Kyouko's Fantasy Rebirth Story
Huh? I thought she'd be here...
???
Stop right there.
*gasp*
(Someone's behind me!)
???
There's a strategy meeting being held right now. Any suspicious visitors are to be escorted off the premises.
???
...Oh, it's you!
Kyouko
Hi, PLAYER!
Kyouko
You shoulda told me you were coming! I've been meaning to speak to you!
Hi, Kyouko! Miss Miko and the others are here, right?
Kyouko
Uh-huh. We organized this ages ago, but as soon as the meeting started, they all started arguing.
Kyouko
So long as the two leaders get along it should be fine, though.
I'm sure Miss Byakuren and Miss Miko will get along.
And at least everyone's lively enough to argue!
Kyouko
You're right! You know us all so well, PLAYER!
Kyouko
Plus, you're doing, like, way more to help than I am!
No way! That's totally not true!
Kyouko
Uhh, I'm pretty sure it is.
Kyouko
Myouren Temple really is a wonderful place.
Kyouko
I spend all my time practicing sutras at home, playing music with Mystia, and learning to be a monk here at the temple.
Kyouko
The head priest is kind, Miss Shou is really cool, and the other disciples and Nazrin are all incredible.
Kyouko
But they all reminisce together...
Kyouko
About the Underworld!
R-Right...
Kyouko
I'm the only one left out! ...Well, I suppose Lady Hijiri and Miss Mami are too, but that's different.
Kyouko
Lady Hijiri came back from Makai and everyone looks up to her. And Miss Mami is friends with Nue!
Kyouko
I'm just...
Kyouko
I'm just the newbie who came down from the Youkai Mountain without an invitation!
Kyouko
No one wants me here! *sob* *sob*
Where'd you get that idea?!
And if anyone's a newbie in Gensokyo, it's me!
I gotta say, I think you're a pretty awesome youkai.
Kyouko
I dunno... I feel like there's nothing special about me.
Kyouko
Sure, I'm in a band, but Prismriver With H and Two Girls Band are way more popular...
You're good at memorizing lyrics, though, right?
Kyouko
I'm the best!
Kyouko
It's just like memorizing sutras and sermons! All I need to do is sing through them a couple times!
(That's so cool!)
Kyouko
Me and Mystia are putting on a special Choujuu Gigaku concert for the evacuated villagers later.
Kyouko
I also have to help Kogasa look after the little kids and give everyone a hand distributing food.
If you ask me...
That's pretty special.
Kyouko
You think so?
Kyouko
The other disciples can memorize sutras, too. And I'm hardly the only one in a band or volunteering.
Kyouko
So I don't think any of that makes me special.
Even if it's something simple...
Helping others without hesitation is an amazing thing.
Kyouko
Huh...
Kyouko
Come to think of it, Lady Hijiri said something like that to me once.
Kyouko
A true good deed is done without knowing it's a good deed... or something. I was just copying everyone else, though.
Most people don't do good deeds whatever the case.
Kyouko
I guess you're right.
Kyouko
That reminds me! I'm supposed to give the villagers a sermon later in Lady Hijiri's place!
Kyouko
Like I said, I can memorize stuff just by listening to it, so I should be able to recite it perfectly!
Kyouko
I dunno if that's enough, though. Even if I can remember the words, I'm no head priest...
Don't worry, I'm sure it'll help the villagers a ton!
The words are powerful enough as they are.
You've been given a big task! You really are amazing!
Kyouko
N-Now you're making me nervous...!
Kyouko
But I'm ready to give it my all like I always do!
(She says she's just copying those around her...)
(But that just shows how much attention she pays.)
(I'm sure everyone realizes how special she is.)
Kyouko
Is this for me? I'd heard the rumors... but is it finally my turn?!
Kyouko
Wow, it's beautiful...
Kyouko
I think I wanna wear it...
Kyouko
At my concert later!
That's a great idea! It suits you perfectly!
Kyouko
I'll sing my heart out and put a smile on all the village kids' faces!
(Her music might be a little intense for the kids!)
Kyouko
With this, I can carry out my final task.
Kyouko
You know I'm a yamabiko, right? Well, did you know that word has another meaning? "Echoing through the ravine."
Kyouko
I'm the third youkai in the Night Parade.
...
Kyouko
The last Night Parade was a long time ago, so I could be misremembering slightly. But that doesn't matter now.
(I thought she was good at memorizing things...?)
Kyouko
Now's the time for me to take you to the other Night Parade youkai.
Kyouko
Follow me, PLAYER.
Kyouko
Into the temple!

Kyouko
So that's why Lady Hijiri recites sutras! Those words are meant to be spoken directly to the truth of the universe... I still don't quite get it. I wonder which word is the one you're looking for? ...Huh? Yeah, I still remember every sutra I heard.
