>"Well, good luck. To all of us."
>Look up. Do we see anything that we have any idea how to interpret?
>Otherwise, wait patiently
>"Indeed," says Keine.
>You see...a whole lot of darkness, save for a couple streaks of dim light.
>"What," Parsee says. "There's nothing up there!"
>"It's not written yet," says Keine. "There's just some sort of possibilities that are fairly likely to happen."
>With that, she begins to get to work. Or...at least you think she gets to work, as she closes her eyes and holds the crystal tightly. The colorful lines around you begin to whip quietly whip around. At one point, one of them touches you, and phases through you. Parsee holds tightly to your hand. You watch them with an eye used to discerning danmaku patterns, and notice many of them intertwine and some stretch off beyond your sight. Curiously enough, for all their twisting and wending, none on them ever curve back on themselves, they're always going upward, and never downward.
>"I think I get it now," whispers Parsee at one point. "She's Stargazer, isn't she? Look at the hair, and how she's built."
>After some time passes, maybe ten minutes, the swaying of the lines comes to a halt. "That should do it," says Keine. "I'll definitely have to give it a check-up for the next few months, but everything should be proper again. I should warn you, though, there are going to be some...oddities. People may notice them, they may not. It won't be anything huge, I don't think, but I won't be able to tell what they are until we actually step out. At the very least, everyone should be fine. So, get ready."
>You are in your bedroom in the Palace of the Earth Spirits. It is moderately sized, and pretty messy. Clothes and things are everywhere, while your desk holds your collection of shiny trinkets. You wardrobe hangs half open. Obvious exits are North.
