Welcome, visitors, to the Spiritron Virtual World: Serial Phantasm.
[k]
@Announcement
Known as SE.RA.PH for short, this reborn pure land of pleasure is modeled after the digital world.
[k]
@Announcement
128 Masters and Servants have come here in order to prevent the real world from being destroyed.
[k]
@Announcement
While we have nothing but praise for this noble purpose...
[k]
@Announcement
Human desires are insatiable, and our audience won't be satisfied with nobility alone.
[k]
@Announcement
Thus, one more condition for victory has been added to SE.RA.PH:
[k]
@Announcement
Kill all 127 other Masters.[sr]Be the last one standing.
[k]
@Announcement
Once you are, you will be granted the Mooncell, a source of unfathomable power.
[k]
@Announcement
But please do be careful.[sr]SE.RA.PH has no exit.
[k]
@Announcement
And doing nothing is not an option.
[k]
@Announcement
Whether you fight, or kill one another...you have no choice but to put your survival first.

@BB
Heh heh heh.[sr]Heh heh heh heh...!
[k]
@BB
There you are, Senpai! Welcome to the For-Adults-Only trap! There's no going back now!
[k]
[charaFace A 1]
@BB
No wonder you conquered the Temple of Time![sr]I have to admit that you've got courage!
[k]
[charaFace A 6]
@BB
Of course, that's pretty much the only thing you've got going for you, so I don't expect you to stand out in any other way.
[k]
?1:What's going on here, BB!?
?2:Hey! What was that about 1GB!?
[charaFace A 10]
@BB
Wait, that's what's bothering you?[sr]You're a lot pettier than your data indicated.
[k]
[charaFace A 0]
@BB
But the fact remains that you just don't have much going on [&down there:up here], so you'll have to deal with it!
[k]
@BB
Sorry! But hey, don't worry: it's not about the size, it's the shape that matters.
[k]
?!
[charaFace A 6]
@BB
...Let's see. You're completely cut off from Chaldea, and you don't possess the skills of a wizard.
[k]
@BB
Since you're so hopeless, I guess the helpful game master[line 2]that's me[line 2]will just have to do the work of explaining the rules to you.
[k]
@BB
At the moment, there are a bunch of Servants butting heads with each other here in SE.RA.PH.
[k]
[charaFace A 0]
@BB
And why not? This Holy Grail War is nothing but a battle to the death between all 128 of them![se ade76]
[k]
@BB
And just like you, Senpai, they all came here like lambs to the slaughter.
[k]
@BB
Maaaybe because I fooled them into thinking there was a teensy-weensy world-ending threat to contend with.
[k]
@BB
Little did they know that this was really nothing more than a way for me to kill some time![se ade76]
[k]
?1:A 128-Servant battle to the death...
[charaFace A 6]
@BB
That's right. It's a tacky little game I whipped up based on the Moon Holy Grail War.
[k]
[charaFace A 0]
@BB
Of course, the Mooncell had a whole tournament thing going on, while this is just a straight-up down-and-dirty battle royale.
[k]
?2:Then you're the one behind all this!
[charaFace A 5]
@BB
Well duh! Who do you think I am, anyway?
[k]
@BB
I'm BB! The original fallen heroine, the “Oops, did I do that?” kouhai who ends up destroying the world!
[k]
@BB
This time, to put it modestly, I actually went out of my way to make sure you all suffer!
[k]
?!
[charaFace A 4]
@BB
Anyway... You really don't have anything going for you, do you, Senpai? Without any Servants around, it's almost sad how weak you are.
[k]
[charaFace A 9]
@BB
So since even I can't help but feel a little sorry for you, I'll help you out just a little more.
[k]
[charaFace A 6]
@BB
Yes, this is Seraphix.
[k]
@BB
Think of it as a zone made entirely out of light, where everything has been digitized into Pseudo-Spiritrons.
[k]
@BB
As long as intellectual activity is taking place here, an information life-form like myself and an organic life-form like you can interact in the same space-time.
[k]
@BB
Furthermore, knowledge, experience, and power sources you attain here will be carried over when you return to the physical world.
[k]
@BB
So any battle you engage in here on SE.RA.PH has the same significance that it would in real life, and things that happen here can and do affect reality.
[k]
[charaFace A 9]
@BB
What's that? How did this happen?[sr]You mean, why did Seraphix end up digitized?
[k]
[charaFace A 0]
@BB
You'll have to figure that out for yourself, Senpai.[sr]It wouldn't be fair to the others if I told you.
It's sad how you were about to be killed with no means of defending yourself, and it's sad how you preyed on a helpless beginner.
[k]
@???
This may be a barbaric slaughterfest, but it is precisely times like this when one must conduct oneself elegantly. Otherwise, you'll lose your audience.
[k]
@???
The victor who triumphs over every obstacle must act with all due decorum.
[k]
@???
But what decorum is there to be found in killing a Master who has yet to even properly take the stage?
[k]
@???
Isn't that right, Suzuka? You don't deserve such fine brocade if this is how you choose to act.

@???
...Oh, this is lovely. Just seeing you all flustered like this is enough to put a spring in my step.
[k]
@???
Very well then, since we aren't complete strangers,[sr]I suppose I can answer your question.
[k]
@???
Why did I help this human?[sr]Why am I here in the first place?
[k]
[charaFace C 1]
@???
Do you even need to ask? I'm a prima ballerina who follows her heart wherever it takes her. I never forget when someone has humiliated me.
[k]
@???
So I have quite literally flown back up from the bowels of the earth for a chance to fight you all once more.
[k]
?1:You...
?2:(Why does she have the same face as BB!?)
?!
[charaFace C 0]
@???
...
[k]
[charaFace C 1]
@???
Hmm. I really only helped you on a whim, but I see you don't have any Servants, do you?
[k]
@???
That works out well. Very well, in fact. You see, I've been looking for a puppet[line 2]ahem, a Master[line 2]of my own.
[k]
@???
So I'll help rescue you from her, if you form a contract with me. And you really should.
[k]
@???
After all, it is either that, or die here.
[k]
@???
...Well? You don't have much time.[sr]Listen up, because I'm only going to say this once:
[k]
[charaFace C 1]
@Meltryllis
I'm Meltryllis, the Alter Ego of pleasure.[sr]I'll serve as your sword for as long as I feel like it.
[k]
@Meltryllis
Now tell me you're my Master like a good little slave, okay?

@Meltryllis
Then we have a contract. I can feel magical energy flowing into me, though it really isn't much. Being decisive is an admirable trait, [%1].
[k]
@Meltryllis
All right, I'll take it from here.
[k]
@Meltryllis
Suzuka's attacks have long range, so keep your distance to ensure you don't get caught in the crossfire. But don't go so far away that I can't see you.

[charaFace C 1]
@Meltryllis
When it comes right down to it, I don't trust humans.
