Sannyo Komakusa's Fantasy Rebirth Story
Wow, so much open space!
I'll easily be able to spot any enemies!
???
Hey, what are you doing out in the open? You're either crazy courageous or just plain crazy.
Sannyo
Either that, or you came here knowing this is my turf. That's probably it, huh?
Sannyo
So what gives, PLAYER? Couldn't wait for me in the village?
Everyone's saying we all need to work together.
That includes you.
Sannyo
Huh.
Sannyo
So that's the reason the Hakurei shrine maiden sent you so high up the treacherous mountain.
Sannyo
I don't get it. As if things aren't bad enough already with the Lost Word Incident.
I'm the only one who can move freely right now!
Sannyo
You don't say?
Besides... I want to help, too.
Sannyo
...
Sannyo
Not a chance.
What?!
Sannyo
I speak for all yamajorou when I say we don't approve of putting a little kid like you in this much danger.
Sannyo
I'm sure the yamanba up in their sanctuaries would say the same. We're practically relatives, after all.
S-So what do you want me to do?
Sannyo
I want you...
Sannyo
To let me take a good look at you before you venture off alone.
Eep! (She smells like smoke!)
Sannyo
Take shallow breaths. I don't plan on controlling your mind just yet.
Sannyo
Spirituality gives us youkai life. Some say we're spiritual beings, but that's a bit pretentious if you ask me.
Sannyo
The reason my gambling den is so popular is because gambling is a spiritual activity.
Sannyo
If you went there, you'd understand... but you're still too young.
Sannyo
You have to wait till you're all grown up.
Aw, no fair!
Sannyo
It won't necessarily be fun for you. Most of the people there are kinda useless.
Sannyo
Anyway...
Sannyo
Youkai value spiritualism, so we have wildly different opinions. In human terms, it's like we're from different cultures.
But the human world is constantly divided...
Sannyo
A world where everyone thinks the same would be terrifying. Life wouldn't be worth living in a place like that.
Sannyo
It might sound strange coming from a youkai like me, but I have a humane solution.
Sannyo
My ability lets me interfere with the mind. If I teamed up with others like me, we could unite the youkai.
Sannyo
But it would only be temporary. People would go back to normal once everything's over.
Sannyo
Not that we need to go that far. The youkai will probably agree to help you anyway.
Sannyo
Think of what I said as a backup plan. The main plan is to power up the youkai as spiritual beings.
Sannyo
And with my smoke, I can give them fine-tuned enhancements while preventing any possible rampages.
Wow... You're incredible, Miss Sannyo!
Sannyo
Cut it out. I'm not that incredible.
Sannyo
But... in order for the backup plan to be viable, you need to head to the Rainbow Dragon Cave.
The Rainbow Dragon Cave?!
Sannyo
That's right. I'll even take you there myself.
Sannyo
You'll understand more when we get there. I'm sure that will quell any doubts.
Sannyo
Follow me. Or should I carry you like a baby?
Sannyo
Whoa, what's this all of a sudden?
Sannyo
Th-This is...!
It's the other reason I came to find you.
Sannyo
...!
Sannyo
Even without this...
Sannyo
I would've fought to protect you and Gensokyo.
Sannyo
Some of those sages really do lack subtlety.
Sannyo
...
Sannyo
Hehe, this outfit brings back memories, though. I don't dislike it. Not one bit.
Glad to hear it!
Sannyo
Teehee.
Sannyo
Kids will always be kids to me. We youkai just live too long.
Sannyo
When this is all done, promise you'll come and find me again. I'll cook you up something delicious.
Sannyo
But you have to promise...
Sannyo
You'll come back.
Costume Presentation
Sannyo
You're preparing to embark on a long and arduous journey, and all I can do is help ease the pain you'll feel... No, the folks at Eientei explained to me how vital my help is. You might be little, but I'm willing to bet the fate of Gensokyo on you.
