-- and yes. My temple. We just have to go from here to the Near Shore.
[Temples connect to temples; he's not trusting himself to teleport even with the medication keeping his fever down and his headache mostly at bay, but stepping into the human world is a different and simpler process. He disappears from the front hall without fanfare, and squints at the rain-streaked courtyard of a modestly sized Taoist shrine. There's no one out in the courtyard, but it's only a summer squall; the priests must have taken temporary refuge in the main building, where it won't be hard to find them. For the moment, he waits for Botan to join him, as Jeep complains about the weather and snuggles up closer for protection against the rain.]
