Shiroe and his group take Serara southwards.  On the way, they stop at the house of one of the "People of the Land".  The people of the land were originally only characters in the game, with no personalities or unique traits of their own, but as Naotsugu talks to them, something seems odd...  The party gradually realizes that the world isn't the same as it was when it was a game.
There was a blizzard outside.
Draußen herrschte ein Schneesturm und
ihr Vater war auf dem Markt in der Stadt.
Había una ventisca.
Il y avait une tempête de neige,
et leur père était parti à la ville.
Fuori c'era una tormenta
Foi uma nevasca daquelas!
Вьюга разгулялась.
