Blood-Stained Tome

 is an event in SINoALICE.

Verse 1
I had been met by an eternal darkness,

a world of limitless night.

I thought back to the home I’d left behind,

a place to which I could never return.

Then they appeared, with hands outstretched.

Verse 2
This is the Library, a peculiar place full of countless stories.

Here rests the collective imagination of everything.

The characters all gather here,

entangled in the spinning web of time and space.

Verse 3
The Library… Trust not your eyes,

for this place will change its shape to suit your vision.

Some see only darkness, while others see universes,

penned and coined, on countless sheets of pure white dreaming.

Verse 4
I have travelled endlessly since coming to this fractured world…

And every time,

I have seen the same sight.

Verse 5
The stories of this world are endlessly replicated.

In my travel, I sought to trace their plots and uncover nuances in the most intimate details.

What possibilities I could discover...

Verse 6
The stories diverged, stretching into infinity.

Could there be redemption written between those pages?

Have the wishes of their characters been fulfilled?

Verse 7
There was such a noticeable difference between how the authors treat their characters...and myself.

What makes me different?

I needed answers.

Verse 8
Perhaps I would have continued to blindly believe the words they threw at me,

had they been trustworthy.

However, I had to find my own way.

Verse 9
If the endings that await at the climax of those innumerable stories were set in stone,

I told myself I would shatter the mold.

Verse 10
Really? Another failure?

Humanoid nightmares serve no purpose.

Requesting an eight investigator immediately…

I don’t wish to send for duplicates if I don’t have to. Related Pages
