Seija Quest

[Tom]

> Can we use the mallet to identify things?

> Not in any way you know of

> Does mallet use have any verbal or somatic requirements?

> You have to tap it on the object which you want to affect, like for example tapping bullets to make them huge.

[Kilgamayan]

> Well, shoot.
> Lightly tap our robe where the lid is twice, then listen to the doll continue.

[Tom]

> Well, shoot.
> Lightly tap our robe where the lid is twice, then listen to the doll continue.

> You feel two slight pinches in response

> The doll pretends to clear its throat and continues "As all you Youkai probably already know the Shrine Maiden has become quite should I say ... soft these days"
> "Little nuisance incidents followed by a slap on the wrist and an invitation to a ... tea party of all things!" the doll spits and continues enthousiastically "and that's precisely what this competition intends to change!"

> "We'll call this game High Stakes Incident Showdown~!"

[Kilgamayan]

> Scowl.
> Mutter under our breath: "Little nuisance incidents...?!"
> Let's see where this goes.

[Tom]

> Scowl.
> Mutter under our breath: "Little nuisance incidents...?!"

> You'll show it what revolution means!

> Let's see where this goes.

> Everyone just looks around confused while some laugh at the little doll trying to puff up and look threatening

> In response to this the doll turns around with a dejected look on its face, crying "But I promised there would be a prize!" and immediately it has everyone's attention once more.

[Kilgamayan]

> Wait, what's behind it? The shrine building?

[Tom]

> Wait, what's behind it? The shrine building?

> Yeah, it's sitting on the donation box

[Kilgamayan]

> Make for the inside of the shrine while still listening to what the doll has to say.

[Tom]

> Make for the inside of the shrine while still listening to what the doll has to say.

> You were about to walk into the inside of the shrine when Reimu and Suika slide the door open wondering what's causing all the ruckus.

> The doll initially looks at you suspiciously when you decide to approach but then ignores you

> Remilia steps up and asks the doll "In the paper it said you'll grant us any wish.  How are we to be sure you can even do such things, let alone if you'll keep your word!"
> Marisa continues "Yeah it's nothing more than a toy!" and reaches for something in her pocket before Alice grabs her arm and whispers something to her.

> The doll thinks for a moment before materializing a stack of cards in it's hands.  It then jumps and somersaults onto the main table behind you all and proceeds to leave the deck on it.

> It exclaims "The proof is in the cards ladies!" before spin jumping back onto the donation box and remembering something embarrassing "oh and gentlemen, I forgot!" as Rinnosuke cleared his throat

[Kilgamayan]

> Let Reimu and Suika go by, then head inside after they get out of the doorway.

[Tom]

> Let Reimu and Suika go by, then head inside after they get out of the doorway.

> Reimu and Suika leave to go look at what's on the table as you head inside

> You're now in Hakurei Shrine 1F

> There's no one here

[Kilgamayan]

> Make our way to whatever room is on the inside that shares a wall with the wall behind the donation box.

[Tom]

> Make our way to whatever room is on the inside that shares a wall with the wall behind the donation box.

> You're already in the main room and the donation box is just outside the doors behind you

[Kilgamayan]

> So the doors to the inside are directly behind the donation box?

[Tom]

> So the doors to the inside are directly behind the donation box?

> There's a small gap in between to walk through but yes, the box is directly in front of the sliding doors.

[Kilgamayan]

> Can we sense anyone else inside here? Are we even capable of doing that?

[Tom]

> Can we sense anyone else inside here? Are we even capable of doing that?

> You don't feel anything odd in here but no you don't have any kind of special senses.

[Kilgamayan]

> Could we give ourselves an ability to sense entities with the mallet?

[Tom]

> Could we give ourselves an ability to sense entities with the mallet?

> You could certainly try, though it would drain the mallet's energy by some amount

[Kilgamayan]

> Reopen the doors, so we can see the doll.
> Then tap ourselves with the mallet and make a wish to be able to sense entities.

[Tom]

> Reopen the doors, so we can see the doll.
> Then tap ourselves with the mallet and make a wish to be able to sense entities.

> You slide open the doors enough to see the doll watching over the crowd as they look through various cards on the table.

> Then with the power of the miracle mallet you tap your hand wishing for the ability to sense entities and ... nothing changes?

> Either the ability didn't work or there's no invisible entities there to sense?  Whatever it is you can tell the mallet's energy was drained so it must've done something.

[Kilgamayan]

> Can we sense the entities that we can see? The doll, the crowd, etc.

[Tom]

> Can we sense the entities that we can see? The doll, the crowd, etc.

> No...  Maybe you should have been more specific what type of entities you wish to sense, like living, dead, supernatural etc?

> You feel a strong pinch and Seija whispers "You're making us look suspicious!  Some are going to think you've got something to do with the doll!"

[Kilgamayan]

> Frown deeper.
> Stow the mallet.
> Head around the doll to the table with the cards on it.

[Tom]

> Frown deeper.
> Stow the mallet.
> Head around the doll to the table with the cards on it.

> You head on over to the table with the cards on it and see everyone furiously swapping cards around.  There's a pile of them on the table and they look like blank spell cards.

[Kilgamayan]

> Furrow our brow.
> If there is room to squeeze in and get a closer look, do so.

[Tom]

> Furrow our brow.
> If there is room to squeeze in and get a closer look, do so.

> You find a spot at the table between Yukari and Alice and start looking at the cards on the table, which are all blank but people seem to be looking through them regardless.

[Kilgamayan]

> Take one no one is looking through and examine it.

[Tom]

> Take one no one is looking through and examine it.

> You pick one up to examine both sides of it, it's just a blank spell card

> Alice who's sitting next to you asks if you'd like to swap for hers, Yukari also offers a trade for hers

[Kilgamayan]

> "Um...uh..."
> Look back and forth between them frantically. This is suddenly overwhelming!
