 We then ask the Cedar tree if we have completed the job against the Jabaloo, but he does not respond. We conclude from this that there is more to do. We then ask the Cedar tree if we have completed the job against the Jabaloo, but he does not respond.

 +==== Week 6 / 1 (Year of the Dog) ====
 +We continue our exploration of the tunnels, and decide to clear the rockfall. Beyond the rockfall there are more black robed monks, who attack us, and are defeated. The tunnel then leads to a volcano, that is inhabited by a monovalent Kami. There is a pagoda on a gravel bar, that is unreachable, and in the cone of the volcano there is a big jar that contains main souls - "those possessed by the Jabaloo perhaps?"
 +
 +Extract from **"Discourse of the Jabaloo"**
 +
 +> **The Cult of the Jabaloo is potentially a great threat to the provinces of this part of china. In its many guises and 'laws, evils and truths' it presents and acceptable face to Buddhists, Shin'to, Taoists and the bureaucrats alike. It is this acceptable, but untruthful face that hides it's many evils... If we are to avoid the subjugation of the populace, and the honoring of many devils and spirits of monovalent intent, we must find a way to defeat this scourge.**
 +
 +We attempt to release them while them, while the volcano Kami attacks us with lumps of very hot rock. Our first attempt is driven off. We try tying a rope around the top of the jar, and pulling it over. After some struggle we succeed, in pulling the jar over, it rolls and breaks and releases the spirits contained within. we can now gain entrance to the pagoda. Inside there are 3 Shugenja who give us a very hard time. After a long struggle 2 die, and one escapes leave very fast.Lee Ho goes astral to track the escaping Shugenja. The escaping Shugenja is engaged in combat by Gadunga-Myoo and killed. Lee Ho tanks him for his assistance. He then returns to the physical world and preforms a segati rite on the remains of the Shugenja. We return to the original island and find the inhabitants are now all right (there souls have returned).
 +
 +==== Week 6 / 2 (Year of the Dog) ====
 +At dawn we revisit the Cedar tree, who is pleased with out work. He has been talking to the Great Dragon of the West on our behalf.. He also tells us of location of the 'Old Dog of Tsai Ti' who we need to visit. The Old Dog is located at Mount Ti. The Great Western Dragon grants use one journey up or down the river. Mount Ti is down stream, and the source of the Yangtze is up. We decide to walk up stream, so we can use our one river journey to return to Mount Ti. We say good-bye to the boat and crew, a long acquaintance is over!
