Gensoukyou Chronicles

The Gensoukyou Chronicles- Abridged
It has come to my attention that there are some in the village that require a more abridged version of my Chronicles of Gensoukyou, for various reasons. I suppose that this could also be a good opportunity to revisit certain events, and even record any advancements in the topic. Without further ado, an amendment to the Chronicles of Gensoukyou.

The Great Lunar War
The Great Lunar War, considered to be one of the greatest clashes in the history of Gensoukyou, was also one of the greatest humiliation to Youkai thus far. The older times of Gensoukyou were, as today, dominated by the Youkai, who had sprung up in prodigiously large numbers. It could be said that their attitudes reflected their numbers as well; very rowdy and confident in themselves. The Youkai Sage, Yakumo Yukari, took it upon herself, unbeknownst to the other Youkai, to teach a lesson of humility. The sage spins a small tale about the people on the moon, quickly entralling the others. The ambitious Youkai decide that they are going to attempt to beat the 'moon people', and a game of capture the princess, much like one you might see in a schoolyard, is arranged. The Youkai ask the sage to lead them; after all, how could they lose with the great Yakumo Yukari backing them up? Yukari arranges for the 'battle' to take place and the two sides quickly clash. It should be noted that the Youkai leader did not actually participate much, letting the Youkai charge blindly ahead. However, the Youkai underestimated the Lunarians and eventually lost the game. While this was only a game, the Lunarians promoted the events as an actual war, a belief that quickly took hold among many people. And so, a basis for Youkai to be a little more cautious and not think so poorly of others was established. In this way, Yakumo Yukari has saved the humans a good deal of trouble, for if the Youkai were as fearless as they were back then, I am not sure that the village as it is now would be able to survive. I can't help but wonder if I would even be here to write this now, if things had been different during the time of Aichi.

Keeping all of that in mind, there has also been a rather large attack on the village not too long ago. Two powerful individuals, Houjuu Nue and the spirit known as Mima, laid waste to a portion of the village, resulting in an almost unprecedented evaluation of the village's defenses and study of methods to make it more resistant against similar attacks.

The Vampire Treaty
Vampires are not native to Gensoukyou, or any of Japan for that matter. The appearance of such beings in our Gensoukyou was quite unexpected, and no one really knew that they would be as powerful as they are. When they first appeared, they had no qualms with taking humans from the village from which to feed. However, the method in which they did this posed a great threat to the stability of the human village's population over time. Thankfully, it was put to an end once the vampires were defeated by powerful Youkai. Of course, the vampires still need to eat as well, and in a place like Gensoukyou, which is made for non-humans, they were not going to be made to starve. As such, the Vampire Treaty was drafted. The treaty states that the vampires are not to attack the village, or otherwise harm the humans within it, and in exchange, the Youkai sages will see to it that they are fed; presumably with humans from the outside.

There came a time, however, where the shipment of humans to the vampires ceased, and they no longer had any food. They took measures to spirit away humans from the village by taking advantage of their maid's ability to stop time. Needless to say, when the humans eventually found out, they were not at all happy about this. I took the initiative to step in and propose an amendment to the treaty that serves to keep the village safe in the event that shipments of humans from the outside cease once again. Thankfully, there have been no hostilities between us and the vampires, as I fear that the casualties on both sides would be too severe to justify for any means.
