Probe from the Pure Land ~ Eagle Rabbit
]|▬▬|[☯]|▬▬|[
When urban legends were manifesting in Gensokyo,
a rumour started to spread that "Apollo never went to the Moon".
At the same time, a metallic spider appeared around the mountain.
The spider appeared to be slowly wandering around.
Reimu: "So, what's this weird machine you mentioned?"
Sanae: "It happened when the morning mist was still covering the mountain."
It had a form with no imperfections, unbecoming of any other beast or monster.
Mist faded away and the trees withered in the places where the spider passed by.
Reimu: "So, a machine that looked like a spider?"
Sanae: "I only caught a glimpse of it, but it definitely wasn't just some youkai that I mistook."
Reimu: "Maybe it's one of the kappa's tools..."
Once the machine passed by, there were no signs of life.
Tengu flew in the sky overhead, but for some reason, they paid no attention to the spider.
As the foothills came into the spider's view, it slowly clambered down the cliffside.
Sanae: "This is definitely interesting. I can't imagine that its appearance is just a coincidence."
Sanae began to grow restless.
Reimu: "What is it? It's kind of irritating."
Sanae: "That thing looked just like Curiosity."
-Eientei.
Kaguya: "Seems the time has come for them to arrive."
Eirin: "What shall we do?"
Kaguya: "That's obvious, isn't it?
I already prepared myself."
A natural and satisfying answer.
Eirin: "If they're making a move, no human will possibly be able to compete with them.
However, if we were to make any move, we'd fall right into the enemy's hands.
What's more, the youkai of Earth likely can't even interfere to begin with."
Kaguya: "So what do we do?"
Eirin: "I made some medicine for just the occasion.
Get Reisen to deliver this to the shrine maiden and her friends."
-Marisa's house, in the Forest of Magic
The seven Occult Balls that had suddenly appeared.
Marisa had been investigating just what one of the balls had been;
The ball of the Lunar Capital, to be precise.
Marisa: "Looks like this thing was somehow the cause
of that while urban legend uproar, but..."
As she sat bewildered, the moon rabbit Reisen appeared there.
-The metallic spider's march of purification cannot be stopped.
The trees wither before one's eyes. Not one blade of grass was left in the spider's tracks.
When Gensokyo is completely purified, it will be transformed into a perfect world.
Into a beautiful planet with no life on it...

Unlike pretty much any first stage in any other Touhou game, don’t really concern yourself with grabbing as many [P] as you can. Here you want to both get used to and maximize grazing during the chapters for resources. You won’t be given this chance later on in the game.
Similarly as a mid-boss Seiran is like a warm-up to the “graze for resource” mechanic what with her attacks being huge clumps of slow moving bullets.
And as a boss she’s no longer screwing around. Similarly with how many traditions you’re throwing out the window, don’t underestimate her. These attacks are simple so long as you’re careful, but even still for a Stage 1 boss she can really trip you up if you’re reckless.
