were playing hide and seek and Tsugumi was the seeker. The children were all hiding while Tsugumi was counting, that's when the children, excluding Tsugumi, heard Heito scream. The children went outside to check out Heito and what they saw was the Lightless Realm. They started going outside and somehow got lost. They forgot about the game and about Tsugumi. As Sasame and Minashi knew about how the children would be affected by the Lightless Realm, they got Arborine fruit and put them in each one's pocket to prevent them from dying. Once Tsugumi finished counting, she was looking for all of them and realized that they were gone. She rode on the corpse to catch up with them and the children ended up leaving her.
