Dialogue[]
Opening:[]
- (In the church, the ceremony has begun. People are praying to the icon in a low voice, with candlelight cast upon their faces.)
- (People sit on benches, with their eyes closed and hands clasped in front of their chests. Boys and girls in sea-blue suits sing songs of blessings with organ accompaniment.)
- (When the song stops, the Priest steps on the podium at the center of the church and begins saying prayers.)
- Priest: The ship of God comes from the east with wind blowing it forward.
- Priest: The ship of God returns to the east, full of believers and blessings.
- (People say prayers repeatedly along the low voice of the Priest and the solemn organ music, wishing for a response from God and his protection against the upcoming end of the world.)
- (The prayer stops along with the music while the bell at the highest outside hall tolls again.)
- (From the first one in the first row, the believers walk one by one to the Priest who dips water using fresh plants and flicks on the hands and feet of the believers.)
- (The believers give a salute to the Priest one by one and leave the church.)
- Nikki: What is the Priest doing?
- Nancy: This is the last step of all ceremonies of the religion, reminding the believers to keep the guidance and teachings of God in mind.
- Momo: What is it in his hand?
- Nancy: It is hyssop growing on the way to the east. It is said that the plant only lives where God passes.
- Nikki: There is always ocean in stories about the Oriental Religion.
- Nancy: Yes, its origin is related to the ocean. The Prophet Ead led people towards east to find heaven after seeing the hell in the western end.
- Nikki: Towards the east? No wonder the name is Oriental Religion.
- Momo: But there is nothing about ocean?
- Nancy: On the way to the eastern end, people were blocked by the ocean.
- Nancy: People built many ships to cross the ocean and arrived at a desolate island on the east end of Miraland.
- Nancy: They did not give up, but built the largest ship in the world — the Lonely Whale.
- Momo: The island must be the Ruin Island!
- Nancy: Not seeing God in the end, the worshipers still believe that the oriental heaven and God exist. Maybe God does not want us to see him.
- Nikki: Does that deny the trip towards the eastern end?
- Nancy: On the contrary, the worshipers believe that God is watching us and only people with experience can be blessed by God. The trip is a trial.
- Nikki: It seems that the process of the trial is most important to you people.
- Nancy: Indeed. The cross we wear now is built anchor-shaped. I design a suit of sea breeze-themed clothes based on this.
- Nancy: But I think there is room for improvement. Nikki, can we have a contest to inspire me?
- Nikki: Sure!
