Myon Quest - Scattered Souls

[Kilgamayan]

> "I suppose. Anyway, shall we?"

[Neovereign]

> "I suppose. Anyway, shall we?"

> "We still don't have any leads on where else we should go." Miko speaks.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "We could try the lake?"

[Neovereign]

> "We could try the lake?"

> "I guess it's close enough. And we know the Hakurei Shrine is fine, so that should be a good place to check instead." Alice agrees.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Works."
> Head in the direction of the lake.
> "Miss Miko, you dabble in divine spirits, right? Do you have any ideas how I might be able to interact with people's spirits with my phantom half?"

[Neovereign]

> "Works."
> Head in the direction of the lake.
> "Miss Miko, you dabble in divine spirits, right? Do you have any ideas how I might be able to interact with people's spirits with my phantom half?"

> You start for the lake, the two following along.
> "In what ways do you mean?"
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "I'm not really sure. It's admittedly an open-ended question, but that's because it's an open-ended matter for me. I guess my goal in putting Aya's spirit and body into my phantom was to see if being in there would get them to recombine. Or if her spirit being in my phantom would combine her with my phantom and give her a replacement body, I guess."

> "Perhaps you would need someone who doesn't feel as independent. Though if you could find a spirit or such that is like that and doesn't want to remain a spirit or return to their body, who knows if they'll simply pass on in a few moments instead of be susceptible to such outcomes?"
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "...I guess I didn't just directly ask her if she wanted to try joining with my phantom to use it as a temporary body."

[Neovereign]

> "...I guess I didn't just directly ask her if she wanted to try joining with my phantom to use it as a temporary body."

> "Did you at least feel anything weird from her being inside you?"
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "A little something when her body went in, and a little something when I got her spirit in, which was a lot more difficult. Something related to my swords both times. I'm not really sure how to describe it."

[Neovereign]

> "A little something when her body went in, and a little something when I got her spirit in, which was a lot more difficult. Something related to my swords both times. I'm not really sure how to describe it."

> "Maybe that's where you got a connection, if any?"
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Through my swords, you mean?"

[Neovereign]

> "Through my swords, you mean?"

> Miko nods.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> What supernatural properties do our swords have?

[Neovereign]

> What supernatural properties do our swords have?

> Dispelling confusion and, well, being impressive in a few ways. Humans shouldn't be able to handle something like this.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Huh...I have no idea why they might be able to, with what I know about them..."

[Neovereign]

> "Huh...I have no idea why they might be able to, with what I know about them..."

> "Well what did you find out with them?" Miko questions.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "For this incident? Nothing."
> "...Well, there was the time my phantom came into contact with Mister Shopkeeper's body, and after getting a strange sensation and pulling away, I had a thought form about how 'they're sword sheathes'. Almost like it was someone else's thought about what I had with me that got suddenly planted into my head. I have no idea why it happened."

> "I suppose I'd be able to help better if I could witness such a thing.
> You've already passed by Kourindou though. You can see the lake and it's mist up ahead. Though, given the fairies flying about, maybe this place wasn't hit?
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Gesture at the fairies.
> "Looks like things are okay over here, at least."
> "Anyway, I'd be happy to demonstrate if we come across someone that's been separated. Or we could even try on you, if you're willing and Alice can re-separate you."

> "I certainly wouldn't want allegations that I'm the culprit to arise if I know how to do such." Alice argues.
> "Excuse me but, are you two seeing this?" Miko questions, heading ahead.
> "Hm?" Alice questions.
> She continues a bit further, before gesturing ahead.
> You... can't see back here. Thanks to the mist...
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Move forward to where she is and re-look.

[Neovereign]

> Move forward to where she is and re-look.

> You follow along and squint.
> ...
> Some fairies are struggling to hold something in their arms.
> Every few seconds, one of them drops to the floor, and another comes to take their place in hold-
> Ah, their spirits are coming out, too!
> The fairies are countering this by... taking out the fairies that fall. Though, those spirits are starting to attack the fairies back.
> With the struggle, you can see what's in the fairy's arms. It's a cat. A black cat, with two tails, and a weird ribbon on it's head. You think weird because it looks very strangely colored.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> How large or small is the cat? Could we carry it ourselves?
> "...Huh. That's...unexpected."
> "...Should we involve ourselves?"

[Neovereign]

> How large or small is the cat? Could we carry it ourselves?
> "...Huh. That's...unexpected."
> "...Should we involve ourselves?"

> It's a cat sized cat. Not kitten, but cat. You could easily carry it in one arm.
> "If I'm not mistaken, that's that Kasha from the underworld." Alice comments. "What's she doing up here?"
> "You've encountered it before?" Miko asks.
> "Yes, well, not exactly. But that is her, I believe. She has a humanoid form too, and can control spirits. I suppose she's our culprit, or at least-"
> "A likely candidate. Worth getting involved with either way, no?" Miko looks to you.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Does the cat have a visible spirit?

[Neovereign]

> Does the cat have a visible spirit?

> It does not.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Do we know of this person?
> "Sounds good enough to me."
> Begin walking toward the fairies with the cat.

[Neovereign]

> Do we know of this person?
> "Sounds good enough to me."
> Begin walking toward the fairies with the cat.

> You do not. You don't think you've met her before either.
> You approach the scene.
> "I don't think all of this is worth holding onto this stupid cat." A fairy argues.
> "I don't wanna just lose though!"
> "How do we win if it just keeps making us fall asleep?" Another fairy questions.
> "We should tire it out! There's plenty of us!"
