You have arrived at a traditional inn, accompanied by four authors from Nekomata-sha. For the next week, the authors are scheduled to spend time in their respective rooms to refresh themselves.
And remarkably, thanks to the inn's hospitality, it seems you have the place almost entirely to yourselves.
You could get some work done, or you could go strike up a conversation.
How will you spend your time?
