Summary
En route to their next destination, Golem and Somali take shelter from rain in a large treehouse. The abode is seasonally vacant, but still houses cooking ingredients, so Somali asks Golem to make something for her.

After sifting through recipes, Golem makes a souffle which Somali finds delicious. Before she can finish it, or warn Golem of a sudden loose tooth, Shizuno and Yabashira suddenly appear at their door asking for shelter. The next day, the two onis join the group and travel to snowy Bygone City, a savage town, in search of a famous dentist. They find the dentist, a mouse-looking man named Sowak, and he tells Shizuno about the ways of dentistry, but Somali becomes fearful due to her new dental problem. She flees into a trio of ruffians, causing an alley brawl between them and Golem with the two onis. During the scuffle, Somali's tooth comes free, but upon their return to the dentist, he informs her that it was a baby tooth and would be replaced. In need of a place to stay, the group is approached by an innkeeper who offers his place as thanks for getting rid of the gang from before, and also in exchange for being the town bodyguards. As Somali sleeps in her new bed, Shizuno confirms with Golem that Somali is human, and finds out that the automaton traded his forest guardianship to protect her instead.
