[k] @ The Mystic Code had an unbelievable ability of gathering chocolates with just a sweep of the arm... [k] @ This, of course, boosted chocolate production further still...

[k] @Da Vinci Too many preposterous, impossible feats... Even for a Heroic Spirit or an ancient empress with extensive knowledge of magecraft! There's no way something like this would work! [k] @Da Vinci Indeed, my research confirms what I expected all along... [k] @Da Vinci It's a Holy Grail.[sr]She's using a Holy Grail. [k] ?1:I knew it... ?! @Da Vinci We didn't realize it because the Grail was hidden deep in the Hanging Gardens, in the core that powers and operates the whole thing. [k] @Da Vinci See, the Hanging Gardens have both real and mystical components. Remember...? It's made from the soil and stone of her homeland... [k] @Da Vinci ...but at the same time it's pure Noble Phantasm.[sr]All of that combined makes it very hard to investigate. [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [charaTalk G] [charaFace F 0] [charaFadein F 0.1 0] [charaFace G 0] [charaFadein G 0.1 2] [wt 0.1] @Mash So what is her intent? [k] @Da Vinci Who knows? At this point, she says she's just out to make chocolates. Beyond that, I couldn't say. [k] @Da Vinci However, it's clear this is just going to keep escalating. [k] @Da Vinci Bluntly, all this extra chocolate is going to start causing serious problems. [k] [charaFace G 15] @Mash This sounds like a joke... [k] [charaFace F 4] @Da Vinci But if we don't take them here, the chocolates are just going to pile up and likely be spread around the world... [k] @Da Vinci ...and that would be a real disaster. [k] ?1:Is there a way to stop it? ?! [charaFace F 0] @Da Vinci Well, according to my calculations, there's simply no way we can destroy the Hanging Gardens to retrieve the Holy Grail. [k] @Da Vinci It'd be like sending a small boat out to sea in the middle of a hurricane. That's how dangerous it is when a Holy Grail is functioning normally. [k] @Da Vinci So I checked to see if we can do anything about Semiramis, who's controlling the whole thing. [k] @Da Vinci But, bad news there, turns out that even if we stop Semiramis, we won't stop the Hanging Gardens. [k] ?1:But it's a Noble Phantasm! ?! @Da Vinci Even so. It has some sort of automated attribute, or there's something else going on. Either way, this is getting to be rather complicated. [k] [charaFace G 15] @Mash S-so, what can we do? [k] @Mash Is there nothing we can do to stop the chocolate production without her help? [k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_5 1.5] @Da Vinci It's not that there isn't a way. We just need to change how we think. We need to make even more chocolate in a very short space of time. [k] [charaFace G 14] @Mash !? [k] [bgm BGM_EVENT_4 0.1] @Da Vinci The Holy Grail may seem to supply boundless power,[sr]but it is not in any way everlasting. [k] @Da Vinci And right now, it's supplying the Hanging Gardens with incredible amounts of power. [k] @Da Vinci Space, mass, time, causality...all of those have been twisted for the purpose of producing chocolate.[sr]It's bound to reach its limit soon. [k] @Da Vinci The best case would be to have it exhaust itself, but if the magical energy is circulating well, we can't count on that happening. [k] @Da Vinci That's why, instead of maintaining its expected pace of chocolate production, we're going to make it work at a pace it doesn't expect. [k] @Da Vinci In other words, we're going to destabilize the magical energy circulation. That way, even if only for a brief while, it will run out of magical energy. [k] @Da Vinci It may just give us an instant, but that brief moment of stagnation will be our chance. [k] @Da Vinci If the Holy Grail goes inert, we should be able to get to it. Then we can either take or destroy it. [k] ?1:It's all or nothing. ?2:If that's our only option, then so be it. ?! [charaFace G 7] @Mash ...Yes. If Master and the others have decided on it,[sr]then I have no objections. [k] @Mash It may be dangerous, but we shall[sr]increase production to reach overflow! [k] @Mash Please don't worry... I am confident that in our ability to weather this storm. I will make sure that Chaldea can ride out the chocolate apocalypse coming our way!
