Myon Quest - Scattered Souls

[Kilgamayan]

> "Hmm. Can you describe how it feels? I've never been on the receiving end before."

> "Hmm. Can you describe how it feels? I've never been on the receiving end before."

> "The possession I felt was like being filled with a power that wasn't yours, but you felt like you could make use of it like it was, I think. It's been a while. Right now, I guess I feel like something has a hold on me and is taking pieces. Like if I didn't notice, they would've taken a lot more. Ah, it's like eating with friends sometimes."

[Kilgamayan]

Both bodies:

> Frown a bit.

Myon:

> Do we feel...'more', for lack of a better term?

Youmu:

> "You mean, it feels like I'm taking from you?"

Myon:

Youmu:

> "You mean, it feels like I'm taking from you?"

> You guess you feel stronger, rather than the mermaid and water feeling lighter.

> "A bit. It doesn't seem like much though. Hmm..." Waka thinks as you start passing by the Human Village. "Maybe it's like a newbie trying to fish me up. I. The water, I'm much stronger than one would think, so I can easily pull someone trying to fish me up in instead of getting pulled out. Of course I don't actually do that!" She explains.

[Kilgamayan]

Youmu:

> "Of course. Um, does that mean I should add more water for you? I probably could at this point, carrying you has gradually gotten easier for some reason."

Myon:

> Try floating into the air a little bit.

Myon:

> Try floating into the air a little bit.

> "This much is fine. It doesn't feel too bad."

> You try, and find that you are capable of floating off the ground a bit.
> You wonder if this keeps up, if you could carry another person in you and still float.

[Kilgamayan]

> Does the volume of water within Myon seem to have decreased since we left the lake behind?

Myon:

> Descend back to the ground and resume walking along with Youmu.

Youmu:

> "Alright. Ah, there's the Human Village over there, by the way."
> Gesture in the direction of the village.

> No, you don't believe so.
> "I've been there before with my friends." Wakasagihime answers. "Though we can't go often since it's the human village, and most humans aren't fine with seeing youkai so freely roaming the village."

> You return to walking.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Youmu:

> "Ah, that answers another question I was going to ask. Would you want to go visit any of your land-dwelling friends as part of this journey?"
> "Oh, and do you want to try using your ability again? With how things have changed, I wonder if anything different might happen now."

Myon:

> Do our best to will ourselves to be solid and not let things pass through us from outside or inside.

> "They did visit me a while ago actually. Today, still."
> "I don't know. This doesn't feel like a safe thing to try when the water could leak out of it goes wrong..."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Youmu:

> Nod.
> "That's fair. I wouldn't want to put you at risk like that. Well, maybe you and I can wander the Human Village later, then, if you want. I'm half-human, so maybe the humans will be less tense."

[Neovereign]

Youmu:

> Nod.
> "That's fair. I wouldn't want to put you at risk like that. Well, maybe you and I can wander the Human Village later, then, if you want. I'm half-human, so maybe the humans will be less tense."

> "I'm not human enough to pass though, so I doubt it'd work."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "It may be good enough that you're in my company. But we don't have to if you don't want to."

[Neovereign]

> "It may be good enough that you're in my company. But we don't have to if you don't want to."

> "My friends can easily pass as humans too. So I'm the odd one out who'd ruin things if I tried."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Oh, I see. That is unfortunate."
> "Who are your friends, anyway? Perhaps I know some of them."

[Neovereign]

> "Oh, I see. That is unfortunate."
> "Who are your friends, anyway? Perhaps I know some of them."

> "The ones I hang out with the most are Sekibanki and Kagerou."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Are we familiar with those names?

[Neovereign]

> Are we familiar with those names?

> You don't recall them.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Mmm. I'm afraid those names don't sound familiar. I would be glad to meet them if you wanted to visit them, though. If you know where they live."

[Neovereign]

> "Mmm. I'm afraid those names don't sound familiar. I would be glad to meet them if you wanted to visit them, though. If you know where they live."

> "Well, I know one of them frequents the village, but the other is in the bamboo forest. Both tough places to get in and out of without causing issues."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> How are we at traversing the Bamboo Forest?
> "Understandable. I have been in the Bamboo Forest myself before, and it is indeed as you say."

[Neovereign]

> How are we at traversing the Bamboo Forest?
> "Understandable. I have been in the Bamboo Forest myself before, and it is indeed as you say."

> You don't know your way through it too well...
> "My friends usually visit me instead."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Youmu:

> "Well, we could certainly try visiting there, if you decide you want that."

Myon:

> Lightly bob up and down a little bit.

Youmu:

> "At this point, we're entirely on whatever schedule works for you, because it'd be no trouble for me to just go about my days like this."
> Adopt a thinking expression.
> "...Come to think of it, it'd be nice to have a friend along with me all the time. Though that wouldn't be very fair to you."

> "Oh I couldn't intrude in your days every day like this. I already take up my friends time so much whenever they come visit me."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Myon:

> Are we still feeling light we're getting stronger and/or our passenger is getting lighter?

Youmu:

> "Oh, you're not intruding at all. Myon doesn't normally go around carrying things, so you're not taking up any space. And my two halves can separate a decent amount if needed."

[Neovereign]

Myon:

> Are we still feeling light we're getting stronger and/or our passenger is getting lighter?

Youmu:

> "Oh, you're not intruding at all. Myon doesn't normally go around carrying things, so you're not taking up any space. And my two halves can separate a decent amount if needed."

> You don't feel things getting lighter anymore. But it already feels like you're hardly carrying anything at this point.

> "Still, I'd be in the middle of your conversations and everything. I'm fine just staying in my lake."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> How close are we to the Hakurei Shrine?
> "Oh, I wouldn't care about that as long as you didn't rudely interrupt or something."

[Neovereign]

> How close are we to the Hakurei Shrine?
> "Oh, I wouldn't care about that as long as you didn't rudely interrupt or something."

> You'd say about halfway there.
> "Still, i wouldn't feel comfortable with it "
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Nod.
> "That's fine. You don't need to worry about me, but if it's for your own comfort, that's important."

[Neovereign]

> Nod.
> "That's fine. You don't need to worry about me, but if it's for your own comfort, that's important."

> "Yeah..."
> The shrine isn't too far now. You could try flying the rest of the way.
