一朵花、一个吻、一段爱情、一次降生——她的眼前飞过了那一次又一次生命组成的玻璃海洋,<br>而它们也接连隐于了其余碎片的光辉之中。<br>她早已见过这些映像无数次,但仍丝毫不会感到疲倦。<br><br>她凝视着上方的墙体。当碎片都融入在一起后,它们变得更加生机勃勃。<br>她微笑着,享受着这满意的感觉——在她继续开始漫游前。<br>同时,就和以往一样,她没有留心这样做会给她带来何种后果…… | |||

A flower, a kiss, a love, a birth: a life followed by a new life in a river of glass flies past her eyes and blends<br>into the rest. She has seen this reflected countless times, and it still pleases her.<br><br>She gazes at the wall above. As they’ve come together, they’ve grown more vibrant.<br>She smiles, satisfied, before she wanders on again. And, as ever, heedless of all consequence. | |||

She lets the memories go, and genuinely thinks nothing of it.<br><br>They rise. They fly to join with the memories she’s still been gathering, and she looks at their destination<br>now. It’s grown much brighter since she began her collecting. It seems to grow brighter every day…<br><br>How many days has it even been? She winces, and a grimace twists onto her face.

She needs to answer those old questions that she had forgotten. What does this world mean, and why is<br>she in it? Why are gentle memories attracted to her, although she sometimes saw flashes of hardship in<br>pieces that refused her? Who was she?<br><br>Light comes back to her eyes and she stands on shaking legs. As she does so, the Arcaea surrounding her<br>shift. She looks on at them curiously, and lifts her hand. They lift too, and she ponders. She realizes this is<br>different, but that there’s also something different within herself.<br><br>The Arcaea will not come to her unbidden again, and she will not allow herself to be caged. She wipes<br>away her tears with the back of her bloodied hand, and lets the shard that has turned her onto this new<br>path go to follow behind her. She will let that be a memory, and face this strange world anew, and she will<br>find all that it is for, be it good or bad.<br><br>This she swears, and she is certain. | |||

And as she gleefully pulled away great swathes of the maze, hallways tumbling into the air, her smile<br>became warped. She winced; something was wrong with her head. At the heart of the maze, there was<br>*something* worse than any memory before. She could feel it, close now, calling to her. Her enthusiasm<br>had drained, and her progress had slowed, and she saw a wicked shard of glass turning in space,<br>containing the memory of the end of a world.<br><br>With a hand on her face, she looked into the mirrored world.

She swallowed, and with newfound strength,<br>removed the hand from her face. She reached out, and dragged the end of the world into her collection of<br>memories.

She was certain now that she was<br>strong, and she would definitely destroy them all.

The girl had felt many emotions since her waking into the white and ruined world. Mostly, she'd felt anger,<br>but she'd been able to turn that anger into a strange sort of hope. True, she didn't have much of a plan. In<br>fact, she was only walking forward because she believed at the end of her steps there would be something<br>good. She had hope. She was certain that this chaos was leading into light. She was certain that the<br>torments she was facing, that the horrors she was holding, could be completely shattered.<br><br>Yes, she was emotional.

Like an ocean stained with oil, the memories of a cursed labyrinth and the memories she had brought with<br>her all fell and muddled into the soothing glass around her.

---<br><br>Time passed. She changed.<br><br>She no longer sought to collect memories. She walked through the world mostly absently. She discovered<br>things about it and about herself, but she had no ambitions.<br><br>Now she walked beside an old and crumbling building, twirling a parasol she had found in the ruins some<br>day.

这座废墟与其他废墟都呈现出相同的景象,<br>但被光芒环抱的少女仍然在路过时注意到它,走进了其中。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她开始疑惑这些废墟究竟是何物,以及它们为何存在于此——<br>疑惑她一直以来游荡的这个世界是否也存在过往,<br>亦或者这些被严重破坏的风景线只因巧合存在。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她认为自己必须思考此事,而不是屈服于愚昧的极乐。<br>若她想要得到一个理由,这可能也会帮助她进一步了解这个世界。<br>或许这里……是另一个世界的对立面? | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她曾于Arcaea中目睹过类似的景象,但这也使她质疑这个世界的某处<br>存不存在尚未成为废墟、依然耸立的高塔与建筑。<br>也许她只是还没找寻到它们…… | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
这座废墟看起来曾经庞大而金碧辉煌。<br>这必然曾是一个美丽的地方,吸引着大量的人前来,她这样想。<br>如此光彩的过去若存在,那真的十分遗憾。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
如今那儿只有她一个人——移动于排排长凳与破损的烛台之中。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
如今那儿只有她一个人——接着她眨了下眼,猛然发现这里实际上还有一个人。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
还有一个人,静静地站在她的左方,那一堵损毁的墙壁前。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
曾经的她,会开心地微笑起来,毫无防备地亲近对方。<br>而现在,她困惑地盯着那被阴影笼罩的女孩,<br>但却未必没有怀着那让她无法抑制地颤抖的欣喜之情。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
回忆的景象之外,于这个世界之中,就在她的眼前——有一名人类。<br>一直以来她都是独自一人,而现在这里出现了另一个人:<br>一个活生生的,有着呼吸的人。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
另一位少女并没有注意到她,只是手握阳伞继续熟睡。<br>她那黑暗的身影显得与这闪闪发亮的世界格格不入。<br>这突兀的景象使她以为自己正处于梦境中,又或者瞧见了另一段苏醒的回忆。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她张开嘴说话,而另一名少女也恢复意识,睁开了双眼。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
象征着被遗忘的悲伤与邪恶事物的她睁开了双眼,<br>眼前是这早已改变的,一身雪白衣裳的少女。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
让身披光芒的少女感到舒心的那阵阵呼吸声很快就停止了;<br>那背负黑暗的少女眯起眼睛,嘴唇微张,似乎有着疑问。<br>但她最后只是倒吸了一口气,眉头上扬,将伞柄握得更紧了。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
一股难以控制的扭曲狂喜由她心中一涌而出,但凌驾之上的是空前的渴望。<br>这份情感显现于她的面庞,而象征混沌的少女向那象征光明的少女<br>献出了一抹真诚、无法抑制的微笑。 | |||
====英文剧情==== | |||
The ruin is as common a sight as any other, but the girl in light<br>nonetheless pays it attention as she steps through. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She's been wondering what the ruins are and why they're there—<br>wondering if this world she wanders has a past,<br>or if its decimated landscape is only coincidental. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She feels she has to think about it, not to succumb to the bliss of ignorance.<br>If she wants a reason, then it might help to know the world, too.<br>Perhaps this is a reflection of another world? | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She has seen things like it within the Arcaea, but that also makes her wonder if in this place<br>there might be standing towers and buildings that are not in ruin.<br>Maybe she’s only yet to see them... | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
This ruin seems like it was once large, grand.<br>It must have been a beautiful place where many people came, she thinks.<br>If it did have such a past, then it is a shame. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
There is only her, now, moving through pews and broken candlesticks. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
There is only her, and she blinks, seeing that there is in fact somebody else. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Somebody else stands still at her left, before a broken wall. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Once, she would have grinned happily, but carelessly at this person.<br>As she is now, she looks at the shadow-covered girl in confusion,<br>but certainly not without a fluttering, insuppressible feeling of elation. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Outside of a memory, here in the world and before her eyes, is a person.<br>All this time she's walked alone, and here is somebody else:<br>one other living, breathing person. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
The other girl doesn't notice her. She is standing in place, holding her parasol, and sleeping.<br>Her dark figure cuts so strongly against the rest of the world, which shines so bright in the distance,<br>that she thinks this must be a dream or perhaps a waking memory. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She opens her mouth to speak, and the other girl opens her eyes to consciousness. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She who heralds sad and evil forgotten things opens her eyes<br>and witnesses the changed and white-clad girl before her. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
That breathing the light-bearer found so relieving stops short,<br>and the dark girl squints, lips parted as if she means to question.<br>But she swallows instead and raises her brow, tightening her grip of the handle. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Her own twisted elation flows out from her heart, just as unstoppable, but so much more eager.<br>It climbs to her face, and the girl of chaos offers the girl of light an honest, irrepressible smile. | |||

在这座既没有墙壁,又不存在屋顶,只能靠着仅剩骨架的长椅与白色的蜡烛辨别出场所的教堂之中,<br>身着黑衣的少女伫立于那幸存的老旧大门旁,凝视着片刻前才遇到的另一人。<br><br>一切都很单纯:长久以来,她的情绪都处于低谷,直到自己的面前终于出现了一个货真价实,有血有肉的人。<br>她并没有感到过于激动。她甚至心如止水。于她脸庞上浮现的那抹微笑仅仅是道敷衍却无法制止的谎言。<br>那段谎言对身着白衣的少女打招呼道,“很高兴见到你”。毫无意义。<br><br>少女用干涸的话语声问道:“你叫什么名字?”也许在曾经,她也如此意识到自己已经太久没有开口说过话。<br><br>“我的……名字?我……我不清楚,”散发光芒的少女如此回应,<br>“你呢?啊——我是指,记得你自己的……名字……”<br><br>她并没有给予回答。“这件事……”是她走神望向那华丽的墙壁时所说的一切。<br><br>纯白色的少女不禁露出了烦闷的表情。 | |||
---- | |||
这……成为了一场怪异的相会。尽管黑衣少女并不知晓,但白衣少女与她一样,心中未流淌着任何热情。<br>如同火苗忽然沐浴于寒风,她那不断黯淡的希望正在摇曳闪烁。现在,她变得不太舒服,心中焦虑而警戒。<br>一丝轻薄却无可撼动,且不合时令的气氛穿梭于二人之间。对她而言,<br>发生在这个世界的这场相遇本身便是个单纯的……“错误”。这些总是存在于四周,<br>如今已散布于破碎的地面之上的玻璃,也正体现出了这种违和之感。<br><br>正常情况下,这些碎片会朝她们无法抑制地一拥而上:“快乐”涌向白衣少女,而“悲痛”则是朝向黑衣少女。<br>这一刻,每一片碎片都仅仅是停滞于空中。或许有半百片镜面静悄悄地悬浮与少女们的身旁,<br>捕捉着她们四周大约一半的虚无景象。当白衣少女试着呼唤它们时,它们甚至都不会摇晃一下。<br>面前的一切使她感到心神不宁:幸福与恐惧并肩存在,一同闪烁,也皆无动作。<br>唯独那片她能够亲手握紧——那片曾经使她重获自由的碎片——自始至终对她锲而不舍。 | |||
---- | |||
她紧盯着阴霾中的少女。“如果我们两人都在这儿,”她开口道,身体前倾,<br>“那你觉得我们能不能结伴同行?我们……我们也许能互帮互助,说不定还……”<br><br>她止住了话语。另一位少女正凝视着那空旷的,如画布一般的天空,脸上空洞的神色显得毫无感情。<br>她看似并未聆听——但实际上,她已将每一个字刻入了脑海。<br><br>“说不定还……”被黑暗包裹的少女重复道。话语虚弱而又模糊……自从她于苦痛之中再生,<br>她的灵魂便感觉如同一道阴暗而冷酷的深渊。然而,当她听到这个提议时,<br>某种存在于她心中的事物仍然开始闪出微光——无比短暂,且极为微弱。<br>只是,对现在的她而言,就算是如此细小的事情,<br>也足够穿破自她再次苏醒过来便一直尝试扼杀她呼吸的失意面纱。 | |||
---- | |||
而少女残余的过去:那个首先苏醒于这片世界的对立,仍然违抗着这段象征“结局”的未来——<br>抵抗着彻底放弃的想法。她想要得到第二次机会。<br><br>但她并非诚心的答案还不足以激发面前那个女孩的信心。她们的相遇始终被小心翼翼的氛围所笼罩。<br>才恢复感官不久的光早已发现Arcaea的世界远超过了漂亮所能形容的范畴——当然,也远不够被形容为安全。<br><br>尽管如此,两位少女仍会开口交谈,期望局面会向某个更好的方向发展。 | |||
====英文剧情==== | |||
In the unwalled, unroofed church, known only by its skeleton chairs and white candles, the girl in black<br>stands near the remaining old gate, looking at the person she's just met.<br><br>It's actually quite simple: she’s been upset for so long, and now a true flesh-and-blood person is finally in<br>front of her. She isn't thrilled. She isn't even excited. The smile on her face is an effortless lie—but it's one<br>she can't help but tell. It says to white-clothed girl before her, "pleasure to meet you." It means nothing.<br><br>"What's your name?" she asks in a dry voice. Maybe, in the past, she'd have realized how long it had been<br>since she'd last spoken.<br><br>"My... name? I... I'm not sure," replies the radiant girl. "Do you? Oh—know your own... name, I mean... "<br><br>She doesn't answer the question. "That's something..." are her only words as she looks off toward an<br>ornate wall.<br><br>The girl in white gives a bothered expression.<br> | |||
---- | |||
This... was turning out to be a strange meeting. Though the one in black doesn't know it, the one white<br>is beginning to share the darker girl's lack of enthusiasm. Like a fire in a sudden chill wind, her hope<br>flickers and wanes. Now she grows uncomfortable, anxious, and wary. A slight but unshakable atmosphere<br>drifts between them, one that feels unmistakably off. To her, it seems as though their very meeting is<br>something the world finds to be simply... "wrong". The ever-present glass, now scattered unevenly<br>throughout and above the broken grounds, reflects that strange feeling.<br><br>Ordinarily, these shards would flock to them without their bidding: "happiness" to the girl in white,<br>"tragedies" to the girl in black. Right now, every piece of glass in the air stands still. Perhaps half a<br>hundred mirrors are quietly suspended around the girls, half-catching images of the empty place that<br>surrounds them. When the girl in white tries to call out to them, they will not even waver. It unsettles her:<br>happiness placed beside horror, equally glinting and equally motionless. The only piece that will follow her<br>is the one she can hold—the one that set her free. | |||
---- | |||
She stares hard at the shadow girl. "If we're in this together," she begins, leaning forward, "then what do<br>you think about staying together? We... We could help each other, and maybe..."<br><br>She stops. The other girl is staring into the empty, canvas-like sky with a blank and uninformative<br>expression. She doesn't seem to be listening, but in truth she has followed every word.<br><br>"Maybe... " the dark girl echoes. It's faint... After her reincarnation into misery, her soul itself had felt like<br>a dull, grim abyss. However, when she heard this proposal, something inside her shimmered—very briefly<br>and very weakly. However, as she is now, even something as tiny as that was able to pierce the shroud of <br>frustration that had been endlessly choking her since she'd reawakened. | |||
---- | |||
And the remnant of the girl she used to be, the Tairitsu who had first woken up in this world, rebelled<br>against the prospect of “the end”—against the idea of giving up. She wanted a second chance.<br><br>But her halfhearted answer isn’t enough to inspire confidence in the girl standing opposite her.<br>Their meeting remains careful, cautious. The Hikari who recently returned to her senses now knows<br>that the world of Arcaea is far more than pretty—and far less than safe.<br><br>And yet the two girls will speak, with the hope that it will lead to something better. | |||

她们的交谈持续着。<br><br>“要是我们能够用名字相互称呼,事情的确会好很多呢,”对立用沙哑的声音说道。<br>她的双目再次开始失去象征生命的光辉。<br><br>另一位少女——光——留意到这一事后,不禁略感不适。<br>“是呢。我并不是很愿意去思考这种事:身在这个遍布回忆的世界的我们,脑海中却没有任何记忆,”<br>她承认道。<br><br>此时此刻,她们正坐在同一张长凳之上,尽管相距甚远。她们来到了这曾为第一排座椅的地方,<br>而前方的几个台阶则连接着一面宽大空旷的平台。白衣少女无精打采地注视着她的新朋友,眼中满是担忧。<br>而黑衣少女则是扫视着面前那宽敞的空间、那片天空,以及那些浮夸而又死气沉沉的建筑结构——<br>但这么做的她,其实似乎对那些事物没抱有任何兴趣。<br><br>正在仰望天空之际,她突发奇想地说起话。“这玻璃……你知道它们叫什么吗?”<br><br>“呃?喔……总之,虽然不太清楚原因,但我知道它们叫作‘Arcaea’。” | |||
---- | |||
“和我一样,”对立如此回答,当今正朝光的方向看去,“所以,我们两个究竟哪里不同?”<br><br>光露出一抹遗憾的微笑。“我不知道哎,”她如此说道,“除了我们外表上的不同。”<br><br>“那我们试着弄清楚吧。你在这些玻璃中见到的都是什么样的回忆?”<br><br>“基本只有令人愉快的那些。”<br><br>对立叹了口气。“那我们就是截然相反的……”她苦涩地回话道,低头瞧向她的双脚,<br>“那可以假设一下我们是唯二漫游于此的人。如果真是这样,那我们的相反特征可真是非同寻常的要素。”<br><br>“你在Arcaea之中看不到愉快地回忆吗?”光疑问,身子稍微靠向与她交谈的这位伙伴,“嗯,对不起……” | |||
---- | |||
“……总之,事情就是如此,”另一位少女说道。一时间,她们陷入沉默,直到对立首先打破沉静,<br>“但根据你之前说的话……我猜,你所见的那些快乐的回忆也没有带给你多愉快的经历吧。怎样?我猜得对吗?”<br><br>对这番猜测,光点了点头:“我并不是想说自己的经历从苏醒以来便一直那么糟糕,但……<br>你知道吗,曾经我收集了足够多的碎片,以至于它们足以覆盖整片天空。<br>当我那样做了之后时,那片崭新的天空几乎将我杀死……<br>我能感觉到那时天空散发的光芒缓慢地侵蚀了我的心智……说实话,那件事情的确是我自作自受。”<br><br>少女们坚信自己该向对方阐述真相。<br><br>在光讲述完自己沉浸于光芒之中的那场天真烂漫而危险重重的旅程后,<br>对立冷冷地叙述了她于黑暗的龙卷中那几番悲惨的挣扎。<br>她们从某些方面而言,的确截然不同。但两人之间某个必然存在的共同点,此刻已变得十分显著:<br>于一个无意义的世界中渴求着一丝意义。她们所处的世界也许十分美好,但其中的残酷性质却母庸置疑。 | |||
---- | |||
光已重振决心,但在不久前,她“本身的存在”就逐渐被这古怪而又冷清的地方所威胁。<br>而对立,却保持着伤痕累累的模样:残暴与愤怒充盈的欲望,如同海啸般连绵不断地涌出她的身体。<br>尽管在这场谈话的过程中,她已尽全力试图保持友善的模样,<br>源于胸腔的每一口疾喘却不是轻而易举就能掩饰住的。<br>眼前这个有血有肉的人,对她而言简直是完美的施虐对象。<br>那身着白衣的少女,一定早已注意到这位黑衣少女总是间隙性地用颤栗的双手将伞柄握得更紧。<br><br>这场谈话一点都不轻松——她们彼此都深知这一点。<br><br>但她们将全力进行抗争。 | |||
---- | |||
“我只是觉得我……我真的很希望遇见另一个人,”对立言为心声,“甚至该说……也许是在几天前,<br>这曾是我心中唯一的期盼。只是,自从我踏出了那漆黑的外壳,我便意识到,要自己坚守如此单纯的愿望……<br>真的太艰难了。我只是单纯不知道该怎么振作自己……当我内心未感到空虚的时候,<br>其中涌现的却只有肮脏而扭曲的血液。都是些恶心又残破不堪的事物……”她注视着光,<br>“就算到此刻,我心中仍在思考自己究竟多么想要伤害你。”<br><br>“没关系的……”另一位女孩说道,“如果我有过与你同样的经历,或许真的会感同身受。<br>只是呢,我不认为你对某一件事实的认知是正确的。我不认为你的心就像你说的那样破碎不堪。”<br><br>对立与她四目相对,仿佛在问这怎么可能。<br><br>“看吧——你退缩了哦,”光用心地分析着,“就算在现在也一样。这让我知道,就算经历过那么多的事情,<br>你仍然是个十分善良的人——始终如此。你很坚强……”从座椅上忽然站起的她,脸上挂起一抹微笑,<br>“你比我要坚强太多,“她道,不自觉地抬头瞥了一眼那明澈的天空。<br><br>“我被外界力量所拯救,”她继续说着,又一次与对立视线交汇,“而你却拯救了你自己。” | |||
---- | |||
闪烁于黑暗少女心中的微光逐渐淡作虚弱的光芒,随之而来的是钻心的疼痛。这明明不是事实,她想到。<br>这一切经历并不是如此简单,她陷入沉思。她失败了,而过去的她早就与那迷宫一同土崩瓦解。<br>自那以后,她便失去了一切情感——就算情感再次于她心中燃起,所谓的情感却仅仅包含着蔑视。<br>甚至在与这女孩相遇之时,她唯一的渴望便是用小刀刺穿这女孩的身体。<br><br>那番话语并不正确,她根本没有拯救自己。只是……也许她的确不是单纯寻找着能供她摧残的对象。<br>也许她只是在等待一个能够给予她最后一线希望的奇迹发生。优柔寡断的光实在无法直接赋予她安慰,<br>但这女孩的存在本身与她那毫无敌意的心灵却始终暗示着一件事:<br>她,可能就是那一道才诞生不久的,最后的光芒。 | |||

让对立内心最为痛苦的,还数那种纯真的自我意识。<br><br>她的身躯瘫软下来。光立刻注意到这一细节,并赶紧凑过去,心中希望自己能帮上忙。<br>只是她的行为仍然是如此犹豫不决——这也注定着她完全无法接触到另一位少女。<br>她仅仅是站在对立跟前,半抬着双臂,而黑衣少女在片刻后便靠自己的力量重新站了起来。<br>光的双臂滑落至腰间,随着她的身体不自觉地后退一步。在二人的四周,<br>玻璃碎片们伴随着她们的动作而摇摆,而其中的某一片却突然散发起与其他碎片略微不同的光晕。<br>它的倒影中,存在着某样熟悉的事物,却不符合任何现实逻辑。<br><br>这显然是从未有人见过的景象:<br><br>一道转瞬即逝的邪念闪光,其中蕴含的却是这整片世界中最为诡秘的反常规记忆。 | |||
====英文剧情==== | |||
Their conversation continues.<br><br>"It would certainly be nice if we had names to share," says Tairitsu in a fraying voice. Her eyes are again <br>beginning to lose the shine of life.<br><br>The other girl, Hikari, notices that with some discomfort. "Yes, I can't say I like to think about it: not having<br>any memories in a world filled with them," she admits.<br><br>At the moment, they sit upon the same pew, though not close. They've gone to what was once the front row,<br>and a few steps in front of them lead up to a wide, flat floor. The girl in white is slouched, watching her new <br>acquaintance with worry painting her gaze. The girl in black is examining the empty place in front of them,<br>the sky, the dead and distant grandiose architecture—but she does so seemingly without concern or interest.<br><br>While watching, she begins to speak unprompted. "This glass. Do you know a name for it?"<br><br>"Huh? Oh... Well, for whatever reason, I know the name 'Arcaea'." | |||
---- | |||
"Same as me," says Tairitsu, now looking Hikari's way. "So, how are we different?"<br><br>Hikari offers an apologetic smile. "I don't know," she says, "aside from our difference in looks."<br><br>"Let's find out, then. What kind of memories do you see in the glass?"<br><br>"Almost only pleasant ones."<br><br>Tairitsu sighs. "Then we're opposites..." she remarks bitterly, looking to her feet. "Let's say we're the only two<br>walking around this place. If that's true, our opposition could matter a great deal.”<br><br>"You don't see happy memories through the Arcaea?" asks Hikari, leaning slightly toward her conversation<br>partner. "I'm sorry..." | |||
---- | |||
"...That's just how it is," says the other girl. For a short while they remain silent, until Tairitsu speaks again.<br>"But from what you've said... I suspect even your pleasant memories haven't resulted in a happy life for you<br>here. Well? Am I correct?"<br><br>To this, Hikari nods. "I don't mean to make it sound as though I've had it rough since waking up, but...<br>You see, I once gathered enough piece that they could cover the sky. When I did, that new sky almost<br>killed me... I felt like the light was slowly eroding my mind... I think it was mainly my own fault, to be honest."<br><br>They both feel it's best to be honest.<br><br>After Hikari tells of her naive and dangerous journey bathed in light, Tairitsu coldly recounts her tragic<br>struggles through maelstroms of dark. The two are certainly different in quite a few ways, but one definite <br>commonality becomes clear between them: a want of sense in a senseless world. The world around them<br>may be beautiful, but it has also been cruel. | |||
---- | |||
Hikari has resolved herself, but it wasn't long ago that her very "self" had been threatened by this strange,<br>unfeeling place. For Tairitsu, it has left her scarred: persistent, panging compulsions toward violence and<br>wrath continue to roll up from within her like tides. Even throughout their discussions here, despite her<br>desire to be amicable, smothering each urge from her breast has been no easy feat. This living, breathing<br>person beside her is too enticing a target to release her frustrations on. The girl in white doesn't fail to <br>notice how the girl in black's hold on her umbrella periodically tightens into a trembling, aggravated grip.<br><br>It hasn't been easy—a fact that holds true for the both of them.<br><br>But they continue to fight. | |||
---- | |||
"I think I just... I really wanted to meet somebody else," Tairitsu reveals. "Even... perhaps a few months ago,<br>that may have been all I really wanted. However... ever since I stepped out of that black shell, I've found it<br>difficult to hold on to a such an innocent desire. I just can't muster it. When my chest isn’t feeling empty,<br>I can't muster anything in it that isn't vile and wicked impulse. Disgusting, broken thing..." She looks at <br>Hikari. "Even now, I keep thinking about how much I want to hurt you."<br><br>"That's fine..." says the other girl. "Maybe I'd feel that same way if I’d gone through everything that you did.<br>But I don't think you’re right about one thing. I don’t think your heart is as broken as you feel."<br><br>Tairitsu meets her eyes, as if asking how that could be.<br><br>"Look—you're holding back," explains Hikari, "even now. That tells me that even after everything, you're a<br>very good person—still. You’re strong." She smiles and stands from her seat. "You're a lot stronger than me,"<br>she says, casting a momentary glance into the brilliant sky.<br><br>"I was rescued," she continues, meeting Tairitsu's eyes once more. "You rescued yourself." | |||
---- | |||
The shimmer inside the dark girl's chest becomes a faint glow, and an ache pulses through her.<br>That's not true, she thinks. It isn't that simple, she thinks. She failed, and the old her died that day when<br>the labyrinth collapsed. She'd felt nothing after that, and when feeling came back to her, it was nothing but<br>contempt. When she’d met this girl, even, it made her want to do nothing more than take a blade and run<br>her through.<br><br>No, she hasn’t rescued herself. However... perhaps she hasn't simply been seeking someone out to harm.<br>Perhaps the truth is that she’s been awaiting something impossible to give her one last ray of hope.<br>Hikari is too meek and unsure to directly comfort her, but her presence and lack of aggression signal this:<br>she may be that last, fledgling ray. | |||
---- | |||
What pains Tairitsu's heart is that very innocent realization.<br><br>Her posture weakens. Hikari notices and moves to see if she can do something. But she is still unsure,<br>and so she is ultimately unable to reach out for the other girl. She stands before Tairitsu with her arms<br>half-raised, and in a few moments the girl in black stands by herself. Hikari drops her hands, and takes<br>a step back. Around them, the glass sways with their movement, and one in particular begins to shine a<br>bit differently from the others. In its reflection is something familiar, yet impossible.<br><br>It is a vision that, surely, nobody could have seen:<br><br>the briefest wicked flicker of a most strange and anomalous memory. | |||

她们两人各站一方。对立单手捂住胸口,手指因连续疾喘所带来的煎熬而加倍施力。<br>她重新振作了起来,而这一切都得归功于那位白衣女孩。光赠予了她珍贵的最后一次安慰。<br>这一切并未注定走向结局。在这纯白又刺眼的地狱之中,还存在最后一条能够使她逃离一切梦魇的道路。<br><br>尽管虚弱无力,但在深吁出一口气之际,一抹真诚的微笑仍是显现于她的脸庞。<br>“让我们一起做件有意义的事吧,”她敞开心扉道,<br>“让我们搞清楚这愚蠢而又荒谬的世界究竟是怎么一回事。”<br><br>“这世界也——也没有多愚蠢啦,”光温和地反驳道,略微用力地微笑着。<br>她并不全心全意地喜欢这另一位少女,但至少能确认一件事:<br>虽然表面上看不出来,但这女生绝对不是一个邪恶的人——更是似乎……截然相反。<br>而单单这一个事实,便足以成为与她结伴而行的最佳理由。<br>总而言之,一个“好”人……这种话绝对不会被她用来形容自己。 | |||
---- | |||
但就在她这样想着的时候,对立的心情变化了。“是什么让你说出那种话的?”<br>不断喘着粗气的她如此问道,尽管问题本身听上去更像是在责备。<br>她的双瞳空洞无光,冰冷的视线直射对面。“你应该比我更了解这种事:<br>这个地方可以在女生因鲁莽使自己被愉悦的事物包围时彻底摧毁这女生的心智。<br>“她站得笔直,边平息着自己的呼吸边宁定着视线,<br><br>她那坚定的信念使得另一位少女失落了片刻,但光却不再是一个对任何事物都漠不关心的女孩。<br>她拾起星点的自信,挺直身子,阐述了她的观点。<br><br>“我们依然活着,“她说,”而如果这世界让我们活下去,那它就绝不是最为糟糕的地方。<br><br>“哈啊……?”另一位少女眼含凌厉,“你错了……如果一个世界允许生命的存在,<br>却只是用无尽的污秽与梦魇去荼毒生灵,那这个世界根本就是不公平的。”<br><br>“好……好吧。也许的确不是那样,可是……”<br><br>“可是?!”对立质问道。 | |||
---- | |||
“但那样的目光也太短浅了!你究竟想要做什么事?”<br><br>”毁灭一切。这世界,这些玻璃……我要毁灭所有东西。我会找出正确的方法。<br>这想法十分合理,不是吗?”她依照事实诉说着,“我想你一定会与这想法产生共鸣。<br>除了被当成一座过于宽敞的监狱,这世界对你而言还能是什么地方?”<br><br>“毁灭这世界……?就算……就算你办得到,这也只会让一切走向终点啊!<br>我们直到目前为止,能确定真实存在的世界也仅此而已!<br>如果我们以某种方式毁灭了它,那我们难道不是会把自己也摧毁吗?<br>难道你会……难道你宁可死在这里?为什么……这种想法简直太过分了!”<br><br>“不,不会有关系的,”对立冷漠地说道。<br><br>并没有预料到这种回答的光立刻沉默了下来。对立的话语太过于骇人,而包含的更是只有悲伤……<br><br>在光沉默之际,对立继续起了她的质问:“你有任何别的想法?或者其他计划?” | |||
---- | |||
“不……我没有。我只是想要和……和你一起找一个办法,<br>”另一位少女这样承认道,话语声中流淌着清晰的消沉。<br><br>在方才一番振作后,对立其实就已经认识到了这一点。这使她暂停了质问。<br>要责骂这位新认识的同伴实在是太过容易了。她知道自己的行为举止蛮横无理。<br>理所当然,不久前才搜寻到一线崭新希望的她,更是能十分容易地察觉自己在这之前是多么冷血。<br>只是,在面对另一个人心中的希望时,她却选择去摧毁那希望。说实话,她难道还不够狭隘?<br>在过去,她脑海中类似的信念使她不仅永远无法体会到满足与平静,更是离解决眼前的问题愈来愈远。<br>不,她的任性只会带领她走向一条污秽而黯淡的荆棘之路。<br>心中怀揣这样的思想,她终于扑灭了心中那注定爆燃的烈焰。<br>若她想要牵起这女孩的手……她就必须同时承担这女孩用双手竭力保护着的希望之光。<br><br>“对……对不起,”她完全抛开了自己过激的感情,低下头真挚地道了歉,<br>“我……其实也有一样的想法。我也想与你一起找出一些新办法。”<br><br>早前因对立的话语而被削弱的自信,如今又被光重拾回心中。她对自己的新朋友说:<br>“没关系的。毕竟,你的确经历过一段我不了解的时光呢。” | |||
---- | |||
只不过,燃烧于对立心中的正义之火刚刚才恰到好处。<br><br>最终,那道烈火也只持续了一瞬间,<br>就像是闪烁的火光一般——但却足以惹恼沉眠于那些碎片之中的某一片玻璃。<br><br>它就这样苏醒过来——并且自主性地朝着二人的所在处飘去,不引起她们的一丝注意。<br><br>“不要失去希望,”缠绕光芒的少女说道,“无论多么糟糕的事情,都有好转的那一刻。”<br><br>不断闪烁着渐变的色彩,那片碎片径直闯入两人中间。它同时引起了她们的注意——<br>但它却只向着那位身着一袭黑衣的少女呈现碎片所蕴藏的记忆。 | |||

They stand apart, Tairitsu holding a hand over her chest, fingers clenched and struggling as she takes heavy<br>breaths. She is reinvigorated, in no small part thanks to the girl in white. Hikari has given her one precious,<br>final reassurance. It does not have to be the end. One last path out of this white and blinding hell still exists.<br><br>An open, albeit weak, smile cuts along her face as she exhales. "Let's do something," she says. "Let's figure<br>out this stupid, absurd world."<br><br>"I-It's not that stupid," says Hikari in mild protest, smiling herself with just as little strength. She isn't entirely<br>positive about the other girl, but she can tell at least one thing: despite appearances, she isn’t evil.<br>Quite the opposite, it seems. If anything, that alone is reason enough to join hands with this new potential<br>ally. A "good" person... is not exactly how she'd readily describe herself, after all. | |||
---- | |||
However, while she thinks this, Tairitsu’s mood turns. "What makes you say that?" asks the panting girl,<br>though her delivery of the question sounds much more like an accusation. Her eyes are almost hollow as<br>they bore coldly into her opposite. "You might understand it even better than me. This is the kind of place<br>that would break a girl for the audacity of surrounding herself in pleasures and joys." She stands up<br>straight, calms her breath, and steadies her gaze, bringing the hand over her chest to the handle of her<br>parasol. "That's unconscionable. You don't agree?"<br><br>Her strength of conviction puts the other girl down for a moment, but Hikari is no longer one who is incapable<br>of any caring. Gathering a modicum of confidence, she stands up straight herself, and delivers her explanation.<br><br>"We're alive," she says, "and if a world can permit that, then it can't be the worst thing."<br><br>"Hah...?" The other girl's glare intensifies. "No... If a world can permit life, only to plague that life with ills<br>and grief, then that world is not just."<br><br>"W-Well, maybe not, but—"<br><br>"But?" demands Tairitsu. | |||
---- | |||
"But that's shortsighted! What is it that you want to do, exactly?"<br><br>"Destroy everything. The world, the glass, all of it. I'll find a way. It's only fair, right?" she explains as a <br>matter of fact. "I would think you'd resonate with the idea. What has this world been for you other than<br>an expansive prison?"<br><br>"Destroy it...? Even... Even if you could, it would only end everything! This is the only world we know of<br>that exists for certain, isn't it? If we somehow destroyed it, could we not simply destroy ourselves as well?<br>Would you... You’d rather die than live here? Why, that's... that's ridiculous!"<br><br>"No, that's fine," says Tairitsu simply.<br><br>Hikari, not expecting that answer, falls silent. Tairitsu's words were too frightening, and far too sad.<br><br>In her silence, Tairitsu continues her interrogation. "Do you have some other idea? Some other plan?" | |||
---- | |||
"No... I don't. I wanted to find—to find a plan with you," admits the other girl, and dismay is clear in her tone.<br><br>And Tairitsu, in her recent recovery, recognizes this. It makes her pause. It had been too easy to lash out<br>at this new acquaintance. She knew she wasn't being reasonable. Indeed, having just found herself with<br>burgeoning hope again, she could clearly see how cold she’d been until their meeting. And yet, when faced<br>with another’s hope, she'd attacked. Truly, was she that petty? In the past, this conviction of hers has never<br>brought her satisfaction or peace, much less resolution. No, her willfulness has only ever led her down a<br>dark, thorny path stained with gloom. With this in mind, she extinguishes the fire rising in her heart that<br>had been so sure of its need to burn. If she wants to take this girl's hand... she cannot reject the ideas it holds.<br><br>"I... I'm sorry," she apologizes, her passion now fully relinquished. She lowers her head for a moment.<br>"I... feel the same. I want to work to find something new as well."<br><br>Hikari regains a bit of her self-assurance, which had been brought low before Tairitsu. She tells her new<br>friend, "It's alright. You've had a time here I could probably never understand." | |||
---- | |||
But that righteous fire in Tairitsu's heart had been just enough.<br><br>Ultimately, it had only burned for a short moment, like a flash—<br>but it was enough to rile a dormant shard in the flock of glass around them.<br><br>It awakens and, on its own, begins to drift down to where they are, still unseen.<br><br>"Don't lose hope," says the girl in light. "Things can always get better."<br><br>A shard, shimmering with faded color, comes directly between them.<br>It catches both their attention—but it will only show its memory to the one clad in black. | |||

结局。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
被阴影纠缠的少女,目光穿过那扇破碎的窗户,投射到另一段时光之中。<br>微笑,回到了她的脸上。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她可真是个无可救药的傻子。<br>不,不是那白衣少女。<br>是她自己。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
那片玻璃中的影像并不是回忆。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
当然,这并不现实。<br>她所看见的是未来——那个她理应期待万分的未来,<br>那个白痴,愚蠢的梦想家。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
那些玻璃毫无偏差地映照出了她自己的身体被一根参差的玻璃长柱一穿而过的影像。<br>那道创伤仿佛要在炙热,苍白的烈焰中将她的衣服与整个身躯撕裂。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
空虚荒芜的Arcaea大地,从她的身前和身后延伸到无边无际的地平线。<br>带着缠绕双肩的那两股刺眼的炙热火焰,抬起手轻抚着长柱的,<br>是那位身披白衣,使她倍感熟悉的少女——尽管在这个角度看不到她的表情。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她,是此时此刻正站在自己面前的少女。<br>那名才与她相遇不久的女孩。<br>这绝不是回忆:这景象预言着未来将会发生的一切。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
面对此景,对立退回了自己的立场,<br>并对峙起那段她原先计划彻底无视的真相。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她已无所谓自己有没有心怀信念。<br>她已不会在这世界中找到任何对她有利的事物。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
最后一丝希望也终被墨染,淹没在绝望之中,最终被彻底遗忘。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
还有什么事会发生?<br>她还期望着什么?<br>愚蠢。令人厌烦。盲目的愚蠢。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
令人厌烦的努力。<br>令人厌烦的回忆。<br>令人厌烦的存在。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
令人厌烦,糟糕得不可理喻——使她作呕。对这一切感到作呕,对她自己感到作呕,<br>对这永无止境的嘲讽游戏中所存在的一切事物感到作呕。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
奇迹?别开玩笑了…… | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她早已对自己说过。这个世界是地狱。<br>她是从种种显示这世界已经死透了的事物得知的:<br>在这世界之中,即便天使也终会堕落,而后苏醒为恶魔。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
在光芒中的少女就是这样。<br>在这被诅咒的终末展开中,就算是她心中原先微不足道的小洞也被残暴地刨开,并迅速扩大——<br>荒废,并在刹那间彻底腐朽,只留下一道冰冷的无底深渊。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
正当蕴藏其中的黑暗席卷并吞噬少女,尝试扼杀她的思绪之时,<br>她清晰地看见了光。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她看见光的视线投向那片碎片——捕捉到她眼中存在的恐慌与那明澈的认知。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
这女孩已经知道了。<br>而现在,她已无法直视来自对面的视线。<br>一言不发,哪怕一切尽在眼底。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
你此刻感到紧张吗?是否心情不安?毫不掩饰。<br>不可原谅。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
那股愤怒扭曲成厌恶与憎恨,如同滚滚黑云般显现于她的双眼之中。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
邪恶的背叛者;邪恶,邪恶的地方。<br>她紧紧抓着她的阳伞,<br>越过碎片注视着伫立于原地的光。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
仿佛冻结在原地——当然,因为她病态的意图已经被识破了。<br>这可真是令人发笑。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
对立的双眼微闭。<br>她抹除了那女孩尝试在她心中种下的一切情感之芽。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
只是,这是面单向的镜子——其中蕴藏的厌恶与冷淡也是相同。<br>光对这片不同寻常的碎片之中所蕴含的内容完全无从知晓。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
当对立的脸上失去越来越多的血色,<br>丝毫未意 识 到情势的走向——光仅能在困惑中观察着一切。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
一股突如其来的危机感扩散至身体的每一个角落。尽管她并不理解原由,她却能感受到危机就在眼前。<br>事实上,匍匐于大地的暗影如今已翻腾而起,毁灭着它所接触的一切光芒。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
黑暗向着她逼近,而她的呼吸变得愈发急促。她不禁朝着后方退了一步。<br>她几乎无法相信眼前正在发生的事情。她根本不想去相信。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
即使她已于那片耀眼的天空所带来的痛苦折磨中幸存下来,<br>某种可怕的事物再次毫无理由地显现于她的面前。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
尽管,她仍旧存活了下来。<br>而她终究意识到,生存并不是件能够妥协的事情。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
心中怀着这样的想法,光犯下了一个天大的错误。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她伸手去拿了那片玻璃——<br>那片在她彻底迷失于低谷时,给予她慰藉与方向的玻璃。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
就在她将它提至胸前时,<br>对立头颈后方的头发也飞扬起来。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
恐惧猛烈地冲击着她的全身。伴随着那永远不愿再次遭遇不幸的决意,<br>那一刹那,对立在没有任何预警的情况下靠近了光 ,<br>准备彻底夺走她的性命。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||

''The word | The girl adorned in shadows peers through the broken window into another time.<br>Her smile returns. | ||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
What a fool she was.<br>Not the girl in white, no.<br>Her. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
The vision in the glass is no memory. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
It cannot be, of course.<br>What she's seeing is a future: a future that she should have expected,<br>the fool, the idiot dreamer. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
The glass shows an unmistakable image of herself, run through with a jagged pillar of glass,<br>the wound seeming to sear her clothing and body apart in a blistering, pale, and consuming flame. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
The blank, barren lands of Arcaea stretch out far behind her, and before her,<br>coaxing the pillar with a lifted hand and a blinding, fiery glow around her shoulders,<br>is a girl clad in white, a very familiar one, though her expression is hidden from this vantage. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
It is the girl standing before her now.<br>The one she has only just met.<br>This is no memory: it's a vision of what will come to be. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Faced with this, Tairitsu retreats into herself,<br>and confronts the one truth she was determined to ignore. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Her conviction didn't matter.<br>She will never find anything good for her in this world. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
That last hope is dyed black now, drowned in despair, forgotten. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
What else would happen?<br>What was her hope for?<br>Idiocy. Tiresome, blind idiocy. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Tiresome effort.<br>Tiresome memories.<br>Tiresome existence. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Tiresome, awful, sick of it. Sick of this, sick of herself,<br>sick of everything in this never-ending, mocking play. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Miracles? No... | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She'd said it herself. This world is hell.<br>And she knows this, from the fractured ideas of worlds dead and gone:<br>even angels can one day fall and awaken to demonic form. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
The girl in light is just like that.<br>In a turn final and damning, what was once a mere pit inside her chest is clawed and spread.<br>It wastes, decays all through in an instant, leaving instead a cold and endless chasm. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
As the darkness within it creeps out to coat her insides and choke her thoughts,<br>she sees Hikari very clearly. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Sees her gaze darting to the shard—sees the panic, the clear knowledge in her eyes. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
The girl knows.<br>And now she can't face her opposite's stare,<br>won't say a word though she sees clearly. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
You're unnerved? Unsettled? Unabashed.<br>Unforgivable. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
That anger twists into hate and loathing, spilling over and arriving in her eyes. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Wicked betrayer; wicked, wicked place.<br>She tightens her grasp on her parasol,<br> | |||
looking past the shard to Hikari, who is standing still. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Frozen in place, surely, because her ill intentions have been exposed.<br>It's worth laughing about. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Tairitsu's eyes narrow, and she excises the remains of those burgeoning emotions<br>the girl had begun to cultivate within her. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
With finality she is emptied,<br>and with that, she knows what she must do. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
But this mirror is still one-way, and thus her anger as well.<br>Hikari is unable to see within this peculiar shard at all. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Unaware, she can only watch in confusion<br>as Tairitsu's countenance drains more and more of color. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
A sense of danger wells up in her, and though she can't understand why, she can feel it there.<br>In fact, shadows now seem to be crawling up from the earth, light perishing at their touch. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Darkness nears her, and her breathing shortens. She takes a step back.<br>She almost can't believe it. She certainly doesn't want to. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Even after surviving the harrowing ordeal, that blinding light sky,<br>something terrible faces her again without reason. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
But still, she had survived it.<br>And now she knows for certain that survival may not allow compromise. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
With this thought in heart and mind, Hikari makes a damning mistake. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She reaches for the one piece of glass,<br>the one that gave her comfort and direction in the midst of her lowest moment. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
When she raises it to her chest,<br>the hairs on the back of Tairitsu's neck rise up as well. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Fear pulsing through her, along with a conviction to never meet with tragedy again,<br>Tairitsu closes the distance to Hikari in an instant, without warning,<br>ready to once and for all firmly grab hold of her life. | |||

又一次的苏醒,同时也是她的第一次。<br><br>任何人于这回忆的世界中苏醒后,脑中记忆都是一片空白。她也不例外。<br><br>不过,当光线映入她的瞳孔时,她感受到了不同寻常的事物。<br>她的心跳首当其冲地加快;激情四射,渐渐涌出的失落感让她近乎咆哮起来。<br>她的手紧抓着覆盖腹部的衣服,心想自己的耳朵可能要被震聋。<br>她的双眼不自觉地眯起来,而她这才意识到自己仅拥有一只眼睛。她的面庞感受到了这一切。<br><br>“什……?”<br><br>她咳嗽几声,然后撑起身子。隔着手套,她触摸到一种可以称得上软绵绵的物质,正牢牢固定于她右眼的所在处。<br>她才发现自己带着手套。朝自己的身体看去后,她不禁疑惑起自己为何会穿着这些衣服。<br>接着,她不禁疑惑起自己为何知道衣服是什么东西。 | |||
---- | |||
她方才背靠着一面墙睡觉。经过观察,她发现自己的四周是另外三堵墙,残破得不堪入目。<br>它们将她围在这没有出路的空间中。抬起头后,少女见这里并没有屋顶,<br>却紧接着对自己为什么会觉得上头理应有个屋顶一事而感到纳闷。事实上,她察觉到自己身在何处……隐约地。<br>她沿着自己曾靠在上头睡觉的墙走着,直到发现一处她能够翻越过去的地方。<br>在清理那些砖块时,她发现它们洁白无瑕。此时,她抬头仰望,发现不仅这面墙是白色的——<br>整个世界都是一片纯白。那是片一望无际的古老,溃败的人类社会遗址,也可说成是多个文明的仿制品。<br>这太诡异了……更诡异的是:她竟然会觉得这一切很诡异。这又是为什么?<br><br>在她机缘巧合地发现那些反光的玻璃之前,她竟早已为自己目前所见的事物,以及她的身份,<br>给予了数十种推测。即使是她如今孤身一人——而且连自己的名字都不知道——的事实,<br>也为她阐述了可能性极高的推断。 | |||
---- | |||
并且,随着时间流逝,她发现的许多线索都指向她脑海中某一项特定的推测。<br><br>她天生具有强烈的自信心与好奇心。这纯白的世界只有着无尽的问题,却从未出现过答案。<br>几天过去了,那些废墟中没有答案显现。几周过去了,这些玻璃内也没有答案显现。<br>可以肯定的是,这世界充斥着玻璃、它们不断地投射着其它形形色色的,<br>更具生机的场所,仿佛在借此奚落着她。源于某种真实事物的回声与痕迹,或者说是这世界本身,<br>遍布着人类发明的仿制品。在这两个月里(虽然真正的时间可能更长),<br>她觉得自己已经看了足够多的画面以坚信某个想法。 | |||
---- | |||
这一座破旧的阶梯离她苏醒的地点已有一段距离。<br>伫立于阶梯顶端的少女,望向了天空中那起伏不平的截断部分:<br>由数以百计的Arcaea所组建而成,那是一扇不通向任何地方的残破窗户。<br>这一刻,少女开始对自己的猜测深信不疑。她打赌自己的推理便是真相。<br><br>但光凭这点还不够——根本不可能足够。这可不是光靠猜测就能确定下来的事情。<br><br>所以她在心中郑重誓言道:这整片领域就是一个谜团,不会讲述任何事情,<br>只会给出零星线索——所以她将解决这谜题,<br>找出对应的理由来。作为这领域中唯一的活物,这仿佛成为了她第一个职责。<br><br>而就在她完全接纳Arcaea的时候……<br><br>Arcaea也完全接纳了她……<br><br>……作为一间宽广且看似无边无际的档案室——不仅等待着被阅读,<br>更等待着某个人来亲身经历它们。 | |||

Another awakening, and her first.<br><br>Each one awakens in the world of memories with nothing in her head. She is no exception.<br><br>However, as light filters through her cornea the sensations that grip her are unusual. Her heart stirs first,<br>passionate, and she almost snarls at the building frustration. She grips the clothes over her stomach, and<br>thinks her ears might be deafened. Her eye squints involuntarily, and she realizes with that that she only has<br>a single eye rather than two. She feels around her face.<br><br>“Wha...?”<br><br>She coughs, and pushes herself up. What she felt through her glove was something almost soft, surrounding<br>something very solid in the place of her right eye. She realizes she’s wearing gloves. Looking over her body,<br>she wonders why she’s wearing these clothes. She wonders next why she knows what clothes are at all. | |||
---- | |||
She had been sleeping against a wall, and upon an inspection of her surroundings sees that there are three<br>others to make a four-cornered place around her, and every one of them is in extreme disrepair. Looking up<br>she sees that there’s no roof, and questions why it is she’d expected to find one in the first place. In fact, she<br>recognizes where she is... vaguely. She trudges along the wall she’d slept against until she finds one she can<br>step over. As she clears the bricks, she notices that they are entirely white. Looking up, she sees that it isn’t<br>only this wall, but the entire world that’s white. It is an infinite landscape of an old, defeated, human society,<br>or rather a pastiche of several societies. It’s bizarre... Moreover: it is bizarre she finds it bizarre. Why?<br><br>Before she even stumbles upon any reflective glass, she has already bet on tens of theories behind what<br>she’s seeing, and who she is. Even that she is alone, and that she doesn’t know her name, tells her much<br>about the potential truth.<br><br>And, over time, she finds more reason for one theory in particular. | |||
---- | |||
She was born with conviction and curiosity. The world of white presents questions but no answers. Days<br>pass, and there are no answers within the ruins. Weeks pass, and there are no answers within the glass.<br>Indeed, the world is full of glass, taunting always with views of other, more vivid and varied places. Echoes,<br>imprints of something real, exactly the world itself, so full of what must be copies of human invention.<br>After two months, though it could be more, she feels she has seen enough to believe something, and<br>with confidence.<br><br>While atop a broken stairway someplace far away now from where she’d awakened some time ago, she<br>gazes at an undulating and segmented portion of the sky: a seemingly broken window to nothing, crafted<br>from over a hundred shards of Arcaea. She becomes sure of herself in this moment. She can bet her<br>judgment is the truth.<br><br>But it’s not enough, and never enough. It can’t be settled with speculation. | |||
---- | |||
So she vows: this realm is a mystery, telling nothing and offering little, so she will solve it and find its reason.<br>As the only being of this realm, it seems, this will be her first duty.<br><br>And as she fully accepts the Arcaea...<br>So too do the Arcaea fully accept her...<br><br>...as a vast and seemingly endless archive, not only to be read, but to be lived through. | |||

夜色将至。屋外,太阳所溢出的琥珀色暮光马不停蹄地想要从天际溜走,奈何被草坪中的那几台装置捕捉并卷入,<br>转变为近似月光的柔和射线。<br><br>这场宴会带有种独特的气氛。虽然庄园外一个人都没有,但是对上流人士来说,<br>保持形象似乎比任何事都来得重要。她了解这一切——从一开始便是。她坐在较暗一点的地方,<br>而被捕捉的阳光则重现于她如今无法触及的天花板与阶梯。少女静静地思考着潜藏于那些渊博知识之中的涵义。<br><br>“拉薇妮雅。”<br><br>她的视线从葡萄酒杯上移走。而她的未婚夫(穿着整齐,甚至能用古板来形容,<br>但是姿态相当轻松自如)正站在她的面前。<br><br>“这玻璃杯里装的应该不是葡萄酒,对吧?”<br><br>她用那只正常的眼睛注视着杯中的液体,答道:“这是苹果酒……多纳文。” | |||
---- | |||
“不错。”他笑着回应,一边环顾房间的四周。<br>少女茫然地瞧着他的表情,而他假笑着。“妈妈与大家都说喝少许葡萄酒对身体有好处……”<br>他道,再次朝她瞥去,“我告诉你,那些都是胡说八道。你有见过喝醉酒的人吗?”<br><br>她想了想,畏缩道:“没有。”<br><br>“那就好,没见过是好事。”他轻笑一声,转过身去,“我接下来要去跟摩根聊聊,<br>不过随时欢迎你加入我们。”<br><br>少女点了点头,多纳文就走去壁炉旁的那群老朋友们身边。 | |||
---- | |||
一如往常,形象的维护是必不可少的。在引线被卷起存入地上的灯笼前,<br>那凹槽中的火焰只把自身的光辉投出几英寸远。房间的其余场所一片黑暗,却使人感到安心。<br>挂在上方的几个灯笼刚好提供了足够让人们进行阅读、辨识各自面孔,<br>以及分配经过了精挑细选的食物和一瓶瓶饮料所需要的光线。在那半面为玻璃的墙壁外部,<br>如今室外景色模糊不清,隐约能够辨识出野花、石头与溪流:笼罩于深蓝夜幕之下,仿佛一条绸缎。<br>宴会上有二十位来宾,一半在这个房间里,其他人可能在大厅或是某处的书房——或许是图书馆也说不定。<br>她所知道的只有这么多。<br><br>她细细品尝了她的苹果酒。从未尝试苹果酒的她,发现这酒也只是真的有味道而已。<br>少女回忆起某种更好的滋味和感觉,但如今她的思绪却被迫集中于舌头上的灼烧感。<br>总体感受:相当地不舒服。她再次肯定了自己的看法。<br><br>她将玻璃杯搁在一旁那张矮桌的奇异桌布上。她坐了下来,凝听、观察着四周,<br>几分心不在焉地抚摸着于她的另一只眼中绽放的花瓣。 | |||
---- | |||
她听见多纳文说,“但仔细想想,他们现在已经做了那么多了。<br>我第一次听到这主意的时候,我甚至觉得这完全行不通。”<br><br>“嗯,查尔斯对这一点十分确信。”另一位来宾说道——不是摩根,而是娜塔莉亚。<br><br>“真让人意外,”多纳文认同道,手指游离于发梢。<br><br>“一个完整的世界,全部由人类的双手打造……”他说,“我们人类可真了不起。” | |||

It’s early evening. Outside, the twilight amber flowing out from the sun tries to slip by without pause, but<br>the devices within the surrounding meadows catch and spool it, changing it to rays more similar to what<br>might be cast from the moon.<br><br>The party has a certain atmosphere. Though there are no eyes without the manor, the fact is that<br>maintaining an image is paramount to those of upper echelons. She knows this, all of this, innately. Sitting<br>in a darker place, with sunlight captured and held at ceilings and staircases presently beyond her reach, she<br>considers the implications of this knowledge in calm and in silence.<br><br>“Lavinia.”<br><br>She looks up from her wine glass. The fiancé (dressed very well, almost stuffily, but in casual posture) is<br>standing before her.<br><br>“There isn’t actually wine in that glass, is there?”<br><br>She looks at it through her one proper eye. She answers: “It’s cider... Donovan.” | |||
---- | |||
“Good,” he says with a smile, looking out toward the rest of the room. She looks at his expression blankly.<br>He smirks. ”Mum and the rest say a little wine is good...” he says, glancing at her again. “It’s a load of<br>nonsense, I tell you. Have you ever seen a drunk man?”<br><br>She thinks, wincing. “I haven’t.”<br><br>“Well then, let it remain that way.” He chuckles, then turns away. “I’ll go speak with Morgan. Join us<br>whenever you like.”<br><br>She nods, and Donovan moves to their mutual childhood friend near the fireplace. | |||
---- | |||
As always, images need to be maintained. The fire throws its light only a few feet out from the pit before the<br>threads of it are wound away, stored into lanterns on the floor. The rest of the room is dark, but comforting.<br>It’s a setting to relax within. A few lanterns above give just enough illumination for reading, seeing each<br>other’s faces, and the spread of carefully selected portions of food along with bottles of drink. Just outside<br>the room, through half-glass walls, an almost untame scene of wildflowers, stones, and streams is dimly<br>visible: wrapped in a midnight blue, almost like satin. There are twenty guests at the party, half in this room,<br>the rest in the halls or somewhere in other studies—perhaps the library. This is as much as she knows.<br><br>She drinks her cider, tastes it. She notes that it has a taste at all, not having had much experience with cider<br>herself. She recalls something about a better taste and sensation, but in the moment now she is compelled<br>to focus on the burn along her tongue. Overall: quite unpleasant. That is her determination.<br><br>She puts the glass down on the fanciful doily of the short table beside her. She sits, listens, and watches,<br>touching the flower petals blooming from her other eye rather absently. | |||
---- | |||
She hears Donovan say, “But to think they’ve done so much already. When I first heard of the idea, I was<br>sure it wasn’t possible.”<br><br>“Well, Charles is quite sure it is,” says another of the guests—not Morgan, but Nathalia.<br><br>“Astounding,” Donovan grants, running his fingers through the top of his hair.<br><br>“A whole entire world, made by human hands,” he says. “Mankind is quite something.” | |||

片刻前,她的目光飘忽于灯笼摇曳的光线,现在她则找寻起自己的未婚夫来。<br>她再度伸手拿起玻璃杯,啜了一小口;这样足够让她想起为什么当初要把它搁在一旁了。<br><br>创造世界的事情,根本只是他们脑中不可靠的幻想而已。他们没有更深入地讨论。他们其实并不了解它。<br>那群人究竟说过哪些他们真正感兴趣的话题——说实话,她没法准确地回想起来。真让人心烦意乱。<br>有时候,她甚至觉得他们根本就没在说话。少女开始感到厌烦。她起身离开客厅,走去那些更豪华,<br>更有夜晚魅力的大厅;穿过几间虽有亲切感,但对她而言依然陌生的房间。她将这儿探索了一遍,<br>发现了一条未点灯的漆黑路径,以及几扇把手似乎上了锁,却看不见锁孔的门。能够打开的那些门后方,<br>是几位男女在房里,聊天的声音小到听不清楚。<br>他们虽然注意到她的存在,但只是瞥了一眼,就回到方才谈话或休息的状态。 | |||
---- | |||
她想去外边走走。<br><br>先进的科技遍布于这座庄园,但庄园整体却与古老的“阶级制度”理念相融。没错,那些调光器十分奇特,<br>而这整片人造的荒野也极为古怪。不果这其中让她最感兴趣的科技,是安置在花园中的那些光能转换装置。<br>她虽然知晓它们,却是初次亲眼所见。<br><br>用单个词语来形容:她很“好奇”。<br><br>人们总重复着单调乏味的社交活动,使今日与过去的千百天几乎毫无差别,而她对涉猎此类日子毫无兴趣。<br>生命与创造皆无比迷人,从中选出一者难如登天。 | |||
---- | |||
但就在她缓缓靠近通往前车道的大门时……<br><br>就在她的手指触摸到眼前那巨大的木把手时……<br><br>她明白过来,外头没有任何事物——至少对她而言,从一开始便是如此。<br>这整个世界上,没有任何其他能让她容身的地方。<br>她的归属并不是于草坪中赞赏那堆机械科技,而是那间狭窄的准夫妻起居室。<br><br>“外部”仅仅是个想法。一个毫无营养,转瞬即逝的概念。<br><br>这可不是个会让她感到开心的领会。<br><br>她的手从门把手上滑落。随即她转过身,站在一盏吊灯底下。<br>那吊灯上面装饰的每一片镜片都映照着这一刻的世界别处的景象——<br>总是不断地转换,展现着那些她无法前去的场所。<br>柔和的,宛如星空般的彩灯环绕在固定装置的周围,让那物体与这整片场地都显得过于虚幻。<br>她的眼神、她的嘴唇,未阐述任何思绪。步伐声中燃起些许不满,她步履艰难地回到了宅邸之中。 | |||

Her eye had wandered to the flickering of a lantern, and now it seeks the expectant husband. She reaches<br>for her glass and takes a sip; it’s enough to make her remember why she had put it down in the first place.<br><br>The matter of a created world is only really a fickle fancy of theirs. They do not discuss it much. They do not<br>much understand it. What little they might have to say of true interest, she can’t, in fact, properly remember.<br>Irritating. At times, it even feels to her like they aren’t speaking at all.<br><br>The girl grows impatient. She stands and passes out of the sitting room into more lavish, more evening-<br>themed halls, passing rooms with which she’s familiar, but only vaguely. She explores, finding stretches of<br>unlit, pitch-black paths, and doors that seem to be locked though their knobs bear no holes for unlocking.<br>What doors are open show rooms of a few men and women each, chatting too quietly to discern. If they<br>ever notice her presence, they only look her way a moment before returning to conversation or rest. | |||
---- | |||
She wants to go outside.<br><br>The manor has some technological sophistication to it, but is married to its ideals of old “class”. Yes, the<br>dimming canisters are curious, and the manufactured wilds are peculiar, but what interests her the most<br>are the light-transforming machines in the gardens. She knows of them, but has yet to see them firsthand.<br><br>In a word, she is “curious”.<br><br>The humdrum of a social gathering so often repeated that this day feels like a thousand identical others is<br>not something she wishes to dabble in long. Lives and creations are too fascinating to ever take either for<br>granted. | |||
---- | |||
But as she approaches the doors to the front driveway...<br><br>As her fingers slip upon the wood of the grand handles before her...<br><br>She knows, innately, that there is nothing past there, nothing for her. In the entire world, there is nowhere<br>else she could be. Her place is not in the meadows admiring mechanisms, it is in the sitting room with the<br>husband-to-be.<br><br>“Outside” is only an idea. A fruitless, ephemeral concept.<br><br>That is not a favorable realization.<br><br>Dropping her hand she turns and stands below the chandelier, each of its shards showing an image of<br>somewhere else in the world, at this moment. Shifting, always, and speaking of places she cannot go.<br>Fading, almost celestial illumination hangs around the fixture, giving this place and that object a too-unreal<br>quality. Her eye, her lips, say nothing. She trudges back into the mansion, with a small fire of discontent<br>born within her. | |||

一阵狂风将墙后原野中的花瓣吹落一地。<br>纯白与蔚蓝的闪烁引起了人们的注意,宴会上的年轻人对这突然的变化纷纷表示称赞。<br>就像魔法一样。太美妙了。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她回到了休息室,也目睹了这场人造自然的旋风,<br>一场华丽的闹剧。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她尚且记得这些花朵初次被吹落的景象,想到:<br>她已经受够"回忆"起那些事物了。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
在过去的许多个小时中,她对这儿的边界进行了一番研究。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
窗户上了锁,阳台的落地窗门被封了起来,通风口也被用螺丝固定着。<br>她对现状抱持的唯一疑惑是:<br>"这些去路被堵住——是因为那群人堵住了去路,还是因为我被困在这里了?" | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她发现,暗喻与情感总会动摇少女们的心灵。<br>现实并不容易辨别清楚。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
而当她在摸遍、戳遍、翻遍、绕遍这地方后,<br>她开始去找熟悉的来宾与朋友们一起闲话家常。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
"最近的天气……"<br>"国王他……"<br>"你知道吗,上周……" | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
枯燥乏味,而且毫无营养。<br>虽然有提问从她的嘴中蹦出来,却只会被怀疑一番,甚至完全被他们忽视。<br>就像那些疑问从未被问出口——好像她根本就没有说过话一样。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她最想知道的情报——机械工程、科技与发展——<br>显然在这些来宾身上是套不出来的。<br>就在她变得越来越沮丧的时候,她选择在一旁聆听对话,终于听见: | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
"它现在可不止是个泥球了。我听说我们很快就能够完成地球化呢。" | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她对那个话题发问……但仍旧没有得到任何回应。<br>不过有这条信息就差不多足够了,所以她再次进入走廊。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
如今她伫立在那里,静静地观望着那场风暴,将自己与其联想。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她轻步走过她的未婚夫身旁。他见到她,对她露出一丝微笑。<br>他打招呼道,"拉薇妮雅,你回来啦。"而她凝视着他的西装衣领。<br>他对此未察觉分毫。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
演员们总是依照同一种方式演出。<br>何事脱颖而出,何事不同寻常——全都从未被人们所在意。<br>她的行为越来越大胆,但他们依旧遵照自己的习惯行动。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
因为得保持形象,对吧?<br>她决定直截了当地问出那长久以来压迫在她心头的问题。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
"人造的世界……它难道不是玻璃制造的吗?" | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
"……呃?你在说什……?当然不是啊,拉薇妮雅。这可不是个玩笑。" | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她睁大了眼睛,瞳孔收缩。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
在所有的疑问中,就只有这个得到了回应。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
多纳文的视线越过她的肩头,仿佛望着墙后更遥远的地方。他说:<br>"不管怎样,这不是很令人喜爱吗?几乎就像你一样惹人怜爱……" | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
但她没有作出任何回应。<br>他的回答间接印证了少女的假设,因此她下定了决心。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
就在空中以螺旋状飞舞的花瓣要平静下来的时候,<br>她走向摆满食物的长桌,驻足于面包。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
多纳文滔滔不绝地说着。<br>"我听说,他们塑造的世界最终会像是错综蔓延的山谷,没有尽头。<br>现在,它就只是一片荒地。这是个概念,你明白吗?" | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她静静聆听,将手搭在一个握柄上。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
"但是对于那些拥有足够能力包揽下来一块地的人来说,这绝对是件十分开心的事。<br>你想象一下那块新土地的可能性,拉薇妮雅。" | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她叹了一口气。又是次不会有任何结果的尝试。<br>少女的手握住那精巧而又光滑的木头。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
她灵巧地转过身,朝正等待着她的未婚夫迈出步子,<br>将自己的手甩向他的头颈。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
面包刀的锯齿止于他的皮肤。 | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
不带任何情感——甚至未含敌意的火花——她一言不发地刺穿了这男孩的喉咙,<br>贴近凝视着将要迸发而出的事物。 | |||
====英文剧情==== | |||
A windstorm scatters petals around terrain behind the walls.<br>Glints of white and sapphire catch the eye, and the youths of the party speak of the change favorably.<br>Like magic. Wonderful. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She comes back into the lounge and witnesses the swirl of artificial nature,<br>the splendor of a farce. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She remembers the first time those flowers were scattered and thinks:<br>she’s rather had enough of "remembering". | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
During the past several hours, she’s tested the boundaries. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
The windows were locked, the patio doors were barred, and the ventilation ducts were bolted.<br>The question she had to all this was:<br>"Are these shut because people shut them, or because I’m trapped in here?" | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Metaphor and emotion often swayed the hearts of young girls, she found.<br>It was difficult to determine the reality. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
When she’d had enough of poking, prodding, turning things over, and wandering,<br>she began to prattle on with other guests she knew to be acquaintances or friends. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
"The weather..."<br>"The King..."<br>"You know, the week before..." | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Tedious, and uninformative too.<br>Certain lines of questions were met with incredulity or with nothing at all,<br>as if the questions hadn’t been asked—as if she hadn’t spoken. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
What she mainly wanted to know about—engineering, technology, progress—<br>seemed to especially draw out nothing from the other guests.<br>With her frustration growing, she took to listening in instead, and eventually heard: | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
"It’s little more than a globe of dirt now. We’ll terraform it soon, I’m told." | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
And asking about that... led nowhere as well.<br>That was quite enough to know, however, and so she entered the lounge again. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She stands in it now, watching the storm, and relating to it. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
The girl steps past the fiancé, who smiles at her presence.<br>He greets her with, "Lavinia, you’re back," and she rests her gaze on his lapel.<br>He takes no particular notice of this. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
The players always seem to act in such a way.<br>What stands out, what’s unusual, is given no mind.<br>Bolder and bolder she’s gotten, but they remain always steadfast to their routines. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
To maintain the image, correct?<br>She decides to ask, outright, one question she burns to have answered. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
"The man-made world... it isn’t made of glass?" | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
"...Hm? What on...? Of course not, Lavinia. It’s not a bauble." | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Her eye goes wide. Her pupil constricts. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Of all the things, that had been it. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Donovan looks over her shoulder and through the walls, saying,<br>"At any rate, isn’t it lovely? Almost as lovely as you..." | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
But she doesn’t reply.<br>Recognizing his answer as confirmation, she settles on a decision. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
As the spiral of flowers beyond flow almost serenely through the air,<br>she moves to the table of foodstuffs, and stops before the breads. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Donovan continues.<br>"I’m told the world they’ve made will have shows like this across sprawling, endless valleys.<br>Right now, it’s only barren. A concept, you know?" | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She stops her hand over a handle, listening. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
"But it’ll surely be a delight in time, for those who can afford a spot on it.<br>And think of the potential, Lavinia." | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She exhales. It’s been another fruitless trip.<br>Her hand closes on fine, smoothed wood. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
She turns swiftly and steps to the awaiting husband,<br>swinging her hand out toward his neck. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
The bread knife’s teeth stop in his skin. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Without feeling—without even a spark of animosity—she wordlessly cuts across the boy’s throat,<br>and watches closely to see what comes out. | |||

这东西不是血。<br><br>这东西什么都不是。<br><br>这位绅士的喉咙以一种很糟糕的方式被割了开来……但是这段记忆之中缺少了“可怕”的概念。<br>与其说这是一幕破碎,残忍的画面,他的脖子现在看来更像是布满皱褶又遭撕裂的纸张。<br>里头充斥的不是“阴影”,是“负空间”:他的身体里存在着整一片虚空。<br>伤口的边隙上闪烁着星星点点的微弱白光,亮晶晶的碎片沿着她用来刺穿他的刀刃滑落下来,浮于半空……<br>单纯地悬挂于空气之中。<br><br>多纳文无法理解这一刻发生的事。大多数的来宾也因她的举动而感到畏惧万分。<br>人们倒在地上,几位女士昏了过去,多纳文则伸手去摸自己的脖子。<br>几个男人扑向她,将她的前臂拉至后方,并用力勒住她的脖子。<br>少女紧握着手中的面包刀,呆滞的表情映入丈夫迷茫的眼神。<br><br>虽然她并未对宾客的压制行动作出任何挣扎,但她注意到在多纳文的身后,有名女孩陷入了歇斯底里的恐慌。<br>她喉咙深处爆发出的声音愈加扭曲,响度如同波浪般起伏,于空气中炸裂开来。此刻,这段回忆已然破碎。 | |||
---- | |||
事情原本不该这样发展。就算再怎么经历时变,一段记忆也不该成为这种模样。<br>一名妻子,在如此安逸的时刻,无缘无故地突然出手伤害了自己的丈夫……<br><br>她曾希望引起所有人的注意力。而现在看来,她的愿望已经达成了。<br>虽然房间里有少数的人面对这股骚动仍心如止水——甚至有些人就像搞丢了人脸,没法做出表情一样——<br>但是这段记忆的确是第一次经历了如此巨大的变化。至少在这一点上,她成功了。<br><br>这片世界开始崩毁,裂痕显现于她所能看见的任何一个角落。<br>其后出现的现实事物,看上去像要因这段碎裂的记忆而出现褶皱一般。 | |||
---- | |||
她自言自语道:“比起让这整串世界成为度假胜地……这些事物肯定有更高的利用价值。”<br><br>她放开了那把面包刀,见那东西就这样禁止于原地无法移动,叹了口气。<br><br>“这可不是在偷看‘记忆’、‘回声’、‘倒影’——值得一提,也绝对不是‘玻璃’……”<br><br>房间开始渐渐地收缩。<br><br>“又是场毫无价值的梦。”<br><br>这颗星球随之分裂了。 | |||
---- | |||
当那片映像被摧毁后,四周飞速闪烁着白色的浑浊雾影。<br>那片回忆——那片玻璃中蕴含的所有声响化作急流一涌而出。<br>她闭上双眼,站在原地,耐心等待周围混乱的光线与杂音消散。<br>过后,她张开双眼,映入眼帘的虚空中只剩下飘散的微弱荧光。<br>她的心情无比复杂。<br>在又一阵绚丽的痛苦感消散后,她再次见到了她所最为熟悉,却最无法摸透真相的世界:<br>纯白与废墟的世界。由记忆所构建而成——Arcaea的领域。<br><br>“我其实挺喜欢这一片,”,她喃喃自语道,注视着正于她手掌之上转动的碎片,“但它和这世界的诞生无关。<br>况且它现在也只是个空壳了。唉……如果我可以观看它们,也请使我能够把它们赶出我的脑袋吧……”<br><br>她放手那片玻璃,没有再去看一眼。碎片回到了当初她找寻到它的地方:从地面流过的一条锐利,闪烁的河流。<br>这名为咲弥的少女将目光投送至远处狭长宽广的地平线,一边无意识地摸着嘴唇,向前迈着步子,<br>一边回想着方才记忆中的场景,将其蕴藏的价值与数千个同类进行着比较。 | |||
====英文剧情==== | |||
It isn’t blood.<br><br>It isn’t anything.<br><br>The gentleman’s throat is cut in what should be an awful way... but the memory lacks a concept of what<br>“awful” would be. Instead of a shredded, vicious image, his neck now looks akin to torn and crumpled<br>paper. Inside is not “shadow” but “negative space”: a void inside his body. The edges of the wound flicker<br>weakly with some white light, and off the blade of the knife she’d used to strike him, vibrant shards float<br>aloft... simply hanging in the air.<br><br>And Donovan can’t comprehend it. Many of the patrons, too, are in awe and horror of her act. People fall,<br>women faint, and Donovan reaches for his neck. Some men leap for her, pull back her forearm and hold her<br>at her neck. She grips the knife tightly, and with a dull expression stares into the husband’s bewildered eyes.<br><br>While she hardly struggles with the guests apprehending her, she spots behind Donovan a girl in absolute<br>hysterics on the floor. The sound of her voice becomes increasingly distorted, beginning to crackle and<br>fluctuate in volume. Already, then: the memory has broken. | |||
---- | |||
This wasn’t how it went. Even the most time-changed memories could not be altered so. For a wife to,<br>unprompted, attack her husband this way during a moment of peace...<br><br>She’d hoped to provoke a reaction, and is thus satisfied by this result. Although a few of the other people in<br>the room are unfazed by the commotion, and some even seem to have lost their faces entirely, alteration of<br>a memory to this extent is a veritable first. This, at least, has been a success.<br><br>The world begins to crack, fractures appearing wherever she can see. Reality afterward looks almost<br>wrinkled from it. | |||
---- | |||
She says to herself, “Making entire worlds for vacation... Surely there would be better uses for that.”<br><br>She lets go of the bread knife and sighs, seeing how it can’t move from the space where she’d abandoned it.<br><br>“Not a peep about ‘memory’, ‘echoes’, ‘reflections’—importantly, not ‘glass’...”<br><br>The room constricts.<br><br>“This was another worthless dream.”<br><br>The planet divides. | |||
---- | |||
White blears and obscures, briefly flashing everywhere as the image is demolished. In a rush of every<br>remembered sound contained in that recollection, in that slip of glass, she stands with her eye shut until<br>luminescence and noise fade. She opens her eye to faintly glittering empty space, her mind twists, and after<br>another wave of effulgent pain she sees again the world with which she is both most familiar, and most<br>confounded by:<br><br>The world of white and ruins. The memory-shaped realm of Arcaea.<br><br>“I’d had a good feeling about this one,” she mumbles, watching the rotation of a shard just above her palm.<br>“But it wasn’t responsible for this world’s creation, and it was almost empty to boot. Hmph. If I can watch<br>them, let me remove them too...”<br><br>She dismisses the glass, not looking as it returns to the space where she’d found it: a glinting, sharpened<br>river flowing above the ground. The girl named Saya stares off into the plain horizon, stepping forth while<br>touching her lip absently, and reviewing the events of the recent memory, comparing them all to the wealth<br>of a thousand others. | |||

“在那些地方,人类可以成为上帝。”<br><br>这是她得出的结论。<br><br>眼中有花朵绽放的少女在脑中合上了记忆之书。这算不上完全毫无意义——顶多是一大半毫无意义罢了。<br><br>她刚开始时曾感十分沮丧:她所造访的那个世界几乎是被她立即断定为不具有任何价值,<br>但那看似无意义之处却向她展示出人类重要的潜力。不过……照目前来看……这还不是很重要。<br><br>胜过关于“如何”的假设,有关“原因”的假设更加迫使她继续前行。<br>这是她的又一场旅程,穿越这世界内大量的废墟,怀抱着没有根据的希望,只为找寻答案,<br>或者至少找到一条打了擦边球的线索。这向来都是使她走下去的重要动力。<br>但如今,她的第二个目标浮现了出来——大约在她目睹过两百段回忆之后。 | |||
---- | |||
“似乎是找不到任何可能用于重建的新东西了。”她低语道,从近处稀疏的玻璃溪流中召唤过来一片碎片,<br>“但我倒认为,哪怕它们有一点点价值都是件好事。”<br><br>这一片玻璃所散发的光芒吸引了她的目光,而少女也仔细地观赏了它所带来的过往景象,心不在焉地咕哝道,<br>“就快要到家了……”<br><br>她将碎片留于掌心,穿过一座对她而言极为熟悉的桥梁。<br>在她左手边的是一片杂乱无章的废墟,也许曾经是座城市;<br>她的右手边则是混乱成堆的玻璃和石头——相当于什么都不存在。<br>她沿着这遥远的路途前进,终于回到了她“出生”的场所,不去在意自己究竟走了多少步。<br><br>她花了她所需要花费的时间,抵达了有着四面坍塌墙壁的地方。墙壁之中有着一颗闪闪发光的巨大水晶球——<br>一个尚未完成的破碎球体,看着宛如碎裂的贝壳一般。笑容、泪水、死亡与欢庆在它的表面不断闪烁。<br>鲜花、旷野、沙漠、海洋……动物、人类、科技…… | |||
---- | |||
她并不知道自己是否能透过拼凑回忆来重建一个世界。<br>她甚至不清楚自己能不能就靠将它们以如此形式聚于一处,便让它们“连结”在一起……但她想要尝试一下。<br><br>少女手上的新碎片所散发出的光芒使她微微眯起眼睛。“就让我看看,<br>你能展示给我多少事物吧。”她大声说道。<br><br>它打开一个通道,而少女也缓缓融入了这一段新时间中。<br>顷刻间,她看到了一个人造光芒充盈的世界,几乎无穷无尽地遍布着冲破了夜空云层的人造摩天大楼。<br>在大楼之间,暗色的车辆破空而过。一股令人不快的气体涌入了她的肺部。刺耳的噪音充斥了她的双耳。<br>她拟造了一份人格,也拟造了一段过往——面对着这一切,她泰然自若。<br>数百个问题浮现于她的脑海,而她将会对其逐个进行解答。<br>无论将要付出何等的代价,也无论需要做什么事情。 | |||
====英文剧情==== | |||
“In these other places, humans can act as gods.”<br><br>That is what she learned.<br><br>The girl with a flower in her eye closes the book of that memory in her mind. It hadn’t been completely<br>worthless, only mostly.<br><br>It had frustrated her at first: the world she had visited was one she had quickly deemed frivolous, but the<br>frivolity revealed something important to her about the potential of mankind. Still... for now... that wasn’t<br>very important.<br><br>More than theories on “how”, theories of “why” compelled her onward. This had been another of her<br>journeys out through the ruins of the world in a scattershot hope of discovering that answer, or to even<br>brush against it tangentially. That was always her focal drive, but a secondary one had been made manifest<br>after she’d witnessed about two hundred of the memories. | |||
---- | |||
“It didn’t have anything new for a potential reconstruction,” she whispers, beckoning a shard from a nearby,<br>sparse stream of glass, “but I suppose it’s good that it had some sort of value.”<br><br>She lets the gleam of the new piece catch her eye, and she scrutinizes the vision of the past it offers,<br>muttering absently, “Almost home...”<br><br>She carries the fragment over her palm, crossing a bridge with which she’s become very familiar. On her left<br>is a haphazard pile of what once might have been cities, on her right is a chaotic mass of glass and stone—<br>recognizable as nothing. She marches the long way back to the place where she was “born”, uncaring of<br>how many steps it takes.<br><br>She takes however long she needs to reach and stop before a place of four fallen walls, between them an<br>immense sphere of shimmering crystal—an unfinished sphere broken apart, like a cracked shell. Smiles,<br>tears, deaths, and celebrations flicker in and out its facets. Flowers, plains, deserts, oceans... Animals,<br>people, technology... | |||
---- | |||
She doesn’t know if she can recreate a world by piecing together memories. She doesn’t even know if she<br>can truly “connect” them at all by gathering them together like this... But she can try.<br><br>She squints lightly to the gleam of the new piece she’s brought. “Let’s see how much you can show me,” she<br>says aloud.<br><br>So it opens, and the girl fades into a new time. In short order, she sees a world brimful with artificial glow,<br>crowded by endless and nigh-infinite towers of man reaching through clouds of an evening sky, and dark<br>vehicles roaring through the air. An unpleasant atmosphere flows into her lungs. Cacophony fills her ears. As<br>she assumes an identity, assumes a new past, she looks on, unmoved. A hundred questions rise in her<br>mind... She will have them answered. No matter what that takes, no matter what needs to be done. | |||

白昼虽然美好,无尽持续下去却只会使人感到乏味。<br>无论是谁,凡是长时间待在日光之下,都会自然而然地渴望起一抹月色。<br><br>即便对她而言,也不例外。<br><br>“这段日照至少持续了八十天吧?”<br>“还是说……七个月?”<br>“或许……说不定已经有一年了……”<br><br>天空明亮的光芒又一次掠过墙壁的缝隙,倾洒在这个被她称之为家的地方。<br>睡眼惺忪的她,正在地板上懒散地翻滚着,忽然之间双眼就捕捉到了这束光线。<br><br>“唔,真是的。是时候关灯了啦……”她鼓着小脸说道。 | |||
---- | |||
尽管嘴上不满,她依然坐起身来——<br>依然是揉着眼睛,伸着懒腰。<br>扶着地面缓缓站起,摸索着找到门,准备好迎接又一个“清晨”。<br>面前,又会出现好似无边无际的Arcaea世界。<br><br>虽然是场寻找不到快乐的探险,虽然是段毫无任何新发现的旅途——<br>但自从她于这片寂静之地苏醒过来后,有两件事物从未变化:<br><br>她那颗跃动的心脏,与面前那片广阔的天空:两者始终闪耀着光辉。<br><br>“那么……!”她轻声念道,“现在是晨练时间!”<br><br>她将手朝前探去,跟着一小串玻璃飞舞而至。<br>并不是回忆的碎片——<br>并不是“Arcaea”——<br>只是一片随处可见的,再普通不过的玻璃碎片。<br>当那碎片旋转着靠近时,她扑向了碎片,脑海中立刻显现出又一段故事。 | |||
---- | |||
她找到的这个“家”,坐落于一座远离尘世的孤寂海岛之上,是间有些老旧的沙滩小屋。<br>不过严格来说,这片沙滩周围也没有实质意义上的海水。<br>粉碎的残亘断瓦布满了沙滩的表面,乍一看倒的确像极了被遗弃的贝壳碎片;<br>而这片好似被孤立的内陆中央,则矗立着一整片怪诞的巨型白色木柱。<br>由于她的干预,随着日子一天天过去,这些本就有些残旧的“家”更是由内而外地被逐渐分解:<br>如今她已经拆走了小屋的窗户与墙壁,改造成几座临时的阶梯——用这些材料建造了赛道,甚至一<br>节隧道,只为了能够在闪闪发亮的赛道上欢快地奔跑、蹦跳,给自己的双腿带来少许不同的体验感。<br><br>只需做出星点让步,便足以造就这一切劳动果实。<br>自她苏醒之刻,早已过了许多天,而Arcaea的世界也总是被她轻而易举地改造,<br>仿佛整个世界都听令于她脑中的异想天开。<br><br>但在向着一定距离以外的那片幻影海洋眺望时,她却留意到沙滩上有什么事物正闪烁着光芒。<br>有一些稀疏的物体,分散于海水之中。<br><br>她朝那儿瞥了一眼,略带不满地从鼻中吐出一口气,挤出一抹虚弱的假笑。 | |||

An endless day could be dull. Spending too long under an overeager sun—anyone would start to yearn for<br>a moon.<br><br>Even for her, that sentiment holds true.<br><br>"Eighty days of light?"<br>"Seven months of light?"<br>"A year... maybe..."<br><br>The white of the sky has once again broken through the cracks in the walls of this place she calls home,<br>and it seems her sleeping body had found the rays while rolling over the floor.<br><br>She grumbles, "Turn it off already..." | |||
---- | |||
But still, she picks herself up.<br>Still, she rubs her eyes and stretches her arms.<br>She stands and finds the door, ready to face another "day" in the seemingly boundless world of Arcaea.<br><br>An adventure that hasn't always been a delight, and travels that haven't always led to discoveries.<br>Despite that, ever since she'd first awakened a tabula rasa, two things have always remained consistent:<br><br>both her heart and the sky have always been shining.<br><br>"Alright...!" she says under her breath. "Some exercise first!"<br><br>She holds out her hand before her and a section of glass flies her way.<br>Not memory glass—<br>Not "Arcaea"—<br>It is an ordinary, typical sheet, albeit a large one. When it spins close, she jumps onto it,<br>and immediately calls another. | |||
---- | |||
The home she found is an old beach house on a lonely island apart from the abandoned mélange-cities<br>found everywhere else in the world. It's a beach without an ocean, houses scattered around its shores like<br>abandoned shells; and deeper inland is a field of strange, gigantic poles of white wood. The homes have been<br>picked apart over time, from within and without, in her tampering. Now she whisks away their walls and<br>windows to create a makeshift set of stairs—to make a racing track, and then a tunnel. She quickly leaps<br>and runs through the gleaming passage, if only to give her legs feeling.<br><br>All this took was a little acceptance. Days after awakening, it was a simple matter to make the world of Arcaea<br>bend to her whimsy.<br><br>But far below her, just above the sands of the phantom sea, something glints: something sparse and scattered<br>throughout the water.<br><br>Throwing a glance that way, she huffs a breath from her nose, and sports a weak smirk. | |||

位于少女脚底下的那些玻璃总是那么乖巧听话。<br>而那些名为“Arcaea”的特异碎片,在她面前却始终展现出几分桀骜不驯。<br>在这饱含回忆的世界之中,几乎没有多少记忆碎片愿意主动跟随她。<br>往往都是她自行靠近,并试着观赏这些顽固不化的独特存在。<br><br>少女此刻心中的怒气,却更像是孩子的抱怨。她自那面由水晶组成的平台一跃而下。<br>身后,那被她亲手组建的结构立刻坍塌成了无用的碎块。<br>在重力完全掌控她的身体前,她举起右手,将远处自己床上的毯子召唤过来,兴奋地蜷缩了进去。<br>随后,她又将某件十分笨重,却无比柔软的事物招引了过来。<br>仅是片刻过后,她的身子便跌进了这象征怠情的王位——或者说,是一张巨大而无色的沙发椅。<br>紧接着,她从座椅中坐起身,左摇右晃地飘浮在自己家上方的半空中,半凝视着眼前好比墓园的大地万物。 | |||
---- | |||
她再次深呼吸;愉快,但更多的是心满意足。<br>这次的“晨跑”如同往常一样使她感到十分幸福。<br>但当视线又一次落在遥远的天际时,她的心情不可避免地再次低落起来:<br>直到目前,她都无法获悉自己所在的这个世界的大致面积,更是对另一边天涯所存的事物一无所知。<br>也许她甚至未曾探索完这世界的三分之一……硬说是十六分之一也不为过。<br>这世界宽广无比,其中五花八门的回忆更是无穷无尽。<br>她飘游于无风的空气中,合上双眼,一阵沉思。<br>这个古老而巨大的场所,简直就像一锅大杂烩。<br>她认为,如此充满不确定性与怪诞事物的世界,不可能只是为她而存在着。<br><br>她再次张开双眼,面对着这片耀眼的天空。<br><br>或许世界的另一端,此刻正是满天星斗。<br>或许在那片天空之下,正有着其他的少女仰望着天空,期盼着白昼的到来。<br><br>身着红衣的少女沉默着,手指紧紧攥住了披在肩上的毛毯。<br><br>没有尽头的日子,其实正是一场永不消逝的崭新序章。而即将于今日发生的一切,也仍是个未知数。 | |||
====英文剧情==== | |||
The glass beneath her feet bends so easily, but the peculiar glass—the Arcaea—has always been somewhat...<br>no, absurdly recalcitrant with her. In this world of memories, hardly any recollections will follow her,<br>and most can only be viewed or visited.<br><br>In an almost childish huff, the girl jumps from a crystal platform. Behind her, the structures she's made<br>all collapse, piece by piece. Before gravity fully takes her, she holds out her right hand, calling for the blanket<br>from her bed and swirling into it joyously. Then, she calls for something heavy, something soft. In a few<br>moments after falling, she is caught by a throne of indolence: a hefty, colorless armchair. Thus, she sits, <br>hanging in the skies above her home, half-gazing at tombstone horizons. | |||
---- | |||
She exhales again; she's pleased, satisfied. Another successful lovely "morning" run. Still looking out to<br>the distance, her thoughts drift to less pleasant places: to questions about the size of this world, and what<br>else it might contain. Has she even seen a third of it? Even a sixteenth? It's a too-big place, and there are <br>too many assorted memories. As she rocks along the windless air, she lets her eyelids drop and she considers<br>that fact. It's some immense place; it's some old and mish-mash, jumbled place. She feels it probably can't<br>just be a world of wonders and oddities exclusively meant for her.<br><br>She opens her eyes to the bright sky again.<br><br>Somewhere, perhaps on the other side of the world, that sky is full of stars.<br>Under that sky, perhaps other girls are gazing upward and wishing for daylight.<br><br>The girl in red grips the front of the blanket wrapped around her shoulders.<br><br>Days without end mean it's always a new beginning, and no telling what a journey will hold. | |||

“唔姆,我一直在思考着……”<br><br>她自言自语道,懒洋洋地陷入自己的飞行座椅之中。<br><br>“那上面……真的会有太阳吗?”<br><br>面对那圣洁的苍穹,她不禁眯起眼睛,苦思冥想。<br><br>到底是什么原因,使得光线如此均匀地倾洒在这个地方?<br><br>直至如今,她一直致力于笔直朝前走。那么……何不尝试朝正上方前进? | |||
---- | |||
想到这儿,她的脸上闪过顽皮的笑容。<br><br>下一秒,她已经站在了座椅之上,将毛毯抛向半空,任其自由飘落。<br>正当毛毯飘荡之际,一根从某处腾空而起的木质柱状物与其擦身而过,被她用一跟细长的金属棒拦截在了空中。<br>为了保险起见,她探出一只脚抵在木柱边沿,并久久凝视着木柱。<br>她心中明白,这根看似平平的木柱,在某些世界中却作为传递力量的象征存在着。<br>她将一只脚放置于下方的另一条长棒上——于千米高空之上,将一条腿与一条手臂腾空高举——天不怕地不怕的她,<br>就这样单脚站立于这片来自旧世界的碎块之上。<br><br>好似最后的告别一般,凝望着一路蔓延至地平线的城镇与郊野,而后终于将视野转向高空……<br>她心里对这段航程的飞行距离完全没底;倒不如说,手边没架梯子的确显得有些不太安全。<br><br>坐落于地面上的房屋又进一步崩塌起来,唯独她自己的小屋幸免于难。<br>门板、床架、衣橱、窗户……无数毁坏的事物接连不断地飞腾至高空,<br>而她曾用作手工的残羹断瓦也被抽离了沙滩。<br>所有的碎屑与零件都开始以一种确切而稳定的形式汇聚起来,逐渐组成某种特定的结构。<br>但女孩算不上一个合格的建筑师:她搭建出来的这座塔楼显得摇摇欲坠,<br>以一系列无法形容,好似突发奇想的诡异角度七歪八扭地朝着穹顶缓慢延伸着。 | |||
---- | |||
不幸的是,她的小岛上根本没有足够的原材料。<br>当有限的资源用尽后,她只能对着自己面前的半成品干瞪眼,埋怨这座塔的高度甚至没有到达一千米。<br><br>一边发出不满的嘟哝身,她将目光转移至前方的地平线,朝着那方向抬起了手掌。<br>屏气凝神,试图将更多的物体吸引而来……只是过了好半天都没有发生任何事。<br><br>但这也是母庸质疑的——原本就不该有任何事情发生。<br><br>虽然身怀神通广大的力量,但她毕竟不是真正的神。 | |||
====英文剧情==== | |||
"Hm, but you know..."<br><br>She mutters to herself, eased into her flying seat.<br><br>"Is there a sun up there, I wonder...?"<br><br>She squints at the heavens above, and quietly contemplates.<br><br>What makes the light so evenly spread throughout this place?<br><br>Until now, her travels have always been forward, so… Why not try upward? | |||
---- | |||
A mischievous smile flashes across her face.<br><br>She stands in her chair and drops off the blanket, letting it fall toward the ground. As it drifts drown,<br>a wooden column launches up past it. She jumps from her chair and grabs hold of the new arrival by a short,<br>metal bar. With her feet planted against the column's side for security, she gives it a longer glance. It is a pillar,<br>she knows, used in other worlds to convey power and communications. She puts one foot down on another<br>bar below, and like that—with one leg and one arm free, far above the ground—she stands boldly on a broken<br>piece of an old world.<br><br>She gazes to the urban and suburban sprawl on the horizon one more time, and then turns her gazing upward.<br>She can't be sure how far flight will carry her: she knows she'll need a ladder to be safe.<br><br>The houses below, hers excepted, start breaking down even more. Panels, bed frames, armoires and windows<br>glide upward, and the debris she used and let collapse before is torn out of the sand. Everything begins to<br>amass, surely and steadily, into a defined structure. But the girl is not an architect. Her tower is ramshackle,<br>slowly building toward the heavens at odd, sharp, and often sudden angles. | |||
---- | |||
Unfortunately, her island is not replete with usable material. After running out, she frowns halfway at her design,<br>feeling annoyed that it cannot even reach a kilometer into the sky.<br><br>Grumbling, she turns her eyes on the horizon again and lifts her palm toward it.<br>She concentrates, pulls... and nothing happens.<br><br>But that's only natural. That is of course.<br><br>As powerful and masterful as she may be, she is no god. | |||

她气馁地放下了手掌,心中决定亲自进行一番改造。<br>比起建造一整座高塔,还不如搭建一道通向天空的螺旋阶梯。<br>于是一个小时后——又一个小时后、又一个小时后、又两个小时……<br>她终于完成了手头的新任务,甚至连自己都不禁佩服起自己的杰作。<br>这不明所以的无规律结构看上去仍旧十分滑稽,但她坚信这种形式的结构绝对比上一次的要合理一万倍。<br>她确信自己应该被人拍着后背,好好表扬一番。<br><br>新的路径已经完工,她自然刻不容缓地登上了阶梯。<br>那把浮空座椅近距离陪伴在她身旁,随时准备接住也许会不慎失足的她。<br>当女孩往上迈进时,她更是抽走了位于最下端的梯级,接续在整体结构的最上方。<br>没过多久,她便意识到自己是在攀爬一段永无止境地延伸的螺旋长梯。<br>穿过层层云雾,直到抵达最高点。 | |||

这次旅行意外地演变为长途跋涉,以至于她好几次需要躺在沙发椅上一觉睡到“天亮”。<br>终于,在大约四天后,天堂映入了她的眼帘,而她也随之学到一个新的知识点:<br>所谓“天堂”,根本就是一片厚厚的云层,不论什么事物都无法穿透。<br><br>当位于最底端的阶梯忽然开始拒绝被转移至阶梯最上方时,她的旅途也随之停滞了;<br>面前的阶梯卡在云团之中寸步不前,无论用何种方式指引都纹丝不动。<br>她只得放弃尝试,任梯级悬挂在她的身旁。<br>下一刻,她的眼中闪出坚决的光,径直冲向了这段阶梯的终点。<br><br>此刻,位于阶梯顶端的少女已经将建筑碎石、窗户玻璃与断柱呈扇形展开于脚下,创造出一个安全的平台。<br>紧接着,她将手臂高举过头——探入了云团之中。<br>而今,她察觉到那片纯白居然正对着自己的手臂反向发力。<br>但她还是不想半途而废,踮起脚尖,直到只剩鞋尖着地,不依不饶地尝试着穿透云层。<br><br>然而,她发现自己的办法终究是完全行不通。 | |||
---- | |||
“不会吧……?”她诧异地惊呼出声。<br><br>只不过,还没等她沮丧多久,余光中就有什么事物吸引了她的注意力。<br><br>那是位于她右侧的某处角落之中的一道反光。<br>离开天堂边界时,她似乎惊动了一整团闪着光的物体,使得它们从云层之中落了下来。<br><br>她凝神一看,发现那是一整群Arcaea——二十枚,或者更多——它们正朝着她徐徐飘来。<br><br>而一袭红衣的少女也意识到了这件事。<br><br>静静地站在自己亲手修建的地面之上,在Arcaea那片不见太阳的纯白色天空下——<br>她的面前,第一次出现了会与自己产生了共鸣的回忆。 | |||

She drops her hand in defeat and decides it's time to renovate. Instead of a tower, a spiral set of stairs. <br>After an hour, and another hour, and another hour, and two more, her work is finally done and she is impressed<br>with the result. It still looks ridiculous, and more than a little haphazard, but this amalgamation, she is certain,<br>is much more sensible. She figures she deserves a pat on the back.<br><br>With the new formation complete, she wastes no time in beginning her ascent. One by one, step by step, she<br>rises with her armchair floating close by, ready to catch her should she fall. As the girl makes her way, she pulls<br>from the bottom of the stairs and sends those steps to the top. Soon after, she finds herself climbing an<br>ever-building, ever-breaking staircase. Through layers of fog, to the highest point. | |||
---- | |||
The trip becomes a long one, during which she sometimes must have a seat or even sleep through the "night".<br>And, maybe after what would be four days, heaven comes within her sight. And she learns this: "heaven" is an<br>immense and impenetrable wall of clouds.<br><br>Her progress is halted when a step she sends from the bottom refuses to become the top, stuck on the fluff of<br>the air and unable to move any further up. She withdraws it and leaves it to hang beside her. And, with a <br>etermined gaze, she rushes her way up the final flight.<br><br>At the top, the girl fans the pieces, panes, and pillars out underneath her for more of a platform, and she lifts<br>her hands over her head—into the clouds. Here she finds that the white resists her touch, but still she pushes<br>on, standing on the toes of her boots to see through if she can.<br><br>And here, she finds, she cannot. | |||
---- | |||
"Really...?" she wonders aloud.<br><br>But in her moment of despondence, something catches her eye.<br><br>Out the corner of her right: a glint. In fact, a bevy of glints, dropping from the clouds after she's gone and <br>disturbed them.<br><br>She looks, to find a small crowd of perhaps twenty Arcaea—perhaps even more—coming toward her.<br><br>And the girl in red realizes.<br><br>In these sunless skies of Arcaea, standing on an invented ground, she has found the first group of memories<br>in this world which are inextricably attuned to her.<br> | |||

一股温柔的香味,正弥漫于空气之中。<br><br>四周回荡着小镇居民与孩子们的嬉闹声。<br><br>天朗气清,令人心旷神怡。<br><br>视野中满是炊烟袅袅——在街道上漫步,嗅着让人垂涎欲滴的浓郁香气,<br>她确信有谁正在做饭,或许还烘焙着甜点。<br><br>仰首一望,耀眼夺目的太阳高挂在万里无云的蓝天之上。<br><br>这是一个崭新的回忆世界。她默默地伫立在原地,正全神贯注地吸收着所有新鲜的体验感。<br><br>这段回忆属于一名少女——她是一位工匠的助手,而此时的她正值差事途中。<br>不过话说回来,这名助手正在给怎样的工匠干活?<br>拥有一头玫瑰色长发的女孩尚不知晓存于这段回忆的细节,却也对此满不在乎。 | |||

眼前的这里——<br><br>“这个地方,实在是太……!”<br><br>——也许,只有用“奇幻”才能勉强形容眼前的这个世界。<br><br>张大了嘴,却完全发不出任何惊呼声——而她那正环视着一切的双眼则是熠熠生辉。<br>头顶上分的各个屋顶上挂满了彩纸与彩带,乍一眼看,却像被细心装点过的电缆。<br>唯独的区别在于花花绿绿的彩带装饰可以带来节日庆典的欢喜气氛。<br>毫无疑问,冷冰冰的电缆当然做不到这一点。<br>石板铺成的街道路面、红砖瓦搭建的独栋房屋、房顶炊烟袅袅的烟囱……<br>一切迹象都在告诉她,自己正位于一座旧时代的小镇(对于居住于此的居民而言,或许算是座城市)。<br><br>散布于街道两旁,形形色色的摊位上有的陈列着雕刻成圆圈或太阳形状的奇特项链,有的整齐地摆放着护身符、<br>魔法戒指一类的商品,甚至有些小商贩正在售卖她曾于各种回忆之中所见的不明生物雕塑。<br>虽然是初印象,但她总认为此处城镇居民的衣着打扮与她略有相像:就像是要参加庆典游行,却并不花俏浮夸。<br>这是个五彩缤纷的世界,暖色调完美地渲染了城镇的外貌,再配上蓝天的点缀,绚丽风光使人目不暇接。<br>漫步于城镇之时,女孩更是碰巧遇上了许多场演出。<br>吟游诗人周游于此,讲授着知识,传达着警醒,更是使每一个听众都感到乐此不疲。 | |||

This world—<br><br>"Just look at it...!"<br><br>—it's some sort of fantasy.<br><br>Mouth agape, eyes glittering, she looks absolutely everywhere. Overhead, colored paper and fabric ties rooftop<br>to rooftop, evoking the image of frilled power lines. But they give the impression of a festival, as power lines<br>they are most definitely not. The flagstone streets, red-stone houses, and chimneys spouting black smoke tell <br>her this is an old-day town, or perhaps city, she stands in now.<br><br>Stalls offering curious circle- and sun-shaped necklaces, talismans, and rings of charms dot the walkway, <br>beside other stalls selling figures of creatures she's seen before in libraries of other memories. The townsfolk<br>dress, she thinks, a bit similar to her: as if a parade is on, but not one too bombastic. It's a colorful world,<br>favoring the warmer colors of the spectrum, though splashes of azure decoration arrest the eye here and there.<br>As the girl starts to wander, she finds performances too, and troubadours teaching, warning, and entertaining<br>whomever might listen. | |||

She spends some time during her wandering on samples of confections. More than some time, in fact:<br>as much time as she can without drawing suspicion. And as she wanders and samples, one brilliant red morsel<br>strikes her eye, and her heart, very much in particular. A strawberry tart, it's called.<br><br>She gets her hands on it with the apprentice's coin, takes a bite through its glaze, and with that she is certain of<br>this shining truth: this place is very lovely. It's incredibly nice! A fantastical world, and one with a notable<br>appreciation for the more sugary delights of life.<br><br>She finds herself particularly happy about this world of memory. Feeling zealous, she quickens the pace of<br>her steps, leaping forward, gasping, and spinning on her toes or heel as she turns each and every corner. | |||

千万不能忘乎所以地四处乱跑——她不断提醒着自己。<br>倒不是害怕什么,她只是想要仔细地观察这座小镇的每一个细节。<br>广场楼房的侧墙上贴满了各种告示;她认真阅读着上面的文字,这才发觉此处原来是一片信仰之地。<br>这座小镇的人相信着圣灵与精灵,信奉着上帝……同时,也深信着恶魔与妖怪的存在。<br>她眼前的表演者们,演绎的尽是展现出“幻想”、“怪奇”与“超常”色彩的事物。<br>事实上,他们之中的每一个人都清楚自己正在表演的正是所谓的魔法:<br>点燃活力四射的火药粉末,制造火焰与烟雾以“吟唱魔咒”;<br>向着平静的水面说话,解析相随的波纹以“占卜命运”;<br>在她的面前以乍一看根本不知原理的方式玩弄着光线,被华丽地称作“与其他灵魂进行心灵交流”。<br><br>不容置疑,这个世界洋溢着完整浓厚的信仰氛围:一切都像是一场奇妙,纯粹而完美的戏剧。<br><br>正漫步于古色古香的大道之际,回忆本身开始慢慢地提醒她,<br>于此处发生的一切都是人为计划的演戏——一场弥天大谎。<br>这里的传统文化虽然深邃可贵,却终究不是真实存在的事物。 | |||
---- | |||
然而,就在她抵达城镇的边缘后(实际上,由于自己无法再往外踏出哪怕一步,<br>她才意识到这里也是整个回忆世界的边缘)——当她自那低矮且简陋的木栅栏后朝远处郁郁葱葱的山丘眺望之时,<br>映入眼帘的是高耸的老橡树林,以及遥远的湖泊那片波光粼粼的水面……<br>不知何故,她逐渐开始理解为何有些人分明知晓一系列确凿的反证,却仍会对某些事情深信不疑。<br>她自己便来自于那飞舞着玻璃碎片的古怪世界;<br>既然如此,她又怎能一口咬定这世界中并不存在神秘的精灵——又怎能否认超越自然与逻辑定理的想法?<br><br>这段回忆属于某位工匠的助手,而那位工匠便是名货真价实的巫师,没日没夜地研究着超幻想概念的存在性。<br>作为助手的她,其实早已能够借助自己的认知判断出他的一切研究都终会遇到死胡同。<br>她揣摩着,也许研究这一切的目的根本不是为了证明任何事情——<br>研究这些概念,仅仅是为了巩固且加深这些神秘的信仰,别无他意。 | |||
---- | |||
此刻,少女忍不住憋笑出声——还算是个有点意思的猜想。<br>微风轻轻拂过她的长发,柔和地衬托着她那抹若有所思的微笑;<br>她将手搭在一根柱子上,静静地远望着西方那显然是原始森林的地带。<br>完成工匠拜托的差事,而不是无端地离开镇子……这段回忆似乎只允许这篇故事以固有的流程进行下去。<br><br>但是她确信自己会从别的回忆之中再次到达此处。<br>她认定这片遍布技艺、魔法与街头表演的世界与自己的内心不谋而合。<br>她感到于Arcaea世界的一切碎片之中,只有在穹顶与她相遇的那些玻璃碎片映照着这世界更美妙的一面。<br>她抓紧了自己的裙摆,一时兴奋得头晕目眩。<br><br>这一切都太不可思议了——!她上扬的嘴角迫切地颤抖着。至今为止,她从未如此般欣喜若狂。 | |||

She must be careful not to run. She thinks, she really must observe every little part of this town closely.<br>Reading signs posted outside of square buildings, she learns that this is a spiritual place. It's a land that believes<br>in fairies and spirits; in gods, daemons, and youkai. The performers she sees are performing the "fantastic",<br>the "strange", the "impossible". Indeed, every one of them is absolutely certain that what they are performing<br>is magic: "casting spells" by igniting vibrant powders in their hands to flame, smoke, and clouds; "divining fates"<br>by speaking toward still pools of water and interpreting the ripples within; "communing with other beings",<br>they say, by manipulating lights before her eyes in a way she can't actually determine the mechanics of<br>in a glance.<br><br>This world is rich and full of belief: it is marvelous, wondrous, and all an unmistakable act.<br><br>While strolling down the quaint avenues, the memory itself slowly informs her that every part of this place is <br>truly performance, artificial, untruth. Deeply valued tradition, but absolutely not truth. | |||
---- | |||
Yet when she reaches the city's outer limits (and the memory's, with any attempts to cross a small barrier<br>met with resistant reality)—when she gazes out to the verdant hills beyond the low and easy wood fence that<br>has stopped her; to the few but imposing old oak trees, and the clear sparkle of some distant lake... she<br>understands, somehow, why one might believe in something even with sound evidence to the contrary.<br>She herself comes from a strange world of flying glass; why deny the belief that a world like this could be<br>inhabited by trickster fairies? Why reject the idea of things surpassing nature and logic?<br><br>This is the memory of an artisan's helper, and the artisan is a so-called sorcerer who researches the existence of<br>fantastical things. As the help, the girl she is living through has long known that all his research leads to dead<br>ends. The purpose, she speculates, is not to really prove anything. It is to embolden one's beliefs and be better<br>for it. | |||
---- | |||
Now the girl in red puffs a joking breath and smiles wistfully. That's a funny idea. With her hand on a post and<br>wind flowing through her hair, she spots what she knows to be an ancient forest west from here. This is the<br>memory of completing a simple errand, and perhaps that's why she is unable to travel too far.<br><br>But she's sure she will be back in another memory. She thinks this land of artifice, magic, and show very much<br>suits her, and that crowd of glass she'd come across at the top of the world of Arcaea reflected more facets of<br>the world than this within its other fragments. With a giddy feeling, she grips at the front of her dress.<br><br>It's truly incredible. The smile on her face starts to wriggle anxiously. Somehow, she has never felt exhilaration<br>quite like this before. | |||

这种类型的故事总是能使她开心,特别是当她于脑中想象前一代人类因精灵而困扰的场景。<br>在昨天,身为故事叙述者的她有幸向他人讲述一段由叙述者的祖先代代相传下来的轶事。<br>曾经,一代家父在某片遥远的海岸上寻获了大量的宝藏。<br>但在扬帆返航之际,一只空之精灵毫无预兆地出现于湖面之上,轻而易举便掀翻了他的小船,<br>而恰好路过的水中精灵则用浪花顺走了家父的所有战利品。<br>之后,那两只精灵平分了本该归他所有的财富。<br>虽然不知是不是在胡编乱造,但对于如此愚蠢的意外而言,这倒算作合情合理的借口。<br><br>但就算如此,她清楚这也证明了周遭这些生物皆存在善良于邪恶的两面。<br>档案研究完毕后,她回到了Arcaea的世界,仰卧于自己临时修建的平台上休憩。<br>与此同时,她拜访了一位学校指导老师的回忆——<br>她教授的课程是关于小孩子与成年人如何在这种充满混沌与飞来横祸,<br>且粗心之人满地跑的世界中保重自身的安全。<br><br>穿插于课程内容中的魔法相关话题,简直让正在讲授课程的她倍感心花怒放。<br>这里真的纯粹是个充满了幸福与迷人事物的世界,早已使她感到难舍难分。<br>此处居民的面庞,逐渐在每一片Arcaea的映像中变得愈发亲切;<br>这里早已不仅是属于这些居民的记忆,更是塑造她自我的深刻回忆。<br>每一道声响、每一幕画面,所有的一切—— | |||

Twenty times? More? She's stopped keeping count.<br><br>"Al...right..."<br><br>With that whisper under her breath, she crouches in front on a chest made of unfinished wood, swiping her palm<br>across the top. A wave of dust rises off of it and falls to the floor. She unclasps the front and opens it up.<br><br>Today she is an archivist, exploring one of the old castles in the North, where they had lost land to flooding.<br>Thankfully, the papers inside this chest were spared from moisture by the chest itself. Hearing the creak of<br>ancient hinges, her partner calls from another room inquiring about her discovery. "Scrolls from the fourth<br>era," she answers over her shoulder.

Stories like these amuse her, especially as she tries to guess at what the previous generations might have<br>confused for fairies and the like in the past. Yesterday, while working as a storyteller, she had the pleasure of<br>recounting an old passed-down yarn of the teller's ancestors. Some forefather had once gathered a vast<br>treasure on a faraway shore. On the return across the lake a sylph rocked his boat with wind, and a passing<br>naiad capsized it with waves. Afterward, the two shared his fallen wealth. It was quite an excuse for a bout of<br>clumsiness.<br><br>But still, she knows it proves nice to think these creatures are around, malevolent and benevolent both.<br>When her day as an archivist is done and she's returned to the world of Arcaea to rest on the platform which is<br>now her temporary base camp, she visits the memory of a school instructor and teaches lessons and rules that<br>would keep any child or adult safe in a world replete with chaotic nature, sudden perils, and careless people.<br><br>The context of magic makes these lessons very interesting to impart and to hear. It really is just a joyous and<br>fascinating place, and she cannot stop visiting. Its people, whose faces become increasingly familiar between<br>each shard of Arcaea; its places which become engraved in her own memory throughout others; the sounds<br>and the sights, everything— | |||
---- | |||
It's marvelous, and nostalgic.<br><br>When she's been to every other memory she could find in Heaven, when she's explored (as far as she knows)<br>every part of the land, she at last comes to a bustling, rambunctious festival day—or rather, a night celebration.<br>It is to give thanks to the gods of birth and harvest, and to dissuade darker spirits.<br><br>She spots the townsfolk named Lancaster and Shia, two gentlemen architects, and they've gotten on in years<br>from the last memory she met them. But they greet her with vigor and treat her to a candied apple, which<br>makes her happier than anything else. They point to the sky.
