Reimu Quest (Part 10)

[Hello Purvis]

>"Yep. Good, you know the basics, at least."

[日巫子]

>"Yep. Good, you know the basics, at least."

> "And?"  Yuuka looks at you expectantly.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Somehow, that universe rammed into our universe, and everything ended up like you've seen. Apparently, we also got knocked out of time, and ended up far enough into the future that the outside world had already been destroyed."

> "I'm not surprised.  I wasn't expecting that girl to know any better than to think of her world as anything but a playground.  Is she aware of it?"

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Of what happened? Yeah."

[日巫子]

>"Of what happened? Yeah."

> "And what else?"

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Well, no one knew this except for Yukari. Which she conveniently kept for herself while everyone else was faffing around trying to figure out what was happening and how to solve it. Then when I finally found her, one of the two solutions she proposed was, and I use her own words, have Sanae "removed from the picture". You can see why I wouldn't agree with that."

> "Ahh...ah, yes, you're Sanae's 'friend'," Yuuka says.  "And the other solution?"

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Wouldn't have addressed the problems at hand. Anyways, I started looking into other ideas, and found that Yukari didn't really know much about the situation at hand. Then she stole my orb when it became clear that releasing its power might work. Anyways, that left us stranded for awhile, while I looked here and there, trying to find information. While searching the dream world, I came across a weird mural; tell me if anything in it is familiar."
>Describe it to her.

> You explain the situation, and then describe the mural.
> "Nothing rings a bell," says Yuuka as she stretches her arms.  "How strange, though.  Yukari?  Get in the way of an incident?"

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"I'm half convinced she let it happen, to be honest, in order to try to leverage things. Anyways, I finally clawed my way back to her after that, and ended up showing it to her, since she made some gestures of wanting to actually clean up this mess. Upon seeing it, she went after Sanae, saying something about pushing the dream world away. And that's what I really want to talk with you about."

> "Why come to me, though?" Yuuka asks with a smile.  "I never got the impression you were a big fan, you know?"

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Because you're the only person I know of and can find that has any knowledge about this dream stuff. Heh, I'll be honest though, Yukari's behavior lately has done a lot to make me think better of you in comparison."

> "Oh, I'm flattered," says Yuuka.  "Just tell me what you need."

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"First this is whether that actually work, as far as you know? Yukari seems to think it'd relieve pressure off the borders, which sounds reasonable. And also that it would return us to our proper point in time, which sounds unlikely. But is what she's thinking actually doable, having Sanae move the whole place? And, is it safe?"

> "Hmm, I've never heard of anyone trying that before," says Yuuka.  "If it's just her world, Sanae should be fine."

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>Nod.
>"And if it's not just hers?"

[日巫子]

>Nod.
>"And if it's not just hers?"

> "Then there's no telling what would happen," Yuuka says, and giggles.

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Is there any good way to tell if it really is just Sanae's world?"

[日巫子]

>"Is there any good way to tell if it really is just Sanae's world?"

> "You could just go out and see for yourself."

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"What would I be looking for, then?"

[日巫子]

>"What would I be looking for, then?"

> "Anything that isn't Sanae's world," says Yuuka.

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"How would I tell, though?"

[日巫子]

>"How would I tell, though?"

> "That would be up to Sanae.  Only she could tell."

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>Nod.
>"Okay. This may be related, it may not be. But, when you dream, and then you realize you're dreaming, you can do things, right? Like, Sanae gives herself a bunch of wings."

[日巫子]

>Nod.
>"Okay. This may be related, it may not be. But, when you dream, and then you realize you're dreaming, you can do things, right? Like, Sanae gives herself a bunch of wings."

> "What you can do is only limited by your imagination and creativity.  Do you consider yourself a dull person?"

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Not especially. But I was kinda on business. Now...let's say I did something there, such as put feathers on the back of your hands, is that supposed to curse you, which follows you into the waking world?"

[日巫子]

>"Not especially. But I was kinda on business. Now...let's say I did something there, such as put feathers on the back of your hands, is that supposed to curse you, which follows you into the waking world?"

> "That's possible," Yuuka says.  "Whatever did you do to deserve that?"

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Nothing. But I had to purify myself after I woke up. And I kinda coughed out the feathers."

[日巫子]

>"Nothing. But I had to purify myself after I woke up. And I kinda coughed out the feathers."

> "Oh, that sounds terrible."  But Yuuka's gleeful tone of voice doesn't indicate that she feels sorry at all.
> Then, she stops smiling and says with narrowed eyes, "But you've learned that things can be brought from there to here.  Don't take that lightly."
