[It's . . . a wolf. At the sight of it on her screen, Ran freezes. She's never seen one before -- or at least one that was free, not in a book.]

[It's not quite like any wolf she's ever seen before, though, with those markings and -- what is that blue thing?]

[She's not any further reassured when writing appears on the paper like magic. Possibly it is magic. Or a gho-- no, no, no, she can't even go there.]

[When all else fails, good to be polite? Again, Ran has read enough fairy tales to know that.]

A-Ah -- thank you. [She bows back.]

Honestly, I'm not sure . . . I'm not really sure how I can help this place at all. I'm just a high school student at home. Dad or Shinichi could probably have done more.

. . . Are you sure you want me?
