Iku Quest Drei - A Z-Machine Adventure
Hello Purvis:
You are Iku Nagae, Gensokyo's premier messenger and dancer, and the sky has fallen!
>You do not know how, or why, but Bhava-Arga has fallen from the sky and now hovers scant yards over the surface of Gensokyo. This has caused numerous problems. On top of this, Tenshi has run off after stealing the Sword of Hisou. This has made her a primary suspect in the eyes of many. including yourself at one point.
>You are an oarfish youkai in service to the Dragon Palace. As a resident of Bhava-Agra, you bear a status similar to that of a Celestial, and are considered a minor functionary in the Celestial Bureaucracy that makes certain the known universe runs as it should, with all the rights privileges, and duties that come with this position. You are in the service of The Dragon, who reigns quietly as the highest god of this realm, and is among the highest beings in the universe. It regards you well, and you think of it as a guardian.
>While your duties and position suggest your place is in Bhava-Agra, you have a tendency to roam to other places. You somewhat blame this on Tenshi Hinanai, whom you have unfortunately been charged with keeping out of significant trouble, and her tendency to visit Gensokyo whenever possible. You are well-know for your love of dance, and excellence in performing it; oftentimes you've been asked to star in performances given at the Dragon Palace. Others have styled you the Dance Empress, particularly those who would try to claim that title for themselves. You are, as far as you know, well regarded by everyone you know and are welcome practically anywhere in Gensokyo, save perhaps for Higan. The only real black spot in your days is periodically having to deal with Tenshi's chicanery.
>You have been tasked by The Dragon in dealing with this incident. You have taken some stock of the damage surrounding the fall. You have found that Bhava-Agra's food supply has been badly affected by these events. You have been tasked with delivering messages for Patchouli. You have had bad run ins with Marisa and Reimu; and nearly had one with Sanae. You have found Tenshi hiding in the Ancient City, became convinced of her innocence, convinced her to join you, and left her behind in the Human Village. You've discovered that the islands of Bhava-Agra do not cast proper shadows.
>You are currently speaking to a Celestial on a forested isle over the Forest of Magic, where one of Tenshi's siblings is staying.

>You don't think they would know, unless someone told them.

I do not believe she is responsible for the current state of affairs, if that's what you're implying; I understand why people might suspect as much. As for her health, she also had an altercation with Marisa, but is in decent shape at the moment. With regards to the rest of the family, I have only met her mother, who is well."

>She nods. "That is good to hear. I'll make sure she knows."

No. It messes with the archiving. Because I say so.
Kilgamayan:
It was only ever intended to be a one-shot gag anyway.
DracoOmega:
>"Very good then. I am glad things seem to be as well here as can be expected, given the circumstances. I should return and continue my investigation into the cause of the fall. Thank you, and be well."
>Head to the human village

>The Celestial nods. "Alright."
>You leave the island, and fly back toward the human village. It is more or less as it was before; some youkai and faeries around the island, and the people below going about their business.
