Sion was surprised at us turning up. We explained to him what was going on,
and asked him if there was anything in Crystal's Score about the Sephiroth
going out of control.
But Sion said he didn't know about the Closed Score, even though he should
be able to access all the Order's information. Apparently he'd never bothered
to check it. Why not? Even if Lahari had kept him from doing it, isn't that odd?
Putting that aside, Sion said that the fall of Akzeriuth and everything
else that's happened motivated him to return to Daath in order to investigate
the Closed Score. If he'd known it earlier, he probably would have realized
when we met that I would destroy Akzeriuth.
But Sion couldn't recall anything about the Sephiroth going out of control,
even in the Closed Score. In order to confirm what Crystal's Score actually
says, we went to the chapel, where Sion says he can read the Score, including
the Closed Score.
Crystal's Score is extremely long, and would take a great deal of time to
read in its entirety, so Sion only read the parts that dealt with the collapse
of land in recent years--though the Seventh Fonstone is missing, so it's only
up to what the Sixth Fonstone has.
But we didn't learn anything new from the Score Sion read to us. We were
talking about whether the Seventh Fonstone might have any information of use
when Kitten said something strange. She pointed out that Crystal's Score doesn't
say anything about replicas--about me. Does that mean that we've already
diverged from the Score? And if so...is it because I was born?
As we were thinking about that, we were suddenly attacked by Oracle
Knights. If they're coming after us, they must be the Grand Maestro faction!
We can't afford to be captured here--we'd better flee to the Highwind,
outside Daath.
Lahari was a step ahead of us--by the time we got to the edge of Daath, he
had already blocked the exit. Kitten tried to tell him that the Score wasn't
functioning anymore, but he insisted on holding to it, and went on to say
that if I die and the war starts, the world will enter an age of great
prosperity. We tried to escape from him, but Camire had taken Noelle hostage as
well. In the end, he captured us, and seems to intend to use us at Baticul to
restart the war. Isn't there anything we can do?
