She was, but she was sent away from here several months ago.

[A regretful look crosses Diarmuid's face.]

I am sorry. If you would like to see the stone in the graveyard that was placed there when she left to allow us a way to remember her, I will be glad to show it to you.

[heavensfailure]

[He would have liked to reunite with her. Even if it was a different her.]

I'd like to see it sometime.

[oathshackledbird]

I will be glad to take you there.

[A sad look enters his eyes. Considering how much they meant to each other, Diarmuid would have liked nothing else than to be able to reunite them.]

It is not much, but it helps to have something solid when the memories just aren't enough.

[heavensfailure]

Thanks.

[...topic change.]

You know my name, but I don't know yours.

[oathshackledbird]

Oh! My apologies.

[Diarmuid bows to Shiriou the best as he can from his seated position.]

My name is Diarmuid Ua Duibhne. It is a pleasure to meet you.

[heavensfailure]

Nice to meet you too. Sorry it's like this.

[oathshackledbird]

As am I, but at least I can help you to get settled in more safely. It doesn't erase the wrongness of this whole situation, but it helps a little, yes?

What questions can I answer for you?

[heavensfailure]

Mostly, what are we doing to get out of here, and can I help?

[oathshackledbird]

There is a lot going on here and things do change very quickly. Let me start with that.

[He falls quiet a few moments thinking of where to best start.]

Do you know much about research?

[heavensfailure]

Absolutely nothing, sorry.

[oathshackledbird]

[Diarmuid waves a dismissive hand.]

It's okay. There are other roles that can be filled. Will you tell me where your talents do lie? That way I can give you the information most relevant to your skills first.

[heavensfailure]

Well, fighting. I can still Trace weapons but I'm not as good as it as I used to be. Getting used to a different body's circuits is hard.

[oathshackledbird]

Trace weapons?

[Diarmuid gives Shirou a confused look.]

I apologize, but I don't know what that means.

[heavensfailure]

Reproduce them, basically. Learn their structure and then project another copy of them.

[oathshackledbird]

Project? Out of thin air?

[It is unfortunate that while Diarmuid did meet the Archer who was once Emiya Shirou, he never got a chance to see the man use his power and so has no idea how said power works. All he can think of is summoning a weapon, but that is completely different from creating one.]

[heavensfailure]

Basically.

[Explaining Nasuverse magic is not a job for Emiya Shirou.]

[oathshackledbird]

That is a...unique ability.

[In fact, Diarmuid has never heard of a magi with such an ability before. Granted, he knows of very few magi. Perhaps Waver would know better.]

However, it also seems like a useful ability to have. You are never unarmed that way.

[heavensfailure]

I've done pretty well with it so far. But it's not working as well for me now...

[oathshackledbird]

Just because of the new body as you mentioned...

[Diarmuid motions toward Shirou.]

...or is this something that has gotten worse since you arrived here?

[heavensfailure]

I haven't tried it since I showed up a few hours ago.

[oathshackledbird]

[Diarmuid smiles in understanding.]

It is all right. Don't worry about it. You have had a lot of other things on your mind.

[heavensfailure]

How long have people been here?

[oathshackledbird]

I am not sure on that since I have only been here a year myself, but...

[He pauses a moment to sort through his memories.]

If I am remembering right, I know of at least one person who has been here for too close to three years.

[heavensfailure]

That's terrible!

[Three years is a long time to be in a horrortower.]

[oathshackledbird]

It is, but at the same time, I prefer not to think of it that way.

[Diarmuid gestures with one hand as if he is trying to think of the best way to explain. In the end, he just goes with the simplest.]

Even though it has been that long, they are still sane and still fighting. They have grown stronger instead of being broken and that is a good thing.
