Translated 2/2001 by Ian Finnesey andy_christ@yahoo.com see volume 1 for translation notes BLAME vol 5 P 7 Log.25 Hacking P 10 - From here the angle of gravity changes back. - It's dangerous, so use the sides of the tunnel. P 11 - Killy, it's too narrow! I can't open my wings in here! P 12 - Aaaah!! P 13 - Cibo…what is this? How did we get here? - Thank goodness…you're back to normal. P 14 - We went all the way to Cave 9. - No, we're back in Cave 8. - We're going to meet Mensab. - We left Cave 8? - We could have died! - It's alright now. We're back under Mensab's management. - Just look at yourselves if you don't believe me. - Cibo - Something's here. - Cyborg. P 18 - It's alright. Its body is totally paralyzed. - I'll try to invade its brain. - I want to see what it knows. - It's a different type, though, so I'm not sure if its command format is compatible. - P 19 - What's this? - The command format is like the Safeguard. - What the hell… - There's a secondary brain of some kind. - This brain is almost human. P 20 - I've found the consciousness. - I'd like to connect to you, too, Killy. Lend me your terminal. - I'll begin the quesioning. - What are you people? - Why have you come to Toha Heavy Industries? P 21 - Bu….bu… - We…are…Silicon Life. - A continuation of an ancient…power beyond….the net. - We've come…to destroy… - The…Net Terminal…Gene. - What? - Why would you? P 22 - To stop the…recovery…of the Net Sphere. - By a human…possessing…the Net Terminal…Gene. - This…is the purpose…of the entire… - Cyborg race. - Why do you pursue this goal? - The race…continue… - Excuse me…f…forgive me. - Continue…net…the Net… - A state of chaos…is. Be…essential. - Then…the Net…the City, it was you that started this conflict? - No. - This…chaos…was not…started by us. P 23 - Was there a human with the Net Terminal Gene in Toha Heavy Industries? - Before…we started dealing…bu….bu…with the humans… - We…didn't…check. - There were still humans living here, when you Cyborgs arrived. - Where? - We…Number 8 Cave…Mensab… - Searching…for the…remaining…hidden…humans. P 24 - Only…now our…comrades… - Are…pursuing…Mensab. - We should…soon…know…where they are hidden. - Mensab!? - Where is she? P 27 - Miss Mensab!! - If you don't break their barrier!!! P 31 - Miss Mensab, teleport!! P 33 - Killy, run! You'll be caught in her teleportation! - Cibo! P 37 Log.26 Scattered Space - (killy's display) "Inoperative" P 49 - Great to be able to meet a living human. - Can you speak? - Yeah. P 50 - I detected a strong magnetic disturbance, so I came to have a look. - That Cyborg just now was doing the same. - Nice to meet you, I'm Cibo. - And your name is? P 51 - …Killy. - It's him. P 52 - The latest model Cyborg… - My equipment can't do anything. - I'm running away, Killy! - Follow me. P 53 - I have a feeling…It's somewhere else. P 54 - This seems good. P 55 - How many people named Cibo were there at the Cyber-life Society? - Huh? - No, just me. You know the Society? - Yeah. I met Cibo there, and we came here together. - What are you talking about?! - Where is this person now? - I don't know. Until right before I got sent here, she was nearby. P 56 - Really… - I've come all the way here alone. - This should be the first time we've met. - It hasn't been all that long since I came to this place. - All measurements are meaningless here. - Space and time change like the weather. - Maybe we've slipped out of the world? P 57 - So you say you came from the Society? - How did you get through the megastructure? - I made a hole with this. - That's a Graviton Radiation Projector!?! - Yes, but I can't use it now. P 58 - Matter is beginning to distort. - Lets go somewhere safe P 60 - A residential area. - We might find something. Care to go? P 61 - Number 4 cave. We're still inside Toha Heavy Industries, after all. - Something is handwritten here. P 62 - Killy…I. - No good. It's too old, I can't read it. - You said your name was Killy? - What? P 64 - Words? - Killy…long…I - Power…gravity…furnace…trouble… P 65 - Wait, who are you!? - Vanished. - The last ones were coordinates. P 66 - Hold this for now. - I have to concentrate on flying. P 67 - I can set my navigation system to the present coordinates… - But if we don't hurry, the geography will change, and it will be lost forever. P 69 - I can see the place up ahead. - New model! P 78 - I've come to rescue you, Killy. - Cibo. P 80 - Who is this? P 81 - Killy, draw your gun! - I still can't use it! P 82 - I'll fix that! - But keep the power low! - One more… P 86 - You're late, Killy. - I've been waiting over 10 years. P 87 Log.27 Gravity Furnace P 88 - No good…it isn't completely destroyed. P 92 - The magnetic shield! P 94 - It's going to take time to repair itself. - You… - Hello, I'm Cibo. P 95 - This space is mysterious, is it not? - It will get stranger if the gravity furnace isn't stopped. - Gravity furnace? - The source of Toha Heavy Industries' gravity. - And the cause of the abnormalities in it's space. - If the furnace continues operating as it is, this space will collapse. - If that happens, we'll be trapped inside this space forever. P 96 - You and I look the same, I think. - Looks that way. - Since I've been here, I've wanted to return to the way I was, but I've been missing some materials. P 97 - It's in that cloud. P 100 - That's the main body of the Gravity Furnace. An impeller formed with gravitons - Solid objects cannot interfere with it. - Nothing except a Graviton Radiation Projector. - If a hole is opened in the impeller, the furnace will stop for a moment. - The hole will close after a moment or two, but before it does, space will return to it's original state. - It will then be possible to go to and from the other caves. - That's right. - Anywhere will do. Open a hole in the impeller. P 106 - It stopped. - Look behind us! - A wall!! There wasn't one before! - It's because space is changing back to it's original state. - Any space next to it will appear next. P 107 - The hole is already closing - We should hurry - Get down! P 112 - The hole's closed! Hurry! P 113 - The furnace has restarted! - Space is closing! P117 Log.28 Version P 118 - You've killed them for us, huh? - Just now? That wasn't me. P 119 - Mensab, how about you just give it up. - Hand over the colonists. - Seu, remove the invaders. P 122 - A magnetic restraint line! Damn! P 133 - Bastard!! P 134 - Seu, stand down. - But Miss Mensab, I haven't… P 139 - She's teleported us back. - We've returned to that time. P 141 - What the hell is that!? Where did you get such a… P 143 - That's the second time we've saved you. - Seu. - She's teleporting… - Wait!! P 146 - I know where she's gone. - Lets follow her. P 147 Log.29 Cave 13 P 148 - You want Seu repaired? - He'll be out in a moment. P 150 - Light. P 151 - This is a hand. It moves. - I see. - You're Mensab. - Who am I? P 152 - Oh, no…he's worse than before. - Seu…he becomes dumber every time. - That machine heals only his wounds. - I know I am missing something. - Frightened…sad… - Your name is Seu. - I am Seu. P 155 - Mensab, listen to us. - We are not messengers from the Net Sphere. - We've come to Toha Heavy Industries looking for the Net Terminal Gene. - That's why the Cyborgs are our enemy. - Who are they? P 156 - Where are the people of Cave number 8? - I teleported them to Cave number 13. - Right now there are no humans in this cave besides Seu. - Your teleportation must have been incomplete. - It was to protect them from the contagion the cyborgs brought. P 157 - What's happened in the other caves? - The cyborgs attacked all the caves simultaneously. - Only the residents of this cave successfully escaped. - There was no one residing in Cave 13, so it was uncontaminated. - There should have been some people who entered this cave shortly before us. - I know. - Central refused to naturalize them, but I sent them to cave 13 anyway. P 158 - Central…is that an AI, too? P 159 - It's alright, Seu. Let's go. - It's the cyborg's poison that's done this to you. - I won't forgive Central for interfering with your restoration. P 160 - I will protect the colonists. P 161 - Hey, you guys. - Tell us how to get to cave 13. P 166 - Thank you. We'll go alone from here. - I wish we didn't have to stay. - If we leave cave 8, we'll die. - I know. - Thanks for everything. P 167 - Will they be alright? - But how did she know about that? - We'd never met before. P 174 - How'd it go? P 175 - Simply put, we don't know. - It looks like a completely different place from where we came in. - Really… - We really have all been sent someplace else. - More importantly, there are enemies here. - We killed something resembling the Safeguard. P 176 - Those are the bolts the Fishermen use. - The ones who returned from outside. - Let's kill them! P 177 Log.30 Cease Fire P 182 - What are you doing here, Mensab? This is not your management sphere. - I want to restore Seu's personality. - I should be able to do that with the equipment here. P 183 - Impossible. - You've been expelled from the Ship Collective AI. - Why? - Because only I succeeded at evacuating my residents! - We have protected the residents you sent from cave number 8. - Since they've arrived safely in a new land, perhaps they will awaken? - What are you talking about? P 184 - Toha Heavy Industries will depart again. - The normalization of the Gravity Furnace is complete. - You have two choices. - You can leave things as they are and return quietly to cave 8, or you can be erased. - I have no choice. Seu, you may begin. P 185 - I still remember how. P 186 - Are Zuru and the others really in cave 13? - If they're still okay, we'd better find them in a hurry. P 188 - Controller! - What are you doing here? - I thought you couldn't enter Toha Heavy Industries! - Only now we have unilaterally cancelled the agreement. - The Central AI has ignored all our warnings and has begun moving Toha Heavy Industries from its present location. - An attempt at this low level will have many hidden possibilities for error. P 186 - What are you saying? - There is no time. The Safeguard has already begun invading Toha Heavy Industries - They intend to stop the Central AI. - The Safeguard!! - If you don't connect to the Central AI before the Safeguard does… - You'll never be able to confirm whether the Net Terminal Gene exists. P 190 - I am the agent which limits them. - This communication is over. - It's alright. During my 10 years in cave 4, I opened up the deep parts of Sanakan's consciousness. - Since my consciousness became clear, Sanakan has never reappeared. P 191 - Anyhow, we have to go to the Central AI. - At the base of that axis. P 192 - The Safeguard's invasion has begun. - Central's broken the agreement. P 194 - That way! - No good, Zuru! They're there, too! P 195 - If we don't persuade the Central AI to restore the treaty… - The Safeguard invaders will find Zuru and the others. P 198 - Killy…the Central AI… P 200 - I can't…control… P 201 - Aaaaa…. - Sanakan is… P 202 - Is it loading me? - She's dead. - It's…it's over. P 207 - Cibo… P 214 - That? - We found it fused into a wall in an equipment area of cave 13. - It seems to be Silicon Life, like us, but we really don't know yet. P 215 - What the hell is going on here? - It was dying when we found it, but it was transmuting elements from its surroundings and gradually restoring itself. - That's a capability we don't have. - Can it be grafted? - I want it. - It's brain structure and signals are the same, but… - Do it. P 218 - Gaaaaaaaah…..
