Great. So: the contract?

[There was, in fact, more to this than petty bitches]

[worldbent]

[Matoba smiles to himself, and sends back just one word.]

Live.

[paperpusher]

[What?]

What.

[But shortly after, before Matoba would have time to get a response back, another doll appears:]

A distortion of the tradition of giving gifts to celebrate a birthday? You've kept living, so here is the present?

[Or is this another part of their fixation of the 'health of the residents'?]

[worldbent]

I'm afraid you'll have to wait a few days and interrogate the shiki or its master yourself in order to get the details. I believe the exact words were

「you will fulfill the contract by living」

Is that sufficient for you?

By the by, I found it rather easy to paralyze.

["Interrogate." Of course.]

Noted.
