[She makes a light gesture over her shoulder with one hand.]
There are thousands of delicate paper cranes that need carried out of my home. They are not heavy, but they are extremely important - and fragile.
[Lifting her head slightly, she appraises Izumo in particular to see about trusting him with this.]
One in such a position as mine can't afford much, but I have some charms leftover from last year's decorations in a box that I would be willing to give to each of you - as a token of my thanks. That is, if you can carry those cranes for me and not bend a single wing among the flocks.
[The attendants start murmuring again.]
If that task is accomplished, there are perhaps other heavier paper decorations that these gentleman will need help moving - but we must first finish our discussion about them. In that time, perhaps you will be able to transport the smaller figures first and leave us to our business?
