|
|
<show chara="shakesCasualQuestionClose" position="center"/>
|

|
|
<show chara="BertrandNormal" position="center"/>
|
|
<speak chara="_bertrand">The Emperor's power began to fade over the years. By the time he got that power from the Indian madman he was nearing the end of his life.</speak>
|
|
<show chara="BertrandThink" position="center"/>
|
|
<speak chara="_bertrand">If he hadn't done something, his 「Super Human」 power would had faded away and he would had died soon after... and the new empire he built in Britain would be destroyed.</speak>
|
|
<show chara="BertrandNormal" position="center"/>
|
|
<speak chara="_bertrand">The Emperor began to methodically drink the drug left behind by the madman which no one knew how to reproduce. Around that time a British officer wanted to become 「immortal」 and tried to steal one of the vials.</speak>
|
|
<speak chara="_bertrand">——I'm talking about Hudson Lowe, the man I mentioned earlier.</speak>
|
|
<show chara="BertrandThink" position="center"/>

|
|
<show chara="BertrandNormal" position="center"/>
|
|
<speak chara="_bertrand">That reminds me, it was about that time the Emperor learned the secret of the 「Hymn」. I don't remember which one happened first but anyway, the Emperor acquired the power of the 「Hymn」 and the blueprints to make the 「wall」.</speak>

<show chara="BertrandNormal" position="center" opacity="0.8"/>

|

<show chara="shakesCasualNormalClose" position="center" opacity="0.8"/>
|
|
<show chara="BertrandNormal" position="center"/>
|
|
<speak chara="_bertrand">The 「Hymn」 is a piece of music made by the 「Prophet」. It brings forth the 「Baptism」 lying dormant inside people's blood engraved by their ancestors, to prevent it from diluting and losing efficacy.</speak>
|
|
<show chara="BertrandSmile" position="center"/>
|
|
<speak chara="_bertrand">After learning that, the Emperor used that musical piece to make every tribe and settlement swear loyalty to his empire.</speak>

<speak chara="_bertrand">Yes.</speak>

<show chara="BertrandNormal" position="center"/>

<speak chara="_bertrand">First, an individual may not bring harm to the collective or, through inaction, allow the collective to come to harm.</speak>
|
|
<show chara="BertrandNormal" position="center"/>
|
|
<speak chara="_bertrand">Second, an individual may not bring harm to another individual as long as the first principle is not violated.</speak>
|
|
<show chara="BertrandNormal" position="center"/>
|
|
<speak chara="_bertrand">Third, an individual must obey the orders given by the collective except where such orders would conflict with the first and second principles.</speak>
|
|
<show chara="BertrandThink" position="center"/>
|
|
<speak chara="_bertrand">——These 「instincts」 were engraved into people's blood, and gradually they spread out throughout the continent.</speak>
|

<p class="article-text">“蹴球”（玛雅语：pitz；纳瓦特尔语：ōllamalīztli）是一种发源于中美洲的球类运动，有超过三千年的历史。由于这项运动的历史非常悠久，它的详细规则随时间和地点会有所不同。一般而言，这是两人或两方对赛的竞技项目。</p>
|
|
<p class="article-text">蹴球在古代具有宗教意义。球本身代表太阳，正式的比赛常被认为是天上的神明与地下世界的主宰之间的斗争。而最后（在正式比赛中），落败一方的领队会被斩首或取出心脏以作活祭品，他的头骨将作为新球的球心（当时的球都是实心橡胶球）。</p>
