Late to the party but to anyone wondering what Dendera Fields are, there's a folklore that old people were brought to the Dendera Fields to die when their family thought they wouldn't be productive anymore, in Japan, Tono (Iwate Prefecture).

[@rebeccascarlet4305]

In 7th grade I was bored in Reading and Writing class so I read a story similar to this. It's about this guy and his mother, how he keeps her well hidden. BUT the Dendera Fields were not mentioned, instead a mountain was where they take the old to die.

[@afalla4215]

+Rebecca Scarlet I dont really get it.... where can I find it ?

[@rebeccascarlet4305]

I forgot the story name since it was awhile ago.

[@DetrimentalDerivation]

Always love playing this on an oppressively still and dark night in the country, where the only light around is that of your headlights, surrounded by walls of towering corn, or the stretches of vague, desolate fields which your lights only barely penetrate. It really imbues the land with that ambivalent quality of mystical awesomeness, countered by an uneasy despair, which chases by all things which we personally experience, but escape our full view. It is in these hole-in-the-walls of our world where the legends of youkai arise, and where, driving along that county road, _maybe what you saw was not really a deer at all_ . Such are the incidents, beyond the explanation of laymen and physicists, which fuel the studies of the Ghostly Field Club.

[@leontrotsky5747]

Still and dark nights in the country? You must then be just outside of a village or in the countryside. The headlights mean its next to a road or bisicle path. Corn? English language? Prob somewhere in the american midwest. Cant be cramped because of the desolate fields, also needs deer to be nearby, so that makes an area which not many people live in. Is it Minessota or so you are talking about?

Denderano - is a hut far from any houses where the elderly were brought to die in ages past, for they were seen by their children as no longer productive. The landscape where the huts were is called Dendera Field.

“Renko, where’s the barrier hole?”

[@MRazorK10]

And I read "Dying in the Daedra Fields in the Night"

[@JLippe]

Ah, Ghostly Field Club~ Back in late 2019 / early 2020 (if I'm not mistaken) I listened to Dolls in Pseudo Paradise for the first time and fell in love for its songs instantly. The day after I tried GFC and... I don't know why but listening to it right after DiPP left me kind of underwhelmed(???). Coming back to this album a year later... I heavily changed my mind, GFC has some amazing songs! It's really a shame it's not very popular...

[@Ducky5578]

***** It's some o' ZUN'S music cds (not including Dolls in Pseudo Paradise) Where it's music ZUN arranges, but there's a story line to go with it... Just a little booklet with each cd, the cds go along with the adventures of the humans from the outside world named Maribel Hearn and Renko Usami. Maribel starts having these strange dreams where she finds herself in this weird land (Gensokyo) Where it's much more than a dream, and she can feel everything and even take back things from the other world (Gensokyo) to the real world. And back to both Maribel and Renko, they are the only two members of their club to interpret these dreams and figure out exactly what is going on... Thus the storyline ensues... Wow, that was way longer than I'd expected >< They're pretty good though, if an

[@Gir558]

Plus, if I remember correctly they're the only two members of the club.

[@painovoimaton]

Rika Furude Yes, and they're most likely the only people in the outside world who know of Gensokyo's existence.

[@CrypticNazo]

painovoimaton Except for ZUN. I swear Yukari's probably selling him stories about Gensokyo's incidents and then slips the money in the Hakurei donation box.

[@KeepAnimeDegenerate]

painovoimaton And anyone who's played Touhou...

[@darkbeetlebot]

CrypticNazo I kind of hope that's happening.

[@FlandresOldWorld]

I always go by Touhou Wiki's translations, since I don't know any Japanese, and it says that the title of this song is "Wandering About a Ghostly Field in the Night". So that's what I'm going to leave it as.

[@SerabiiBot]

If anyone wants the previous title of this, it was "Wandering About a Ghostly Field at Night".

[@lisarinnamm]

I fell in love with this theme

[@Bowserian]

The weird thing is, the only thing I can find which carries the name Dendera is a settlement in Egypt, famous for its temple of Hathor. However, I doubt there's any field anywhere near there.

[@insertgenericallyironicnam601]

So horribly underrated. ;_;

Playing this in the dusk at a graveyard right now

[@aphreytheelite8287]

This instantly make me want to play horror games! Eek!

[@insomniatic991]

This sounds so cute^^ It gives the feeling of two girls wandering through a dark, mysterious place with a creepy vibe, They're scared but aslong as they have eachother they're fine and happy~ And press on to find the existance of ghosts and spirits~

[@supremekaiser2981]

This theme feels pretty mystical and fantastical, and very Touhou-ish v:

[@Kanonical]

The original sounds really weird to me after playing a lot of Touhou Lost Word. It feels really surreal for some reason.

[@ImtheClassRep]

The lost word arrangement is very dark and creepy sounding, always enjoy hearing it in the background of event story's

[@doremysheep7864]

I just noticed the gap behind them Holy fuck

[@rebeccascarlet4305]

That 1 dislike was from Remilia cus they stole her red moon in the background.

[@taodivinity1556]

The second dislike is from Yukari because of the gap behind Renko and Mary.

[@ultimadragon88]

I think 'Dendera' is short for 'Rododendera', a flower genus.

[@stardustreverie6880]

Gotta keep these comments coming~

[@kienphucnguyen2001]

When zun makes touhou horror games

[@danteshi]

yep, touhou need more horror side, although there's plenty touhou horror fan made game out there

Not actually, Dendera is a field's name in Tohno (Yes, The Fantastic Legend of Tohno)
