Our desires languish, deferred. Even now, we dance in the palm of the queen’s hand.

As you know, it has been about three weeks since the shocking operation to eliminate Limbo.

In that time, Novum Chaldea has been tuning up the Storm Border and devising plans of attack for the remaining Sixth and Seventh Lostbelts.

That said, as I have told you all before, I saw no need to infiltrate Britain, the site of the Sixth Lostbelt...

As further proof, we have not observed any magical energy readings associated with the Trees of Emptiness coming from Britain since then.

It's all well and good that Britain will disappear. Indeed, it's only to be expected now that its Tree of Emptiness is effectively dead.

But if that disappearance is going to engulf the entire planet, then it is a matter we must investigate and ultimately resolve.

...There you have it. We're going to begin the operation as soon as possible, without any breaks.
[k]

＠Nemo
The Storm Border's a big ship, after all, so it can't just slip into Void Space like the Shadow Border.
[k]

＠Nemo
But what it can do is use its massive propulsive force and magical energy barriers...
[k]

[charaFace J 0]

＠Nemo
...to withstand the dimensional friction that separates different worlds. Basically, it's a giant drill.
[k]

＠Nemo
What we're going to do is fire the Storm Border through that wall of light like a bullet.
[k]

[charaFace J 5]

＠Nemo
The entry impact will be just as strong as it is for a Zero Sail, so make sure you're all in a calm state of mind.

No need to worry about us, Captain.[sr]This isn't our first rodeo.

Right you are. But nonetheless, we were indeed making plans to explore it well before now.

＠Holmes
While we only have a few bits and pieces of information to work with at the moment, we do know that Beryl Gut remains in the British Lostbelt...
[k]

＠Holmes
...and that its king was able to launch an attack on Olympus's Tree of Emptiness.
[k]

[charaFace C 6]

＠Holmes
What's more, this king was even able to burn the very Tree of Emptiness required to sustain their Lostbelt.
[k]

[charaFace C 0]

＠Holmes
While it's still unclear whether Beryl tricked them into doing so, or if they acted with informed consent...
[k]

[charaFace C 5]

...what matters is that they possess enough power to burn a Tree of Emptiness single-handedly. And then there's[line 2]

[k]

＠[51ffff]Da Vinci[-]
[51ffff]A Mystic that surpassed even Kirschtaria's ideal[-][sr][51ffff]magecraft. That was Rhongomyniad all right.[-]
[k]

＠[51ffff]Da Vinci[-]
[51ffff]It's a spell devised not by human hands,[-][sr][51ffff]but by the inner sea of the planet itself.[-]
[k]

＠[51ffff]Da Vinci[-]
[51ffff]It would be a powerful weapon against the Foreign[-][sr][51ffff]God, which means it's something we desperately need.[-]

Oh, that? It's basically a paradise of legend.

Every mythology's got some kind of promised eternal holy land, right?
[k]

＠Meunière
Utopia, the Garden of Eden, the Land of the Young Tír na nÓg, and so on? Well, Britain's is called Avalon.
[k]

＠Meunière
It's supposed to be an otherworldly paradise that can't be reached by ordinary means.
[k]

＠Meunière
It's also said to lie inside the planet, and that it's where the souls of stars go to sleep.
[k]

＠Meunière
Pretty much every Clock Tower mage has heard about it.
[k]

＠Meunière
I know I called it a legend, but that's not how the people who can actually see it think of it.
[k]

＠Meunière
There are some people out there who really might be able to get to the planet's inner sea. Hell, the Clock Tower's even got a department for exploring it.
[k]

[charaFace F 3]

＠Meunière
...That said, we're talking about a place that's completely outside human comprehension.

Really, how could anyone take them seriously after they proudly proclaimed they found Earth's belly button underneath the Clock Tower?

＠Holmes
Now that we know the king of the British Lostbelt controls Rhongomyniad, we need to investigate it and learn how it works.
[k]

＠Holmes
Indeed, the Rhongomyniad is the very reason why we were already making plans to explore the British Lostbelt.

While the circumstances have forced us to act sooner than we had hoped, we were always going to pay them a visit eventually.
