>You know what, let's not attract any undue attention from this woman...
>Try to fly away from the garden, or at least away from the laser lady.
>This is a dream anyways, right? We can't impact anything. Besides maybe take her attention away, but she probably isn't one of the youkai that can notice us anyways. Let's skedaddle.
>Just in case this is one of those youkai, you begin to fly away.
>Like on the mountain, your flight speed is rather slow.

>Is our flight faster than running? Is it tiring more than that? Regardless, keep flying. It's likely good practice.

>You move towards the structures in the distance. It's going to take quite a while to reach them at your current pace.

>You can run much faster than you can fly, but running will tire you out quicker.

>How stealthy is our flying?
>One the one hand if we move really slowly, it'll be less likely to attract the eyes, but it could also give an observer a greater opportunity to examine us.
>How much noise are we making, if any?
>What's the laser lady doing now?

>Try to speed up our flight, but fly low, in case we fall.
>You will yourself to go faster, you seem to speed up slightly, but you're beginning to wobble. You will likely fall soon if you keep this up.

>Can we focus our energy behind us ? If so do it.
>Is it increasing our speed ? Even if slightly ?
>You attempt to focus energy behind you.
>It doesn't seem to be doing anything...

>How stealthy is our flying?
>How much noise are we making, if any?
>Not very stealthy. You're fully visible. However, the flight doesn't seem to be making any noise.

>One the one hand if we move really slowly, it'll be less likely to attract the eyes, but it could also give an observer a greater opportunity to examine us.
>While in reality that would be true, you are currently in dream state. Nobody can see nor hear you, so how stealthy you are is irrelevant. However, some youkai may be able to sense your presence, and you don't think any amount of stealth will prevent notice from those youkai, should you encounter any.

>What's the laser lady doing now?
>The lady has put down her parasol and is now holding the injured fairy in the air by the scruff of her neck.

>Uuhh... that poor fairy... ... maybe we could help. If she can sense our presence, but we go away before she can do anything, maybe the fairy can escape. And the next time we go into a dream, we could look for Renko again.

>You abort the dream and find yourself beside the barrier once more.

>Look around when we're back.
>The shimmering barrier takes up a large portion of your view. The cracks that formed when Reimu was shot have faded and shrunk considerably, but are still present. The Outside's version of the Hakurei Shrine is nearby, looking abandoned and decrepit, as usual. Opposite of it is an old road that, if followed, will eventually take you back to the more populated areas of Japan.

>You realize that dreaming seems to be an ineffective method to find Renko. You could always physically enter Gensokyo by tearing the barrier again, but you have no idea where to start looking.
>However, it could be possible that she's still at Eientei, provided Sumireko hasn't woken up yet...

> Approach the cat a bit and examine it.
>You walk up to the cat.
