Neo Gensokyo Quest - Part 4

[Kilgamayan]

Iku:

> Try leaning a liittle bit forward as well, so maybe we can get a bit of a view of Tenshi's face.
> "With that, shall we depart?"

[Neovereign]

Iku:

> Try leaning a liittle bit forward as well, so maybe we can get a bit of a view of Tenshi's face.
> "With that, shall we depart?"

Iku:

> "Yeah, let's go already." Tenshi breaks off from you.

[Kilgamayan]

Iku:

> Can we tell where the Shining Needle Castle is relative to our current location?
> "Of course. Do you have a preference for how I carry you?"

[Philosopher]

Seki
>Do a mental review of what has happened

[Neovereign]

Iku:

> Can we tell where the Shining Needle Castle is relative to our current location?
> "Of course. Do you have a preference for how I carry you?"

Seki
>Do a mental review of what has happened

Iku:

> You aren't sure...
> "Any way will do. Just don't hold me by my leg or something like I'm a doll."

Seki:

> Following the duel between Aya's new friends and Daiyousei's, you took the Scarlet Devil Mansion residents' home. They froze partway through at some point, but you managed to thaw them all out with the fire that engulfs your head, which you have some sitting at a fireplace for them and anyone else that needs it. Suffice to say, this is surely a start of you being more useful, right?
> ...You hope this isn't just something special to fairies, and that you'd have been useless if you weren't a fairy like Daiyousei suggested you are...
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Iku:

> What is Heaven's stance on lewd activities?
> Have we ever considered such things before?
> Has Tenshi ever shown interest in such things?

[Philosopher]

Seki
>. . .Let's concentrate on helping.

>"Mistress, are there other coworkers in the mansion that need to be thawed?"

[Neovereign]

Iku:

> What is Heaven's stance on lewd activities?

> Has Tenshi ever shown interest in such things?

Seki
>. . .Let's concentrate on helping.

>"Mistress, are there other coworkers in the mansion that need to be thawed?"

Iku:

> You try to recall if it was ever brought up... No?
> Maybe the Dragon Palace did?
> No, they're the same place.
> No wait, the Dragon Palace is the moon.
> But that can't be. You don't remember it as such at all. It should be at the... Where?
> What is the Dragon Palace? It can't be the Lunar Capital. Where is it?
> "So?" Tenshi snaps you out of the confusions again. Right... You should at least focus on something you know, like that something's calling you to this castle.
> You wouldn't take the lead in such a thing if it were to happen. If Tenshi brought it up herself, then you think you'd go along, since her deciding it would already be a big step for herself. You don't think she'd halfheartedly decide to try something like such and back off midway through.
> No strong examples that you know of.

Seki:

> "Are there?" Remilia questions.
> "P-Probably..." One of the fairies says. "We can't just gather everyone in this one room..."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Iku:

> Shake our head to snap ourselves out of the confusion.
> "Apologies, Eldest Daughter, I confused myself over something unrelated. I hope you understand."
> Scoop Tenshi up in our arms in front of us.

[Philosopher]

Seki
>"Then we can light the other fire places and let them thaw."

>Did our fire burn our maid hat?

>"It's too bad we can wrap ourselves in the flames.  Does it actually feel like regular fire to everyone?"

[Neovereign]

Iku:

> Shake our head to snap ourselves out of the confusion.

>"It's too bad we can wrap ourselves in the flames.  Does it actually feel like regular fire to everyone?"

Iku:

> "I don't know what's been bothering you, but if you're ready to go, then lets."
> You pick Tenshi up. She seems to hold no objections.

Seki:

> "Oh. I guess that works."
> It hasn't.
> "It hardly feels different from normal fire." The fairies say.
> "A bit different, maybe." Flandre speaks.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Iku:

> "It is something we can perhaps discuss on the trip, if you wish."
> Turn back to the humans.
> "We will be back when we can. In the meantime, again, please do not do what I am about to do."
> Waltz over the edge and begin attempting to float out into the open again.

[Neovereign]

Iku:

> Turn back to the humans.
> "We will be back when we can. In the meantime, again, please do not do what I am about to do."
> Waltz over the edge and begin attempting to float out into the open again.

Iku:

> You trail over the edge and start to descend.
> Clouds block your view of what's further down. It feels a bit cold though.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Iku:

> "Hmm, oddly chilly. Are you feeling that as well?"

Aya:

> Can we feel those presences moving?

[Neovereign]

Iku:

> "Hmm, oddly chilly. Are you feeling that as well?"

Aya:

> Can we feel those presences moving?

Iku:

> "A bit. No problem though."
> Retrieving her Scarlet sword, Tenshi seems to part the clouds, as well as the Chilly feeling.

Aya:

> You feel the wind being disturbed above.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Iku:

> "Ah, thank you."
> What can we see below us now?

Aya:

> "...I think I might have made semi-contact with someone outside. Pardon me a moment."
> If we're not presently holding Yukari, scoop her back up. Then fly in the direction that we feel the wind disturbance.

[Philosopher]

Seki
>"What feels different about it?"

[Neovereign]

Iku:

> "Ah, thank you."
> What can we see below us now?

Aya:

> "...I think I might have made semi-contact with someone outside. Pardon me a moment."
> If we're not presently holding Yukari, scoop her back up. Then fly in the direction that we feel the wind disturbance.

Seki
>"What feels different about it?"

Iku:

> An upside down building.

Aya:

> You fly out and up.
> Ah. The celestial and her bother.

Seki:

> "I'd say if I knew." She frowns a bit.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Iku:

> "Hmm, that's odd. Might that be what we're looking for?"
> Aim our descent toward the building.

Aya:

> "There!"
> Try giving the celestial a wind-order to move towards the crow tengu near the Shining Needle Castle that's carrying the gap youkai.

[Neovereign]

Iku:

> "Hmm, that's odd. Might that be what we're looking for?"
> Aim our descent toward the building.

Aya:

> "There!"
> Try giving the celestial a wind-order to move towards the crow tengu near the Shining Needle Castle that's carrying the gap youkai.

Iku:

> Another idea. To-
> Ah.  Those two.
> "great. Yukari herself came by huh..." Tenshi frowns.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Iku:

> Aim our descent for the tengu and gap youkai.
> "It would appear so."
> Frown a bit.
> "But that makes this situation even more curious, don't you think? Why is she being carried, and why does she need rescue? Surely she could simply gap herself to safety? There must be more to this than meets the eye."

[Philosopher]

Seki
>Nod

>"Is there anything that anyone needs or wants before I go to help thaw everyone?"

[Neovereign]

Iku:

> Aim our descent for the tengu and gap youkai.
> "It would appear so."
> Frown a bit.
> "But that makes this situation even more curious, don't you think? Why is she being carried, and why does she need rescue? Surely she could simply gap herself to safety? There must be more to this than meets the eye."

Seki
>Nod

>"Is there anything that anyone needs or wants before I go to help thaw everyone?"

Iku:

> You continue floating towards the two.
> "Maybe she's screwed up somewhere with all the human's suddenly in heaven." Tenshi says.
> "What's this about heaven?" Yukari questions.

Seki:

> the only responses you get are shaking heads.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya, Iku:

> Can we hear through the barrier?

[Philosopher]

Seki
>Turn to the fairy. "Can you show me where hearths and wood are?"

[Neovereign]

Aya, Iku:

> Can we hear through the barrier?

Seki
>Turn to the fairy. "Can you show me where hearths and wood are?"

Iku:

> Barrier?

Aya:

> They seem to be inside it with you in the first place.

Seki:

> "Hurts and wood?"
> "I know the mistress can make crosses, but I haven't heard about stakes."
> "She said hurts, not hearts."
> "Stakes do hurt vampires though. I think."
> "Only if you drive it into their heart."
> "Can they even eat steak from their chest?"
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Hey, wait, how'd you two get in here?!"
> Knock on the barrier with a foot.

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "Hey, wait, how'd you two get in here?!"
> Knock on the barrier with a foot.

Aya:

> You tap the side barrier.
> "From above, obviously. Seems like you're flying just fine." Tenshi comments.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Iku:

> Noting that the tengu's foot seems to be hitting something, try passing through the space above where she is kicking.

[Philosopher]

Seki
>Imagine Remilia eating from a giant mouth in her chest.  Welp, there's nightmare fuel.

>"Hearth, not hurt.  It means fireplace."
