Sakuya Quest 5 - A Z-Machine Adventure

[Hello Purvis]

>"Auto-movers... i wonder how they work... could you try to explain it to me Mitsu ?"

>"Well, the basic idea is you make something that creates power, and use that power to get motion going," says Mitsu. "There's a whole buncha different ways and kinds. Then you just have 'em move the things you need to move. Easy ones just spin wheels, and you put the wheel on the ground and it'll move whatever it's attached to."

[Monarda]

>"Intriguing... i wonder if the mistress saw anything like this when she was still coming here."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Intriguing... i wonder if the mistress saw anything like this when she was still coming here."

>"I dunno," says Mitsu. "They didn't really get to be a thing you saw until after Apex was started. They're too attention-grabbing in Gensokyo itself."

[Monarda]

>"Yes i can understand, it must be wonderful to study so many contraptions right ?"
>Smile a bit.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Yes i can understand, it must be wonderful to study so many contraptions right ?"
>Smile a bit.

>"It's the making that's really worth it," says Mitsu.

[Monarda]

>"Hmm.... i wonder if this era has a machine capable of allowing me to do my work even quicker...."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Hmm.... i wonder if this era has a machine capable of allowing me to do my work even quicker...."

>"There's some cleaner things, at least," says Mitsu.

[Monarda]

>"I see..."
>Look again at Nue, what is she doing ?
>"Hey, there must be some notorious kappa who made incredible feats by then right ? Do you know any examples i might know ?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"I see..."
>Look again at Nue, what is she doing ?
>"Hey, there must be some notorious kappa who made incredible feats by then right ? Do you know any examples i might know ?"

>You glance over to see Nue is approaching.
>"Well, there was the time that we got to the moon, or close enough anyways," says Mitsu.
>"Sorry about that," Nue says, as she approaches the table.

>_

[Monarda]

>Turn to Nue.
>"No worries, you are a busy person as i can see."
>Turn back to Mitsu.
>"To the moon ? You mean the actual moon where the lunarians came from ?"

[Serela]

>"I've been there once, actually. Building a rocket to get there was quite the project!"

[Hello Purvis]

>Turn to Nue.
>"No worries, you are a busy person as i can see."
>Turn back to Mitsu.
>"To the moon ? You mean the actual moon where the lunarians came from ?"

>Nue nods. "Ready when you guys are."
>"Yep!" says Mitsu.

>"I've been there once, actually. Building a rocket to get there was quite the project!"

>"Huh, what?" says Mitsu.

>_

[Serela]

>"The Scarlet Devil Mansion sent a manned rocket to the moon once. Reimu Hakurei would probably remember."

[Hello Purvis]

>"The Scarlet Devil Mansion sent a manned rocket to the moon once. Reimu Hakurei would probably remember."

>"Seriously?" says Mitsu.
>"That's what they tell me, anyways," Nue says.
>"Huh," says the kappa.

[the old guy]

>"We were beaten uttlery by some stuck up bit-er, lunarian, unfortunately.

[Serela]

>Let's reword that a little to "We were beaten utterly by the lunarians, unfortunately."

[Hello Purvis]

>Let's reword that a little to "We were beaten utterly by the lunarians, unfortunately."

>"Oh," she says. "Did you go there to fight them?"

>_

[Serela]

>"My mistress Remilia wished to invade the moon, but it may be more accurate to say it was just a fun way to pass the time." Wink. "Regardless, there was a different plot going on about the rocket at the same time, so we all got to enjoy a rare lunarian sake afterwards. I'd say the mission was a great success."

>"Ooo," says Mitsu, eyebrows raising.
>"Wouldn't mind having some of that," Nue says with a chuckle.

>_

[Monarda]

>"Well, you could also build one and try again."
>Turn back to Mitsu.
>"You said your attempt wasn't really successful, what went wrong ?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"Well, you could also build one and try again."
>Turn back to Mitsu.
>"You said your attempt wasn't really successful, what went wrong ?"

>"Heh, if I could do that kind of thing, I'd be selling trips," says Nue.
>"Well, from what I understand, they got close, then got turned away," says Mitsu.

>_

[Monarda]

>"So the lunarians made them turn back ? What happened to them anyways ? I heard that Eientei is no more, was there an incident ?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"So the lunarians made them turn back ? What happened to them anyways ? I heard that Eientei is no more, was there an incident ?"

>"What's Eientei?" says Mitsu.
>"You know, I haven't heard that name in a long, long time," says Nue.

[Monarda]

>"It was a mansion located in the bamboo forest where rabbit youkai and lunarians lived, i have now heard it is abandoned and salvaged of any values, which is a pity since i need an antique object from my time period to go back."

[Hello Purvis]

>"It was a mansion located in the bamboo forest where rabbit youkai and lunarians lived, i have now heard it is abandoned and salvaged of any values, which is a pity since i need an antique object from my time period to go back."

>"It used to be kind of a big deal," says Nue.
>"Huh," says Mitsu. "All I know about the forest that it's full of rabbits and pandas."

>_

[Serela]

>Did there used to be pandas in the bamboo forest?
>Chuckle. "I suppose that was quite a long time ago. It's been almost a thousand years, after all. Nothing is quite like it used to be... except the Netherworld, perhaps."

Oops, I think pandas might have gone extinct in the outside world in the last millenia, forgotten and passed into Gensokyo. XD Whilst not surprising in the least, that's a neat touch if so.

>Chuckle. "I suppose that was quite a long time ago. It's been almost a thousand years, after all. Nothing is quite like it used to be... except the Netherworld, perhaps."

>Oh yes. They used to have a problem of them getting on the roofs at Eientei.
>"I'll take your word on that," says Nue.

[Kilgamayan]

> "Oh! And speaking of things not being quite like they used to be, I have something that may interest you."
> Pull out the Sworn Statement and hand it to Nue.

[Hello Purvis]

> Pull out the Sworn Statement and hand it to Nue.

>Nue takes the paper and looks it over. "Huh," she says, "What're you planning to do with this?"
