Tsuchimikado Village.
Onizuka Tokotsume followed Sakai Eriya's channeling traces into a seemingly unremarkable low house.
"This seems to have been a warehouse."
The Miko observed the surroundings, noting that the former warehouse now only housed a pile of rotting, foul-smelling straw turned gray-black.
Then, she saw Sakai Eriya step down underground, gradually disappearing from view.
Onizuka moved to the spot where Sakai Eriya's channeling traces vanished.
Behind the pile of rotting straw here, there appeared to be an entrance to the underground, blocked by some debris.
A damp, decaying smell wafted up from below.
When the warehouse was still intact, this passageway was likely covered by wooden planks or similar items, but now that it was deserted, the entrance to the underground was exposed.
Quickly clearing away the debris from the underground entrance, Onizuka placed a Talisman into the dark passage.
