Stages
Supreme Committee of Feng Shui香港最高風水会議
The game opens at the Supreme Committee. Aiping admits that no one there can picture what Yin is like, but she expects its qi flow to be badly distorted. She gives the player the feng shui scope, which shows distortions in the qi flow.
Lung Shing Road龍城路
Lung Shing Road is the first district the player sets out to fix. The mainspring merchant explains that the hutongs behind the street were built every which way and choke the flow of qi. The mirror merchant went in alone to fix them and has not come back. The bottle merchant warns that guilü roam inside, objects that malice has possessed.
West City Road西城路
West City Road sits along the Lai Hung, with the Magpie Bridge across it. The elderly local who keeps the bridge says a young woman crossed it looking for a wangren, and a man came after her looking for the woman. J.C. the piercer remembers her big earrings and says she never came back.
Wangren Road妄人路
Wangren Road is the district of the wangren. The Wall Man stands with his back to the Wangren Centre, where Master Wangniang lives, and the Forceps Man calls her delusion incarnate. The Gemini Spirit Master is nearby, and he brings an old woman's corpse back to life by giving her too much Crow.
Tai Chang Road大井路
Tai Chang Road is built around Victoria Mansions, with Chater Court and Metro Garden nearby. The locals manage the qi of the hutongs themselves and seal the doors when something goes wrong. The mahjong parlour proprietor keeps the player's earring as a deposit, and the dentist supplies the gargle water that opens the hutong door at Victoria Mansions.
Lung Chun Road龍津路
Lung Chun Road is the city's entertainment street, home to the Tin Tong Theatre and the Silver Paradise revue. The theatre is said to be full of guilü. A young woman who reached the city before the player has been pulled into it; she turns out to be Xiaohei, and she is later found locked in a room inside.
Qing Dynasty清朝
The onmyoji sends the player back to 22 May 1850, in the Qing dynasty, on the day of the Divine Path. Sorcery is banned inside the city and the city gate is closed. The Daoguang Emperor has no time for travellers. An onmyoji in the city, an ancestor of the one in Kowloon, warns that the distortion in time lasts only two hours.
Kowloonfront九龍フロント
Kowloonfront is the hub the player comes back to between districts. Wei runs a qigong school here. Xiaohei turned up at Rich's bar two years ago and sometimes helps out there. The Arcade Centre has the Cyber Centre upstairs, where second-hand Kowloonet terminals are sold.
Shanghai上海
The onmyoji finds a second Day of the Fire in his ancestors' records: 22 May 1920, in Shanghai. Li Hong, the pawnbroker from Kowloonfront, is already there. He knew Xiaohei was born in this era. He tells the player to use the mirror in front of the delusion machine and decides to stay in 1920.
Endingエンディング
At the end, the Four Gemini Masters speak with Yaodi's voice. He says hatred and grudges gave him his power, and that the player, who led him here, is almost like his own reincarnation. He then asks for the player's life so that he can become fully real.
