[k] ＠Holmes It is an institute of alchemists built in the Atlas Mountains of Egypt. [k] ＠Holmes It's also known as the Titan's Pit. [k] ＠Holmes It's one of three branches of the Mage's Association, dealing with accumulation and measurement. [k] ＠Holmes Their alchemy is not at all like alchemy as you may know it, the kind that became mainstream in the Middle Ages. They are the progenitors of Magecraft, focused on investigating the principles of the world. [k] [charaFace C 5] ＠Holmes While they are certainly mages, I understand that their Magical Circuits are rather paltry. [k] ＠Holmes Consequently, they do not rely on magical energy to learn the mysteries of the world, instead using a great number of tools. [k] [charaFace C 0] ＠Holmes In a way, these tools evolved similarly to scientific progress. [k] ＠Holmes They treated Pseudo Spiritrons...souls as energy that could be observed and manipulated. This led to homunculi, life-forms that possess magical circuits. [k] [charaFace C 5] ＠Holmes “We have no need to become the strongest.[sr]We simply have to create the strongest tool.” [k] ＠Holmes That was their motto.[sr]True to their words, they created many weapons. [k] ＠Holmes In the world of magecraft, they are called the Seven Taboos. The Atlas Institute created seven weapons capable of destroying the world. [k] ＠Holmes Realizing that they had reached their limits, they sealed them away. [k] [charaFace C 4] ＠Holmes ...There are still many theories about why they decided to build such weapons in the first place. [k] [charaFace C 0] ＠Holmes The director of the Atlas Institute was given the title Atlasia. [k] ＠Holmes I saw a wall plate on the way here.[sr]It said Zepia Eltnam Atlasia. [k] [charaFace C 5] ＠Holmes He was likely the last director. There seems to have been a successor designated, but the name wasn't recorded. [k] ＠Holmes The directors of this institute would always go mad, and as a result, they created forbidden weapons that would destroy the world. [k] ＠Holmes It's also possible that they would try to prevent the destruction of the world, fail in the process, and then go mad as a result... [k] ＠Holmes Regardless, this place is a storehouse of Mystic Codes unparalleled anywhere else on Earth. [k] [charaFace C 4] ＠Holmes Although in reality, it's more like a disposal site. [k] [charaFace C 0] ＠Holmes The alchemists of this institute would constantly invent things. These were treated as failed creations, and a mountain of terrible weapons accumulated. [k] ＠Holmes We're headed to the center of that. What do you think? Did you understand my summary of the Atlas Institute?

[k] ？！ [charaFace F 0] ＠Sion So you have been inside two of the Lostbelts now, and experienced their differences from Proper Human History for yourselves. [k] ＠Sion These Lostbelts are dead-end timelines that were pruned away by human history itself once they were deemed unworthy of being allowed to continue. [k] ＠Sion For example, the Russian Lostbelt diverged from Proper Human History in the year A.D. 1570. [k] ＠Sion And it seems that each Lostbelt to appear on Earth has continued from its point of historical divergence on to the present day. [k] ＠Sion However, just because a Lostbelt may have diverged from further back in the past does not necessarily mean it is stronger. [k] ＠Sion A Lostbelt's strength[line 2]or threat, really[line 2]is not so much a matter of its age, but of how much it differs from Proper Human History. [k] ＠Sion The Yaga may have been physically different from mankind, but their lifestyle and culture were still carried over from Proper Human History. [k] ＠Sion By contrast, the people in Scandinavia may have led peaceful lives, but their society was essentially being kept on life support. [k] ＠Sion So given what we know from those two, I decided to come up with a metric we could use to rank and compare the Lostbelts. [k] [charaFace F 5] ＠Sion I call it their Lostbelt Depth. [k] ＠Sion The greater the Lostbelt Depth, the more[sr]strongly it refutes Proper Human History. [k] ？1：Lostbelt Depth... ？2：...So what was the Lostbelt Depth for the two we've seen so far? ？！ [charaFace F 17] ＠Sion I went ahead and assigned preliminary Lostbelt Depth rankings for all seven of the Lostbelts.

I forgot about the Wandering Sea! We still have oceans too! Obviously! [k] ＠Goredolf Never mind that! Did you say the Atlantic!? [k] ＠Goredolf There can't possibly be a Lostbelt in the middle of the Atlantic! There's never been any inhabitants in the middle of the ocean in all of recorded history! [k] ＠Sion Well, there are now. In fact, that Atlantic[sr]Lostbelt is our ultimate objective. [k] ＠Sion That is the one spreading its Tree of Emptiness branches all throughout Earth's atmosphere...

[k] [charaFace C 0] ＠Holmes For one thing, we have no means of getting there, as the Border is simply incapable of making such a long sea voyage. [k] ＠Holmes But there is another, more immediate difficulty. [k] ＠Holmes If there truly is a civilization in the Atlantic, it will be much, much older than any of the four great civilizations. [k] ＠Holmes It will have existed since prehistoric days...a robust, stable world that will have had over twelve thousand years to develop.

We should be on our way to the Atlantic even as we speak! [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 0] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] ＠Sion I recommend that course of action as well. [k] ＠Sion Unlike Russia and Scandinavia, the storm walls bordering the Lostbelts in China and India are not expanding, so there should be no danger in leaving them be for a while. [k] ＠Sion As for the Lostbelts in Britain and South America... [k] [charaFace F 5] ＠Sion ...Trismegistus calculates an extremely high probability that they will both self-destruct if left to their own devices. [k] ＠Sion I have not been able to get a proper reading on the British Lostbelt's depth, but that is just another sign that it is a poor fit for this world. [k] ＠Sion I have been unable to confirm what is going on in there, but compared to Proper Human History and the Foundation of Humanity, it is pretty clear that humanity in there is on the verge of collapse. [k] ＠Sion So it is reasonable to assume that mankind in the British Lostbelt will go extinct within the span of months rather than years. [k] [charaFace F 11] ＠Sion Though I do wonder why the British Lostbelt is the only one surrounded by a wall of light rather than storms... [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 25] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] ＠Da Vinci We saw that on the Border too, and came to the conclusion that it'd be best for us to stay away from the British Isles.

While it appears to have a very high value to its Lostbelt Depth, I cannot seem to get any clear information. [k] ＠Sion So I can only conclude that its civilization is just about dead and gone. [k] [charaFace F 0] ＠Sion And that, in turn, means that even among all these bizarre histories, it is exceptional...
