[k] @Goredolf Now, let's begin the briefing for our final mission in the South American Lostbelt! [k] @Goredolf Nemo Professor! Sion! How are the Storm Border's repairs coming along!? [k] [charaFadeout L 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 0] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] @Sion We have finished mending everything except the onboard facilities and the engine room. At the moment, we are getting ready to restart the Triton Engines. [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 1] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Nemo Professor Yessir. We're counting down the moments until we can begin repairing the armor plating's electromagnetic barrier that Kukulcan destroyed... [k] @Nemo Professor ...and begin reapplying our Anti-Spirit and Anti-Curse membrane coatings. [k] @Nemo Professor We should be back to combat readiness in about ten hours. [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk G] [charaFace G 4] [charaFadein G 0.1 1] @Nemo Once that's done, we'll restart the engines, generate new Spiritron torpedoes, and charge the main cannons. [k] @Nemo We expect it'll be a total of twenty hours before the ship is ready for both flight and combat. [k] [charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk L] [charaFace L 1] [charaFadein L 0.1 1] @Goredolf I see. Excellent work. To be honest, I was secretly beside myself when the Border was nearly split in two, as I didn't see how we could possibly come back from damage like that... [k] [charaFace L 2] @Goredolf ...but you've actually succeeded in restoring the whole thing! Thank goodness for Mictlān's abundant resources! [k] [charaFadeout L 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 17] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Da Vinci I've got a report to make, too. [k] @Da Vinci The density of the toxic gas in the eighth stratum is falling rapidly. [k] @Da Vinci According to Trismegistus II, the eighth and ninth strata will have breathable atmospheres in about ten hours. [k] @Da Vinci Which means the time of the underworld pilgrimage is finally upon us. [k] [charaFace E 8] @Da Vinci The only catch is, like Nemo said, we still can't move the Border yet. [k] @Da Vinci If we try to fly without barriers, we'll be easy prey for Kukulcan if she decides to finish the job she started when we arrived. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk L] [charaFace L 11] [charaFadein L 0.1 1] @Goredolf Unfortunately, Daybit is almost certainly preparing for his own underworld pilgrimage even as we speak. [k] @Goredolf By the time we finish rebooting the Border, he could well have reached the bottom stratum and revived ORT! [k] [charaFace L 14] @Goredolf So once again, we have no choice but to send our field team ahead! [k] @Goredolf Master [%1] and [&his:her] Servant, Mash Kyrielight! [k] @Goredolf Nitocris, Koyanskaya, and[line 2]loath though I am to let you go[line 2]Technical Advisor! [k] @Goredolf You have two options to choose from! [k] [charaFace L 12] @Goredolf Plan A: Operation Daybit Assault! [k] @Goredolf Locate and neutralize Daybit Sem Void on his way to the bottommost stratum. You should aim to get him somewhere between the sixth and eighth strata! [k] @Goredolf This should resolve the immediate threat without needing to go all the way down to the bottom stratum. The important thing is that ORT remains dead! [k] [charaFace L 11] @Goredolf Plan B: Operation Tree of Emptiness Felling! [k] @Goredolf Reach the bottom stratum before Daybit, find the Tree of Emptiness, and cut it down! [k] @Goredolf No matter how powerful ORT is, it's still a part of this Lostbelt, so getting rid of the latter should remove the former too. [k] [charaFace L 0] @Goredolf According to Trismegistus II's calculations, each plan has a fifty-fifty chance of succeeding. [k] [charaFace L 16] @Goredolf Now, just for the record, let me ask you this, Master [%1]. [k] @Goredolf Do you feel one of these plans has a better shot than the other? Don't be shy. Give us your honest opinion. [k] ?1:...Operation Daybit Assault, I guess? ?2:...Operation Tree of Emptiness Felling, I guess? ?! [charaFadeout L 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Kadoc No, we should go with both A and B, at the same time. [k] ?1:Both of them!? Does that mean[line 2] ?2:...Kadoc, are you saying[line 2] ?! [charaFace C 1] @Kadoc There's no reason for us to stick to just one choice. We should split up into a team to strike at Daybit and a team for the underworld pilgrimage. [k] @Kadoc Even if the strike team fails to stop Daybit, they should at least slow him down. [k] @Kadoc That'll buy the pilgrimage team time to reach the bottom stratum, cut down the Tree of Emptiness, and destroy this Lostbelt. [k] [charaFace C 0] @Kadoc That gives us the best chance of success. [k] @Kadoc I'll of course be on the Daybit assault team. I'll need the Shadow Border, Koyanskaya, and the best driver you've got. [k] @Kadoc My plan is to go after Daybit in the third underworld. [k] @Kadoc If the driver has a healthy number of top-tier magical circuits, so much the better. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk L] [charaFace L 4] [charaFadein L 0.1 1] @Goredolf Oho. I may not have been able to finish the Paris-Dakar Rally, but I still have good driving technique and off-road expertise. [k] @Goredolf And you're looking for a driver that surpasses me there, and who also possesses top-tier magical circuits? Where in the world are we going to find someone like that?

[charaFadeout F 0.1] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 8] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Kadoc Right? We have nothing to worry about there. [k] [charaFace C 0] @Kadoc So you guys just focus on the underworld pilgrimage. [k] @Kadoc I haven't cleared the third underworld, so that rules me out of that group anyway. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk G] [charaFace G 0] [charaFadein G 0.1 1] @Nemo Fine. I was already planning to use the Shadow Border in this mission anyway. [k] @Nemo All right, the advance team will take the Shadow Border down to the sixth stratum[line 2]the third underworld boundary. [k] @Nemo From there, the pilgrimage team will get out and head to the bottom stratum to cut down the Tree of Emptiness. [k] @Nemo The Daybit assault team will stay in the third underworld boundary, set up a dragnet, and carry out the plan from the Shadow Border. [k] @Nemo I don't love the thought of the pilgrimage team going on foot, though. We'll need help from deinos who can act as their transport. [k] @Nemo I know you said the deinos have left Chichén Itzá, but there may still be some there. [k] @Nemo I'll have the Marines take a look around and see if they can find a porter. [k] @Nemo ...On a related note, we should talk about Tepeu, too. [k] @Nemo He's been a tremendous help so far, but the conflict between the Crypter and Chaldea is a problem for Proper Human History alone. [k] @Nemo I don't cherish the idea of drawing him into our battle. What do you think, [%1]? [k] ?1:I'll talk to him. ?2:It'd be wrong to leave without a word after coming this far. ?! [charaFace G 2] @Nemo Got it. Then I'll leave it up to you. Tepeu likes to act mature, but he's also intensely curious. [k] @Nemo I'm sure he would help us if we asked. In fact, I'm not sure he'd forgive us if we didn't. [k] [charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 37] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Da Vinci Agreed. Shy though he might be, he does know how to hold a grudge! Go pull that shut-in out of his comfort zone! [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk L] [charaFace L 2] [charaFadein L 0.1 1] @Goredolf I see, I see. It's nice to hear you've become such good friends with a deinos! I don't know how it happened, but by all means, go ahead and talk to him! [k] [charaFace L 1] @Goredolf In the meantime, we'll continue our preparations! [k] @Goredolf This will likely be your last chance to take in Chichén Itzá! We don't have much time, so enjoy it while you can!
