私は６回／分も転けたりしません。最高でも１分間に１回程度ですから、投稿道場の悪質な誤情報を鵜呑みにしたりしないで下さいね。
こんにちは、シュレリアです。	I haven't tripped even a sixth of the number of times I had done so far. The highest tripping frequency I had was about that of a trip per minute, so please don't listen to the malignant misinformation that was spread about me at the Submission Dojo.
Hello everyone, I'm Shurelia.
	
シュレリア様、最初にほたる横丁に降り立ったときに、その瞬間転けて港の端っこまで転がっていったじゃないですか。私が慌てて止めに行かなかったら、今頃雲海の下まで転落していましたよ？	Lady Shurelia, didn't you trip at the very end of the Firefly Alley airport the first time you went there? If I hadn't panicked and stopped you, you'd have fallen all the way into the Sea of Death, right?
	
…きゅ？	...Kyu?
	
何となくアルトネリコ１勢の話になっているから私も便乗してこちらで。でも今回の質問内容は２の話が多いわね。
そんなこんなでテクニカルサービスセンター、今日も何となく回答していくわよ。	Since it somehow ended becoming an energetic story about Ar tonelico 1, I'll take it as a chance to come aboard. However, most of the questions this time around ended being about 2's story.
No matter what kind Technical Service Center this becomes, I'll somehow answer the questions today too.
すっかり寒くなり、薄着の皆様にはご苦労が多いことと思います。
さて、ヒュメリはさーしゃが見事作りあげたそうですが、詩を構築するにあたり必要となる塔の制御に関する情報は、どのように入手したのでしょうか。思いつくところは、1.市井の民に公開されている、2.レーヴァテイルならみんな知っている、3.クローシェ様の支援ですが、いかがなものでしょう。
(santapiyo)	It's gotten so cold, that I think everyone who's lightly dressed will be having a lot of trouble now.
Well, looks like Sasha did an excellent job creating Hymmeli, so I was wondering how did she manage to get information that'd be necessary to structure the Song like that about controlling the Towers. The only guesses I have are: 1. It's common knowledge for the people, 2. All the Reyvateils know about it, 3. She had Lady Cloche's support for it. So which one would it be?
(santapiyo)
	
皆さんもご存知の「フィラ理論」と、その他にも幾つかの理工書がありまして、それを一生懸命解読しましたです！
さすがに当時のメタファルスでは、生きた形で塔の制御に関する情報は得られませんでしたので…。でも、さーしゃの解読した技術は、わかりやすい図説付きの解説書を作って、後の人の為に残そうと思っているです！	It's because I put so much effort into deciphering the "Fila Theories" you all know, and also all other sorts of scientific and technical books.
As you might expect, in the current Metafalss there's no way to get any information about how to control the Towers from a living being... but I've been thinking I'd like to make the technologies and techniques I deciphered into manuals that have easy-to-understand diagrams, so I can leave them for the people in the future.
	
それなら私も協力するわ。今流行なのは漫画形式の解説書よ。だからさーしゃの解説書も「萌えてわかるヒュムネクリスタル」とか「萌える波動科学」にすべきね。後世のエンジニア志願者が１０倍になるわ。	In that case, I'll help too, and we should try making these into manga-style manuals like the ones that are so popular right now. So you should make manuals like "Learning Hymn Crystals through Moe" and "Moe Wave Science", Sasha. That should increase the number of prospective engineers for the next generation tenfold.
	
あわわ、そうなんですね！それはすごいです！！その時にはジャクリさんに絵を描いて貰うです。よろしくおねがいしますです！	Whoa, really!? That's amazing! I'd like to ask you to draw the pictures when that time comes, Jakuri! I'll be glad to work with you!
ティリアトゥルーでは御存命の様子のティリアさんはどれだけ生命力が低下しているのですか？
普通に生活していた様ですが……もしかして延命済なのでしょうか。
(オボンヌ密輸団)	How much has Tyria's life force decreased by the time the events in the Tyria True Ending take place?
It seemed like she was going to be able to live a normal life... is she using the Life Extending Agent or something?
(Funbun Smuggling Team)
	
んー、私自身も体感ではあまり感じられないんだけど、数値で見ると結構減ってるわ。まあ多分、ある臨界に達するまでは何ともなくて、それを越えるとプッツン…って感じだと思うけど。もちろん全然延命済みじゃないわよ。でも、そのうち……
この辺の話はまた改めてみんなに伝えられる機会があるかもしれないから、今は敢えてもったいぶるだけもったいぶって、秘密にしておく事にするわ。	Hmm, that's not something I can really feel myself, but as a numerical value, it has sharply decreased. Well, maybe it'd be fair to compare it... to something that seems fine as it gets close to its limit, and snaps when it goes over it. And of course, I'm not using the Life Extending Agent either. Instead, it's...
On second thought, I might have another chance to tell everyone more about this later on, but for now there is no need to do so, so I'll keep it a secret.
前回のサービスセンターでサラパさんが過去に人間に介入したのは事実だと言うのと同時に、神話には脚色や曲解が多々あるとおっしゃっていました。
だとすると、件の「Afezeria HARVESTASYA」ではサラパさんは実際にはどのような介入を行ったのでしょうか？
(n@gi)	On the previous Technical Service Center, Sarapatra told us that it was a fact that the Gods intervened in the lives of the humans, while at the same time saying that the myths were dramatized and distorted versions of the stories of their interventions.
In that case, what kind of intervention did she actually carry out in the aforementioned "Afezeria HARVESTASYA"?
(n@gi)
	
なぜかあの物語では私は悪人のように描かれているけど、実際には私の方が被害者なのよ。EXEC_HARVESTASYA/.で語られていたように、私はミュウと許嫁だったの。それは私とミュウの両親が決めた事であって、その当時の人間社会では絶対的な力を持っていたわ。それをあの泥棒猫ちゃんは横から奪い取っていったのよ。
まあ確かに、人生勉強という名の暇つぶしで人間として降りてきたとき、ミュウに一目惚れして許嫁設定にさせてもらったのは私だけど。	It seems that I somehow got painted like a villain in that story, but I actually was the victim there. As it was told in EXEC_HARVESTASYA/., I was Myu's fiancee. That was something that was decided between Myu's parents and mine, which was absolute at the time in the human societies. But then that poaching alleyway cat came into the picture and stole him.
But well, it's true that I descended as a human to kill sometime by studying how they lived, and that I gave myself the role of Myu's fiancee because I fell in love with him at first sight.
バイナリ野では記憶が担当した役に置き換わるだけで、人格や行動原理はプレイヤーの人間に準拠するのでしょうか。
(マスカルポーネ)	It's possible to change the personalities and values of the human players just by rewriting their memories with others when they are in the Binary Field?
(Mascarpone)
	
バイナリ野では、実際にダイブする人以外は全員架空の人物よ。通常は何か設定が無い限り、実際の人物の性格と同じにする事が殆どよ。でも私のバイナリ野のように設定上の人物がいる場合、元のキャラの身体だけを借りて、性格などは設定上の人物そのものにしてしまう事もある。
そもそもダイブする人以外が全員架空であるという時点で、何でもアリってことね。	All the people in the Binary Field aside of the Divers are virtual humans. Since they normally don't have any kind of preset configuration, it's possible to make them have the same personality as an actual person to a certain degree. But since this was a situation where I needed to have people in my Binary Field, I just borrowed the appearances of the original people and modified their settings to turn their personalities into those of the people I wished.
After all, nothing actually exists in the first place aside of the people involved in the Dive when there is one being conducted, so everything is fair game in them.
ソル・マルタが大地の心臓の外殻の形をしているのは、実際に中に大地の心臓が入ることになっていて、ソルマルタが出来た当初、ソル・シエールとソル・クラスタが古メタファルス律を使えるメタファルス民に謳を作らせて、フレリアに謳わせる予定だったのでしょうか・・・。
その結果メタファリカ成功の可否に関わらす大地の心臓ができればそれで良いってことで、彼女とメタファルスはAHPPの生け贄にされる予定だったのではと妄想しています。
そして生まれた大地の心臓を第３塔が発射という感じで、相当両国の偉い人たちは惑星の異常に焦っていたということでしょうか？
ラキの冷徹なまでのフレリアの維持最優先はラキの意思に関わらず、ソル・シエールの思惑に沿っていたと考えれば色々と納得できてきました。
(くろやん)	That Sol Marta has the same appearance as the external shell of a Heart of the Land maybe means it was actually supposed to have a Heart of the Land inside. So when it was first made, did Sol Ciel and Sol Cluster make the people of Metafalss, who could use the Ancient Metafalss Note, create a Song they planned Frelia to sing...?
As a result of that, the only thing they'd be caring about Metafalica's viability would be the possibility of creating a Heart of the Land, so I'm imagining that once they did it satisfactorily, both Frelia and Metafalss would be sacrificed in order to carry out the AHPP.Then, the created Heart of the Land would be shipped off to the Third Tower and shot off from there, since the most important people from both regions at the time were so flustered with getting rid of the abnormalities the Planet was suffering from?Also, Raki's most prioritized goal of protecting Frelia, to the point of always being so cool-headed about it, has nothing to do with Raki's own will, so I'm thinking she'd agree to carry out all sorts of orders to follow Sol Ciel's plans.
(Kuroyan)
	
うーん、メタファルスの塔でどういった計画が成されようとしていたのか、実は私も良くわかっていないんだ。でも、ティリアちゃんの役割を見るに私が生け贄になるのも何となく納得できるけど、そもそもティリアちゃんと違って私は惑星と対話できないし、主に塔を作る為の機能しか貰っていないから、あまり役に立たないと思うんだよね。
今だからわかってる事としては、メタファリカの成功云々以前に、ソルシエールの計画変更後はメタファリカ自体作る気が無かったって事かな。あと、そもそも第二塔にAHPPが移ってきた時点で第三塔計画はAHPPにとってもどうでもいい計画になっていたみたいだから、第二塔で大地の心臓を作って第三塔に持っていく、というのは無かったと思うよ。実際は第二塔からXPシェルを射出する予定があったみたいで、ムーンカルバートはその名残と言われているくらいだから、第二塔で完結する予定だったのは確かだね。
あと、第一紀のソルシエールとソルクラスタは最後まで友好関係を結べなかった２地域だから、両国共同でAHPPや再生事業をしていた事は１つも無いよ。	Hmm, I didn't really know either which were the plans for building the Tower at Metafalss. But while I'm willing to agree that I'd become a sacrifice just from seeing what Tyri's role was, I can't even converse with the Planet the way Tyri does in the first place, so since I wasn't given any functions aside of those I used to create the Tower, I wouldn't serve any purpose in the AHPP.
Now I look back on it, I was always wondering why Sol Ciel changed their plans to the point it seemed they didn't care about Metafalica itself even though we were nowhere close to successfully creating it. Also, by the time the AHPP had transferred all their operations to the Second Tower, they seemed to not care anymore about the Third Tower project, so I don't think they were planning to use the Second Tower to create a Heart of the Land to then ship it to the Third. Still, it's true it seems like they were planning to fire off the XP Shell from the Second Tower once it was completed, as after all, we have the name of the Moon Culvert as proof of it.
Finally, Sol Ciel and Sol Cluster were regions that didn't have any sort of friendly relations up to the very end of the First Era, so it's impossible they were working together in the AHPP or any other sort of regeneration project.
延命剤が必要なくなることから惑星が再生された現在では塔の影響範囲外に移住するレーヴァテイルはやっぱり多いのでしょうか？
(音緒)	Since they wouldn't need the Life Extending Agent anymore, did many Reyvateils move away from the Towers' effective range now the planet has been regenerated?
(Soundstring)
	一部のレーヴァテイル第三世代や人間は、地上に降りて暮らす事を試みたりしているようですね。ただ、やはり過酷とはいえ大牙などは環境もコントロールされていましたし、再生したばかりの地表よりも住みやすい事は確かなんです。
ですから、地表に降りてもあまりに過酷な為にまた戻ってきたり、とても厳しい生活をしているようです。５年もすれば森も出来て、環境も落ち着いて地震もだいぶ減ってきますので、少しずつ地表に移住する人も増えてきます。
延命剤不要目的で地表に降りるレーヴァテイルも当然居ますが、実際は上記のように大牙の生活の方が良い事もあり、大抵の第三世代はそのまま大牙に留まっていますよ。	Part of the Third Generation Reyvateils and humans once descended to the surface and tried living in it for some time. However, it proved to be harsher to them even more than in places like the Great Fang, which still have environmental control, so it was easier for them to live in such locations than to be living on the newly-restored surface.
Therefore, they went back to the Tower shortly after these events, and it seemed like they had gone through great hardships. Once five years pass, the forests will begin sprouting again and the environment will settle enough for the number of earthquakes to diminish, so the amount of people that will move to the surface will increase little by little.And naturally, several Reyvateils descend to the surface because they don't want to continue being dependent on the Life Extending Agent, but since the life on the Great Fang is far more comfortable to them, like I just explained, the grand majority of the Third Generations have decided to stay there.

４周年祭以降、しばらく落ち着いていたトウコウスフィアでしたが、遂にコーナーが動きました。次回からおためし開催する「さーしゃの憩いの場」を、どうぞ日々の癒しにご活用下さい。
４周年祭が終わった後、しばらくはのんびりと定例だけで過ごそうかな、と思っていたのですが、どうもやはりそういうのは性には合わないようです。なんかウズウズしてしまって、ジタバタしてしまって、新しい事をやりたくなってしまうのです。
皆さんからの御意見やご投票と私のやりたい欲が合ってしまうと、それが突然実行されてしまうのがアルトネリコの習性とも言えるかもしれません。ですので、今後ともドシドシ御意見ご応募下さい。ぽっと何か実現してしまうかもしれません。
(土屋)	While the Toukousphere has calmed down quite a bit since we held the Fourth Anniversary Festival, the corners finally began moving again. Next time we'll inaugurate with the "Sasha's Relaxation Corner" section you all asked for, so please make sure to give it good use to make your days more relaxing.
Now the Fourth Anniversary Festival has ended, I was thinking I'd like for a little calm to become something of a more regular occurrence, but it looks like it's something that doesn't go with me. Whenever that happen, I get all eager and begin wriggling around, because it only makes me want to try doing something I've never done before.
Trying to mix and match my own desires with the opinions and votes you always send and then suddenly carrying them all out together might be pretty much what makes Ar tonelico what it is. So please, make sure to continue shooting off your opinions as much as you want, as they could be used in making something a reality.
