Day 420

I realized it's been around half a year since the last time I drew this particular Youkai Mountain fairy design, so here's her again.

Here's a little something I made for @YoukaiMountain to thank him for all the help with The Glitch Fairy merch!

Make sure to visit his shop if you are seeking a Fumo friend!

Youkai Mountain

Threat level: High

Encounterable youkai: Tengu, kappa, etc.

A place where a great number of youkai moved in long before the time of man, Youkai Mountain.

Usually, Youkai Mountain is just referred to as "the mountain".

The youkai living here have developed their own distinct society, separate from the humans and the youkai living in the foothills, upholding one corner of Gensokyo's power balance.

In particular, the tengu and kappa on the mountain have developed technology (*14) comparable or greater than the outside world's. As such, there are no youkai invading this mountain.

The mountain youkai's camaraderie is stronger than that of any other group in Gensokyo, and with advanced technology, their daily life is futuristic and bountiful.

However, because of that strong internal cohesion, their resistance towards outsiders can be quite formidable.

They are especially merciless towards trespassers, and will chase them away with all their might no matter who they may be.

Because of this, the actual state of affairs on the mountain is mostly a mystery.

Rumors say that within the mountain exists a large hollow cavity where a futuristic utopia just like the outside world is being built (*15).

In that place, the sun's light shines all day long, an automated factory produces the necessary items to meet the needs of everyday life, and the youkai drink sake while reading the newspaper and discussing the news, living blissfully.

Within this hollow cavity, the forbidden act of opening a hole that connects to the outside world through the boundary is perpetrated, so other youkai and humans are not allowed to enter. At least, that is what they say...

*14: The tengu's technology includes photography, printing and publication. The kappa work with iron and steel and also are skilled in crafting tools.

*15: When reading the tengu's newspaper, you get the feeling that their articles are not reporting the whole truth.

Day 376

I took a drawing class earlier this year to help get better, and I was required to get oil pastels for it, so if I own them, I might as well use them.
