[A gentle boy's voice comes in suddenly, mid-word.]
--t'll turn on? Yeah, I think that worked... Man, this is pretty cool! Is this heaven or something? It's not quite what I imagined... it's a lot greener, for one thing! And my wings aren't pure white, like I thought people were supposed to get when they died. But I guess I can't really complain too much... I mean, this is better than no afterlife at all, right?
I guess I didn't expect heaven to have weird magic notebook things, either, come to think of it. But then, I've never met someone who could tell me about heaven first-hand! It's not like getting married, after all, most people don't live to tell you about it later. Hahaha...
Gosh, I guess I don't even know if anyone's listening to this. Um, is anyone? ... If you are, hi!
[And then he stops the recording, looking around himself at the forest out here. Gosh, it's so lush... way more lively than the forests he'd been in! And he can see all kinds of birds in the trees, and small animals skittering about...
It was weird, that Heaven would be so much more alive than Earth.
Slowly, he drifts around the forest in his cotton pants, floating with his bony toes sometimes grazing the undergrowth and mulchy soil, absorbing the life around him and... and wondering about his friends, that he felt like he'd just seen a few minutes ago, just before he'd woken up here.
They were probably already arguing, knowing them!]

Though, this isn't really the afterlife--it's Luceti. I can understand the mix-up. It has a very...afterlife feel to it, when you first get here. What with the wings and all.
[ voice ]
Luceti...? [He sounds confusedly curious, asking,] Man, I've never heard of a place like that before... and if I'm not dead, why do I have wings? And why is everything so... alive?
I don't feel any shades around here, either...
[ voice ]
It's a long story. This place? Most of us haven't heard about it before. At least, not until we got here. The wings are...well, they're like a package deal. You get brought here? The Malnosso--they're the one's responsible for this--give you wings. I'm not really sure about their purpose, but...well, they're there and it's best to leave them be.
I'm not sure about things being alive--I mean, they're pretty alive on my world, too, and I've never heard of shades, but...I'll assume them not being here is a good thing.
[ voice ]
[Emil's got to admit, of all the things science has done to his body, this is pretty much the nicest.]
Yeah, Shades are pretty bad! They didn't usually cause me any trouble before I started traveling, but they've been attacking and killing loads of people, especially over the past few years. And one of them kidnapped my best friend's daughter...
[... Though Emil's not sure they're all evil. A lot of them, maybe, but...
He shakes off the thought, repeating keep moving forward in his head, and tells the guy he's talking to,] You're really lucky to have not heard of them!
[ voice ]
[ So something like that plagued this kids world? It didn't sound pleasant. Far from it, actually. ] Yeah, this is the first I've heard about something like that. Kind of glad I've never had to deal with them, but--well, I hope your friend can find his daughter.
[ He couldn't imagine what it would be like, to have your child kidnapped by something like these 'shades'. ]
[ voice ]
[Still sounding terrifically optimistic, Emil informs,] Well, if everything was going well, they should've already rescued her by now! Last I remember, we were already in the villain base, so... I'm sure Nier's back with his daughter by now!
[ voice ]
[ This kid ;o; ] Ah, that's good. Families being torn apart are never a good thing.
[ voice ]
Hahaha, yeah... [He sighs, almost wistfully, and confesses,] I just wish I had a chance to have met her myself. And to see how happy Nier was to save her... but as long as they're together again, I'm happy!
