Summary

Act 1

One day, a little while before lunchtime, Reimu went on a visit with her friend Yukari Yakumo, and returned along with a gift in the form of a "CODEC device" which enabled remote communication, and bearing news: as a result of a time-loop caused by a time-travelling youkai called Meimu, Reimu had been certain she would survive until the present day, but she'd now reached the other end of the loop, and her survival was officially uncertain. Between that and Sacchin's recent progress, it was time to step up her training, starting with a major test.

Reimu told Sacchin that the test would take place in a cottage in the Forest of Magic, filled with obstacles to overcome and Guardians to face. The goal was to locate the so-called Precious Object, to prevent the Ungodly Object from falling into the wrong hands, and to find out the true nature of these objectives. Satsuki accepted, with a certain amount of apprehension.

After lunch, Reimu transported Sacchin to the edge of the Forest of Magic, and retreated to the vantage point from which she would remotely view the procedings. Almost immediately, Sacchin met Cirno, an ice-youkai who had once been a fairy but was now something altogether different. She led Sacchin to the cottage, where she revealed that she was, in fact, the first guardian which Sacchin was meant to face. They duelled, and Sacchin won, then entered the cottage. This was all being watched on a fenestrated wall by Reimu, the witch Marisa Kirisame, and presumably others.
