BinahEpisode 4 SYSTEM: Play BGM: 'Unfolding' SYSTEM: Set BACKGROUND: 'binahBK', effect: 'none' SYSTEM: SHOW character: Binah (id: 'binah') at 'center' Binah (Id: 'binah') Erstwhile, the world in which you stayed was once luminous. Binah (Id: 'binah') There was the sun and the moon, and also the clouds and winds that floated around them. It was a world of light, so to speak. Binah (Id: 'binah') But you couldn’t stay there. You were robbed of innumerable things. Binah (Id: 'binah') You lived with a broken heart, clinging to the void where pieces of your heart used to be. Binah (Id: 'binah') No one could understand your pain, nor embrace you. Binah (Id: 'binah') Eternal loss dominated you. Binah (Id: 'binah') I was one of the thieves who robbed you of countless things. Binah (Id: 'binah') While I was at the top of the world, I watched you and looked down on your struggle. Binah (Id: 'binah') Not just you. Binah (Id: 'binah') I have seen many others that struggled. Binah (Id: 'binah') Those attempts were no less futile than an insect writhing. All I had to do was simply stomp on them a couple times. Binah (Id: 'binah') But, among them, there were some who would grit their teeth and climb up, dragging their broken bodies. Binah (Id: 'binah') It seemed that this was going to be another fun little trip, so I would drink a cup of tea before leaving with light steps. Binah (Id: 'binah') But as you can see, an unexpected encounter with the Red Mist got the best of me. Binah (Id: 'binah') Huhu, and then you inflicted as much suffering upon me as I to you, did you not? Binah (Id: 'binah') You were familiar with how to break the mind without utilizing torture or violence. Binah (Id: 'binah') After everything was done, you gathered up every little bit of what was left of my humanity. Binah (Id: 'binah') And you threw them into this pit until even my spirit soured and rotted. Binah (Id: 'binah') Maybe you told yourself that I deserved worse than that. Binah (Id: 'binah') Therefore you’re an upholder of justice who has defeated the evil, no? Binah (Id: 'binah') Then I must ask, why is that grand and righteous upholder standing here making himself out as a prisoner like I? Binah (Id: 'binah') And what happened with that coward? The one who with fear averted his gaze from my dying one. Binah (Id: 'binah') Why is he down here, suffering the same punishment as I? Binah (Id: 'binah') See, there cannot be a sight more satisfying than this for me. Binah (Id: 'binah') Is this all that idealism of hers came to be? Binah (Id: 'binah') You’ve dragged down your heroine with your own hands. Binah (Id: 'binah') Do you truly believe that your duty completes itself just for shedding tears at the funeral of the innocent? Binah (Id: 'binah') While you never even let their bodies rest in peace? Binah (Id: 'binah') Ironically, you found a hope in all this misery. Binah (Id: 'binah') The raw material of the Bucket. Binah (Id: 'binah') And the path to the river of all. Binah (Id: 'binah') Out of her you made the Bucket, and you started to send it down, down into the Wells of the people. Binah (Id: 'binah') The Bucket rises from the Well of a person, filled with the water that can only be drawn by that person. Binah (Id: 'binah') An ancient fount that has been flowing at the bottom, even before the birth of the world. Binah (Id: 'binah') Now it simply is drawn, regardless of the consent of the person. Binah (Id: 'binah') When the Bucket that holds the faded ideal of hers comes in contact with the ego of another person, a certain change occurs. I’ll ask her about the Bucket. I’ll ask her about the Change. Binah (Id: 'binah') Maybe it’s difficult to understand only by listening. SYSTEM: Play BGM: '3- Dark Fantasy Studio- Behind heaven' SYSTEM: Play SOUND: '392898__screamstudio__creepy-transition' SYSTEM: add_filter ( filter: 'matrix' ) Binah (Id: 'binah') How about this? I could show you one of her miracles. Binah (Id: 'binah') It’s taxing, but for you, I’ll gladly do it. Binah (Id: 'binah') The people selected long ago are awaiting their turns. Binah (Id: 'binah') I bring them here according to the register. SYSTEM: remove_filter ( filter: 'matrix' ) Binah (Id: 'binah') Let me introduce one to you. This one is Nameless. Binah (Id: 'binah') He has nothing left, for he has abandoned all that he is a long time ago. Binah (Id: 'binah') For him, things like the remnants of the past or the pain of the present don’t matter. Binah (Id: 'binah') He only stares into the future. Binah (Id: 'binah') Did you dream well? Employee (Id: 'employee') …….............. Binah (Id: 'binah') Yes, you’ll finally dream for as long as you want, one that you will never wake up from. Binah (Id: 'binah') The employees will inject him with Cogito soon. Binah (Id: 'binah') What river flows in you? What world lies in you? Binah (Id: 'binah') There are as many worlds as there are people. Discovering them is rather fun. SYSTEM: Play SOUND: '240837__greenvwbeetle__creepy-sound' Employee (Id: 'employee') ………..………..……….. Employee (Id: 'employee') ……….. Employee (Id: 'employee') ………..Grr….grrrrrrrrrrr…..ggggggggg…… Binah (Id: 'binah') No one must see this… Binah (Id: 'binah') That is why they adjust the level of Cogito according to my orders, keeping their eyes and ears covered. Binah (Id: 'binah') ………………… Binah (Id: 'binah') …………………………….. Binah (Id: 'binah') Nobody should make direct eye contact with the drawn. Binah (Id: 'binah') But I can never dare to look away from him or to close my eyes, no matter how unbearable it may be. Binah (Id: 'binah') In the eyes of the drawn there are the abysses that only I can endure, and there are the things that shouldn’t exist in this world… Binah (Id: 'binah') This is the punishment that you’ve obligated me to endure. Binah (Id: 'binah') A normal person would have gone mad thousands of times over if they had to put up with this. Binah (Id: 'binah') Thanks to you, I cannot even be graced with insanity or lose my mind; all I can do is capture all of it in my eyes. SYSTEM: Play SOUND: '352415__joseph-larralde__mic-scratching' Employee (Id: 'employee') Gggggrrr….. Binah (Id: 'binah') Now, we wait. Binah (Id: 'binah') Will it rise anew, or is it destined to be stuck in this pillar and spend eternity with me down in this place? Binah (Id: 'binah') We just need a little more time to find out. Binah (Id: 'binah') Now, do you finally realize what all these pillars contain? Binah (Id: 'binah') Well, consider yourself lucky today. Binah (Id: 'binah') At times, when the level of Cogito is adjusted inadequately, some things that shouldn’t exist come up as fragments. Binah (Id: 'binah') How funny that I say this, but they’re like an adverse reaction that has its price for doing something unspeakable to a human being. Binah (Id: 'binah') The Bucket can rise with some impurities mixed in with what we usually draw, such as the abyss within humanity, the subconscious and all kinds of possibilities. Binah (Id: 'binah') From the past, from the present, even from the future. All kinds of beings that have existed and will exist in this world. Binah (Id: 'binah') Given that they’re outside our dominion, there’s nothing we could do to govern them. Binah (Id: 'binah') They float around aimlessly, resonating with the Abnormalities and manifesting themselves in front of us when the moment comes. Binah (Id: 'binah') They are what you call the Ordeals. Binah (Id: 'binah') Thankfully, they react to the Qliphoth Deterrence, so we can put them to sleep like the Abnormalities, but that’s all we’re able to do. Binah (Id: 'binah') Yes, as you have learned, extracting Abnormalities is my job. Binah (Id: 'binah') But creating them is Carmen’s, whom you buried a long time ago. Binah (Id: 'binah') She is the mother of all Abnormalities that have existed in this facility and of all that will emerge in the future. Binah (Id: 'binah') Tell me, how do you feel now that you know that those Abnormalities that you’ve faced above were part of these pillars? Binah (Id: 'binah') It’s an agonizing sight to confront, but it doesn’t matter to you, not at all. Or am I wrong? Binah (Id: 'binah') After all, erasing your memories and running away from them as if nothing had happened is your age-old specialty.
