I guess if this place really is just a memory we can't change something that's already been frozen the way it is. [mysterious is one word for it.] But this one was kinda weird...it felt like a really familiar fight to me. Right down to the kraken.
Yeah. It was a whole...thing. I don't know, we were there for something else because Barbossa had enough darkness in his heart that the place was crawling with Heartless.
[...but anyway.] That's actually kind of what I wanted to talk to you about. Have you spoken to any of the leaders lately?
[the funny thing is that he doesn't always understand what alphinaud's actually saying, so he's just inferring as he goes.]
It's like...they recently found out some stuff about the nova and what the disturbance was. I don't know how it helps us, but it might give us a better insight to what's going on and what we might be able to do.
Supposedly they discovered there's a monster that's eating the nova around. That's why we're losing our memories the way we are.
But that message she mentioned... [ Hm. ] ... Naturally, 'tis mere conjecture on my end, for I have only secondhand accounts to go on. Yet I could almost believe these two events could be connected.
There was a message about the subjects failing the experiments being run. That was part of the memory we were going through. But there was the message from the last monster we fought about destiny.
[ah. his eyes narrow a bit, and he decides to fill in the blanks.]
"Do you believe you can change destiny? Time has already been written. There's nothing you can do, is there? Except try, try again. But you'll never make it. Not yet. But remember, this is your last chance."
Oh. The other was just about the experimentation subjects and some of the monsters that failed despite the injection of this serum. I didn't think anything of it at the time, but then I talked to Ochako. She said they had to use these serums on members of the other group and it turned them into monsters, too.
I didn't think there was much about the two places that were related, but that one sticks out.
It sounded like it wasn't as stable as what the lab wanted on our end. And if injecting it turned Won and Xie Lian into vicious monsters themselves...probably not.
But we don't know what the intention was in the first place either.
Nope. It was across the bridge, I guess, but it's gone now. I thought about going back but I couldn't figure out how to do it. I think it's blocked forever now.

Unsurprising. 'Tis their wont to seek treasure in places they have no business being.

A few idle conversations, but that was all. Was aught amiss...?

The message about the subjects? Or the message about time? We heard a couple of things in there but one of them stands out to me more than the other.

"Do you believe you can change destiny? Time has already been written. There's nothing you can do, is there? Except try, try again. But you'll never make it. Not yet. But remember, this is your last chance."
That was the whole thing that monster said to us.

That it does. I wonder if the serum worked as intended.

You are correct. 'Twould be only conjecture from here on, and we have no way of returning to where it all happened.
Or so I presume.
