>You examine your surroundings, nothing has changed.

>This time, try imagining Eientei, how it looks and how did the grass feel, what we felt and heard, then with those thoughts in mind try to dream once again.
>You picture Eientei in your mind trying to get as detailed as an image as possible...
>You try to dream again, but before you do so, you notice the mental image start to flicker between it's normal state and a peculiar, shimmering state that looks somewhat like the effect you see when you look at a boundary.

>You attempt to open a tear in the boundary.
>Surprisingly, it works! A tear materializes in front of you, near the ground, it's somewhat stable, but it's only big enough for you to crawl through. It's definitely taking a lot more energy to maintain this than normal.
>You think you could make the tear larger, but it would likely sacrifice both its stability and the time you can hold it open.

Well, we probably DO need to rest for a little bit... we can either hide in the bamboo forest and try to avoid notice, or see if Renko is still in Eientei, as we're already here. Even if she's not, we could sit with Sumireko for a bit as we catch our breath, so to speak.

...well, we just saw Renko there a bit ago, so she's moooost likely still here. And if we're already here... >.> Unless the other players think we shouldn't stir the pot. (We did have that bad feeling, though.)

...okay, yeah, we felt weird and bad, are we just going to walk away when we're already stuck in Gensokyo for a minute? NOPE

>Rather than exit, ask if we can visit our friend Sumireko staying in one of the rooms. (We're close enough to a friend, right? XD)
<mauvecow> see this is how evil works in reality, it just wears you down with bureaucracy until you don't care anymore
