Solomon - Prelude[]
[v] Fate/Grand Order - Solomon: The Grand Time Temple - Prelude

[T]

Marisbury:
Wonderfully done, Caster.
We have eliminated all six of the other Masters.

Marisbury:
We have won the Holy Grail War. Once I use my Command Spell to make you kill yourself, the ceremony will be complete.

Marisbury:
The Greater Grail will be filled with the souls of seven Servants, and the Magical Reactor Core used to reach the Root will activate.

Marisbury:
And then, the Third Magic shall finally take form.

Marisbury:
The Third Magic is the materialization of souls.

Marisbury:
Humanity shall escape the shackle of the physical body, be released from all suffering caused by its “limitations,” and advance to a new stage.

Marisbury:
You are a sacrifice for that purpose.
I am sure you understand, Caster.

I nodded in agreement. Humanity's salvation and growth were not the tasks given to me.
If I had no reason to stop them. Just as it was during my life, I simply did what was required of me.
In the Fuyuki Holy Grail War, there would be no Servant survivors.
All Servants were to be eliminated. Even I, the victor, was fated to commit suicide, compelled by my Master's Command Spell.

Marisbury:
...No, that was a joke. I'm kidding, Caster.I'm sorry. I got overexcited.

Marisbury:
I have no intention of offering my meritorious partner to the Greater Grail. I won't use my Command Spells, either. They wouldn't work on you anyway.

Marisbury:
Do you understand? I will not activate the Greater Grail. The Third Magic means nothing to me.

Marisbury:
As the head of the Animusphere family and chairman of the Astromancy division... I must reach the Root in my own unique way.

Marisbury:
It's preposterous to ask me to rely on other mages' theories. The miracle proposed by the Einzbern family...

Marisbury:
...The materialization of souls and the growth of humanity... I have no intention of being part of such fantasies.

That was an unexpected development.
Marisbury didn't realize it, but that was the first and last time he would ever tell a joke.
What surprised me most, though... was how much his thoughts deviated from what I myself had seen.
I asked him: “Then, what do you desire?”

Marisbury:
I'm only after the Grail's ability to grant wishes, and my wish is clear.

Marisbury:
It's the completion of Chaldeas.
Truth is, the one at Chaldea is still just a prototype.

Marisbury:
It was built to satisfy the sponsors. Sure it functions as an Earth model, but it's far from being complete.

Marisbury:
It's just like this Greater Grail, Caster. The theory is complete, but the all-important fuel to power it is lacking.

Marisbury:
The Greater Grail requires the souls of Heroic Spirits, but my Chaldeas needs something more...realistic.

Marisbury:
To power Chaldeas, I would need to take over power plants that could generate enough electricity for an entire country. For no less than six months, even.

Marisbury:
Essentially, I need a budget that could fund an entire nation. But the only assets I have...

Marisbury:
...are my precious Offshore Oil Rig, Seraphix, and a French nuclear reactor I managed to buy the other day.

Marisbury:
That's not nearly enough.
Simply put, I need more funds.

Marisbury:
...That's fine. Laugh at my absurdity and shallowness if you so wish.

Marisbury:
Despite the divine greatness that is the Greater Grail, I seek from it neither eternal life, nor the Root itself.

Marisbury:
What I want is a giant pile of money!

Marisbury told me to laugh, but there was nothing funny about it.
Creating a miracle was his life's work. It wasn't something he could get someone or something else to do for him.
Instead, he asked for the time it would take to complete his task to be shortened. Probably because he didn't have much longer left to live.
He determined that, in the ten years he had left, there was no way for him to complete and activate Chaldeas.
And so, to hasten its activation, he joined the Fuyuki Holy Grail War. The war was, to him, a shortcut.
It would allow him to obtain the necessary resources without becoming indebted to rival families, or having to worry about financing and its inherent complications.
He'd leave no traces. Nobody would be able to see what was coming.

Marisbury:
...Thank you, Caster.
I knew you would understand.

Marisbury:
Your cooperation will allow us to keep this ending our little secret.

Marisbury:
We can let the world think that Saber and their Master won the Fuyuki Holy Grail War.

Marisbury:
...Only a coward would cover this up. But if I don't, the other Lords will be able to get in my way.

Marisbury:
No matter what it costs, I will complete the true Chaldeas and activate it. It will be necessary in order to secure humanity's future.

Marisbury:
By doing so, Professor Lev's Sheba will not only be able to see the future, but the light of the past as well.

Marisbury:
And pseudo-Spiritron projection–the Rayshift theory–will no longer be just a theory.

Marisbury:
Why did the Age of Gods come to an end? Why has the Foundation of Humanity remained unstable since advent of the Anno Domini era?

Marisbury:
Once the Rayshift works, we'll be able to answer those questions.

I knew this man was dangerous in a way unique to mages. Simply put, he lacked the sense of morality.
But, his burning passion and love for humanity were unwavering.
I signaled my consent.
This Greater Grail was not to be used to reach the Root, but to grant one man's wish.

Marisbury:
To grant one's desire...

Marisbury:
Yes, how ironic. The end result is turning out to be just the kind of nonsense the original ritual's creators promised.

I laughed in agreement, but only because I could tell that Marisbury's smile wasn't entirely genuine.

Marisbury:
What about you, Caster?

...?

Marisbury:
Hey, don't tell me you forgot what the Einzberns said!

Marisbury:
The Holy Grail will grant the victor's wish. Both the Master and the Servant have the right to ask for a wish.

Marisbury:
I wish for immense wealth. But what about you?
What will you wish for?

Marisbury:
You can't change the past, but you can change how it is viewed today. Or would you like to be incarnated and live a second life?

I froze. My wish. My wish. My wish...
I'd never. So, I was about to say I didn't have one...

A: ???
But, no... I did.

A: ???
I can really... I can really wish for anything, Marisbury?

Marisbury:
Yes. Anything but the life of Marisbury Animusphere, the man who summoned you.

Marisbury:
Come now, Caster. ...No. Solomon, King of Mages.
My contractor. My one and only friend.

Marisbury:
Knowing you, your wish will be a righteous one.
Say it with pride.

A: ???
...

I remember my lips rose up into a grin.
And then the world went black.

Staff:
Doctor? Are you asleep? Doctor?

Dr. Roman:
Huh...? Whoa, did I fall asleep!?
I'm sorry, guys! I know we're in a critical situation!

Dr. Roman:
Did we find the route to the Singularity where Solomon's lurking!? We barely have a day left!

Staff:
We're making good progress.

Staff:
If our calculations are correct, Chaldea will make contact with the final Singularity in four hours.

Staff:
We'll begin the space-time fusion simultaneously with Master Gudao's Rayshift.

Staff:
As long as it's within 72 hours of the fusion, we can escape the Singularity by purging the eastern research wing,

Staff:
and transfer back to Chaldea Observatory's normal time: December 31, 2018.

Dr. Roman:
I see. Everybody, take one last break then.

Dr. Roman:
You only have four hours, but get some sleep, get some food, enjoy a nice chat, or leave some records behind... anything.

Dr. Roman:
Do something to refresh and relax a little.
I'll keep an eye on things while you do.

Staff:
Understood. If anything happens while we're gone, call us, Doctor.

Dr. Roman:
All right, it's time for the final stage.
It's been ten years since I came to Chaldea.

Dr. Roman:
It seems like a long time, and yet... not.
Honestly, this doesn't feel real to me yet.

Fou:
Fou. Fou, fou.

Dr. Roman:
Oh, there you are, Fou. When I think about it, you're a pretty strange creature, too.

Dr. Roman:
Until Gudao came, you only showed yourself around Mash. What made you change your mind?

Dr. Roman:
I thought you were the kind of creature who feeds on humans, yet has no interest in them. Just like Merlin.

Fou:
Fou. Fou, fou. Fooou!

Dr. Roman:
Hmm... Yeah, I can't really understand what you're saying. I may have been able to understand you back then. Yeah, I probably did.

Dr. Roman:
Well, I have a hunch about what you're saying.
You're saying, “Are you okay with this?”

Dr. Roman:
Magi☆Mari got mad at me over the internet too.
She told me not to keep secrets anymore.

Dr. Roman:
But, well...

Dr. Roman:
To be honest, I don't feel guilty. I can't explain my reasons... Besides, it still hasn't sunk in for me.

Dr. Roman:
Why did I come here to Chaldea?
What was I doing before I did?

Dr. Roman:
It's all stuff I absolutely can't explain. Not even a little.

Dr. Roman:
If I told them I came here to protect humanity just because I felt like it, that would be pretty lame, right?

Fou:
...

Dr. Roman:
Oh! But I CAN explain how I came to run the medical division at such a young age.

Dr. Roman:
It's because I studied like any other person, of course. Competence is what got me this job.

Fou:
...Fou, fou...

Dr. Roman:
Come to think of it, I've spent the last decade doing nothing but studying, researching, and investigating.

Dr. Roman:
One day, I had a feeling that humanity was going to end. It was one of those... bad dreams people get sometimes.

Dr. Roman:
Eventually, I was forced to realize that this feeling of mine was true. I had no way of denying it, yet no strength to make sure either.

Dr. Roman:
The only clue I had was that it would begin at Chaldea. I was filled with a sense of terror, and I was compelled to do something.

Dr. Roman:
So, I've done everything I possibly could over the past decade. Like I was fleeing from this doom. Like I was running away, screaming.

Dr. Roman:
...And I'm about to find out how this will end. scared, but happy at the same time.

Dr. Roman:
Once this battle's over, I won't have to worry anymore. I can finally be free to do what I want with my time.

Fou:
...Fou. Fou, fou.

Dr. Roman:
Hmm? Why are you thwacking on the data on the Demon Gods?

Dr. Roman:
Oh, I see. You're worried about Gudao, huh?

Dr. Roman:
As for who Solomon really is... Well, I suppose I have some idea. Kingu was a good sample case.

Dr. Roman:
I thought the Solomon who appeared in London was a fake, but I didn't have any way to prove it.

Dr. Roman:
Heroic Spirits have many aspects. That's why a single Heroic Spirit can manifest as a Saber or a Lancer, for instance.

Dr. Roman:
So even if the Solomon who incinerated humanity was a variation on the one in the legends...

Dr. Roman:
...he is still Solomon, the father of magecraft. And if he is the real Solomon, Chaldea has no way to beat him.

Dr. Roman:
There were times when pessimism won out, and I thought that this Grand Order would end with humanity's defeat.

Dr. Roman:
But, now... I don't feel that way. If I'm right, that Solomon has one weak point.

Dr. Roman:
...Yes, just one.

Dr. Roman:
If he is the real Solomon, and at the same time, someone who is falsely claiming to be the King of Mages...

Dr. Roman:
There is a void that Solomon can never reach... And it scares me.

Dr. Roman:
What scares me isn't whether I can take advantage of that opportunity.

Dr. Roman:
It's what I'm going to be thinking when I reach that void...

Fou:
...Fou...

Mash:
...I had a dream. A scene of a peaceful town–one I'd seen before.

Unknown Man:
Hey, Mash. Good to see you're doing well again today. I'm sure things will be quiet tomorrow, too.

Unknown Woman:
Hey, Kyrielight, what are you doing with that shield? The city's the same as ever! There's no danger around.

Unknown Man:
That's right. We finally live in a utopia with no war, starvation, prejudice, or discrimination.

Unknown Woman:
There's no need to hate anyone. No need to fear anything! Because we've... we've been released from death.

Unknown Man:
We've been released from the sorrows of life. We're happier now than we ever thought possible.

Unknown Woman:
Life has no end. The world has no end. Tomorrow will never be worse than today. This is the bliss of eternity.

Mash:
...

Mash:
...No. I don't understand the happiness they speak of.

Mash:
Solomon, King of Mages, the image you show me only frightens me.

Solomon:
Why does it frighten you?

Solomon:
These people have been released from finite lives, from the terror of death, from all their worries...

Solomon:
What you see is a realistically blessed world for humans taking form. Why would that frighten you, Mash?

Solomon:
A promised tomorrow. A today that lasts forever. A life you needn't fear ending.

Solomon:
That should be your salvation.

Solomon:
I thought you, of all people, would understand how wonderful it is simply to live.

Mash:
...No. No, I'm sorry.

Mash:
I don't know why you show yourself to me. But I can see that you are concerned about me.

Mash:
Which is why it pains me to deny you. But... I must correct you when you are in the wrong.

Solomon:
...Very well. Then tell me, Mash. I'm interested in the conclusion you've reached.

Mash:
You mourn the end of life, and speak of the beauty of eternity. But, I'm sorry...

Mash:
I don't understand the sorrow. I don't understand what's so great about eternity.

Mash:
Death is the end that comes to all living things. It's a natural part of life.

Mash:
You say there's no sadness because there's no death. But, I don't think eternal life is happiness.

Solomon:
Why? The people of this town are happy. Eternity is the happiness that humanity yearns for.

Mash:
No. That's a lie. Their smiles are wrong.

Solomon:
...Their smiles are wrong? Are you saying that this state of satisfaction, of freedom from all worries, is a lie?

Mash:
Yes. Smiling is what gets you through sadness. Humans continue smiling because they know their time is limited.

Mash:
But the smiles in this world are different. They're just smiling because they're not afraid.

Mash:
Those are not smiles. They're just... muscle memory.

Mash:
The joys of life belong to those who live in the moment.

Mash:
...Solomon, King of Mages... That is my answer to the question you once posed me.

Mash:
I don't think anyone lives because they're scared of dying.

Mash:
We live because we simply want to live. We do our best to get through the day because we can't wait for tomorrow.

Mash:
Our journey is not about trying to avoid the endpoint of our lives we call “death,” but rather to pass through it.

Mash:
So, please... do not take away our desire to live.

Solomon:
...I see. So that was the question the other me asked of you, hm?

Solomon:
“Why do you fight? Why, knowing your life will someday end, knowing it's ended already?”

Solomon:
“Why do you cling to life? Why, when you realize that there's nothing in your future you can save?”

Solomon:
What you've just told me... That is your answer?

Solomon:
...A shame. Truly, a shame. Only those directly involved could be satisfied by such an answer.

Solomon:
The Demon God Flauros spoke of you... Of how a short-lived creature, created by man, lived her life.

Solomon:
I had paid particular attention to you as a sample case. No more. I no longer care.

Solomon:
There is no path to a longer life for you. You have rejected eternity, and so you shall die.

Solomon:
So die like the trash you are, and take all of Chaldea with you.

Solomon:
Die as one who clung to life. As a brave warrior who overcame many trials and perils.

Solomon:
Why? Because that was what everyone was foolish enough to see you as.

Solomon:
...

Solomon:
...It's sad, really. In the end, you are nothing more than another powerless, ordinary human.

1....Okay, it's time.

Da Vinci:
Hey! Good morning, Gudao!

Da Vinci:
It's Da Vinci here with your wake-up call. I figured you'd be getting up from your nap about now!

Da Vinci:
Oh, no need for any formal greetings. This call is basically just me talking to myself.

Da Vinci:
The Command Room is ready. Now, it's up to you and Mash to begin the Last Order.

Da Vinci:
But first, I have a request. No, it's less a request, and more a bit of advice.

Da Vinci:
I reviewed Mash's medical exams during the brief rest. I'll be blunt: her body is at its limit.

Da Vinci:
Both in terms of her life and combat ability.

Da Vinci:
She doesn't have long to live, and can only participate in one more major operation.

Da Vinci:
I figured you needed to know. And... Romani forced me to pass on the bad news.

Da Vinci:
So, anyway...

Da Vinci:
Romani believed that it would be best not to tell her, but I disagree.

Da Vinci:
For one thing—

1.I think Mash knows.

Da Vinci:
...I see. Coming from you, who's been with her the most, I'm not inclined to argue.

Da Vinci:
That's it from me, then. I know this all comes moments before the battle to determine humanity's future, but that's that and this's this.

Da Vinci:
You've only got a brief moment before you head to the Command Room. Spend it in a way you won't regret.

Da Vinci:
See you in the Command Room! Ciao!☆

Mash:
Good morning, Senpai. Did you just wake up, too?

Mash:
I just took a nap and finished a physical checkup.

Mash:
If you're going to the Command Room, let me accompany you.

Mash:
Or would you like to go to the cafeteria and get a sandwich for some quick nourishment? ...Senpai?

1....
2.... (I can't... I can't bring it up.)

Mash:
I think it's natural to feel pressured. I'm feeling overwhelmed. My heart is racing.

Mash:
But, I'm not worried. It's always been this way to me.

Mash:
From Fuyuki to ancient Mesopotamia, I was never confident I would be able to complete the mission.

Mash:
On the other hand, Senpai... Even though you were more baffled than I was, you always managed to lead the way.

Mash:
So, no matter how much pressure I'm under... even if humanity's survival is at stake...

Mash:
...as long as Senpai is my Master, I will never feel worried.

Mash:
Gudao, you are the best Master Chaldea has, and I'm very proud of you.

1.Mash...

Fou:
Fou. Fooou!

Mash:
Good morning, Fou. Have you come to bring us to the Command Room?

Fou:
Fou. Fooou...

1.(Fou is staring right at me...?)

Fou:
...Fou. Fou, fou.

Mash:
...? Fou?

1....(I see...)
2....(I can't bring that up, but...)

1....Mash, you should stay in Chaldea.

Mash:
Thank you. But, that's impossible.

Mash:
Ever since you took my hand as the Command Room was collapsing around us, I have exclusively been your Servant.

Mash:
If you're going to fight, I want to fight too. Even if it shortens the small amount of time I have left.

1.Mash...
2.So, you know...

Fou:
...

Mash:
Yes. And it is no reason for any extra concern.

Mash:
It's true that, unlike others, I was born and raised in a special environment.

Mash:
But, I don't feel sad about my life so far. I know the Doctor was worried about me, but...

Mash:
I don't regret my life. Nothing sad has happened in it.

Mash:
If there's anything to be sad about, it would be that I won't be able to see what comes next.

Mash:
My life has been very happy. Everyone was very good to me.

Mash:
Even if I only have a few more months left to live, I want to be proud of what I do with them.

1....But that's...
2.That's just awful...

Mash:
Not at all. My life has been more than worth it.

Mash:
I mean, I never thought I'd set foot outside Chaldea. That never seemed possible for me.

Mash:
But you saved me. Thanks to you, I was able to see the outside world...to see what color the sky was.

Mash:
My journey this past year has been a treasure to me... One I wouldn't give up for anything.

Mash:
...So...

Mash:
So, I'm going on the final mission.

Mash:
Solomon said that life has no value. Human history is meaningless.

Mash:
But that is wrong, and I will deny it with everything I have. Even if someone's life is going to be lost and forgotten,

Mash:
I've learned on my journey that the lives of every human in history are what built the present we live in now.

Mash:
...It's true that I have no experience with life's sorrows. I don't understand the pain the King of Mages speaks of.

Mash:
But I know the joys of life. Senpai, Dr. Roman, everyone at Chaldea...

Mash:
...and all the worlds we've traveled through have taught me.

Mash:
So, please, let me accompany you until the end, Master.

Mash:
To prevent the Incineration of Humanity, to show the value of human life, and to retake our future.

1....I'm sorry. Let's go, Mash!
2....Thank you. Let's go, Mash!

Mash:
Right! Mash Kyrielight will support you with everything I have!

Fou:
Fou, fooou!

Dr. Roman:
Right on time. Good morning, Gudao, Mash.

Dr. Roman:
Your physical and mental states both appear stable. The two of you are in top condition.

Dr. Roman:
No... Your mental state is a bit elevated compared to usual. Did something good happen, Mash?

Mash:
Y-yes. I was lucky enough to run into Senpai in the hallway again today.

1.It's a good sign.

Dr. Roman:
Ah, like a good luck ritual. It's one of those everyday things you do to help you succeed...

Dr. Roman:
A little magic charm anyone can do. Small happinesses like that are important.

1. Tactless, Doctor, aren't you?

Dr. Roman:
No, not really! I was just taking your vitals. I'm your doctor, after all, and I have to be precise, so—

Dr. Roman:
Wait, what do you mean by “tactless”? Did you literally bump into each other or something? Did sparks fly?

Dr. Roman:
...Oh, right. Here I am, making my usual small talk.

Dr. Roman:
We're at the final stage. We need to stay focused and talk seriously.

Dr. Roman:
Master Gudao, Mash Kyrielight.

Dr. Roman:
We've finally identified the location of the King of Mages' base, which we knew to exist outside the normal temporal axis.

Dr. Roman:
Chaldea will now make contact with this Singularity. The entire facility will enter enemy territory.

Dr. Roman:
We will Rayshift into the enemy Singularity, but we'll also be physically connected to them.

Dr. Roman:
This will be different from our other expeditions. Moving between Chaldea and the Singularity can only be done at the contact points.

Dr. Roman:
In other words...

Da Vinci:
In other words, this is a surprise landing operation! Crazy, like Normandy!

1.Just like always!
2.Da Vinci!

Da Vinci:
Yes! Thanks for that lively response! Military regulations and dignity are no concern of mine!

Dr. Roman:
(Sigh) ...Well, I kind of saw that coming.

Dr. Roman:
Fine. I'm going to give up on being serious. Da Vinci, can you give us the briefing?

Da Vinci:
Sure! Leave it to me!☆

Da Vinci:
Now, just like I said, this is a landing operation. That sets it apart from all the other Orders so far.

Da Vinci:
There's no need to look for a Grail. The mission itself is simple, but you've got three things to do:

Da Vinci:
First, besiege the enemy temple; second, defeat the King of Mages; and third, return from enemy territory alive.

1.Besiege the temple...
2.Defeat the King of Mages...

Mash:
And then return alive?

Da Vinci:
Yes. Thanks to Sheba's analysis, we know the basic layout of the enemy territory.

Da Vinci:
This Singularity is its own little world. It's a conceptual universe.

Da Vinci:
If Chaldeas is a miniature model of Earth, then the enemy territory is a miniature model of the universe.

Da Vinci:
Well, it's a universe with no other celestial bodies. On a human scale, it would be about the size of a single cell.

Da Vinci:
What's interesting is that there's only a single life form in this universe. But, we can ignore that for now.

Da Vinci:
There's an incalculable amount of magical energy swirling around the center of the Singularity. That's definitely the King of Mages' throne.

Da Vinci:
The throne will be your target. But the route connecting to it is currently blocked.

Da Vinci:
That is to say, the temple gate is shut. Well, it's natural to protect one's seat of power.

Da Vinci:
So, first you're going to destroy all the surrounding areas in the enemy's territory.

Da Vinci:
The enemy territory itself is actually a single massive life-form. It's sending energy from the outer edges to the core.

Da Vinci:
So, once the outer edges are destroyed, the gate barring the way to the throne will shatter.

Mash:
Destroy the outer areas to cut off the flow of magical energy... So that's why you talked about besieging the temple...

Da Vinci:
That's right! Our analysis revealed that there are multiple bases inside enemy territory.

Da Vinci:
If you destroy them, or shut them down, the path to the throne should open.

Da Vinci:
Then, you defeat the King of Mages once he's exposed, and finally come back to Chaldea.

Da Vinci:
You'll have to walk back, though.

Da Vinci:
Traveling via Rayshift can only be done along the contact point... the entrance into the enemy territory.

Da Vinci:
That's why it's a landing operation. Ugh, it's going to be such a chore!

Da Vinci:
Once the King of Mages is gone, this Singularity will disappear. In other words—

1.We need to run back as the Singularity collapses?

Mash:
!

Mash:
That's... Yes, that is different than before. We've never had to escape a collapsing battlefield...

Da Vinci:
Yes. Normally, the only time you'd have to worry about that is if you're searching ruins.

Da Vinci:
So, destroying the King of Mages is just the start. What's important is coming back.

Da Vinci:
Both of you need to stay focused until the very end, and make your way back to the entrance.

Da Vinci:
As soon as we've Rayshifted to return you to the Coffins, Chaldea will return to normal space.

Da Vinci:
That's when the battle is truly over. Humanity, and Chaldea, will have won.

Da Vinci:
Right, Romani?

Dr. Roman:
Of course. That's why we've come all this way.

Dr. Roman:
...Enter the enemy Singularity and destroy the seven bases. Reach the throne at the heart, and defeat Solomon.

Dr. Roman:
Afterward, escape the collapsing throne, and return to Chaldea via the contact point.

Dr. Roman:
...That's the mission. Any questions?

1.None.
2.What do you mean the Singularity is a single life-form?

Dr. Roman:
Oh, actually... Hmm. You know, there's probably no reason to go into it, but I'll tell you anyway.

Dr. Roman:
Do you remember Fuyuki's Greater Grail? The Magical Reactor Core that caused the Fuyuki Holy Grail War?

Dr. Roman:
It was originally made from the dissected body of a certain mage.

Dr. Roman:
The greatest of geniuses. The greatest of miracles.

Dr. Roman:
This mage had her Magical Circuits removed and used as the basis for the system.

Dr. Roman:
This was a special case of turning the small system that is a human body into a real universe.

Dr. Roman:
And this Singularity is similar. It's a small universe made from the Magical Circuits of a certain mage.

Dr. Roman:
A Reality Marble that can exist outside of the temporal axis, for as long as it has magical energy...

Dr. Roman:
That is the true nature of Solomon's base. That's why we had to call it this:

Dr. Roman:
The Grand Temple of Time, Reality Marble Solomon.

Dr. Roman:
...

Fou:
...

1.Dr. Roman?

Dr. Roman:
...How pathetic. Looks like I'm the only one who has yet to be mentally prepared.

Dr. Roman:
But, that's coming to an end right now. That look on your face, Gudao, it's cheered me up.

Dr. Roman:
As the acting director of Chaldea, I order you to enter the Coffins.

Dr. Roman:
There's only a little time left. If Chaldea reaches 2019, everything will be over. We won't be able to restore humanity.

Dr. Roman:
This battle began with defeat. Solomon wiped out the entirety of mankind before anyone knew what happened.

Dr. Roman:
This is the greatest murder plot in human history. Solomon has been carefully planning this out since his death in 931 B.C.

Dr. Roman:
Please, put an end to his absurd scheme. Prove that an endeavor as hollow as Solomon's simply needs to go up in flames without anyone ever knowing about it.

1.... (Nod silently)
2.Of course! Leave it to me!

Mash:
Yes. Leave it to us, Dr. Roman.
Senpai and I will return to Chaldea, I promise!

Dr. Roman:
Good. Glad to hear it.

Dr. Roman:
Knowing you two, you won't lose to Solomon.

Dr. Roman:
...Now let's begin the final Order.

Dr. Roman:
Initiating Rayshift program.

Dr. Roman:
The enemy is Solomon, King of Mages. The mission objectives are to destroy him and return alive!

Announcement:
Unsummon Program start.
Spiritron Conversion start.

Announcement:
Rayshift starting in 3, 2, 1...

Announcement:
All procedures cleared.
Final Grand Order commencing operation.!

Illya: Over here, Kuro! That pillar -- it's replicating like crazy! What is that thing, Ruby? It's like super gross!
Ruby: Uh -- something that modern humans would probably have a bit of trouble dealing with? As far as the Spell Format goes ... looks like a mess of Age of Divinities bullshit. I guarantee that if you go at it, you're gonna have a bad time, 'cause it'll keep on resurrecting no matter how many times you take it down. Do you seriously intend to fight it, Illya-san?
Illya: Of course I do! It's only common sense that we'd fight alongside everyone else! I mean, we became friends with Master-san specifically to help her! This is the reason that we joined Chaldea in the first place!
Chloe: That's right. While I'm not exactly happy about pulling an all-nighter, I've made a promise to return the favors that I owe. Normally it'd be Mahou Shoujo-istically NG to go up against a tentacle monster, but -- well, I guess it's worth it for just the opportunity to cut 'em down? Especially since it somehow feels like these guys are lookin' down on the 3rd Magic(family). -- Let's go Illya. Even if it's just an inkling, let's show them the true power of the House Einzbern!

イリヤ: クロ、こっちこっち!どんどん生きてくる、あの柱!ルビー、何なのあれ!?なんか、ものすごく気持ち悪いんですけどー!
ルビー: あー、これはちょっと今の人類の手には負えませんねー。術式が……するとか、神代マジはんぱねぇー。これ、いくら倒しても復活してくる無理ゲーですけど、これでも戦うんですか、イリヤさん?
イリヤ: これはーーーもちろん!わたしたちだって、皆さんと一緒に戦わないと!だって、その為にマスターさんと知り合って、その為に、カルデアにいたんだから!
クロエ: そうね。朝までコースなんて体力的に勘弁してほしいけど、お世話になった借りは返すって言っちゃったし。触手の相手とか魔法少女的にはNGだけど、ま、斬り甲斐だけはありそうだし?それに、コイツらからは何となく第三魔法(うちら)への軽視を感じるわ。ーーー行くわよイリヤ。欠片とはいえ、アインツベルンの系譜の力、見せてやろうじゃない!

[v] Fate/Grand Order - Solomon: The Grand Time Temple - Section 13: Singularity, Collapsed

I was omnipotent.
It was not omnipotence possessed because Solomon created me thus.
We were originally born of Distortions within the activities of the human psyche --
a Collective of Demon Gods (魔神, Majin, lit. "jinn") which had obtained Names and Powers.
I was from the beginning a Transcendent One,
and when We were become, omnipotence and omniscience were had.

私は全能だった。
ソロモンがそう創ったからではない。
我々はもとより人間の精神活動の 歪(ひず)みとして生まれ、
名称と能力を獲得した 魔神(もの)を束ねた 群体(もの)。
私は初めから超越者であり、
我々になった時、全能の力と視点を得た。

[v] Fate/Grand Order - Solomon: The Grand Time Temple - Section 15: Return

Mashu:
――――――。
――――――。

???:
――――――。
――――――。
――――――。
-- a relief. It's good that you haven't yet departed, Mashu.
Your annihilation was absolute.
You'd reached the termination of your life.
Even so, your consciousness yet lingers within this Void (虚無, Kyomu?).
Even so, you have labors yet to complete.
And therefore, I shan't tell you that "you've done a good job, and earned your rest."
The time, however, has come for me to bid you "bye-bye."

Mashu:
――――――。

???:
There isn't time to dally, and so I'll say it bluntly: I intend to bring you back to life.
I am that which presides over the principle of "Comparison" (比較, Hikaku?).
I am the Beast borne of the Distinction (特徴, tokuchou?, lit. "distinct feature") of "advancing beyond one's opponent," which comes unto maturation by the conflict that arises amongst Men, supping upon their Envies (妬み, Netami?) and Regrets (悔しさ, Kuyashisa?).
The Beast of Calamity, Cath Palug (災厄の獣キャスパリーグ, Saiyaku no Juu Kyasu Pari-gu?).
In a different world, I am the one that would be called the Slayer of the Primates(Primate Murder) (霊長の殺人者(プライミッツ・マーダー), Reichou no Satsujinsha(Puraimittsu Ma-da-)?).
Removed of the Civilization of Man, I would be a harmless animal.
And thus, I was once confined to a solitary isle, uninhabited by humans.
However, the Magus charged with the duty of caring for me was a loathsome wretch.
Forcing me from the comfort of the Tower of Imprisonment (幽閉塔, Yuuhei-Tou?), he released me unto the world without.
... but, it was thanks to that that I arrived upon Chaldea.
And there, I discovered you and Gudako.

Mashu:
-- y-you are --

???:
Perhaps you find this troubling?
But, well, the Magus did once claim that goodwill is fundamentally something to be forced upon others.
Let that my actions be an emulation of that.
Expending the stores of Mana (魔力, Maryoku?, lit. "Magical Energy") that I've collected to myself across the centuries, I shall here enact a Miracle (奇蹟, Kiseki?) irreplicable even by way of the True Magics (魔法?).
"The Complete Resurrection of the Dead" (死者の完全な蘇生, Shisha no Kanzen-na Sosei?).
Or rather, any deaths that come to pass within the Temple of Time (時間神殿, Jikan Shinden?) aren't in fact counted as applicable within reality.
I shall now be conducting a transference of my Force of Providence (運命力, Unmei-Ryoku?).
It shall persist to the extent that your remaining lifespan -- less than three days in duration -- will be entirely overwritten.
However, as I am yet to fully mature, I can grant you only a lifespan comparable to that of the Humans (人並, hitonami?).
And by the consummation of this act, I shall be as merely a beast.
Neither Sapience (知性, Chisei?) nor Distinction (特性, Tokusei?) shall remain.
Until now, my responses to you in conversation have indeed held meaning, but henceforth, they may be little more than the cries of an animal.
But this isn't something you should unnecessarily concern yourself with.
From your perspective, after all, nothing will have changed.
But, I suppose I can't help but feel a bit of loneliness in that.
For this reason, I desired that my final act would be to bid you alone a personal farewell.
Goodbye, Mashu Kyrielight.
This journey that I've undertaken at your side was to me a refreshment.
It is owing to that that I was able to retain this form until the end, even as I might have normally degenerated unto unsightliness.

Mashu:
W- wait --
Fou, -san -- Fou-san -- !

???:
... Once, a certain Magus uttered these words on unleashing the Cath Palug upon the world.
"Go forth and seek beauty," he said.
-- Yes.
I have indeed witnessed a beautiful thing.
There exist evils that may be defeated without the crossing of blades, and answers that be reached only absent of the spilling of blood.
I congratulate you, good folk of Chaldea.
By your efforts, the 4th Beast (第四の獣, Dai-Yon no Juu?) is here defeated.

マシュ:
――――――。
――――――。

???:
――――――。
――――――。
――――――。
――――――良かった。まだ残っていたね、マシュ。
君は完全に消滅した。
命の終わりに辿り着いた。
それでも、意思がこの虚無に残っている。
それでも、君が成すべき事がまだ残っている。
だから「お疲れ様」とは言わないよ。
「バイバイ」と、お別れは言うけどね。

マシュ:
――――――。

???:
時間もないし率直に言うと、君を生き返らせようと思う。
ボクは「比較」の理を受け持っていた。
人間同士の競争と成長、妬みや悔しさを糧とし、「相手より強くなる」特徴を持つ獣だ。
災厄の獣キャスパリーグ。
違う世界では霊長の殺人者(プライミッツ・マーダー)、とも呼ばれたね。
ボクは人間社会にいなければ無害な動物だ。
だから人のいない孤島に閉じこもっていた。
けれど、ボクの世話をしていた魔術師は酷いヤツでね。
快適だった幽閉塔からボクを追い出して、外に放ってしまったんだよ。
……でも、そのおかげでボクはカルデアに辿り着いた。
そこで君と、ぐだ子を発見した。

マシュ:
―――あな、たは―――

???:
君は迷惑に思うかな。
でもまあ、善意とは基本、押し売りするものだと魔術師は言っていた。それに[#倣:なら]うとしよう。
数百年溜め込んだ魔力を使って、魔法ですら到達しえない奇蹟をここに起こす。
『死者の完全な蘇生』。
とはいえ、時間神殿での死は現実ではカウントされない。
ボクがこれからする事は運命力の譲渡だ。
君のわずかな、あと三日とない寿命を塗りつぶすほどの。
ただし、ボクはまだ成長していなかったから。
君の寿命を人並(ひとなみ)のものにしかできない。
これによってボクはただの獣になる。
知性も特性もなくなるからね。
今までは君たちの会話に意味のある合いの手をいれていたけど、これから先はただの鳴き声になるだろう。
別に気にした事でもないさ。
君たちにとっては何も変わらないんだから。
でもまあ、寂しい気持ちも本当だ。
だから最後に、君にだけはお別れを言いたかった。
さようなら、マシュ・キリエライト。
君たちとの旅は、ボクにとって清々しいものだった。
たいてい醜悪な姿に変わっていたボクが、最後までずっと、この姿のままでいられた程に。

マシュ:
待っ、て―――
フォウ、さん―――フォウさん―――!

???:
……かつて魔術師はこう言ってキャスパリーグを送り出した。
「美しいものに触れてきなさい」と。
―――そうだ。
私は本当に、美しいものを見た。
刃を交えずとも倒せる悪はあり、血を流さなかったからこそ、辿り着ける答えがあった。
おめでとう、カルデアの善き人々。
第四の獣は、君たちによって倒された。
