That's why I was trying to reach out like this. I don't know enough people outside of the temple to make a large enough group on my own...and it sounds like a few of the people I do know were already taken.

[Hakkai and Caster, for example. In any case, Kotori is getting the impression that there's going to be a considerable amount of people raring to storm the forest come sunup, and that's all she could really ask for out of this.]

All I know about the forest is what's been happening the last few months - how it's been easy to be lured into and hard to get out of. There's no saying why it suddenly got so much worse.
