The fun doesn't stop just because the festival is over.

*With a savage grin, Yin-Yin skids across the table and pounces on the flaming spirit,
*knocking it off the side like an enthusiatic cat with a ball of yarn.
 	
*In a flash, the flaming spirit disappears from its humiliating defeat.
*The crowd erupts into a cheer, and begin celebrating her resounding victory.
 	
*Even Lydia had to clap despite this entire event happening out of the blue.
*Such was unlife; no matter how many years it had been since one's death,
*the memory of life persisted, and seeps every now and then into their mannerisms.
*In this way, Lydia was almost envious of how Yin-Yin still clung to her corporeal memory.
 	
*As the crowd of spirits quieted down, a very distressed Fernando pushed his way to the front to ask Lydia about her verdict.

*Lydia: Normally I'd throw everyone out of my estate and call the chief over this...
 	
*Lydia: ...But I have to admit that was wild and good fun. The most I've had in years!
*Lydia: All of you, please help yourselves.
*Lydia: But please refrain from, um, "trick and treating".
 	
*The crowd cheers again, and some hurry forward with the best picks for their gracious hostess.
 	
*Yin-Yin looked pleased with herself, perched on top of the table as she watched spirits feast with gusto.
 	
*Lydia: Aren't you going to partake in your victory feast?
 	
*Yin-Yin: No. I did this for you.
 	
*Yin-Yin: Thanks for inviting me.
 	
*Lydia: ... ...
 	
*Lydia says nothing, opting to sweep the corpse-girl up in a tight embrace instead.
 	
*Yin-Yin: Ehehe...

*Several days of good cheer and food later, The Return drew to a close.
*Lydia and Yin-Yin find themselves back at Azucar Abbey, seeing off the last of the spirits.
 	
*Yin-Yin: Miss Lydia, you'll be leaving soon too...Right?
 	
*Lydia: Yes. But I'll be back next year to visit friends and family again.
 	
*Lydia: I'm sorry that we didn't manage to find out where you came from.
 	
*Yin-Yin: That's okay. I think with enough wandering I'll end up home anyway.
*Yin-Yin taps her nose, a small fanged grin quirking at her lips.
 	
*Yin-Yin: I go where there's food!
 	
*Lydia: As much as I'd like to accompany you...You probably won't be able to perceive me for much longer.
*Lydia: There's a veil that separates the world of the living and the dead, and I'm not sure which side you're on.
 	
*The two sit in silence for a while, before Lydia stands and holds Yin-Yin's hands.
 	
*Lydia: Well, it's time for me to leave.
 	
*Lydia: Be safe, Yin-Yin. I'll miss you!
*Lydia: I hope you find your family soon.
 	
*Yin-Yin: Um, Miss Lydia?
*Yin-Yin: You can let go of my hands now.
*Yin-Yin: I think my wrists are making noises again.
 	
*Lydia: ... ...
*Lydia: You can still see me?
 	
*Yin-Yin: Yes?
*Yin-Yin: You're still here.
 	
*Lydia: Wait, that means...
*Lydia: Did you...Did your spirit move on?
*Lydia: But your body...?
 	
*Beak-Masked Man: I have a good hunch, if you're willing to listen.
*The doctor from a few days before steps into the abbey, nodding his head in greetings at the pair.
*Theodor: My name is Theodor. I came to this town to...conduct research on spirits.
 	
*Theodor: Ludicrous as it sounded to me at first, I had to press on for...a patient of mine.
 	
*Theodor: This could be a whole new realm of medicine waiting to be discovered.
 	
*Lydia: I-I see...
 	
*Theodor: At any rate, you needn't worry.
*Theodor: I'd say that barring any...complications...with the corporeal body,
*Theodor: your friend here has effectively crossed over to...what you call the spirit world.
*Theodor: I rather suspect several days of distilling sustenance from...food essence...has done much good.
 	
*Lydia: Thank you for letting us know...
 	
*Lydia: I hope everything goes smoothly with your patient.
 	
*Theodor: No no, I must thank *you* and the town for advancing my research.
 	
*Theodor: I am sure she will be heartened to know there are...similar cases out there.
*Theodor's red-glassed stare lingers on Yin-Yin for a moment before he adjusts his coat.
*Theodor: Well, I must be on my way. I bid you both farewell.
 	
*Lydia watches the doctor leave, an oddly chilling vibe hanging in the air before she registers a telltale tug of her sleeve.
 	
*Yin-Yin: Then...Can Miss Lydia come visit my family with me?
*Yin-Yin: I want to check on them. Maybe ask about why they forgot my food in the first place.
 	
*Lydia: I don't see why not.
*Lydia: I hope they don't mind spirits.
*Lydia: Hungry ones at that...
 	
*Yin-Yin: Food...
