Hinamori looked at Frau, concern mixed with happiness that he seemed to have emerged intact and aware. "We have to try. What's the worst that could happen?" Asking that question showed just how little Hinamori had actually thought about the answer, but she continued on.

"Between the two of us, there has to be something we can do. Don't worry, Frau, we'll fix this." I'll fix this, she resolved quietly. Hinamori was still operating under the assumption that this was something bizarre and out of the ordinary, something caused by the Core or the Darkness perhaps. (Enough weird things had happened in the short time she was here that it almost didn't faze her anymore.) She didn't know that the scythe was something Frau had brought from home.
