| 1 | qst650511_msg0001 | 84 | Here we are - this is Masrah Spring! |
| 2 | qst650511_msg0002 | 84 | A mysterious-looking place, isn't it...
It reminds me of Noctilum. |
| 3 | qst650511_msg0003 | 84 | Noctilum, eh?
Is that where you're from, Elma? |
| 4 | qst650511_msg0004 | 84 | No, not remotely.
The place I come from is
very different still. |
| 5 | qst650511_msg0005 | 84 | Noctilum is a region of the planet Mira.
I lived among the humans whose ship,
the White Whale, landed on Mira. |
| 6 | qst650511_msg0006 | 84 | Tora not really understand "planet"...
But "White Whale" is like big-huge
fish-shape Titan ship? |
| 7 | qst650511_msg0007 | 84 | No, it's quite different from a Titan...
The name is a reference to something
in an old human book. |
| 8 | qst650511_msg0008 | 84 | Anyway, Mira isn't my real home... |
| 9 | qst650511_msg0009 | 84 | But me and my comrades are working
hard to make it a fitting second home
for mankind. |
| 10 | qst650511_msg0010 | 84 | Though you speak of another world,
the story is a familiar one. Mankind
finds a way to strive and overcome. |
| 11 | qst650511_msg0011 | 84 | It sure sounds like it.
And Noctilum didn't exactly
welcome us with open arms. |
| 12 | qst650511_msg0012 | 84 | Its enormous trees and indigenous
wildlife push back against us, every
step of the way... |
| 13 | qst650511_msg0013 | 84 | But it's unavoidable, if we're to make
ourselves part of the Miran ecosystem. |
| 14 | qst650511_msg0014 | 84 | Sounds like a right faff if you ask me... |
| 15 | qst650511_msg0015 | 84 | Yeah, but I feel like I get it. |
| 16 | qst650511_msg0016 | 84 | It's not like we haven't had to kill some
living creatures, or run away from some
monsters from time to time. |
| 17 | qst650511_msg0017 | 84 | It's all just part and parcel of living
in a world as rich as Alrest, right? |
| 18 | qst650511_msg0018 | 84 | Exactly. People have to exist inside
the world that surrounds them... |
| 19 | qst650511_msg0019 | 84 | Well, enough talk for now.
Let's do the neighborly thing and
introduce ourselves to this area. |
