Characters Present

Raven

Owl

Raiden Mei

Start

Coral business district. A heating stove was set up in the middle of a snow-covered street.

🔇 N/A

Raven

The Herrscher is moving towards the Coral business district. The sensors we've set up in the city were disabled.

🔇 N/A

Raven

The last batch of data we received showed that the Herrscher spawned numerous beasts along her path.

🔇 N/A

Raven

These beasts are creating extremely cold areas that would kill ordinary humans.

🔇 N/A

Raven

We must destroy these beasts to approach our target.

🔇 N/A

Owl

Even if we could get closer to the Herrscher, we need a better plan or she'll just run away again.

🔇 N/A

Raven

Indeed. The Scepters of Duat will be crucial to our plan.

🔇 N/A

Mei

Can you explain what that device really is?

🔇 N/A

Owl

Simply put, the Scepters are limiters that disrupt the Honkai energy output of a Herrscher's core.

🔇 N/A

Owl

Jackal said they do this by introducing interfering "twists" to the link between the core and Imaginary Space.

🔇 N/A

Owl

In other words, the Scepters can severely limit the Herrscher's actions without killing her.

🔇 N/A

Owl

Usually, these limiters won't last long, but if you severely wound and weaken the Herrscher of Ice first...

🔇 N/A

Owl

...the effects might last long enough for us to bring the Herrscher to our Sire who'd then seal her.

🔇 N/A

Owl

With her powers gone, the Herrscher would enter into a coma and become a harmless "vegetable".

🔇 N/A

Mei

............

🔇 N/A

Owl

I'm sorry. What I said may sound cruel, especially to a Herrscher like you.

🔇 N/A

Owl apologized to Mei, but it was Raven who replied.

🔇 N/A

Raven

Cruel? Since when did you become a kind person?

🔇 N/A

Owl

We do have a Herrscher in our team, though.

🔇 N/A

Mei

It's alright.

🔇 N/A

Mei

If that is the only way, I'll do whatever it takes to finish my task.

🔇 N/A

Owl

......

🔇 N/A

Owl

Alright, then. Let's plan for the next battle. Any delays would only make things worse for us.

🔇 N/A

Raven

Mei will take her head on. We'll engage her in the ways that we're proficient in.

🔇 N/A

Owl

Yes. I'll agree to that.

🔇 N/A

Owl added more fuel to the camp stove, perhaps to ward off the cold.

🔇 N/A

Raven

We must first locate the Herrscher.

🔇 N/A

Raven

Honkai energy and freezing winds have disabled our sensors. We can only rely on unassisted vision.

🔇 N/A

Raven

I will find an elevated position to find the target and provide you with long-range support.

🔇 N/A

Owl

Once we locate the Herrscher, I'll set a trap with the Scepters of Duat. Mei will then lure the target into this trap.

🔇 N/A

Mei nodded with approval.

🔇 N/A

Owl

But the Herrscher used to be a highly trained Valkyrie. A human might easily see through this trap.

🔇 N/A

Raven

Only if she were human. In the last battle, she couldn't even talk and was driven on by a destructive instinct.

🔇 N/A

Mei

She is a unique case.

🔇 N/A

Mei looked at the fire in the stove and recalled what Dr. Einstein said about Herrschers.

🔇 N/A

Mei

That ex-Valkyrie's body may be thoroughly corrupted... but her mind may still be resisting its influence.

🔇 N/A

Mei

She appeared to be mindless only because she was still fighting the Herrscher persona for control over her body.

🔇 N/A

Mei

If the Herrscher persona had won, we wouldn't be seeing that instead.

🔇 N/A

Owl

She's still fighting the Honkai?

🔇 N/A

Raven

But we cannot afford the cost of failure.

🔇 N/A

Raven

This is our best moment to strike. If we all agree to the plan, we should get started right away.

🔇 N/A

Owl

Mei, cover Raven as she moves to her elevated position. Setting the trap will take a while.

🔇 N/A

Mei

Let's go.

🔇 N/A

< The screen goes black, then switches to Coral, where the Captain will have control of Mei's [Herrscher of Thunder] battlesuit. >

Get near the stove for warmth.

< Enter the portal. >

< Defeat the enemies. >

< Enemies defeated. >

Raven

Hngh... it's so cold...

🔇 N/A

Raven

I'm freezing, Mei. Talk to me to make this cold bearable.

🔇 N/A

Mei

Why didn't you dress for the occasion?

🔇 N/A

Raven

My specialized combat suit can tolerate low temperatures, but I never expected a tropical island to be this cold.

🔇 N/A

Raven

That brat Owl opted to stay near the stove to keep himself warm. He's that type of guy...

🔇 N/A

Mei

You seem to know him pretty well.

🔇 N/A

Raven

Well, he used to be a target listed in a contract I took.

🔇 N/A

Raven

We met in battle. I was to take down an organization known as the Thousand Fists. He was their hired muscle.

🔇 N/A

Raven

We fought each other on multiple occasions, but I always won.

🔇 N/A

Raven

He hardly changed. Didn't even blink or care when a blade was placed on his neck.

🔇 N/A

Raven

I found him pretty interesting, so I let him go after destroying the Thousand Fists and recommended him to our side.

🔇 N/A

Raven

He was already an officer when I saw him again and I received a reward for my recommendation.

🔇 N/A

Raven

Though he looks sloppy, he has the skills needed to solve problems efficiently.

🔇 N/A

Raven

Gray Serpent likes to call him an effective tool.

🔇 N/A

Raven

But I never figured out what's going on in his head. This is why I don't like having him on my side.

🔇 N/A

Mei

It doesn't matter. I just need him to get the job done.

🔇 N/A

Raven

That's so very nice of you.

🔇 N/A

Mei

Enough talk for now. Let's push on.

🔇 N/A

Raven

Understood. You lead. I'll follow.

🔇 N/A

Raven

Speaking of which... you haven't given yourself an officer's codename.

🔇 N/A

Mei

No, I didn't.

🔇 N/A

Raven

I advise you to think of one ASAP or Jackal will be the one giving you names.

🔇 N/A

Raven

You don't want that to happen, right?

🔇 N/A

Mei
