Maribel Hearn Quest: ACT II - Part 2

[Monarda]

>"Have you ever tried in order to say that kind of thing ?"

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Have you ever tried in order to say that kind of thing ?"

>"Well... No... But I know some people who have."
>_

[Monarda]

>"Namely...... ?"
>Look at her with a face of doubt.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Namely...... ?"
>Look at her with a face of doubt.

>"Well, my old mentor, Mima, tried to raise an army of them once, that result was the most disorganized thing you'd ever seen. It was a disaster... And Keine, the village schoolteacher, tried to educate a few of them once ~ze... And then there's Sanae, the Moriya Shrine's shrine maiden. Who was partially responsible for the birth of the fairy village..."
>_

[Monarda]

>"Hmm, feels nice to know that the teacher tried, still, maybe they just didn`t use the right method or put enough time to it, as you said it yourself, Miss Reimu took years to perfect her flight as best as she could."

>"Hmm, feels nice to know that the teacher tried, still, maybe they just didn`t use the right method or put enough time to it, as you said it yourself, Miss Reimu took years to perfect her flight as best as she could."

>"Oh, don't get me wrong, she put a lot of time into it. All I know is that it ended up failing eventually."

>You are almost at the mansion.
>_

[Monarda]

>"Well i`d love to meet her and talk with her sometime, my time on the village was cut short after that incident."

[Neovereign]

>"I remember there being one fairy, Star, I think, who left from her group when there was trouble. It doesn't sound like a good thing to do, but that meant she knew something bad would happen right? That's pretty good?"

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Well i`d love to meet her and talk with her sometime, my time on the village was cut short after that incident."

>"Well, you can usually find her in or around the school during the day, so you should go there if you ever plan on meeting her ~ze."

>"I remember there being one fairy, Star, I think, who left from her group when there was trouble. It doesn't sound like a good thing to do, but that meant she knew something bad would happen right? That's pretty good?"

>"Oh, Star Sapphire? Yeah, she's one of the smarter fairies that are out there... It's still not much, really. Anyway, we're here."

>You arrive at the mansion's door, and land in front of it.
>You think you can hear whimpering from around a nearby corner.
>_

[Monarda]

>"Huh ? Do you two hear that ?"
>Investigate !

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Huh ? Do you two hear that ?"
>Investigate !

>"I do." Marisa nods.
>"I hear it as well." says YuugenMagan.

>You move around the corner to see the same fairy that was hit by the laser in your dream. A significant chunk of her right wings are missing, as well as most of her right leg. She does not appear to be bleeding, but she looks like she's in a lot of pain. Bruises can be seen around her neck, and her hands seem to be tied together behind her back.

>"Oh, it's just a fairy..." YuugenMagan comments as she follows you, "Just put it out of its misery and it'll be fine..."
>"Should one of you do it, or shall I?" Marisa asks.
>_

[Monarda]

>"You two ! Fairy or not she`s suffering !"
>Approach the fairy.
>"You picked up some flowers for the field didn`t you dear ?"

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"You two ! Fairy or not she`s suffering !"

>"And yet, by not killing her, you are prolonging it..." YuugenMagan's eyes take on an unamused expression.

>Approach the fairy.
>"You picked up some flowers for the field didn`t you dear ?"

>"Mhm..." The fairy whimpers, "I-I s-saw a pretty one...."
>_

[Monarda]

>"You shouldn`t pick the flowers up dear, even if they are pretty, if you do, they will die, and the youkai here will be upset like she was before."
>Pat her head gently.
>"Next time don`t do this okay ? For me please ?"
>Turn around.
>"I think you can do it now, if she will come back healed..."

[Neovereign]

>Realize we're telling someone to kill someone else, right in front of said victim's face.
>Ponder at least getting out of sight/sound first...

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"You shouldn`t pick the flowers up dear, even if they are pretty, if you do, they will die, and the youkai here will be upset like she was before."

>"B-But it's a sign of s-strongness..."

>Pat her head gently.

>She flinches as your hand approaches, but stops tensing up as you pat her head.

>"Next time don`t do this okay ? For me please ?"

>"B-But what about the s-strongness?"

>Turn around.
>"I think you can do it now, if she will come back healed..."

>Realize we're telling someone to kill someone else, right in front of said victim's face.
>Ponder at least getting out of sight/sound first...

>You are about to give Marisa and YuugenMagan the go-ahead, but stop when you realize it you're doing it right in front of the fairy.
>You wonder if you should get out of sight and earshot first...
>_

[Monarda]

>"But you don`t want the flower to suffer right ? You wouldn`t like if someone woke you up suddenly or something right ?"
>Smile and caress her a bit more before going to our group.
>Whisper. "I guess you two can do it now, just.... be gentle and quick please okay ?"

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"But you don`t want the flower to suffer right ? You wouldn`t like if someone woke you up suddenly or something right ?"

>"B-But do flowers e-even h-have f-feelings...?"

>Smile and caress her a bit more before going to our group.

>You touch the fairy a bit more before you go to your group. It seems to comfort her a little.

>Whisper. "I guess you two can do it now, just.... be gentle and quick please okay ?"

>"Alright." Marisa nods, before walking over to the fairy, aiming a small, octagonal object at her head, and firing a very narrow laser from it. The fairy immediately ceases whimpering as the beam pierces her skull, and a second later seems to poof out of existence in a shower of sparks.
>_

[Neovereign]

>Flinch a bit.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Flinch a bit.

>You wince a little bit at the execution...

>"So..." says Marisa, "Should we get back to visiting Yuuka then?"
>_

[Neovereign]

>"Er... yea."

[Monarda]

>"... she was so scared..."
>Head back to the door.
>Is there a door bell or something ?

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Er... yea."

>"... she was so scared..."

>"Well I'd be scared too if I ended up on Yuuka's bad side..."

>Head back to the door.
>Is there a door bell or something ?

>You lead your group back to the door.
>There is no doorbell, but there seems to be a knocker.

>Marisa abruptly knocks on the door a few times.
>_

[Monarda]

>Wait.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Wait.

>You wait...

>Soon, the door opens to reveal a green-haired woman.

>"Do you realize how late it is?" She scowls, "You're also trespassing..."
>"Good to see you too, Yuuka..." Marisa frowns.
>"What do you want, anyway, Kirisame? And who are these?"
>"Well, we, actually it's mostly her," Marisa points at you, "came here to ask you something..."
>_

[Neovereign]

>"I'm really sorry to bother you, but have you seen a rune caped girl with levitating objects flying around?"

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"I'm really sorry to bother you, but have you seen a rune caped girl with levitating objects flying around?"

>"Maybe I did, maybe I didn't. Why should I care?" Yuuka continues to frown.
>_

[Neovereign]

>"She's from the outside world."

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"She's from the outside world."

>"So?"
>_

[Neovereign]

>"She was part of an incident."
