mayfield_rpg, why can't I quit you?!

[newbie_goddess]

[Sleeping the morning away is a displaced, soon to be very confused little shrine maiden. The alarm clock beside her bed going off, she groans before turning over groggily and sitting up. She stretches, slowly opening up her eyes and staring off into space.]

Good morning... Huh? This isn't my futon.

[She lifts up the blanket and looks at it, then

[Rider just...stares in surprise at the new arrival.]

[newbie_goddess]

[Unfortunately for Rider, she has somewhat of an intimidating stare. Sanae raises her shoulders a little.]

Uh, excuse me...

[gorgeous_gorgon]

...

...So this place has brought someone else into this house...

[newbie_goddess]

[Blink.]

What?

[gorgeous_gorgon]

I know not where you are from, but you are no longer anywhere you recognize. And here, in Mayfield, we are expected to live as families.

You have been placed in mine.

[newbie_goddess]

Mayfield? Did Lady Yasaka move the shrine again and not say anything? But I thought that we were finally settling in in Gensokyo--

Huh? Wait, families? Placed? I don't think I understand.

[gorgeous_gorgon]

...Take a seat. This may take some time.

[newbie_goddess]

[And she plops down on the couch behind her.]

[gorgeous_gorgon]

You are in a town known as Mayfield. Any powers or possessions you may have had are now gone, and you are expected to live your life like a happy, "normal" person.

[newbie_goddess]

But how did I get here? Was it some youkai's doing? Maybe this is another incident! If that's the case, then I'll--

...I can't do anything without my powers. I'm powerless to stop this from happening.

[gorgeous_gorgon]

No one knows who is responsible for this. However, your powers will come back in time. They are not lost forever.

[newbie_goddess]

They come back? How?

[gorgeous_gorgon]

They come in the form of letters or packages sent to us by the mayor. But they only seem to come during or after an event.

[newbie_goddess]

An event? Like a festival?

[gorgeous_gorgon]

...No. The town alters itself or puts us through some sort of trial. There was a week where we were forced into a game with people's lives at stake. And I have also been told that the people here once had to go a full week without food.

[newbie_goddess]

[Her eyes get a little wide, and suddenly she is very quiet.]

That... that's horrible...
