[k] @Da Vinci We know exactly where Oxford's bell is, and now that Woodwose is gone, we can ring it anytime. [k] @Da Vinci So I propose that we head to Orkney next. [k] @Da Vinci Morgan is bound to be watching Oxford right now, which should mean Orkney is ripe for the picking. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 9] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Percival I see... That's a good point. We will have to make our way to Orkney eventually, after all. [k] @Percival And since none of the queen's troops have been deployed there, now would seem to be our best chance. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Oberon Unfortunately, it's not quite that simple. [k] @Oberon The queen will send her army after us the moment we head to Orkney, to say nothing of Cnoc na Riabh's army in the north. [k] @Oberon So I think it would be safer to advance the Round Table Army up near Camelot, then have some troops protect us on the way to Orkney. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 0] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Da Vinci No, if we go there as an army, Cnoc na Riabh will mobilize her army in response. [k] @Da Vinci She's already gone on the record saying she sees the Child of Prophecy as an obstacle, and Altria as a rival. [k] @Da Vinci So if Altria makes any overt moves, she'll have no choice but to get in our way by virtue of her position as queen. [k] @Da Vinci But we really don't want to fight the northern faeries unless we absolutely have to. We need them on our side fighting Morgan instead. [k] @Da Vinci Right, Percival? Altria? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 0] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Percival Right. We would like nothing more than to form an alliance with the northern faeries. [k] @Percival Not as allies in the fight against the queen, but as fellow citizens of Britain. [k] [charaFace B 3] @Percival We've tried sending messengers to Cnoc na Riabh several times, but unfortunately, she won't even give us the time of day. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 30] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Altria I mean, Cnoc na Riabh does hate humans. Actually, I don't know if I'd say “hate” so much as... [k] @Altria Well, never mind. That doesn't matter now. [k] [charaFace D 6] @Altria Anyway, I agree with Da Vinci. I think the fourth bell I ring should be Orkney's.

She should be willing to negotiate with us now. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 0] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] @Gareth Yeah! You're the Child of Prophecy in both name and deed now! The Chocolate Queen can't afford to ignore you anymore! [k] [charaFace F 5] @Gareth Okay, then the question is: How do we get to Orkney without anyone finding out? [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 9] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Percival ...What if we went through the Lake District? [k] @Percival It's a marshland in northwestern Britain, and constantly mired in fog. The terrain is much too treacherous for an army to cross, and it's full of mors, too. [k] @Percival Both Cnoc na Riabh's army and the royal army always keep their distance. [k] @Percival It would be a much more dangerous route than taking the highway, but[line 2] [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 7] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Senji Muramasa Sounds like a good idea to me. Let's do it. [k] @Senji Muramasa We only got but so many people with us. We'd be better off dodging mors than an army. [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Oberon ...I guess that's true.[sr]What do you think, [%1]? [k] ?1:If it gets us there undetected, I'm all for it. ?2:I trust Da Vinci. ?! [charaFace C 4] @Oberon I see. Then I guess that's that. [k] [charaFace C 1] @Oberon Personally, I don't think splitting off from our army is a good idea, but I guess you guys are used to moving about as a small, elite unit. [k] @Oberon For a team with your skills, the Lake District shouldn't be much of a problem. Good luck. I'll be rooting for you. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 10] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Altria Huh? You're not coming with us, Oberon? [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 7] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Oberon Of course not. The Round Table Army is in the middle of a rapid growth period. Someone has to stay and keep an eye on them. [k] @Oberon Powering-up the Child of Prophecy with the Bells of Pilgrimage is important, of course, but so is improving our army. [k] @Oberon Percival, I'd like you to come along and command the Round Table Army too, so we can secure Oxford's bell. [k] @Oberon It'll leave Londinium a little thinly guarded, but if we can occupy Oxford, we arguably won't need it anymore. [k] @Oberon And once that happens, the queen's army won't have any more reason to attack there.

[k] @Percival Altria, [%1], Muramasa,[sr]Da Vinci, Gareth, and Habetrot... [k] @Percival ...will set out for Orkney's bell[sr]by way of the Lake District. [k] @Percival Redra Bit, would you be willing to help them? [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk G] [charaFace G 0] [charaFadein G 0.1 1] @Redra Bit I can certainly take them as far as the edge of the Lake District, but I won't be able to bring the wagon in there. [k] @Redra Bit So once I've seen all of you off... [k] @Redra Bit ...I'll lay low in Edinburgh and pretend to be a wandering knight. [k] @Redra Bit You'll all be stopping by Edinburgh on your way back from Orkney, right? So I'll rendezvous with you there. [k] [charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 11] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Oberon That sounds perfect.[sr]Where have you been hiding all these smarts? [k] @Oberon For that matter, why were you toiling away as Aurora's secret wagon horse all this time? [k] @Oberon You could have had a much more prestigious[sr]career under Woodwose. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk G] [charaFace G 1] [charaFadein G 0.1 1] @Redra Bit Hahaha. As you can see, I've always had an affinity for the wind, so the Wind clan city feels like home to me. [k] ?1:Didn't you say you were the faerie steed of flame earlier? ?2:Redra Bit: faster than wind. ?! [charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 0] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Percival All right then, Oberon and I will head back to Londinium.

[k] [charaFace F 4] @Gareth ...I'm sorry, Altria. [k] @Gareth I know this is selfish of me, especially after I declared myself the Child of Prophecy's number one knight... [k] @Gareth I know my going back to Londinium probably won't make that much difference... [k] [charaFace F 19] @Gareth ...but I can still help there, and I just can't leave its people to fend for themselves.

You have nothing to apologize for. I think it's great that you found somewhere you belong. [k] [charaFace D 1] @Altria Don't worry about me! With [%1],[sr]Da Vinci, and Muramasa, I'll be just fine! [k] @Altria Sure, I'll miss having you around, but it won't be long before we'll get to see each other again in Londinium! So let's make sure we've both gotten stronger by then!

[charaFace C 1] @Oberon Right. Take care out there. [k] @Oberon Be warned, there's a ton of ash over on that far shore, and it also gets freezing cold out there. [k] @Oberon And since neither Blanca nor I can cross the ocean, we have no idea what may be going on inside Orkney. [k] @Oberon Still, whatever you find there, I'm sure it won't be as bad as what you had to overcome in the Russian Lostbelt. [k] @Oberon Oh, and keep an eye on Altria. The more nonchalant she acts, the more she's tearing up inside. [k] ?1:Really? [charaFaceFade C 10 0.2] @Oberon Yes. She's been through a lot, you know. I doubt there's a soul in Britain better at putting on a brave face. [k] [charaFaceFade C 8 0.2] @Oberon Don't always take what she says at face value. Make sure you give her the support she really needs. [k] [charaFace C 0] ?2:...Yeah. I know. [charaFaceFade C 11 0.2] @Oberon Haha, guess I needn't have bothered warning you, huh?

[k] @Oberon So in the meantime, I'll do whatever is necessary to find out where the sixth bell is located. [k] [charaFace C 1] @Oberon After that, it'll finally be time to face Morgan, regardless of how the odds are stacked against us. [k] [charaFace C 4] @Oberon What's more, something tells me that even defeating her won't be enough to solve all our problems. [k] @Oberon ...There's something else in Britain. Something cursing every living creature here. [k] @Oberon Unfortunately, we haven't the least idea what it could be. [k] [charaFace C 0] @Oberon Remember this, [%1]: we still know almost nothing about Britain's history. [k] @Oberon If we're lucky, maybe you'll find a clue as to how this world came to be the way it is in Orkney. [k] @Oberon And if we're really lucky, that clue may just give us the edge we need to defeat Morgan.
