[k] @Announcement Known as SE.RA.PH for short, this reborn pure land of pleasure is modeled after the digital world. [k] @Announcement 128 Masters and Servants have come here in order to prevent the real world from being destroyed. [k] @Announcement While we have nothing but praise for this noble purpose... [k] @Announcement Human desires are insatiable, and our audience won't be satisfied with nobility alone. [k] @Announcement Thus, one more condition for victory has been added to SE.RA.PH: [k] @Announcement Kill all 127 other Masters.[sr]Be the last one standing. [k] @Announcement Once you are, you will be granted the Mooncell, a source of unfathomable power. [k] @Announcement But please do be careful.[sr]SE.RA.PH has no exit. [k] @Announcement And doing nothing is not an option. [k] @Announcement Whether you fight, or kill one another...you have no choice but to put your survival first.

[k] @BB There you are, Senpai! Welcome to the For-Adults-Only trap! There's no going back now! [k] [charaFace A 1] @BB No wonder you conquered the Temple of Time![sr]I have to admit that you've got courage! [k] [charaFace A 6] @BB Of course, that's pretty much the only thing you've got going for you, so I don't expect you to stand out in any other way. [k] ?1:What's going on here, BB!? ?2:Hey! What was that about 1GB!? [charaFace A 10] @BB Wait, that's what's bothering you?[sr]You're a lot pettier than your data indicated. [k] [charaFace A 0] @BB But the fact remains that you just don't have much going on [&down there:up here], so you'll have to deal with it! [k] @BB Sorry! But hey, don't worry: it's not about the size, it's the shape that matters. [k] ?! [charaFace A 6] @BB ...Let's see. You're completely cut off from Chaldea, and you don't possess the skills of a wizard. [k] @BB Since you're so hopeless, I guess the helpful game master[line 2]that's me[line 2]will just have to do the work of explaining the rules to you. [k] @BB At the moment, there are a bunch of Servants butting heads with each other here in SE.RA.PH. [k] [charaFace A 0] @BB And why not? This Holy Grail War is nothing but a battle to the death between all 128 of them![se ade76] [k] @BB And just like you, Senpai, they all came here like lambs to the slaughter. [k] @BB Maaaybe because I fooled them into thinking there was a teensy-weensy world-ending threat to contend with. [k] @BB Little did they know that this was really nothing more than a way for me to kill some time![se ade76] [k] ?1:A 128-Servant battle to the death... [charaFace A 6] @BB That's right. It's a tacky little game I whipped up based on the Moon Holy Grail War. [k] [charaFace A 0] @BB Of course, the Mooncell had a whole tournament thing going on, while this is just a straight-up down-and-dirty battle royale. [k] ?2:Then you're the one behind all this! [charaFace A 5] @BB Well duh! Who do you think I am, anyway? [k] @BB I'm BB! The original fallen heroine, the “Oops, did I do that?” kouhai who ends up destroying the world! [k] @BB This time, to put it modestly, I actually went out of my way to make sure you all suffer! [k] ?! [charaFace A 4] @BB Anyway... You really don't have anything going for you, do you, Senpai? Without any Servants around, it's almost sad how weak you are. [k] [charaFace A 9] @BB So since even I can't help but feel a little sorry for you, I'll help you out just a little more. [k] [charaFace A 6] @BB Yes, this is Seraphix. [k] @BB Think of it as a zone made entirely out of light, where everything has been digitized into Pseudo-Spiritrons. [k] @BB As long as intellectual activity is taking place here, an information life-form like myself and an organic life-form like you can interact in the same space-time. [k] @BB Furthermore, knowledge, experience, and power sources you attain here will be carried over when you return to the physical world. [k] @BB So any battle you engage in here on SE.RA.PH has the same significance that it would in real life, and things that happen here can and do affect reality. [k] [charaFace A 9] @BB What's that? How did this happen?[sr]You mean, why did Seraphix end up digitized? [k] [charaFace A 0] @BB You'll have to figure that out for yourself, Senpai.[sr]It wouldn't be fair to the others if I told you. [k] @BB Now, this is where Seraphix's front gate used to be. It's the entrance that all the regular staff used when commuting here from the company dormitory. [k] @BB Makes the perfect place for you to start your SE.RA.PH expedition, if I do say so myself. Don't you think? [k] ?1:This is...the front gate? [charaFace A 6] @BB Yup. It had to be rebuilt after the digitization destroyed it. [k] ?2:Um, that map looks kind of...feminine. [charaFace A 5] @BB Just ignore that.[sr]Even I find it embarrassing. [k] [charaFace A 10] @BB Still, once I took over the system, it was inevitable that the oil rig would assimilate with my consciousness. [k] @BB Doesn't really take a genius to figure out what shape it would take when it was reformatted during the digitization, does it? [k] ?! [charaFace A 0] @BB Anyway, now that you're here, Senpai, there's no quitting or running away! [k] @BB Your only choice is to scuttle along SE.RA.PH like an ant carrying a sugar cube. [k] @BB And if you don't like that idea, you'll have to unravel the whole mystery of what's happening here toot sweet! [k] @BB Once you do that, you'll finally be free of the ant life![sr]Oh, but that said... [k] [charaFace A 11] @BB Time isn't exactly on your side here, you know? [k] @BB Once SE.RA.PH sinks to the bottom of the trench, everyone dies. Even I can't change that. [k] @BB So you'll have to fulfill the victory conditions and make it back alive. Assuming you stupid humans are capable of that, of course.

[k] @??? It's sad how you were about to be killed with no means of defending yourself, and it's sad how you preyed on a helpless beginner. [k] @??? This may be a barbaric slaughterfest, but it is precisely times like this when one must conduct oneself elegantly. Otherwise, you'll lose your audience. [k] @??? The victor who triumphs over every obstacle must act with all due decorum. [k] @??? But what decorum is there to be found in killing a Master who has yet to even properly take the stage? [k] @??? Isn't that right, Suzuka? You don't deserve such fine brocade if this is how you choose to act. [k] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 5] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Suzuka You!? What're you doing here!? [k] [messageOff] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 6] [charaFadein C 0.4 1] @??? ...Oh, this is lovely. Just seeing you all flustered like this is enough to put a spring in my step. [k] @??? Very well then, since we aren't complete strangers,[sr]I suppose I can answer your question. [k] @??? Why did I help this human?[sr]Why am I here in the first place? [k] [charaFace C 1] @??? Do you even need to ask? I'm a prima ballerina who follows her heart wherever it takes her. I never forget when someone has humiliated me. [k] @??? So I have quite literally flown back up from the bowels of the earth for a chance to fight you all once more. [k] ?1:You... ?2:(Why does she have the same face as BB!?) ?! [charaFace C 0] @??? ... [k] [charaFace C 1] @??? Hmm. I really only helped you on a whim, but I see you don't have any Servants, do you? [k] @??? That works out well. Very well, in fact. You see, I've been looking for a puppet[line 2]ahem, a Master[line 2]of my own. [k] @??? So I'll help rescue you from her, if you form a contract with me. And you really should. [k] @??? After all, it is either that, or die here. [k] @??? ...Well? You don't have much time.[sr]Listen up, because I'm only going to say this once: [k] [charaFace C 1] @Meltryllis I'm Meltryllis, the Alter Ego of pleasure.[sr]I'll serve as your sword for as long as I feel like it.

I can feel magical energy flowing into me, though it really isn't much. Being decisive is an admirable trait, [%1]. [k] @Meltryllis All right, I'll take it from here. [k] @Meltryllis Suzuka's attacks have long range, so keep your distance to ensure you don't get caught in the crossfire. But don't go so far away that I can't see you. [k] [charaFace C 1] @Meltryllis When it comes right down to it, I don't trust humans. [k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_1 2.5] @Meltryllis So if you get too far away from me, even once,[sr]I might just melt you down like an old candle, okay?
