[At first, all you can see of the island is a large weeping willow. Its drooping branches encircle the perimeter of the island like a living curtain. Brush them aside, however, and you will find the usual lantern at its trunk. Around the lantern are several sotoba -- the wooden boards on which the posthumous name of the deceased are written -- giving it the look of a graveyard. They are too worn and faded to make out the writing on them. In front of the lantern is a stone step on which three cards have been placed. Funeral incense smolders next to the cards.



Upon seeing the cards, you instantly know the task associated with each.

✿ willow with poet: one person must let the others view/experience one of their greatest fears (10 points)
✿ willow with swallow: each person must experience one of their worst fears (5 points)
✿ rain and lightning: one person must experience one of their worst fears (1 point)
