, we will need to find a more permanent solution. In other words, the bonds must be laid anew.

225 221 TEXT_JOBAST650_02411_KYOKUHO_000_101 My master is right. Perhaps there is something in my grandfather's tomes, or perhaps I may still find a way to win over the other geomancers to our cause. There is always hope, is there not?

I was beginning to worry what I would do the next time the city was invaded by Kinko's minions. The master can barely make his way out of the privy each morning, let alone battle blood-lusting specters.
