[k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 7] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Osakabehime Yes, I'm positive![sr]Believe me, I double-checked a dozen times! [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 3] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Nemo Professor It looks like this terrain is roughly circular, with about a three kilometer diameter... [k] @Nemo Professor And you're telling us it's not a reef, but a Servant's body? I find that more than a little hard to believe. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 5] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Nemo ...[%1], how does that compare to the largest enemies you've fought to date? [k] ?1:Uh... ?2:Good question... ?! [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 5] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Osakabehime It's actually spherical, not circular. It's kind of like a giant bowling ball floating in the middle of the Void Sea. [k] @Osakabehime The outside seems kind of like a spirit body's outer shell, complete with a powerful Spirit Core signal in the center. [k] @Osakabehime I think this is Professor Van Gogh's real body. And unfortunately, since it's a sphere, there's no quick or easy way for us to get to it. [k] [charaFace B 4] @Osakabehime And...I'm guessing here, but I don't think the outer shell is just a plain old wall. It feels really aggressive, and it's probably super dangerous... [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 4] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Nemo I never would have imagined Van Gogh would mutate into something so massive... [k] @Nemo Maybe it's a side effect of Clytie's Spirit Origin. Like she's blooming instead of taking her own life. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 4] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Osakabehime Um, I don't think so. I'm guessing this is still just a bud...which means we haven't reached the blooming stage yet... [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 5] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Scáthach-Skadi So it truly is the advent of an evil god... Then again, this could simply be these Outer Gods' plan B. [k] @Scáthach-Skadi Perhaps they decided that, in the event they were unable to use Van Gogh to deify enough Foreigners, they could make her into a powerful god in her own right. [k] @Scáthach-Skadi If that is indeed the case, it would make her both an undercover agent and a ticking time bomb. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 4] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Nemo Professor What should we do now, Captain? The ship's tougher than ever, but we never accounted for picking a fight with a glacier. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 0] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Nemo I'd like you all to come up with a plan that'll let us break through that shell with our existing firepower. Will you help us too, Goddess? [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Scáthach-Skadi Of course. However, there is still one thing we need. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 0] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Nemo What's that? [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 1] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Scáthach-Skadi Sometimes, when one is facing impossible-seeming odds, one must turn to a malefactor for help.

[messageShake 0.04 5 5 0.4]All I know's I was stuck in this cage when I came to, and now I can't even paint a damn picture! [k] @Katsushika Hokusai Whatever's going on, we Edoites don't make excuses for our deeds, even if we were drunk or in love at the time, so I ain't about to start now! Go ahead, do your worst!

[k] [charaFace E 11] @Katsushika Hokusai So I couldn't help but try and, ya know,[sr]sweep things under the rug... [k] [charaFace E 4] @Katsushika Hokusai ...I'm sorry, everyone... [k] ?1:Hmm... I guess it's okay. ?2:Don't worry. Nobody's actually mad at you. ?! [charaFace E 0] @Katsushika Hokusai Y-ya mean it? [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 0] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Nemo The fact is, no Servant is fully protected from someone or something tampering with their Spirit Origin. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 12] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] @Mash It's true. A lot of them have been made to play parts in all kinds of wicked schemes, and they weren't all Foreigners by any means. [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Scáthach-Skadi Indeed. So rest assured, there is no cause for you to be ashamed. We only kept you in here as a precaution, nothing more. [k] @Scáthach-Skadi However, we can keep you here no longer, as we need your help. We would like your opinion on something, given that you painted this vast ocean into existence. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 13] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Katsushika Hokusai ...H-haha. Well, in that case, yeah,[sr]'course I'll be glad ta help. [k] [charaFace E 6] @Katsushika Hokusai All right, what happens in the Void Sea stays in the Void Sea, so no more shame for me! I'll do whatever I can ta put things right! [k] [messageOff] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_77 1.0] [fadeout black 1.0] [wait fade] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [scene 99002] [wt 1.0] [fadein black 1.0] [wait fade] [bgm BGM_EVENT_62 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 5] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Katsushika Hokusai First off, just so we're clear, I can't paint anythin' into existence here now that I been cut off from the Outer God. [k] @Katsushika Hokusai But I do know this sea and this Go board better than anyone, and thanks to that, I can see a path to victory. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 5] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Nemo You can!? That's great! What do we have to do? [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 14] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Katsushika Hokusai We use the gaps between the board's spaces. [k] @Katsushika Hokusai You guys prob'ly already know this, but those gaps are each their own narrow cul-de-sacs. They're so narrow there's no way the Nautilus could get inside. [k] @Katsushika Hokusai They might be a little tough ta aim for, but once ya know the trick, they're useless as hidin' places. That's what you guys thought they were, right? [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Nemo Professor You mean they're not? [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 6] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Katsushika Hokusai Nope. They actually work just like a real Go board. Any place you surround? That becomes your territory. [k] @Katsushika Hokusai When you take over the smallest units of space, you cut off the moves your opponent can make with their Go stones and open up more for yourself. [k] [charaFace E 14] @Katsushika Hokusai So if you guys take over the gaps right at the big gal's corners and make the space she's in your territory... [k] @Katsushika Hokusai ...you'll be able to jump right[sr]into her center, no problem! [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 7] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Osakabehime Huh? So, put another way, if we occupy the four corners that make up the giant square area where Professor Van Gogh[line 2]I mean, the enemy is, we'll be able to just noclip right into her[line 2]uh, them? [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 1] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Katsushika Hokusai You got it! Pretty clever, right? [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 4] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Scáthach-Skadi There is one thing I still don't understand. Why did you make such an elaborate mechanism only to never use it in the fourth area? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 4] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Katsushika Hokusai ...'Cause right when I was plannin' to put down a bunch of Go stones and set a trap for you guys, you crushed the board with your Vajra thingy... [k] ?1:(Now I feel a little guilty.) ?! [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Nemo Professor If it's possible for us to warp directly inside the enemy's massive body, that'll save us a lot of time compared to cutting our way through. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 5] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Nemo Definitely. But to do that, we'll first need to seize control of these four Go Board Spaces, and with as few people as possible. [k] @Nemo Once we've done that, we'll cut down any obstacles we run into inside the enemy and rescue Van Gogh in the center. [k] @Nemo Afterwards, we'll fire Raikou's lightning attack into the heart of the enemy's body to destroy it from the inside! [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Scáthach-Skadi I see. Then our team formations all but decide themselves. [k] @Scáthach-Skadi Raikou will assume torpedo duties. Lambdaryllis will be our legs. And Fran will deliver the final blows and aid in any rescues. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk G] [charaFace G 0] [charaFadein G 0.1 1] @Lambda If I must. Since my penguins will have to be out there the whole time, I'll escort you all into the deep myself. [k] ?1:(She finally admitted they're penguins...) ?2:(I'll be nice and pretend I didn't just[csr]hear her call her familiars “penguins.”) ?! [charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Scáthach-Skadi [%1], since you will be unable to accompany them, we should have Fran carry a camera or something so you can see what is taking place. [k] @Scáthach-Skadi Now, let's see... We will not need to worry about sonar while seizing control of these four points, so Osakabe and Yang Guifei can take one point each. [k] [charaFace A 6] @Scáthach-Skadi However, that still leaves two other fighter positions. And since Mash must protect the ship, I suppose I will just have to fill one of them myself. [k] ?1:Huh? Really? ?2:Are you sure about this? ?! [charaFace A 4] @Scáthach-Skadi If all I need to do is seize a single point of territory, then I should be fine. However, I do not expect to be of any use in battle, so I will be counting on you to handle that,[sr][%1]. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 1] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Katsushika Hokusai All right, now that it looks like my work here's done, I'm just gonna head out back an' paint a fisherperson's banner or somethin' for good luck. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 5] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Scáthach-Skadi Nonsense. You will seize the last point. Do you not see the swimsuit I have ready for you?
