Innocent fox yokai Yahiko finds a cute little yokai in the mountains.
Yahiko brings the yokai home and names her Kinako. Yahiko dotes on Kinako, and she grows fond of him.
However, Kinako is too weak to remain in the mundane world and will eventually disappear.
Wanting to save Kinako, Yahiko asks Abeno and Ashiya to exorcise her, but Kinako and Yahiko find themselves at odds when she refuses to go without Yahiko, but Yahiko can't return to the Underworld.
Ashiya suggests a compromise--
If you're feeling anxious, would you 
like me to accompany you partway there?
Wenn du dich fürchtest,
begleite ich dich gerne ein Stück.
Si está preocupada,
puedo acompañarla parte del camino.
Si cela peut vous rassurer, je ferai
la moitié du chemin avec vous.
Se está se sentindo ansiosa, gostaria que
eu a acompanhasse até parte do caminho?
