he cursed.Keido got up and went back to the horse, he opened the saddlebag and found in it a long coat with a large hood like the one Tenchu ​​had. His gaze wandered to Toshiro, then he reached into the saddlebag and took out the coat. He went to Toshiro and put the coat on him, Keido hoped that he would keep him a little warm. Then he carried Toshiro back to the horse and sat him on it. This time he sat in front of Keido so he could hold on to him so that he does not fall off. Toshiro was breathing loudly and heavily and Keido reproached himself for not noticing that Toshiro had received the arrows.

Tenchu, Ventai, and Tanuki had reached the mist swamp without incident that morning. A large veil of mist lay over the swamp and you had to be careful where you stepped. "Are you sure the way through the mist is really that much safer?" Ventai Tenchu ​​asked uncertainly. "I think so. We just have to be careful and stay close together.!Tenchu ​​answered him. In the fog swamp one could hear marsh frogs disturbing the silence of the swamp with their loud and deep croaking. Tenchu ​​went into the Ventai fog first and Tanuki stayed close behind him. The path through the swamp was narrow and uneven, any wrong step could be certain death. Suddenly Tanuki slipped and threatened to fall into the swamp, but Ventai held her with his strong arm. "You have to be more careful Tanuki," he said to her in a low and calm voice. She nodded to him and then continued after Tenchu.

It was noon and the sun was high in the cloud-free sky. "The way ends here we either have to turn around and look for another way or we go through the swamp which would save us a lot of time." Tenchu ​​said to Ventai and Tanuki. "The swamp is quite dangerous and we don't know if the path will continue. The danger is too great that we will get lost and be eaten by swamp snakes."Notice Ventai. Tenchu ​​looked at Tanuki questioningly and waited for her opinion. But Tanuki said nothing, she pondered, then she went to the end of the path. She folded her hands and whispered a few words. A glow came from her hands and her cloak Wild blew around. The glow increased and made the fog disappear in the area. What remained was a desolate place, uprooted trees protruding from the swamp, which were surrounded by swamp bushes. "Yes, the way is continued. "Tanuki told them. She let her hands drop slowly, but the glow remained. Tanuki turned to Tenchu ​​and Ventai and said to them" Stay behind me, but you mustn't think of anything bad. Because that interferes with the Positive Magical Power. "She turned away from them and walked towards the swamp even where the path ends. She continued on an invisible path that led across the swamp. Every time it came into contact with the invisible path, it glowed brightly underfoot.Ventai hesitated when he stood at the edge of the path, he closed his eyes and just took a step forward. He was happy and grinned when he saw the glow under his feet. Slowly he followed Tanuki step by step and Tenchu ​​followed him. After half an hour they had reached the right path and Tanuki made the invisible path disappear again. When it disappeared the fog moved over the area again and you could hardly see anything again.
