Sword Quest XII - A Z-Machine Adventure

> Miko: "It seems so, unless anyone wishes to take the metal disc as a souvenir of sorts."

We're not actually done with anyone yet, there's still stuff I want to say with both characters.

>"If you guys are willing to carry the dumb thing," says Reimu. "Which I'll say is a real bad idea right now."

> Youmu: "Is it a good idea to leave it unattended, though?"

>"It's just an empty seal now, now," says Reimu. "I don't even think it can be reset anymore."

[Kilgamayan]

> Youmu: "All right. You know more about this than me, so I'll take your word for it. Since this seems under control, Kotohime and I are going to head to Eientei."
> Youmu: Look over the Taoists and frown a bit.
> Youmu: "...You all might want to pay them a visit yourself, come to think of it. They could probably patch you up."

[Hello Purvis]

> Miko: We never worked out lodging plans for this evening, did we?

>You had not. Originally, you were planning to return home.

> Miko: "Before you do, there is one last thing I wish to tell you this evening."
> Miko: Take a calming breath.
> Miko: "Despite...appearances to the contrary in our short time here, we do wish to largely leave this land and its inhabitants be, and be treated similarly in return. We have our own businesses to attend to that require much time, focus, and dedication. But, in the odd instance where we have the time to spare, and are present in this land, please do not be afraid to ask our assistance with any incidents or other threatening issues."

>Reimu gives you a look, but you think it is less annoyed and more having to take a moment to decode what you're saying. "We'll see," she says. "You did alright today."

Youmu:
>"So Miko, will you come along ? Or do you have other plans ? After all, Eientei is just one of the places you can get treatment, although it is the preferred one."
>Do the Taoists wounds look threatening or are they manageable ?
>Would healing items such as Ointments, Healing Salves and bandages be enough for their wounds ?

I think Kilgamayan suggested before that Miko/Youmu interactions would be better with 2 or more people, i'm not too in deep with Youmu's character exactly, since i only found a Copy of PCB about 5-6 days ago, but i think i can go with her better than with Miko as i haven't played TD and don't have any good knowledge from any game after IN. So maybe we can split roles with me doing work with Youmu and Kilga working out Miko. Or is that a bad idea ? Please reply and sorry for being such a  :wikipedia:.

[Hello Purvis]

> Miko: Do we have healing salves of other burn treatments at home?
> Miko: How long would it take these burns to heal naturally?

>You do have some medical things at home.
>That's an interesting question, you most certainly recover faster than a normal human, as Futo did earlier today, but you've not tested it for burns. You believe it should recover reasonably soon.

>Do the Taoists wounds look threatening or are they manageable ?
>Would healing items such as Ointments, Healing Salves and bandages be enough for their wounds ?

>Miko looks pretty badly beat up, but you understand that hermits such as them ought to recover more quickly?
>You can't imagine that they would not help.

[Kilgamayan]

I've found it easier to control both at once since it makes it more likely to accomplish what I want to accomplish (I always have unspoken plans for whatever character I control in any given game), so it's hard for me to really answer that question because it hasn't been my mindset for a long time. There's also a degree of considering hour selfish any given answer is.

>"It might not hurt," says Tojiko. "I mean, you did take a lot more of a beating than we have."
>"I daresay the doctor would help out," Seiga says. "One does prefer to have you in better condition for future business."

[Monarda]

Youmu:
>"I see... do you also agree with them ?"

[Kilgamayan]

> Miko: "Very well, I suppose I could do with a proper medical examination."

[Monarda]

Youmu:
>"Then it's decided, i'll go get Kotohime, she must still be at the behemoth's remains."
>Go find Kotohime, and take a look at what time it must be by using the sky as reference.
>Consider asking Miko later about showing her swordswomanship, maybe we can give her some tips and maybe even learn a bit too.

>As you decide this, Reimu bows and says, "Good luck, then." She then takes to the air and departs.
>Youmu: Looking toward the sky, you can tell it's dark out. Otherwise, you assume it's getting into mid evening?
>Miko: As Youmu departs, Seiga sidles up to your side. "Surely we aren't actually letting that charlatan actually accompany us, are we?"

[Kilgamayan]

So much for still having stuff to say with Youmu.

> Miko: "She did mention that she was traveling there herself already."

[Hello Purvis]

> Miko: "She did mention that she was traveling there herself already."

>Miko: "Is a noble expected to keep company with an extortionist because they take the same road?" says Seiga.
>Youmu: You find Kotohime about where you left her. She seems to be placing some of the ashen remains into a small bad. You are also certain that the whole pile seems to be a bit smaller than it was before.

[Monarda]

Youmu:
>Have a feeling someone is insulting you somewhere, then disregard that.
>"There you are, why are you taking it's ashes ? I'm pretty sure you shouldn't mess with that stuff. We're going to Eientei, you're coming right ?"
>After reuniting with Kotohime, go back to the Taoist group and prepare to head towards Eientei.

[Kilgamayan]

> Miko: Sigh. "It would be rather obvious what we are doing if we send her off on her own, or if we depart before she returns. I would rather not cultivate further ill will if possible."

>"It's fine," she says, before you say the last thing. Then she doesn't reply.

> Miko: Sigh. "It would be rather obvious what we are doing if we send her off on her own, or if we depart before she returns. I would rather not cultivate further ill will if possible."

>"I cannot care for the ill will of such scum," says Seiga.
>"Let us consider it oil for the machinery of negotiations?" says Futo.
>Seiga makes a face. "Hmph. If we must."

[Kilgamayan]

> Miko: "Perhaps we can attempt to renegotiate that agreement?"

[Monarda]

Youmu:
>Is she done collecting the ashes ?
>"So, are we going then ? Have you finished your stuff ?"

[Hello Purvis]

> Miko: "Perhaps we can attempt to renegotiate that agreement?"

>Seiga sighs. "As you say, Crown Prince..."

Youmu:
>Is she done collecting the ashes ?
>"So, are we going then ? Have you finished your stuff ?"

>Who can tell?
>"Ah, very well," says Kotohime, as she stands up, puts the pouch away, and tries to dust off her stained hands.

> Miko: Soften our look and tone a little bit. "I know she bothers you. Please believe me when I say I have taken that into consideration."

>"That may be so, but it is little consolation, you understand?" says Seiga.

[Monarda]

Youmu:
>Get to the Taoists and pesky Taoist with Kotohime.
>"We're here ! So shall we get going ?"
