	今回は心の護特集なのねーーー！！	This time, we'll have a Mind Guardian special!!
	偶然なんだけど、すごい偶然なのよーーー！！	It's all sudden, but a great all sudden!!
	なんと、全投稿の半数が心の護に関する質問だったという！！	Qué!? Around half of the submissions were all questions about Mind Guardians!!
	そんなわけで、私達４人でモリモリ回答するわよ？ 「こころのもり」な、だけに。	Does that mean we'll answer as wardens, the four of us? Well, that's to be expected from the "Mind Wardens".
	シャキーーーーーン！！！	Ba-dump tish!!

モリモリ回答するわよ We'll answer them as wardens.

こんにちは、早速質問です。 ダイブした人は、コスモスフィアから帰還出来るのは当たり前ですよね。 では、ダイブした人がコスモスフィア内で何がしらの手段を使って、心の護と一緒に現実世界に帰還することは可能なのでしょうか？ ※何がしらというのは、例えば心の護を縛るとか… （マイティー）

Hello, here's a quick question. It's obvious that someone who Dived would be able to return to the real world from the Cosmosphere, right? But would it be possible for them to bring the Mind Guardian with themselves back to reality if they used some method while they were in the Cosmosphere? ※For example, tying up the Mind Guardian or something... (Maitee)

そのようなことはまかり通らん！！ それは例えば、夢の中に出てくる人物を現実に連れてくることと同じであるぞ！ ただ、確かに何らかの形でデータ化を行えば、擬似的に具現化させる事はできるかもしれん。 言うならば、プログラムデータを解析し、３Ｄモデルデータを取得して再現するようなものである。導体Ｄ波の技術が高度に発達していれば、しっかりと質量を持った心の護も作れるであろう。 だがしかし！それはモラル的には御法度である。なぜなら、人の心を覗くことに他ならないからである！

Eso nunca pasará!! That would be the same as, for example, bringing back to reality a person that appeared in one of your dreams! Still, while it's true that if we could be put into data form in some way, we might be able to undergo a pseudo-materialization process. That's to say, by analyzing our program data, we could be able to be reproduced by copying our 3-D model data. And if the Dynamic D-Wave technologies advanced beyond a certain point, it'd be even possible to make Mind Guardians that possessed an actual mass in the real world. Sin embargo! From the ethics standpoint, that'd be strictly forbidden because it'd be nothing else but mere spying on the minds of other people!

I.P.Dには心の護が存在しないそうですが、これはI.P.Dが発症した際に心の護が消滅するのでしょうか。 それとも、先天的に心の護が存在しないのでしょうか。 （ぱくまん）

Looks like Mind Guardians don't exist in the IPDs, but is this due to the Guardians being annihilated at the moment of the IPD's outbreak? Or the IPDs don't have Mind Guardians as an innate trait? (Pakuman)

仕様上存在し得ない…というのが正しいかもしれないわね。 心の護だって、想いの産物なのよ。更に言えば、最も心の深いところに存在する想いなの。 どういう形にせよ、レベル７に境界門があるＩ．Ｐ．Ｄ．では、それより深いところで創られる想いである心の護を具現化させることは出来ないわ。 また、そのレベル８以上の領域は、緩く他人と繋がっているために想いが不安定であり、また強い想いも徐々に周囲に伝播して拡散してしまうから、強烈な想いの個体である心の護は生まれにくいわね。

The most correct way of saying it... might be that this wasn't in their specifications. This is because the Mind Guardians are a product of strong feelings, and furthermore, these feelings only exist in the deepest areas of the mind. However, given that the Boundary Gate only exists up to Lv. 7 in the IPDs, it's impossible for areas deeper than that to create the feelings embodied in the Mind Guardians. And also, given that the IPDs are all loosely connected in the areas from Lv. 8 onwards, their feelings are unstable, and no matter how strong the feelings they might produce are, they will gradually propagate and scatter throughout the surrounding areas, making it very difficult for them to give birth to an agglomeration of intense feelings such as what the Mind Guardians are.

心の護が消滅、または新しい護が生まれる、ということはあるようですが、心の護が成長する。ということはあるのでしょうか？ たとえば、ミシャが幼いうちからレーヴァテイルとして覚醒し、幼いライナーを心の護として設定したのち、共にすごし、互いに成長していく中で、心の護も共に成長するのでしょうか？ ありうるのならば、あるいはそれは「成長」というより、「変化」や「消滅と誕生の繰り返し」によって成長しているように見えるだけなのでしょうか？ （kou）

Loos like when a Mind Guardian is annihilated, a new one can be born in its place, and they can also grow. But how would this happen? For example, if when Misha was a child, she awakened as Reyvateil, put young Lyner as her Mind Guardian, and they spent a lot of time together and grew up together, would the Mind Guardian also grow alongside her? Would this be possible, or instead, that "growth" would be actually seen just as a "transformation" or a "annihilation and new birth cycle" kind of growth? (kou)

成長する事はあるのね。 それは、その心の護のマスターが、その心の護をどのような存在として捉えているか、がキモになるのね。 例えばオリカの場合は「ぬいぐるみ」で、ミシャは「オカリナ」、そしてルカも「ぬいぐるみ」だから、みんな成長しないものなのね。 その場合、当然マスターはこれらの護が成長するという観念は持てないから、永遠にその形を留める事になるのね。 でも、それが明らかに成長するものの場合だと、もしかしたら成長するかもしれないのね。 でも、そこはマスター次第だから、永遠の16歳とかの設定だった場合は成長しないし、その辺は多種多様なのね。

They do grow. That's because the master of the Mind Guardian has grasped them as some kind of being, and thus become it becomes a part of her. For example, in Aurica's case it was a "stuffed doll", in Misha's an "ocarina", and in Luca's it was again a "stuffed doll", all things that don't grow. In these cases, since naturally the master usually doesn't have the notion that these kinds of Guardians will grow, they will keep the same shape forever. However, in the case of things that clearly grow, their corresponding guardians might grow too. However, since that depends on the master, if it was made as something like an eternal 16-year old, it won't grow, and like that, there are a great variety of examples.

また心の護の質問ですが、どんすけやゲンゴローはぬいぐるみとして具現化し、アヤタネくんは昔のアヤタネくんをミュールが精神的に具現化して心の護になった。みんなそれぞれ具現化していても大抵は原型を留めてますが・・・ハマの場合はオカリナはわかるのですが・・・女の子＋ネコ耳＋割烹着＋ツンデレはどこから湧いてきたのですか？ちょっと原型留めてなく具現化していますが・・・ （力イル）

I have other question about the Mind Guardians: Don Leon and Gengoro are both the embodiments of stuffed dolls, Ayatane became Mir's mental embodiment of the Ayatane from long ago and her Mind Guardian... although everyone is the embodiment of something, it seems that the typical pattern is just imitating the embodied item, however... I know Hama is an ocarina, but... where did the little tsundere girl with cat ears and coverall apron come from? Maybe the typical pattern doesn't just stop where I thought it did... (Kyle)

これはファッションなのよーー！！ というのは冗談で、この身体はミシャが小さい頃に想い描いていた「オカリナの精」みたいな妄想が生み出したものなのよ。 だから、キャラクターっぽいのは、子供的発想だから大目に見てあげて欲しいのよ。 割烹着を着ているのは、きっと「おふくろの味」が恋しかったからに違いないのよ！！

This is just fashion!! Just joking, as my body was created from the fantasies of the "spirit of the ocarina" in which Misha sketched her feelings when she was a child. So since my characteristics were conceived by an infantile mentality, I'd like you to please overlook them. As for why I'm wearing a coverall apron, that's just because she surely yearned for the "taste of homemade food"! There's no mistaking that!!

	そういえば、私達4人が集まったのは初めての事なのね！！	By the way, this is the first time we four have been together like this!!
	うむ！まさに奇跡の号と言わざるを得ないであろう！！	Hmm! I can't help but call this occasion "milagrosa"!!
	それは大げさなのよ！！	Don't exaggerate it so much!!
	ふふっ、たまにはこういうなごみ系テクニカルサービスセンターもいいものね。	Huhuhu, having a softened Technical Service Center like this every now and then wouldn't be a bad idea.
