[zettai]

That's just the way it's designed. To take you to the core first.

[moextispicy]

Mi- I guess that's as sensible a way as any. [wandering through a little as she talks, looking at the fragments curiously to see if any stands out]

[zettai]

[They're of slightly different shapes and sizes, and some seem more faded and dim while others shine much more brightly. There is one in particular that seems to be shining a bit more brightly than all of the rest.]

[moextispicy]

[heading towards that one]

[zettai]

Where are you going? That's not the right way out.

[moextispicy]

But that one looks interesting. What is it?

[zettai]

Ah, that? Mm... That should be Beato's gameboard, probably.

[moextispicy]

Is it? [looking at it to see what can be seen from outside]

[zettai]

[Not much, though perhaps you can see a faint view of Rokkenjima.]

[moextispicy]

[drawing close enough to touch]

[zettai]

[a knowing laugh] Of course, you wouldn't have really been satisfied without digging a little more, would you?

[moextispicy]

I suppose I'm nosy, nipa~

[attempting to touch]

[zettai]

[Nothing stops you, and the world warps around you until you find yourself in the witches' tea room.]

[moextispicy]

[looks around]

[zettai]

[It's a beautiful tea room, with a few chairs and a table--and in an instant the chairs suddenly come to hold two occupants, oblivious to your presence, and the EP2 ???? tea party begins to play out.]

[moextispicy]

[just planning on watching in silence]

[zettai]

[The scene plays out in full, and as soon as Lambda disappears in the scene, the tea room once again falls into silence. There is a bit of lull, though you get the feeling that if you wait, the story will eventually continue...

You feel a strong grip on your arm.]

[moextispicy]

[turns to look, adrenaline starting to rush]

[zettai]

[It's Lambda, the same one who was with you before you entered this Fragment.]

I don't think you should stay.

[moextispicy]

[attempts to yank out her arm grumpily. Does not like being grabbed from behind]

What don't you want me to see?

[zettai]

There are always some things people would be happier not knowing about.

[moextispicy]

It depends on what it is.

[zettai]

I'm suggesting you don't stay. But if you insist, I'll leave.

[moextispicy]

[sighs] Ignorance is a luxury. I'd like to stay.

[zettai]

I see. Then good luck. [and she disappears]
