Neo Gensokyo Quest - Part 6

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "Nothing super important. I was simply wondering slash hoping if you'd be willing to join me for a while."

Aya:

> "I'm already accompanying the Eldest Daughter. We do have our own situations to get through, and I believe she realized such when she left. You don't have to worry about us, though. Just continue your focus."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "I'd be perfectly happy to bring you both with me, Lady Nagae. And, to be clear, I ask because I genuinely desire your company. No more, no less."

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "I'd be perfectly happy to bring you both with me, Lady Nagae. And, to be clear, I ask because I genuinely desire your company. No more, no less."

Aya:

> "I'm sorry for having to decline, then." Iku lowers her head a bit.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> Look a bit sad.
> "Ah. I'm sorry for putting you in a difficult position."
> Give Iku a hug, at least (squishing her into our chest).

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> Look a bit sad.
> "Ah. I'm sorry for putting you in a difficult position."
> Give Iku a hug, at least (squishing her into our chest).

Aya:

> Iku returns the hug.
> "Good luck with your troubles." She separates.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "You as well."
> Based on the wind, where have the tsukumogami gone?

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "You as well."
> Based on the wind, where have the tsukumogami gone?

Aya:

> To another deeper room.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> Well, we were productive here, but socially this was a bust. How irritating...
> Head back to Seija.

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> Well, we were productive here, but socially this was a bust. How irritating...
> Head back to Seija.

Aya:

> You start back outside, passing by Tenshi on the way back.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Oh, hey. Iku's back that way."
> Gesture the way we came.
> "I wanted both of your companies for my travels, but from what she said, it sounds like you're both busy."

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "Oh, hey. Iku's back that way."
> Gesture the way we came.
> "I wanted both of your companies for my travels, but from what she said, it sounds like you're both busy."

Aya:

> "Yeah, it's this annoying business with heaven an me being called an angel of god and such. It's whatever." Tenshi continues on.
._

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Huh. Alright then, hope it isn't too inconvenient for you. Let me know if you need any help."
> Unless Tenshi stops us, continue heading back to Seija.

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "Huh. Alright then, hope it isn't too inconvenient for you. Let me know if you need any help."
> Unless Tenshi stops us, continue heading back to Seija.

Aya:

> "Hm." Tenshi doesn't stop.
> You return to Seija's group.
> "Did you get what you wanted there?" Seija questions.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Not what I wanted, but what I was going to get. The tsukumogami group found Sumireko, though. Apparently she's asleep and won't wake up. She and the other Outside humans have been taken to the land of the backdoors, where just about everyone else is."

---

Seki:

> Is the human still unconscious?
> Has anyone had any new ideas?

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "Not what I wanted, but what I was going to get. The tsukumogami group found Sumireko, though. Apparently she's asleep and won't wake up. She and the other Outside humans have been taken to the land of the backdoors, where just about everyone else is."

Seki:

> Is the human still unconscious?
> Has anyone had any new ideas?

Aya:

> "Shall we get heading there, then?" Seija speaks. "Maybe we should call up Raiko to, too, though."

Seki:

> Yes.
> No. They've mostly been thinking how she got like this instead.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Sure, if you want. The three of them went off somewhere with a purpose, though I'm not sure why. We can try to chase after them if you like."

---

Seki:

> "Hey, so, um...how...allowed are youkai to try to do things to this human to possibly help?"

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "Sure, if you want. The three of them went off somewhere with a purpose, though I'm not sure why. We can try to chase after them if you like."

---

Seki:

> "Hey, so, um...how...allowed are youkai to try to do things to this human to possibly help?"

Aya:

> "Shouldn't they speak for the Tsukumogami? Or maybe that Kogasa girl."

Seki:

> You can immediately feel Reimu's frown...
> "Ahem, she's been handled by some youkai before." Marisa comments, breaking Reimu's gaze. "So she should be pretty tough."
> "Why don't you just go to sleep and look for this Doremy? Combine both of those things?" Remilia questions.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "We can certainly ask them if they want to. They might pick someone to do so, or they might defer to Mom and trust she has their best interests at heart."
> Give Seija a wink and a grin. then offer her a hand.
> "Come on, let's go find them."

---

Seki:

> Was that sleeping suggestion directed at us?
> If so: "Uh...I could try? I don't know anything about this Doremy though."

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "We can certainly ask them if they want to. They might pick someone to do so, or they might defer to Mom and trust she has their best interests at heart."

Seki:

Seija:

> "I'm not anyone's mom." She sighs, annoyed, though you think she feels a bit otherwise. "I'm sure you don't need us to find them."

Seki:

> You believe so.
> "She's a baku. Looks..."
> "Can't you just find people with your abilities?" Patchouli asks.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Probably not, but traveling in a group is more enjoyable. Plus you can all go to Lady Matara's realm at once if you come with."

---

Seki:

> "I can locate if I have her full name. Getting to her is trickier."

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "Probably not, but traveling in a group is more enjoyable. Plus you can all go to Lady Matara's realm at once if you come with."

---

Seki:

> "I can locate if I have her full name. Getting to her is trickier."

Aya:

> "And we can't just go there now?"

Seki:

> "Doremy Sweet, I think." Reisen says.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> Retract our hand and turn so our back is facing Seija.
> "If you'd rather do that, just head on in there."

---

Seki:

> With the intention of locating her, state the name "Doremy Sweet" out loud.

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> Retract our hand and turn so our back is facing Seija.
> "If you'd rather do that, just head on in there."

---

Seki:

> With the intention of locating her, state the name "Doremy Sweet" out loud.

Aya:

> You turn, and it seems like she takes up that option.

Seki:

> You call out Doremy's name...
> ...
> Nothing seems to happen? No indication on where she might be...
> Ah, there is-
> Gone again...
> But then back, elsewhere?
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Aww..."
> Fly back in the direction we remember the tsukumogami going, in pursuit of them. Use wind tracking to locate them.

---

Seki:

> Frown in confusion.
> "What the...?"

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "Aww..."
> Fly back in the direction we remember the tsukumogami going, in pursuit of them. Use wind tracking to locate them.

---

Seki:

> Frown in confusion.
> "What the...?"

Aya:

> You head for the group again, finding them starting for the edge of the castle.
> You manage to catch up. And it seems all the instruments are here still. Iku and Tenshi too.
> "We barely moved. What's up?" Raiko questions.

Seki:

> "What happened?" Patchouli questions.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Seija mused on the idea of one of you speaking on behalf of tsukumogami."

---

Seki:

> "One moment, I can tell where she is. The next, gone. Back and forth..."

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "Seija mused on the idea of one of you speaking on behalf of tsukumogami."

---

Seki:

> "One moment, I can tell where she is. The next, gone. Back and forth..."

Aya:

> "Hm... Well we're only instruments. The other kinds of tools wouldn't get much representation with us..." Raiko considers.

Seki:

> "She's probably heading back and forth between the dream world and somewhere else, then." Reisen says. "Maybe she's busy."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Is there someone else you think might be a better pick?"

---

Seki:

> "...I don't think I'd be able to get to her, if that's the case."

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "Is there someone else you think might be a better pick?"

---

Seki:

> "...I don't think I'd be able to get to her, if that's the case."

Aya:

> "That umbrella girl maybe. If anyone we know. She's dependable."

Seki:

> "We got here pretty fast. You might be able to chase her down." Remilia considers.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Well, if that's what you want..."

---

Seki:

> "At the rate she's blinking in and out? I don't know..."
