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.
On top of that, the shell seems 
to be getting larger every day.
Außerdem scheint das Ei
täglich größer zu werden.
Además, el huevo crece
con cada día que pasa.
Qui plus est,
la coquille ne cesse de grossir !
E tem mais, a concha parece 
estar ficando maior a cada dia.
