I'm too weak to fight myself,[sr]so my only option is to have them do so on my behalf. [k] @Avicebron Now, Master, we can talk more later.[sr]First, I'm going to make this cave into my workshop. [k] @Avicebron That should strengthen our ability to summon, which will in turn allow you to make use of your Spirit Origin graph. [k] @Avicebron That way, you may call upon the shadows of the Servants registered within that briefcase whenever you like. [k] @Avicebron You will, of course, only be able to do so in combat,[sr]as this power is sadly quite limited in its scope. [k] @Avicebron Now then...I think I shall rest[sr]until the workshop is complete.

[k] @Avicebron And...Patxi the Yaga, was it? [k] @Avicebron Allow me to introduce myself again.[sr]My True Name is Avicebron. [k] @Avicebron As you can see, I am a Caster.[sr]Just a humble maker of golems. [k] @Avicebron But, given the circumstances, it would nonetheless[sr]seem that I am just the Servant for the job. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut H 1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Holmes So, you weren't part of the Spirit Origin graph? [&Mr.:Ms.] [%1] has never met you before, eh? [k] @Holmes Then it must have been the land itself crying out for help that brought you here, rather than a bond with [&him:her]. [k] @Holmes It would seem that the existing Heroic Spirits[sr]cannot easily materialize in this world. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 14] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Da Vinci Nope. Just one more thing that sets[sr]this place apart from a Singularity. [k] @Da Vinci ...I guess this is what that magecraft[sr]theory was talking about... [k] [charaFace D 30] @Da Vinci But that can wait. For now, I'm just glad we have a new ally! And one who seems likely to be very helpful at that! [k] [charaFace D 0] @Da Vinci Avicebron, given your particular expertise, do you think you might be able to repair the Shadow Border's armor?

[k] @Avicebron I should be able to craft a suitable armor plate as long as we have quality ore imbued with magical energy. [k] @Avicebron Ordinarily, such ore is only traded among mages... [k] @Avicebron ...but I believe we should be able to find some here. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut H 1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 0] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Da Vinci Good answer. Just what I'd expect to hear from the forefather of all golems. Mind if I leave him in charge of fixing the Shadow Border's armor, Holmes? [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Holmes Not at all. That would certainly be a great help. [k] @Holmes Now then.[sr][&Mr.:Ms.] [%1], Ms. Kyrielight, Patxi. [k] @Holmes I believe we should decide on our next course of action. Assuming that's all right with you, Goredolf? [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 7] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Goredolf O-of course.[sr]I WILL have the final say, yes? [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 1] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Holmes Naturally. [k] [charaFace C 0] @Holmes Da Vinci, I would ask you to continue learning everything you can regarding the materials. [k] [charaFace C 5] @Holmes For the other matter we discussed, that is. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 24] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Da Vinci Okay, I'm on it.

In brief, I believe our next move[sr]should be to rendezvous with this rebel army. [k] @Holmes We now know that its leader is a Servant. [k] @Holmes Moreover, there is a strong chance they will elect to join us, given that they oppose Ivan the Terrible. [k] ?1:But, we don't know where the rebel army is... ?! [charaFace C 6] @Holmes I believe Patxi can be of assistance there. [k] [charaFace C 0] @Holmes You do know where they are, don't you? [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut H 1200,1200] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Patxi Not exactly...but I do know of a few villages[sr]that're rumored to have ties to them. [k] @Patxi Word has it they provide them with food, hide[sr]them from the Oprichniki... That sort of thing. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut H 1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Holmes Then that is where we will go.[sr]I trust that's all right with you, Director? [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Goredolf Hmm... A village where rebels gather? I don't much care for the notion, but then again, I won't have to be the one going there anyway. [k] @Goredolf Very well then, be off with you, [%1]. I await good news and a much overdue supply of food. [k] [charaFace E 10] @Goredolf The Shadow Border's reserves are nearly empty, and the state of one's belly has a direct effect on morale. [k] @Goredolf I'm sure you are well aware of this, but the Border's staff are mentally exhausted as well. [k] @Goredolf They have been battling hunger, the cold, and cabin fever for some time now. At least YOU'VE been able to walk around outside. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 12] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Da Vinci Oh, right, I almost forgot about that little problem.[sr]But, are we sure we can even eat Krichat' meat? [k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_76 0.3] [wt 0.5] [bgm BGM_EVENT_7 0.1] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 6] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Goredolf We had better be able to eat it! Forget the roast[sr]beef now. I'd be happy with a side of bacon! [k] @Goredolf The Musik family has been practicing alchemy for generations. Even if the meat DOES contain toxins, rest assured that I can make it edible! [k] @Goredolf I've been stranded and alone in snowy mountains countless times before, so I've invented my own spells to turn bad meat good! [k] @Goredolf I can even transform spoiled meat into sirloin![sr]Why else do you think I'm known as Musik the Phoenix!? [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 1] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Da Vinci Wow, what a useless[line 2]er, totally useful spell! It's definitely a narrow niche, but it's just the one we need right now! [k] [messageOff] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 2] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] [wt 0.5] ?1:Understood! [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Holmes Good. Once the Shadow Border is working again, we should be able to support you in a much more active capacity. [k] [branch select04_end] ?2:I'll do my best! [charaFace E 6] @Goredolf I don't want your best! I want results![sr]My future is resting on your shoulders, after all! [k] [branch select03] ?!
