Or where a certain Deity wishes to salvage what they can and where a little girl tries to find acknowledgement and praise.

An: Hello everyone I'm Khororhoth, long time Lurker, I have been around for some years and now I want to throw my hat at the ringer that is questing here in Sufficient Velocity.
It's my first time writing in English since some time and I don't have a beta, so expect errors here and there.
One last thing, please have mercy on me.
Without further ado, let's begin.



____ doesn't know where she is, the last thing she remembers was being in her bed…

…Ah!

So that's it, she is dreaming!

But what a strange dream it is…

-[] A boundless Cosmos.
AHH!! A new Friend!

-[] A flower garden.
Mhh, Oya Oya!

-[] A white Bleached Wasteland.
Ah, so that's it.

-[X] A room that is…Lost?
…Director?




And. Here. We. Go.

An: Here you have it.



-[x] A room that is…Lost?

It's a small room with a bed in the middle and a mirror in the wall, it's... quite lonely.

Director, how? Why?
Neither she nor you can interact with each other, this one way mirror is the only reason you can see her.​
Huh!
Give me a moment and I will be back with you, I would be a poor host if I didn't explain the miss what is happenning.​


Hello there!

Hah!

Sorry for starling you little miss, I'm __________ and I rented this room so we could talk without interference nor peepers.

Who are you?! Do you know who I am?! My name is ____ _____ _______ ___________ and I will tell my father about this!!

It's really you, Director

I have already talked with _________ about this meeting and has given his approval about it.

Oh, ahm, then speak, I don't have all the time to bother with this formalities! Tell me what you have scheduled this meeting for so we can continue.

My my, eager are we. Don't worry, this won't take much of your time, but before we begin, tell me.

Where, and When, are we?

-[] Write in:

AN: 1 Hour memoratorium to think and present options.

Beginning (Part 2)
AN: Welp, let's see what I can pull out.

You stare at him for a moment. "...Just what kind of question is that!". Really, even if father approved of this meeting, should it become a waste of time then-
Intrigue DC 20/100: 98+12=110(art-crit!) Crit roll: 47+6+10=63

A réalisation made her stop. 'I... can't track the passage of time! No, that's not the only thing' she thought. 'My name! When I spoke my name it was wrong!'

The ___________ were an Old Magus family who had spent thousands of years refining the Mysteries of their crest and for even one of their most basic and simple of their spell to be trounced is no insignificant matter!

You:

-[] Demand an explanation (Diplomacy DC: 20/50/100)

-[] Calm yourself and go over the room once more (Intrigue DC: 50/120)

-[X]Try to unveil the Mystery that was put upon you (Spirit DC: 80)

Beginning (Part 3)
AN:Sorry for the lateness, I was revising the mechanics of the quest, and it took me a long while, so without further ado, here is the chapter.

Try to unveil the Mystery that was put upon you: 73+33=106 // Crit: 26+6=32 (Crit Pass)

You focus on your Magical Circuits, yours and of your family Crest, and produce magical energy, you channel it throughout your whole body. You soon find the curse and then proceed to purge it out of yourself.

For several moments are there, standing still and overheating and torturing your body as you slowly but surely scrub every trace of the curse.

When you are finish you almost slump on the floor and make a fool of yourself. But you are an Animusphere, and as the daughter of a Lord you Always have to be dignified. So you remain standing even when your legs want to give out.

*Clap**Clap*Clap**Clap* The clapping startles you out of Monologuing Self-Reflection and you turn once more to the man.

"Well I must say that I am impressed little miss, even if the curse composition was quite basic it's function was certainly not." He says "No, beyond that, what impressed me the most is that you could purge it and remain standing." He continues.

"Hmph, that's given, as an Animusphere, I must always be dignified" You say with grace.

"Right, well let's begin the introductions anew. My name is Khororhoth, and as I said before, your father, Marisburi Animusphere, has given me the permission to put you through a series of tests to verify your capabilities, and I must say that you have passed with flying colors" He- Khororhoth finalises and you preen nod at the explanation.

She is so tiny, so cute.

"This test where done so I could verify if you were apt for certain Boons that have a series contracts attached, I shall warn you that these are contracts that must be finalised in your lifetime, so your won't be able to pass these boons to the next generation of your family just like that"

Contracts and boons?

"And what sort of boons are they" If your father approved then it must be something worthwhile.

"Well here they are" Khororhoth hands you a paper.

You read it.
...
...
...
...
..."Is this a joke? your voice is filled with annoyance that you try to keep down.

"I assure you that this is no joke, now choose, It may not look like it but we don't have much time left" He says.

You grumble but still, you will humor him.

CHOOSE:

[] Connection to the「 」
Boon: Mystic Eyes of Death Perception (Unlocks the prowess stat, +30 to prowess)
Gain limited access to the 「 」records (+50 to one action)
Your magical capabilities are no longer limited to your Magic circuits (Unlocks Psionics research, you can now train naturally your Spirit Stat)

Contract: Uplift Humanity to the Age of Stars (Will have to focus on A-ray related research).

[X] Beyond the Domain and the Cosmos
Boon: The limits of your existence are removed (All stat caps are removed)
The hold of the rules of Reality upon you has loosened (+20 to any action, Unlocks Reality and Fantasy Research)
Gain trait "Inhuman Mindset" (+20 Diplomacy with Non-Humans, -20 Diplomacy with Humans)

Contract: You will become my embassador (Must take Diplomacy action that will benefit Khororhoth if the opportunity presents itself).

[] Moon Cell
Boon: Spiritron Engineering, you can now make Technomagic without Mystery (Unlocks Innovation and Refining research).
Gain limited access to the Moon Cell records (+50 to one action)
Gain limited access to the Moon Cell observational capabilities (Gain Clairvoyance (Present))

Contract: The Moon Cell is damaged, fix it (Will spend an action every turn focused on this)

Edit: Think carefully, about which one you choose, because all contracts have their consequences.
Edit 2: Retrofitted the chosen Contract, Past Me was dumb, Now Me is dealing with the consequences.

Winner
[X] Beyond the Boundary and Cosmos

Well seems that you choose Hard Mode, there is no way that is going to end bad!:V
 
Beginning (Part 4)
AN: Sorry for being late, I needed to do some research on our protagonist, so I spent the last days watching Fgo First Order, The El Melloi II Case Files and rereading the game story.
Anyway.
Enjoy.;)

Beyond the Domain and the Cosmos
Olga carefully considers her choices.

The 'Connection to the「 」' contract is just absurd, no two ways about it, so it must be a red herring. The 'Moon Cell' contract implies that the referred artifact is damaged, and who would take a job like that even if it theoretically gives you something like clairvoyance.

That leaves the 'Beyond the Domain and the Cosmos' contract, which isn't as bad as it portrays itself. Besides, didn't dad said that it's a magus duty to discard the Common Sense of Man in pursuit of the Root of All Things.

"This one" You say pointing at the referred Boon.

Khororhoth gives a glance a the forwarded option."Are you sure that you want to take this path? I will sometimes put you in impossible situations or give you unreasonable tasks." He finally says after a moment. You look at him with a pout unimpressed gaze. "...Well your funeral, but then again this makes it both easier and harder for me, so I ask you one more time, do really want to become the ambassador of a Primordiality Rank Existence. While Alaya won't be searching for one good reason the off you if you don't behave thanks to a deal that I made, both her and Gaia will be keeping an eye on you."

Wait, What?!

You just pout harder look at him with a determined look.

"Okay, as I said before, your funeral. Now, the last thing before I send you of, the contract allows you to choose 10 minor Boons at your selection, here is the list."

You look over the new paper.

CHOOSE:
[] Doble Chance: Allows for Bo2 roll in an action respective to the Stat (A Crit is automatically selected, good or bad)(Each one cost 1 Boon).
-[] Martial
-[] Diplomacy
-[] Stewardship
-[] Intrigue
-[] Learning
-[] Spirit
--[] Doble Chance (Complete Mastery)**: Now You can roll for Bo3 (Costs an extra 1 Boon)

[X] Possibility Culling: Once per turn, the lowest roll can be rerolled (Doesn't work on nat 1)(Costs 1 Boon)
-[] Possibility Culling (Complete mastery)**: Allows nat 1's to be rerolled (Costs an extra 2 Boons)

[X]Starter Boost: gain a +10 in any Stat aside from Spirit (Can be taken multiple times)(Costs 1 Boon)
-[] Martial
-[] Diplomacy
-[] Stewardship
-[] Intrigue
-[X] Learning

[]Holy Grail: A magical item that materializes the desires of all humanity. Be it good or evil, this item takes the form of a golden cup. Should it be filled, it shall grant a single wish within the scope of Humanity, or it can be used as a self-sustaining mana battery so long as you don't go over it's base output (Costs 2 Boons)

[X]Greater Holy Grail: A dreadnaught-class Magical Reactor Core, an all-mighty wish artifact that can punch a hole in the sky directly to the「 」, and so, capable of enacting True Magic at planetary level, should it be filled that is. (Costs 6 Boons)

[X] Recovery of Humanity: Lose the -20 Diplomacy drawback of 'Inhuman Mindset' (Cost 2 Boons)
-[] Understanding of Humanity: Gain +20 Diplomacy when interacting with Humans. The 'Inhuman Mindset' trait Changes to 'Understanding of Mentalities' trait. (Costs an extra 2 Boons)

** Complete Mastery can be archived through Personal Actions.
Edit: Finally came around to fix the chapter to make it more in line with the changes of the previous one.

On Stats
Plz provide some benchmarks for stats. It is hard to evaluate the value of +stat options without knowing how much is needed to... idk, match a Servant with a C-rank in STR match a mediocre martially-inclined Servant.

And, perhaps, more info on what "Spirit" does. Others are mostly traditional stats, but this one is new.
You are right in that the traditional stats are unchanged, Martial, Diplomacy, Stewardship, Intrigue and Learning, they all work the same, I shall get back to Spirit in a moment, first here is the Stat benchmark:

Stats
1-3 Child,
4-7 teen,
8-10 adult,
11-14 experienced,
15-19 peak human,
20-24 champion/Magical Beast,
25-29 25+ is E-rank,
30-34 Phantasmal Beast/ D-rank,
35+ ??????? (SURPASS THE LIMITS OF HUMANITY)
(This list shall be revised in the future)

Now, about the Spirit Stat, this Stat represents the ability of "Rewrite reality to the logic of the being". It's basically what Humans in Nasuverse do as a collective but measured to an individual level. It's what Magus do with their Thaumaturgical Fundations (The Software) and their magical circuits (The Hardware).
The base of the Spirit Stat Cannot be raised in the Age of Man by virtue of magical circuits being set from the moment of birth, so this Stat can't be trained.
For that you need to unlock Psionics, ????, ??????? and ????????? Boons, or unlocking the ????? Stat, which will allow to change the means of how to interface with the Software, making magical circuits, well not redundant but certainly not absolute.

Edit: oh and about Olga's Statsheet, it will be revealed at the end of the prologue.
Edit 2: Added certain Boons to the requirements of increasing the Spirit Stat.

So, the results are woosy, give me some time do something.

Edit: Here it is.

Winner
[X] Recovery of Humanity
[x] Possibility Culling
[X]Greater Holy Grail

There is a draw between the two remaining Boons, so I will roll to see which one wins.

Dice says 2, Starter Boost wins.

Rolling for which stat gets boosted.

Dice says 4, Learning gets boosted.
Khororhoth threw 1 2-faced dice. Total: 2
2 2
Khororhoth threw 1 4-faced dice. Total: 4
4 4
