Reimu Quest (Part 9)

[Hello Purvis]

>"I wonder if this is Gensokyo?"
>Let's start back toward Sanae's world.

[日巫子]

>"I wonder if this is Gensokyo?"
>Let's start back toward Sanae's world.

> "Probably," Sanae says.  The two of you start flying back, although it will probably take a little while before you return to where you came from.

[Sect]

> Talk while flying. "So when your world bumped into Gensokyo, it cut off the loop... and it bumped Gensokyo into the future. Not sure how we'll be able to use this, but at least we can see what happened for ourselves."

> Talk while flying. "So when your world bumped into Gensokyo, it cut off the loop... and it bumped Gensokyo into the future. Not sure how we'll be able to use this, but at least we can see what happened for ourselves."

> You keep flying.  Already, you feel like you've gotten a bit closer to the dream world.
> Sanae looks into the void.  "Why not just push it back?"

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Well, for one thing, it felt dangerous to touch. The other thing is, we'd need to engineer some way to keep them from colliding again.
>Look around the void. Do we see anything that strikes as the aftermath of any kind of collision? Do either of the spheres seem to bear any kind of markings or damage?

>Look around the void. Do we see anything that strikes as the aftermath of any kind of collision? Do either of the spheres seem to bear any kind of markings or damage?

> "It seemed okay for me to touch," says Sanae.
> You look around the void.  Nothing seems too out of the ordinary, and neither of the spheres look damaged.

[Sect]

> "Chalk it up to you being a great goddess and me being a lowly shrine maiden, then. Unless you're volunteering to stand in between those two for the rest of eternity, we should probably work up a better solution."

[日巫子]

> "Chalk it up to you being a great goddess and me being a lowly shrine maiden, then. Unless you're volunteering to stand in between those two for the rest of eternity, we should probably work up a better solution."

> "Where'd you get that idea from?" Sanae grumbles.  Before you know it, you've reached the tunnel again.  Sanae lands in the entrance, tucks her wings around her shoulders, and starts walking.

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>Thinking on it, didn't we see roads kinda like this in the lunar capital?

[日巫子]

>Thinking on it, didn't we see roads kinda like this in the lunar capital?

> You think back to the Lunar Capitol.  You can't remember if they had roads like this, because you were never really in the city.

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"I wonder if it was a real collision, or more like their auras got in each other's way? Neither of them looked damaged to me, or felt that way."
>"What kind of carts work on these roads, anyways? Seems like you could really get a horse going, but it'd be hard on his hooves."

[日巫子]

>"I wonder if it was a real collision, or more like their auras got in each other's way? Neither of them looked damaged to me, or felt that way."
>"What kind of carts work on these roads, anyways? Seems like you could really get a horse going, but it'd be hard on his hooves."

> "Dunno."  Sanae keeps walking.  "And Outside World vehicles.  I don't feel like talking about it."

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Oh. Okay. I was going to try to see if I could maybe make something to get us to the other side faster."

[日巫子]

>"Oh. Okay. I was going to try to see if I could maybe make something to get us to the other side faster."

> "Other side of what?"

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Where this whole thing is supposed to loop around to."

[日巫子]

>"Where this whole thing is supposed to loop around to."

> "The tunnel's supposed to just loop back to the road," says Sanae.  The entrance of the tunnel is near.

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Oh! It sounded like it looped to the other side of the world. Huh. Are there any other tunnels like that?"

[日巫子]

>"Oh! It sounded like it looped to the other side of the world. Huh. Are there any other tunnels like that?"

> "A few.  It doesn't matter."  Sanae steps through the entrance to the tunnel and onto the road.

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Wonder if they all lead out there now?"

[日巫子]

>"Wonder if they all lead out there now?"

> "Probably."

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Mmm. I think I know who we need to ask for help. We ought to find Eirin."

[日巫子]

>"Mmm. I think I know who we need to ask for help. We ought to find Eirin."

> "Why her?"

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Because she's supposed to be a great sage. And, if I recall right, had a spell or charm or something that was able to seal Gensokyo away from the moon. It was just a little bit before you guys first came here. So, I'm thinking she probably would have some idea how all this works."

[日巫子]

> "Oh.  Then wouldn't she have done it already?"

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"I am not sure how much she even knows about the situation. But, if we find her here and let her know she's dreaming..."

[日巫子]

>"I am not sure how much she even knows about the situation. But, if we find her here and let her know she's dreaming..."

> "Well, have fun with that..." says Sanae, as she continues to walk along the road.

> _

[Sect]

> "And if she doesn't, I still have a few other ideas. Keine, Yuuka, some winged sisters..."

[日巫子]

> "And if she doesn't, I still have a few other ideas. Keine, Yuuka, some winged sisters..."

> "Uh huh."  Sanae doesn't seem like she's paying attention.

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"What've you got planned?"
>Don't sound accusative, just inquisitive.

[日巫子]

>"What've you got planned?"
>Don't sound accusative, just inquisitive.

> "Dunno...stuff, I guess," Sanae says.
