Lady Shurelia and Jakuri's Technical Service Center

今回のテクニカルサービスセンターは、なぜか私の妄想道場になりかけたから、責任とって私がタイトルコールをすることになったわ。と言っても、大した妄想ではないけど。 もちろん、他の投稿は普通のテクニカルな投稿だから、あまり心配しないで。

This Technical Service Center ended on the brink of becoming my Delusion Dojo for some reason, so that's why I ended up having the duty of doing the title call. Even so, it's not such a large delusion. Of course, all the other submissions are normal technical questions, so don't worry much about it.

姿は変わらなくても寿命はあるレーヴァテイルの皆さんですが自分が死ぬ時の前兆みたいなものはあるのですか？ (KT)

Do all the mortal Reyvateils have some sort of sign that they're going to die, even if they appearance doesn't change in the slightest? (KT)

経験者は語る。ある。 それは唐突にやってきた。 理論上は、レーヴァテイルは自分の寿命を自分で分かるとか、後どれくらいで死ぬかわかるとか言われてるけど、実際はそんな前々からはわからない。 でも、数時間前からは何となくわかるわ。でも最初はその違和感が、死期であるとはわからないの。ただ、何となく「これだけはやっておきたい」って思う気持ちが強くなって、だいたい数時間以内に…っていうのも強く意識する。 で、それが達成されたくらいの頃に、ああ、私死ぬのかー…って。だから、「あと１０日と２２時間３８分の命です」みたいな感じでは分からないわ。さすがに。たまにそう言われる事もあるし、私もそれ、ちょっと期待していたんだけど、そういうデジタルなのじゃなかった。残念。

I can talk about this from experience, so yeah. They do have signs and they come about very abruptly. Theoretically, a Reyvateil is capable of knowing her remaining life span, and while she can say about how much time she has left before she kicks the bucket, she can't actually know about it long before that happens. But when she's just a few hours away from death, she'll somehow know how long she has left. But since it's pretty unpleasant to know that from the outset, she won't know exactly when she'll die. Still, she'll begin strongly feeling things like "There's still so much I want to do", which means that generally that'll happen after some hours... which shows how strongly conscious we are about this. So when the time comes, she'll think "Yeah, I'm gonna die"... So they can't really know their time of death in a way as precise as "I've only got ten days, 22 hours, 38 minutes left", as you'd expect. As I occasionally talk in that way, I expected I'd be able to predict when my time came like that, but we aren't programmed so digitally. Too bad.

初めて送らせていただきます。既出でしたら申し訳ありません。 アルトネリコ3のストーリー中で蒼都が極限病に発症してしましまいましたが、その後体に何か異常が発生したりといったことはないのでしょうか。(一応治療は行われていますが) あと、ストーリー終了後に極限病に発症した人は存在するのか、もし存在するのならその方達へ治療は行われたのでしょうか？ よろしくお願いします。 (アルタ)

This is my first submission. Sorry if this question has been asked before. During Ar tonelico 3's story, Aoto contracted the Border Disease, but didn't he have any other abnormalities after that? (even though they gave him a temporary treatment...) Also, there are still people with the Border Disease after the game's story ended? And if there are, would it be possible to apply to them the same treatment that was given to Aoto? (Arta)

極限病は、精神世界サーバーより外側のアドレスへ、無理矢理レーヴァテイル質を接続して発症させてしまう為に発生する病気です。残念ながら、完全解決には至っていませんが、発症要因である幾つかの要素を取り除くことで、予防する措置はとられています。 最も有効なのは、第三塔圏外に出てしまう事でしょうね。そうすればレーヴァテイル質を励起するものも無くなりますし、第三世代発症がしなくなるのと同じ理由で、極限病発症もしなくなります。

The Border Disease is an illness that triggers due to them having Reyvateil natures that are forced to connect to addresses that are outside the Soulspace Server's normal range. So unfortunately, there's no way to fully cure it at the moment. However, it's possible to prevent its onset by removing the factors that cause it from around the people. The most effective method to prevent it would be leaving the Third Tower's effective range. Once they do that, it will be impossible for the Reyvateil natures to get excited due to the same reason it would render Third Generations unable to awaken, which would nullify the onset of the Border Disease entirely.

現状の技術でβ純潔種のIPDを生み出すことは可能ですか？ 前回の投稿で複数のRT質を持つ場合、影響範囲に居れば同時発症もありえるとありましたが、第二塔はATDの発症が起きますが、HDはともかくIPD質の混在はありますよね？今までATDとIPDの二重発症は無かったのですか？ (ババンゴ売り)

Is it possible to create Pureblooded β-Type IPDs with the current technology? In a submission from a previous issue it was said that if someone has Reyvateil qualities, they could only have them awaken as long as they were in the range of the Tower, but since ATDs could awaken in the Second Tower, would that also be the case for HDs that have IPD ancestry? And there wasn't anyone so far who had both ATD and IPD Reyvateil qualities? (Babango Seller)

今の技術でβのI.P.D.を生み出すことは困難ね。それ以前に、マニュアル通りの形で通常のβ純血種を「ちゃんと理解した上で」製造出来るようになる方が先よ。 現在、第三塔や、第一塔でもプラティナではβ純血種の製造技術は残っているけど、それはインスタントな形で残っているだけで、実際に全ての理論を理解しているわけではないのよ。要するにロストテクノロジーであり、ブラックボックスを抱えた状態で何とか動いている、というわけ。 でも、I.P.D.でβを作るためには、その全てを理解して、１から設計しなければならないわ。もちろん理屈上は、サーバーアドレスを変えてやれば、何となくI.P.D.βになるような気はするけど、今のところそれをやりたがっている科学者はいなさそうね。

Creating β IPDs with the current technology would be very difficult. Before we could do that, it would be necessary to be able "fully understand" how normal Pureblooded β-Types are created first. Currently, the only places that still have the necessary technology for creating Pureblooded β-Types are the Third Tower and Platina in the First Tower, but since they only remain as instant-like shapes of that technology, we actually don't understand completely the theoretical principles behind their creation. In short, its has become a kind of lost technology, and the systems that create it have become somewhat like a black box: we know it works but we don't know how. But to create an IPD β it would be necessary to understand all of that and design them from zero. Of course, theoretically I have the feeling we could just create an IPD β by changing their Server addresses, but it doesn't seem like there are any scientists who are interested in trying it out.

みうさんの妄想道場かも知れないけど、無いっぽいのでテクニカルサービスセンターに御邪魔致します。 将来外宇宙から異星の方々等が御来訪されたりした場合に、 レーヴァテイル個々人専用で塔(スーパーコンピューター)の機能を凝縮した様な詩魔法を増幅させつつ宇宙空間で単独行動可能なロボットスーツが誕生したりする可能性は有るのでしょうか？ 最初は特殊スーツでは無く塔の影響範囲外での航宙艇の艦内にて詩魔法を使用出来ないかとの模索から始まると思いますし、そもそも船外単騎行動をするに当っては先にレーヴァテイル以外の騎士等が現在の飛空艇の進化系としての航宙艇を使用する事になると思うので、此処に書いた様な事は実現するにしてもずっと未来の御話だとは妄想しますが。 想像したら楽しい！ 詩魔法は攻撃だけの手段じゃないし、この場合の詩支援スーツはアルトネリコがスーツサイズに成った様なモノで、心の護が管理を司る可能性もあるし 技術が衰退しているとしても、レーヴァテイル質の発言には個人差しか影響しない事もあって、作中の様にアグレッシブな行動をする人が沢山居る世界なんだから 天才的な技術の進歩に貢献する人がクルシェ以外にももっと沢山出て来てもなんの不思議も無いし！ こんな感じでイキナリ【アルトネリコ～外宇宙進出編～】なんか妄想しちゃいましたが… 一応発端はシュレリアさんがリンケージの着心地が「ゆったりふわふわ」だと仰っていたので、ちょっと考えてたらこうなりました；んですよ？　…OTL Wee yea ra firle inferiare Orica m.a.m. sphaela . (レイジングビート)

While this would be better for Miu's Delusion Dojo, since it seems to have disappeared, I'll intrude with this submission in the Technical Service Center. If people ever left for outer space and other planets in the future, would it be possible for them to create robot suits that can act by themselves that would be able to amplify all kinds of Song Magic by condensing the functions of he Towers (Super Computers) into personal Servers for each Reyvateil? This idea didn't begin as special suits, but rather as a search for a way in which it would be possible to use Song Magic in outer space, where there are no Towers, and then I decided to come up with a way in which non-Reyvateil personnel like knights could act using independent ships that were like an evolved version of the currently existing airships. That's the kind of distant future story I imagined that could be done someday even if nothing I wrote here ends up becoming reality. It's all because imagining things is fun! Song Magic isn't just for attacking after all, and in this situation, the support suits would be suit-sized Ar tonelico-like devices, which could be administrated by Mind Guardians. And even if there's a technological decay, it should have no effect aside of the individual differences when it comes to the manifestation of the Reyvateil genes, which means there'd be a lot of aggressive people like in the world of the games. And it'd be pretty weird that several people gifted when it comes to technology like Krusche didn't appear with the passing of time! It's in this way that I ended up imagining an "Ar tonelico ~Outer Space Travel Chapter~", but... Given that the person who would launch this would be the same Shurelia who says she feels better wearing her Linkage because it's "comfortable and light", do you really think it'd be become like that with her at the helm...? OTL Wee yea ra firle inferiare Aurica m.a.m. sphaela. (Racing QBit)

なかなか面白い妄想ね。私に比べたらまだ全然だけど、素質有るわ。 詩魔法自体はアルトネリコサーバーが完全に制御している人工的なものだから、確かに遠い未来にはそれをダウンサイジングし、乗り物に搭載することは出来るかも知れない。 もしくは、地表ではなくて宇宙にSHサーバーを浮かばせて、それを母艦として、周囲に無数に存在する戦闘機がその母艦との通信を行う増幅装置を持ち備え、パイロットであるレーヴァテイルの詩魔法を増幅する。 宇宙であれば、人体に影響のある程の導力量であっても気にせず使えるし、強力な詩魔法をぼんぼん使うことが出来るかもしれないわね。 ああ、でも戦闘機は２人乗りで、レーヴァテイルとダイバーが一緒に乗るわけね。それで戦闘機に乗りながらもダイブできたりして、それによって詩魔法を紡いだり、それ以上の事…そうね、例えばコスモスフィアと現実のフリップフロップによる時空間超越航行が出来るかも………と、妄想はこれくらいにしておくわ。 言わなくてもわかると思うけど、全部私の妄想だから深読みしても体力を無駄に使うだけよ。

A very interesting delusion. While it doesn't quite reach the same level as my own, it has a certain value to it. Song Magic itself are artificial constructs controlled entirely by the Ar tonelico Server, so it's very true that it could be possible to downsize it in the far away future and install equipment that has its same functions in a vehicle. Otherwise, it would be necessary to put a SH Server on space, maybe like a installed device on a mothership, while the countless fighters that would be around it would each be equipped with amplification devices for the communications between them and the mothership, allowing for the amplification of the Song Magic of the Reyvateils piloting the fighters. And since it's space, while there would be some effect on the body due to the amount of Symphonic Power consumed, they most likely would continue using it without paying it any mind, so they might still be able to use powerful Song Magic like usual. Ah, but if the fighters are two-seaters, a Reyvateil and her Diver could board them together. That way, they could Dive as they are in the fighter to craft Song Magic, and also... right, they might be able to do things like cruise through time and space by flip-flopping between the Cosmosphere and reality... but well, this all is no more than a delusion. And this should go without saying, but since all this was just one of my delusions, reading too deeply into it would just be a waste of energy.
