The man called Small Mountain might hold onto that title for a while still, as he seemed to be unaffected by either the very corruption of the place, nor battered by recent encounters. He, however, was neither on his brawn sleep nor on amorous non-sleep with his wife, what probably indicated just a bit of disquiet.

"That the Nezumi might have a way to close the pit created by Fu Leng's fall. The hang-up is that it involves using his Name in some magic of theirs, which had Reiko and Nanzi all a-flutter."
He sighed.
"Your wife tried to explain that his Name- the way the Nezumi mean it- is going to change anyway as he becomes mortal, but there was still some hemming and hawing. Although it did shut your brother in law up more than most things I've seen, which means I owe your lady a favor."

""That's... Gaun a bawherr 'boon mah heid. Bit esoteric." He scratched his scalp. "Is how come she insae around?" Clearly, he wasn't in disposition for making fun of Hantei shutting up, something that would otherwise put him in good mood.

Sora had actually meant Nanzi being shut up, but words were so imprecise.
"No, that seems something to do with Phi. And Shinsei. And that fucking crow. I'm not privy to the details, I just know that Shinsei's not around, and Phi and Karasu went with Shinjo when she departed."

He wanted to ask if she had told anyone where she was going but somehow it would be embarrassing for him not to know so he kept himself hanging. He was already unnerved enough not being there for her, wherever that there was.

Sora frowned.
"That's a bit unclear, at least in the specific sense. I'll try to keep you posted- and Jin is working on some avenues that might benefit from a bit of brawn. But as matters stand, we carry on. We rescue Fu Leng, and hopefully, we close the Pit."

"He is, so far as I can tell, a very experienced, very insightful man. Saruko knows him better than I do."
He paused.
"And so does Phi, it would seem. I will say, he doesn't seem hostile to our... basic worldview."

Without warning, half Sora's vision goes briefly fuzzy, and he knows well by know which half is the trouble child.
At first nothing seems to happen, everything appears perfectly normal and unaffected. But then Koyama begins to scream. He screams with an inhuman agony so profound that Sora can practically feel the scar it leaves in his soul.
Koyama drops to his knees, and finally the man can see the source of his friend's pain; a grievous wound tears through him, burning a perfectly circular hole from crown to root. The man's roars of pain become so raw that their very nature changes, becoming bestial, animalistic, frantic...
As Sora watches, helpless, earth and stone rise up and bury his friend, filling up the horrible wound and covering every inch of his skin in stone and dirt. The makeshift tomb settles, holding the grisly shape of his friend.
Then it begins to swell, cracking and grinding, changing shape and size and....
The vision ends, as swiftly as it came.
