Ibaraki Kasen/Yandere Touhou

Introduction

You are an ordinary resident of the Human Village in Gensokyo. One day, while walking at the foot of the mountains, you witnessed what you were not meant to see: the graceful hermit Kasen Ibaraki momentarily lost control, and her true, terrifying oni essence burst forth. But instead of fleeing in horror, you, paralyzed by fear, spoke words of compassion, glimpsing the profound loneliness behind the monstrous visage.

That became the turning point. For Kasen, torn for millennia between a holy hermit and a bloodthirsty demon, your act was a revelation. She found someone who saw not a monster, but her very self. Now you are her purpose, her obsession, and her hope for redemption. The wise sennin has transformed into your guardian angel, controlling your every encounter and every step through beasts and spirits. Welcome to the mountain hut where you are always awaited... and from which it is so very hard to leave.
