[locked from known hostiles] - [audio]

[lyricalmagical]

I'm very glad to say I've finally been given a clean bill of health and let go from the DATS Medical Ward.

I've got an awful lot to catch up on, now!

However, I wanted to thank those out there who helped in battling Chaosmon, both those on the island and those who rallied around Vice-Commander Ivan's call to arms. It was very much appreciated.

Do take some time to remember, and appreciate, that we standing here are fortunate. Our homes were restored, and we're still able to continue forward. Many on Draco Island cannot say the same, and never will again.

We would also not be standing here were it not for sacrifice of Meta Knight. Those on the Halberd have always been steadfast allies in our battles, and his is thus a painful loss for us all.

Thank you all, again.

And thank you, Ivan-san, for covering my duties these past couple months.

Has there been anything besides the obvious events that others have covered openly I need to be aware of?

Once I get everything sorted out, getting to spend some time with my daughter when I'm not laid up in a hospital bed, assessing all of the new Tamer class specifications... DATS can expect a brand new round of training courses to cover all of these recent changes, as well!

On a scale of 1-10, where 6 is Ivan's standard training practices, how potentially painful will these new training exercises be?

[lyricalmagical]

I'm somewhat disappointed you don't already know the answer to that.

Fourteen?

We must make sure we're in prime condition, after all!

R-right...

It'll be a little bit, though.

I need to look into these Tamer Classes first.

I'll especially need to talk to some of them. Especially those who come from worlds where these are their primary means of teaming with Digimon.

It'll change the ways we approach things a little bit. It's exciting!

Oh my! That Chaosmon sounds horrible! Oh if only the other girls were here! We could unleash the Elements of Harmony and reclaim this world from the evil trying to destroy it!

[lyricalmagical]

Sadly, given the limitations placed upon us in this world, it likely would not be that simple.

The notion is very much appreciated, though, Miss.

[guardianofearth]

Commander, I'd really like to apologize for Randar's behavior during the Chaosmon battle...

[darkmagicalgirl]

... Nanoha, are you certain you're completely up to speed?

[crestofcourage]

... Welcome back, commander.

[lyricalmagical]

Thank you, Taichi.

How are you feeling?

[lyricalmagical]

Of course I am, silly!

[crestofcourage]

Like I've done something horrible.

[darkmagicalgirl]

Alright...

You know I'm going to keep worrying, right?

[lyricalmagical]

And it was beyond your control. I understand that may not make you feel any better, but I also had faith you were still you underneath what Daemon had done.

That was why we had to make sure you'd be met by people who could get through to you. I was certain Sora would meet you, and I made sure Masaru did the same.

[lyricalmagical]

You never do anyhow, but they wouldn't have let me out were I still hurt.

[crestofcourage]

...

That doesn't change the fact that I'm responsible.

I still accepted his ultimatum... I should have found another way...

[lyricalmagical]

Yes, and I see that Vice-Commander Ivan has handled things further towards that since then.

You and he need to understand that as Tamers, you must function as a unit. The actions of one will always affect the other, and if you are to be efficient in the field, neither of you can let your emotions or tempers run unchecked, and remember that our chain of command is there for a reason.

[lyricalmagical]

That ultimatum was...?

[darkmagicalgirl]

I know...

We should do something. Celebrate somehow.

[crestofcourage]

That he'd kill my friends if I didn't accept Stage 2...

[Audio]

[uberlikehermama]

You're really feeling better Nanoha-mama!?

[lyricalmagical]

Given all Daemon has done to you, and the power he wields... He very well could have made good on that threat. Without the power of Ultimate Evolution, we wouldn't have stood a chance against him. Simon, Agent Medetta, and a couple of our new inductees barely survived against him WITH Ultimates.

He manipulated and used you, Taichi. That is their power. Be angry at him, not at yourself.

[lyricalmagical]

Of course!

...

Though I really want to look at these new Tamer abilities. Like those new Xros Tamers that arrived, it looks like at least one of them is primed to join us. And we have several Matrix Tamers looking at things, now. We just need a Spirit Tamer...
