>Give her a description of Rika then.
>"Okay? Now, this should be fun."

> You describe Rika as a somewhat short crazy redhead that's neither human, youkai or fairy.

> The fairy flies off.

> "Maybe." Shinki says.

> "Long time no see, I heard you'd come back to Gensokyo, but you never popped into the village like you used to. I wonder if you heard the policy changes." a voice says. The voice that you link with headbutting.

>"Eh? Policy changes? I wonder if that's something edible."
>Turn to face the voice.

>Grin. "Y'mean like how I don't need the seal anymore?"

> "I mean how the humans do not shut themselves off from youkai anymore, they voted for change. I am the leader of the humans now, and slowly, the village is opening up to youkai, becoming less sheltered. Youkai do not eat humans anymore, humans too, are adapting to not fear and isolate them as much anymore." Keine says.

> "Oh, no, they're still wary, but they're opening slowly. For example, Rinnosuke, a half youkai, can now trade in the village. They stand for Mystcia's lamprey stand, and visit it, despite a youkai running it. The kids play with Kogasa. Fairies are also popular with the children." Keine says. "I don't have to headbutt everyone away anymore, only people being a pain."

>Grin. "Well, the idea's still out there when they want it. Come summer they'll want to not worry about the heat of the sun. After all, back when I was sealed, I never had to worry about the heat of summer, because I was always in the shade wherever I went."

>Demonstrate by lowering the light levels of the immediate area a few notches to a pleasant shade.

> "So I can pick Sunny, Star or Luna? They're annoying, but I think they're smart enough to not fall for it, Lilly too." Keine says.

> Keine chuckles, before calling over a small fairy, and whispering to it.

> "I get to see something cool if I follow the fire-lady in the bamboo forest on the full moon?" the fairy says excitedly.

> "Are you, how old are ya?" the fairy says.

> You're not too sure. Time flows differently in different dimensions, Gensokyo was not the first place you went after Shinki sent you from Makai. You guess you are at least 150, as it was about 100 years since you entered Gensokyo.

>Grin. "Have you ever been somewhere where time's all wonky? I don't think so."
