I have something personal to discuss with you today. [k] @Mash This morning, the Doctor came to me like any other day. [k] @Mash His voice, his breath, his mannerisms.[sr]He was the same calm, peaceful man he always was. [k] [charaFace A 5] @Romani Archaman As your primary physician, I need to have a serious discussion with you. I'm going to grit my teeth and tell you the truth here. [k] @Romani Archaman Mash Kyrielight, your lifespan is nearing its limit. [k] @Romani Archaman Just like humanity has no future past 2019, you have no future beyond that time. [k] @Romani Archaman This was decided at the beginning.[sr]You can't stop it, I can't stop it. No one can stop it. [k] @Romani Archaman Even the Grail, the supposedly omnipotent wish granter, cannot change this fate. [k] [charaFace A 10] @Romani Archaman After all, the Grail is merely a shadow that fell just one step lower from a higher dimensional phase. A great crystallized magical resource. [k] @Romani Archaman Calling it an omnipotent wish granter is like saying you can buy anything with money. [k] @Romani Archaman The truth is, the Grail can only execute what a human envisions. It is not omnipotent. Don't be mistaken about that. [k] @Mash I silently agreed. The Grail is only a means of accelerating things. [k] @Mash Raising buildings. Building cities. Making epochs. [k] @Mash For everything humans have done, the Grail uses its vast stores of magical energy to make the process quicker. [k] @Mash Why was the Doctor telling me something that I already knew? [k] [charaFace A 5] @Romani Archaman You're going to die soon. It has nothing to do with your own will. It's simply how you were created. [k] @Romani Archaman Do you find that frustrating? Or sad?[sr]Does it make you feel empty? [k] @Mash Well, I[line 3] [k] [charaFace A 10] @Romani Archaman It's terrible. I'm not talking about Chaldea's research.[sr]I'm talking about all of humanity, and all of life. [k] @Romani Archaman Living things are destined to die from the moment they're born. And yet, they possess the capacity to grow. [k] @Romani Archaman If something's going to die, why bother growing? Both the physical body and the spirit should maintain the same state from birth till death. [k] @Romani Archaman If they did, there would be no sadness or pain. Everything would be equal. Everything would have meaning from the beginning. [k] [charaFace A 7] @Romani Archaman But this planet's life is nothing but waste.[sr]It's essentially growing just so that it can die. [k] @Romani Archaman It's meaningless. Truly meaningless. The more time passes, the more life leaves this world unfulfilled. [k] @Romani Archaman I can't help but think that, when it comes to the life-forms on this world, the planet simply has the wrong settings. [k] [charaFace A 6] @Romani Archaman Don't you think so, Mash?[sr]You are half-manmade. [k] @Romani Archaman You are an incomplete being, a product made by imperfect humans who tried to play God. [k] @Romani Archaman You have the right to hate them, and the duty to reject them. Human history has no value. [k] @Romani Archaman All this is no more than the remnants left behind by humans leading meaningless lives. [k] @Romani Archaman It just so happens to look like a picture that has meaning. [k] @Mash ...What was strange was how gentle his words were. [k] @Mash Everything he said was impossible for me to accept.[sr]I couldn't agree at all. [k] @Mash But his voice was so gentle.[sr]His words were filled with wisdom and compassion. [k] @Mash “If it's causing you pain, you can stop.” He whispered into my ear with a voice both sweet and dangerous. [k] @Mash But...

[k] [charaFace C 5] @Dr. Roman According to Chaldea's clocks, there's not much of 2018 left. The lost year of 2019 is almost upon us.

A tough spirit is one thing, but teamwork is important too. [k] [charaFace C 5] @Dr. Roman All right. [%1], Mash, let's try this again. [k] @Dr. Roman At seven o'clock this morning, Chaldea completed its preparations for the seventh Singularity Rayshift. [k] @Dr. Roman We've little time left.[sr]Our backs are against the wall here. [k] @Dr. Roman The last Singularity... This is the Grail that Solomon sent into the past himself, and I'd like you to recover it. [k] @Dr. Roman I know I sound like a broken record, but are you ready? It's going to be another tough journey. [k] ?1:Leave it to us. We'll do our best. ?2:Of course. We'll bring back souvenirs. ?!

That's the kind of person you are, [%1]. I was silly to even ask. [k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_2 0.4] [charaFace C 5] @Dr. Roman Then let's start the briefing. [bgm BGM_EVENT_5 0.1]This time, we will Rayshift to the beginning of human history[line 2] [k] @Dr. Roman The beginning of all civilization, the world when it was unified as one. [k] @Dr. Roman The mother that flourished along the Tigris and Euphrates and influenced a great many civilizations. [k] @Dr. Roman One of the world's oldest civilizations, which began almost simultaneously with the earliest Egyptian kingdoms. [k] @Dr. Roman In the world of magecraft, this era was the twilight of the Age of Gods and a topic of research. [k] @Dr. Roman The land of ancient Mesopotamia, 2600 B.C. The beginning of Sumerian civilization after the Ubaid culture. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 0] [charaFadein D 0.1 0] [charaFace B 7] [charaFadein B 0.1 2] @Fou Fooou...

[k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_7 0.3] [wt 0.4] [bgm BGM_EVENT_2 0.1] [charaFace C 3] ?2:Good morning, Da Vinci. [effectStop bit_talk_41] [wt 0.3] [bgm BGM_EVENT_2 0.1] [charaFace E 4] @Da Vinci Humph.

[k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 3] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash I wouldn't say that. You surprised me. To think one person has the power to silence the entire room in an instant. [k] @Mash Um... The way you put so much effort into such trivial matters... I wish Senpai could be like that sometimes.

[k] [charaScale E 1.0] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Da Vinci Remember the mask I made to protect you in the desert? Say hello to Mark II! [k] [charaFace E 5] @Da Vinci The mana density in the atmosphere is much greater than what you experienced in ancient Egypt. [k] @Da Vinci There's a limit to what you can take with you on a Rayshift. This is [charaFace E 0]the bare minimum, but I promise you it's effective. [k] ?1:...I see. Thank you. [charaFace E 1] @Da Vinci Oh, by the way, I'll be in the Command Room this time as well. Don't worry about proving your existence in that era. [k] ?2:Is it my birthday today? [charaFace E 1] @Da Vinci Don't be silly. I'd get you something much fancier than this for your birthday. [k] @Da Vinci However, that's an excellent response. Wit and humor can be powerful weapons for humans. [k] ?! [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_2 1.0] [charaFace E 0] @Da Vinci All right. I suppose I shall give you a small lecture on the place you're about to visit. [k] [bgm BGM_EVENT_5 0.1] @Da Vinci The word “Mesopotamia” is Greek in origin.[sr]“Meso” means middle, and “potamia” means river. [k] @Da Vinci It refers to the civilization that flourished between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers that flowed into the Persian Gulf. [k] @Da Vinci The Order name is Babylonia, but it wasn't called that until a little later. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 0] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Mash Ancient Mesopotamia... Sumer... [k] [charaFace B 7] @Mash What's classified as ancient civilization does seem to span over a long period of time. [k] @Mash For instance, between 5000 B.C. and 2000 B.C., many different civilizations flourished and they all played important roles in human history. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Da Vinci Indeed. This time we're sending you to one of those civilizations in 2600 B.C., the age of the first kings. [k] @Da Vinci From the point of view of magecraft, it's the era when humans parted ways with the gods. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 5] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Dr. Roman That's right. I don't know the reason the king of this era made that decision... [k] @Dr. Roman ...but it was at this point that the Age of Gods came to an end, and by the advent of the Anno Domini era, all Divine Spirits had disappeared from the Earth. [k] @Dr. Roman Some may have lasted into the A.D. era in some island countries, but by 1000 A.D. they were gone. [k] @Dr. Roman Except for extreme cases, like deities that remained completely isolated from humans. [k] [charaFace C 3] @Dr. Roman Well, let's put that topic aside. What I really wanted to talk to you about was the difficulty of this Rayshift. [k] [charaFace C 5] @Dr. Roman Rayshifting into the B.C. era is extremely difficult. [k] @Dr. Roman The further back into human history you go, the more unstable the Rayshift. So, as you get closer to the Age of Gods, things get more uncertain. [k] @Dr. Roman Some academics call the Age of Gods an age of uncertainty. It's not something that lends itself to observation. [k] @Dr. Roman On top of that, Sheba is refusing to stabilize.[sr]Actually, I doubt it ever will. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 0] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Fou Foufou. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Da Vinci Yeah. But with the help of the staff at Chaldea, we were able to calculate the location of the Seventh Singularity and observe it. [k] [charaFace E 5] @Da Vinci Given the difficulty, I'll be staying here in the Command Room. Which also means I won't be able to act as navigator, but still... [k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_5 0.7] [charaFace E 0] @Da Vinci On my honor as a genius, I hereby swear that I will flawlessly prove your existence. [k] [bgm BGM_EVENT_2 0.1] [charaFace E 1] @Da Vinci Soooooo, don't worry about a thing![sr]Get out there and go have a grand adventure! [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Dr. Roman Leonardo's statements are inappropriate, but this really is an experience not many can have. [k] @Dr. Roman You're going to the ancient world, a place that modern man will never know about. [k] @Dr. Roman The danger is immeasurable, but I hope that's also how amazing your discoveries will be. [k] ?1:Today, on The History Channel Presents... ?2:We'll do it for you too, Doctor. ?! [charaFace C 0] @Dr. Roman Yeah. Once we put an end to everything, tell me what you've learned on this journey. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 0] [charaFace E 5] [charaFadein E 0.1 2] @Da Vinci Hey there. Don't get so sentimental. [k] [charaFace E 0] @Da Vinci [%1] is about to go to battle.[sr]You need to keep them sharp. [k] [charaFace E 4] @Da Vinci Sheesh... Romani, go and get some sleep.[sr]Trying to act tough just proves you're tired. [k] [charaFace C 3] @Dr. Roman I beg your pardon. I got plenty of rest.[sr]I'm all fired up and ready to go! [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Dr. Roman Come. Your Coffins are ready. From here on, this will be your battle, [%1]. [k] [charaFace C 5] @Dr. Roman The Sixth Singularity was full of special conditions we never came across before. This one's going to be every bit as tough. [k] @Dr. Roman It's a unique era, after all.[sr]Stay calm, and be ready to deal with anything. [k] @Dr. Roman A tense heart will shatter from a blow.[sr]Being flexible and adaptable will get you further. [k] ?1:Right. See you soon, Doctor! ?2:I've got a good example right in front of me. ?!

This is kind of a philosophical question... but do humans... rather, does life have any meaning at all? [k] @Mash I mean objectively, not subjectively. I've never thought about it, but it's really bothering me. [k] [charaFace C 3] @Dr. Roman Hmm... That's a tough question. [k] @Dr. Roman Objective meaning, huh? I mean, if you look at things from a god's perspective, life might all seem equally meaningless. [k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_5 0.7] [charaFace B 4] @Mash ... [k] [bgm BGM_EVENT_11 0.1] [charaFace C 0] @Dr. Roman Well... Really, life has neither meaning, nor merit, right up to the end. [k] [charaFace B 6] @Mash The end? [k] [charaFace C 0] @Dr. Roman Yeah. If you're asking about the meaning of it all, well, there isn't any. [k] @Dr. Roman Nothing has meaning on its own.[sr]Meaning is something that gets determined later.
