【MASTER GARLO】 "Nay! Let me make this clear. You were the one tasked in the first place with setting that deadline. So why not? Why must we continue to sit here and let the days be bygone for the Lunar Society when they have not inched towards progress in the time before? They live in absolute squalor.

【LORD AKASA】 "My lord, surely you must see that the inevitability of a conflict on the Moon, within the vicinity of the Lunar Rabbits in their ruins-"【LORD SARAKHA】 "Is a cost I believe now would be worth the undertaking. Forgive my crassness, conscientious one, but the loss of the Invincible's fleet alongside Lord Thandir's Loka branes has made our situation unsustainable, we must not exhaust more of the Sword Land's resources meeting the Woldorian cavalry. We would be crippled, and in the eventuality that the Dark One may aim to attack the Time Axes and Multiversal Belt through Mutliplicity Events. The Moon Core Project holds value."【SCHEIRACHT】 "So then... shall I prepare the Lunar Retainers and mothballed equipment of forty fifth century Y.E.?"【LORD SARAKHA】 "At once. My lord? What is your command?"【EMPEROR】 "...It is time then. The experiment is hereby concluded. Reclaim the Moon and Lunar Society. Proceed with implementing the Moon Core Project at once."【MASTER GARLO】 "My lord. Will you appoint me to the task?"【SCHEIRACHT】 "I would prefer Ecules the Fist assigned to the task."【EMPEROR】 "No. Neither you nor the fist of judgment shall go. This is an administrative task that requires charisma... Akasa, you will dispatch and assign the Censorate to the Moon at once. Is that understood?"【LORD AKASA】 "Yes, my lord. I shall see to it."【EMPEROR】 "Then we are in agreement. This meeting is concluded. Return to your tasks."[Call ended]

Long ago, there was the almighty Xanthous Emperor, who, by his power, subverted the world into the world that was his own, creating this land below Heaven known as Hainei in which all would live and establishing the age of gods.In so doing, the Emperor anchored his world of Hainei to the Sun, which was one and the same as his Heaven, by laying down the tower of firmament of his law so named Axis Mundi. But unlike the world of old, there was yet no night under his eternal Sun so unmoving in the sky for which life should be soothed by, and so he grafted the Moon of eld into Hainei, allowing it to bring about the Night. The dark of nighttime was a comforting illusion, and a temporary absence of all sight of Heaven, and it was pushed and pulled by Dawn, which now teeters on the edge, as an impalpable blanket to the world.And the Moon was beautiful. It was a gem in the vacuum, engraved with Lunar Society. And long ago, in the year 3999, marking the end of the New Beginning and the start of the New Eternity, it was set afire and immolated by the Traveler of the Void, and now today is no more than dust of what had been, feuded over for by the rival gods of the Moon, Yutu the Jade Rabbit and Nio the Moon Man.

Because the Moon was what brought low the blanket of nighttime to the land, it could be said to be one of the greatest shadows in the world, unreachable by any conventional means. Yet, there remained one way to traverse the veil of Night to touch the body of dust and shadow; They were known as the Red Carpets. They were like glistening curtains invisible to the naked eye but showing themselves to the deeper sight. They were indeed the wavering ideational pathways to that testified space, and they were filled with the light of the Sun which bounced off the Moon's carcass in the eternally appended universe.When light touches the Moon, it becomes of that eidos, and thus no longer associated with the Sun, creating the darkening reverse of Moonlight. When the Moon was brightened by the Sun, Hainei was dark, and when the Moon was dark of the Sun's rays, Hainei was bright and the Night was well. Some yet speak of how the Red Carpets, when they become too filled with the Emperor's light, overtake the Moon, and it shines red in the Night, yet it is only witnessed in the land when the Mage God of Belkinsire reaches out to bring the Moon closer. This, they say, is when the Red Carpets are most traversable. One who does not have the explicit permission of god may travel the Red Carpet to set upon the Moon and step foot where space normally disallows.

Now, in the seventh month of the year 4999 YE of the New Eternity, the Evergoing Month. The unthinkable has happened, and the Red Carpets have opened three months in advance of the Mage God's day. And with their opening, many will converge upon the Moon now laid bare for that time that the Red carpets can be ridden upon. The time of great change is coming to the Moon, and the long pause of stagnation will lift at last.

In the Aristoteles Lunar City, the flats of the dusty plains were unsettled by the roaring cheers of its people before their idol.【YUTU】 "Today is a great day for all of Lunar Society, my fellow rabbits! Thanks to your continued efforts, and my guidance, the Mitchell Freeway is restored at last, and the crater's eastern rim grounds excavations have been completed! A new, flat surface is primed for further projects with all the waste and ruins that blocked our way cleared! More space for new buildings! Mileage on our restored roads! Everything! All thanks to you all, my precious buns!" «She proclaimed, raising her hands to the air to drink in and absorb their admiration deeper.»【YUTU】 «The idol raised her finger.» "But... by far, the most important thing of all is... with your continued labor, and the space freed up now, we finally have the perfect place for a new venue of life... a hotbed for happiness, where no strife can follow! That's right... I'm announcing it, here and now!" «She said, swinging her hands side to side in tune with the rhythm of her swaying hip. The idol spun, gesturing out far to the flattened dust beyond;» "The next hurdle! So get ready to wrestle with your tools, get ready to grease your elbows and break a sweat! Songs! Music! Talent!

But how exactly?" «Yutu had to ask, crossing her arms back at the next person to ruin her day.»【NAMITHENE】 «Namithene tilted her head only slightly.» "You mean you don't you feel it? I couldn't get here any other way, except through the Red Carpets. Lucky for me then, they just happened to 'open out of nowhere', huh? I'd have thought the moon gods could feel everything happening here."【YUTU】 «Yutu shook her head.» "Not how it works, sadly. It's more or less a formality for us. A mere title. My true inception has always been Gravity... the Moon itself is already akin to a being like us, so there's no need. But the Red Carpets... at this time of year? Now that's troublesome." «She looked down at the four Qilins-» "You got through and brought all this trash with you."【VIRINI】 "E-Even if they're open, most of us are too weak to get through that much light on our own, so we had to-cghuh! H-Hitch a ride on Nami's back..." «Said Virini, lifting her head and snifling from the dust in her nose.»【JANNUGOLA】 "My back hurts." «Jannugola said, content to stare into the vacuum above. Namithene lifted her chin to let out an amused laugh at their expense.»【NAMITHENE】 "Hahaha! But, it was pretty sick at first!"«Yutu's nose wrinkled. The Jade Rabbit unfurled her arms from their crossed gesture and raised a hand as if to shield her face, glowering behind it with the Trinitarian sneer at the sight of Namithene standing atop her own subordinates after carrying through thick and thin.»【YUTU】 "You're absolutely insane. I didn't think the Goddess of Love who lives in the shadows of our kingdom would be anything like you!" «She squeaked in disbelief.»【NAMITHENE】 «Namithene grinned.» "My personality is as flexible as Love for certain things can be. Right now, I'm all pumped up since I need to kick your ass, so excuse my crudeness. I'm usually more elegant than this~"【YUTU】 "And why challenge me anyway? There's no reason to conquer the Moon if you were looking for a spat or more territory. Not in this state!"【NAMITHENE】 "But that's exactly why we've got to fight. The Lunar Society's rough as this dust. Trinitarian deities are capricious, dear. You don't like listening to reason until you've been roughed up a bit yourselves. Obviously I'm not gonna say what I really mean right off the bat."【YUTU】 "An ulterior motive then."«Yutu squinted, thinking for a moment before she slowly allowed a smile to play upon her own lips as well.»

【YUTU】 "You might be a vacant headed fool but you're right that I have no reason to hear you out at all. It almost wraps back around to being wise. Maybe that foolishness is just another form of wisdom anyway." «Yutu sighed.» "Truly, you were one of us before..." «Yutu straightened her posture, hand at her hip as she lifted a finger, ready to take this seriously.» "Gladly then! I'll gladly accept your challenge!"【NAMITHENE】 "That's more like it!" «Namithene said, crackling her knuckle joints excitedly.»【YUTU】 «A vein throbbed upon the Rabbit's forehead.» "...But not at this time." «Her breath came out, shaky and low.»【NAMITHENE】 "Huh? Why's that?"【YUTU】 "FIGHTING WITH ME MUST BE A SPECIAL OCCASSION!" «She barked.» "Do you know how long it has been since the last time I've had to bring myself so low as to brawl like a common bruiser?! I've been rusty for so long, I've had to prepare especially, but the person I want to harm most is that... that idiot Nio! Think about it! What interest do I have in punching down to any thug who bursts up here and demands my attention?! No... I've taken measures to make it... glamourous! I went out of my way to repair the broadcasting technology across Lunar Society in the last century for this! My Rabbits must see me... they must anticipate it!"【NAMITHENE】 "So, you want to be dramatic about a fight?"【YUTU】 "I'm special! I need gratuity and you do as well! Without it... without my vision... you're a NOBODY up here!" «Yutu said, eyes wide, her smirk encasing her cheeks.»【KOIMARU】 "Ngh... she's this full of herself..."【VIRINI】 "I think I can see why Lunar Society is set back so much now..."【YUTU】 "IDIOT! IDIOT! IDIOOOTS~! You wouldn't get it! You wouldn't get me at all! WAHAA! Up here, I'm the star! Why should anyone else have to worry about me getting assaulted! That... is only for trash like you to experience!"«Namithene tapped her foot against the swell of Virini's thigh as she cupped her chin impatiently, yet ponderously. The gauntlet thrown is still down but it's become far more complex than that! There's still so much else that needs to be done as well but... maybe this can help, come to think of it. It's easy to see the Jade Rabhit's need for histrionics as getting in the way, but maybe this can be seen as a blessing too. Yeah! Those four had their jobs as well. Thinking on it, this lets Nio know that she means business as well.»【NAMITHENE】 "Alright. I'll bite. What needs to be done?"

Phase Alternating Chromatic Encoding system, to be the replacement package for analogue color systems in all refurbished televising screens in the Crater Cities. If I'm going to be witnessed by everyone, then you can go do me this favor and take the replacement package I've had prepared and deliver it to Copernicus and Clavius."【NAMITHENE】 "You want the other Crater City heads to notice as well."【YUTU】 "Naturally. That Nio over in Copernicus, and that new upstart in Clavius named Caera. I'll shine right through the broadcast, and lead the Rabbits they'd led astray back to me. I can do this... I'm the most beautiful woman in all the Milky Way Universe~..."【NAMITHENE】 "Then we're in agreement. I'll help you restore television to Lunar Society... and in return, I get to kick your ass LIVE on it."«Yutu snorts, rolling her eyes. Namithene hops off of Virini and Koimaru, allowing the two to stand and grab onto Zhun Gongzhu's legs in order to extricate him from the dirt. Both smiling wickedly at one another, Namithene and Yutu extended their hands, shaking on the promise to bruise one another later.»«But Yutu complained still about their landing destroying the excavation plot for her new concert building... another thing she believes she's entitled to. Jannugola rises from the dust at last with his cane, offering to mend this in the meantime for Namithene himself, claiming he would build it himself. It's suspect to Yutu, who had declared Qilins banned from the Moon, but even she won't look a gift Qilin in the mouth. As Namithene prepares to set out, she asks Zhun Gongzhu, Virini and Koimaru to head out and make an outreach to the Rabbits around. They all had their work cut out for them. If Yutu and Nio weren't going to help Lunar Society recover, then it was time to make them.»«With that, the gathering began to disperse.»«...»

DANMAKU COMBAT• Both the Player and Enemy have a set HP value and Graze Bank value, with a maximum cap on the Graze Banks. Attacks are made by rolling using your DAV (Damage Average Value) until one is defeated. The number rolled is the HP subtracted, whilst the rest of the number of sides to the die is accumulated in the Bank as missing Grazes (Ex. Roll 1d100, rolled 50, the other 50 goes to the Bank). Once the Cap is reached, that number is then taken as damage by either the Player or Enemy, and if on the last accumulation the Graze exceeds the Bank, that excess number will add to the damage taken as Bank Overflow.• Utilizing abilities can affect the flow of battle, either by directly affecting the Bank by means of lowering or heightening the Cap, increasing the DAV to gain more potential hits and Grazes landing or lowering it, or circumventing moves completely. Certain abilities might also last for a number of turns specified. By invoking a Symbol, the Enemy stands to gain a permanent affect or ability that must be taken down in the game of Hangman through deciphering the Symbol. If successfully deciphered, the Symbol will vanish. When selecting the Ability: Understanding to decipher a symbol, use the hint given by the enemy's invocation to correctly guess the deity they might be invoking by name in order to destroy the Symbol.• In battle, the Player can utilize Lives earned through choices in order to gain a second chance in the case of defeat.

Even if you get a "bad" roll, with enough Graze, you can keep up the heat on your enemies. And trust me, you will need to. It's important for you to watch out for any sudden abilities that might affect your Number of Rolls... restoring those won't be easy."【EIKN】 "Now, there's one more thing I want to tell you about."【NAMITHENE】 "Huh? What's with all these numbers on the screen, nan-nans?"【EIKN】 "These are called lanes, dear."• Graze Mode is not the only method of battle. The Player will also encounter Lanes Mode. In Lanes, the playing field will be divided into a set of spatial 'lanes' with percentage values that dictate the flow of Danmaku from rolls. (Ex. If you rolled 479 at an enemy in the 78% lane, they'd receive only 373 hits to their HP value). Grazing is notably absent from this mode. To excel, one must utilize the Lanes Mode specific abilities they are given to dictate the flow of Lanes in order to maximize output.【NAMITHENE】 "Seems tedious!"【EIKN】 "Nobody ever said it'd always be easy, little lamb! When you least expect it, an enemy could shake things up with some Lanes in order to use specific attacks. So, keep an eye out for that Psi (ψ). It'll flash to indicate if something is up."【EIKN】 "Well, that should be enough tutorial then! I'm sure you understand by now. I'm very proud of you as always!"«BATTLE WON»

I am depressed again.'«...is not an unusual thought to have.»«Across the Lunar ocean's highlands, Copernicus Crater's city stood the second largest of the three crater settlements that made the bulk of Lunar Society. In the highlands, amid the plains of the ocean of storms, many ruins could be found even outside the limits of the crater itself, scattered among the many companion craters encircling the highlands. Once, it would have been the sight of a large projects in its time, had things been different, and construction would have stretched so far, it would have likely lasted nearly into today.»«These highlands were windswept by gravitic fields carrying dust current through the ruins. Some elderly and adults, and some more responsible older Rabbit children could be seen lingering, but there were many younger children still running and playing even now despite everything. To Zhun Gongzhu, it didn't sit right with him. Even though their expressions were carefree and happy, he couldn't help but hold his jaw tight whenever he saw some rush to a slide, careless of how the dust they collected clung to their black school uniforms. Lots of these buildings were still torn down and collapsed, either from the distinct craters foretelling orbital targeting or gravitic ruptures long past. These children were surely the forebears of these highlands now.»【ZHUN GONGZHU】 'I don't much like it. It's reminding me of a... unwholesome nostalgia. To live this way as a child, not knowing much better... Was that how you once saw us, Ren?' «He got to thinking, and crossed his arms, watching the silhouettes of Rabbit children rush by his sides amid the rundown projects.» 'How long have they had to be in this squalor? Has it been like this since the very day of their reckoning? And these children, have they lived in The New Eternity like this? Has their parents? For so very long? And yet, being contented with it is hardly their faults. They were born different.'«Where does one start with the Rabbits? The Lunar Rabbits are easy to gain the attention of yet difficult to turn it inward. He watched as some kids swung from a swing, and others hopped along. In front of him, two of the Rabbit children stopped, looking up with some wonder at the sight of a Qilin man so different from themselves.»【ZHUN GONGZHU】 "...Hm." «His nose wrinkled under their curious stares.» '...It may be better to go into Copernicus itself, though I'd rather not cross paths with Nio at this time. But... will I mayhap be too strict for them?'

While I could indeed give you rides on my back... how have I assured you my plan was not to buck you off after and laugh?"«The Rabbit children scratch their noggins.

Silent and melancholy. The damages the dustone walls had suffered and subsequent caving of its aged roofs were not the result of the Wanderer's purging strikes, but rather the simple wear and tear of wind gradient kicked up by gravitic flux in the oceanic regions near Copernicus. The materials were scrounged up among the ruins. It is one thing built new that has stood sentinel despite the neglect.»【KOIMARU】 "Ah...

I'd really like to see it fixed up. In fact, that's more or less what I came here looking for! Some places in need of a hand getting a little patching up. I've seen a lot of places in the city, so I'm making a sheet of mental notes as I go. Just gotta handle one thing at a time."【PRELAYA】 "Hm...

Taifu, though, that rang a bell, somewhat.»【KOIMARU】 "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. But what exactly do you mean by 'looking into prayers'?" «Koimaru asked, raising said big eyebrows.»【PRELAYA】 "To divine some meaning from the Pantobarrels we have gathered. They are our ways of seeing Pantocrator's joy. We here at the Church of Pantocrator have dedicated ourselves for decades to studying these things that once crawled forth from the Dark Side."【KOIMARU】 "That sounds important. What's it mean?"【PRELAYA】 "Ah, nothing.

But many perished from not knowing where else to go but within the light. There were then a few who gained the idea that to avoid the light, which was incinerating everything it touched, they had to go where it was lightless, and so many decided to go to the Dark Side of the Moon.»«In the Dark Side, they got lost within the Shadow, and never returned for a while. In fact, they believed they would never be able to return ever again at all. In the Shadows, those Rabbits who fled the light were now pursued by things with jaws that bit hard and things that sought to pierce flesh. Their numbers dwindled, and they came to wish again so desperately for the light in which they could see.»«In that moment, something else in the Shadow heard their cries and wish to go back to the light, and came to shelter them with itself. The thing that loomed over them told them it would save them for its master, the Pantocrator, and became the light in which they could see with. More of them came. Under the body of these things calling themselves Pantocrator's servants, the Rabbits were able to flee the Dark Side, and return to the visible body of the Moon, escaping the Shadow.»«Yet, those things which sheltered them, when they came out of the Shadow itself, they shrunk, to the shape of cocoons, declaring that they were now in a place where they no longer could act or have meaning, and that this was no time for them anymore. Before they went silent, they said that one day the Shadow would cover Rabbits again, and they would be there to become their light once more.»«...»

But never so much to write a book with."【PRELAYA】 "That is the foundation of this Church. We have all gathered here, coming back to listen, because the Pantobarrels urged us to whenever possible. From them, we heard about the Pantocrator, who is suspended on eight-wings poised up high, and to look forward to the day in which he will come towards us. That is, the Day of Correction. He will come with his Angels."【KOIMARU】 "I see... That's quite the... story. Are any of the Rabbits who survived the Dark Side still around?"【PRELAYA】 "Yes. We all are those Rabbits. Including myself."【KOIMARU】 "Wait, really?!"【PRELAYA】 "Yes. It is a tradition we have carried on at the request of the Pantobarrels since the day we came back centuries before. Most Rabbits who come here, they do so because they have heard of what happens, and they too wish to experience this 'miracle'. They think they will be told advice, or amusing jokes. Some even come listening, expecting one of the Pantobarrels to simply say "hello" back. They do not... have as much understanding as they do imagination. But who will fault them?"【KOIMARU】 "So, you'll be here like this forever, because the barrel-things said to?"【PRELAYA】 "Is that strange? We were told it is what we should do. After having our lives saved, devotion is the least one could pay back. But even if those feelings have slowly faded into familiarity, as long as it pleases the Pantobarrels for us to continue, we shall be glad to do it until we drop dead."【KOIMARU】 «Koimaru looks to the floor.» 'So they also see it as an obligation...

The Crater City, previously on the road to progress under Nio's egregious micromanagement, was now brought to a state of calm in the midst of the opening of a large ravine in the middle of the crater. The central peaks, once standing high within the crater, have fallen down below into the churning grinder of the Lunar mantle's contractions and sudden expansions.»«Much of the new projects made to replace the withered old city had been swallowed by the ravines as well, on top of crucial building supplies. It seemed Nio had to move his station from the old town hall captured in the sinkhole to the rim of the Crater City.»«But why? What causes such a massive ravine to suddenly expand as a sinkhole in the Moon's crust? It wasn't even deep, yet all it had swallowed was already far below the surface...

So, your upgraded existence came from Woldor, yet your power depends on Bedolfir's rules... you wouldn't happen to have claimed one of his facets of Nature, would you?"«Nio seized up instantly, growling under his breath at the ever obscene Love Goddess.»【NIO】 "T'ain't none of your business, Namithene. However, your business is MY business if you're in my territory of the Moon." «He said, trying to regain a semblance of authority amidst his toiling frustrations and failure.» "Then out with it. What service have you come to pay to me? Another god from Hainei coming here is beyond standard.">"Wait now, you've piqued my interest. And now I'm not simply going to let it go.

>"I wonder though, is it tremors caused by the distorted gravity of the Moon? Or remnants of Gaizar's attack? How else do you explain the mantle straining like that?"【NIO】 "Even I can't explain it. But, you've seen the smokestacks, right?"【NAMITHENE】 "I assumed they might be buildings in the residential area caught afire..."【NIO】 "Nay. That's coming from the ravine itself. Those smokestacks shouldn't be possible, but the distorted gravity has allowed them to prosper... and it seems like something is... ignited below the surface, the crust itself."【NAMITHENE】 "Something... inside the Moon is burning?"【NIO】 "It's the only logical explanation. I was not here for it, but I believe that there are remnants of the Alien God still somewhere here on the Moon."«Namithene looked troubled at the notion...»«From what she'd heard of from the Psyops, the Alien God was rooted in Hainei, at the middle of Kalaheimr. It was apparently spreading its cells across the continent in order to create vents for the Leylines of Bedolfir. Could something similar be silently transpiring here on the Moon as well? Out of sight from where anyone could see? But how would that make sense? When the Alien God passed over the Moon on his way to Hainei, he totally razed it. There doesn't seem like there's any tactical advantage to leaving behind cells on the Moon and spreading its focus thinner.»

【NAMITHENE】 "So, has anyone thought of trying to open the Moon up to look down within?"【NIO】 "ARE YOU MAD?!" «Nio shuddered, as if burned.» "You can't do that! Nobody can! That would be a... a cardinal sin! The Moon is one of the most sacred objects to the world! We only have one! Do you understand? If it were to somehow be damaged even more and lost... I don't think it could be replaced at all!" «Nio trembled.» "And I have a stake here too! I forbid it, absolutely forbid it! There will never be any further compromising to the Moon's crust just to search for something that exists only in theory..."【NAMITHENE】 «Namithene huffed.» 'There goes his anxiety again... perhaps what he's really afraid of is if he even could pull it off himself. I know he's afraid of his own choices. Muna told me as much, this man third guesses himself on everything. He probably truly believes it, but he's scared he might unleash something horrible...' «Namithene looked to the floor momentarily.» 'Still, he is right. It's only a theory, if a plausible one. I still don't see what use the Moon has to the Alien God at this point. It could be something else. Perhaps a rebound of the Sun's light that somehow got captured in the ravine?'【NAMITHENE】 'More confirmation is needed...'>"Wait now, you've piqued my interest.

【NIO】 "You've still yet to tell me your business on my Moon."【NAMITHENE】 "Hold up! I'm getting to that! But you know, you really piqued my interest And I'm just gonna let that go, I'm a nosey girl after all~"«Nio let out a groan of increasing frustration.»【NAMITHENE】 "I just gotta know. How exactly does it work that Woldor can simply give you a sphere from Nature? Was it one he plundered in his battle against Bedolfir?"【NIO】 "Nay. It was one he had on hand long before. In the time that the Frost Giantess still walked the earth, trading these things with Bedolfir was not uncommon, and Woldor and Eikn had traded for a good deal of Archetypes descended from Nature."【NAMITHENE】 "So, he just had those on hand, huh? How convenient of that sly old goat. Which one did he implant into you?"【NIO】 "MUST you know, you harpy?!"【NAMITHENE】 "Hmhmhm... so it's a point of contention for you."«Nio grit his teeth. Namithene simply looked happy in her badgering, her grin wide. She held her fingers up, all five of them, over her mouth, fanning herself. Little did she let these things go when in the Love for Gossip and hearsay. The Love of Learning.»【NIO】 "Kch... gchk...! If I tell you, will you spit it out on your turn already?!"【NAMITHENE】 "I make no promises~ But you ought to know that when a woman wants to know something, it's only proper for a man to tell her, Nio."【NIO】 "Fine... it's not like it matters anyway, my sphere is meaningless on the Moon. Fine, you damn harpy, I'll give you your satisfaction of knowing."«Nio raised his hand, and it seemed for a moment like his flesh and clothing alike were peeling aside, turning inside out along his arm and clavicle, running up his neck and face. Along these corded inversions, his body transformed into something green and lush, like veins of mossy plant flesh and organs. Where along his arm the sprouts twisted into stems, flowers began to spread, like a virus across the form. Berries prospered on his cheek, and fragrant petals flaked off along with the pollen roused from his skin.»【NIO】 "I was given a Divine Promotion from Woldor and made the Archetype of growth in Nature. I'm the Flower God, in truth. I'm the colorful sprout upon the grass, the organ of Nature's resource. Look at me, you harpy. This is what I really am. I'm flowers. All of them. I'm the color in Hainei's skin."

But from what I gander, he wanted me to cover the Moon in Flowers. And, well, so long as I'm up here, I'm out of harms way. I can safely guarantee that Flowers will never fade in Hainei even from up here. Think about how many people down there want to take that color out of the world. They'd just need to clip me. But good luck getting up here to do that."【NAMITHENE】 "Makes sense to me... But to think, you're Flowers... and look at all those pretty roses on you..."«This, it seems, might be an unexpected advantage. Now, if there was just a way to bring a Leyline or something to the Moon, so that he could affect the body of it... If there was, he could have filled that ravine with Flowers, or just turned whatever fuel is burning down there inside the Moon into Flowers to neutralize it. It's quite a versatile ability, actually...»【NIO】 "Now, you damn harpy, it's your turn.">"I'll cut to the chase then.

Yutu would never hand it out to me when I asked, you... what do you mean you're going to... face Yutu?! What are you talking about, Namithene?!"【NAMITHENE】 "Exactly like I said. I've come to the Moon to fight Yutu. You don't have to understand yourself, but it's something that has to be done, and frankly, it's for the both of us."«Nio's face hardened.»«Or rather, it was like it scrunched it. Namithene had never seen such a sneer formed in her life, such a strange way to grit one's teeth like how he did now. It was surprising.»«Nio's fist clenched so hard, pollen was pouring from it.»【NIO】 "DON'T JOKE AROUND WITH ME!" «He suddenly roared.» "There's nothing in this situation that calls for violence! Who do you think you are, Namithene?! You're overstepping yourself! Yutu may be a snotty brat... but she wouldn't hurt a fly! None of the Rabbits would!"【NAMITHENE】 "Oh? But she seemed rather intent on fighting back against me for crashing her little parade a while ago..."【NIO】 "What did you do?!"【NAMITHENE】 "Nothing too much, but she's awful hasty to build her concert now. After all, I got the Red Carpets to open just for this occasion."«Nio looked paler than usual.»«This boy... he really did care for them. Even if one could easily tell he had his frustrations with Yutu as his rival, he became incredibly defensive over the Rabbits easily, and even Yutu herself. He's grown attached, hasn't he? It had to be more than his anxiety speaking this time.»【NIO】 "Listen here, you harpy! Yutu is my conflict! We made a promise, when I first arrived here! The Moon would be won through effort alone! Not for anymore childish quarrels than has been had yet! If you think you'll dominate the Moon by beating us..."【NAMITHENE】 "Hmhm~! Now listen to yourself.

Facing the facts is the first step to self-improvement, but Yutu is too blind to even see herself right now. Must be all that glamor she drowns herself in. Now you, Nio, I know you're rather protective because of how you feel... but fighting with me isn't the right option right now. Isn't it true that fighting her is the only way you can get her to change her mind? She can't even accept that the Trinity has abandoned her."【NIO】 "...That is...!"【NAMITHENE】 «Namithene sighed.» "Look, you would have had to do it yourself eventually. But you have no power to oppose the Naked Singularity right now. So, I'm also doing this for your good, and to help us get on the same page already."【NIO】 "..."«Nio looked like he wanted to crouch down and shield himself from Namithene's gaze... The Flower God seemed as if he wanted to shrivel and hide, or perhaps run away. But he clutched both hands tighter, so tight that the knuckles went white, and he took a step forward, a small tear in both of his eyes. He absorbed the moisture right back into his skin.»【NIO】 "...The Lunar Rabbits are a people who know no war... They aren't truly fit to be Woldor's subjects, and I... I don't want them to face war of any kind... So if you want to make war on Yutu, then... Then you'll have to win that right, by winning a war against me!"«Nio suddenly lashed out, grabbing Namithene by her jacket collar.»【NIO】 "And while I'm against hitting a woman... I still have to try and stop you! P-Powerless or not!"«Nio's determination was building in the face of his fears of failure and mistakes.»【NAMITHENE】 "Well now... this is unexpected..." «She smiled.» 'The kids got some marbles after all... but he's still failing to understand quite a lot...

You poor little boy, I'm only trying to save you the trouble of fighting Yutu yourself. When I'm done, nobody on the Moon will have to struggle anymore, and we can all set aside our differences. So, come now, you poor little overworked flower boy. Won't you just sit back and let Nami take care of things~?

And trying to sweet talk your way over me using Lady Eikn's name... Now I'm just mad! I couldn't trust you to begin with, but you're clearly planning something, Namithene!"【NIO】 "As God of the Moon of Woldoria... I...

Maybe appealing to honor would have been smarter, I could have told him he was intruding on the honor I've sworn to with Yutu but...

Fine, but you know the rules, and so do I~"【NIO】 "Beat me, and I'll submit. But don't think I'm totally powerless!

Rabbits don't come by much anymore. I guess they got a lotta work to do in Aristots'... So I just mostly spend my days waiting here until customers show up, and play pinball. I guess resources also has got something to do with it."【ZHUN GONGZHU】 "Is the shortages in Aristoteles becoming critical?"【MR. CALHUEY】 "Most of it is funneled to support the projects supervised by Yutu. We grow our produce using old facilities left behind by Eden. Look at it this way, if Aristots' has got the most tech and infrastructure... and Copernicus has got the most population... then Clavius has got the most farms."【ZHUN GONGZHU】 "Then you must secure expansion to Clavius in order to rejuvenate your stock."【MR. CALHUEY】 "Well, that's one idea, and you might have noticed, with the way my building is shaped, I actually wanted to make a franchise. I dunno why, but my dream is to... make a really great chain restaurant to bring the peeps together with!"【ZHUN GONGZHU】 "And the problem is...?"【MR. CALHUEY】 "Well, uh. I'm uh... I'm scared of Caera. She doesn't really like us Pure Rabbits... She kicked out most of the Pure Rabbits in Clavius when she took control, so she only wants the Common Rabbits. Something about uh... us Pure Rabbits being less sensitive to Spiritua and the Magics."«Zhun looked troubled, and his expression hardened visibly under the weight of Calhuey's admission. A Rabbit trying to sow division between the longstanding placid Lunar Rabbits by breed? This was unheard of... The Lunar Rabbits are known to be utterly desensitized to prejudice and conflict. So how could one of their own gain such an idea?»【ZHUN GONGZHU】 "I see... I am... terribly sorry to hear that."【MR. CALHUEY】 "Ah... you're a real one, cool cat. But it ain't your fault. If the boss of Clavius says leave, I guess it's better to just leave. I wouldn't try promoting there again to make a second establishment unless I had help."

【NAMITHENE】 "Yeah... I did. So, would you like to tune in to the 'Yutu Smackdown' show any time soon?"«Caera looked startled by the sudden proposition. Namithene honestly thought she was going to be bustling at the admission of her intentions.»【CAERA】 "You want to fight Yutu..." «Caera asked. When Namithene nodded, she winced.» "That's a bad idea."【NAMITHENE】 "Oh? You're afraid of her?"【CAERA】 "I'd be stupid not to be. Fighting her is not something that could be done easily if you could convince her to earnestly retaliate. I only needed to take one look at her to know that beating her is outside the realm of my possibilities, and I channel Man Over God. It's how I survived the stuff I've been through..."«The same sublimation of Human strength that Sivil the Pride imbibes. Imagine her workout routine, especially if all that power is in the legs. Noted and filed away...»【CAERA】 "I came to a standstill with Yasomagatsuhi in the depths, but hitting Yutu is out of the question. Tell me, your senses are better than mine, so haven't you noticed how empty the space she occupies seems when you look at her?"【NAMITHENE】 "Empty? Yeah, come to think of it, you're right. It does seem like she's not even there... and you wouldn't be able to tell if she wasn't so loud and gave herself away."【CAERA】 "Then you might already guess, but if you hit her, it's going somewhere else that isn't her. That's all I can guess. I don't know anything more, the mechanics are too complex..."«Going somewhere else? Well, Yutu is living gravity... Is it perhaps a quantum equation she employs to achieve inviolability? It would make sense. But Gravity draws in. It doesn't send things places, usually...»【NAMITHENE】 "I'll keep it in mind. Everything you said, in fact."«Caera crosses her arms and gazes long to the side, frowning.»【CAERA】 "Just don't get it mixed up. It's not like I want to demean others. It's not like I want to be a big bitch. You have to understand... My strength I found, I'll lose it if I feel the way I really want to feel."【NAMITHENE】 "So you haven't mastered it."【CAERA】 "It must be because I'm still Rabbit, even if I'm Human. So of course I can't become Man Over God, never truly. If that makes you want to beat my ass too, so be it."«Caera reaches up and brushes her palm across her eyes roughly. She clears her throat and resumes her forced smile.»【CAERA】 "I'll take it. You can give me PACES. I'll tune in... and hope you can succeed, at least. She needs it, even if it's not likely to lay a hand on her."【NAMITHENE】 "Fair deal. I'll hold you to it, Caerbear."【CAERA】 "Hmph. We're not in the nicknames area of familiarity yet, Rebellious one."«Namithene gave over the package to PACES, completing her objective from Yutu. With this upgrade, everyone in Lunar Society will pretty much be able to tune in just like Yutu wanted.»«...»

«Now, the only step was to actually go and kick Yutu's ass as promised. First, better check in with Jannugola and see his effort on the concert that he swore to build for Yutu, and then regroup with the others.»«Namithene gave Caera a tiny salute as she prepared to disembark. But, just as she turned and prepared to take flight, she snapped her fingers, drawing the Earth Rabbit's glare once again.»【NAMITHENE】 "I know you're not gonna open up about a lot of things I'd rather be asking right now, but I think there's something just ambiguous enough that you'd feel comfortable telling me. So, really, at least can I know... who is it you're after?"【CAERA】 "..."«Namithene's hands fell back to her sides.»【NAMITHENE】 "I know you know about Night." «She said lowly.» "And we both know what Night leads to."【CAERA】 "..."«Caera looked off to the walkway underfoot, stiffened.»【CAERA】 "If I tell you, it'll sound really stupid."【NAMITHENE】 "Honey, it involves Night. Of course it's going to be stupid."«Caera winced, gritting her teeth. She lifted her head, as if mentally preparing for whatever lambast she was about to receive.»【CAERA】 "Alright, then I won't be vague with you. I am after someone, someone who I think has hurt me more than anything else I've been through since, and it might have been rather obvious from the start when I drug this piece of Eden up here, or told you I was from it. You know, back then, it was so much simpler for me. I was a maid, I worked in the Earl estate, I tended to these hedge rows and... and I saw them sinking, and then I went down with it, trying to go claw in the mud after him when he decided to bury himself."

I want to kill him, Namithene, the one who sunk my home. I want to take out Lord Sarakha, and I want to do it using Night."【NAMITHENE】 "...You don't know what you're getting into. Night won't work. Not on him."【CAERA】 «Caera drove herself to grin, even as her eyelids nearly squeezed out tear droplets as she raised her hands in the triumphant gesture she reflected how she wished to feel using. Her cheeks were red, but more from the inner turmoil and ride or die poison in her head than any satisfaction she gains talking of her goal.» "I've come too far to stop myself now, you know. I'm not gonna give up on this one last shot I have. It's the only thing I have left to do with my life. There's literally nothing else worth living for... but, if one could succeed in bringing that dragon down... then maybe time might break just enough that what he's done doesn't make a difference anymore."【NAMITHENE】 "You can't bring it back."【CAERA】 "FUCKING WATCH ME TRY." «Caera gasped out.» "Just watch me... just... watch me. I've got something... I've got... something."【NAMITHENE】 "...Well, alright." «Namithene sighed through her nostrils.» "You know he's got one of the Super Truths, right?"【CAERA】 "...?"【NAMITHENE】 "...'The Voice All Hear'... it's a Truth that doesn't even require him to provide reasoning or startup argumentation for the context. It just applies. You can only destroy time if you're on that level. If The Voice All Hear says you failed, then... you did."【CAERA】 "Context, huh..." «Caera spits at the ground.»«There was no point saying anymore about it. Namithene just nodded stoically, and her wings unfolded to take the flight out. Caera followed her just long enough until she saw the Goddess of Love good and far off then. Namithene definitely felt it when Caera fell back to sit on the stones, but she didn't see anymore than that as she raced off from Clavius Crater City.»«Just silently swearing to come back soon and get this sorted out... all before the poor girl goes and tries to do that stupid thing she's set her mind to.»«...»

Though, they were remiss to find that Koimaru was not among them. When they questioned one another, Virini said she got a message from Koimaru, saying that he chose to remain out longer to investigate something important, and not to worry about him. He added in the message, "I'll be fine, I mean it"... It does little to stifle the feeling in their guts.»【VIRINI】 "So Caera is just trying to work towards achieving an impossible goal like that out of grief... She thinks that by taking revenge on Sarakha, Time will shatter and she can see those she misses again... Poor girl..."【ZHUN GONGZHU】 "It is a dangerous motive. And it makes sense why she pushes others away, such as the Pure Rabbits. She wants to keep the number of people she has to abuse for her goal to a minimum, and that only worsens how she feels for plotting to use the Common Rabbits, but the ends justifies the means... She is uniquely awakened from her trauma to Man Over God."【NAMITHENE】 "I can't let her go through with it. I know what she's thinking..."【JANNUGOLA】 "What is so significant about Night that it could oppose Sarakha in her eyes?"【NAMITHENE】 "Listen, you guys... The Moon is the God of Death. Or at least, you can liken it to that. There is no God who rules Death, but the Moon is a bringer of it."【VIRINI】 "Of... of Death?!"【NAMITHENE】 "The Night is the deepest darkness in Nature, not like the deepest darkness in Humanity that was sealed away a long time ago. In darkness dim enough, Death is present. This object here is part of Bedolfir's rigging. What I'm saying is... the Moon is Bedolfir's Death Knell. It's a mass capable of summoning Death proportionate to Nature, in other words, to the entire universe. That much Death... it could probably kill Sarakha, but it would never be able to reach him. Caera likely wants to turn the Moon into a suicide bomb against the Axis Mundi, that's why she wants Rabbits to go to Earth again."【ZHUN GONGZHU】 "She doesn't know the kind of fire she's playing with..."【JANNUGOLA】 "But if the Moon is Bedolfir's, then Nio's powers, given he has a domain from Bedolfir... Unless, Nature is just that complex. Flowers can't grow on the Moon because of a lack of Leylines..."【NAMITHENE】 "Leylines are just the growth cell of Nature. If stars had them, greenery could grow there, despite the heat. Still, it makes me wonder what Woldor's planning. He didn't send Nio to the Moon to shape into a better man for nothing..."【VIRINI】 "So, we have to save Caera somehow, before she really hurts herself... and Nio, we have to help him do better too."【NAMITHENE】 "That's what we promised we'd do."«...»
