Start

Bronya
Theresa, we have returned.
Theresa
Thank you, girls. We totally needed your help!
Theresa easily carried all the wood that Bronya and Seele struggled to drag back to the orphanage.
She skillfully divided the wood by size and added some to the fireplace.
Theresa
Life is hard, but we can make it because Father and everyone are here.
Bronya
When did you arrive, Theresa?
Theresa
I don't know who my parents are. Riding on Father's back was the first thing I knew.
Theresa
I was in a warm bundle strapped to his back while he gathered firewood. It was snowing but warm.
Theresa
When I grew up, I learned that he built this orphanage.
Theresa
I'm not the first one here, but I stayed the longest. I like it here. I will never leave.
Bronya
How about Joachim?
Theresa
Why are you asking about him?
Bronya
Theresa and Joachim seemed to be arguing during lunch.
Bronya
And Joachim is leaving tomorrow. Bronya wants to learn more.
Theresa
I shouldn't keep this from you...
Theresa
Joachim has nothing against me... but Father...
Seele
What happened between him and Father?
Theresa
............
Theresa
Father Otto killed Joachim's dad.
Bronya
Why? How?
Theresa
Joachim's dad was a doctor, and he tried to bring Joachim's passed-away mom back to life.
Theresa
He dabbled in the forbidden arts...
Theresa
The doctor first tested on mice... then he moved onto cats and dogs...
Theresa
By the time Father found him, the doctor was testing on homeless orphans...
Seele
That's... evil...
Theresa
Father Otto had to end that.
Theresa
... but it made Joachim an orphan.

Bronya
Understood. Joachim hates the priest.
Theresa
If that were the case, I think they would work it out eventually.
Theresa
Joachim knew his dad's crimes. He tried to stop him but failed.
Theresa
No. Joachim doesn't hate Father Otto.
Theresa
He came to the orphanage and took care of us like a good elder brother. He protected us.
Theresa
For a while, I thought he had put his past behind...
Bronya
Please continue.
Theresa
Joachim's really smart and handy with the tools. He did everything wonderfully.
Theresa
Father decided to hand the orphanage to him.
Theresa
But that decision changed Joachim. He became... sullen...
Theresa
That's when I knew he never forgot about what happened.
Seele
Perhaps he didn't want the orphanage. He probably wants a life of his own.
Theresa
If that were the case, Joachim would have said it out loud. But he didn't.
Theresa
... he'she's afraid.
Seele
Afraid of what?
Theresa
Afraid that he must make Father's decision when the time comes.
Theresa
Afraid that he might have to make another child an orphan.
Theresa
He could never forget about that.
Theresa
Soon, Madam Lieserl from the neighboring town offered to adopt Joachim...
Theresa
......and he agreed.
Bronya
Joachim is trying to run away.
Theresa
Leaving this place allows him to start life anew.
Bronya
But Joachim will never get over it.
Theresa
We all can tell what's right and what's wrong, but it's always easier said than done.
Theresa
I don't think anyone of us knows how to leave it all behind.
Bronya
............
Theresa
I just don't want to see Joachim so dark and gloomy. He wasn't like that.
Theresa
I want to help him. He's family to all of us.
Theresa
......ohoh dear, it's late. Father should be back already.
Theresa
That's odd. I'll look outside.
< The screen goes black, then switches to the snowy plains. >
< Defeat the enemies. >
< Enemies defeated. >
Bronya:
Unable to locate the priest.
Theresa:
We should split up. I'll look on the other side of the hill.
Theresa:
Please help us search this side!
< Defeat the enemy. >
< Enemy defeated. >
Bronya
This is the end of the road. The priest clearly wasn't here. We should return.
Bronya thought about what Theresa said as she trudged through the snow.
The sun shone on the pristine snow, reminiscent of the day seven years ago when she met her matushka for the first time.
It was a painful memory... a chain that shackled her...
Bronya
............
Bronya
(Bronya also has things that she can't simply put behind her...)
Seele
Bronya, are you alright? You seem to be troubled...
Bronya
Seele... Bronya...
Bronya could not find an answer to her question. Seele gently held her hand.
Seele
Would this make you feel better?
Seele
You used to hold my hand like this when I was scared.
Seele
The warmth of your hands comforted me.
Bronya
Seele...
Seele
Stop thinking about the past if it only brings pain.
Seele
I will be here for you, just as you had been there for me in the past.
Bronya
............
Bronya
Spasibo. Bronya is fine.
Bronya
Bronya decided to face the problem directly.
Bronya
We shall meet Theresa.
Bronya turned and started heading back. Seele's smile slowly faded.
Seele
............
Seele
............
???
Good job, Seele...
???
We're even closer to our objective...
Seele
Was that... the right thing?
???
It's alright, Seele...
???
We're doing this to get back to the real world with Bronya...
Seele
............
Seele
......I understand...
Bronya
We split up at that location. Theresa should be on the other side of this hill.
Theresa
Father! Father!
Seele
It's Theresa. What's happening?
Bronya
We must head over there quickly.
CN
JP
Seele
The priest has fallen! What happened?!
Bronya
......thethe priest has passed out. We must carry the priest back to the orphanage.
Bronya
Seele, stay and help Theresa. Bronya shall ask the older children to help.
< The screen goes black, then switches to the snowy plains. >
< Defeat the enemies. >
Bronya:
... Honkai beasts... they appeared without warning.
Bronya:
Hostiles are too close to the orphanage.
< Enemies defeated. >
Honkai Beast
...!!
Bronya
(More Honkai Beasts appeared. Something is happening...)
Bronya
(Alert! Seele and Theresa will be in danger...)
Honkai Beast
...!
Bronya
......hmmhmm?
The Honkai Beasts have stopped.
The beasts turned around and marched off into the depths of the snow as though controlled by something.
Bronya
What happened?
Bronya held her breath. Something strange was happening.
And then she saw it...
Bronya
Bronya... knows you...
Bronya
......Fenghuang Down, the 8th Divine Key...
Fenghuang Down
Bronya.
Bronya
You... know Bronya's full name?
Fenghuang Down
You were touched by a Feather. I can see you... and know you.
Fenghuang Down
I'm surprised. You don't belong here.
Fenghuang Down
You're present in everyone's memories, but you're not from here.
Bronya
............
Fenghuang Down
I'm one of the three thousand feathers of Fenghuang Down... awakened by the priest's will to protect.
Bronya
You were the one who kept the Honkai Beasts away from the orphanage?
Bronya
Why would the priest own a feather of Fenghuang Down?
Fenghuang Down
The owner of Fenghuang Down was indebted to him. This Feather was left in his heart.
Fenghuang Down
He brought this Feather to this place. I agreed to protect this snowy plains.
Fenghuang Down
His life is ending... and my powers shall fade when he gives up his soul.
Bronya
The priest is dying...
Fenghuang Down
There is an unfinished business. A deep, yawning gap in his heart that shackles him.
Fenghuang Down
He wants someone... someone he approves... to inherit my power.
Fenghuang Down
But there is an insurmountable barrier between the two.
Bronya
It is Joachim... the priest didn't want him to leave.
Bronya
The rift between them will never be resolved if Joachim walkedwalked away.
Fenghuang Down
............
Fenghuang Down
It's not just the rift between them. Your heart bears a similar gap as well.
Bronya
...What does that mean?
Fenghuang Down
Bronya... you came looking for answers.
Fenghuang Down
You're not doing it for others. You're doing it for yourself.
Fenghuang Down
That is why you dove into the Sea of Quanta.
Bronya
............
Fenghuang Down
Press forward to reveal the answers you seek.
Fenghuang Down
You will walk out of your past and find your way.
The familiar figure disappeared in into the light, leaving an echo of her passing.
The feathers she left disappeared silently into the snow.
