Kino: “It’s pretty interesting”
Hermes: “What is?”
Kino: “The way that when someone expresses anything, someone’s always there to interpret it.”
Kino: “Why can’t the world just be a series of events”
Hermes: “Sure. With the last one being tomorrow.”
Kino: “I don’t think there is anyone who know how or when the world is going to end. It would be too easy.”
Hermes: “But what would you be doing if the world was really going to end tomorrow”
Kino: “The exact same thing I’m doing right now.”

THERE WAS A KINO AT ACEN SADFACE THAT I MISSED HER!
Wonderfully done~

- Kino’s weapon of choice, “The Cannon” is a custom Colt 1851 Navy London Model revolver. It is described as firing .44 caliber bullets (as opposed to the 1851’s normal .36 caliber bullets) and uses “liquid gunpowder”. Kino is also seen detaching the loading lever from the front of the barrel and using at as a foregrip when using a specialized, high-power round.
- Kino’s secondary weapon is a custom Colt Woodsman Match Target referred to as “The Ranger”. It features a threaded barrel for the addition of a sound suppressor, and a laser sight has been built into the weighted compensator. Kino keeps it in an IPSC holster behind her back.
- Kino carries a ballistic knife capable of firing .22 caliber rounds out of the grip. She appears to have replaced one of the barrels with a laser pointer.
Hermes: “The most important thing for a traveler is decisiveness. That holds true for both rookie and veteran travelers. Am I wrong?”
Kino: “The most important thing for a traveler is what saves the traveler after struggling to the bitter end.”
Hermes: “What’s that?”
Kino: “That’s luck”

- The Author: "The difference between reality and illusion is that illusions are which humans have created. Life begins when you make a distinction between yourself and others. From that moment, the world becomes a stage in which you are the main character. Yet all people exist in the illusion that they are the main character. But the world, cruel as it is, denies you that role of the main character. It’s quite a twist and everyone is burdened with this sad bit of irony, but there is one way to escape."
- Kino: To not to be a main character, to be a smaller role, or…
- The Author: "That’s right, to be an author."
- Hermes: "You do know he’s crazy right?"
- Kino: "All I know is that normal people would never become authors."
