>"Okay, now we just need to wait."
>Step outside and have a look at the underwater village.

>You make your way outside, holding the now-haunted potted plant.
>The village is...mostly intact. Some parts of a roof here or there has given way. A few smaller buildings are gone entirely. Gone too are all the carts and barrels and small debris that were along the road. It is completely empty now, with only some seaweed poking out here and there, and some odd anemones to cover its barrenness. Schools of fish swim idly between the buildings, barnacles are starting to encrust some of the wood. The sense of being passively watched has not changed.

>You swim upwards some yards, and look down upon the village. The streets are devoid of people, and manmade debris in general. Seaweed chokes many of the roads, while thick carpets anemones can be seen here and there. The trees are still in place, at a glance you don't notice any are particularly missing.

>You meander into the alley and wait, near an oak tree. You look at it for a little while, and find it is a little odd there's still trees here, but no grass.
>Moments later, the water is gone, the pressure normalizes to what it should be above ground, and the sounds of life and the sunlight return.

// Is that so in the - beginning - :D, :blush: a Wall of Text :wikipedia: !//

// Dry Cacti-like Plant  was mentioned to need shade&breeze&warm weather and there ar lrmentions&hints  "  A-Z Adventures - Murasa' Quest "is set in mid-spring , after the HSiFS &Aftermaths are resolved - Yukari recommended in her own wordings the little fellow is to house an haunting - so it comes to reason

> " It is also mentioned(early first half of this 2nd thread ) as:
 "...Unusually Hardy..." AND Prepped by Yukari to be "Hardy in order to be Haunted" this requiring just the bare care ; of course unless in some eventuality of something off with it //.

// As for a few(4) Important future events :  "Okina's Plan "
 ;  coming back invited,as compensation , to "Okina's Gensokyo Dimensional Doors Space " and asking a wrongly-kidnapped&knocked out(a necesssary invitation for Okina's Plan mistaken by Mai&Satono) Doremy Sweet(needed for Okina's  Plan) for a double help about cooperation trouble-counseling ; Eventually Visiting Keine  ( ref. to "Stargazer" - "Utshuo's Quest " ) ; Eventually isiting the (Name?)" Reformed Shadow-Poltergeist Girl now an Apprentice Jeweler in Human Village ( the Jeweler and partly-carer is a forme  expert thief ) " (ref. to "Iku Quest " - 2nd Half )//


>Nod and sip that Warm Tea ,then Spoonfuls of Food but then pause, delay Heartily Digging in AFTER trying answering  Tojiko's 'Curiosities"mamma and this'd AFTER waiting another bit for Tojiko's main order ; purely another little token of gratitude&cooperation for her support so far and present treat ...

> Nodding,pursuing lips digging in,purse lips,say in low-key  " Mhmh , Quite Worrying Curiosities and Wonderings ahead,even byt Gensokyo&Related Standard Close at least so far .

>Stargazer is now i a Strenghted Spiky Plant prepped to be Haunted,  still acclimating and quite difficult to communicate to,although more aware and easier-to sense than when we were trying that spectral hosting inside me to get the very same away from That Space ... "

 > ..." Rarther, in "Ocean-Floor Deserted sorta-Gensokyo ",  Stargazer was more acclimated as...a  Giant Ghost-Like Man o' War or Big Ocean-Farer Jelly-Fish...."
 
> "...And In truth the "talkings"are done between us by   relaying about  "  descriptive sensations,impressions and considerations similar,but not quite, to thoughts &feelings" ".



> ...Well Stargazer is "Less of a Forced-Drifter" than me but still one and so far is  :   Innocent& Inexperienced but willing,if supported&allowed ,to Acquaint& Re-Acquaint with " Gensokyo " that seem somehow familiar and remembered ; though it does seem one with differences from the Actual One  by things like Stargazer being surprised by my ghostly nature  that Unsettled Spirits are able and need  Special Objects as Focus."

> " Be as it may, it is best  not to be mistaken as , "An Unidentified Haunting Presence ",or worse as one that is related to this Incident-Unrest-in-the-making //

> "... Yet there is also those"points-of-interest-investigation"  to work off such as this Very Concealed Culprit acting INSIDE the Great Barrier -affecting especially me and partly Stargazer, but that could not be it- and they could be the strongly related to THAT Presence which is casually taking notice ,casually yes but progressively more active in doing so ,since   my entrance in that "Ocean-Bottomed Alternate Gensokyo ".


// Okina's Unknown Plan (involving Doremy Sweet which is unclear if willing ti  collaborate) eventual side-effects and a taking advantage off
it ?? //

// Remember that after Patchouli&Koakuma&SDM Transit we kind-of-need to Transit-Back for trading materials,funds from Byakuren most likely, and more occasionally Shou&Rinnosuke("Shou's Tiger Store" BUT TRADING ONLY INDIRECTLY,OR RESORTING TO NORMAL BUY&SELLwith the last one) or the "Myouren Temple's Underground Medical,mostly first-aid, Clinic " Or Nue's(Check Name)" Rose Bar "//

// (This and before are of course beyond short-term) In general It would be good  checking up Kourindou ( Temp "Nazrindou" ), its Crossways in the Forest of Magic&Ssorrounding but also " Hotspots "in the same Forest&Sorrounding //

// There is also the trading back Murasa's pristine Spell-Card (Actual Full Murasa's Deck and,if it  does not turn side-track or in hamper,  some  powering-up of it and especially more use&practice of "fair-game/-mostly-fair ghostliness" also for those " Emergencies Fights,etc."),the looking for new/&usefull items and the asking for suspicious/weird purveyors //

//(cfr."Touhou Double Spoiler" ,"Touhou Impossible Spell-Card" but also in-between,after and also hinted in after-unsealing in the same Underground,"Ancient Gensokyo (Myourenji))...

// Is that so - ending - :D, :blush: a Wall of Text :wikipedia: !//

Wow

I'm sorry, that's just too much drinking from a fire hose for me. Please break things down a bit more in the future.
