()<Speaker></Speaker>||<黑屏2><Night><BIN>18</BIN>:...Outside the Great Palace, the Summer Garden.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<SE1>RunStep</SE1>:Erma dashes through the darkness, heedless of her surroundings, until she reaches the entrance of the Great Palace.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<SE1>ClothingUp</SE1><BGM>GF_2022_Summer_AVG_2</BGM>:She is searching for the door when she feels Natalie's hand on her shoulder.
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:Lady 0, why the long face?
Erma(28)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)||:I'm not Lady 0. +I'm Erma.
Erma(28)<Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:As you wish, Lady Erma.
Erma(27)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)||:I want to leave this place.
Erma(27)<Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:Lady Erma, once the Great Palace is activated, you cannot leave unless it shuts down on its own.
Erma(28)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:I don't care. I'm leaving. Right now.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<SE1>AVG_20Winter_Drink_Tea</SE1>:Natalie smiles at Erma's tantrum and offers her some honey water and pastries.
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:You have a long journey ahead of you. Please fill your belly and rest up before you set off.
Erma(26)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:...I'll take a few bites since you're being so understanding.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||:Natalie's smile is as perfect and kind as ever.	
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:Lady Erma, why have you come here?
Erma(27)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:... +<color=#00CCFF>For the Commander...</color>
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<SE1>ClothingUp</SE1>:Tears well up in Erma's eyes. She puts down her glass of sweet honey water.
Erma(28)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:I've been wandering on my own for a very long time, until I encountered my new companions and a purpose. +But it just dawned on me that nobody actually cared much about me.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||:Natalie continues to smile.
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:Then what do you want to do, Lady Erma?
Erma(28)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:I wanted to... save the Commander and my companions. +But now I just want to get out of here and return to my wandering. +I've had enough of trying to please everyone. They can hate me all they want!
()<Speaker></Speaker>||:Erma's sobs contradict her bitter words.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<SE1>ClothingUp</SE1>:Natalie produces a handkerchief and dabs it lightly on Erma's face.
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:Lady Erma. +It pains me to see you feeling so wretched. Why don't we play a prank together?
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:In fact, what do you think of destroying this world together?
Erma(30)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:...Huh?
Erma(30)<Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:If the most important person is not around anymore, the world has no meaning, right? +Instead of bearing this unfathomable pain all alone, wouldn't it be much easier if it is shared equally by everyone? +Why don't we all disappear?
Erma(30)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)||:...
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:Is that what you're thinking, Lady Erma?
()<Speaker></Speaker>||:Erma shakes her head uncomprehendingly.
Erma(31)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:No, that hasn't crossed my mind at all.
Erma(31)<Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:Really? That's a shame. +One of the earlier Lady Ermas had such thoughts.
Erma(31)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)||:... +Do you also want me to be her?
Erma(31)<Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:Who you are doesn't matter to me, Lady Erma.
Erma(31)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:...
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:The Natalie in the present is just the Natalie at a certain point in time. +Human or Doll, we can only express how we are feeling at the present moment.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<SE1>ClothingUp</SE1>:Natalie bends down and picks up her serving tray. In Erma's eyes, her figure leaves streaks of shadows behind her, like animation frames.
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:These memories and data are all so clear in your eyes. +So whether you wish to save or destroy this place, you have my full support.
Erma(30)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:... +What about the original Natalie?
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:...Like Lady Erma, she has lost some very important memories. +But while Lady Erma's amnesia is genuine, the original Natalie was just pretending—masquerading as an ordinary maid.
Erma(30)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)||:Do you remember then?
Erma(30)<Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:Of course I do, but none of that matters.
Erma(30)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)||:Why?
Erma(30)<Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:If a person only has one painful experience in her life... +She will never forget it. The pain will be etched forever in her heart. 
Erma(30)<Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:But if a person has lived through countless pain and suffering... +Then she will be more impervious to pain. She will lose the capacity to love as well as to hate. +She will be numb to it all.
Erma(30)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:...
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:So the ability to forget is not necessarily a bad thing, Lady Erma.
Erma(31)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)||:... +Who are you, really?
Erma(31)<Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:Would you like to take a guess?
Erma(31)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)||:...
Erma(31)<Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Natalie</Speaker>||:How about a hint, Lady Erma?
Erma(27)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>;NPC-Maid(1)||:I've had too many people and things thrown in my face today. +I can't really process it all.

Erma(25)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:You may now return to the subject.
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>;Erma(25)<Position>0,155</Position>||:I think I know who Natalie is. +The Doctor would only keep his own Dolls around him. +With one exception.

NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>;Erma(30)<Position>0,155</Position>||:A human with whom he didn't know what to do. +A human that didn't serve him, rather, one that served us.

()<Speaker></Speaker>||:Natalie's perfect smile does not falter.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||:But the name on her badge quietly morphs from "Natalie" to "Catherine Ponzi".
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker>||:As expected of Lady 9.
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>||:Why... I'd understand if you'd just changed your hairstyle, but why put on a completely different persona?
NPC-Maid(1)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker>||:Then let me change back to a face more familiar to you... +The best thing about being in the virtual Summer Garden is the ability to change your appearance with just a snap of your fingers, don't you think?
()||<黑点1><SE1>AVG_keyboardtype_sci</SE1>:
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<黑点2><SE1>ClothingUp</SE1><BGM>BGM_Empty</BGM>:The maid standing before them is replaced... by a younger, more vivacious woman. +A woman who was present in the anchor points they had visited earlier.
NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||<BGM>GF_2022_Summer_AVG_4</BGM>:You have both forgotten many things. +But I honestly don't see it as a bad thing.
Erma(27)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>;NPC_PP90(3)<Position>0,200</Position>||:So what on earth happened here?
Erma(27)<Position>0,155</Position>;NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:You can't always succeed on your first try, Lady Erma. +Which is why Doctor Hume created more than one of you.
Erma(25)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:...
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>||:We are already aware of the connection between Doctor Hume and the Fox Sisterhood, but why did you stay in the Summer Garden?
NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:That's a very long story.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<SE1>ClothingUp</SE1>:Catherine walks over to a small table in the corner and pulls out two chairs for Erma and Reinette.
NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:After Maggie died, Doctor Hume followed her instructions and found me, who was utterly lost without Maggie. +He brought me with him to Moscow, where he worked for some secret organization. +I don't know what he was working on exactly. All I know is that the organization he was working for started falling apart, and he regained his freedom.
NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:It's miraculous how Doctor Hume never seemed to change no matter what terrible things had happened in the world.
Erma(27)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:Mother was close to immortal...
NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:Yes, and he never stopped working on Project "Pilot Whale". +I once asked him what exactly was Project "Pilot Whale". +He told me it was the future of humankind—genuine "immortality".
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>||:Why do humans pursue immortality?
NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:As Dolls, you probably can't conceptualize what immortality means to humans. +Everlasting life is a real miracle to us. +I was overjoyed back then.
Erma(30)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:You also wanted this miracle?
NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:Yes. +He promised me that Maggie would come back if his research was a success.

NPC_PP90(4)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:But... he failed. +Again and again. Again and again. We'd lost count how many times. +Only after meeting genuinely gifted people did I realize he... just got lucky.
()<Speaker></Speaker>||<SE1>ClothingUp</SE1>:Catherine lets out a sigh of melancholy.
NPC_PP90(4)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:He had unbelievable luck and talent that did not live up to such luck. +So he shared all his research materials.
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(4)<Position>0,200</Position>||:"Human Intelligence Research"...
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:Until someone else succeeded. That's when I finally found out what he'd been trying to achieve... +He said he could die happy now that he knew it worked.

NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(3)<Position>0,200</Position>||:We are his precious creations. Did he not have any plans for where we'd go?
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||<BGM>BGM_Hume_ImFutue_Main</BGM>:...Did I not make myself clear? +You think a man as absentminded as that would bother making arrangements that didn't concern him?
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>||:...
NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:He... didn't leave any inheritance for you to discover. +He never even thought about anything outside of Project "Pilot Whale". +He didn't care about the sisters in the Sisterhood or his friends. +He considered his life work completed the moment he set eyes on the "Spring", which was born out of "GRCh38".
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(3)<Position>0,200</Position>||:...So?
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:So we got left behind. +We didn't matter to him. +He didn't spare us even a thought.
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(3)<Position>0,200</Position>||:...He didn't want to resurrect himself?
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(4)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||<SE1>ClothingUp</SE1>:...The world is chaos. +Countless people toiled in search of an answer, only to realize that nobody actually cared about the answer. +Funny, isn't it?
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(4)<Position>0,200</Position>||:...What you mean is... he wasn't at all concerned about what he left behind. +They could just sit here where he left them, or someone could take them for all he cared. +In fact, not only did he not care about us, he didn't really care about himself either.
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:Indeed. He cared for no one. +That included himself.
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(3)<Position>0,200</Position>||:... +Then why did you bring us here?
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:...Me? +I'm just living up to my name as a professional con artist.
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>;NPC_PP90(3)<Position>0,200</Position>||:...What do you mean?
NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:Project "Horn of Hope" can come true.
Erma(27)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:Does something that can come true still count as a con?
NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:A truth that can be proven but can never be reached. +Doesn't that make the perfect con?
NPC_Stevens520(1)<Speaker>Reinette</Speaker><Position>0,60</Position>||:I'll never understand how the human brain works.
Erma(27)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:Do you also want me to become one with that weirdo King?
NPC_PP90(3)<Speaker>Catherine Ponzi</Speaker><Position>0,200</Position>||:Well, the two of you becoming one actually forms the key that would open the "Spring". +Every time you lose your memory was just a data upload. +The data, all was saved right here in the Summer Garden, with "Her Majesty the King". +She doesn't have your freedom, but she bears all of your pain and suffering.
Erma(27)<Speaker>Erma</Speaker><Position>0,155</Position>||:... +This technology of splitting a being into two halves... rings a bell... +Aliana... Amaris... +Maggie said that the latest edition of Arthur Hume's "Human Intelligence Research" was sold to a woman. Who was she?
