"Well, I cannot help you presently or personally" You start, as a sudden flash of genius strikes you like flash of lightning from the heavens. The Gu Master simply rolls their skull under the skittering limbs of countless thousands of insects as they "Stare" at your direction. They must be seeing mostly through spiritual sense, unless those tiny beady red lights in the sockets of their skull function as their eyes.
"However" You continue, swaying close and putting your hands where their cheeks would be, being very accustomed to carnivorous and carrion eating vermin from all the long hours you spent meditating in the crypts under your temple, and find these Gu insects almost cute with the sheen of their shells and the array of colors present in their carapaces "I can provide you assistance, a contact down by the yellow springs"
"Curious. That. One. So. righteously. minded. deals. with. devils" They remark, leaning back, watching the still dripping tear in your skin from where you'd made your veins crawl out of "But. I. am. Listening"
"I shall send a flight of crow demons your way. They've been scrapping and kowtowing at my feet since I slew their king, and they're indebted to me. If they want to flaunt and peacock around saying they're under Lady Crow Killer's protection, well, they might as well work for me, yeah?" You snicker, and wince as the Gu master does as well
"Amusing. You've. Taken. over. a demon. tribe. like. a. gangster. running. a. protection. racket" She clacks and clicks, the pair of mandibles under her jaw snapping together "Hilarious. And they. will. Help. me?"
"Crow devils are opportunists . I chased them out from my neighbors' lands, but they'll be content to prey upon the war dead and victims of your search, and be more than happy to help you find the right pieces to feed your pets, so long as you let them get their pound of flesh and draught of soul" You explain "and, I'm sure, even weakened, you could put any of them into their place and if they get rowdy, I'll just have crow for dinner. Simple"
"hmm" They hum, tapping two boney fingers together "this. is. acceptable"
"And be a dear and remind them that I'll be taking a scouting fee and operational cut from any souls they whisk and spirit away during your search for jade like beauties and unlucky fairies" You snicker, wagging a finger back and forth "And tell the old Crone to keep her flock on this side of the border"
"And. Away. from. The. Disi. Ling" The Gu Master says what you're thinking and about to tell her.
"Clever girl" You praise, patting the bare pate of their skull
"Odd. Girl" They reply with a chitter "So. We've. an. accord"
"Unless you intend to bloody the nose of any kids or leave any orphans out to the starving dogs and wolves, we do" You tell her
"Do. you. an. orphanage?" They ask and you answer with a toothy grin as you trot away through the field of the dead, and use the phantom cats waltz to appear back before Ao and your mother
