Yukari Quest VII - A Z-Machine Adventure

[Hello Purvis]

> We felt the netherworld's presence and/or influence when we sensed the entity, didn't we? Now that we've had time to calm down and rest a bit, does that mean anything to us?

>You definitely felt it touching upon the edge of the Netherworld, which is a curious, formless and spaceless kind of place where the universe more or less comes to a stop.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Would Yuyuko have noticed this? Or is she not that level of in-touch with this place?

[Hello Purvis]

> Would Yuyuko have noticed this? Or is she not that level of in-touch with this place?

>You don't think she would have noticed. The edge of the netherworld really isn't within anyone's purview.

[Suwako Moriya]

> "Mmm..."
> Tap our chin thoughtfully.
> "You haven't felt anything strange within the past day or two, have you? Either with you, or with the Netherworld itself."

[Hello Purvis]

> "Mmm..."
> Tap our chin thoughtfully.
> "You haven't felt anything strange within the past day or two, have you? Either with you, or with the Netherworld itself."

>"Nothing at all," says Yuyuko. "I didn't think there was anything awry until Ran visited us yesterday."

>_

[Suwako Moriya]

> Nod.
> "Probably for the best, then. Not to frighten you or anything, but this entity had started finding its way to the edge of the Netherworld. Since it has been dispatched so quickly, I imagine no meaningful damage has been done, but it is nice to hear supporting statements from you."

[Hello Purvis]

> "Probably for the best, then. Not to frighten you or anything, but this entity had started finding its way to the edge of the Netherworld. Since it has been dispatched so quickly, I imagine no meaningful damage has been done, but it is nice to hear supporting statements from you."

>"Oh dear, I shall have to investigate," says Yuyuko, frowning. "Would you happen to be able to tell me where to look?"

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "All I could tell was that it reached the edges. Which could be any number of places."

[Hello Purvis]

> "All I could tell was that it reached the edges. Which could be any number of places."

>"As much as things like 'places' matter there," says Yuyuko. "Mmm, that is interesting, isn't it? I wonder if it's leaking? Can it leak? Mmm, no, probably not."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "It was definitely actively searching. Not for any one thing in particular, mind you, just anything it could destroy."

[Hello Purvis]

> "It was definitely actively searching. Not for any one thing in particular, mind you, just anything it could destroy."

>"I suppose that must have been one of the first places it found, then," says Yuyuko. "Or the last?"

>_

[Yaersulf]

>"In all likelihood, both."

[Hello Purvis]

>"In all likelihood, both."

>"Ah," says Yuyuko, as she takes a couple candies. "Either way, there's not much for it to destroy there. And I trust you've sorted it out."

>_

[Yaersulf]

>"I did what any responsible person would do when confronted with an eldritch abomination from outside the universe that desires the destruction of everything."

[Hello Purvis]

>"I did what any responsible person would do when confronted with an eldritch abomination from outside the universe that desires the destruction of everything."

>"Oh, where did you put it?" says Yuyuko, as she finishes off a candy, "What're you going to name it?"

>_

[Yaersulf]

>"I doubt you'd think of that as a possibility if you'd encountered it for yourself, I destroyed it as utterly as I could."
>"Regardless, I think Ran is a good enough pet for me."

[Hello Purvis]

>"I doubt you'd think of that as a possibility if you'd encountered it for yourself, I destroyed it as utterly as I could."
>"Regardless, I think Ran is a good enough pet for me."

>"As long as she doesn't hear it," Yuyuko says. "It sounds quite like you have things wrapped up. But I would definitely go have a talk with whomever wrapped up that disappearing incident."

>_

[Mr. Sacchi]

> Roughly what time is it? Can we even tell in the Netherworld?

I think we'd better go speak to Keine before wrapping the quest up.

[Hello Purvis]

> Roughly what time is it? Can we even tell in the Netherworld?

>It's getting close to midnight, maybe a little past it?

>_

[Mr. Sacchi]

> Do we have any idea of Keine's sleeping habits?
> Is it a full moon tonight?

[Hello Purvis]

> Do we have any idea of Keine's sleeping habits?
> Is it a full moon tonight?

>She is asleep right now; unless she woke up for some reason since you last checked.
>It is not.

>_

[Mr. Sacchi]

Oh, right, derp. She's already asleep.

Anybody else you all want to talk to Yuyuko in specific?

> ...only say the following if by "disappearing incident" she seems to mean the Gensokyo Isle.
> "I already have plans to, though it appears it is already quite late so that will have to wait until tomorrow."

I'm having a brainfart today, so maybe I'm not the best person to take control of the quest right now :derp:

[Hello Purvis]

> "I already have plans to, though it appears it is already quite late so that will have to wait until tomorrow."

>"I'm surprised to hear you're willing to wait, after all that," says Yuyuko.

>_

[Yaersulf]

>"The matter is no longer urgent, and I haven't had a good rest since this all began. I'd like to think I deserve a bit of a break."

[Hello Purvis]

>"The matter is no longer urgent, and I haven't had a good rest since this all began. I'd like to think I deserve a bit of a break."

>"Who am I to argue?" says Yuyuko, as she finishes off her candies.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Smile.
> "The only person to whom I'd listen, I imagine. But I really do need this."

[Hello Purvis]

> Smile.
> "The only person to whom I'd listen, I imagine. But I really do need this."

>"Well, don't let me keep you then," says Yuyuko. "I would offer you a room, but I imagine it's all the same to you."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Hold our arms out for a hug.
> "Can you offer me one of these, at least?"

[Hello Purvis]

> Hold our arms out for a hug.
> "Can you offer me one of these, at least?"

>"I suppose I can't refuse that much," says Yuyuko as she floats from her seat, approaches, and hugs you tightly.

[Kilgamayan]

> "Thank you so much, dear. You've no idea what a sense of relieving normality you have brought me."
