::So, in an abandoned and severely damaged part of the Barian World, presumably near the center of it, you can find Koyo trying to get a half damaged computer operational. And it doesn't seem to be progressing well.::

... Well, then, I don't want to just move the Barian World.

I want to try. And repair it. Even just a tiny bit, if that's all we can do.

Do you mind me trying?

[all_for_not]

... I don't mind you trying, as long as you allow me to help.

I'd love to see our world restored, even if it's just a little bit.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

And why wouldn't I ask for your help, you cantankerous bastard.

[all_for_not]

I have to be sure, sometimes.

I might still be a little sore about you and Beagalltach vanishing off, you know. *well, he doesn't really come off as angry about it, but yeah, that's fair.*

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

It seemed the right decision at the time. My brother gave too much into despair.

[all_for_not]

... I guess that's understandable. This situation...

It's very easy to lose hope, especially when all hope is placed upon your shoulders.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

While, I listened to him, for better or worse, I. Never wanted to lose hope. Keeping the hope going...

[all_for_not]

... I don't know what either of you have planned, but... I had hoped you didn't intend on just vanishing, like you did. Nothing either you or Beagalltach said or did indicated it.

Do you even remember, what exactly happened?

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

No. Everything. Is scattered fragments. Motes of dust blowing in the wind. Broken, and every time I try to follow them, they just run out of my hands.

[all_for_not]

I guess we can only hope that maybe Beagalltach's memories have improved, by now... Aegis and Achilleshield's reports seem to indicate stability concerning him, but...

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

You think Kai's unstable?

[all_for_not]

Not unstable, but he's an unknown factor. I don't know how much of him is one or the other.

With you... It feels like a split. An even split, but working in cooperation.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

He seemed to be resisting Beagalltach if anything. For me... I don't know, I might just be crazy.

[all_for_not]

... Who knows what might've changed. Aegis and Achilleshield seemed to imply that he recognized them.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

He seemed to be taking great pains to avoid Beagalltach's sense of self drown him.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

... And, I think I heard something about the Bujin's realm being mentioned off hand?

[all_for_not]

... The Bujin's world was destroyed.

After I was told that, I went and attempted to access the world myself. It's truly gone.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

I heard that. But then something else regarding something with one of the Demon Lords, I swear I read or heard about it.

Maybe I've gone crazy, and I haven't noticed...

::Laughs nervously.::

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

It's just if there was even a fragment of their world left, I... was wondering if we should try and move it along with us.

[all_for_not]

If there's something about it relating to the demon lords, then I haven't heard anything about it. It might've been something mentioned back on Earth that you had overheard.

*he pauses, thinking* I seem to remember Labrys mentioning about "two fools jumping head first into the middle of chaos" that she had to guide out, so if there is any chance of someone on Earth knowing anything about it...

... If there's a fragment at all, you know I'd absolutely want to help it. But... We should make sure we can even move ourselves first.

There will be no helping any of our former allies, even if it's just a piece of their world, if we can't even help ourselves.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

Then let's figure out how to save ourselves and them.

We both deserve some dignity, and to escape from the Astrals.

... I feel so strange saying these words.

[all_for_not]

You've come this far. I'm sure you'll adjust to hearing yourself say them.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

::Laughs.::

I suppose so.
