Adventures of the Rosy Celestial Maiden
A mysterious street vendor's book from Okhema... Could the actual author be the Rosy Celestial Maiden herself? Is she really not a ghost?

Adventures of the Rosy Celestial Maiden

Looks like I've got a grasp on what's going on,
I didn't physically enter this world.
I might just be a ghost,
A ghost named "Rosy Celestial Maiden,"
...hope I don't scare anyone.

These days, no one can see me directly,
and I can't meddle in anything either.
Just like a "memetic" entity Black Swan was talking about,
but I must have left some traces behind, right?
...Otherwise, who do they think they're talking about when they mention the "Rosy Celestial Maiden"?

I remembered the day I ran into that red-haired girl.
She was praying in a secret chamber:
"I have accepted the mission. I have to set out..."
Surely, it must have been something very important,
"Mom... see you tomorrow."
Just going with my gut, I followed after her.
Sure enough, she was stopped by unreasonable guards.

But what can someone like me possibly do?
... I want to help her on her journey more than anything.
Just stand by and watch? Not a chance!
Hey, even "memetic entities" have our own special talents!
I could be her shield! Or maybe her spear!
Heck, I could even be a crumbled pillar...

"Is the Titan... on her side?"
Ha! Wrong answer! It's ME who's on her side!
...If only I could actually show up in front of her.
Just imagine how much more I could do for her.

"Finally... beyond this gate awaits a boundless world."
"This is where my journey begins."
She made it.
But as a memetic entity... I'm completely worn out.
...When I came to, I was somewhere totally different.

"She won't remember you. You won't leave a trace in anyone's memories..."
I think I heard another me speaking.
Am I going crazy?
I should be fine! I can't even imagine what it'd be like if I actually lost my marbles...

But hey, I totally left a trace.
She might not remember me, but she successfully started her journey now.
That "rather illogical outcome" on the day her journey began was my mark.
Just like the Rosy Celestial Maiden.
Amphoreus might not remember me, but the legend of the Rosy Celestial Maiden is everywhere in this land.

I'm not throwing in the towel yet.
Someday, everyone in Amphoreus will know exactly who the Rosy Celestial Maiden really is!
