We were investigating a disappearance in Yomi-no-Kuni. One of our own went there a few weeks ago and never came back.

[The rest of their reasons for going, she's not sure yet if she should tell him. She doesn't know him, but more importantly, she doesn't trust that he won't do or say something that will end up getting Hakkai and Sanzo taken from her. Or worse.]
