Seija Quest 2

[Kilgamayan]

> ...Can oni really not lie? We lie all the time, don't we? Are amanojaku just exempt from that rule?
> Look to Reimu.
> "Well, that's one, at least. Do you remember who has been in the kitchen today? Present company excluded."

[Tom]

> ...Can oni really not lie? We lie all the time, don't we? Are amanojaku just exempt from that rule?

> They really can't even comprehend the concept of lying. You on the other hand are different and have no problems lying, but you also don't drink barrels full of alcohol
> You know that Amanojaku are closely related to oni and share their physical strength but are much more cunning and methodical, relying on logic, leverage and magic to get things done rather than brute force.

> Look to Reimu.
> "Well, that's one, at least. Do you remember who has been in the kitchen today? Present company excluded."

> She again cheerfully replies "Nope!"

[Kilgamayan]

> Look to Reimu.
> "What about you, red-white? You were in the kitchen a bunch."

[Tom]

> Look to Reimu.
> "What about you, red-white? You were in the kitchen a bunch."

> "Well while Youmu, you and I were working on the spring rolls Tenshi came in to eat.  Earlier Shinmyoumaru was in her room while Marisa and Mima were read some magic book and after the event started I saw Mokou sneak off to the back of the shrine? Oh and Suika ocassionally went in and out to help with the cleaning

[Kilgamayan]

> Would Shinmyoumaru know about kerosene? Or gunpowder?
> "Tenshi left almost as soon as she entered, and I watched her the entire time, so it couldn't have been her unless she went back in later. She took the brunt of the explosion itself, though...I don't know if she would have done that to herself. Would any of the others you mentioned know much about that liquid?"

[Tom]

> Would Shinmyoumaru know about kerosene? Or gunpowder?

> There's a few books in the castle's library on gunpowder's properties, manufacturing and use in traditional cannons and other primitive firearms.
> You doubt she'd know much about kerosene but she did live with Reimu so it's possible she figured out how that heater works.

> "Tenshi left almost as soon as she entered, and I watched her the entire time, so it couldn't have been her unless she went back in later. She took the brunt of the explosion itself, though...I don't know if she would have done that to herself. Would any of the others you mentioned know much about that liquid?"

> "Well Marisa and Mima probably spend the most time here after Shinmyoumaru who lives with me, so its possible they've been around when Mr Rinnosuke was filling it to ask him questions. As for Mokou well... she likes all things flammable"

[Kilgamayan]

> "Hmm. Would Tenshi or Mokou know about that hatch in the guest room?
> "And no one noticed the handle was missing until after I left the kitchen?"

[Tom]

> "Hmm. Would Tenshi or Mokou know about that hatch in the guest room?

> "I doubt it, they probably think this room is a closet or something"

> "And no one noticed the handle was missing until after I left the kitchen?"

> "Suika noticed it was missing earlier that afternoon when I asked her to fetch some water from the pond behind"
// This was already mentioned [Here]

[Kilgamayan]

> Do we know if that was before or after we helped with the spring rolls?

[Tom]

> Do we know if that was before or after we helped with the spring rolls?

> You assume before since it was nearly sunset by then. You hardly call that 'afternoon'.

[Kilgamayan]

> Frown a bit.
> "That would be before I even got here..."
> How good an actor is Shinmyoumaru?

[Tom]

> Frown a bit.
> "That would be before I even got here..."

> "Indeed, those who were here before you were Youmu, Shinmyoumaru, Mima, Marisa, Suika and I.

> How good an actor is Shinmyoumaru?

> Quite talented, given that she's of royal descent.  During the revolution she loved practicing her motivational speeches which always sounded incredibly inspiring even if she was having a rough day worrying about the progress below.

[Kilgamayan]

> Adopt a look of sudden realization.
> "Wait."
> Finger-snap.
> "The witch was doing something by the donation box when I first arrived. I think she was playing with some sort of doll."

[Tom]

> Adopt a look of sudden realization.
> "Wait."
> Finger-snap.
> "The witch was doing something by the donation box when I first arrived. I think she was playing with some sort of doll."

> The shrine maiden's eyes widen
> "Marisa? She'd never..."
> Reimu thinks for a moment and breathes a sigh of relief
> "She must've just been looking at Iris!"
> Youmu remarks "It never hurts to ask, maybe she saw something inside the box?"

[Kilgamayan]

> Did the doll Marisa was playing with at the time look like Iris?
> Did we ever talk to Alice about her dolls?

[Tom]

> Did the doll Marisa was playing with at the time look like Iris?

> You didn't know it at the time but retrospectively you believe so.

> Did we ever talk to Alice about her dolls?

> No, you've been wanting to learn more about her since the revolution. Her house reminds you of the outside world and so does her name sound foreign.

[Kilgamayan]

> Did Shinmyoumaru talk to Alice at all, that we recall?

[Tom]

> Did Shinmyoumaru talk to Alice at all, that we recall?

> Not that you know of, you did your best to keep her occupied in the Shining Needle Castle.
> She spent most of her day studying in the library ways to boost the mallet's magical power or preparing various speeches to help you recruit more members.

[Kilgamayan]

> Are we aware of any relationship Alice may have with Marisa?

[Tom]

> Are we aware of any relationship Alice may have with Marisa?

> Well there have been gossipy rumors in the Tengu papers about Alice having a crush on Marisa...

[Kilgamayan]

> "...If there's a doll involved, and if Marisa might be involved, would it be worth asking Alice for information first, just in case?"

[Tom]

> "...If there's a doll involved, and if Marisa might be involved, would it be worth asking Alice for information first, just in case?"

> Reimu nods "Alice is always very polite and might even help us..."

[Kilgamayan]

> "Let's go see her, then."

[Tom]

> "Let's go see her, then."

> Reimu leads you out to the front yard and through the shrine's faith gate to the long staircase where you find Alice and Tenshi talking about Mahjong
> One of her dolls notices you and tugs on her shoulder
> "Can I help you?"

[Kilgamayan]

> Is Youmu still with us?
> "If you don't mind. Need to ask you about some private stuff."

[Tom]

> Is Youmu still with us?
> "If you don't mind. Need to ask you about some private stuff."

> She certainly is and whispers "What is it about?"

[Kilgamayan]

> Did Alice or Youmu answer that? It was directed at Alice, I just wanted to verify Youmu came along.

[Tom]

// My bad thought it was directed at Youmu
> Youmu did

[Kilgamayan]

> "Oh, sorry, not you, her."
> Gesture to Alice.

[Tom]

> "Oh, sorry, not you, her."
> Gesture to Alice.

> Tenshi crosses her arms
> "Why am I always excluded from anything important!?"
