The Touhou RPG

Alright.

Veledren does as asked, waiting patiently.

Nedus walks out to the area Veledren is, and makes a portal to the Underground.

The Portal has four hands reaching out from nowhere, and grabing nothing, then stretching it to reveal the portal. However, this is just Nedus showing off with his power he just gained.

.... Overdid it a little.

Veledren comments, but makes his way through the Portal once it has stabilized.

"Well, atleast its cool" Nedus says.

There seems to be a horned shaped pillar sticking out of the bottom of the portal. Dispite this, this is just my imagination running free, thus not liking the idea.

The end of the Portal opens, making the same enterence. It is now open

He waits patiently, looking through the portal.

All done? I wasn't sure if you were going to have fireworks going off and some music to accompany it.

He says, and then chuckles.

Oh yeah, I may come back to spend time with Aki, if that is alright. We are friends now, if I am not mistaken.

With that, he makes his way through the portal.

Nedus mumbles "And do you want flowers with that sir!!??" Nedus said as he shakes his fist "It wasnt my idea anyways!!!"

"Yay friends!!" Aki said happily

Patchouli sighs.

Veledren rushes over upon seeing them.

I'm back!

Patchouli runs to him

Veledren smiles, taking gentle hold of Patchouli as she comes within reach.

Sorry I took so long to get back... The Phantom had to rest before he could bring me back to Gensokyo.

Im so glad your back! Patchouli says, tears running down the sides of her face.

Veledren keeps her close.

It's okay... I'm glad to be back as well, now, are you alright?

Patchouli nods.

Good... I could only think that you were worrying yourself so much, and then your asthma kicked in... It's why I came as soon as I could.

Im fine, my love Patchouli says, kissing him.

Veledren returns the kiss. Breaking the kiss after a moment to continue speaking.

I'm glad. Now, I may have found a way to defeat the Old One.

How? Yuuka asks

A petrification spell, it will turn him into stone without fail... Now... There is one catch... And a rather important one, at that.

Well, there's a drawback to all powerful spells, usually. It just so turns out that... The caster will also be turned to stone.

Patchouli remains silent.

Like most spells, it can be broken. I have no doubts that Patchouli can find a means to dispel it if it comes to that -- And for that matter, it is also a last resort. If he becomes too powerful that we can't defeat him, and he is able to begin his conquer of Gensokyo. I'll use it.

Well...I have heard of this one before. And I do infact know how to dispell it. Patchouli says, sighing with relief.

Veledren nods.

Good, that is one less thing to worry about, all the same, I'm going to try avoiding it's use if we have any other options. It doesn't hurt to be safe.
