Hey there, the name's Hong Meiling! So does anyone have any idea where I am? I think I got really lost... If I don't get back soon the Mistress will be upset with me, haha~ But I've never seen this part of Gensokyo; it's actually really pretty! I'd ask what you guys do for fun around here but I've really got to be getting back. So if anyone's got

...Sounds like most of your friends from the mansion already found you.

[He could hear Flandre from across the hall, at any rate.]

I'm Adell. I'm a friend of Patchouli and Koakuma. Did they already give you directions over here?

[Voicing forever]

[lotusgatekeeper]

Nice to meetcha, Adell.

Nope! I'm still completely lost. Directions would be awesome!

[Voicin' all the time]

[vulcanblazer]

[A rough map of the village should show up on her journal.]

Dunno where exactly you are, but this is where you need to go.

[A big circle will appear around Community Housing One.]

We're all on the bottom floor of that building. If you're in the village, I can probably give you better directions than that, though.

[lotusgatekeeper]

*YOU'RE TOTALLY ASSUMING MEILING IS GOOD AT READING MAPS.*

Okay! I just gotta figure out where I am on this map! I'm probably somewhere in all of that green. Green is where the forest is, right?

[vulcanblazer]

...Yup. You're all the way out there, huh? Typical, people always end up out there.

Do you hear a river or stream nearby?

[lotusgatekeeper]

No... hey wait!

*She's silent for a couple of minutes.*

I hear one!

[vulcanblazer]

Good, that's a start. You can use that to navigate. Not knowing where you are might make this difficult, but odds are, follow the river's current. It should lead you toward the village. If you end up at a lake though, turn around and go the other way. You're bound to cross the village eventually.

And I can always come out and look for you too, if you need the help.

[lotusgatekeeper]

Nah, don't worry about me! I can handle it. Thanks for the help! I see why you're a friend of Patchouli and Koakuma's.

[vulcanblazer]

Hey, it's not a problem at all. Just glad I could. I'm in Room 4 on the first floor of Community One. Koa lives next door, and Patchouli, Remilia, and Flandre all live right here too. So you shouldn't have trouble finding them if you can make it here.

[lotusgatekeeper]

Okay! Thanks again!

2/2 [now with actions]

[lotusgatekeeper]

*Thinking that this is Remilia's place, Meiling is now at your door knocking.*

[Action]

[vulcanblazer]

[And Adell will answer the door a moment later. Have a bit of a smile.]

You must be Meiling, right? Looks like you found your way over here safely.

[lotusgatekeeper]

Oh yeah, hey Adell!

*You'll notice that Meiling has twigs and leaves in her hair and some scratches on her arms. Basically she looks like hell.*

Is my Mistress there? You'd know her as Remilia.

[vulcanblazer]

She's right across the hall.

[He points to that door there.]

...But uh. Do you want to clean yourself up a bit first? You can use my bathroom to get all that stuff out of your hair if you want to.

And you should probably get those cuts treated so they don't get infected.

[lotusgatekeeper]

I cannot! I am already very late for meeting my Mistress. She will certainly scold me. Physical appearance and health both come after my duty to the Mistress!

[vulcanblazer]

Damn, you certainly are devoted, I'll give you that. But don't run yourself so ragged you forget to take care of yourself.

Either way, I won't keep you. We'll have plenty of time to talk later, right?
