>Nod.
>"Let us say I were to visit, what should I keep in mind?"


>You nod, and ask for specific directions.
>"Well, if you're able to find my friend Louise, who lives in a house at the other side of the portal. If you tell her I sent you, she'll probably help you get to Pandemonium"

>"Not really, the beds here are really comfy sooo~"
>Sara yawns, and drops herself onto one of the beds standing in the room.
>"Have fun in Makai!" she murmurs.

>Go to the kitchen, and see if we can find out why she's getting poisoned tea.

>..she wouldn't do any harm, right?
>You head downstairs to the main kitchen. Fairiy maids are fluttering around everywhere, clumsily cooking.
>One of them flies up to you: "Ah! Sakuya-sama! We're delighted to have you visiting! How may we help you?"

>"Our guest, Sara. What tea has she been given since she started staying here?"


>"Uh-oh!" the fairy says, and suddenly, the fairies start flying around as flies, yelling at eachother.
>You hear all sorts of whispers, such as: "We should've never let her work here!" and "Where did she go? Where is she? Find her before lady Sakuya discovers what happened!" From all sides, behind and in front, fairies start swarming, and it's not just the fairy cooks, but also the maids. You also notice a small girl hiding in a corner, wearing a red ribbon.

>Gesture toward the Red Ribbon'd faerie.
>Come here."


>The fairies suddenly freeze, and form a barrier between you and Red Ribbon. Some of them start yelling: "Oh no! She found her!" and "Nooo! Medi-chan!" You notice she looks different for a fairy. She has weird gothic-esque black and red clothes. It would be nice for an outfit for the Scarlet Devil Mansion, but you didn't actually tell them any of that... Other than that, there's a miniature version of her flying around her! You think you've seen her before...
>You gesture towards Red Ribbon, and ask her to come to you.
>She responds in a really childish voice:"The maid? Is this your house? Oh no, I think I got into trouble again..."

>The little girl sighs, and says:"I just to live there, but the ghosts were just too noisy out there! So I started wandering around, when I got to the gate of this huge mansion. One of the maids saw me flying around and she let me in, but then she tricked me into being mischievous by poisoning the tea... I'm so sorry, miss maid-san!"
>From the audience of fairies, you hear a lot of  "oooh!"'s and "aaah!"'s

>Medicine and her little doll look around the kitchen, but they don't seem to find anything.
>"Wha? Where'd she go? She was a pretty weird fairy, with those huge ears and no wings..." Medicine says.
>The little doll comes closer to Medicine, and seems to say something, but you can't make out any words.
>"What? That's a rabbit? She tricked me again!?" Medicine yells.
>The fairy crowd goes wild! They sure enjoy drama!

>A choir of fairies yell 'What is it, Sakuya-san?" in all sorts of pitched voices. They actually sound really good together! Who knew fairies could sing so well?
>None of the fairies raise their hands at first, backing away slowly untill you notice Tewi trying and failing to hide under her hands. She notices the fairies have left her and makes a beeline for the nearest door, yelling "Kyaaa!"


Parser's note: Even though I haven't been adding Quests to this RPG, I think it would be a good idea to do so. The things left to do are getting a bit cluttered. I'd like your (Oh, I mean Purv's) opinion on this, too.

>Timestop, and then move right in front of her.
>If this works out right, she'll have no way to go but forward, and right into us, wherein we'll snag us that there rabbit.


As for quests, that would generally be a good idea, most Text Adventures have them, even mine.
And the Z-Machine series is the benchmark that all Text Adventures here try to measure up to.

>You freeze time to stop her from reaching the door before you do, and resume time afterwards. She slams into you, but you remain steady and grab her by her rabbit ears. She struggles wildly, but you are a lot stronger.


>Quests:

>Gate to the Demon World:
-Remilia has disappeared, and left a note saying 'fate is out of whack'
-You've inquired with Patchouli and Koakuma, and she seems to have left for Makai.
-You've met with Yukari Yakumo at Hakurei Shrine, and she seems to know something about it. She also has the power to conjure a portal to Makai.
-You've visited Yuyuko in Hakugyokurou, and she told you Remilia visited lately, to lend a bottle of wine as a gift for the Goddess of Makai, Shinki. She also told you Alice Margatroid is her daughter
-You've visited Alice, and made a deal with her. The poor girl left Makai years ago, stealing her Mother's Grimoire and leaving accidentily. You promised to defend Alice's case, and Alice will lead you to Makai. She asked you to meet at Mayohiga, the apparitional village.

>Not ghosts, divine spirits!
-You have visited the Human Village, only to find it under attack by ghosts, but they seemed a little different. You agreed with Fujiwara no Mokou to head over to Hakugyokurou and visit Yuyuko
-You weren't able to take Mokou into Hakugyokurou, but you have gained information about the ghosts from Yuyuko. She is not responsible for this accident; these are actually divine spirits, beings born from desire. Things got pretty bad there, though; even the Yama herself came to reprimand the Ghostly Lady. Some of them seem more helpful than hurtful, though they're still mischievous. One has become your personal stalker
-You still need to ask Patchouli about them.

>Oh my gourd!
-When you arrived at Hakurei Shrine, Suika told you her magic gourd has disappeared!

>Poisonous tricks?
-A guest at the SDM was served poisonous tea! Luckily, she was a youkai, but this is still not a trifle!
-Medicine Melancholy, the poisonous doll tsukumogami, was tricked by someone to poison the SDM's tea.
-That someone turned out to be no other than Tewi Inaba, the trickster rabbit. You've managed to catch her before she got away.

>You speak to her, but she only answers by murmuring angrily.
>She tries to slam you with her tail, but you pull her away before it hits you.
>Medicine walks towards you and asks: "You're not going to hurt me, right? I was tricked into poisoning the tea by that no-good rabbit!"

>"Th-thank you! I'm going to play some more with the fairies now! So sorry for bothering you, Sakuya-san!" Medicine says, and floats through the door leading to the main hall.
>You glare at the trickster rabbit, and she gulps.
>"I just said I had a perfectly reasonable explanation for the going ons here. As all the fairies here know, Medicine-chan is the one truly responsible for this. I was just wandering around here, when she asked me to help set up a prank. She didn't actually tell me she was going to use me as a scapegoat" Tewi says, speaking eloquently, but with gritted teeth.
>The fairy crowd suddenly goes silent.

>You glance at Tewi again, and she stutters:"N-no, you've got it all wrong! It was all Miss Eirin?s plan. She needed the Mansion?s inhabitants out of the way so they could, ehmm, ehm.. No wait, that wasn?t it.. Oh no!"
>She starts stressing, hitting herself on the head with her tail.

>She is a youkai rabbit, of course. They have very long tails. It is a symbol of their worth to youkai rabbit society.
>"Little Mistress? That sounds fun! Where is she?" Tewi answers, oddly excited.
