[k] @Musashi ...I think it's a good time to tell you what I've[sr]been up to since we last saw each other in Russia.

[k] @Musashi I was able to meet up with you guys in[sr]Russia because of my, um, unique constitution. [k] @Musashi See, I was able to wander into neighboring worlds in life. I've always thought of it as Lady Kannon's guidance, though recently, I learned it's actually called drifting. [k] @Musashi So I think what happened was that I ended up[sr]drifting right before the world was wiped clean. [k] @Musashi When I drifted back a moment later, there was nothing[sr]left but bleached-white ground everywhere I looked. [k] @Musashi At the time, I thought I'd ended up on some[sr]blank slate parallel world somewhere... [k] @Musashi ...but after wandering around for a while, I drifted right into the snowy fields of the Russian Lostbelt. [k] @Musashi You with me so far? [k] [messageOff] [fadeout black 1.0] [wait fade] [pictureFrame] [scene 92100] [charaPut S 1200,1200] [wt 1.0] [fadein black 1.0] [wait fade] ?1:Yeah, that makes sense. Well, except for one thing... ?2:I think so, but something doesn't quite add up. ?! [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Mash Right. Back at Chaldea, your drift was recorded[sr]as something similar in nature to a Rayshift. [k] @Mash So my understanding was that you could only drift[sr]to different time periods in parallel worlds. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 4] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Musashi Yup. As a rule, my drifts always put me in different[sr]worlds, never in the same one I drifted from. [k] @Musashi Before, if I wanted to drift back to[sr]the same world as all of you guys... [k] @Musashi ...I'd basically have to keep drifting between different worlds and hope I'd eventually get lucky. [k] @Musashi But...

[k] @Musashi I tried a few more drifts after that,[sr]and they all turned out the same way. [k] @Musashi While I didn't always end up in the same location,[sr]I did always end up in the same world and time period. [k] @Musashi A bit surprising at first, but I realized I'd basically gained a superpower: the ability to teleport across long distances. [k] @Musashi From there, I spent my days wandering around, fighting off weird creatures, and testing how much I could control my new ability. [k] @Musashi Then, one day... [k] [messageOff] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 0] [charaFadein D 0.4 0,-50] [wt 0.4] @Robed Figure ...Watch yourself, woman. [k] @Robed Figure Colliding with another teleporter is unheard of,[sr]even in the magecraft world. [k] @Musashi I ran into this guy who was kind of arrogant but basically all right, and we ended up traveling together for a while. [k] @Musashi He turned out to know a ton about all kinds of things! Like, he knew what kind of divine power my drift uses... [k] @Musashi And what happened to you guys after Russia...[sr]I'm not sure there was anything he DIDN'T know! [k] @Musashi Anyway, he pretty much caught[sr]me up on the whole situation... [k] @Musashi ...so I decided to sneak into the Atlantic Lostbelt[sr]ahead of you guys and wait for you. [k] @Musashi Oh, I even managed to drift into Olympus easy-peasy![sr]They never even knew I was here! [k] @Musashi Unfortunately, my drift only works on me, so I couldn't bring Robed Guy or any other Heroic Spirits along.

[bgm BGM_EVENT_70 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 7] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Musashi Yup!

[k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Mash So, in exchange for no longer being able to Rayshift[sr]to different time periods in parallel worlds... [k] @Mash ...you're now essentially able to freely[sr]teleport, at least to a certain extent? [k] @Mash It's very impressive that you've been able to make your way into Lostbelts without embarking on a Zero Sail. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Musashi Yup. I'm not really sure how it works[sr]myself, but that all sounds right. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Mash So in summary, your drift ability involved jumping into the rift between worlds, then emerging into another world. [k] @Mash I think it's safe to assume that[sr]it still works that same way... [k] @Mash ...since that would explain how you were able to get past the Lostbelts' storm walls. [k] @Mash The idea is that you're jumping into a higher dimension,[sr]then falling back down to a lower one. [k] @Mash The only difference is that before, you could fall[sr]down to any number of possible destinations... [k] @Mash ...but now, you're only falling back to this world,[sr]which is why you always emerge somewhere here. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Musashi ... [k] [charaFace C 8] @Musashi Yeah, exactly. Hehe.

[k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 8] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Musashi Nnn... Sorry, but I can't answer that.[sr]He made me promise not to.

[k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 4] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Mash I...see...

[k] @Mash We may not know who he is,[sr]but we do know he sent you here to help us!
