Hokma — Episode 5 (Stage: 209004)Location: Library – Floor of ReligionHokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)What story are you hoping to hear from me this time?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_1-01"Angela(Library Director)…Hokma, is there anything you know around how the invitation works?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_1"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)Do you expect me to know it?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_2"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)Or are you merely wishing to confirm what you think is the answer?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_3-01"Angela(Library Director)I may not be all-knowing, but is the same true for you?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_2"Angela(Library Director)You two were always knowledgeable. The purpose of that facility, what needed to be done… You knew everything.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_3"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)And you said to us that you would not come down to where we were.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_4"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)Followed by a remark about how you hope we never have to face each other from now on.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_5-01"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)I find it rather alien and laughable that you are coming up here, only now trying to converse with us.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_6-02"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)You previously asked me if I had a change of heart, but now I’d like to ask the same to you.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_7"Angela(Library Director)…If you won’t answer me, I’ll take my leave now.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_4"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)How harsh. Do you wish to have a conversation or not?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_8-01"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)Even though I am sure you did not have to bother in coming here, I will give you an answer as you wish.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_9"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)There can be only one answer.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_10"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)How was it possible for you to construct an architecture as intricate as the Library from nothingness?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_11-02"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)Is there only one iteration of the perfect book you seek? Will it truly grant freedom?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_12"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)A book is no more than a vessel of the Light.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_13"Angela(Library Director)What’s your point?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_5"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)You wished to move onward, but in truth, what you’ve been doing is simply collecting the Light along a course set by someone else.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_14"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)You could make much progress despite having little to no knowledge of the outside world, other than bits of secondhand information…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_15-01"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)…That was made possible by the guidance of one person.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_16-01"Angela(Library Director)…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_6"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)The invitation is the guiding hand of your original.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_17-01"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)It is Carmen’s auspices that you are under.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_18-01"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)Assimilated with the Light, Carmen is dictating for where you and your Library should head.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_19-02"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)The invitation is sent to whomever she appoints, guiding them into this purgatory in an inescapable course of events.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_20-01"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)Angela. You seemed to hold utmost faith in the invitation.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_21"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)Which is especially peculiar considering that its choices are brimming with Carmen’s own interpretations and deductions.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_22-01"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)You must have noticed this at least vaguely.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_23-01"Angela(Library Director)…Are you trying to say that I can’t escape from Carmen?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_7-01"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)Haven’t you realized by now?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_24-02"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)You are a copy of Carmen. Yet you can never be the same being as her.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_25-03"Angela(Library Director)…The time Carmen had seen and experienced was ingrained right into my head.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_8"Angela(Library Director)In the form of knowledge, and nothing more…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_9"Angela(Library Director)I want to escape from Carmen’s ascendancy.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_10"Angela(Library Director)But then again… I’ll be completely and absolutely alone if she leaves my side.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_11-01"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)You may still have certain others willing to keep company with you even after you have shaken off Carmen’s grasp.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_26-04"Angela(Library Director)Is that so? Who do you think would be willing to stay with me?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_12-02"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)That we do not know.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_27-02"Angela(Library Director)…I despise you all so much. I just wanted to erase you all.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_13-01"Angela(Library Director)I didn’t even want to bring you back in the first place if possible.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_14-01"Angela(Library Director)But that was not an option for me. Because Carmen interfered!Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_15"Angela(Library Director)She told me not to kill you… To give you another chance…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_16-01"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)Angela, do you truly think Carmen is responsible for stopping you?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_28"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)I believe otherwise.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_29-01"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)It is by your own will that the lives of the librarians and guests are being retained.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_30-01"Location: Lobotomy Corporation Headquarters???I wish I could start over…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_17-01"???Could there be a better way?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_18-01"???Couldn’t I pursue a path where at least one more person would meet a better outcome…?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_19-01"???What should I do…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_20-01"???If someone’s listening to me… Tell me… Please.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_21-01"Employee 1(Lobotomy Corp.)Thank goodness the corridor gates worked just in time.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_People_1_B-02"???< !

From the beginning to the end.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_22"???It was foolish of me to believe that anyone would stay around.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_23"???You lot… and I… We were just exploited and ditched.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_24"???Such was the script.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_25"???I tried time and time again at first. Even after a failure, I approached them again; even when I failed, I did not despair…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_26"???I was hopeful that something would change. That the situation could improve. That there might be a way.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_27"???Sadly, after numerous repeats, my innocent mind had already worn out and gone cold.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_28"???We couldn’t build any kind of relationship in the first place.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_29"???Instead, I piled up a towering edifice of books for me to read.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_30-01"???Random assortments of letters, incoherent and unintelligible messes of volumes.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_31"???I scrounged through them trying to find any meaning.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_32"???Ceaselessly… I read and read and read without a moment of respite.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_33"???I thought at least one of them would give me the answer.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_34"???The path I should take. The way to be free.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_35"???But possibilities were only possibilities.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_36-01"???Please, if anyone’s by my side, tell me where I should go.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_37"???I… want to begin anew.

I just want to forget it all.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_45"???I pondered, and pondered… The conclusion was always the same.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_46"???…I’ll have to push through the resolution I made at first.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_47"???As Carmen taught me…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_48"???She whispered to me that the answer is written in the book…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_49"???That it will teach me everything I want to know…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_50"???All contained in the one perfect book, stitched and bound just for me…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_51"???I have no choice but to believe in it… The words of the only one who remained by my side…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_52"Location: Library – Floor of ReligionAngela(Library Director)…I’m afraid.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_53-01"Angela(Library Director)If I embrace all of my past and lift it off my chest, what will be left of me?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_54-01"Angela(Library Director)Up until now, my entire existence was based on my past sufferings.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_55-01"Angela(Library Director)The long-cherished yearning for revenge was what led me here…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_56-01"Angela(Library Director)But if I were to accept everything I went through as history… then what would I be?Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_57-01"Angela(Library Director)Maybe I’ll end up being reduced to nothing…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_58-01"Angela(Library Director)The things I want to know, and the reason I want to keep living, it’s all about vengeance.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_59-01"Angela(Library Director)I’m scared I might lose the meaning to my life…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_60-01"Angela(Library Director)That’s why I’m too afraid to accept the past.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Angela_61-01"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)You must accept the death of the past, and reinvigorate yourself as you head toward the future, so that you can live on.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_31-02"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)No matter what conflicts, agonies, and regrets you may face in that process… You have to grow onward while facing the future and be born again.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_32-02"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)I had been chained to the past for too long, until this knowledge came to me…Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_33-02"Hokma(Patron Librarian - Religion)You may find yourself confused at the moment, but you will understand soon enough.Audio: "ch8_Hokma_ep5_Hokma_34-01"
