~The Border of Change~
Long ago, youkai terrorized Japan. Humans were in constant fear of being attacked by these inhuman creatures, and war constantly broke out between the two races. Despite the youkai's extraordinary power, the ingenuity and adaptability that human beings possessed made them serious threats. Blood was spilled on both sides. Tears were shed. Until at last, the mysterious youkai Yukari Yakumo decided that enough was enough, and using all of her strength, she created an alternate world where magic and mystery could reign.
The new world was named "Gensokyo."
A boundary, the Hakurei Barrier, was created to separate the two worlds so that they might never meet again. For nearly two thousand years, the Barrier has accomplished just that, allowing the Outside World to develop in peace. Buildings of wood and straw have been replaced by buildings of metal and glass that stretch into the sky, and the existence of youkai has long since faded into myth.
But now, the unthinkable has happened.
The Barrier has begun to unravel.
When Hatsune Miku unwittingly stumbles across a mysterious tear in space, she rediscovers the ancient land, and learns of the grave danger that has settled over the world. Can the barrier be saved? Or will humans and youkai meet again... and ultimately destroy each other?
