Hmmm was it this story where shes an actual daughter/sister and that the temple steals children and wipes their memories before turning them into beasts?
from the very moment i read about the og yurika disappearing and her hair and eye color as well as the fact that it was on the way to the temple and that it was common in this family for children to disappear and on top of that, that there's a legend that memeber of this family were beastmen. it's pretty obvious
PLEASE THEY WERE JUST ABOUT TO BOND
