Murasa Quest Continues 2 - A Z-Machine Adventure

[It's Purvis!]

> Where is that relative to our current location?
> How does the prospect of bringing this oily taint to Gensokyo make us feel?

>You don't know...downhill? Does that even exist in this place?
>That's a very good question. Given how you experienced it before, it would likely be a a moderate problem for anyone who encountered it. Unless they interact with it differently?

[Kilgamayan]

> Where is north?

[It's Purvis!]

> Where is north?

>...That's odd. You don't really feel it.
>That's very odd. Even while sealed away, you could still kind of feel it. You can't remember not feeling it, it's such a basic background noise in your life.

[Kilgamayan]

> How large do we feel?

[It's Purvis!]

> How large do we feel?

>You...don't have a good enough sense of yourself to know for sure, but...

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> ...but...?

[It's Purvis!]

> ...but...?

>Despite not having direct evidence, you can probably make an educated guess.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> ...are we an entire ocean now?

[It's Purvis!]

> ...are we an entire ocean now?

>You have no way of knowing for sure. But...there's certainly a line of reasoning that might lead you to believe that.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Okay, let's say we're a large body of water. What is presently stopping us from flowing into Gensokyo?

[Yaersulf]

>By some small miracle, have we as Murasa heard of the Western Interior Seaway?

[It's Purvis!]

> Okay, let's say we're a large body of water. What is presently stopping us from flowing into Gensokyo?

>That's...an excellent question. There's surely a reason, right?

>By some small miracle, have we as Murasa heard of the Western Interior Seaway?

>No.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Oi! Vast entity without form! You can hear this, right? Why can't you already flow to Gensokyo?

[It's Purvis!]

> Oi! Vast entity without form! You can hear this, right? Why can't you already flow to Gensokyo?

>There is no answer.

[Yaersulf]

>What do we know and/or can sense about the passage to Gensokyo?

[It's Purvis!]

>What do we know and/or can sense about the passage to Gensokyo?

>You are pretty sure that the only thing holding it back is whatever this missing factor is. It might have something to do with the nature of the place you were in, either the flooded Gensokyo, or that place between the trees.

>_

[Yaersulf]

>Does this missing factor feel at all like it could be similar to the doppelganger we encountered earlier?

[It's Purvis!]

>Does this missing factor feel at all like it could be similar to the doppelganger we encountered earlier?

>You're not sure. It feels like you may need to make a wider connection with all the information you've gathered up to this point.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Can we feel Stargazer?

[Yaersulf]

Ah strawberries, we better not have to sacrifice Stargazer to fix this :(

[It's Purvis!]

> Can we feel Stargazer?

>No. Or at least there's nothing you'd recognize as Stargazer. It's hard to tell, you feel so strange and disconnected from everything. But from what you can tell, nothing seems like Stargazer.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Can we get away from this thing somehow?
> Do we feel like we are currently able to do anything other than vaguely feel things and possibly flood Gensokyo?

[It's Purvis!]

> Can we get away from this thing somehow?
> Do we feel like we are currently able to do anything other than vaguely feel things and possibly flood Gensokyo?

>You aren't sure.
>You don't know, this is all so alien...

[Branneg Xy]

Ah strawberries, we better not have to sacrifice Stargazer to fix this :(

//Well,so far the more.at risk are Minamitsu.and the rest of the"Exploring-Resolving Team(Shou,Sakuya and.Tojiko)",while.Stargazer is the safest 1 involved alongside Yukari,to.whom we temporarily "entrust Stargazef",both together inside the  "Flooded Deserted Gensokyo Aspect(!) " of the Great Barrier//

>You are pretty sure that the only thing holding it back is whatever this missing factor is. It might have something to do with the nature of the place you were in, either the flooded Gensokyo, or that place between the trees.

> Are we able to "vaguely perceive",and of course stay focused on remembering+recognizing,Tojiko,Sakuya,Shou, and their state?

> Meditate:what happens to the Places "we" flow into as"formless,vast and fluid 'as we are'"?

> What js the 1st things or beings we have come.to notice or encounter while "whole to flow-out from 1 place and ending up flowi-nto 1 another"?

[Yaersulf]

>Does anything that we feel as part of ourself feel like a flooded Gensokyo?

[It's Purvis!]

>Does anything that we feel as part of ourself feel like a flooded Gensokyo?

>You do not feel Shou or any of the others...you think. It's hard to tell, you aren't used to this sort of sensation.
>You aren't sure what would happen. But you can imagine it might be dramatic.
>...You aren't sure if you feel the flooded Gensokyo or and not. You don't know what that would feel like offhand.

[Yaersulf]

>How expansive does the breadth of the place we occupy feel?

[Branneg Xy]

>How expansive does the breadth of the place we occupy feel?

> Do we feel ,in "our" new "vasteness","we are not impeded to practice getting the hang of flowing&moving around and focusing our far larger&stretched perceptions?

[It's Purvis!]

>How expansive does the breadth of the place we occupy feel?

>You...don't really have a point of reference. But given the things you've seen, you may be able to guess.

> Do we feel ,in "our" new "vasteness","we are not impeded to practice getting the hang of flowing&moving around and focusing our far larger&stretched perceptions?

>You aren't sure, but it feels like you can?

> Let's try that,then...

>...begin getting familiar with "flowing&moving around" in order to continue or exploration here,helping out our 3 fellow explorer-incident resolvers,and resolve this incident,and...

>...while doing so start employing "our now enlarged perceprions" to help along in focusing,finding out and pointing out.
