>"Heads up Reimu, Incoming black-white. Also, this little guy got even more information for us to piece the mystery together. The reason why your shrine's god, Hina, and the Aki sisters are connected, is because they're gods. Titania was also a god."

> "Well of course they're all gods."

> Marisa lands, moving at a fast pace.

> "Oi Raymoo! I was at the Myouren Temple, totally not stealing scrolls from Hijiri, and Shou started acting up, and speaking in some strange tone, telling the Myouren Temple to 'prepare for the struggles ahead'. Byakuren said it was Bishamoten speaking through her avatar." Marisa says.

> She then notices Reimu is still crying.

> "R-Reimu? What's wrong?"

>"...Genji finally ran out of time. But it looks like we've gotten even more info on this weird mystery. First a Divine Messenger shows up at the Ruined Shrine looking for Hina, then when I talked to the Aki Sisters, Shizuha started talking about a low amount of faith, so I advised her against pulling a Titania. Then she was about to say something about that before Minoriko made her put a lid on it."
>Indicate the little butterfly we have. "And this little guy said that Hina was down near the Higan talking with some other curse goddesses. They were using some sort of foreign language though."
>Sigh. "Going on all this, and what you just said, it looks like there's trouble in the worlds of the divine. And five'll get you twenty that Rumia and Shinki will end up getting involved in this mess."

> "Genji? Ain't that that old turtle? What's the big deal about him?" Marisa says, clueless.

> Reimu shoots Marisa a death glare, and Marisa then says, "Obviously I don't understand, da ze~. Obviously he was very important." She actually sounds something you've never heard Marisa... scared.

> "If there's a mess, it's my job to et involved in it ~ze!" she declares.

>"Yeah, and I can't let Rumia handle everything herself. You know I'll do what I can to help too. I'm seriously thinking that this all stems back to the Titania Incident. The gods must've...Well, gotten spooked big time I guess. Then again, if I were one of them, I probably would too if I'd found that a former friend of mine had become a completely different person since the last time I saw them."
>Sigh again. "Nice job breaking it Nue."

> "I'm sure there's dumb gods too ~ze. If there's a smart fairy there's gotta be a dumb god."

>"That works too. As long as it's a god or goddess, it should work." Suwako always seemed to be the more amicable of the two didn't she?

> Kanako is an imposing, cunning, plotting god, who is self-important and has a large ego.

> Suwako is a cheerful, relaxed, friendly god, who fixes the land when a fight ruined it.

> Suwako is FAR easier to deal with.
