Heading further along the Road of Reconsideration, one would reach Muenzuka, where the road ends.

Although it's a small area enclosed by trees, this is the most dangerous place for both the humans and youkai of Gensokyo.

Although this place is a graveyard for those without relatives, many of those were from the outside world, but became lost and ended up here, and the growing inclination towards the outside world has begun to gradually loosen the magic barrier.

Also, as it is something similar to a graveyard, and also easily connected to the Netherworld, it's a place where no one knows what might happen (*1).

However, there are lovely things called purple cherry blossoms trees. Although their numbers are small, nothing else in Gensokyo can match their simple beauty.

When the flowers of these cherry blossoms fall, the deceased of Muenzuka will be released from their hestitation, and will finally progress to the Road of Liminality.

The purple cherry blossoms purify the soil of Muenzuka, and once per year this severing of doubts and fears causes the flowers to blossom, and even for Gensokyo, this is a quite a peculiar youkai cherry tree.

Those flower petals that drop by ones and twos create a sight reminiscent of something like Muenzuka itself weeping, an illusion that will beguile any viewer.

This might be the most perfect place for flower viewing, or so one might think, but the sorrowful sights create such sadness that there is no one who is able to make merry while watching them.

1: Originally, being able to cross the magic barrier was impossible, but the current situation is exactly what has come to pass. For this reason, maintaining one's presence here has become difficult.
