After the incident at the pit, Mash and Aesc began investigating ruins all around Britain.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠
|
||
Their only leads were the stories passed down within the Mirror clan, and the murals left by the Rain clan.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠
|
||
And so, they set out from west to east on a great adventure in search of written records left behind by humans.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠
|
||
Between running into mors, getting attacked by anti-Londinium faeries...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠
|
||
...and fighting the occasional giant monster when Aesc felt like it, things weren't always easy...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠
|
||
But, when all was said and done, these travels became lovely memories! Of course, it helped that Mash was always so strong and awesome no matter what!

[lr]Well, they had a lot of conversations like that,[sr]so I thought I'd include one for posterity.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|

＠
|

Anyway, their search through ruins lasted about five months.
|

[k]
|

＠
|

They didn't learn much, but they didn't give up, either.
|

|

They kept doggedly pursuing the threads of Britain's history, and eventually arrived at the Priestess's Prophecy.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠
|
||
It was Britain's first prophecy of destruction[line 2]a curse left behind by the first human, the priestess of the enshrined deity.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠
|
||
It predicted there would be four major wars named after the four seasons, but the war of winter had not yet happened.
|

[k]
|
||
|

＠
|

They never did find out what it meant.
|

＠

Really all we got from our expedition was a lot of fun memories.
|

[k]

＠
|

And while I know I've already written this down several times, let me remind you once again that this took place in Fae Era 400.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠
|
||
Now, there were only a few days to go until the coronation at Londinium, which would decide the fate of all of Britain.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠
|
||
And as one of the key figures in that coronation,[sr]Aesc needed to return to the castle soon.

[k]
|

＠Aesc
|
||
For the last thirty-six hundred years, I've been dispelling the calamities that appear every hundred years, and the Great Calamities that appear every thousand.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
...Before, when I said I would let the faeries handle the aftermath and go to sleep in a coffin... Well, it wasn't the whole truth.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
The truth is, every time I saved them from a calamity...the faeries would come after me.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
I've never known a moment of true peace. The only thing I could ever do was run for my life and hibernate for years at a time.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
I'm sure that, at the start, I really did want to build an ideal nation.
|
||
[k]
|

|

[charaFace C 6]

||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
But not now. Not anymore.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
Every time I decide to work harder and finally get it right next time, I only ever end up having more stones thrown at me.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
I've been imprisoned, crucified, beheaded, drowned, burned... The only thing they haven't done is poison me.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
So, by now, I've stopped putting my hopes in faeries.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
My only companions are Totorot, the Black Knight,[sr]and Wryneck. I'm not even sure about Uther.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
Even they only see me as an important tool. Nothing more.
|

[k]

|

So I only fight to protect Britain for myself. It's the only place I belong.
|

Mash, you came here from the Era of the High Queen. I don't know which faction you belong to in that time.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
I can never know, for if I did, that would change what happens in the future.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
I've been vacillating for a long time now about whether to kill you or save you...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
[charaFace C 6]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
...but I don't think it matters now. This is the Fae Era[line 2]a history entirely of the Tree of Emptiness's making.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
And as long as that tree exists,[sr]anything goes in its Lostbelt.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
No matter what may be added to this world, it will simply adjust its history to match.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
Things don't have to make sense in a world with a Tree of Emptiness.
|
||
[k]
|

|
||
The reason Morgan was so cavalier about using the water mirror to send things back in time to the Fae Era...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
...is her awareness that nothing which changed in the Fae Era will affect the start of the Era of the High Queen.

...So, you're saying worlds created by Trees of Emptiness can tolerate a fair number of discrepancies without falling apart?

That's right. That's why I'm here. The Fae Era is the last point in time where things can be so wibbly-wobbly.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
The moment you spoke of the Era of the High Queen, I had a flash of insight as to how the future must have played out.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
She must have used all the magical energy stored inside the Tree of Emptiness to transform this Lostbelt into a Singularity.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
I still won't know why she chooses to do that until the time comes, of course...
|

[k]

[charaFace C 0]

But in the meantime, Mash, I can tell you that you can only exist while the Fae Era lasts.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
In four hundred years, at the start of the Era of the High Queen, you'll disappear whether you're still alive or dead.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
You do understand that, right?

...Yes. I arrived in Britain in year 2019 of the Era of the High Queen.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Mash
|
||
Since I didn't exist in that era before that date, when the Tree of Emptiness dies...

Ugh, I swear.[sr]Just because Fae Era's history can be changed...
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
...that doesn't give her the right to send every problem she can't handle back to the past to let nature disappear it for her.
|
||
[k]
|
||
|
||
＠Aesc
|
||
And now she's started sending Servants as well as calamities? Unbelievable.
|
||
[k]
|

|

|

That's just pathetic, is what it is.

So I guess the least I can do is make things right.
|

[k]

|

Since I'm mixed up in all of this too, it's my responsibility to send you back to the future you came from.

It should work as long as there aren't any historical inconsistencies leading up to the calamity of Norwich in year 2019 of the Era of the High Queen.

So, how would you feel about hiding out at the farthest edge of the world, where no one would ever see you?
