"Froo powder it is - just no mispwonouncicating," Daichi Korimori said
in a horrible accent, and cracked up at his own joke.

"Come on, the fireplace is downstairs," he encouraged, and led the
way.  He stopped at what looked like a closet door.  On a little shelf
next to it sat his wand, which he picked up and began writing on the
door with.  Characters Seluna would recognize as asian words appeared,
following his strokes, in bright red.

The door burst open onto narrow stairs, and the construction was
nothing like Seluna's parent's house. Mr. Korimori went down quickly
with great familiarity.  The room was enormous - far too big seeming
for the house above it.  On the far wall was a stand holding a
traditional suite of armor, and two cabinets, closed, but dark with
ornate carving on them.  Closer, on the left, was a nook that was
obviously a temple, full of half-burnt candles and pictures and little
knick-knacks that Seluna didn't have time to look at as the young ones
were herded in the other direction, toward the fireplace.

"We're going in through Moira Fu's.  Practice, say, 'Mah-I-Ra Fuse',"
he demanded, making the girls practice a few times before opening up
an ornate bowl of floo powder and going through first.
