Sweepers — Episode 1 (Stage: 40004)Location: A Den of SweepersAnton(Sweeper)578…2179…8213….Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Anton1"Valerie(Sweeper)12915762348Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie1"Lyla(Sweeper)5832091953Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla1"Valerie(Sweeper)683024193Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie2"Anton(Sweeper)05043…Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Anton2"Location: Inside the LibraryRoland(Servant)…I knew it. It’s pretty much impossible to understand the language of Sweepers without an interpreter to translate ‘em for you.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Roland1"Angela(Library Director)Wait. I can promptly translate their speech as long as it has the form of a language.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Angela1"Roland(Servant)Wha, seriously? You can make sense out of those few sentences AND decode a whole language from them?Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Roland2"Angela(Library Director)I’m that capable.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Angela2"Location: A Den of SweepersLyla(Sweeper)It is becoming clear that the night is no longer ours alone.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla2"Valerie(Sweeper)I know. I know that we have fewer and fewer places to properly dine at with our families.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie3"Lyla(Sweeper)I hear that the families who dine at the Nest of L Corp. are recently having a hard time seeing what is in front of them because of the mist covering the area.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla3"Lyla(Sweeper)I hear that some families even get lost in the fog and fail to leave.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla4"Anton(Sweeper)Why… are we not… letting Mother know…Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Anton3"Valerie(Sweeper)If Mother knows, she will wage an all-out war against the Index. We are not certain enough to risk losing our families to battle.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie4"Lyla(Sweeper)If it is true that the Index truly has betrayed us, and if Mother is too late to realize their treachery… Many of our families will starve. They will slowly die out.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla5"Anton(Sweeper)Less food… means Mother… will have… difficulty… fostering… new family members…Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Anton4"Valerie(Sweeper)We all have our own homes, our own families, and our own children.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie5"Valerie(Sweeper)I am not advocating neglect. I am simply saying that we need to practice caution.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie6"Lyla(Sweeper)You know that it has only been a week since those despicable filth known as the Carnival raided the dens of our brothers and ate our families.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla6"Lyla(Sweeper)Five days ago, L’heure du Loup invaded my younger sibling’s den and brutally killed two families.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla7"Lyla(Sweeper)Three days ago, a Proxy of the Index laid waste on our neighbors.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla8"Lyla(Sweeper)Two days ago, Puppeteer took my children. And yest—Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla9"Valerie(Sweeper)I know! I know that those incidents all happened at night!Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie7"Valerie(Sweeper)I know that our presence is not as powerful as before! I know that we have lost our dominance over the nighttime of this Nest.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie8"Valerie(Sweeper)Mother should be aware as well. We know that we need more space to use as our den.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie9"Anton(Sweeper)Then… why…Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Anton5"Valerie(Sweeper)We will only lose more of our dens if we get involved in bigger conflicts. If we were to engage in a full-fledged battle against the Index, we will have even less time in our hands. We must make it through, on our own.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie10"Lyla(Sweeper)What will we possibly do.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla10"Valerie(Sweeper)It is the Library. We must go to the Library.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie11"Valerie(Sweeper)I know that the Library has the books of those who worked for the Thumb and the Index.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie12"Lyla(Sweeper)Have you received its invitation?Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla11"Valerie(Sweeper)I have. With this, we can confirm if the Index truly has turned its back on Mother and our families.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie13"Valerie(Sweeper)Moreover, this will help us relieve the hardships of our families dining at Nest L.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie14"Anton(Sweeper)If we… are not… too late… by then… that is…Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Anton6"Lyla(Sweeper)I understand what you mean, uncle.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla12"Valerie(Sweeper)Let us call our neighbors. Let us head to the Library together.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie15"Valerie(Sweeper)Let us tell our children to lock the doors and not let strangers in before we leave.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie16"Valerie(Sweeper)Let us as parents protect our Mother, our neighbors, our family, and our children with our own hands.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie17"Location: Inside the LibraryRoland(Servant)Whoa… Are we really getting Sweepers as guests here?Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Roland3"Roland(Servant)They have the capacity to collectively go somewhere with a clear purpose at a time that isn’t night? And talk so fluently?Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Roland4"Angela(Library Director)That’s funny. I expected them to be a little coarser.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Angela3"Roland(Servant)I once got an interpreter to try to talk to ‘em before. I thought they could only speak in jumbled words back then.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Roland5"Roland(Servant)But boy oh boy, look at them using complete sentences. And they’re so talkative with each other, too…Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Roland6"Roland(Servant)That means the interpreter I paid an arm and a leg for was a total scam and a rip-off.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Roland7"Angela(Library Director)Are the Sweepers all composed of family members?Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Angela4"Roland(Servant)It’s probably just a symbolic term they chose to forge bonds between each other. I doubt they’re actually families by blood. It’s metaphorical like the titles most other Syndicates use.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Roland8"Angela(Library Director)I heard they kidnap children from the Outskirts and the Backstreets.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Angela5"Roland(Servant)I don’t really suggest looking too deep into Sweepers. They’re all over the Backstreets and the Outskirts. And I don’t think they have much to do with the freedom you’re looking for, anyway.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Roland9"Location: Inside the LibraryValerie(Sweeper)Dear neighbors, this is the Library.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie18"Valerie(Sweeper)This is the place the scum of the Backstreets have been rattling on about.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie19"Anton(Sweeper)We… did not… expect… to come… to the Library ourselves…Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Anton7"Angela(Library Director)Greetings, dear guests.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Angela6"Valerie(Sweeper)Greetings. …Are you our family?Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie20"Angela(Library Director)There’s no way I am, now is there?Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Angela7"Anton(Sweeper)However… you speak… in the language… of our family…Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Anton8"Lyla(Sweeper)We can speak with other members of our family.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla13"Angela(Library Director)I try to talk to the guests on their level these days, as you can see.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Angela8"Lyla(Sweeper)I am impressed. This is surprising. Behold, neighbors. The Library is not like any other place.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla14"Valerie(Sweeper)I know. This is the first time we are having a real conversation with someone who is not our family.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie21"Angela(Library Director)Family, family, family, family… Could you stop with that horrid rubbish?Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Angela9"Anton(Sweeper)Family… is important… It is not… horrid…Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Anton9"Lyla(Sweeper)We apologize. We are simply here to take the books we desire.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla15"Lyla(Sweeper)And in regards to the mist covering this Nest… Do you know anything about it?Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Lyla16"Angela(Library Director)You’ll find out when you read the books, no?Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Angela10"Valerie(Sweeper)That is true. All we want is to acquire the books we want to find. We will be satisfied.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Valerie22"Angela(Library Director)Fine. May you find your book in this place.Audio: "ch5_Sweepers_ep1_Angela11"
