Arriving in Yāolù: Strike the Heart of the Palace!

''Seireitou was in the cabin, apparently in the Jinzen state, his eyes clenching. "Hanullim... Why... Why won't he answer... Ever since then..." Memories of Kamui's arrest, and Datara's escape came rushing back through his mind. Suzaku and Shiori also came to his mind, remembering the pain felt in both of their loss; whether it was death, or hatred. Hanullim's powers were working, to some extent, but the spirit had refused to speak to Seireitou. "Hey! Everybody, we're approaching the coast!" called out Sorata, as Seireitou's eyes opened instantly. He stood up, unable to worry about this now, as he arrived to the bow of the ship; as did the others. Seireitou looked out into the horizen, "I'm coming... Kamui..."''

The Coast
The ship crept along the wake of the shallow waters near the coast, finally anchoring at an abandoned port. Apparently, word hadn't gone through about a group of invaders, making it all the better for their group. Sorata was the first to get off, followed by the others, leaving Seireitou and Raian as the final two on the ship. Seireitou's eyes appeared sullen, much more than usual. As if he was under an intense hypnosis.
