> "I admit I have no real reason to believe they are his, beyond his being a jeweler. But that is more than we can say for most other people we know. I figure he is as good a starting place as any. If they are not his, then he can at least tell us what the fourth gem is, so a visit would not be entirely without fruition."

>"Yeah, that's true," says Tenshi.
>You are mostly finished now. Just a tad more.

>Bhava Agra has descended into Gensokyo. The Dragon has tasked you with finding out why and fixing it. You have discovered the Poltergeist who has done it, and found she has done to to preserve her own existence.
>Imperial Ambitions
>Remilia has set about conquering and enslaving fallen parts of Bhava-Agra. This will probably have to be dealt with.
>There is a window. It seems to be getting into midafternoon.

>Quite. One should take pains not to begrudge Yuka without a very good reason.
>"Sure," says Tenshi.
>You take flight, and make your way toward Maribel and Renko's home once again. Thankfully, you don't encounter any problems along the way. Things seem fairly undisturbed there as you land nearby.

Normally there is a barrier between the two, but, for some reason, it is not currently there, and the gatekeeper on Makai's half appears to have abandoned their post years ago. This is how I returned to Gensokyo. However! I do not say this as an open invitation to visit there. Makai is a dangerous place, filled with untrusting and untrustworthy people. My primary goal upon my appearance there was an immediate escape, and I still only barely got out. You all saw how I looked last night."
