...Yes, I am dreadfully ashamed, but before I knew it...well, I became as you see me now...

@Sessyoin Kiara
A pathetic woman whose body was stolen by Zepar.[sr]One who had no other option but to fade away.
[k]
@Sessyoin Kiara
Like everyone else on Seraphix, I was just another victim of SE.RA.PH... At least, I should have been.
[k]
[charaFace A 6]
@Sessyoin Kiara
It was at Zepar's whim that I became what I am...[sr]Became SE.RA.PH itself... Who'd have thought...
[k]
?1:SE.RA.PH itself...
?2:So SE.RA.PH appears human because...
?!
[charaFace A 4]
@Sessyoin Kiara
That's right. The Demon God Pillar's malice transformed Seraphix into my own body.
[k]
[charaFace A 7]
@Sessyoin Kiara
...It has been truly harrowing.
[k]
@Sessyoin Kiara
For what feels like eternity, I have been attacked, broken, and abandoned by countless Heroic Spirits.
[k]
[charaFace A 3]
@Sessyoin Kiara
It has gone beyond my wildest imaginings...a dream, a fantasy...
[k]
@Sessyoin Kiara
The only question that remains is this: what price must I pay to continue feeling this exquisite ecstasy?
[k]
?1:... (I don't feel right...)
?2:... (My head feels a little foggy...)

@Sessyoin Kiara
Ah... “Parallel worlds” is it? Yes... “Chronicle Theoretical Phenomenon” and the like? Complex concepts.
[k]
@Sessyoin Kiara
That is how I came to know about another version of me, one among the countless number to exist.
[k]
@Sessyoin Kiara
And in her world, distant in time and space, the moon itself was a Holy Grail called the Mooncell Automaton.
[k]
@Sessyoin Kiara
In a deep, dark space known as the Far Side of the Moon, that version of me was able to claim the Grail.
[k]
@Sessyoin Kiara
Among the innumerable versions of me in numberless universes, she was the most...unique. Zepar was very, very pleased with her. So much so that he linked us together.
[k]
@Sessyoin Kiara
I...I who did nothing but suffer as Seraphix fell into a frenzy...
[k]
@Sessyoin Kiara
...and into the other “me”, the one who acquired the Mooncell for herself.
[k]
@Sessyoin Kiara
As a result of this link, we became one and the same.

You see, although Zepar managed to convert Seraphix into SE.RA.PH, he lacked the means to run it.

...And so I had no choice but to rely on help from you and BB, who had hacked SE.RA.PH on the Far Side of the Moon.

Cool story, girl, but just one thing: where's Zepar now? You talked a lot about him before.

You say that SE.RA.PH and your body are one and the same. So like, how many Servants have you munched on so far?
