Go back.
0:31
Good morning, Sam.
0:33
I understand that your room didn't
0:34
suffer any major damage.
0:37
Unfortunately, the rest of the DH Jellin
0:40
wasn't so lucky.
0:43
The ship is unable to travel in its
0:45
current state, but Tommen's doing his
0:47
best to get us back in action. I'm about
0:50
to leave to pick up some supplies for
0:51
repairs. When you're ready to head out,
0:54
I suggest you head to the bridge and get
0:56
Tarman to brief you on the situation.
0:59
Afterwards, check the ship's delivery
1:01
terminal to find out which part of the
1:03
continent you'll need to link up next.
1:06
The show must go on after all.
1:53
The entire crew is working hard to get
1:55
the ship in working order. So, let's
1:58
follow their lead and do what we have to
2:00
do.
2:07
So, operations at the Eastern
2:10
Environmental Observatory are managed by
2:13
just one man all alone in the mountains.
2:17
must be terribly stressful to survive in
2:20
such extreme conditions. You cannot
2:23
afford to let despair take root in your
2:25
heart. Hope is an indispensable asset.
2:30
Not to downplay the benefits of the
2:32
cargo you brought, but the truth of the
2:33
matter is that it won't make a
2:35
difference for him that quickly. But
2:37
what no doubt served to give him
2:39
immediate comfort was the presence of a
2:42
helpful soul. You, Sam. Porters can be
2:46
bearers of light for those struggling in
2:48
darkness.
2:50
He'll not soon forget what you've done,
2:52
nor the warmth that filled his heart
2:54
when you arrived.
2:57
Sam, about that ghost mech we saw
3:00
carrying what appeared to be a coffin on
3:02
its back. I wonder if that coffin was
3:06
somehow connected to the beach.
3:08
I distinctly felt the presence of the
3:11
dead from within its armor. If you could
3:14
deal a blow powerful enough to bypass
3:16
its defenses, it might be enough to stop
3:19
it in its tracks. Failing that, you
3:22
could always concentrate your attacks on
3:24
a single location on its body.
3:29
Ah, yes. I heard what Victor Frank said
3:31
about your BB pod. You used to have a
3:35
different keychain attached to it in the
3:36
past.
3:45
Igor. Ah, yes. The corpse disposal team
3:49
member that was caught in the void out
3:51
with you that time. I see now. The
3:54
keychain was a momento to remember him
3:56
by.
3:58
I've been mulling over the words Victor
4:00
said to you earlier. He's gone, but he
4:03
still feels so close.
4:06
There's a universal truth in that
4:08
sentiment. The closer we are to people
4:11
when they're alive, the stronger the
4:13
bond we forge with them in our hearts.
4:16
No matter how much time passes, I still
4:19
feel her presence.
4:22
My daughters, no doubt you feel the same
4:25
about Lou.
4:27
You know, Sam, I was just thinking. I
4:31
saw that you received EX capture
4:33
grenades from the metagenomicist.
4:35
to think that the parasitic chyro
4:38
microbes you brought her could be
4:39
repurposed to infect and birth variant
4:42
BTS in such a manner, namely by
4:45
combining BT crystals with your own DNA
4:48
to produce BT cores. If this is indeed
4:51
true, it's a truly incredible discovery.
4:55
You have to test this theory at the
4:57
earliest opportunity, Sam. I'm eager to
5:00
see what happens.
5:03
You know, Sam, I was just thinking you
5:06
and Neil Vana have a stronger connection
5:09
than I realized.
5:16
There must be some reason why he keeps
5:18
appearing before you in that mysterious
5:20
realm. Admittedly, while we've only seen
5:23
a few pieces of the larger puzzle, it
5:26
may lead to discoveries you might
5:28
struggle to accept. Nevertheless, I
5:31
commend you for your courage in facing
5:33
your past head on thus far. I say this
5:37
with the utmost sincerity.
5:40
Ah, yes. When you consume a chronobiote,
5:44
your perception of the world around you
5:46
dramatically slows down for a brief
5:48
period. It's not hard to imagine why
5:51
that'd be beneficial in the middle of a
5:53
fight. You'd have a much easier time
5:56
lining up your shots, and you'd see
5:57
enemy attacks coming long before they
6:00
had a chance to hit you. I'm reminded of
6:02
the difference in the passage of time
6:04
experienced when we're on the beach. It
6:07
stands to reason that both phenomena
6:10
might be caused by microbes from the
6:12
beach and their effects on our bodies
6:14
when ingested.
6:17
Neil Vana, a porter employed by Bridges,
6:21
a man not unlike yourself, it would
6:23
seem. But why did he appear in that
6:26
so-called Nirvana, or rather that realm
6:29
of the dead? And then there's the fact
6:31
that he clearly spoke Lou's name. If we
6:34
have another opportunity to visit that
6:36
mysterious realm, then perhaps we can
6:39
get some answers.
6:41
Ah, yes. The times we've encountered
6:44
Nevana.
6:46
The first was amidst flames and the
6:49
second was in what seemed to be flood
6:51
ravaged ruins. Now I believe that you
6:55
were previously transported to a realm
6:58
not unlike a battlefield. The places we
7:01
found ourselves in are similar in that
7:03
they were the sightes of disasters. This
7:06
is just a theory, but it could be the
7:08
case that what we've seen is a
7:10
reflection of Neil's mental state. He
7:13
may have been a firstirhand witness to a
7:15
terrible tragedy which left a lasting
7:18
mark on him.
7:20
I don't really have anything else to
7:22
say, right?
