The Spread Shot of Parsee Mizuhashi, who has almost reached the end (a Touhou LW original). She listens to the dead in this attack. Parsee can hear the voices of the dead. Phantoms, vengeful spirits―they all have something unique to say. Those who pray to the hashihime are usually after one thing: the gift of severed ties. To the living, severing ties can be a necessary or selfish act, depending on the circumstances. But perhaps for the dead, it's one of the few ways they can finally be freed from lingering regrets and attachments. In that sense, Parsee's counseling plays a role in keeping them in the Underworld. "Everything brings back memories. But right now, I don't wish for severed ties. I wish for reconnection."

The Spread Shot of Parsee Mizuhashi, who has almost reached the end (a Touhou LW original). She listens to the Underworld caretaker in this attack. Parsee may not be able to read minds like a certain Underworld youkai can, but she can get to know people very well. Because she makes a point to truly listen to others, she can grasp what it feels like to be that mind-reading youkai. Reading minds is a power so incredible it could make anyone jealous. But Parsee knows it's not as simple as it seems. She also knows that in the Underworld, being hated is practically the same as being praised.

A Spell Card of Parsee Mizuhashi, who has almost reached the end (a Touhou LW original). She recalls a tsurube-otoshi with whom she shared joys and sorrows. Among the youkai in the Night Parade, there was a tsurubebi. Tsurubebi are like the ancestors of tsurube-otoshi, and are thought to be mysterious fires ignited by old tree spirits on rainy days. It's as simple as water nourishes wood, wood feeds fire. The key here is wood temperament, which shares the same attribute as Parsee's jade-green eyes. It's also what links the water god hashihime with the flames of her iron circlet.

A Spell Card of Parsee Mizuhashi, who has almost reached the end (a Touhou LW original). She recalls a tsuchigumo with whom she shared joys and sorrows. Youkai, like Parsee Mizuhashi, with deep connections to curses and rituals, can be seen as remnants of ancient shrine maidens. This is especially true if they carry strong ties to folk beliefs. The practice of offering prayers to human-shaped figures and performing rituals upon them dates back to the Jomon era. At a certain point, such practices ceased to be seen as ways to ward off evil and were instead viewed as means to cast curses. This marked a turning point where traditional folk practitioners began to be labeled as witches. Blessings and curses, happiness and calamity. These aren't simply opposites. They're two sides of the same coin, or perhaps even the same surface twisted like a Mobius strip. Defiant shrine maidens, who once fought bravely for their kin, lived in pit dwellings passed down since the Jomon era. Their lifestyle resembled that of tsuchigumo. Though outdated in form, these pit dwellings were created with highly advanced techniques and held the secrets to civil engineering methods that had long vanished from the cities. The humans in the capital wanted this knowledge. To build tall, beautiful, and durable structures was a symbol of power and authority.

The Last Word of Parsee Mizuhashi, who has almost reached the end (a Touhou LW original). She waits endlessly atop a bridge. Sure, Parsee's good at driving nails. But doesn't mean she goes around building things. All she does is bless bridges. History shows that bridges have always stood apart from other structures. Creating one that's practical, safe, and durable is the ultimate architectural challenge. The environment they must endure is harsh, and their importance is immense. Mother Nature could easily use all her flowing water to sever the connection between riverbanks that a bridge represents. But not if there's a water god protecting that bridge. "Really, Yuugi? I know you're the one who keeps the Former Capital youkai in line. But why are you reminding me of all this? What are you trying to distract me from? You're always trying to play nice with everyone. Let me guess. You've been sticking your nose into other people's business. Honestly..."
