Hana Association — Episode 1 Epilogue (Stage: 60001)Location: Inside the LibraryRoland(Servant)I thought I’d see him in person… But my expectation was off.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_7"Angela(Library Director)Is there someone you know among them?Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Angela_14"Roland(Servant)I was thinking I might have to face an old friend of mine. Good thing I didn’t.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_8"Roland(Servant)By the way, it looks like the situation out there is worse than I imagined. Even the Hana Association is making a big deal.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_9"Angela(Library Director)Could the City be breaking down?Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Angela_15"Roland(Servant)Nah, I don’t think you have to worry about that. The City carries on somehow.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_10"Roland(Servant)As long as the Head stands, the City’s nature won’t change.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_11"Angela(Library Director)What does the Head do, exactly?Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Angela_16"Roland(Servant)It’s shrouded in layers of secrecy, so no one knows in detail.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_12"Roland(Servant)A Corp—the Wing directly run by the Head—does stuff like managing patents, minting, and authorizing Wings on the surface.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_13"Roland(Servant)It’s in control of all the important factors that make the City breathe, basically.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_14"Roland(Servant)And they seek out anyone plotting to overthrow the City and uproot them.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_15"Angela(Library Director)That makes the Head one of the Wings, at least ostensibly.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Angela_17"Roland(Servant)The Head, the Eye, and the Claw directly manage and run A Corp, B Corp, and C Corp respectively.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_16"Angela(Library Director)Through Arbiters and Claws?Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Angela_18"Roland(Servant)Huh, how’d you know about that?Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_17"Angela(Library Director)The research facility the Red Mist used to be part of fell because of the Head.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Angela_19"Angela(Library Director)To protect her colleagues, Kali killed the Arbiter and the Claws before succumbing to injuries herself.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Angela_20"Angela(Library Director)I can only guess that she fought with all her strength to save those behind her to the last breath, and I suppose that is something that could never be replicated.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Angela_21"Roland(Servant)I can kinda picture how that would’ve looked.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_18"Roland(Servant)Well, going back to where I was… When the Head determines something to be an impurity of the City, they’ll send Arbiters, Beholders, and Claws to try and get rid of it.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_19"Angela(Library Director)Was their research an impurity to the City…Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Angela_22"Roland(Servant)Something about that story doesn’t sit well with me, though. I heard it from Hod and asked her the same question…Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_20"Roland(Servant)An Arbiter paid a visit to a small laboratory in the Outskirts, not even inside the City? That’s the part I don’t get.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_21"Angela(Library Director)As the other librarians likely have said to you, she is telling you the truth. Though I don’t know the reason, either…Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Angela_23"Angela(Library Director)Is the Head staying quiet at the moment because they deemed the current state of the City to be acceptable?Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Angela_24"Roland(Servant)I guess? It’s not like we’ve had a visitor from the Head…Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_22"Angela(Library Director)The Head coming to the Library… I’m curious how it will turn out.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Angela_25"Roland(Servant)Sure, you’ll want to draw as much attention as possible if you wanna live long.Audio: "ch7_Hana_ep1_Roland_23"
