Grey takes the last biscuit and looks at Patchouli thoughtfully. Ever since Koakuma left, she stayed silent. However, he senses that she wants to say something.

"..."

He glances at the book on spirits. He starts to reach for it when Patchouli finally speaks.

"Your dreams," she says. "I would recommend paying close attention to them."

"Excuse me?"

Patchouli puts down her book and closes it. She looks straight at Grey with a concerned expression.

"You don't need to tell anyone what you see," she says. "But I believe that those unusual dreams may not be a coincidence. Something... similar happened before."

"Something similar?" Grey asks.

Patchouli stands up.

"Don't worry," she says. "I won't let it happen to you."

She hovers deeper into the library before Grey can say anything.

...

Grey finds himself back in his room. He looks around and sees everything exactly as he left it.

He lies on the bed and begins staring at the ceiling. Koakuma, Sakuya, and even Patchouli seem to know about a previous incident in the mansion. Remilia probably knows as well. But he only has a few clues: the letter with the foreboding message, the two youkai attacks, and the missing guest. There are several other suspicious things, but he isn't sure how they are related.

He needs to find more information before he can act. Some early preparation may help, as well.
