I donno about that. I just think we have way more pressing problems to worry about, than whether someone's telling the truth about magic and advanced sci-fi. Besides, lying about something hard to believe isn't nearly as bad as lying about being a killer in this game. The VIPs are actively playing, but I'm not buying that they're doing this just for kicks. It has to stop, but I also want to find out why.

Okay, I think I get it. Gensokyo's basically like those really shut-off mountain villages in the middle of nowhere with no contact to the civilized world. Nature's probably left pristine and you get to preserve your own culture, something like that but with magic involved?

So what's the modern day DATE when all three of you got kidnapped? Do you know, or is time something you folks don't really keep track of?
