Zenko arranges for Yahiko to help around the temple while he stays with her. Ashiya is relieved, but he soon runs into another yokai. The bird yokai Jomatsu is concerned for his heartbroken mistress Princess Anmo, who withdrew into an egg shell she made and hasn't come out for a long time. Jomatsu has been searching for the Mononokean so he can return to the Underworld with Princess Anmo still inside her egg.
but I can't send you to the Underworld 
while you're inside your shell.
aber in Eurer Schale kann ich
Euch nicht in die Unterwelt schicken.
pero así no puedo
enviarte al inframundo.
mais on ne peut pas
vous exorciser en l’état…
mas não posso te levar ao Submundo
 se ficar dentro desse ovo.
