Continued violence has made it difficult to expand my observations of the city. I will therefore summarize the information I have successfully gathered and list a few hypotheses.

First, the languages of the departed residents of this place appear, based on street signs and available literature, to be English, Greek and Latin. This reinforces my suspicion that Discedo is an alternate universe; however, there are two moons present, the larger of which shows fewer crater marks than our own and the smaller of which is too far to make out details with the naked eye. How is it that a world physically so different from ours - indicating extremely early divergence - could have developed along such similar lines at a later date? Is it possible that these languages were brought to Discedo by other abductees from alternate worlds more similar to ours?

Alternatively, it is possible that the smaller moon is a human artifact. This still does not explain the different cratering pattern, but does suggest a world with fewer deviances from our timeline.

The scientists' abilities remain unclear; however, I am beginning to suspect that they are more technologically based than equivalent to the abilities of a Composer or an Angel. Apart from unwillingly transporting sentient beings from alternate worlds, they appear to exert no controlling influence; nor have they set any apparent rules. I intend to obtain tools and take a closer look at both the communicator and, if I can obtain one, a removed chip. As examples of the scientists' technology, they should reveal the resources available to those individuals.

Not to distract you guys from everything goin' on, but I hear there's a lab over at the school where a guy might pick up some tools. Anybody know who's runnin' it, and whether they'd mind me stoppin' by to borrow one or two?

If they're not for public use, I'd be just as happy with directions to the industrial district or any hardware shops this place might have.

Not in my experience.

Then there you have it.

Such a shame I missed out on the final performance. I was looking forward to it.

Is Discedo your 'bigger stage,' or are we still talking about your world?

I was unaware Discedo had a working theatre team.

[Why yes he is going to pretend he was not having a double meaning at all]

If you're such a fan, you oughta set one up.

If not for the fact that I have two sisters and a brother to watch after, I would highly consider it.

That many? All I've met is your brother.

Joshua has spoken to one other, I believe.

You know, we might work together but we're not the same person. What're their names?

Euphemia li Britannia and Nunnally vi Britannia.

I'll say hi if I see 'em around.

My only request is that you do not mention chip removal to Euphemia.

She isn't to know too much about it or that mine was removed.

I can do that. Mind if I ask why?

If she knew, then she would want hers removed. However, that would be a problem for any resident that is Japanese.

And that's plenty of us. So, what kind of power's she got?

It is not a power or ability, but a curse.

A curse, huh. I didn't know these chips blocked that kinda thing.

It is a good thing they do then.

Can't argue with that. So what does it do? Other than hit Japanese?

Euphy will not stop until everyone that has Japanese blood has died.

Does she know that?

No. She doesn't remember.

Wouldn't it be easier to tell her why she shouldn't have her chip removed? She's going to hear from someone.

No. She would be horrified. Her heart couldn't handle knowing she is the cause of so much death... Nor could it bear the fact that her brother had to take her life.

Sorry to hear that.

Doesn't change the fact that someone's liable to tell her about the chip eventually, ya know. What are you going to tell her then?
