5 3 301 DialogEnable 1 Atiel Hey, Simon! By the looks of the stuff here, I think we made it to the database room. 1
6 4 301 Simon Hang on, let me have a look... 2
7 5 301 Simon Hey, Diana. Are you familiar with this system? 2

11 6 301 1 Diana Only just a thing or two. 3
12 7 301 Atiel I'll give you a hand, too! 1
13 8 301 After securing the server room in the research lab, Simon immediately sets about looking for intel on Amberia.

16 9 301 1 Not technologically inclined and unable to help, Rosetta is in the room lost in thought.
17 1008 302 What's on your mind? 10 Tired? 11
18 10 12 301 Rosetta I was just thinking about how many Forest Guards were born here. 1
19 11 12 301 Rosetta Maybe... 1
20 12 301 Rosetta I may be labeled a sinner all the same, but I don't carry the same weight as Diana and the others. 1
21 13 301 Rosetta I was modified because of other reasons. After I was reborn, I've been fighting ever since. 1
22 14 301 Rosetta After all this fighting, I may have gotten stronger. But I still can't change my misfortune... 1
23 1009 204 1 8
24 15 301 Rosetta And when I met you and Alpha, I really thought that was the end. 1
25 16 301 Rosetta But I survived, and then I had to face Alpha again. Then this time, I thought it would just be a few minor skirmishes... 1
26 17 301 Rosetta Who'd have thought? We're now up against that Amberia in the legends. 1
27 1010 302 It's just a coincidence. 18 Looks like we're all unlucky. 18
28 18 301 Rosetta ...Of course, I by no means think I'm special. I'm just used to it is all. 1
29 19 301 Rosetta But enough about me... If we can solve this once and for all, then the Forest Guards can finally rest at ease. 1
30 1012 302 Why? 20 But we can't tell anyone about Amberia. Can we? 21
31 20 500 301 Rosetta ...Bygones can finally be bygones. And we can bring an end to the nightmare known as Amberia. 1
32 21 500 301 Rosetta It doesn't matter. What matters is that we put the past to rest. 1
33 500 204 1 4
34 22 301 Rosetta In fact, many people in the ARU think that the "tide" is just a ruse by the Forest Guard to ensure our status. 1
35 23 301 Rosetta They're always afraid that we will become the next Amberia. 1
36 24 301 Rosetta They've always been in fear, in fear that another Amberia will rise in the ARU. 1
37 7001 301 Rosetta Fearing... even with that master code they programmed us with—the code to make us listen to their commands. 1
38 25 301 Rosetta But none of the Forest Guard wishes for revenge... "Amid torrential snow and wind, the Forest Guard's honor stands strong." 1
39 26 301 Rosetta This is an old saying among the Forest Guard... Well, I guess the Forest Guard aren't exactly that old. 1

42 27 301 1 Simon So... Why did they turn you into Constructs? If they fear the power of humanoid-hybrids, then why would they continue making them? 2
43 28 301 Rosetta There wasn't a choice. The Punishing Virus poses a terrifying threat. 1
44 29 301 Rosetta Corrupted invasions are rare for the ARU, but not nonexistent. We're far from safe... 1

48 30 301 1 Diana You could use ordinary machines to deal with the tide. If you can't defeat them, you can always just run. After all, the tide will eventually recede. 3
49 31 301 Diana That, however, is not an option for the Corrupted. So, there's no choice but to use Constructs... 3
50 32 301 Simon You're walking a fine line... Then how do you stop humanoid-hybrid frames from going "berserk?" 2
51 33 301 Diana As long as the frames are made more "human-like," it'll be fine—or so I've heard... But I'm afraid only the higher-ups know the technical details. 3

54 34 301 1 Rosetta The Arctic Route Union... has been, and is still trapped in the nightmare known as "Amberia". Everyone has lost hope. 1
55 35 301 Rosetta If we really can get rid of Amberia... The Forest Guards and the ARU as a whole can start looking toward the future. 1
56 36 301 Rosetta Commandant, sorry for asking you this right now—but will you help us bring an end to the nightmare that plagues this land? 1
57 1021 302 Of course. 37 That's what I've been doing. 38
58 37 1022 301 Rosetta Thank you. 1
59 38 1022 301 Rosetta Yes, you're right. 1
60 1022 201 1 500201
61 39 301 1 Simon Everyone, I found files on Amberia! 1
62 40 301 After searching for some time, Simon jumps in and interrupts your conversation. He points to some records on the screen showing Amberia's true form.

65 41 301 1 Atiel Can... can you still call her a humanoid-hybrid? 2
66 42 301 Your eyes are immediately taken by a figure with a tar-black mass for a lower body on the screen. Your skin crawls at the sight of her almost insectile hands and deconstructional mechanisms.
67 43 301 A giant woman is connected to the front of the black lower body. You roughly make out that this is a humanoid structure left to synchronize the M.I.N.D.
68 44 301 Yet, even this humanoid figure does not invoke relief. The bundles of installments and devices jutting out of her only serve to enhance its uncanniness.
69 45 301 Atiel This is too much... Even if she never went berserk because of some bug... to see herself become such a monstrosity... 2
70 46 301 ——You would definitely go mad.
71 47 301 The chamber remains silent, but the same thought lingers in everyone's mind.
72 48 301 Simon As long as the frames are made more "human-like," huh... But they... they've turned Amberia into a monster. 1
73 49 301 Reading through the data, you learn that the Forest Guard's Construct framework is a subsidiary form of the technology used to create Amberia.
74 50 301 Only intentionally downgraded.
75 51 301 Simon ...Anyway, the most important information is on the next page. 1
76 52 301 Simon could barely maintain composure at the grotesque figure on the screen. With an already pale face, he stifles his urge to vomit and scrolls to the next entry.
77 53 301 System Secret Entry 618—Code.
78 54 301 Here is a detailed account of Amberia's control system configuration. The final entry outlined the specifics on what exactly her code entailed.
79 55 301 Atiel The obsolete bionic series—Derek. It's voice is the code... 2

82 56 301 1 Diana Ah... 1
83 57 301 Rosetta The code is... Derek's voice? 2
84 58 301 Everyone finds their mouth agape. Except Simon, who, without a single clue, is waiting for someone's explanation.
85 59 301 RImgBg1Shake Bionic Machine ROAR!!!
86 60 301 A sudden roar of the bionics removes the room out of its reverie. Immediately following the roar, tremors from fracturing glaciers cause the room to tremble.
87 1027 302 What's going on outside? 61 Return to the base—NOW! 3000
88 61 62 301 Diana A horde of bionics are rushing ashore... Based on their direction, they seem to be targeting the residential regions! 1
89 62 301 1 AniZhuanchangBegin Rosetta They're targeting the residential regions this time... Commandant, we need to hurry back! 2
