Makie Kuzuhara
Template:FFIII GhostMakie Kuzuhara is trapped within the Manor of Sleep with her daughter Kozue, as a result of them both succumbing to the Tattooed Curse. In life, Makie discovered her husband's dead body. Afraid and unsure of what to tell her daughter, she pretended he had simply vanished. So both mother and daughter wandered through the forest daily looking for him. Makie had no idea her daughter had, in fact, witnessed her husband's death, nor that Kozue felt responsible for causing it. After the two were missing for several days, a neighbor came by their house to check on them. All that was left of Makie and her daughter were the tell-tale soot marks of the Tattooed Curse.
With her daughter still in tow, Makie continued searching the manor in vain for her husband, even though she knew him to be dead. She asks everyone she encounters in the manor about his whereabouts, including Rei Kurosawa.
Overwhelmed and seeking to hide from her mother's grief, Kozue's spirit split apart from her mother's. She left a note for her mother explaining how her father died and apologizing for it. Makie, half-crazed, then began the desperate search for her daughter. When Rei photographs her during this time, the developed photo reveals Makie holding what appears to be an unknown infant.
Mother and Daughter Sidequest
The "Mother and Daughter" sidequest is an optional sequence of events taking place during Hour III. Rei must track down and photograph both Makie and Kozue after they have separated. The rewards for completing the sidequest are Kozue's Scrap of Paper, a file photo and a second note about the pair in Rei's notebook.
