Zeroth Directive

Appointed as AssistantYou work so hard, Doctor.
Appointed as AssistantDoctor, what's wrong? Oh, I'm fine, just a little tired. Please check these two files in a moment. A lot of new Operators have joined Rhodes Island, and we can't disappoint them.
Appointed as AssistantDoctor, are you busy? Oh, it's fine if you don't have time to chat. I need to get some work done too, how about we eat together after we're done?
Talk 1Dr. Kal'tsit told me you have to be 100% focused on your work to maximize efficiency. So... yes, that's what I'm gonna do!
Talk 1Rhodes Island and this land at large have already lost so much. We will put a stop to it... Rage may destroy us, but when confronting malice, ever more people have no other choice. Until the land finds peace, no one will be able to extinguish this fury.
Talk 1Doctor...? All is well. I'm just reading this book. I suddenly realized that Theresa once read it to me, though even now I don't know how it ends. Tears...? Maybe it's because... it's such a heartwarming story.
Talk 2Rhodes Island has achieved cruising speed, Doctor. Would you mind sorting out the navigation log for me?
Talk 2My rings look different? I couldn't hide it from you, Doctor... You're right, one of them broke. But it's okay, Dr. Kal'tsit helped me switch it for a new one. Did... that have something to do with when I blacked out, you ask? Doctor...
Talk 2Yes, another ring of mine broke. Dr. Kal'tsit says no material could stand against such intense emotion. But even though this ring is broken, I still want to keep wearing it. It's both a restraint and a blessing. I'll make good use of it.
Talk 3I still have a lot to learn as leader of Rhodes Island. I hope you'll be there to guide me on our path to the future.
Talk 3In this whole operation, we gained no commercial profit at all, and we gave so much... But there are many things you can't weigh in terms of business value. Rhodes Island was never a company born exclusively for profit, and this land needs more than just physical medications.
Talk 3Doctor, Blaze invited me to an event she's organizing. It's to celebrate our return to the landship, and a lot of elite operators will be there. Will I be joining them for drinks? No, of course I... Doctor, you and Dr. Kal'tsit are always looking after me, so you should know I've grown up a bit, but not that much.
Talk after Promotion 1Maybe it's just wishful thinking, but I hope Rhodes Island can be like a second home to everyone.
Talk after Promotion 1Chernobog's Reunion... it's over, and is there any more point to denouncing what they've done? Think of the people who trampled them, abused them, massacred them... hatred breeds hatred. That was something that should've never happened in the first place.
Talk after Promotion 1I've come to understand more and more how difficult it was for Theresa. What should I do? I think... I'll go and see Kazdel, as it is today. W will stand with me. And... there'll be more, others, in the future… Yes, I'm feeling more confident now.
Talk after Promotion 2Making it this far has cost us so much. Sometimes, I can't help but ask myself... is it really worth it?
Talk after Promotion 2Once, there was a Sarkaz betrayed, who walked this land bent on vengeance, only to cast his own life into the cycle of revenge. What I can't understand is, he'd already settled on his own end before he drew his sword. In his rage… he settled on death, with a clear mind.
Talk after Promotion 2I touched and felt Theresa's every emotion. She was full of love and hope... for this great land, the Sarkaz, the people by her side, and herself. But all of it came to a sudden end, along with her life. She was holding onto so much sorrow... and so am I.
Talk after Trust Increase 1Sometimes I remember where I came from... It was cold, and the air smelled of rusted copper. Rhodes Island is a cozy place in comparison. I'll do everything I can to protect our home.
Talk after Trust Increase 1Death should be carved into our memories, never to be forgotten, no matter who brought that death about, nor who was brought to. Our mistakes will never be right... those scars should always remind us, warn us how frail we are.
Talk after Trust Increase 1Dr. Kal'tsit has seen so much death. She was forced to watch many of her loved ones go, one by one. It's just... too painful. I've grown up now, so I can shoulder more responsibility for her. She doesn't have to walk alone anymore. Doctor, I want her to know that we're here for her.
Talk after Trust Increase 2Hehe… Doctor, let me tell you something: I picked up the violin again.
Talk after Trust Increase 2Even now, they still sometimes come to mind. Misha's gaze, FrostNova's roars, Patriot's cries... Ace, Scout, and so many operators sacrificed their lives for a single belief. But the Infected all across Terra—what is it that they've died for?
Talk after Trust Increase 2I expected as much... Thank you. Oh, Doctor? Do you want to talk with 'Civilight Eterna' too? Alright, come over here, don't be nervous... Just like this, feel the flowing energy. Feels like she's holding your hands, right? You'll get along well, I'm certain of it, and I always have been.
Talk after Trust Increase 3We've still got a long, long way to go, Doctor. This might be a journey without an end, but as long as you're with me, we'll be okay.
Talk after Trust Increase 3Doctor... recently... have I been a little less like myself? The nameless anger that rises up, time and again... is that mine? If so... no, even if so, I won't give up. I will protect you, Doctor, by this sword.
Talk after Trust Increase 3Doctor, I can feel your guilt, confusion... and sorrow. But you shouldn't be trapped by your past. This is what Theresa and I both wish for you. We still have lots of work to do. The one who ignited the flame of hope may no longer be with us, but the fire still burns. Babel never truly fell.
IdleThere's still lots of work that needs to be done, Doctor. We can't afford to have you resting.
IdleDoctor, are you okay? Do you need to rest a little? I'll help carry you. Don't worry, I'm doing fine. So long as you're rested.
IdleDoctor, are you well-rested? If you're still feeling tired, you don't have to force yourself to work. I'm here, after all.
OnboardI'm so glad you're back, Doctor. Now we can walk this path together, me with you, and you with me.
OnboardDoctor, it's so good to see you. My appearance? Um, please don't be afraid... I can explain this. But don't worry, Doctor. Whatever happens, I won't ever let you come to harm. I swear it.
OnboardDon't worry, Doctor, this is another one of my powers. I still can't heal every injury I see.... but I'll keep you safe. I'll protect the ones I love.
Watching Battle RecordI see... thank you, Doctor! I've learned so much from you.
Watching Battle Record'If the fight is unavoidable...' This is what the person I most trusted once taught me.
Watching Battle RecordCould I use all my different powers in the same fight? Oh, Doctor. I was just talking to myself.
Promotion 1I'm so excited to fight by your side again, Doctor!
Promotion 2What I saw that day... the despair stuck in my throat, hopelessly trying to scream... I want to bury it all deep inside my mind and never let it out…

New Year's blessingHappy New Year, Doctor! Please make sure you get lots of rest today... Y-You've already worked for the better part of the day? Did I get here too late? Sorry...Blaze just asked me to get my height measured... Oh, you're just joking? Thank goodness.
New Year's blessingFor a brief moment, I could hear a voice growling deep within my heart: The suffering on these lands is eternal, and nothing can be turned around in such a short span of time... No, I refuse to accept that, Doctor. I trust that our journey and our fight are meaningful.
New Year's blessingWhere's that form...? Hmm... I'm looking for a financial statement from Closure. Where did I put it...? Right here! Oh, it's a summary report from HR... Which reminds me, I haven't checked the new purchase order yet either... Doctor, I won't make it to the party. So I'll wish you a happy new year right here. Ahem-hem: happy new year! Oh? You want to stay with me?
GreetingWelcome home, Doctor!

GreetingWelcome home, Doctor.
BirthdayDoctor, if you can remember even some of your past... That would make me really happy. Right, I'm still not very good at the violin, but... since you're the only one here to listen, there's a song I'd like to practice. A sort of nostalgic song.
BirthdayDoes it feel strange at all to celebrate a birthday that you don't remember? Does it... feel like... that's not you? It doesn't? Thank goodness. Doctor, I'd like to take out my violin and give it another try. Perhaps this time I won't break any strings.
BirthdayHappy birthday, Doctor. Do you want me to... play the violin like before? I didn't get to sneak in much practice... Oh, the time we have to ourselves just gets shorter and shorter these days... But luckily, I know your favorite tune by heart, and I'll never forget it.
Anniversary CelebrationI remember the names of those who've left us, and I can still feel the lingering fear, rage, and pain of battle. But if I'm to give a speech in front of everyone, I want to tell a story of hope instead. Doctor, I'm a little nervous... Could you hold my hand, please?
Anniversary CelebrationThere is no avoiding pain if we are to end the vicious cycle that is hatred. Nevertheless, I believe there will come a day when I can set down this blade. Doctor, until that day comes, I'll protect you at all costs. I only hope that... it won't be you who gets hurt.
Anniversary CelebrationAnother year has passed, and Rhodes Island is still sailing onwards. Doctor, tonight was just so wonderful I wish I could hide it away, deep in my mind. Thank you for staying by my side. We'll spend this very same day next year, together.

According to the records, the saber wielded by the Sarkaz Lord Qui'lon was between 0.9 and 1.2 meters long, about 5 centimeters thick, made of an unknown material, black in color, and bore a traditional Sarkaz inscription, which read 'here the fighting stops.' After succeeding to the throne, Qui'lon reorganized Kazdel and felt that time in the west had been unkind to the people, so he led some Sarkaz tribes to the east, at which point he vanished from history. According to legend, Qui'lon had the power to rout his enemies without fighting. Some accounts say that Qui'lon's enemies suffered a weight several times that of their normal weapons when facing him in battle, finding themselves physically and mentally defeated. If they were lucky enough to survive, they were often maimed. But some referred to Qui'lon as an enlightened despot, saying that cuts from his blade drew no blood, and anyone wise enough to retreat would survive. However, some ancient texts claim that Qui'lon's saber was destroyed in battle before he even succeeded to the throne, and that the weapon he later wielded was a fragile illusion born of his Arts. Such claims are inconsistent with Qui'lon's subsequent performance in Sarkaz conflicts, and few can explain why Qui'lon would not recast his favorite sword under those circumstances. I speculate that Qui'lon did have the power to shape weapons with Arts, and this theory is centered on the throne. But that Qui'lon rarely used his Arts in that way, having once been an adventurer. Of course, it is written that after Qui'lon's ascension, his saber gave off a greenish light, like a breath of flame. Qui'lon's famous ferocity led to the blade being dubbed 'Wrathful Cerulean Flame.' Most of the Sarkaz legends have been lost in the ongoing ruination of Kazdel, which has tremendously impeded historical research. There have been recent calls from Sarkaz scholars to restore their history, but their own research has been poisoned by propagandistic efforts to paint a noble picture of the Sarkaz race. --Logos

About Her Highness? You sure I'm the best person to answer that, Doctor? I'm just a simple boiler worker. What could I possibly know that the Doctor of Rhodes Island wouldn't? Oh, you wanna hear what an average Rhodes Island Sarkaz thinks of the former King? We're standing pretty close to the boiler here, so you'd better sit by the fan while I have a think. Before Her Highness's reign, the King who ruled over Kazdel was named Yliš. He wasn't a brutal tyrant or nothing, but he didn't do anything impressive either. None of the Royal Court were loyal to him, but nobody rose up against him. And later, as we all know, there were a pair of mixed-blood twins in his court: one an armed bodyguard for the King, and the other a royal tailor. That's right, the General and Her Highness, exactly as you knew them. After Yliš's death in battle, they rose to the occasion and led the remaining Sarkaz in a counterattack. I still remember how the textbooks would describe it: 'Her Highness, not yet coronated, never laid down her needle and thread, weaving tactics and strategy with the other heroes. As the rapacious enemy surged into the Sarkaz capital, they fell into a deadly trap.' It wasn't easy, living through such a bloody battle. There was this one Goliath warrior who found himself trapped under a pile of enemy corpses as he was dying. At least until Her Highness came to him. He saw her holding a faint ray of light, and she spun it on a colorless spindle to form a barely-visible staff in her hand. His wounds mended, and his shattered limbs returned to their original positions. He'd never seen Arts like that. Like a tailor darning life itself. When Her Highness was formally coronated, many cheered with joy, but others weren't too happy about it. The General chopped off the latter's heads. And for the next two centuries or so, Her Highness tried to heal Kazdel. Now, this is just a cliché, but the soil of Kazdel is always being watered by the blood of the Sarkaz. Her Highness wanted to change that. As the King, she could do a lot of things, but there were always more that required her attention. Damn near never-ending. With Dame Kal'tsit's at her side, she was able to personally save many lives. But Her Highness knew that in the time it took to save ten lives, a hundred would be lost. If she could save a hundred, there'd be a thousand more she couldn't. And even the King was helpless in the face of Oripathy. For the first few years of the civil war, more than a few people mocked her for leaving Kazdel. I've heard it plenty myself, but was never sure what to say. Their mothers safely gave birth to them in hospitals built almost a hundred years ago, and they were taught in travelling schools established about fifty years back. That's the only reason they even know fancy phrases like 'blind charity,' 'lacking foresight' or 'falling to foreign influences'... Ah, sorry Doctor, caught me ranting a bit there. I don't dare guess what Her Highness was thinking back then. And I believe you, Amiya, and Dame Kal'tsit will steer this ship towards a brighter future. But sometimes I wonder if this ship can really achieve Her Highness's dream one day.
