[k] @Sanson I know.[sr]But I can't help being French. [k] @Mata Hari I'm just as out of place here! Besides, you can pass[sr]as an educated gentleman as long as you keep quiet. [k] @Mata Hari In my case, I just come across as a Roma who[sr]came to the New World to make my fortune. [k] [charaFace D 4] @Mata Hari These villagers may not care for the British Army,[sr]but they don't have much love for the French either. [k] [charaFace D 5] @Mata Hari In fact, this British settlement and France[sr]are currently at odds with one another. [k] @Mata Hari Only forty miles north, the French Army led Native Americans against a northern British colony, completely wiping it out. [k] [charaFace C 0] @Sanson Naturally, the British retaliated, and the respective colonies ended up fighting a fearsome battle. The competition for resources is fierce between colonies. War is all but inevitable. [k] @Sanson ...Truth be told, my great-grandfather, the first head of our family, was part of the French Colonial Army himself. [k] @Sanson He was deployed to Canada, but he must have taken[sr]part in skirmishes around this area as well. [k] [charaFace D 0] @Mata Hari I see. No wonder you have such complex[sr]feelings about this place. [k] @Mata Hari Retaliation after retaliation... Soldiers sacrificing their lives to avenge the loss of their commanders...

[k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 8] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Abigail Oh goodness! Mash, you've never had gravy before?[sr]Do they not make it in Europe? [k] [charaFace E 0] @Abigail It's a scrumptious sauce made using[sr]the juices from cooked meat. [k] [charaFace E 1] @Abigail The grown-ups all like to put it on turkey and[sr]steak, but I reeeally love it on potatoes. [k] @Abigail It's not the kind of thing you have every day either.[sr]You only get to enjoy it on Thanksgiving. [k] @Abigail It's too bad you and the rest of The [%1] Company didn't come during a holiday, [&Mr.:Ms.] Ringmaster. [k] [charaFace E 10] @Abigail It HAS been a while since we[sr]celebrated anything, though... [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 12] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Mash I see...[sr]I'm sorry to hear that. [k] @Mash Still, the meal that Tituba made for us was,[sr]uh...very good in its own right. [k] @Mash I'd never had porridge before either,[sr]so it was quite, uh...novel. [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 1] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Abigail Haha, it's okay, Mash, I understand.[sr]You don't have to be so polite. [k] [charaFace E 10] @Abigail Tituba does the best she can[sr]with what little we have... [k] [charaFace E 4] @Abigail ...but I know that porridge isn't something[sr]seasoned travelers like you would really love! [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 8] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Mash I...I'm sorry.[sr]I guess you saw right through me. [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Abigail Tituba cares a lot about being frugal, though I'm not sure why. Maybe it has to do with her own beliefs? [k] [charaFace E 10] @Abigail So when she makes porridge, she'll water down[sr]the milk, and skimp a lot on the honey. [k] @Abigail I'm not sure if Uncle just doesn't mind, or if he likes how she saves him money, but he never says a word about it. [k] [charaFace E 4] @Abigail (Sigh)...[sr]There are SO many things Salem is missing. [k] ?1:...Do you like this village, Abby? ?! [charaFace E 8] @Abigail Oh, you want to know how I feel about Salem...? [k] [charaFace E 0] @Abigail Nobody's ever asked me that before...[sr]I'm not quite sure how to answer... [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 0] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Mash Were you born here, Abby? [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Abigail Yes, I was. [k] [charaFace E 1] @Abigail There was a comet in the sky the year I was born.[sr]It was so big you could even see it during the day! [k] @Abigail I don't remember seeing it myself...[sr]But I'm sure it must have been a wonderful sight. [k] [charaFace E 4] @Abigail Anyway, I'm sure Salem pales in comparison[sr]to someplace like Boston... [k] [charaFace E 1] @Abigail But even this town has a lot going for it. [k] @Abigail Uncle told me that its name comes[sr]from the word “Jerusalem.” [k] @Abigail You know all about Jerusalem, right?[sr]Every good Christian does. [k] @Abigail It's the holy city that was once ruled[sr]by both King David and King Solomon. [k] [charaFace E 0] @Abigail The knights of the Crusades headed east to find it, but our Pilgrim Fathers set sail for the west instead. [k] [charaFace E 1] @Abigail When they arrived at the New World, they founded[sr]the towns of Plymouth, Boston, and Salem! [k] @Abigail It must have been really hard when they first arrived, but now, ships come here from around the world! [k] @Abigail And you saw how big our rye fields are, right?[sr]Can you believe this all used to be woodland once? [k] @Abigail God was kind enough to let us put down[sr]roots and settle here. We're truly blessed. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace E 1] [charaFadein E 0.1 0] [charaFace H 0] [charaFadein H 0.1 2] @Mash ...You're very proud about being part[sr]of a pioneer village, aren't you? [k] @Abigail Of course I am. It's where I was born and raised, after all. Isn't everyone proud of where they grew up? [k] [charaFace H 7] @Mash ...Yes, that's right. [k] [charaFace H 13] @Mash I think I can understand how you feel, if only a little.[sr]This is how history was made, after all. [k] @Mash Plus, at this time, New England was still a British colony, and hadn't yet declared its independence as America. [k] [charaFace E 8] @Abigail ...America?[sr]Who's that...? [k] [charaFace H 15] @Mash Oh...! I-I'm sorry.[sr]J-just forget I said anything.

[k] [charaFace E 10] @Abigail ...Well, uh... [k] [charaFace E 0] @Abigail No...not yet.[sr]I haven't left Salem in my whooole life. [k] [charaFace H 6] @Mash Really? Not even once? [k] [charaFace E 4] @Abigail ...No. Not even once. [k] [charaFace E 10] @Abigail Everything I know about Boston I heard from others...[sr]I'm sorry for misleading you. [k] @Abigail I just love hearing about other[sr]towns, and other countries. [k] [charaFace E 0] @Abigail Say, [&Mr.:Ms.] Ringmaster, you and your company have performed all over Europe and the colonies, right? [k] @Abigail What sort of show did you put on in Boston?[sr]Did you stop by Jamestown too? [k] @Abigail Is it true that New York has stores where you[sr]can buy tea and porcelain from the Orient? [k] @Abigail Oh, I really wish I could see your show, but since I can't, could you at least tell me about the different countries you've been to? [k] [charaFace H 12] @Mash ...W-would that be all right, Senpai? [k] ?1:Sure. We can't tell you everything, though. [charaFace E 1] @Abigail Really? That's wonderful![sr]Thank you, [&Mr.:Ms.] Ringmaster! [k] [charaFace H 1] @Mash That's great.[sr]I love hearing about foreign countries too. [k] ?2:I'll ask your uncle if you can attend too. [charaFace E 1] @Abigail Really?[sr]You would do that for me...? [k] [charaFace E 10] @Abigail ...Still... [k] [charaFace E 4] @Abigail I really appreciate the thought, but...it's okay.[sr]I don't mind that anymore. [k] @Abigail But if you insist, could you please help Tituba?[sr]She's not very good at defending herself. [k] @Abigail If Uncle gets forceful enough in his questioning,[sr]she might end up admitting to almost anything! [k] ?! ?1:How do you feel about your uncle? ?! [charaFace E 0] @Abigail Hmm... Uncle Carter's very responsible,[sr]and quiet, and strict. [k] @Abigail Everyone in the village is very pious, but I think they are also very stubborn, and they don't like to admit when they've made a mistake. [k] @Abigail But when Uncle starts talking to them in his calm voice, they always seem to accept what he says. [k] [charaFace H 13] @Mash I see. So the other villagers[sr]really trust him, don't they? [k] [charaFace E 1] @Abigail Yes, they do. He teaches at Harvard[sr]Divinity School in Boston, after all. [k] @Abigail He studies the Orient there.[sr]I don't really know quite what he researches...[charaFace E 10] [k] [charaFace E 1] @Abigail But he always has fascinating things[sr]to share about foreign countries. [k] @Abigail He's told me some really unusual stories about faraway lands like...the Qing dynasty, I think? And the Mughal Empire, and...a place called, uh...Zipang? They're all so fascinating. [k] @Mash I see. It sounds like your uncle is where your[sr]love of foreign countries came from, then. [k] [charaFace E 0] @Abigail I guess he must be. [k] [charaFace E 8] @Abigail Well...[sr]I do love hearing stories like that, but... [k] [charaFace E 1] @Abigail ...my very favorite thing is when I tell them to my friends, and let my imagination run wild. [k] @Abigail I especially enjoy telling them to Lavinia![sr]She's always so interested to hear them! [k] [charaFace H 0] @Mash Lavinia...?[sr]Is that a friend of yours? [k] [charaFace E 1] @Abigail Yes! She's the same age as me, so she was[sr]also born in the year of the comet. [k] @Abigail She's the best![sr]I always love talking with her! [k] @Abigail None of the other girls have much interest in foreign countries, so they only ever ask boring questions. [k] @Abigail But Lavinia loves to read,[sr]so she knows all sorts of things. [k] @Abigail Sometimes, I even think she knows more than Uncle. [k] @Abigail Sometimes we even come here[sr]to watch the sea together. [k] [charaFace E 10] @Abigail But... [k] [charaFace E 4] @Abigail ... [k] ?1:Did you and Lavinia have a fight or something? ?! @Abigail Yes... This time, you saw right[sr]through me, [&Mr.:Ms.] Ringmaster. [k] @Abigail I must have upset her somehow, because[sr]lately...she just won't talk to me. [k] @Abigail I asked her about it, but she kept refusing[sr]to answer, so after a while, I got upset too... [k] [charaFace E 0] @Abigail But she's still my best, most cherished friend.[sr]Being apart has helped me realize that. [k] [charaFace H 12] @Mash I noticed there were a number of friends of yours at the secret gathering last night, though. [k] @Mash Does that mean Lavinia wasn't among them...? [k] [charaFace E 4] @Abigail I secretly sent her an invitation...but she never showed up, just like I knew she wouldn't. [k] @Mash (I wonder... Could that be the girl[sr]who ran off into the forest...?) [k] [charaFace E 0] @Abigail I talked to Tituba about this,[sr]and she gave me some advice. [k] @Abigail She told me to be honest with myself, and think about whether I'd done something to hurt her without knowing or meaning to. [k] @Abigail She recommended I ask myself three questions. [k] ?1:So, what were they? ?! [charaFace E 10] @Abigail First: Have I pretended to be someone I'm not?[sr]Second: Have I jumped to any conclusions about her? [k] @Abigail And third: Have I been neglecting to pay attention to tomorrow because I'm still nursing a grudge from yesterday? [k] [charaFace H 7] @Mash Tituba said that?[sr]...I see. [k] [charaFace E 4] @Abigail ...After that, I realized there were a lot of things Lavinia could be angry at me for...and now I don't know what to apologize for first. [k] [charaFace H 0] @Mash Um...may I say something? [k] [charaFace H 12] @Mash Does Lavinia have white hair?[sr]And, uh, very pale skin...? [k] [charaFace E 8] @Abigail Yes, that's right.[sr]Have you already met her, Mash!? [k] [charaFace H 13] @Mash Yes. I actually saw her in the forest last night.[sr]I guess I hadn't told you yet. [k] [charaMoveReturn E -256,5 0.3] @Abigail Really!? [k] [charaFace E 1] @Abigail Do you mean it...?[sr]Then, she showed up after all. I'm so glad! [k] [charaFace E 4] @Abigail I'm just sorry I didn't notice she was there...[sr]Now I have something else to apologize to her about... [k] ?1:That's great news. [charaFace E 8] @Abigail Huh...? [k] [charaFace E 1] @Abigail ...Right... It is, isn't it... [k] ?2:So that was Lavinia, huh? [charaFace E 0] @Abigail Wow, so you saw her too, [&Mr.:Ms.] Ringmaster? [k] ?! [charaFace E 4] @Abigail ...Some people tease her about the way she looks. Some go even further, and say she looks downright sickly. [k] [charaFace E 1] @Abigail But I think she's beautiful.[sr]She looks just like a star fairy, don't you think? [k] [charaFace E 5] @Abigail If you ever make fun of her,[sr]I'll never forgive you! [k] [charaFace H 13] @Mash Don't worry. Neither Senpai,[sr]nor any of us, would ever do that. [k] [charaFace E 0] @Abigail ... [k] [charaFace H 1] @Mash Hey, look. I can see a sailboat[sr]on the other side of the pasture. [k] [charaFace H 6] @Mash It sounds...kind of heated over there? [k] [charaFace E 8] @Abigail I can hear people shouting angrily...[sr]Did a new ship just dock?

[k] @Villager I know there's a lot of strange folk in the theater, but no one would ever come to Salem looking to get rich. [k] @Villager Unless you're secretly up to some dirty,[sr]shameful business, like that sailor said? [k] @Villager For that matter, you're awfully young to be a troupe leader. How many shows have you performed, anyway? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 0] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] @Nezha This. Will be our first.

[charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 0] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Mash Senpa[line 2]I mean, Ringmaster,[sr]please let me handle this.[charaFace H 7] [k] @Mash I have some notes from Chaldea[sr]for situations just like this. [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.4] [charaTalk H] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 0] [charaFace H 7] [charaFadein H 0.1 2] @Mash Sir, I can see you care deeply about this town,[sr]and I understand your concerns. [k] @Mash B-but I assure you that despite our appearances, we at The [%1] Company are good, God-fearing people. [k] @Mash We may not be Puritans or Quakers, but we always perform with gratitude for all of God's blessings. [k] @Mash We pray every day, and as long as there's a church nearby, we make it a point to attend Mass as well. [k] @Mash On our way here, we heard about a village in[sr]New England that no other performers will go near. [k] [charaFace H 8] @Mash A village where good people live pious lives... [k] [charaFace H 7] @Mash A place that truly lives up to its name:[sr]the city upon a hill. [k] @Villager ... [k] [charaFace H 0] @Mash As fellow Christians, we hope to learn[sr]from the people of Salem's example... [k] @Mash ...and if we can bring them some joy in return through the only trade we know, we could ask for nothing more. [k] @Villager The city upon a hill, huh... [k] @Villager Hmm...[sr]I can see that you mean well. [k] @Villager And given what happened in that little tussle earlier,[sr]I can also see that you want to blend in to our town without causing trouble. [k] @Villager Even if you are a bit on the unusual side. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 3] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] @Nezha Hmph. [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Villager That said...[sr]I don't want you leading us into temptation. [k] @Villager People say that we Puritans hate plays, novels,[sr]and dancing, but that's giving us too much credit. [k] @Villager It's not wrong, but it's not quite right, either. We do our best to minimize those distractions in our lives precisely because we are drawn to them. [k] @Villager Every child knows that plays[sr]are fun and exciting. [k] @Villager And this tavern certainly sees its share of people coming in looking to relax and enjoy themselves. [k] @Villager The people of this village purposefully go around turning blind eyes to each others' failings, as long as they only involve a glass of hard cider. [k] @Villager We are all of us frail vessels. And so we do not invite further temptation into our lives. That is my concern about your troupe. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk G] [charaFace G 1] [charaFadein G 0.1 1] @Robin Hood Hard cider IS pretty great stuff... [k] [charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 8] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Mash ...I understand that as performers,[sr]we may not be welcome... [k] [charaFace H 12] @Mash But does that mean...we're not[sr]allowed to be here at all? [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Villager That is not my decision to make. [k] @Villager But if you're willing to demonstrate what sort of play you mean to put on, that might go a long way towards changing the people of Salem's minds. [k] @Villager If you insist on performing...I'd be willing to speak to the Reverend and other respected villagers on your behalf. [k] @Villager Why not try putting on a small show just for them,[sr]and getting approval from the village that way? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 7] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Mash I see... Senpai, I think this[sr]could be a good opportunity. [k] ?1:Definitely. ?! [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Villager If you refuse to do so, and mean to ply your trade without regard to the villagers' sense of piety, then I would prefer that you leave. [k] @Villager The barkeep tells me you're[sr]guests of Professor Carter. [k] @Villager All the more so in that case. [k] @Villager If you don't want to be hauled out before the judge, you should go somewhere that's more welcoming to outsiders, like Rhode Island or Pennsylvania. [k] @Villager This is Massachusetts. Ours may be a small village,[sr]but the eyes of God, and His justice, are upon us all. [k] @Villager I don't want to see anyone hanged here. [k] ?1:Hanged...!? ?! @Villager About...four years ago, I think,[sr]I saw a criminal hanged in Boston's town square. [k] @Villager There was talk of witches and foul play.[sr]Perhaps you heard about it yourselves? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk G] [charaFace G 1] [charaFadein G 0.1 1] @Robin Hood Oho... Witches, you say?[sr]Now that's something we'd like to hear all about. [k] [charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 0] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] @Nezha Finally.[sr]Something relevant. To the mission. [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 0] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Mash ...If I may, Senpai,[sr]I think we should do as this man suggests. [k] @Mash It's a good opportunity, and would make[sr]our investigation considerably easier. [k] ?1:Hmm. I guess this is a kind of test then. [charaFace H 13] @Mash I'll do everything I can to help, of course. [k] ?2:Sounds good. (Though I am worried about the others...) [charaFace H 12] @Mash ...I can see you have concerns. [k] ?! [charaFace H 0] @Mash I believe there was a play in the book[sr]Andersen gave us that should be perfect. [k] @Mash If it's all right with you, Senpai,[sr]shall we go with that one? [k] ?1:Okay, let's do it. ?! [charaFace H 7] @Mash Understood. Then I'll speak to this[sr]man and request his assistance. [k] @Mash Now, we should head back to our[sr]room and get ready to perform. [k] [charaFace H 6] @Mash ...Oh, and if you're wondering about Abby,[sr][charaFace H 0]I escorted her back to the town center. [k] [charaFace H 13] @Mash She was a little shaken up by the gunshots,[sr]but she regained her composure soon enough. [k] [charaFace H 12] @Mash ...At least, I think she did...
