Hidden in the mist Yuki dashed towards the place where she first encountered Princess Yukari. Mean time she -the princess- lay on her bed with a high fever, to her parents’ dismay only seemed to worsen. Even the royal palace doctors found themselves at odds in regards to her condition and concluded it was for the best to wait and see how her symptoms progressed. Tired of waiting, filled with a sense of powerlessness and impotence the emperor went to the temple’s main shrine to continue praying for his daughter’s well-being, as he had been doing every day. A tense and heavy atmosphere surrounded the temple when Yuki arrived; pulled by her curiosity she hopped inside and wandered around for a while until she saw the emperor and his wife near the main shrine; this is where the mirror that Yuki found was.
As she cautiously and stealthy approached the couple, she felt their sadness and sorrow as well as their desire to save their beloved child. Feeling compelled by the sincere desire of the aching parents, Yuki decide to take action and help them not knowing that the daughter in peril was none other than the one she was looking for!
Even though she was told by Maki not to approach the humans-remember we kitsune are yokai!!!-in the temple, she just ignored the order and transformed into a beautiful miko, then headed towards the depressed king and queen.
While trying to console her husband the queen saw a human figure approaching in the clearing mist.
