No, actually..? [Sure, Chuu, the orphanage was just filled to the brim with the latest gaming equipment.] But I'm sure all of those things could be around.

Except ogres! I don't think we've had ogres.

[He says it so cheerfully, like it's the biggest silver lining ever.

Soon enough they've left the city, and as expected, those who weren't able to get very far for whatever reason were also not that smooth about hiding their tracks. This might just be even simpler a mission than anticipated.]

If they really don't want to come back, we can't make them. But they've been stuck in no man's land, and suffering harassment. If we explain that the temples are offering sanctuary, they'll probably be more than willing to return.

[The only problems Atsushi foresees are in encountering possible harassers (not a problem as such, but possibly a problem in that there could be fallout later), and in smuggling people back into the city - though that one crystal may help with that.

And the wildlife, of course. There are definitely plants and animals that would steal Chuuya's hat.]
