Start

Kiana

Phew. It feels great being able to talk about all that stuff.

🔇 N/A

Kiana

I'm getting much better already. Hey, I'll race you home.

🔇 N/A

Mei

Don't get ahead of yourself. Your body has yet to fully recover.

🔇 N/A

Kiana

Ugh... fine. Whatever...

🔇 N/A

< The screen goes black, then switches to Nagazora, where the Captain will have control of Kiana's [White Comet] battlesuit. >

Mei:

...What was that?

Kiana:

It came from there!

< Defeat the enemies. >

< Enemies defeated. >

Kiana:

...

< Defeat the enemies. >

< Enemies defeated. >

< Interact with Benares. >

Kiana

Whoah. Is this a Honkai beast?

🔇 N/A

Mei

Ah, it's... Benares... Kiana, get away from it!

🔇 N/A

Kiana

Wait... Mei...

🔇 N/A

Kiana walked gingerly towards Benares. The dragon gave a weak rumble when it sensed her approach.

🔇 N/A

Benares

...

🔇 N/A

Kiana

Is it calling out to me? This dragon feels different compared to the other beasts.

🔇 N/A

Kiana gently touched the dragon's wounds. The infection patterns on her began to glow.

🔇 N/A

Kiana

Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you.

🔇 N/A

Benares

...?

🔇 N/A

Her touch healed the cracks and wounds.

🔇 N/A

Benares did not resist. It allowed Kiana to keep touching.

🔇 N/A

Mei

Kiana... what are you doing?

🔇 N/A

Kiana

The dragon is trying to stand despite all those wounds...

🔇 N/A

Kiana

Just looking at it gave me a strange sense of warmth.

🔇 N/A

The dragon slowly stood up as it bathed in the light.

🔇 N/A

Kiana

You're looking far better already.

🔇 N/A

Benares

...!!

🔇 N/A

Benares got back to its feet. It gently lowered its head towards the girls and gave no signs of hostility.

🔇 N/A

Mei

......

🔇 N/A

Kiana

See, it's not planning to attack us.

🔇 N/A

Mei

Is it taking orders from you?

🔇 N/A

Kiana

Uhm... I don't know why... but I feel that it may do dangerous things if we leave it alone.

🔇 N/A

Kiana

I think an obedient dragon is way better than a wild dragon.

🔇 N/A

Mei

Kiana... the dragon is following you... I don't think it wants to leave.

🔇 N/A

Mei

Are we... taking it back to the Helios?

🔇 N/A

Kiana

Oh... I haven't thought about that. That red haired scientist should be okay with this, right?

🔇 N/A

Helios. Shortly after.

🔇 N/A

Tesla

......

🔇 N/A

Tesla

Look, I'm fine with stray puppies and kittens. But stray Honkai beasts?

🔇 N/A

Tesla

We took in cyborgs, refugees, and now we're getting a huge dragon. What's next? A World Serpent officer?

🔇 N/A

After walking Kiana back to her room, Mei explained the situation to Dr. Tesla and received her feedback.

🔇 N/A

Mei

I'm sorry for troubling you...

🔇 N/A

Tesla

Whatever... I'm not angry. I'm just a little surprised.

🔇 N/A

Tesla

Kiana taming the beast is good news. One less problem for us. Let it follow the Helios for now.

🔇 N/A

Tesla

Anyway, I have something important to tell you. HQ reached a conclusion while you were away.

🔇 N/A

Mei

...You found a cure for Kiana?

🔇 N/A

Tesla

......

🔇 N/A

Mei

Dr. Tesla?!

🔇 N/A

Tesla

Follow me. She wishes to talk to you in person.

🔇 N/A

The two entered the meeting room. Tesla closed the door and called the Hyperion.

🔇 N/A

Einstein's face quickly appeared on the screen.

🔇 N/A

Mei

Dr. Einstein... is there something you want to tell me?

🔇 N/A

Einstein

Mei, I believe Dr. Tesla told you about Kiana's conditions.

🔇 N/A

Mei

She did. She's not looking good... she doesn't have much time left...

🔇 N/A

Mei

Please, Dr. Einstein... tell me how to save her.

🔇 N/A

Einstein

......

🔇 N/A

Einstein

Mei, you have the right to be informed. This is why I'll be giving you my unreserved opinion on her case.

🔇 N/A

Einstein

After much deliberation, we recommend the immediate transfer of Kiana to a secure base at Baffin Bay.

🔇 N/A

Einstein

AE will protect her and contain any potential hazards that may result. We must... minimize the risks.

🔇 N/A

Mei

Risks? I... I don't understand...

🔇 N/A

Einstein

Please remain calm and listen to me carefully, Mei.

🔇 N/A

Einstein

Kiana's conditions are severe. The Herrscher cores are infecting her body.

🔇 N/A

Einstein

We suspect lingering traces of Sirin's persona. She must be eliminated to halt disease progression.

🔇 N/A

Einstein

However, no one except for Kiana could interfere with this process.

🔇 N/A

Mei

......what does that mean?

🔇 N/A

Einstein

It means... we can't do anything to what's happening to her.

🔇 N/A

Einstein

Dr. Tesla and I had a few ideas: surgical removal of the cores or the Honkai-neutralizing serum...

🔇 N/A

Einstein

But we had to abandon these proposals. They will not solve the root cause of her disease.

🔇 N/A

Einstein

To put it in layman's terms, we're incapable of curing or delaying her conditions.

🔇 N/A

Mei

How could this be?!

🔇 N/A

Mei

Are we just... going to sit by and watch her...

🔇 N/A

Mei

No... I can't! Please think of something, Dr. Einstein! I'll do anything to give her more time... please...

🔇 N/A

Einstein

......

🔇 N/A

Mei

Is there... no other way?

🔇 N/A

Einstein

I'm sorry, Mei...

🔇 N/A

Einstein

Kiana is also fighting the infection. We must have faith in her as we continue our search for a treatment.

🔇 N/A

Einstein

But if the disease progression continues, we must be prepared for the worst.

🔇 N/A

Mei

Be prepared for the worst? What do you mean?

🔇 N/A

Einstein

......

🔇 N/A

Mei

...I'm sorry... I shouldn't have asked...

🔇 N/A

Mei

I... I understand...

🔇 N/A

*RING* The silence was suddenly broken by an incoming call.

🔇 N/A

Tesla

Mei, someone's looking for you. It's that refugee girl.

🔇 N/A

Mei

......

🔇 N/A

Tesla

Do you mind talking to her and see what she needs?

🔇 N/A

Mei

...Sure.

🔇 N/A

Mei left without a word. A daunting silence reigned over the room.

🔇 N/A

Tesla

It's just... too cruel.

🔇 N/A

Einstein

Take a few deep breaths, Dr. Tesla. You don't look too good yourself.

🔇 N/A

Einstein

...We still need to talk to Kiana.
