Is this right? I've not... ahhh...

[ A small pause as he checks he's done it right, and then Mitsuhide speaks again, his voice a little unsteady. ]


It seems my arrival here coincides with the approach of conflict. Of what kind I dare not guess, but it is in the air, and understandable considering what has been learnt. I only hope violence does not become necessary.

[ Another pause. ]

What I wished to do today, however, was finally use this strange device to offer thanks to those who gave me guidance when I arrived here. It is appreciated... the confusion I felt was immense, as it must have been for all of you when you came here. In all honesty I felt at first that this must be some grand illusion, some elaborate punishment by those who wish harm upon me. Clearly it is not, though seeing one I knew to be dead in my world made me believe so strongly for a short while.

I still do not understand how such is possible, but...

[ A little sigh, and the sound of movement. ]

I am weak, but... I will endeavour to do what is best for everyone here.

Does he recall his death?

No.

[ His voice becomes a little unsettled. ]

I remember him perishing on the field of battle, one which our army lost. He, however, remembers winning that battle and both of us surviving to the end of it.

His memories are different from yours? That's...

[Well, it's even stranger than Yuan lacking memories, that's for certain.]

Unbelievable, isn't it?

[A chuckle, of sorts. He still can't get his head around it.]

I cannot deny being happy to see him again, though sometimes I feel like I will wake up one day and he'll be gone.

An understandable feeling. Though I wonder if this situation is a cause for alarm. If whatever brought us here has the power to revive the dead and alter memories, who knows what else it's capable of?

I have wondered...

[A small sigh. ]

There is definitely some great power, or perhaps powers, at work here, and the full scope of what they are capable of... well. Who can say? I have not been here for long enough to judge beyond that.

[The sound of shuffling.]

The fact that they were even able to pull people from their worlds into this one... that is a great feat of magic in itself, if magic is what it is. And I know not what else could be responsible.

Whatever it is, such great power could be used for direful purposes. Who's to say they haven't altered all our memories somehow?

That did not occur to me.

[A pause. Memories being messed with? No, his feel too real, the sting of pain too deep, but... Lord Motochika? ]

I suppose it is possible, but I know not what could be done about it, if it were so...

[He sounds a little worried now.]

[Kratos has his own things to worry about. What if his memories are fake and Mithos was never defeated? What if he died in that battle, just like this man's friend? He's silent for a moment, before continuing the conversation.]

There is at least one person we can confront about this, though I'm not certain if he will tell the truth. He's been rather dodgy from the start.

One who might provide the answers may well tell a lie instead...

[It seems that more and more problems are arising. His friend had spoken of a world in which everything had gone to plan, in which they are alive and moving close to bringing peace to the land... hmm.]

I cannot say I am surprised right now.

[The sound of Mitsuhide tapping his fingers on a hard surface can be heard briefly.]

...who might this soul be, if you are willing to tell?

[Voice]

He calls himself Alpha. He's a local scientist and seems to be one of the more important residents of this place.

Alpha... a scientist? Hmm...

[A moment of silence as he thinks. When he talks again, his voice is a little more steady.]

Thank you for telling me of this man. I will need to talk with my friend and see if our memories before that key battle are the same, I believe...

That sounds like a wise course of action. ... Your name?

I... go by Tenkai. May I ask for yours?

Kratos Aurion. It's good to meet you, Tenkai.

If you discover something else worth noting, please let me know. I intend to speak with Alpha as soon as I have the chance.

I will be sure to do this, Kratos.
