	— Blanc

Blanc is a playable and supporting character of Super Neptunia RPG. She has lost her memory. Luckily as she wakes up she finds Noire/Super Neptunia RPG in the same scenario. Together the two make a living by completing quests for the Guild. Her pursuit of books is voracious, and recovering her memories are secondary to her literary hunt. She's a quick-thinker, but when she can't figure something out, she'll hold an internal meeting to come up with an answer.

Profile

Blanc

Blanc is the human form of the CPU White Heart. Blanc is soft-spoken and analytical. However messing with books is a sure fire way to return Blanc to her foul-mouthed angry nature.

Appearance

Blanc bears the appearance of a young girl, with a rather petite figure, dark blue eyes and light brown hair. Her hair is short, going down to her chin and her fringe is kept parted to the left. She is noted to commonly wear a large and puffy white hat on her head, with ornate blue lining and brown patterns on it. Her attire consists of a white top-dress which presumably goes down to her knees. This dress is sleeveless at the top, and has much chocolate-brown lining around that area. She seems to wear a brown belt over this dress, as to keep it form-fitting. Her final part of her outfit is excessively long and thick white and brown gloves, which nearly go up to her shoulder and have large frills protruding out of the back of them.

White Heart

White Heart is the goddess form of Blanc. She is direct to her point but much more foul mouthed than her human form.

Appearance

White Heart has the appearance of a young girl with a petite and slim figure. Her eyes are a crimson red, and her skin is very fair. Her hair is a sky-blue color, it is kept mostly free, and is of short length, barring her bangs, which reach down to her stomach. Her attire consists of a tight battle-suit, which is white and has minor touches of blue lining. The top itself appears as a swimsuit-like armor. The sleeves of this are detached, and reach all the way to her shoulder, with a pair of gauntlets being equipped on both of them, and mechanical like devices connecting the joint (elbow-forearm) of the sleeve.

Prologue
White Heart appears with Black and Green Heart to aid Purple Heart against a shadow. Neptune wonders why they are here, and though White Heart does not know, seeing her fellow goddess in need of aid is all the reason why the four of them work together to fight this shadow. After being victorious White, Black and Green Heart disappear from Purple Heart.
Defeat the Hunt Quest's monster at Ratchet Volcano
Blanc and Noire are fighting a monster at Ratchet Volcano for a Hunt Quest for the Lastation Guild. A stranger intervenes. Noire wonders who she is. Blanc tells Noire that she does not know her.

The stranger joins them and together they defeat the monster. The energetic stranger is excited that they were able to defeat it and thanks the pair. She introduces as Neptune.

Noire tells Neptune not to thank them, as she was just helping herself. In addition, Noire tells Neptune that she got in the way, while introducing herself. Blanc introduces herself as well.

Neptune then asks where they live and if they use Chat. Noire admits to Neptune hat they don't know. They both don't remember anything but their names.

Neptune wonders if there was a 3-for-1 deal on characters with amnesia or something. Noire struggles to understand Neptune but asks her if she can't remember anything as well. Neptune confirms that she can't remember anything. She wonders if they would have found a new shtick by now. Blanc wonders if she is allowed to say that.

Noire remarks that Neptune is flippant. She explains that the two of them are looking for anyone who might know who they are. Blanc agrees that they want their memories back but she is also looking for new books. Neptune thinks that is interesting then asks if Blanc can read. Suddenly, a book belonging to Neptune glows. Blanc wonders why the book is glowing as she has never seen a book glow before.

Neptune explains that it is a Histoire. Blanc ponders on Histoire. Neptune is glad that Blanc is curious and asks if she likes it. The book is pretty awesome. Histoire then shows some characters on its cover. Its a bunch of emoticons causing all the girls to wonder what was just said.

Neptune tells them that the glow means that the two of them are friends. They need to join her on her Hero's quest. Blanc does not want to as she wants to find books to read. Neptune tells Blanc that she has the perfect book and it glows. Blanc guesses it is and agrees to join her for a little while. Noire has no idea what Neptune is saying and she has to look for her memories so she says her farewells to Neptune.

Neptune repeats that this book glows when she is near allies, friends. This can't be a coincidence. They all lost their memories, so perhaps they can look for memories together. Noire is shaken but Noire resolves that she does not know Neptune and she seems suspicious, so she is leaving. Blanc calls out to Noire. Neptune notes that she was so lonely and here she thought that maybe she found a friend.

Noire is shaken again. Neptune notes that she really wanted to be Noire's friend. She repeats that for a bit. Noire wants friends and guesses she can keep them company for a bit. Neptune is glad that she just gained 2 new party members. She thinks she is doing great on her Hero quest. Blanc cannot believe how easy it was to sway Noire. Noire silences Blanc.

Neptune tells her new team that they should head back to the Guild and report to the lady.Report to Chrome at the Lastation Guild
Neptune and her party return with Histoire to Lastation Guild. Neptune reports to a lady back at the Lastation Guild. She has completed a mission as a Hero should. The lady tells her the mission was easy so she shouldn't get carried away. The lady sees Noire and Blanc and wonders who they are. Neptune reports that she has acquired allies, as Histoi- Histy started glowing. Noire and Blanc introduces themselves.

Blanc asks Neptune what the lady's name is. Neptune struggles to remember, so Chrome introduces herself. She notes they are one short. Noire asks if that means she knows who they are. Chrome tells them they will find out soon enough, as she does not feel like telling them.

Since Chrome is not willing to tell Noire, she declares she will have to get it out of her somehow. Chrome refuses to give up such information easily. Neptune announces that the plot thickens! What mysteries does the new character hold? She tells the audience to stay tuned.

Chrome smirks and asks them if they are going to try and force out of her. She is really strong. Noire tells Neptune that if she with them she has to try harder to get answers from Chrome. Blanc asks Chrome what she means by one short? Who are they missing? Noire did not catch that. Blanc tells Noire she needs to learn to read between the lines. She is too impatient. Noire's verbal beating is made worse with Neptune piling in.

Chrome tells the group that Histoire has an answer for them. Neptune tells Chrome that they couldn't read what showed up on the cover earlier. She asks Chrome to read it for them. Chrome tells them that it something only Goddesses can read. Neptune does not understand what Chrome means by this. Chrome tells Neptune that she is not a goddess any... anyway, so she can't read it.

Only goddesses can use Histoire's power and that is why she does not need it. Neptune notes that she is not a goddess, or is she? However, she can't read the text so why is that? Chrome has no idea. Blanc asks Chrome about Histoire's other powers than pointing out allies. Chrome tells Blanc she will find out soon enough.

Noire can't believe that is all Chrome is telling them. They can't trust her like this. Chrome is okay with this, and just for their information, there are 7 tomes out there that allow non-Goddesses to read Histoire. They should find them and they'll be able to read Histoire. Chrome tells them she has scattered them far and wide. Chrome takes her leave.

Neptune tells Chrome to wait but she already left. Noire wonders seriously, who is she? Chrome returns surprising Neptune and Noire. She forget one final reminder, Neptune is not to waste the money she earns. She has to be responsible and then Chrome leaves truely. Neptune is sad that she just leaves again. Blanc does not think Chrome is a bad person. Noire guesses that this is the case.

Blanc tells Neptune to ask Histoire about their other ally. Neptune thinks that is a good idea. Neptune asks Histoire and gets more emoticons as answers. This frustrates the group. Noire is glad that at least Histoire is answering them. Neptune decides that they need to find the tomes Chrome is talking about. Blanc thinks they can find some at Lowee's Archive.

This is the first time Neptune has heard of that. Noire remembers that they stopped by the place earlier. Perhaps a tome may be there. Neptune is glad that her party members are more useful than she thought. Noire can't believe what Neptune is saying. Blanc thinks it is settled and they must head to Lowee. Neptune likes this side of Blanc as she is eager to take on this quest.

Noire hopes that Blanc isn't just in it for the books. Blanc denies that this is the case and hurries the group forward. Noire does not care about Blanc's denial of her true interests.
Head to Lowee
Neptune and her party pass through Twin Mountains to enter Lowee. Neptune is impressed with the new town. Noire tells Neptune that the Archive was next to an amusement park that was under construction. Neptune asks more about the amusement park. Blanc notes that the amusement park was supposed to open soon. A Loween man confirms what Blanc says and adds that the amusement park is supposed to open today according to the flyer.

Neptune thanks the man and seeing the flyer, she reads that the opening is being postponed. Noire reads that Bombyx Mori bought the park and is doing some last minute repairs. Neptune wants to see the haunted house once it is done. Noire is visibly disturbed hearing that. Blanc bets that Noire is scared. Noire denies that she is afraid and redirects the party's focus on the Archive. Blanc confirms that Noire is indeed afraid. Neptune agrees with Blanc's assessment. Noire continues to deny her obvious fear and pushes the party to the Archive and storms off with Neptune and Blanc following.

Head to Akoop Archive
Neptune's party sees the guards to the entrance of Akoop Archive. Noire wonders what they are up to. Blanc observes that Bombyx Mori is guarding the Archive for some reason. Neptune concludes that if the bad guys are guarding something, then important stuff is in there. Blanc wonders why Neptune calls them bad. Noire is surprised Neptune would consider them bad and asks how she knows. Neptune explains that as a Hero, she knows.

Noire doesn't really see Neptune as a Hero as a few scenes ago, she was almost monster snack. Blanc ignores this and walks up to Bombyx Mori guards stating that she wants to enter the Archives. The guards refuse her entrance. Blanc understands and leaves. Blanc returns to Neptune and Noire and reports they cannot enter that way.

Neptune is disappointed. Noire wonders if there is a backdoor. Blanc has a second plan she wants to try. Noire is surprised by this and before she can protest Blanc, she tries her second plan. Neptune notes that Blanc is quite the go-getter.

Blanc tells the guard that there is a suspicious person in a direction away from the Archives and thinks they are up to something. The guards quickly leave their post to investigate this, opening up the way to the Archive for the heroes. Blanc reports that it is all clear. Neptune praises Blanc.

Inside the Archive, Neptune announces they are in. Noire tries to hush Neptune as they don't want to be discovered. Neptune realizes her mistake and quiets up. Blanc is in awe of the volume of books found in the Archive. Blanc skims through them and finds only history books or strategy guides for old games. She wonders where the novels are. Noire skims around and agrees that the books here are not books Blanc would like. Blanc wonders how this could be. Neptune wonders if Blanc will be okay.

Noire thinks an Archive like this would have important books in the basement. Blanc hurries the party to look around. Neptune agrees but asks what they are looking for, a basement or books. Blanc tells her they are looking for both.

Investigate Akoop Archive
The group investigates the archive but are not having any luck. Neptune admits that she is getting hungry. Noire admits she is not seeing any stairs to a hidden basement. Blanc can't believe this, that there is nothing. Her disbelief starts turning into frustration of not being able to find any books, novels, manga anything that she has not already read.

Neptune calls out to Blanc. Blanc's frustrations takes over. Noire tells Blanc that she needs to calm down. Blanc snaps at Noire to shut up. She angrily denounces this archive and kicks a shelf down. Neptune is stunned. Noire explains to Neptune that when Blanc gets too stressed out, she just snaps. Neptune thinks Blanc's transformation is terrifying.

Neptune notices the shelf Blanc kicked down. Behind the shelf was a hidden stairway. As Blanc begins to calm down, she reports that the way is now open. Noire can see that there is a hidden staircase. Neptune praises Blanc for finding the enemy hideout. Noire does not want to go in without a plan but Blanc rushes ahead.

In the basement, Blanc looks and smells around. She reports that there aren't any books nearby. Neptune agrees with Blanc's observations. She was joking earlier about the fact that this is the enemy's hideout but perhaps it is. Noire cannot believe Neptune hasn't caught on that given the fact that there were guards to this archive. This must be a Bombyx Mori base.

Blanc finds the act of gutting an archive and turning it into a base unforgivable. She calls Bombyx Mori truly evil. Neptune is glad Blanc now sees that Neptune was right about her accusations of Bombyx Mori. Noire is surprised that Blanc now believes Bombyx Mori is evil.

A couple of Bombyx Mori soldiers are heard in the distance. They are discussing someone important coming over and how they need to look busy for her. Neptune is worried that they are coming this way. Noire tells the group they need to hide. The party quickly hides. The soldiers begin to complain about having to sort out all these dangerous books. This is a waste of their time. A soldier suggests that they just burn all the books.

Noire wonders what they mean by dangerous books and what makes them dangerous. The soldiers leave so the party leaves their hiding spots. Neptune thinks that was close. Noire asks the party if they caught on Bombyx Mori's book burning. She finds it disturbing. Blanc finds the thought of that unforgivable. Noire tells Blanc to calm down.

Blanc assures Noire that she is calm. She also believes that they should split up as they would get caught if they are grouped up like this. Neptune finds this a good idea. Blanc decides to head to one direction, she instructs the group to look for clues and when they are done, they should regroup outside.

Investigate Akoop Ancient Archive once more
Blanc hears Noire's cries as she is captured by Bombyx Mori, who think they have caught a spy from the Resistance. She sees Neptune trying to rush ahead. Blanc whispers to Neptune to go back to the entrance so she won't get caught. Neptune does not want to as she needs to save Noire. Blanc points out that if she wanted to get caught too, she could try to rescue Noire. Neptune gets upset at this. Blanc reminds Neptune that their priority is regrouping.

She makes her way out of the archives and sees a suspicious person leaving the archives to Lowee. She thinks they are the spy Bombyx Mori was searching for.

Escape Akoop Archive
Neptune catches her breath after her quick getaway. She regroups with Blanc who is relieved to see her. Neptune recipocates Blanc's feelings but quickly remembers about Noire and the fact Bombyx Mori is accusing her of being a spy. Blanc reports that she overheard a conversation about that. In addition, just as she left, a suspicious person bolted out of the Archives.

Neptune asks Blanc if this is true. Blanc remembers them dropping a book as they ran out. She is sure it is from the Archive. Neptune believes that is the real spy. She wants to tell Bombyx Mori so they can let Noire go. Blanc agrees that Noire can get her charges dropped if they figure out that she is not a spy. Neptune realizes that if there is a spy working against Bombyx Mori, that they should be friendly and help them. Blanc tells Neptune that the enemy of our enemy is not necessarily our friend. Neptune is saddened by this. She wonders what they can do then.

Blanc notes that they must have intel on the Archive. As a result, they must beat it out of them if they have to. Blanc notes that she last saw the spy running towards Lowee City so they should start there. Neptune remembers that is the first place they visited so with that the two rush over to Lowee.

Search for a suspicious person in Lowee
Neptune and Blanc return to Lowee and start looking around for suspicious people. Neptune picks out a person and asks Blanc if that is them. Blanc admits she did not get a good look at them but no that person does not look like them. Blanc does not see anyone that looks like the person she saw in the Archive. Neptune suggests that they may not even be in the city. Neptune feels this is hopeless.

Neptune thinks they should forget about the person and just rush in to save Noire. Blanc believes that is their best option now. As Neptune and Blanc begin to head out, Neptune spots a suspicious person. They are trying to sneak around and avoid suspicion. Neptune alerts Blanc to his presence. She catches him and he freaks out saying he is not sneaky and does not know anything about the resistance.

Neptune thinks that is very suspicious for him to say that. Blanc tells Neptune that it is not him. Neptune cannot believe that and asks Blanc how she knows this. Blanc tells Neptune that the person she saw leaving the Archive was not a man but a woman. Neptune wishes Blanc told her that earlier. Blanc still thinks there is not trouble hearing what he has to say about the Resistance.

The suspicious person gets defensive and claims he knows nothing of the Resistance. He is just a normal law-abiding citizen. Blanc reminds the suspicious person that they are not part of Bombyx Mori. With that, he admits that he is a member of the Resistance. He has been monitoring Bombyx Mori. Neptune thinks getting that info was easy. Blanc asks the suspicious person what he would have done if she just lied to him. The suspicious person realizes his mistake. Blanc assures him that they are not Bombyx Mori so he is safe.

Blanc tells him that they want information of Bombyx Mori. Neptune adds that their friend was accused of being one of their spies and is taken away. The suspicious Resistance member thinks that is terrible. He tells the girls that he does have information but if they want it, they need to help him. If they scratch his back, he'll scratch theirs. Neptune thinks that is more work but it must be done.

The Resistance member thanks the two for agreeing to help him. He tells them that Bombyx Mori's Lowee base is at the amusement park. That is probably where their friend is at. Neptune thinks an amusement park sounds fun. Blanc tells Neptune this anything but fun. The Resistance member tells the two that is all he knows. Now what he needs is Mysterious Grass. There is five of them. Once they have it, they should see him.

Gather 5 Mysterious Grass
When Neptune and Blanc return with the Mysterious Grass, he admits he did not think they would come back. He knows it isn't much but asks the to take this. He gives them 5 Omni Berries and 800 experience points.

Head to FC Land
Neptune and Blanc head to the amusement park, FC Land. At the entrance, they see more Bombyx Mori guards. Neptune figured they would run into them. She asks Blanc what they should do. Blanc tells Neptune to leave it to her as she has done this before. Neptune does not think they will fall for it again, as they aren't that stupid.

Blanc walks up to the guards and tells asks them if they saw that suspicious person over there. She thinks they are up to something. The guards eagerly set off to investigate the suspicious person and leave their guard positions. Neptune can't believe the copypasta worked. Neptune thinks the guards should look for a new job.

Inside the amusement park, Neptune is super excited to be in as they have so many fun things. She wonders what they should play with. Blanc tells her later as they are here for Noire. Neptune agrees and notes that she definitely did not forget about Noire. Blanc shakes her head and urges Neptune that they should go.

As they investigate, Neptune calls out to Noire. Blanc looks around and wonders where they keep their prisoners. Neptune thinks they should ask an employee. Blanc thinks about it and believes Neptune is right, and the two decide to find someone. An intruder alarm is set off. It states that there are two unidentified person in the park. It calls for guards to intercept them and tells employees to standby for their location.

Blanc damns their situation as Bombyx Mori has found them. Neptune wonders how this possible and what to do. Blanc tells Neptune they need to hide. Unfortunately guards surround the two. They tell the two to halt and give up as they are surrounded. The guards believe they have finally caught the Resistance scum.

Neptune tries to tell them that they are not part of the Resistance. Blanc tells Neptune there is no use in telling them that and draws her hammer. Neptune draws her sword. Neptune is upset as this is true and she never gets to correct people. A commander arrives and can't stand the noise. She notes that beauty is heard in simplicity. The guards acknowledge her as Lady Paix.

Bombyx Mori's Three Musketeers

Neptune wonders who is that. She introduces herself as Paix St. Gliss. She is the number one, the lead Musketeer on a quest for the ultimate tone. Another commander starts laughing. She is happy to see more mice and thinks it is great the idiots are taking the bait. Paix is annoyed by this loud commander. The loud commander greets the "Resistance scum" and asks if they know of her, the Mad King. Blanc has no idea who she is.

The Mad King explains that she Bombyx Mori's number two. She snickers and asks if they want to play a game. She thinks they will love it, as it is... hellish. A different commander notes that Arty likes it when things get difficult. Mad King Arty tells Ester not to call her that or she will kill her. Ester is amused by that response. Neptune recognizes Ester from earlier. Ester realizes that Neptune is that newbie and happily greets her. Blanc asks Neptune if she knows her.

Neptune snickers and admits she sort of knows her. Ester agrees with Neptune that they are acquainted and introduces herself as Ester Zira, the third Musketeer. Ester asks Neptune if she lied to her. Neptune tells her it is not like that. Neptune then realizes if these are the Three Musketeers then they are Bombyx Mori elite. Paix tells Neptune she is correct. Paix notes that they place is overrun by ugly sounds and she must hurry and tune it.

Ester tells Blanc and Neptune they are under arrest! Mad King Arty laughs and tells the mice to give up. Blanc thinks they are not going to let them go. Neptune notes that usually Goddesses lose this first boos battle but she is going to win! She asks if they know why? It is because she is no Goddess, but a Hero and charges in. Neptune and Blanc lose the fight.

Mad King Arty tells them she is going to turn them to a pile of bones. Neptune is upset that they lost. Blanc screams out in pain. Neptune calls for a tactical retreat! The two run off. Neptune and Blanc are able to shake off their pursuers. Neptune notes that all this running is making her hungry which makes it hard to fight. Blanc admits she is worried about Noire, but she agrees that they must head back to town and figure out a new plan. Neptune is glad Blanc understands her. The two head back.

Head to the Lowee Guild

• Chrome, at the guild
• Neptune gets her fill
• We're ready to go to Leanbox

1/3

Neptune and Blanc enter the Lowee Guild to find Chrome. Chrome is eating a meal. Neptune happily asks if Chrome is having a lunch break. Blanc greets Chrome. Chrome is surprised to see the two and asks them what is going on. Neptune wants to eat too and asks Chrome if she can have a bite. It looks so good! Neptune begs Chrome stating that she will pass out from hunger.

Chrome understands and assures Neptune she will get her something. Blanc thinks Neptune is embarrassing. Neptune cheers and asks for a large Hero Combo and a side of pudding. Chrome reiterates that she does not know what is going on. She notices that Noire is missing. Blanc explains what has happened and that they are still figuring out their next moves.

Neptune agrees that this is a total mess and that she is so worried that she can barely eat as she gorges herself. Chrome observes that Neptune is just eating fine. Blanc asks if there is anything they can do. Chrome suggests that they head to Leanbox. Blanc does not understand why the place is suggested. Neptune does not know the place. Blanc explains that it is a nation across the sea.

Chrome adds that it is the base of the Resistance and probably their last hope. Neptune understands but Blanc notes that it will take forever to get there. Chrome assures Blanc and Neptune that she will keep an eye on Noire. If she is correct about Bombyx Mori, she will be safe... for now. Neptune is happy that they now have a plan. She wants one more pudding though, before she goes. However, she remembers that Noire is waiting so she decides to hold off the pudding for now. Blanc agrees.

Head to Leanbox from Lowee Harbor
Neptune and Blanc arrive in Leanbox. Neptune takes a look around her then decides that they need to ask around to figure out where the Resistance is. A girl greets them and welcomes them to the Leanbox Harbor. Neptune attempts to converse with the girl but she only repeats her greetings.

Neptune guesses she won't get anything out of this NPC. A man overhearing their conversation wonders if Resistance is some sort of defense magic. Neptune hopes that the man would know more than that. A young man overhears the conversation and suggests that instead of fighting Bombyx Mori, he would treat the ladies to dinner.

Neptune quickly shuts the young man down. Neptune guesses that she is too attractive. Neptune wonders why nobody knows anything about the Resistance. The young man understands that they are looking for the Resistance Base. He thinks and then confirms that he knows nothing of it. Neptune guesses they are on their own and that they should start looking.

Search for the Resistance Base
The pair search for the Resistance base and enter Yasnaya Forest. During which, Neptune finds someone lying on the road. Blanc confirms that Neptune is right. The lady glances at them. Neptune wonders if she is looking at them causing the lady to turn away. Neptune guesses it was just her imagination. The lady glances at them again.

Neptune is about to ignore this spooky person when Histoire starts glowing. Neptune quickly decides this lady must be an ally. Neptune calls out to the lady. The lady stays quiet and Neptune thinks it is no use. The lady was just a corpse. The lady gets offended and claims that she is most certainly alive. Blanc is surprised and asks if she is okay. Blanc walks up and heals her. As the lady stands up, Blanc is in awe of her chest.

The lady apologizes for startling them and explains that she has collapsed by the side of the road. She asks them to escort her to the inn as she would rather not travel alone. Neptune thinks that is fine. Blanc is still in awe of her chest. The lady catches Blanc's stares and asks if everything is okay. Does she have something on her chest? Blanc tries to explain that she wasn't staring but just clarifies that it was nothing. If that is the case, the lady smiles and introduces herself as Vert. She thinks it is a pleasure to meet them. Neptune and Blanc introduces themselves to Vert.

Head to Leanbox's inn
In Leanbox City, Vert points out the inn is just up ahead. She suggests that they rest up a bit as she already has a room. Vert offers them tea and snacks as it is the least they can do for their help so far. Neptune is happy with that. Neptune and Blanc explain their situation. Vert points out that it is strange that they lost their memories as she has as well. Vert explains that she was found unconscious outside the city and rescued by someone in the inn. Vert admits she does not have any luck regaining her memories though.

Blanc thinks that must have been hard as she was able to team up with Noire at least but Vert was all alone. Neptune understands and thinks they all just want their memories back. Vert points out that she does not need her memories back right now as she has games to occupy her time. Due to her lack of memories, she can enjoy games she has already played. Neptune is shocked by what she is hearing but says she understands. Neptune thinks Vert is a little weird and asks Blanc if she thinks the same.

Blanc asks if Neptune even needs to asks such a question. Neptune then asks Vert if she knows the whereabouts of the Resistance Base. Neptune explains that the two of them have asked around but no one seems to have any idea. Vert wants to say something but holds back. Neptune adds that Histoire was glowing so Vert has to be their last ally and hope. Vert does not know about Histoire. Blanc explains that it is the book Neptune was holding. Neptune tells Vert that Histoire says that she is their ally so they should team up.

Vert is afraid she cannot join them. There is something she must do. She apologizes. Neptune is saddened by this. Vert will however guide them to the Resistance Base. That is all she can do. Neptune pouts and Blanc is satisfied with this. She wants to get moving. Vert agrees and is ready to go. Neptune says that she is hero, people should join her party because she is so cool! Perhaps she has to give them the pudding in her waist. Vert is confused as she does not see any pudding on her waist.

Blanc tells Vert not to pay any attention to Neptune and just show them the way.

Head to the Resistance Base
In Yasnaya Forest, close to the Resistance Base, Vert tells Blanc and Neptune that almost all of Leanbox's citizens are anti-Bombyx Mori. Neptune thinks that is cool and she wants to be anti-something as that will give her an edge. Blanc suggests Neptune should be anti-Neptune. Neptune wonders why she would anti-herself, and asks Blanc if she is crazy. Vert suggests being anti-pudding to improve her health. Neptune declares she will never abandon pudding. That would be hearsay... heresy.

Vert chuckles and explains that as a result of being anti-Bombyx Mori, the citizens support and protect the Resistance. They do so by keeping its location a secret from travelers such as Neptune and Blanc. Neptune can't believe this and wonders if she does not look like a Hero enough. Vert tells them not to take it personally. She has found the two of them worthy and will show them the way. Neptune asks if Vert is part of the Resistance.

Vert explains that all she does is visit the base to play. Neptune and Blanc do not have good ideas with what that means. Vert clarifies that the Resistance develops new games all the time and she trades them food for a sneak peak at those games. Neptune is surprised by the fact new games are made. Vert says they have been working on something big, something no one has seen before. That is of course, just what Vert has heard.

The party make it to the Resistance Base. Vert tells them to wait as she talks to the Resistance members. Neptune is happy to leave it to her. Blanc thanks Vert. Vert walks up to a Resistance member and explains Neptune and Blanc's situation and asks them if they can help. The member explains that she is thankful for all that Vert does but they do not allow outsiders and there are no exceptions to that rule.

Vert says that she can vouch for them and asks her to reconsider as they can trust Neptune and Blanc. The member understands but this is something she is not responsible for. Neptune thinks Vert is having trouble convincing the Resistance members. Blanc thinks that makes sense as security must be pretty strict around here. Vert suggests that they battle over this with a game of Petris.

The member stands her ground saying she will not be falling for that again. Neptune wonders what kind of game Petris is. Blanc explains that they make rows out of pets which disappear and they get points for that. Neptune lies saying that it is cool when she does not think so. Blanc remarks that she never thought a song with auto-tuned meowing could be so addictive.

A lady walks up to see some strangers at the base. Neptune turns around and thinks she has seen this lady before. Artisan remembers Neptune as that newbie from Lastation. The resistance member then worries that the two of them are with Bombyx Mori. Neptune now completely remembers the lady from before. Blanc asks Neptune what is going on. Neptune begins to explain herself and assures the lady that she has it wrong.

Vert asks Artisan what is the meaning of this. Artisan remarks that Bombyx Mori is smarter than she thought if they could find their base. She draws her brush and notes while they may have found their way in. They won't find their way out. Artisan tells them they will regret this, the Resistance will be threatened by those Bombyx Morons. Neptune continues to explain that she has it all wrong. Artisan tells the party to prepare themselves.

Vert is able to stop the fight and tries to explain to Artisan what is going on. Artisan asks Vert if they are with her. Vert confirms this and explains that Bombyx Mori has captured their friend and they are here to ask for help. Neptune further adds that Noire was captured when they were looking for something in the Archive. Blanc adds that she was mistaken for a spy that snuck in at the same time they did. Artisan understands and agrees to talk about this inside.

Inside the base, Artisan collects what she has heard and notes that it worries her. Neptune wonders why. Artisan explains that she was the spy they were looking for as she snuck in the same they did. Neptune can't believe this. Artisan explains that she feels partially responsible for Noire's capture. Blanc asks if she is sure because she saw a spy that looked nothing like her.

Artisan guesses she saw her handiwork and says with a stroke of her brush... she transforms into her Bombyx Mori disguise. Artisan then swipes her brush again and turns back. Neptune is impressed with what she is seeing. Artisan notes that it is her fault that their friend was taken. She will help the two of them. However, Artisan notes that she is responsible for the base as well. Neptune is glad that Artisan will help them. Neptune invites Vert to help out as well.

Vert wants to help but she is busy. Blanc notes that the amusement park is selling limited edition of new games tomorrow. Vert asks if this is true. Neptune thinks that is cool and asks Blanc how she knows this. Blanc reminds Neptune it was on the flyer. Vert gulps and notes that she wants to thank them for helping her so she has decided to join them. Neptune is glad that she now has the last party member. Neptune declares that this party will now head to Lowee. Blanc agrees. Vert also agrees. Artisan also agrees but she notes that she can't help in battle as her brush has been acting up. Neptune wants these tropes to stop as she has heard that one too many times.

Head to FC Land (2)
The party makes it to Twin Mountains on their way to FC Land when they come before a man who is concerned with something. Neptune asks the man what is wrong. He explains that his friend, an engineer was taken. He asks them to rescue her. The engineer was working at the park and they were supposed to make a game together. The fact that it was an engineer catches Vert and Artisan's interest. Neptune wonders what she should do.

Neptune decides to help the man as she is a hero after all. Blanc tells the man she is no hero but since he needs the help, she will give it. Artisan agrees. The man thanks them and explains his friend was taken to the Harbor. Neptune understands and the party decides to check it out.

Head to Lowee Harbor
In the harbor, they see Bombyx Mori soldiers with a lady. Neptune wonders if that lady is the man's friend. The man takes a look and says that she is. The lady is being loaded onto a boat so he calls out to her. Neptune declares that the Hero has appeared. She demands they release that citizen. A Bombyx Mori captain tells his soldiers to get them. Neptune tells them to behold the mighty Hero's sword.

After defeating Bombyx Mori, Neptune declares it was an easy victory. The engineer thanks them for saving her. The man is relieved that his friend was saved. Vert is sorry that the engineer had to go through that. The engineer explains that Bombyx Mori tried to take her because she wouldn't stop developing games. Artisan confirms her suspicions about Bombyx Mori.

Blanc is confused, Bombyx Mori takes games as payment yet they would take someone away for developing new games. Vert suggests that they may have had a falling out. Neptune thinks it would be simple if it were that simple. For now, Blanc suggests that they head to FC Land first and worry about this later. The man thanks them for all their help. The engineer does not know what is going on but tells them to take care of themselves.

Neptune assures the engineer that they will and is glad that she is safe as well. They say their goodbyes.

Head to FC Land (3)
Near FC Land, the party runs into Chrome. Neptune apologizes for making Chrome wait. Chrome is surprised to see Vert and guesses that they are now all here. Vert is confused and asks if she knows her. Chrome says that Vert might know her. Neptune asks Chrome to stop with the mysterious one-liners. Blanc asks about Noire. Chrome says that she is safe but they don't have much time.

Artisan seems to recognize Chrome. Chrome understands that seeing Artisan that Neptune was able to enlist the help of the Resistance. Neptune wonders if the two of them know each other. Artisan chuckles and says that Neptune can see that. While Neptune would love details, she wants to focus on saving Noire. Vert agrees. Chrome explains that they are holding Noire in Yanderella Castle. Blanc says they need to save her and urges the party to go. Neptune likes it when Blanc is all fired up. Neptune leads the way. Chrome joins the party.

Charge into Yanderella Castle
Inside Yanderella Castle, Neptune can't believe something so pretty outside can be so creepy on the inside. Artisan notes that based on intel, Noire is held in an underground cell. Blanc tells Noire to hold on a little more.

Search for Noire in the basement of Yanderella Castle
Eventually the party was able to find Noire. Noire is surprised that Neptune actually came for her. Blanc says she is here too. Noire thanks Blanc. Noire notes that the door is locked. Artisan tells her to leave it to her and unlocks the door. Noire is finally freed. She asks Chrome who these two new faces are. Vert walks up and is introduces herself as Vert. Neptune explains that Vert is the last piece of the puzzle according to Histoire and the other person is...

Artisan notes that Noire has been through a lot. Neptune continues that she is with the Resistance and the spy they were accusing Noire of being. Noire then says that means this would be her fault. Artisan apologizes for that. Noire is about to say her mind but holds back. First they need to get out of here. Neptune agrees. Seeing how dirty Neptune's face is, Noire is about get her handkerchief but she notices she already used it. Neptune is confused. Noire remembers she used it as a bandage for that kitty.

Vert thinks they must bring that injured kitty with them. Noire does not know where the cat is. As soon as she took her eyes of the kitty, it was gone. Chrome notes that they don't have time for this and must go.

Escape Yanderella Castle
The party are almost out of Yanderella Castle and Neptune can see the exit. Someone tells them not so fast. Chrome recognizes this voice. She tells them they cannot just break out of her castle on her watch. Chrome notes that it really is Filyn. Noire warns everyone that this is the leader of Bombyx Mori. Filyn confirms Noire's warning.

Neptune can't believe that it is the loli... Filyn. Neptune can't believe she let that slip but looking at Filyn, there is no other way to describe her. Filyn asks if Neptune just called her a loli. Neptune quickly explains that she was just coughing, and notes that she is just Filyn. Blanc notes that she is such a little girl. Vert thinks she is adorable. Filyn can't believe what she is hearing.

Chrome warns the party that there is a reason why she is the leader of Bombyx Mori. They cannot fight her right now. Filyn is glad that Chrome is always the voice of reason. Filyn demands that they surrthender... surrender quickly. Neptune wonders if Filyn just bit her tongue. Noire, Blanc, Vert, Artisan and Chrome confirms that she did bite her tongue.

Filyn tells them she did not bite tongue. Filyn tells them not to make fun of her and she won't forgive them. She is going to blow them all up. Neptune is surprised. Chrome tells the party to leave this to her. Blanc can't believe Chrome is going to handle this. Chrome tells the party to make a run for this. She will handle this alone. The party is in shock. Even Filyn can't believe this.

Filyn wonders if she will have a date with Chrome. Filyn wants to go on a Ferris Wheel first. Chrome refuses to go on any rides with her. Filyn then suggests they go on one of those spinning cups first then. She is cool with that and wants to go. Chrome tells her she is not going. Filyn is shocked by her refusal. Filyn thinks Chrome wants to go the funhouse then.

Vert believes no battle will be happening so they should just leave. Blanc and Noire agree. Besides, Noire does have something amazing that she saw when she was brought here that she wants to tell the party about. Noire also wants to properly get acquainted with Vert. Vert agrees. Neptune remarks that Filyn seems to be obsessed with Chrome. Neptune agrees with running away while Filyn is distracted. Artisan agrees.

Back in Lowee, Artisan thinks they should be safe now. Artisan wants to know the amazing thing Noire saw earlier. Noire says it was an image projected to an area that seemed three dimensional. Noire remembers it was so lifelike and she could hardly tell that it wasn't real. Noire concludes that it was very pretty. Artisan thinks that was a super pretty 3D movie.

Noire has never heard of the term "3D". Noire notes that Bombyx Mori was trying to hide that image or the device that displays it. Noire asks if they saw the scaffolding and covers. She notes that those were not there before. Blanc notes that they only heard that they bought the park and began repairs. She guesses all they worked on was the castle. Neptune wonders if that means they bought it only to hide these three-dimensional pictures. Artisan thinks it is likely they plan on destroying them.

Neptune wonders why they would do that. Vert is also confused as to why they would destroy such a beautiful image. Noire admits she does not know why but what she does know is that when she first saw it, it did not feel new. For some reason, Noire seems to know about it already. Neptune remembers about that engineer they saved earlier. She was working on the park. Vert confirms that this is true. They were making some new game and Bombyx Mori wanted them to stop. Artisan thinks they were making a new kind of game, not a 2D one but one with three dimensional imaging.

Neptune is impressed as she can't even imagine what it would look like. She thinks it is unfair that Noire is the only one who can see it and she wants to see it as well. Noire notes that there isn't much she can do about that. Blanc notes that this 3D game has her curious. Vert thinks this sounds fun. Artisan agrees with Vert and she adds that it might be possible for them to make one. This surprises the party. Artisan invites them to Resistance HQ. She wants to show them something. Noire is okay with that. Vert says she was planning on heading that way anyways. Neptune thinks they have unlocked a super cool part of the story.

Neptune suggests that they use a Return Spell to zoom in on Resistance HQ. Noire tells Neptune that does not exist. Neptune is sad that does not exist. Neptune wonders if anyone has any Chimaera Wings around. Noire reminds Neptune that does not exist. Vert thinks the two of them must have some lovely conversations. Noire notes that it is not like... Noire brushes that aside and introduces herself to Vert. Vert, likewise introduces herself to Noire.

Noire asks if Vert also lacks her memories. Vert confirms this but thanks to that, she can enjoy games new and fresh again. Noire can't believe what she is hearing from Vert. Blanc blankly stares away. Neptune notices that Blanc has been very quiet. She is thinking about Leanbox. Neptune notes that they are headed to Leanbox. Blanc is also thinking of Lowee. Noire notes they are currently in Lowee and wonders about it.

Blanc notes there is an event happening Lowee tomorrow. Neptune asks what kind of event it is. Blanc notes that it is a special comic market, a Lowee tradition that happens 3 times a year. Blanc wants to attend this event. Neptune notes that she can hear the passion from Blanc's quiet voice. Blanc asks the party what they think of this. Artisan has no issue with it. Vert also has no objections. Neptune is in on this as well. Noire is okay as long as they keep an eye of Bombyx Mori. Blanc thinks it is settled then. Neptune suggests that they find an inn and get some rest for the night.

Blanc doubts she will be able to sleep. She has a lot of research to do and notes that the battle has just begun. Neptune can't believe how serious Blanc is about this. Artisan notes that she has to meet with some Resistance members so they should meet up at the inn tomorrow.

At the inn, Blanc looks at the pamphlet to see what it is about. She declares that the battle has begun. Blanc is impressed with what is available. She has underestimated them as all of them are very attractive. Blanc wonders what she can do, she can focus on the areas she cannot miss out on but that would be limiting her intake. If she only hits the newbie booths, she will miss the major releases. Blanc thinks this is difficult.

File:SNRPG-Table for Blancs.jpg

How do we win

Blanc thinks she has no choice, she has to do it. She needs to have a meeting in the mind. Blanc A thinks they should just hit the major booths. Blanc B thinks that is too mainstream, they need to be updated on the new, the now. Blanc A thinks that is stupid as she will complain if she misses out on the major releases. Blanc B thinks it is not stupid, it is investing in the future. However Blanc B acknowledges that in the newbie circles that there is a lot of trash and it is a gamble.

Blanc C notes that if they focused on the majors, that is all they have time for. That means there is only 1 solution. Blanc A and B wonder what it is. She suggests the middle of the road. This surprises Blanc A and B. They can get decent quality with mid-sized circles and asks why something so simple is hard to see. Blanc A admits that mid-sized circles is a viable option but... Blanc B believes it is too defensive and there is no fun in that. Blanc C reminds the two of them that this is war, it is important to not only win but not lose. The mid-sized focus is what they need.

Blanc A disagrees and they should obtain the golden volume that the major circles release. Blanc C reminds them about the newbies as buyers make sellers. Blanc D thinks all 3 of them are dumb and that they should spend all the time staring at cosplayers. All other Blancs disagree. Blanc D is upset. However, she suggests that clearly they are short on hands, so why don't they just borrow some. All other Blancs agree with this.

Back at the inn, Blanc guesses she never considered that option. Alright, Blanc snickers, she thinks she can count tomorrow as a win. Blanc can't stop herself from chuckling.

At the special comic market, the party arrives. Neptune notes that it isn't even noon yet the place is packed. She thinks the food stands look so good. Blanc suggests that everyone ignore food stands for drink stands. Noire wonders why. Blanc notes that they will work up a sweat walking around in the event. As a result, everyone will fight over cold drinks as time goes on. The last thing Blanc wants is to be stuck with lukewarm coffee.

Neptune and Noire guesses they understand. Vert notes that the event goes on late into the evening so why don't they will until then to visit. Blanc tells Vert there is no freaking way that will happen. Vert is taken aback but how angry Blanc can get. Blanc explains that if they did that then they won't get their hands on anything good. Blanc reminds Vert that those limited edition games would sell out way before then. Vert gets fired up hearing that.

Seeing how tense this is, Noire suggests that all they do is take a stroll. Neptune agrees. Blanc tells the two of them there is no time for that and this event is a battlefield. They need to follow her lead. Blanc gives out out maps to the party. Neptune and Noire wonder what this is. Blanc explains that those are maps and she circled all the booths they need to visit. Once they visit it, they need to ask for their latest book. Neptune realizes that all Blanc did is force the work upon them. Blanc asks if they will do it. Neptune realizes she can't refuse.

Blanc tells Vert to hurry to those company booths as the lines are getting longer as they speak. Vert says she will be going then. Vert says she will see them later. Blanc says she will be going to begin operations.

After the event, Neptune tiredly announces that they are back. Noire complains that she is so tired. Vert thanks them for their good work. Blanc asks if they were able to get everything in that list. Neptune says they did and it is all good. Vert asks if it is just her but it looks like Neptune has wilted. Neptune tells Vert all she needs is pudding and that will perk up right up. Noire asks how it went for them. Blanc declares a complete victory. Vert reports that she purchased all the games she wanted.

Noire thinks that is good news. She asks if they can rest somewhere. All Neptune wants to do is eat pudding and nap at the inn. Blanc tells them that sounds good and they have earned it. She thanks Neptune, Noire and Vert.

Bombyx Mori arrives and declares it is inspection time. They will be inspecting everything on display. He warns that anything that doesn't follow Bombyx Mori's guidelines will confiscated. Blanc is unhappy to hear them. To make matters worse, Artura arrives. Neptune is unhappy with seeing the Second Musketeer, the Mad King. Noire wonders what she is doing here. Vert has no idea why she is here but her instincts tell her they must hide.

Artura's mood sours, as she is sure she smelled Neptune around here. Since she cannot find her, she is unhappy. Artura begins looking for her. Neptune cannot believe that Artura is looking for her specifically. The Bombyx Mori inspector meekly says that they cannot find her but they still have to do their inspections. Artura tells the inspector to do whatever he wants. Meanwhile, Artura says she will hunt down that mouse to give her some TLC. Neptune is scared by Artura's declaration. Noire thinks Artura likes Neptune.

Artura notes that distance only makes the heart grow fonder. She laughs as she will get her soon enough. She asks the inspector if he agrees. The inspector quickly agrees with Artura. Neptune wants to get out of here while they have the chance. Artura breaks out into a maniacal laugh. The party leaves and run into Artisan.

Artisan welcomes them back and asks them how was the event. Neptune asks why Artisan has to bring it up. Blanc says she will never forgive them. Artisan asks what happened and if they ran into trouble. Vert wonders how she should explain this. Noire explains that there was a scary lady hellbent on finding Neptune. Artisan is surprised. Neptune wonders why the crazy lady is after her. Blanc says that does not matter compared to the inspection. Neptune asks Blanc what she means by that does not matter. Neptune wonders if Blanc has no heart.

Artisan wonders what Blanc means by inspection. Blanc notes that if they don't defeat Bombyx Mori, they will take all the spoils of war. Vert admits she is worried about her games. Artisan laughs and thinks there is something they can agree on. She suggests they rest for today and tomorrow they head for Leanbox. Noire that sounds good to her as she is tired. Vert thinks rest is an adequate way to pass the time as she does not have her console. Blanc declares she will unwind with a good book. Noire warns her not to stay up too late. Neptune thinks she won't be able to get any sleep.

Head to Leanbox from Lowee Harbor (2)
At Lowee Harbor, Blanc boards the ship and reads a novel. After she finishes, she reads another novel. Neptune suddenly takes away Blanc's book. Blanc snaps and asks Neptune if she has a death wish. Neptune cries in fear. Blanc calms down a little and asks Neptune what she wants. Neptune gives Blanc, Histoire's dictionary and explains that she wants her to take a look at it. Blanc wonders why Neptune did not tell her something so important earlier. Neptune guesses she was too busy saving Noire earlier and forgot to tell her.

Neptune notes that she found another book for Blanc. Everyone comes in to take a look at the book. Noire wonders what is that. Blanc reads the title "The Book of Restoration" and it seems to be a novel. Neptune notes that it wasn't interesting to her but she thought Blanc might like it. Blanc thanks Neptune. Vert tells Blanc that she knows she is excited but she asks her to wait before starting the second book.

Blanc knows but she says a little peek won't hurt. Noire tells her not to. Blanc sighs and says she will look at the dictionary first. Neptune hopes that they can figure out what Histoire is saying with this. Blanc is not sure about this but she tells Neptune to bring Histoire out. Neptune brings Histoire out. Blanc asks Neptune to ask her something. Noire suggests asking her something about their memories.

Noire asks Histoire why they lost their memories. Histoire replies in cryptic symbols and emoticons. Neptune says this is a job for the dictionary. Blanc notes that some of these symbols are not listed so she can't read it. Neptune is disappointed. Blanc notes that the tome was spread across 7 books so she assumes they need them all. However a few words are here though, hard...save...time...memories.

Vert notes that while helpful she wishes they knew exactly what she was saying. Neptune understands and she says she will solve the puzzle. Neptune thinks Histoire said "It was hard, but to save ourselves from doing work, we erased our memories!". Histoire has an angry reply. Noire thinks Neptune completely missed the mark. Neptune responds with the fact that she is trying.

Noire thinks this is disappointing. She thought they would figure out something. Neptune notes that did find something, now they know they need to find the other dictionaries. Noire admits Neptune is correct.

At Leanbox, Artisan announces they are here. Vert then announces that she will be... Neptune understands and thanks Vert for helping them save Noire. Vert accepts Neptune's thanks and notes that she is relieved that Noire is safe. Neptune asks Vert if with that, does she want to join their party for real? Vert hesitates but apologizes to Neptune. Neptune sadly asks if that is no.

Neptune remembers that there was something important that Vert had to do. Vert confirms that is correct, as she must shut herself in and play through all her games. Neptune can't believe that was the important thing that Vert has to do. Vert clarifies that she has to provide supplies to the Resistance so of course, she must stay behind.

Blanc reminds Vert that she does that so she can play their games. Noire calls out to Neptune. Neptune asks Noire what's up. Noire notes that Bombyx Mori is after them so Vert will be in danger if she joined them. Vert is touched by Noire's concern. Neptune remembers that is true. Neptune tells Vert that the offer is always open for her to join their party. Neptune decides to leave it at that.

Vert asks if Neptune is really okay with her staying behind. Neptune says that she is. Vert is guesses with that, if she ever gets the desire to join Neptune, she will seek Neptune out to join the party. Artisan asks if Vert is going to head back to the Resistance base now. Vert confirms that she is.

Head to the Resistance Base
As the party returns to the Resistance base, a member of the Resistance happily welcomes the big kahuna's return. Artisan told the member she doesn't like being called that. Regardless she welcomes everyone inside. Neptune happily accepts and wonders where's the food. Noire and Blanc politely excuse themselves inside. Inside, Vert greets all the resistance members.

Artisan tells Neptune she has something to show her before their meal. She hands them something. Blanc notes that was in the Archives. Artisan confirms Blanc's observation and explains it was a magazine from the Archives. Noire says that if features 3D and VR games. Neptune notes they just heard of 3D games but she has no idea what VR is.

Blanc asks if she can take a look. Artisan allows her to. Blanc reads "A G***tsu special report1 A new game using brand-new technology! Don't Worry!" Blanc has no idea why the magazine tells people not to worry. Neptune has a feeling that this isn't new. Noire agrees with Neptune's hunch. Neptune adds that she feels she has seen these games before. Blanc and Vert agrees.

Noire notes that she felt the same way when she saw those 3D images at the castle. Artisan explains that the Resistance got wind of these games when they were investigating Bombyx Mori. For some reason, their organization believes these games don't exist. Based on what they have gathered, 3D and VR games once existed in this world. However, the games and the console that run them have been lost.

Vert ponders about what Artisan says. Artisan explains that the Resistance's goal is to get those games and consoles back to the people. Neptune wonders if that is what the Resistance is about. Artisan confirms this. Neptune is surprised that the Resistance was doing proper work. Artisan snickers and wonders what Neptune thinks Artisan and the Resistance were up to.

Seeing Artisan's mood change, Neptune realizes her mistake. Cornered, Neptune shyly admits she thought the Resistance just played a lot of games like Vert does. Vert reminds Neptune that she was not a member of the Resistance. Artisan tells Neptune that their work is serious. 3D and VR games exist and Bombyx Mori is hiding it.

Blanc ponders on why. Artisan declares that they need new games for the sake of the world, for the sake of Gamindustri. Otherwise, Gamindustri's growth will halt and the tax regulations will get ridiculous. Neptune wonders what she means by ridiculous. Artisan explains that the demands will be too much for the people and the evaluations will be unfair.

Neptune remembers that in Lastation, they're already being forced to make the same kinds of games. She retells the story of the old couple who got low ratings then had their store trashed with their only consolation that they did not get punished. Artisan laments that Bombyx Mori rejects new ideas and that any creative will lose motivation working like that. Blanc agrees with Artisan's sentiment. Vert was surprised that people in Lastation get punished. Artisan confirms that this is true.

Artisan notes that Vert spent a lot of time gaming so she probably did not hear too much about it. Vert can't believe this and is saddened by such injustice. Artisan notes that while Leanbox is under the control of Bombyx Mori, they know that the citizens of Leanbox do not support them and that the Resistance base is here. Despite how much pressure they put on other nations, they aren't strict in Leanbox.

Noire notes that this attitude is strategic, if they push Leanbox too hard, they will birth a rebellion. Artisan agrees with Noire observation and concludes for those reasons are Leanbox's tax regulations and overall treatment of citizens are much better. However, Artisan is also aware that Bombyx Mori is plotting against the Resistance and keeping tabs on them.

Neptune thinks that is scary and doesn't want to know about that. Vert thinks that is horrible and for them to deny the development of new games. Artisan thinks this is unforgivable and asks Vert if she feels the same way. Vert wholeheartedly agrees.

• I wish I could read that magazine
• Planeptune...
• But, I want a rest

1/3

After all that, the party have a meal. Neptune praises the pudding. Blanc quietly continues to read her book. Neptune sees that Blanc is still reading the Book of Restoration and asks how is it? Blanc thinks it's really fun. Neptune is surprised books can be fun. Blanc notes that she would have perferred reading the magazine but Vert took it. Vert continues to read the magazine. Noire notes that Artisan's story must have been a shock to Vert since she didn't know anything.

Vert asks for everyone's attention. Neptune wonder what is up. Vert tells everyone to look at this page. It shows a purple console which was manufactured in Planeptune. She thinks that some information is held in Planeptune and that they should investigate. Neptune is upset that she has to travel again and thinks this is such a pain. Suddenly Histoire starts glowing as brightly as possible. She angrily says something in emoticons.

Neptune tries to tell Histoire she can't read that. Vert observes that Histoire is very upset. Neptune agrees that they will be going to Planeptune. Histoire gets super excited. Neptune finishes her pudding so she is ready to go. Vert declares that if Bombyx Mori is oppressing innovation in gaming, she will obliterate them. Blanc reads until something surprises her.

Noticing Blanc is not paying attention, Neptune asks Blanc if she is listening to her and explains that they are going to Planeptune. Noire tells Neptune to have fun. Neptune starts to realize something is wrong. Noire explains to Neptune that her priority is her memories not lost games. Since there is probably nothing in Planeptune, she thinks it is best that they split up.

Neptune gets angry at that. Noire wonders what's wrong. Neptune asks Histoire how Noire can get her memories back. Histoire explains in unintelligible emoticons. Neptune can't read that. Regardless, Neptune tells Noire that Histoire knows something and that Histoire's tome can be in Planeptune. Noire should come with them to find it. Noire realizes that Neptune is not going to let her leave the party.

Blanc then voices her complaints. They just saved Noire and she does not feel up for another adventure. Neptune can't believe Blanc is like this too, but in her case, Neptune struggles to find something to convince her. That being said, Neptune would like Blanc to return the Book of Restoration to her. Blanc notes that she has not finished reading it yet. Since that is the case, Blanc agrees to travel with Neptune.

With that Neptune is ready to head to Planeptune. However, Neptune then remembers Vert. She wonders if Vert is coming with them. Vert is happy to come along with Neptune. Neptune is worried she is taking Vert away from her life. Vert gulps and declares that she will be the one to ask this. Vert asks Neptune if she can join her party. Neptune's eyes sparkle and declares that Vert has joined the party.

Neptune declares that the Hero Party is complete! Neptune thinks that having a party of four people feels great! Artisan is happy for Neptune. She then has a proposal for Neptune. Neptune wonders what is up. Artisan notes that both her party and Artisan's Resistance is against Bombyx Mori so why don't they team up. Neptune wonders if Artisan means... Artisan formerly requests to form an alliance with Neptune's party of Heroes.

Noire is not sure about this Hero title, however she was hoping the Resistance would help them. Blanc says that she is grateful for the Resistance's help. Neptune accepts Artisan's request. Artisan is glad she accepted but notes that this wasn't just a request to be buddies though. She requests that Neptune gets intel on Bombyx Mori and the Resistance will assist them whenever they run into trouble. Artisan asks Neptune how it sounds to her, she will help take down Bombyx Mori and save the world.

Neptune thinks that is perfect and that they'll save the world in no time. Vert laughs and thinks Neptune says it like it'll be so easy. Noire observes that Neptun really is into this Hero thing, and hopes they'll be okay. Artisan thinks this is promising. Neptune declares they are now offwards to Planeptune. Blanc tells Neptune the word is "onwards". Neptune tells Blanc this was on purpose. Noire really hopes they will be okay.

Head to Planeptune from Leanbox Harbor

Sleepwalking Cosplayer
The party strolls across Lastation City. Noire sighs as they can't find clues about their memories. Neptune assures Noire that it is okay and they should take it easy. Noire tells Neptune they can't be so carefree. Neptune feels Noire is irritable today. Blanc whispers to Neptune that she needs help and promises to fill her in on the details later.

Neptune is unsure by what Blanc means but she agrees. Noire notices Blanc and Neptune falling behind and tells them to walk faster as they need to find a place to stay by tonight.

The party finds a place in the inn and Noire quickly falls asleep. Now that she is asleep, Neptune asks Blanc what she wants. Blanc explains that there is a trend of Noire being stressed out then after sleeping she is perfectly fine. Neptune thinks Noire just gets cranky when she is tired. Blanc does not think so and suspects Noire goes somewhere on nights like that. Neptune wonders where Noire could go. Blanc does not know but she wants Neptune to follow her.

Later that night, Noire gets up and leaves her room surprising Neptune and Blanc. Blanc believes her theory is right about Noire. She urges Neptune to follow her as they follow Noire. Neptune happily follows along. They find Noire sitting down on the main lobby of the inn. Neptune asks if she is okay. As Noire gets up, Blanc hears her snoring. She continues to leave the inn.

• SNRPG-Noire Idol 2.jpg
  What is Noire doing??!
• SNRPG-Noire Idol.jpg
  Cosplay is the best♪

1/2

Neptune cannot believe that Noire is actually sleepwalking. Blanc observes that this must be the case and wonders if Noire is dreaming. The two follow Noire outside. Neptune is shocked by what Noire is doing. Blanc thinks Noire is cosplaying but she did not know Noire was into that. Noire happily mixes hums into her snoring. Neptune wonders if she is into this hobby in her dream. Blanc does not know but she knows that this is calming her down at night.

Noire does a twirl and a pose. Neptune comments on how surreal it is to see this. Noire dreams about cosplaying as an idol. Blanc thinks that if it just cosplay, it is fine. Neptune wonders what they should do. Blanc wants to watach her until she gets back to bed as she does not want her to trip and hurt herself. Neptune does not want to as she is sleepy too.

Noire happily sleep-cosplays for a while before returning to bed. Noire wakes up in the morning fully refreshed and exchanges good mornings with her party members. Neptune complains that she is sleepy. Noire tells Neptune that is no good as she should get better rest. Noire thinks she slept well and feels great. She felt like she a good dream. Blanc thinks that is good.

Vert's Acquaintance
The party walks around in Leanbox. Neptune wonders what they should do now? Vert begins fidgeting. She asks for the party's attention. Neptune asks Vert what's wrong. Vert tells them there is a Resistance soldier of whom she is acquainted with. She asks for permission to greet her. Noire is okay with this but since they are from the Resistance, she suggests that they go together. Vert tells them it is alright, and they should go ahead to the inn.

Vert tells them she will meet them later and says her farewells. Blanc comments on how just like that, Vert left. Noire wonders what that was all about, but thinks they should just head to the inn. Neptune agrees, as this is just a greeting so this will be quick.

3 days later, in the inn, Neptune complains that Vert is not back yet. Noire wonders what has happened. Blanc wonders if they should look for her. After asking around, they get info that a busty lady in green headed to a house 3 days ago. Neptune sees the house and guesses this is it. Noire wonders if she is here. Noire walks up and calls in to the house. Blanc notes there is no response and observes the door is unlocked.

Vert is an addict.

The three open the door to find a lightly yet messily dressed Vert with bags on her eyes playing games with food and drinks lying around. Vert notes she is sleepy but a little more and she can clear the dungeon. Vert realizes that she is getting hungry and looks around for snacks but she is all out. She thinks the Resistance is useless. Returning to her game, Vert believes she should level her skills in the previous area but then...

Vert thinks about what decision she should make. Neptune wonders if this really is Vert. Noire thinks this is Vert but her hair is messy and she has bags under her eyes. Blanc thinks the life was sucked out of her face. Neptune thinks her clothes could also use a wash. Blanc says there is no mistaking it, Vert is a... Neptune and Noire wonder what Blanc is going to say.

Blanc thinks Vert is an addict. She is addicted to games. Vert notices that she can't return to the earlier dungeon. She observes that this is by design and a terrible one at that. Neptune get concerned and calls out to Vert. Vert guesses she will have to restart from her previous save. Noire calls out to Vert. Vert notices the party and wonders who they are. She apologizes as she is a bit preoccupied at the moment.

Neptune begs Vert to pull herself together and snap back to reality. Vert is confused by what the strange notion of reality.

Later at the inn, Vert declares she feels refreshed after her bath. Vert apologizes for taking so long with the Resistance as she had a few games she has to play. Blanc wonders if really was just a few. Vert confirms this and says thanks to that, she was able to relieve some stress. Vert apologizes for the trouble. Neptune wonders what would have happened if they never looked around for Vert. Blanc thinks it would not be strange if Vert just played games forever.

Vert thinks she could never do that as her limit is an hour a day. Noire wonders what this hour is for, a break? It seems like that hour is just for a break from games. Vert laughs at Noire's joke. Noire thinks Vert needs help.
