>"Your sister was only temporarily blinded. She's lucky to have recovered without any adverse effects. You on the other hand, are asking me to permanently blind or remove your eye... And it could have an unknown number of effects on you..."

>"Hmm? What is it?" Eirin turns to face your group as well, her gaze meeting yours, "When did you get in here?"

>"I want to shut off my third eye again... Permanently... Or maybe I should just have it surgically removed..." Koishi frowns, "But either way, Eirin doesn't want to do it."
>"It's too dangerous. If I were to perform that procedure, she'd need to have her sister sign a release form in case there are... complications..." says Eirin, "Anyway, I see that the patient that escaped earlier has been recovered. Though I don't recall ever seeing wings in the initial examination..."

So next would be...

Either going to the underground with Koishi or asking Patchouli about Sumireko's condition? Or Regenteki stuff, I sorta skipped out on that part after awhile so I don't know exactly what's going on there.

the old guy · « **Reply #957 on:** August 08, 2016, 11:40:12 PM »

asking Patchouli about Sumireko's condition should be next, its important to the safety of gensokyo.

Serela · « **Reply #958 on:** August 08, 2016, 11:51:46 PM »

It's important, but I don't really see how Gensokyo is in danger either way.
