[charaFadein A 0.1 1]

＠Da Vinci
A natural biosphere...! This is more like a nature preserve than an observatory!
[k]

＠Da Vinci
And it's not like the rest of Mictlān, either! This place is straight out of Cenozoic-era Proper Human History!

＠Kukulcan
I'm not surprised. The Malla has no influence here.
[k]

＠Kukulcan
This is where the planet's sense of touch was dispatched from the inner sea...the place where the Elementals that exist in Proper Human History were born.
[k]

＠Kukulcan
So since the god filaments didn't create this part of Mictlān, it makes sense that it would be closer to the environments you're familiar with in Proper Human History.
[k]

？1：The planet's inner sea... As in, Avalon?

＠Da Vinci
Yup. If we think of a planet as a living being, the inner sea is a place for its heart that's guaranteed to exist.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
You know about Reality Marbles, right?
[k]

＠Da Vinci
They're essentially a mage's inner world made manifest[line 2]a powerful spell that lays their own mindscape over reality, even if only for a moment.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
Well, the planet's inner sea is like that, but for Earth. You can think of it as a Reality Marble the planet itself possesses.
[k]

[charaFace A 21]

＠Da Vinci
That being said, Earth is a big place, and even human hearts contain multitudes.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
For example, the part of its heart that remains close to human society, or the part that has a few bones to pick with it.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
Avalon is just one of several possible sides of that heart[line 2]one that prefers nature and eschews connections to human society.

[charaFadein C 0.1 1]

＠Mash
So Elementals born in worlds like that are essentially clones of the planet itself, right?
[k]

＠Mash
Kukulcan, a moment ago you mentioned the planet's sense of touch.
[k]

＠Mash
These...feelers are born in the planet's inner sea, make their way to Earth's surface, and ultimately return to the inner sea.
[k]

＠Mash
But if, for whatever reason, they are unwilling or unable to return...
[k]

＠Mash
...they become fairies, Elementals, and Divine Spirits on the planet's surface.
[k]

[charaFadeout C 0.1]

[charaTalk A]
[charaFace A 0]
[charaFadein A 0.1 1]

＠Da Vinci
Yeah. Though of course, some fairies, Elementals, and Divine Spirits manifest in other ways, so we can't say that's how they all came to exist.
[k]

[charaFace A 17]

＠Da Vinci
Meanwhile, there are some Elementals who could only have been born in the planet's inner sea.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
These special spirits are known to be the planet's brain. Since they have hearts, why not brains too?
[k]

＠Da Vinci
Anyway, these Elementals are born from Earth's earliest memories, which they then inherit themselves. They continually dream about the things taking place on the planet's surface.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
In the magecraft world, these beings are known as “Archetypes,” and the one up ahead is an incredible recorder of history.

...So this being knows the history of life on this planet, long before the first humans were ever born...
[k]

＠Nitocris
But, I've also heard that Archetypes take on the form of the dominant species from that age.
[k]

＠Nitocris
This may be a Lostbelt, but we mustn't forget, a Lostbelt is a hypothetical alternative to Proper Human History.
[k]

＠Nitocris
In which case, might this Archetype also be humanoid, like us?

＠Tepeu
I've never heard of an Archetype before, though. That must be another bit of knowledge the Crypter brought over.

“The Malla watch over us. They keep their opinions entirely to themselves.” I'm surprised that Kukulcan, the teachings of the sun herself, would be bound to a rule like that.
[k]

[charaFace E 0]

＠Tepeu
Oh well. I couldn't fail to note that Xquic isn't like other deinos.
[k]

＠Tepeu
Though I also suspect that a Mictlān Archetype is different from one in Proper Human History.
[k]

＠Tepeu
Mictlān itself is already much like the planet's inner sea.
[k]

＠Tepeu
It's closed off from both the surface and outer space, unaffected by change.
[k]

＠Tepeu
For the Archetype born here, it must feel positively suffocating, since she'll never get to see outside it.

Oh, and a word of warning: under no circumstances should you adopt a combat stance, no matter how surprised you may be.
[k]

＠Tepeu
This Archetype is both highly sensitive and easily hurt. If we scare her off, she'll be useless for at least a few days.

Hello, Xquic. I've brought some guests from Proper Human History here to see you.
[k]

＠Tepeu
They have some questions they'd like to ask. Could you please come out now? Please, try to get past your shyness.
[k]

＠Tepeu
They'll find you quickly enough anyway. You're not hidden nearly as well as you think.

There's a Proper Human History saying that goes “when you cover your head, don't leave your bottom exposed.” Well, we can see your bottom[line 2]that is, your tail, quite clearly.

I could also foresee that Daybit would use the knowledge he gained from me to form the ocelomeh and begin hunting deinos.
[k]

＠Xquic
That's very sad, of course...but it was still no reason to refuse him.
[k]

＠Xquic
Everyone has different worldviews, principles, and values. No two people think exactly the same way...

＠Xquic
...and reaching true mutual understanding almost never happens. That's why everyone must be treated equally.

We don't discriminate, either positively or negatively, toward anyone, regardless of how strong or weak they might be.

[bgm BGM_EVENT_141 0.1 0.8]

＠Da Vinci
You said Daybit asked you to tell him the truth about Mictlān and its history, right?
[k]

＠Da Vinci
Our understanding is, this Lostbelt began when dinosaurs became the dominant species... No wait, that's not right.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
It began with the fifth of the big five[line 2]the meteorite collision that wiped out nearly all life on Earth's surface.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
Afterwards, the filament-like alien life-forms that came here on the meteorite restored the land after everything had burned down...
[k]

＠Da Vinci
...then they chose the dinosaurs to serve as their hosts, and used them to create Mictlān.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
That's our current working theory, anyway. Are we on the right track?

＠Xquic
Whoa. You're too precious, Da Vinci! I'm amazed you've been thinking about things that happened in the time long, long, long before!
[k]

[charaFace F 6]

＠Xquic
Anyway, yes. That's all correct! Well, some of the finer details differ a little.
[k]

＠Xquic
In Proper Human History, the filaments came to Earth on the meteorite that crashed into the Yucatán Peninsula sixty-six million years ago, at the end of the Cretaceous period.
[k]

＠Xquic
But in this Lostbelt, that meteorite crashed here with them about three hundred million years ago, at the end of the Carboniferous period.
[k]

＠Xquic
The filaments that came here from outer space and ended up stranded here are called “Malla” in our native tongue.
[k]

＠Xquic
When they first landed, they used a network of plant roots to stabilize the supercontinent of Pangaea and keep it from breaking apart into smaller continents.
[k]

＠Xquic
So this Lostbelt actually started three hundred million years ago, back when Pangaea still existed.
[k]

[charaTalk A]

＠Da Vinci
Th-three hundred million years ago!? Before even the third of the big five took place!?
[k]

[charaFace A 12]

＠Da Vinci
Oh, wait. So THAT'S why [%1] was talking about the Carboniferous period before!
[k]

[charaFace A 26]

＠Da Vinci
Okay, that makes a lot start to add up.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
In Proper Human History, ninety-five percent of Paleozoic-era aquatic life went extinct during the transition from the Permian period to the Triassic period.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
That was when dinosaurs stepped in as the dominant life-form, since they were better suited for that environment.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
After that, Pangaea split apart into the Laurasia continent to the north and the Gondwana continent to the south, which scattered the dinosaurs all across the world.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
But, if Pangaea hadn't fractured, then the dinosaurs' paradise would have had much greater opportunity to flourish.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
And as long as the dinosaurs remained at the top of the food chain, there would be no chance for mammals to evolve into intelligent life.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
So that was how Mictlān began...
[k]

＠Da Vinci
How the Malla's early arrival changed this world so dramatically!

＠Xquic
I don't know about the fourth and fifth extinction events from Proper Human History, but Mictlān did have a fourth one.
[k]

＠Xquic
It was sixty-six million years ago, at the end of the Cretaceous period. The same time as the fifth extinction event in Proper Human History, the Yucatán Peninsula meteorite.
[k]

＠Xquic
Once again, a meteorite collided with this planet, burning away everything on the surface and threatening the dinosaurs with extinction.
[k]

＠Xquic
That's when the Malla came to the rescue.
[k]

＠Xquic
The Malla foresaw the meteorite's impact and built a shelter deep underground.
[k]

＠Xquic
They then collected all the energy on the surface of the earth and redirected it to create a subterranean paradise.
[k]

＠Xquic
All the heat and energy that would have otherwise gone into restoring the surface over the next million years went into creating Biosphere 3.
[k]

＠Xquic
The result is the Mictlān we have today.
[k]

＠Xquic
Since then and for the last sixty-six million years, Mictlān has been a world for the deinos.

[charaFadein A 0.1 1]

＠Da Vinci
I see... So that's why the surface was still postapocalyptic.
[k]

[charaFace A 8]

＠Da Vinci
The seas were dried up, volcanic activity was out of control, and the skies were covered by dense thunderclouds.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
And it's all because the energy that would have normally gone into letting nature take its course went into Mictlān instead.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
So here, over the course of almost a hundred million years, the Malla gained control over Earth's surface...
[k]

＠Da Vinci
...but that would never have happened in Proper Human History.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
In Proper Human History, the meteorite that carried the Malla was the one responsible for the fifth extinction event that happened sixty-six million years ago.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
That meteorite wiped out the dinosaurs and caused more huge changes in Earth's ecosystems.
[k]

＠Da Vinci
That led to mammals taking over, and over the next forty-million years, humankind's ancestors were born.

＠Xquic
Besides, if we're talking about invaders, there's one that label fits much better.
[k]

＠Xquic
In fact, that invader was the impetus behind Mictlān's creation.
[k]

＠Xquic
In Proper Human History, the Malla were responsible for the Earth's fifth major extinction event, and created the Yucatán Peninsula's mythological world...
[k]

＠Xquic
...but in our Lostbelt, something else was responsible for our third major extinction event: a meteorite that burrowed its way deep below Mictlān.
[k]

＠Xquic
Like the Malla, it was an invader which arrived sixty-six million years earlier than it should have, owing to slight a deviation in its course.
[k]

＠Xquic
A planet-eating monster that came here from the Oort cloud in the far reaches of the solar system...[bgmStop BGM_EVENT_141 1.5]

Sixty million years after ORT first fell to Mictlān and ceased to function...
[k]

＠Xquic
...it suddenly began to function again just when the deinos finally arrived at their ethical approach to dealing with life.
[k]

＠Xquic
This was our world's fourth major extinction event.

＠Xquic
It was also when Earth gave birth to me.

And so, all life in Mictlān banded together to defeat ORT. And they succeeded.

For a hundred thousand years, a human kingdom flourished in Mictlān too.

＠Xquic
They were much weaker than the deinos, but they had a great talent for engineering.
[k]

＠Xquic
Towards the end of the kingdom's life, they built a flying ship very similar to your Storm Border.
[k]

＠Xquic
That ship is the only reason Mictlān was able to fight back against ORT.

＠Xquic
Ka'an's soldiers accepted modifications to their bodies which made them invulnerable. They fought to the last warrior.

＠Xquic
It was their efforts that drove ORT down into the bottom stratum.

ORT sunk into a sea of magma, and Mictlān regained the light it had lost. But the cost of victory was the entire kingdom of Ka'an.

Oh no. One of them is still alive.

＠Xquic
The king of Ka'an who dealt ORT the finishing blow six million years ago after losing all of his people is alive today.
