4 4 301 She has been walking for a very long time, uncertain where to go.
5 5 301 But when she reaches this place, she feels like she should stay here for a while.
6 6 301 She walks past ruin after ruin, tallying the patterns and marks she can barely recognize. She even sees a hideous plate that says "Evacuation Site 184—Acadia Evacuation".
7 7 301 AniZhuanchangBegin Walking along the ruins, she finds an underground theater. Its spacious hall and the dilapidated interior tell the story of the theater's past grandeur.
11 11 301 AniZhuanchangEnd 1 There is no music in this place, only two dying figures. One of them is quite young, the other fairly senior.
12 12 301 The girl is clearly sick, her hasty breathing seemingly blowing away what little life she has left.
13 13 301 The old soldier leans on the crumbling backdrop, his injuries suggesting that he was in an intense battle. The red lights from his wounds are particularly blinding.
14 14 301 They seem to be infected with some virus. She should remember the name, but she cannot.
15 15 301 Soldier Aargh... C-calling conservation area 184... I've found the missing kid... 1
16 16 301 Soldier I was attacked by Corrupted during the mission... I'm damaged beyond the threshold... Please send reinforcement... 1
17 17 202 1 2 1
18 18 201 1 500291
19 19 301 1 She knows those words. She has heard them before. 1
20 20 301 Not here. Somewhere far away, where a young girl cried in the same way.
21 21 301 She does not want to hear that cry anymore.
22 22 301 She steps forward, hoping to assist the two figures.
23 23 301 But as she approaches them, the girl's breathing gets faster, and the limping body of the soldier tenses up.
24 24 301 Did... she do that? Hesitant, she stops. She dares not to get closer, seeing how their conditions worsen.
25 25 301 Suddenly, the soldier raises a hand, seemingly trying to get up. His damaged frame gives in soon, however, falling forward after moving a few inches. But she finds his trembling finger pointing toward her.
26 26 301 She looks down and sees a device.
27 27 204 1 3
28 28 301 The gap in her mind seems to be filled up perfectly by the shape of this device.
29 29 301 It is a transmitter, she realizes.
30 30 301 AniZhuanchangBegin She turns on the device that the soldier cannot reach. After a brief pause, she decides to input the soldier's cry from earlier as well. Then she leaves before her memory returns to her like a deadly tempest.
35 35 301 She has been walking for a very long time, uncertain where to go.
36 36 301 She seems to be traveling in a universe. Not that she remembers what a universe is exactly, but she can feel the boundless space when she thinks of that word.
37 37 301 Then, she stops.
38 38 301 Light purple petals enter her view, spreading all over the field.
39 39 301 As if the boundless universe suddenly opens a purple eye, she is drawn by a tender but unwavering gravity.
40 40 301 She reaches the eye. She can hear the rustling of the flowers by her feet. For a moment, she is surrounded by the gravity of love, and the empty void of space leaves her in an instant.
41 41 301 Then she hears a call. She turns around.
