Zusammenfassung

The stand-alone stories in Cage in Lunatic Runagate offer detailed background information to the events in Silent Sinner in Blue, offering the insights and perspectives of various major and minor characters, and of those who didn't appear at all.

Kapitel 1: Die Erinnerung der Weisen Dame

The first chapter serves as a prologue of sorts to Silent Sinner in Blue. Eirin Yagokoro reflects on the series of events that had led her, Kaguya Houraisan, and Reisen Udongein Inaba to flee to Earth, as well as proving a few details on the Hourai Elixir. The story ends as they decide to go to the Hakurei Shrine to see Rei'sen, who had apparently landed there.

Kapitel 2: Das Juwel der drei Jahrtausende

The second chapter is from Kaguya's point of view and offers her perspective on Eientei, as well as the current lives of Eirin and herself, as the events of Silent Sinner in Blue are unfolding.

Kapitel 3: Der Drachenpalast im Reinen Land

The third chapter is from Watatsuki no Toyohime's perspective. After reflecting on the baseless rumors of an upcoming Earth invasion, the sisters briefly discuss the events 1500 years ago involving Eirin and Kaguya's flight to Earth. It also reveals Eirin as the person behind the old Japanese fable involving the Dragon King's Palace, which is on the moon rather than underwater, and states that the main character of the fable was later deified.

Kapitel 4: Die Ewige Flamme

The fourth chapter is an account of Fujiwara no Mokou's past, prompted by a discussion with Keine Kamishirasawa and the Youkai Mountain, and details how she came into possession of the Hourai Elixir and became an immortal. Near the end she witnesses the launch of the Scarlet Devil Mansion's rocket.

Kapitel 5: Von der endlos tiefen Erde

The fifth chapter consists of a dialogue between Yukari Yakumo and her familiar Ran. They discuss the phases and motion of the moon, as well as the voyage of the Scarlet Devil Mansion's rocket and Yukari's own plans for a "counterattack".

Kapitel 6: Der Siegelbrief der Närrin

The sixth chapter returns to the Moon from the perspective of Rei'sen, who bears witness to the battle between Marisa Kirisame and Watatsuki no Yorihime. She reflects on the events that have brought her to this point.

Kapitel 7: Halb-Körper, Halb-Loyal

The seventh chapter is a retelling of Ran's visit to the Netherworld from Youmu Konpaku's point of view. It then turns to Youmu's efforts to spy on the Scarlet Devil Mansion's construction of the rocket. Finally, she and Yuyuko Saigyouji discuss their own plans to go to the moon.

Kapitel 8: Heimweh auf zwei Arten

The eighth and final chapter is essentially an epilogue to Touhou Bougetsushou. The various characters discuss their experiences while having a pool party in the basement of the Scarlet Devil Mansion and getting drunk.
