1 tq002006_msg0001 _c1 0x8121 0x30004081 0x430 126 Geum's OK! He's still alive!
Thank the flames...
2 tq002006_msg0002 L 0x8120 0x4081 0x430 126 I'm so glad we made it in time...
I'm so glad...
3 tq002006_msg0003 L 0x8120 0x4081 0x430 126 Again, accept my thanks. We couldn't
have done this without you.
4 tq002006_msg0004 1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Don't worry about it.
5 tq002006_msg0005 L 0x8160 0x10004081 0x430 126 ...
6 tq002006_msg0006 L 0x8160 0x4081 0x430 126 I suppose it's strange of me to talk
about the laws of nature when I fear
losing my friends.
7 tq002006_msg0007 1 0x8120 0x4081 0x430 126 Not at all. Honestly, that seems like
the most natural thing of all.
8 tq002006_msg0008 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 When you told me that you would
release us from the Flame Clock...
9 tq002006_msg0009 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 I thought that if you really were telling
the truth, it would make life easier.
10 tq002006_msg0010 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 But...at the same time, I began to hate
the fact that I was looking for a way out.
11 tq002006_msg0011 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 Looking up at our Clock, seeing the
life ebbing away... I'd already accepted
my fate.
12 tq002006_msg0012 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 And letting go of that status quo, wretched
though it was... After so long, I was scared
of what might happen if we did.
13 tq002006_msg0013 _c1 0x8128 0x20004081 0x430 126 Juniper...
14 tq002006_msg0014 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 Noah, your words at the time
seemed so appealing to me.
15 tq002006_msg0015 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 I could not destroy the collective efforts
that became the colony, and everything it
represents, with my own two hands.
16 tq002006_msg0016 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 But then you said you would destroy
it for us. We'd be guilt-free.
17 tq002006_msg0017 L 0x8158 0x4081 0x430 126 If that isn't appealing...then what is?
18 tq002006_msg0018 1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 You must've been aware of how tragic
it is to simply await death.
19 tq002006_msg0019 1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 That's why you invited us, isn't it?
20 tq002006_msg0020 L 0x8120 0x4081 0x430 126 Even now, I'm not afraid of dying.
21 tq002006_msg0021 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 But I hated the idea of losing
those I hold dear...
22 tq002006_msg0022 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 When I saw my friend lying there...
23 tq002006_msg0023 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 I remembered what you told me, and,
for a brief moment, felt the grip of fear.
24 tq002006_msg0024 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 I felt so weak and helpless...yet at the
same time, I didn't want to let go of my
dear friend.
25 tq002006_msg0025 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 So I must have closed myself off.
I stopped thinking. Closed my eyes
and covered my ears...
26 tq002006_msg0026 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 Perhaps I was simply...waiting for
the inevitable release.
27 tq002006_msg0027 1 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 Even so, we have to keep thinking.
28 tq002006_msg0028 2 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 That's right - even if there are things we'd
rather not see, we still need to look.
29 tq002006_msg0029 1 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 And breaking out of your shell, scrambling
in desperation for a way to escape
despair? That's not what I call being weak.
30 tq002006_msg0030 1 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 You've defended this place for so long.
Why? Because you're strong.
31 tq002006_msg0031 1 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 And once you're no longer shackled
by the rules of the Flame Clock, you
can accept a different reality...
32 tq002006_msg0032 1 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 You can become stronger still.
I know it.
33 tq002006_msg0033 L 0x8148 0x4081 0x430 126 We can?
34 tq002006_msg0034 1 0x8128 0x30004081 0x430 126 You can.
35 tq002006_msg0035 2 0x8120 0x4081 0x430 126 It won't be easy - far from it.
But we'll help you.
36 tq002006_msg0036 _c1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Juniper... It's your call.
37 tq002006_msg0037 Wd1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 We've made it this far thanks to you.
38 tq002006_msg0038 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 Yes... I suppose so...
39 tq002006_msg0039 L 0x8128 0x4081 0x430 126 If...there is a possibility that you can
release us from the Clock, then...please.
40 tq002006_msg0040 _c1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 And if not, it's not like anything's changed.
41 tq002006_msg0041 L 0x8180 0x4081 0x430 126 Haha! Very true. If you can't
break it, I can live with that too.
42 tq002006_msg0042 L 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Nothing changes without a reason,
without a cause.
43 tq002006_msg0043 L 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Perhaps this event will teach me
to see things in a new light...
