When I looked for Fayette, who had left while I stood guard alone, I found her at the factory entrance.
She was alert but not standing guard, she just seemed to be alone with her thoughts.
Fayette	"Ah, Conductor? You're worried that I'm upset? Not to worry, I'm quite calm."
Fayette	"I just can't help feeling a bit angry at the cruelty of it all."
Conductor	The fact that the mechanical doll was a human being? It doesn't seem like that's the only thing you're angry about.
Fayette	"......"
Fayette	"It's not like we didn't expect this outcome when the light obliterated this village."
Fayette	"I've seen plenty of scenes like this before, in different forms. Of course, I was angry and sad. And now I can keep it to myself, because that's what I've been taught to do as an Out-Sider."
Fayette	"But there are people in the Order who, no matter how hard they try to keep their cool, their straight hearts just break and overflow. I like that kind of people."
Fayette	"And the cruel thing is that you have to tell them - 'There are no survivors'."
Conductor	You mean... Queensway?
Fayette	"Yeah. She had it rough all day. She has always believed in the possibility of survivors, even while we've made her comply with the priorities that we have to protect as a unit."
Fayette	"We've finally got to the stage where we can search, and with what we've heard from Pittsburgh, Queensway is looking for survivors, very hopeful."
Fayette	"And now there's 'another possibility' on her mind. If someone told her that, it'll be a sunken ship."
Conductor	But nobody said anything; Putra and Vivienne both lend her their hands without saying a word.
Fayette	"I know how she feels, maybe Queensway could do something about it. Maybe she could find one thing, one thing that gives her hope. She has that kind of appeal."
Fayette	"She's full of danger to look at, but she has the most important thing in a knight. That's why I think it would be too cruel to tell her the truth."
Fayette	"But that's not the way it has to be. That's our job. Ours."
Queensway	"Excuse me, Sir Conductor, Miss Fayette. May I have a word?"
Fayette	"Yeah, sure. Have a seat there."
Queensway	"We have just been going through the rubble with Miss Vivienne's team and we have found a new mechanical doll."
Fayette	"So there's another one under the rubble. It's a bit different from the others."
Queensway	"Yes. About, that..."
Fayette	"It's all right. Just tell it like you see it."
Queensway	"Actually, the mechanical doll... was holding another doll."
Fayette	"......"
Queensway	"No, that doll is a regular dress-up doll. It's a doll made of cloth sewn together and..."
Fayette	"I know."
Queensway	"What?"
Fayette	"I know. I feel the same as you do."
Queensway	"Oh..."
Fayette	"Was the mechanical doll holding the doll smaller than the others?"
Queensway	"......"
Fayette	"Was there another one nearby?"
Queensway	"......"
Fayette	"Was that... the only one?"
Queensway	"...She's alone.'
Queensway	"She's like, protecting a little doll under the rubble..."
Fayette	"Don't cry now. Hold it in."
Queensway clutched the ragged doll, covered in machine oil, and gritted her teeth hard, very hard.
Queensway had realised this. The reality is that there are many villagers in this factory who, for some reason or another, have all been turned into mechanical bodies at once.
Of all the possibilities we had assumed, the worse one has hit us. There are no survivors here and what is left is a mechanical doll that has completely stopped moving.
--They are, the villagers' bodies.
Fayette	"I was just about to tell everyone. Probably all the mechanical dolls here are the inhabitants of this village. They are completely different from the Machine Soldiers we fought."
Queensway	"Why..."
Queensway	"Why does the Giant Tree do such terrible things? Wasn't the St. Iris Giant Tree the protector of its people and the world?"
Fayette	"Calm down Queensway, I know what you mean, but it's not right."
Queensway	"I can't calm down. How can I calm down when I see someone who has turned into a machine?"
Vivienne	"Queensway..."
Putra	"So that's, what happened..."
Hearing Queensway's breaking down in tears, the other Train Knights who were in charge of their respective jobs gathered around Queensway.
They all look worriedly at Queensway.
Fayette may make her confront this reality with even harsher words. But if she did, Queensway may not be able to bear it. I'm sure she had that thought in her mind.
However, Fayette did not confront Queensway with any more cruelty.
Fayette hugged Queensway tightly as she tried to push her emotions away.
Fayette	"You're right. It's certainly not right to be calm in a situation like this. I'm sorry. I'm a bit too used to death."
Fayette	"But you can't blame the Giant Tree. The Giant Tree was already dead when it shone its light. That's what that creepy iron fortress called the Steel Tree did. We have to find out what it is. Isn't that right?"
Queensway	"...Yes."
Fayette	"We have to accept this reality in order to move forward. Because if we don't, we won't be able to solve our problems."
Fayette	"I hope I'm wrong. You can think of me as a cold-hearted bitch."
Fayette	"But if the inhabitants of this place have been turned into machines and lost their lives, we have to find out the cause as soon as possible. Before there are further victims."
Fayette	"This is no time for sorrow. We must restore peace, for the sake of this little girl."
Queensway	"......"
Queensway	"Peace..."
Queensway	"I will restore peace. By this sword, I swear it."
Fayette	'Yes. This is the country of peace and iridescent clouds. You are a knight of St. Iris, protector of this country."
Queensway wiped her eyes with her sleeve and straightens her back.
And as a knight of St. Iris, she faced the cruel reality.
--Peace, to protect... peace.
--I will keep the peace in this village!
Queensway	"That voice now..."
Fayette	"Oi everyone, heard that?"
Vivienne	"Oui, I heard that."
Putra	"I heard it loud and clear."
--Intruders will be eliminated. I am the vigilant of this village.
--My mission is to defend this place to the death. --Anyone who threatens the peace of this village must leave at once!
Pittsburgh	"That's exactly what I heard. There's a living person out there somewhere."
Fayette	"If so, they're hostile. All hands to battle stations. Prepare for surprise assaults."
--As long as I'm here, they can't do what they want! --Even without the Knights of St. Iris, I will defend this place!
Pittsburgh	"......"
Pittsburgh	"...Gun loading sounds."
Pittsburgh	"Sniper! Everyone take cover!"
A human voice echoed through the factory at night. The voice, which was neither machine nor demon, claimed the same 'peace' as ours and fired bullets...
