Story: Frozen-Heart Adventurer
The man was an adventurer.
Never did he stay in one place for long—not even
the home where his family awaited his return.
The man was a bit awkward.
He loved his family deeply, but he was never able
to find a way to express himself.
The man lost his life on a mountain.
But his regrets bound him to the land... Was he vexed
to have lost to the mountain, or perhaps stopped by
his feelings for his family? Not even he himself knew.
All the same, he was an adventurer.
"All right, then. Where to next?"
Weapon Story: Seasonal Shift
One of my favorite foods is the great big fried eggs my dad
used to make for me. He was always a bit of a clumsy guy,
but I always loved how those eggs tasted,
and I think about them even now.
I'm climbing a raging volcano at this very moment so I might
acquire a nutritious egg from the massive bird that nests here.
According to my dad's journal,
this is where he got the eggs he would fry for me.
My vision warps slightly due to the intense heat.
I bite into some of the rations I brought in an attempt to recover
some of my strength, but I can't manage to swallow any of it.
As my consciousness fades, I hear a beating of wings.
Determined to not let myself go down here,
I focus my energy into my feet.
I will eat that fried egg again—no matter what.
"Just wait a bit longer," I say as I gently rub my own stomach.

Story: Frozen-Heart Inmate
The woman was born to fight the Flowers. No matter how
painful her days, not once did she release her weapon.
Eventually, her base was destroyed, herself and her husband
the only survivors.
Optimistic in spite of the hopeless situation, they stumbled upon
a grave secret.
A truth that subverted the history of the war and its prisoners.
But in the darkness of their despair, they found a ray of hope.
Hand in hand, they carried out a mission to put an end to it all.
They quietly waited, dreaming of the new world to come.
"Together, you and I—we will be freed from this false world..."
Weapon Story: Hope for the Future
The plan proceeds apace.
If anything, the difficult part was finding a place where
I could have all the time and medicine I needed.
I had to hide everything...
My husband found out about my plan.
He didn't even flinch when I pointed my weapon at him.
Instead, he embraced me.
When his warmth enveloped me, I realized I was crying.
The product is complete.
As I stare at the finished drug, I tremble with fear and excitement.
This drug is named both salvation and destruction...
It will change the world.
I've decided to halt the project.
We love too many things too dearly to use the drug.
I am a coward, and I leave the decision to the future.
Now, let us return to our precious, idle days.

Story: Frozen-Heart Has-Been
A meeting with a compatriot brought destruction to the man.
No matter how hard he fought, no matter how hard he tried to save
them, no matter how he was lauded as a hero, no matter how his
name would live on in history, his sin of sending his companions
to their deaths would forever be a part of him.
A meeting with a compatriot brought salvation to the man.
The only way he could escape this hell was death.
If he closed his eyes to hope, he would find himself in the light.
He bore the same sins, and he taught this to the man.
"I do not want forgiveness. I chose my end."
Weapon Story: Gun of Castigation
'm a war correspondent embedded in a platoon.
The captain is known as a coward, but the vibe isn't bad.
One day, while in the barracks, the captain asked me
a favor in a formal manner. "You're a journalist—I need your help."
He showed me a secret document about the Infant Abduction
Strategy. He wanted me to accuse the country of heinous crimes
under his name. I was shook.
If I did, then he'd... What led him to ask such a thing?
When the captain returned from the internment camp, an uprising
began. The leader: a boy soldier who was once a deserter.
Though wounded, the captain volunteered to lead a snatch
squad that allegedly behaved out of the ordinary.
The next day, after a military ceremony, I publicized the document,
dazzled by how he turned his cowardice into a weapon.
I make accusations in his name, for one day,
he'll be lauded as a hero who exposed this country's injustices.

Story: F-H Swordmaster
One slice. Another. Sundered flesh, splattered blood—her arms
delight as she wields her blade like an extension of her body.
Those radiant days, the moments she spent with the girl—
quashed like a child's toy and shattered before their prime.
A killer protecting the life of another? A foolish notion.
She stares with clouded eyes and bloodied kimono at her cold
body, reminded of the downpour on the night she met the girl.
"How cruel God is, teasing us with a fleeting dream."
Weapon Story: Black Lotus
You taught me to walk the path of carnage. No matter how
I wailed, you stared down at me, expression never changing.
Like the superhuman divine, your spirit was transcendent.
You were everything that caused my heart to stir.
You freed me from a world of captivity. As we lived our
quiet, peaceful lives, I would sometimes see on your face
the shadows of the burden you once bore. Though powerless,
I thought I could chase away your melancholy.
After you betrayed your house, you grew dull, the cold
clarity in your eyes fading away. Yet you cannot hide
it—you dance like a demon among countless blades.
If my blood could sharpen you, I would gladly offer my neck.
You gave me so many joyful days. It is because of your
immense strength that you do not know how to care for
yourself, is it not? Your life is surely beyond my comprehension,
but regardless, you are happiness embodied to me.

Story: Frozen-Heart Convict
The man was born to fight the Flowers. He did not believe his
life had meaning apart from this—until the day he met her.
On that day, thoughts of freedom began rolling about his mind,
even though there should have been no need for such a thing.
So the man chose a new life. He took her hand, and together
they abandoned the old world. What he felt as they ran was not
despair, but hope. Together, they would walk the path of a life
they chose of their own free will.
"Even if all of my feelings prove to be a fabrication,
I still want to live my life with you."

FILE: e696b0e8a68f
Saw signs of problematic behavior, so previous unit was destroyed.
Made a new clone. Implanted memory of a lonely man.
I wonder what'll happen this time.

Growth proceeding. Showing signs of skill. Less obedient than ones
with memories of wife/child (son/daughter doesn't matter),
but still within acceptable levels.
FILE: e795b0e5a489
He shows no sexual interest in female units,
nor emotional response to males.
What is the problem? I don't think I designed him this way.
FILE: e5958fe9a18c
He caused no offense. No skill problems.
His mind is just...elsewhere.
Why? What caused this? What are you looking at?
Who are you looking at?
Story: Reborn Warden
There was once an android girl who sought the truth.
She spent her days carrying out menial tasks with her support
unit, a Pod. One day, she learned that her Pod was betraying her.
But its betrayal was ultimately a misunderstanding born of love.
When they tell each other their true feelings, they decide to
walk hand in hand. A year soon passed since the girl took up
her post. The Pod discovered a red artificial flower at the base.
It was the very same kind of flower children were said to give
to their mothers long, long ago.
Weapon Story: Type-127 Sword IV
Special report to all Pod 006s:
A magnetic storm has occurred on the surface of the moon
near the base.
Please verify the integrity of your saved data.
Report: Integrity of all data within jurisdiction confirmed.
No apparent problems detected.
(Wait a moment—part of the data was inverted by the storm.
I reported no problems, but the other Pods might notice...)
Report: Concluded my personal scans. No anomalies detected.
(For whatever reason, black data has been flipped and is now
white. The primary scan reported no problems, so perhaps the
changes are insignificant.)
Query: Are three checks necessary? Don't we all possess the
same thought processes? (And yet...I've detected an unexpected
payload, though I can't pinpoint where.
Could it be a benevolent force? Or will it become a threat?)

Story: F-H Warlady
The world is gentle moonlight beneath a starry sky. There lies
the end of a long journey—the final stop on a distant road.
She thinks back to how the ground felt beneath her feet.
The scent of the wind that caressed her cheeks.
The sights upon the back of her eyelids.
The girl's final wish has been granted, and as she slips into
eternal sleep with a smile, the same flowers from that day
bloom within the brilliant white crystal.
"Allow me to say this on her behalf: I am home."
Weapon Story: Si'F-06nova
When I was small, I loved the flowers planted beside our
hut. I'd smile at them, and Mom and Dad would be charmed
by how much energy I had despite my frailty.
But then I had to leave home for treatment.
There were no flowers in the research facility, but
Mom wrote letters, and Dad was always by my side.
Eventually Mom stopped writing, and Dad got more
haggard. I lost my life. Became a new "me." Time dragged on.
I lost my memory, my parents, and a normal life. In exchange,
I got the hearty body of a weapon and many younger sisters
who saved me from loneliness.
But the day I got my memory back, it all shattered.
Yet my sisters are why I stand here now. Flowers bloom
wildly around me—the same ones I once saw and heard
of in letters. Whenever I see that hut made of white crystal,
a smile comes to me and I say, "Thank you. I'm home."

Story: Frozen-Heart Truant
There was once a boy who lived for naught but vengeance.
After many long years, he earns victory in battle with his
comrades and achieves his revenge. But his wounds are deep,
and he feels his life slipping away. Having achieved his goal,
the boy should welcome death—yet his outstretched hands
are desperately grasping to life. Only then does he realize
he has come to live for things besides his own satisfaction.
I must survive and carry my comrades' hope into the future.
Summer comes to an end. The boy's dawn fades. Now he lives
for a day when he is glad he chose the path of survival.
Weapon Story: Journey to Dawn
Even were I to achieve vengeance,
I have no home to return to, so I kill and I kill and I kill.
But people will eventually forget me, and I will die in oblivion.
This is an end which suits me.
I took many to my side in search of revenge;
I had no choice but to assume the role of leader.
All I can think of is the fussy captain I once had,
for I now understand the grief we put him through.
Those at my side seek revenge as I do, and we use each
other's skills to achieve that end—or so I thought.
I work best alone, but then why?
Why do I feel this way when one of us dies?
I'm the only one left alive. I'm lost. Lost. Lost.
Why am I always the sole survivor? I've stopped
looking for answers. Instead, I'll take this chance
and keep going, until the day we meet once again.

This is the story of when the loutish man was yet alive and well.
The man acted the part of a terrible father so his family would
not worry after him, for death stalked him around every corner.
But the morning he left on his adventure, his daughter gave him a
gift. After taking it, he turned his back on her and walked away—for
if he were to embrace her, he might never leave on
another adventure.

I shall cause life to grow with strong sun.
The god of spring spoke:
I shall breathe life into the plants and trees.
