Re: Touhou CYOA - Second edition
With the group taking a quick counsel to decide on a course of action, all the females opted to go searching for possible clues. As the impostor had been living in the Yama's place, they deducted that should be the most logical place to look from.
Already looking out for possible hints along the way, the group made way back to the tent. Entering the tent without too much trouble as the guard was not there, they split up to search. Taking a quick look into Komachi's bedroom, Byakuren saw Yuuka getting her breakfast offered to her by the male shinigami. Apparently she wasn't up for using her own hands to eat, so the guy was feeding her what she requested in a specific order. Seeing it best not to disturb these two, she switched to the room next door, Shiki's personal quarters. Despite Komachi's minor protests, she would go through the Yama's belongings if need be to find something helpful. Initial searches didn't show up too much, but once she started taking note of different things scattered around the room, something became apparent. Some of these arcane components were needed for a powerful imprisonment spell. Superior mages didn't need them to cast the spell, but for more unskilled ones it would be a necessity. Besides the ingridients, such a potent sorcery needed a spacious location to allow for a person's imprisonment. It seemed much like the prison Byakuren herself had been placed in the past. "That is something I wouldn't wish on anyone...." the mage thought, remembering the abusively long years spent in darkness, with only her thoughts there to keep her company.
The rest of the investigation was fruitless, everything else had been removed as to not draw undue attention. Taking another look at how the shinigami male was holding up with Yuuka, Byakuren saw that he was doing rather well. He was just helping the youkai lady with getting dressed, helping her get the vest and skirt back on. After getting her parasol handed back, Yuuka kissed the man on his cheek and petted his head, now in full gear. "Good boy... I think I like you. Maybe you should come with me~" she thought out loud, but got instantly refused. "Awww, too bad. Well, I'll be off now." the Flower Master gave a final reply, before leaving the man and the group behind.
Seeing Yuuka's departure, the group got out. This search had given vague ideas where to go looking for the missing Yama.
A. Search in a considered locations
B. Ask someone for further wisdom, possibly help. (Comment who should be asked)
C. Some other madness brewing in your skull?
