Reisen Quest: A Z-Machine Adventure

[Hello Purvis]

> Check stockings for anything unusual
> Take stockings to a warm place to dry them. Maybe place them near a stove in the kitchen
> Whatever drying method is tried, only try it on one pair of stockings at a time. We wouldn't want to ruin all of them in case something goes wrong

>Your stockings do not seem to have been tampered with in any way that you can determine.
>You take them to the kitchen, dashing through the courtyard once again. This is an appropriate choice, as laundry is usually done here every other day as it is. You find a nice stove and hold them over it until they warm up and dry out a bit.
>You then return to your room to to try them on. You select the sheerest pair and then slip the warmest-looking pair over them. Thankfully, there are no ill effects. You should be able to go outside without any real ill effects. Though flight would still be ill-advised for more than a short time, or when it's windy out. You decide to put the other pairs away for now, unless you come up with a specific use for them.

> Guard stockings as they dry. This could all be one large trap.

>Thankfully, nothing happened that you noticed. You think Tewi must have left for the day.

> Gunwink at the mirror and see if it looks better with stockings
> Show off retrieved stockings to Kaguya and Eirin

[Pesco]

> Heave a sigh of relief on the feeling of having stockings again
> Gunwink at the mirror and see if it looks better with stockings
> Show off retrieved stockings to Kaguya and Eirin
> We wanted sunglasses, right? Head out for Kourindou

>You'd hate to have to be trapped in the house all day.
>You attempt another gunwink, and decide that bare legs are definitely not why it causes people to laugh at you.
>You head outside, to the courtyard, and show your stalkings off to Kaguya. She nods appreciatively, then asks, "Are you heading out for the day, then? If you see Murasa, could you let her know that the bag she left during the heatwave is still here?"
>You wonder if Rinnosuke could help you get some sunglasses.

> Consider visiting the Moriya shrine to try borrow a pair of shades off Suwako, she can :suwakodwi:

[Hello Purvis]

>I WANT YOUR SOUL
>Ask Kaguya if it's okay for us to take Murasa's bag to her
>Add Quest: Find Murasa

>Too bad, princess!
>You ask if it's alright to take the bag to her. "It would be nice to have some company, don't you think?" Kaguya says. Then she produces a small back from her sleeves and offers it to you. "I imagine you'll want to go shopping."
>You obtain: Bag of Fragrant Herbs

[Thata no Guykoro]

>Thank Kaguya
>Depart for Rinnosuke's shop
>Check and examine quests

[Hello Purvis]

>Thank Kaguya
>Depart for Rinnosuke's shop
>Check and examine quests

>She smiles at you, and gestures for you to take your leave.
>You leave Eientei, taking a straight east to head outside.
>You enter the bamboo forest. It is dead and brown this time of year, with a healthy coat of snow covering the ground. Thankfully, you are familiar with its wily ways, and can find your way through it pretty easily. If you go east, you will soon leave it and come to the Forest of Magic and be well on your way to Kourindou. To the south is Mokou's part of the forest. Obvious exits are north, east, west, and south.
>Your Current Quests Are:
>Have you Seen a Sailor?
>Kaguya asked you to find Murasa and tell her to come get the thing she left behind.
>You Self-Appointed Goals are:
>Prove That I'm Not a Useless Rabbit, Good Only For My Sex Appeal
>People have been talking, you gotta do something about it.
>Lunar-Eyed Blues (Brothers)
>You have crazy eyes, and it really freaks some people out. Some dark glasses could only improve you social life.
>Huggle Kaguya
>It's going to be one of those days.

[yoshicookiezeus]

> Go east towards Kourindou
> Ponder where Murasa could be found

[Pesco]

> You forgot to huggle Kaguya just now
> Sense for a disturbance in the force.

[Hello Purvis]

> Go east towards Kourindou
> Ponder where Murasa could be found

>You continue eastwards, and soon leave the bamboo behind for the Forest of Magic. As anticipated, you come to a road shortly.
>You are on a worn dirt road leading through the forest. The trees are leafless and bare; with snow sticking to them. The road continues to the east. A signpost sits along the side of the road. To the north, you see a little path leading off to a cottage. Normally the foilage would obscure the cottage, but at this time of year is is quite visible. Obvious exits are North, East, and West.

> You forgot to huggle Kaguya just now
> Sense for a disturbance in the force.

>You were there, she was there. I don't enter the commands, I just parse 'em.
>Why would you do this?

[Kilgamayan]

>Shoryuken in celebration of getting stockings back
>Head north to cottage

[Pesco]

> Enable auto action: Perform action HUGGLE [IF] character KAGUYA is present [AND] Reisen's status allows the action to be performed.
> Be wary of traps.

[Hello Purvis]

>Shoryuken in celebration of getting stockings back
>Head north to cottage

>You attempt a celebratory Shoryuken, but mess up the inputs and perform a Mist Finer instead. And not even a good one, as you lack the correct tools.
>You head north.
> You approach the cottage. It is a modestly-sized, white-washed and L-shaped affair with some creeping ivy here and there, but otherwise well maintained. The roof has a spectacular amount of snow piled on it. Its front door faces east. The yard is covered in snow, and seems unadorned. You notice a path leading west behind the house, and another to the north that pushes through some foliage. . Obvious exits are WestA, West B, North, and South.

> Enable auto action: Perform action HUGGLE [IF] character KAGUYA is present [AND] Reisen's status allows the action to be performed.
> Be wary of traps.

>Insufficient memory. Command aborted.
>You look the yard over. You don't see anything that looks like a trap.

[yoshicookiezeus]

> Knock on cottage door

[Hello Purvis]

> Knock on cottage door

>You knock on the door.
>You wait a bit, then knock again.
>You wait a little longer, and give it a true and proper thumping.
>It seems no one is home.

>_

[Pesco]

> Kick down the door like how the cop shows do it.

[Kilgamayan]

>Search memory banks for knowledge of who resides in this cottage

[Hello Purvis]

> Kick down the door like how the cop shows do it.

>You give the door a good kick! It turns out the door is apparently locked, and gives no indication of moving. Thankfully, you do not hurt yourself in the attempt.

>Search memory banks for knowledge of who resides in this cottage

>You know a few people live on the edges of the forest. This is probably either Marisa or Alice's home.

>_

[Pesco]

> Search for a back door. Both of them are witches and real witches do not use front doors. Granny Weatherwax would frown if they did.

[Dead Princess Sakana]

> If no backdoors are to be found, look for unlocked windows
> If there are unlocked windows, climb in

[Hello Purvis]

> Search for a back door. Both of them are witches and real witches do not use front doors. Granny Weatherwax would frown if they did.

>You circle around the house. You find a back door around the tail of the L-shape.

> If no backdoors are to be found, look for unlocked windows
> If there are unlocked windows, climb in

>You find a few windows, but you cannot tell from a glance if they are unlocked or not.

>_

[Pesco]

> Do what Granny Ogg would do when faced with a back door

[Hello Purvis]

> Do what Granny Ogg would do when faced with a back door

>You are not Granny Ogg. As such, you will have to describe the action properly.

>_

[Dead Princess Sakana]

> Knock again, just to be sure
> If no response, try to kick it like the front door

[Pesco]

> Kick down the door jovially and search the hiding spots for men. You never know when you might get lucky.

[Hello Purvis]

> Knock again, just to be sure
> If no response, try to kick it like the front door

> Kick down the door jovially and search the hiding spots for men. You never know when you might get lucky.

>You knock again. No answer. It seems that she is well and truly not home.
>You kick the door, and find the same problem as before. Apparently this person is well aware of the consequences of living close to where Tewi does.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

>Check each window to see if it is unlocked

[Pesco]

> What are we doing by this cottage anyway?

[Fightest]

> Apparently breaking and entering. Why are we breaking and entering, we're a respectable and upstanding citizen?
> Stop this tomfoolery at once.
> Come back later.
> Keep going to Kourindou.
