People today yet understand why it survives, but could only roughly deduce that, perhaps during the Great Flood, the call for survival of those who could not enter the city made the forest to possess a barrier to help men breathe, and allowed it to be preserved as a whim.

Standing on the olive tree, there are the lucky floating corpses sailed under its feet, then fell into the abyssal under the waterfall, while more souls, before they could swim into the channel of judgment, were turned into light fragments, became a part of world. The ancient hymns echoed, this was a flood that would retreat, human once again lost their homes, like aimless dogs, climb onto the decaying wood, secretly thinking to themselves, this is the ark of salvation. Yet the sea, is waiting for a man. After this catastrophe, it should no longer be called an unconscious sea. The moans, howls, and prayers of the drowned constitute its soul and body. It considers itself to be personified, an individual of humanity. So it waits, for the being who created itself, and destroyed everything. The Endless Sea knows well, that the Creator did not escape from the catastrophe, and that all those who perished, shall appear before its eyes. The gargantuan waves destroyed everything. The olive ran towards its destiny. And the endless sea loses its last foothold. It knows that it won’t be able to wait for it, and the story must come to an end. The next time I see you, it will be at Lotos I think. || == == || '''Date''' ||743/04/04 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Bernice || || '''Category''' ||key || ||<-2>3 Blue like the sea - this is the most beautiful praise for a clear sky in the old world. But in Lavabo at that time, the sky above people's heads was an endless, tranquil, rippling ocean full of whims. In Year 90 of Promissory Period, those who lost their homeland built their new home, a city suspended upside down on the sea, Lotos, in the giant tower water tank "Lavabo" on top of the wasteland. That is also the place where I lived my whole life. My guardian, Chronos, was the chief designer of the Project Lavabo, and as his assistant, I was involved in the construction of Lotos throughout. I must say that it was a genius idea to use rotation to maintain the gravity inside the satellite, and when I saw the draft proposal of using the sea as the sky, I truly thought that they had found the perfect solution to replace the Decaippos system. But the disaster still occurred. He said, that Project Lavabo was doomed to fail from the very beginning. Nothing is eternally unchanging, neither is time. Distortion and chaos are the ultimate destiny of everything. One day, the Endless Sea will flood Lotos, and the Lotus Eaters will awake once again and embark on a journey to find their homeland. I cannot agree with his words, despite that it is now Year 743 of Period Seleneous, after the fall of Lavabo. Today, with his wisdom, I will step into the depths of the Endless Sea, where the pieces of Chronos, have been gathered. I believe in miracles, for he is the miracle. || == == || '''Date''' ||743/04/04 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Bernice || || '''Category''' ||key || ||<-2>4 I have released a monster, a monster named Chronos. || == Box of Delusion == || '''Date''' ||743/02/05 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Ida || || '''Category''' ||bold || || '''Broken Data Research Number''' ||1874-0-001 || ||<-2>On that day, Ida found the Box of Delusion while tidying up her stuff from the previous life. It appears to be just a transparent box, with nothing inside. But if you open it, there is a piece of paper, with a poem: When I am found, I am already lost. When I am sonorous, I am already silenced. The far light beyond the far, has yet taken me far away But I am yet lost, neither mad. You have yet to see, the light beyond the unbounded. That is the light, unstoppable by the sky of the dark night. The giant roc crosses the clear sky, wandering for the morning dew. Only because of you, I leave this light behind. || == Box of Delusion == || '''Date''' ||743/02/07 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Ida || || '''Category''' ||bold || || '''Broken Data Research Number''' ||1874-1-001 || ||<-2>From Limbo Wiki:Category: #Puzzle DepositoryEntry: PKO – 24225 Content: Please find the origin of this poem. -- Provider: Ida Comment: This poem was found among the provider's relics from her previous life. It was contained in a transparent curiosity box, but the contents are not visible. It is a very common act to refer to concepts by instances. Most boxes in history and legends bring disasters, or seemingly rewarding temptations. Boxes are frequently used as a symbol of attracting calamity. Whether it is Pandora's Box, or the Ark of the Covenant that was taken away from Israel, the contents of the boxes are of the utmost concern to man. Reply from Mentus Petman: I know. Please DM for details. || == Box of Delusion == || '''Date''' ||743/04/04 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Ida || || '''Category''' ||bold || || '''Broken Data Research Number''' ||1874-2-001 || ||<-2>After loading the real Pearl of Truth, the Box of Delusion emits a soft blanket of light. The light shield unfolds, penetrating the icy deep sea, and slowly descends, like a meteor burning through the atmosphere. The four people followed Bernice's instructions and tried to keep themselves in the protection of the light shield. The protection was originally designed for three, but the fortunately the three girls all have a small build, and Mentus could barely squeeze in. While descending, Ida, who has excellent hearing, heard the sound of the engine looming overhead. A man who appeared to be Airpark, drove a submersible, and recklessly rushed towards the four, trying to grab the "key" to enter Lotos. It seems that he realised that he was tricked. "Run!" Bernice also noticed the abnormality and was about to speed up, while the water mines from the submersible hit hard on top of the light shield. The shot scattered everyone. They knew the danger of Lotos well, and by instinct, they wanted to get the Box of Delusion. They only saw the blinding glow the Box of Delusion, surrounding everyone into the protective circle. But just as they were about to touch the outer wall of Lotos, Sappho and Mentus were kicked out of the way. || == Ida's Super Vibration Knife == || '''Date''' ||743/02/08 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Ida || || '''Category''' ||bold || || '''Broken Data Research Number''' ||1874-0-002 || ||<-2>Advertisement: The perfect combination of violence and delicacy.

The Animitta Group claims that it holds special abilities against whims and make sales via randomised train ads. Using false advertisement and rebranding, they sold fruit knives carrying a vibrating function at a high price. The original product was the Sharp Series 1000 by PUG Kitchenware, but was later electroplated and sold as a new product. Over 10,000 consumers were scammed. The scam has caused a certain extend of economic loss and even casualties. So far, the suspects have not yet been caught. Any suspects found can be reported to the Ruling Bureau. || == Bernice's Research Notes == || '''Date''' ||743/05/20 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Broken Data Research || || '''Category''' ||bold || ||<-2>-- Ahhhh, why do these people like to use audio paper files so much? -- What did you find again?

In terms of the authenticity, the history known to people now and the fictional story are interestingly equivalent, as both being the ramblings of other people. Even if the narrator recounts the details fully, the reality after mixed with opinions will deform to a certain extend. So how should the real history be discovered and how should it be passed on? Words and records are ultimately pale. Only objects from the past can allow those who come later to peek into the trail left by the truth in time. Can we claim that the past in words has no meaning? No either. By comparing multiple stories and filtering them through each other, we can obtain a purer history. And the conclusion I made with this method is that, Lotos was not destroyed; it still exists, somewhere at the bottom of the Endless Sea. || == Bernice's Research Notes == || '''Date''' ||743/02/03 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Bernice || || '''Category''' ||bold || || '''Broken Data Research Number''' ||1874-1-003 || ||<-2>At that time, Ida walked into my office, filled with the dusty light in front of me. Through files slanted by the window scattered on the floor, I could see the impatience in her eyes. She probably has sensed something. We come from that Itaca family that is obsessed with natural production. Fortunately, Ida is a Limbo and not qualified to contact the core of the family. Ida’s mother left when she was still very young, so it was always me who took care of her. Ida: "You and Airpark are still in touch?" Bernice: "He's been funding my research, and you know how costly it is on data to do research." Ida: "That kind of snakehead ...... whatever, forget it." Bernice: "No resource is noble or humble. " Ida: "Are You going to fool me round with historical allusions again?" Bernice: "We are the creation of God, and everything we accomplish is in praise of God. This is someone who did all the evil, but also funded many artists in the old days." Ida: "It sounds like his praise also included the evil deeds." Bernice: "By the way, if Lotos is found, do you want to come with me?" Ida: "It will be banned. None of it is good." Bernice: "I thought you'd be curious." Ida: "Let history return to history. That's what you said." || == Bernice's Research Notes == || '''Date''' ||743/04/02 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Bernice || || '''Category''' ||bold || || '''Broken Data Research Number''' ||1874-2-003 || ||<-2>Ida: "Are you leaving because of the poem in the box?" Bernice: "Yes, to Port Odysseus. They seem to want to meet at the Endless Sea." Ida: "I should go. After all, I'm the one asking the questions." Bernice: "Changed your mind?" Ida: "Just thinking, about going out for a walk." Ida: "There’s a voice keeps telling me not to go, that Bernice is lying to you, and there is no such thing as Lotos. If Lotos is so illusory, then what is it that you all are seeking. That’s all I want to know." || == Bernice's Magical Satchel == || '''Date''' ||261/04/04 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Bernice || || '''Category''' ||bold || || '''Broken Data Research Number''' ||1874-0-004 || ||<-2>After landing safely in Lotos, Ida was a little overwhelmed to see Sappho and Mentus lost conscious. While Bernice, at the moment she saw Lotos, recalled the sealed memory of what is called "the wisdom of all-knowing", one of the five souls of Chronos. Sure enough. Bernice smiled and reassured to Ida, "It's going to be all right. Their conscious is still in cache. They'll wake up." "Bernice? You … seems to be a little different." "Take them to the Miracle Forest. " "What about you?" "I need to go to the control centre. I have to." == Bernice's Magical Satchel == || '''Date''' ||743/04/04 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Bernice || || '''Category''' ||bold || || '''Broken Data Research Number''' ||1874-1-004 || ||<-2>Moving two bodies was not easy. Ida luckily found a cart that still worked. On her way to the depths, she noticed a fresh trail of footprints, and following it, she found the well without any problems. After putting the body in place, Ida noticed that the trail continued. Could this be, Airpark’s footprint? What was he trying to do? Ida couldn't contain her curiosity and began to follow the tracks. Ida followed the tracks to the control centre. Her mind went blank when she saw Bernice, fallen to the side. Airpark did not notice Ida's intrusion. At this time, he had already used the Box of Delusion and reversed the energy pathway. It would not take long before Lotos to surface and reappear in the world. I did it. Airparker, no, the “desire of reappearing" laughed wildly, with the two souls he already had in his hands, and the "clue of returning" obtained from Mentus, plus the "wisdom of all-knowing ", the core of Lotos, finally opened for him. || == Bernice's Magical Satchel == || '''Date''' ||743/04/04 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Bernice || || '''Category''' ||bold || || '''Broken Data Research Number''' ||1874-2-004 || ||<-2>Bernice's severe injury made Ida lose her mind, and her soul cried out in pain. Ida took out her pocketknife and stabbed towards Airpark recklessly. He reacted in time, dodged sideways and seized the weapon. Airpark was surprised by the appearance of Ida. One without soul should not appear in Lotos. "You shouldn't be here, unless." Airpark had a bold idea, but it was impossible. "It seems you know." Waking up, Bernice pulled her pistol out of her bag, pulled the trigger, and Airpark lost all signs of life. "Body deactivation detected. Body regeneration required." "We will collect only partial death information, then initiate the program for you." "Floating point error. Activation program terminated. Thank you for using PhigrOS. May we meet again in the future. Bernice hugged Ida tightly and softly whispered: "It's over." "Yeah, it's all over. You shouldn't have come back, Bernice." Ida is no longer who she is now, but the past and the future merged into one. The shackles that seal Lotos have been broken. The waves of the Endless Sea will engulf the city. The monsters that once overthrown Lavabo will come for a second time. And within seven days, Atlas will be destroyed again. This time, there is no coming back. "Let's go. When it wakes up, it will be too late." Ida pressed the teleportation button, and Bernice disappeared before she could do anything. Sitting by the piano, Ida held up the keys and played a distant melody, as if the bell of doom rings a deafening shot at the fake calm. Something is about to happen. Fish acted like a tornado of storms, fleeing to leave the area of Lotos for their lives, followed by the protective circle. The pitch-black whims climbed up the outer wall sucking energy, and soon rendering the protective circle useless. The sea gushed into this paradise, and all where it passes were only left with debris. Lotos is collapsing. In a short moment, the control centre will also be gone. "What a nice dream, don't you think, Bernice." Her eyes glowed with sorrow. She would not want to wake up, if she could. || == Sappho's Action Camera == || '''Date''' ||730/09/16 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Sappho || || '''Category''' ||bold || ||<-2>No logo, no gorgeous paint job.

It was a gift that Sappho’s guardian bought from a small workshop for her, out of kindness and knowledge of her when they parted way. But that's not what Sappho liked about this camera. The camera's private album does not show up in the album list like others, but only after taking three consecutive photos at a specific angle, which is extremely secure. The camera's private album holds several photos of Ida, all marked with the location where they were taken. || == Sappho's Action Camera == || '''Date''' ||743/04/03 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Sappho || || '''Category''' ||bold || || '''Broken Data Research Number''' ||1874-0-005 || ||<-2>Ida: Sappho? Sappho: Yo, it's been a long time. Ida: Long time no see. Can't seem to find you lately. Sappho: I was just busy with work. How did you get to the Endless Sea? I thought this is a black dock. Ida: I made an appointment with someone. Initially I was coming with my cousin together, but I don’t know where she went to after receiving a phone call. Sappho: All right. Ida: You want to come with me? It’s always better with one more pair of helping hands. || == Sappho's Action Camera == || '''Date''' ||743/04/03 || || '''Supervisior''' ||Sappho || || '''Category''' ||bold || || '''Broken Data Research Number''' ||1874-1-005 || ||<-2>Sappho: Ever since I was born, I didn't know what I should do, so I just did a lot of things I liked. Always go to the places I like, see the scenery I like, and love the people I like. Ida: That’s nice. Sappho: But is it freedom? Or is it just wandering all the time because you don't know where your roots are. Ida: That's fine for you, Sappho. Why should people avoid what they like. Sappho: So why are you avoiding Lotos? Ida: Bernice talks to you about anything. Well, that place was important to me in my last life, but I can't remember the past. For now, I'm just me.

Even collectors who bought them thought it to be a mock-up by some small workshop, and treat the third generation to be simply never existed.

Mentus was in the room on the topmost floor. The two arrived at the roof. Sappho reached down with the camera she carried to capture the inside of the house. There were no guards, and Mentus was the only one blindfolded and tied to a stool. The two girls entered the room through the open window and untied Mentus. Ida pulled out Pallas' ID, and questioned Mentus. Ida: "Why do you have this?" Mentus: "He's my father." Mentus roughly remembered Ida, who is Limbo, who is not allow to access family secrets. Ida felt Mentus looked familiar, but couldn't quite remember; the Itaca family shouldn't be present in the Pixel Tower, and the near-crazy bloodline worship made her sick. Sappho could see her buddy’s embarrassment, and continued to ask for her. Sappho: "Father? Then how come you're not an Itaca?" Mentus: "Hm, I used the name Itaca before as well, but because I was traced by these people because of Lotos. Therefore I left the harbour, and changed a new name as well." Sappho: "Why did they track you down?" Mentus: "That is, of course, I have something they want." || == Directional Rope == ||
