Originally registered at Rhodes Island as the leader of the Glasgow Gang, she later worked alongside us as the leader of the Exemplars during the Londinium War. Now, as the Speaker of Parliament, she maintains our cooperative relationship. Rhodes Island has been supporting Londinium's healthcare system, and Vina Victoria has pledged to broaden our partnership in other areas.
Imaging tests reveal clear, normal outlines of internal organs, and no abnormal shadows have been detected. Originium granules have not been detected in the circulatory system and there is no sign of infection. At this time, this operator is believed to be uninfected.

After the war, Vina Victoria completed another physical examination. The medical report was submitted by a local operator from the Londinium branch, and contains subjective assessments (see below) which I recommend removing from the file.
'I personally saw her battle at Silverrock Bluffs, a literal mountain of Originium. She charged to the frontlines with no protective gear, but somehow avoided infection. It's been days since then, and I can't help but wonder if that was a sign that Victoria can lead us through tough times.'
What, should we check if she gets food stuck in her teeth during meals too? If not, maybe that means Victoria will sweep away the old refuse and lead us into a glorious future? Maybe we're placing way too many expectations on a single person.

Initially, most of our operators had a limited understanding of Vina Victoria due to significant gaps in her records, which were based entirely on scant personal details leaked by the Glasgow Gang to HR.
However, when she returned to Rhodes Island as the Speaker of Londinium's Parliament, she quickly changed those perceptions.
Many noticed that, as Speaker, Vina acted with more caution, likely due to her new status.
According to the Glasgow Gang, Vina 'has a particular fondness for strange-flavored candies', but when the 'Odd-Food Enthusiasts' of Rhodes Island offered her a super-spicy star-anise-and-angelica root lollipop, Vina politely but firmly declined. There was also a rumor that she 'likes to doodle on her clothes'. However, the operators know that the intricate embroidery and patterns on her royal garments are definitely not doodles.
Many have remarked that Vina has become more laid-back and carefree after coming to Rhodes Island.
How about the claim that she is 'a picky eater who hates potatoes'? This was disproven after she was seen, on several occasions, chowing down on the nutritious meals provided by Hibiscus. The assertion that she is 'low energy and sluggish' was also quickly debunked. According to our operators, Vina actively takes part in many activities at Rhodes Island, including postpartum care for burdenbeasts and test-driving Engineering's new tractor.
What should we make of the changes in Vina Victoria's lifestyle? That's still being looked into. However, it is clear that many of the personal details leaked by the Glasgow Gang and recorded in Vina's file were simply pranks and should be removed.
Pranks?! If you remove anything, you're boneheads! You hear me, HR, official boneheads! I'll fight every single one of you!—Indra
Vina once said she liked sour lollipops because the intense sourness made her feel more alive. It's probably the same reason I enjoy the awful, nearly expired sauce from Old Hank's shop.
As for the claw marks she draws on her clothes, she said it's to let the ingrates see at a glance what kind of marks she can leave on them.
As for her hating potatoes, that part's true, but it also shows her determination and resolve. She even dragged Hannah into the boxing ring once, to get her to eat all her potatoes for her.
And the reason she can fall asleep anywhere is because she's always exhausted. I get that—if I had to be two people at once, I'd be tired too.
That's the Vina I know, and no one can tell me otherwise! These new 'records' you're adding are nothing but lies.
—Morgan
But whenever we see her, she's the same old Vina. She still shoves her potatoes onto Hannah's plate like always.
—Dagda
Hold on, Dagda, that isn't contradictory. While I no longer dislike potatoes, it's still funny to put them on Hannah's plate... But Mr. Recordkeeper sir, everything Morgan said is completely true as well! I've even fallen off the tram while dozing off...
Tch, never mind, why am I bothering to explain this? Anyway, those are all things I've done, so just leave them in my file!

[Classified Log]
I don't know precisely what trick Kal'tsit used, but she did manage to get Siege, who was living in fear in a foreign land, to let down her guard and treat Rhodes Island as a second home. During that time, she would even drag Kal'tsit to their Glasgow Gang dormitory to watch movies.
So, when Kal'tsit finally called her by her full name, 'Alexandrina Vina Victoria,' all her hair stood up. I remember it clearly: she smacked Mon3tr with a hammer so hard it started buzzing; you could hear it from the hallway.
But she only hit it once. This time, she didn't run away.

Doctor, I've actually never been sure whether the path I'm on is one I've chosen for myself. From my biological father, to the dukes who sent him to the gallows, to the 'Unicorn' pulling strings behind the scenes... they've all tried to control my life, pushing me into different roles for all sorts of purposes. But I can't see what lies ahead. I really don't know what path they've put me on. To be honest, I hate it.
When I first came back to Londinium, I thought I was heading home to deal with some minor family issues. I never imagined I would end up where I am now, doing what I'm doing. But Dr. Kal'tsit did, didn't she? Right from the beginning. Even when she first brought me to Rhodes Island, she was already looking toward Londinium, wasn't she?
Ha, you won't deny it. I only just realized that Dr. Kal'tsit—and even you, Doctor—have already thought more about my life's trajectory than I had. All while leaving me completely in the dark.
What, you think I'm angry? Not at all. I think of it as you competing against those who've tried to manipulate me, and helping me defeat them. I don't regret my choices in the slightest, and neither should you.

The Holy Orb of Order, a symbol of the Victorian parliamentary system, is usually held by the Speaker (the King themself). It is made of a special alloy crafted by royal alchemists; its deep blue hue emits a mysterious, shifting glow when placed in the light. It is adorned with a golden band in the center, set with various dark gemstones. There are two different Holy Orbs of Order: one engraved with a red dragon, and the other with a lion. The former belongs to the Draco royal family, and the latter belongs to the Aslan royal family. Eventually, the orb with the red dragon disappeared along with the Draco royal bloodline, while the orb with the lion has been passed down through the Aslan royal family for generations.
Professor Briggs, 65 years old, and a faculty member at Victorian National University, tearfully recounted his experience. According to him, the current Speaker of Parliament, Vina Victoria, unexpectedly approached him one sunny afternoon, seeking information on the Holy Orb of Order. After Professor Briggs carefully explained the orb's history and political significance, as well as the process used to make it, the Speaker revealed her true purpose: she wanted to repurpose it into a voting bell to remind members to attend votes punctually! She even planned to make replicas and distribute them to every MP!
Professor Briggs deeply regretted not asking for clarification in the beginning. He tried to 'hypnotize' the Speaker with his words, hoping she would forget this absurd idea as well as what he had told her, but unsurprisingly, he failed. In his despair, he cried that a royal heirloom, the sacred symbol of Parliament, should never be desecrated like this—and if it were, it certainly would not be in relation to him.
The Speaker, however, had a different perspective. She boldly asserted that since both the Holy Orb and the voting bell are used to maintain parliamentary order, they are clearly the same thing.

Your Grace, we are losing Victoria.
The Duke of Wellington's stance is clear, and his will is firm. We have no way to respond by force, lest we provoke another war. While Tara's economy is imbalanced, its foundation remains strong. You would need to collaborate even more closely than you currently do with the other dukes if you want to put economic pressure on the Duke of Wellington.
On the other side, only Alexandrina and Parliament remain. As you said, there is no need to rush in and get involved; rather than seizing authority, Alexandrina seems to be building her own power base in a land where previous sources of authority have already been shattered. The power she is accumulating... we could have harvested it.
However, as I've mentioned several times in my reports, her methods are unconventional. She appears adept at dismantling established symbols of power. Though she is currently powerless against the crown, the Holy Orb of Order has already been reduced to what common folk jokingly call a 'gold-plated alarm clock.'
I don't know how she plans to establish her authority after so eagerly dismantling the existing symbols of power. I believe her approach will lead to one of two outcomes: either she will quickly be hanged by her own people, or she will create a kind of power we've never seen before and can't ever hope to harness.

Ha, it's happening all over again. I pass some bills in Parliament, and they remain indifferent... but when that little orb is placed on the lathe, everyone gets so worked up.
When all else fails, shake things up! That still works in politics, from time to time.

This one? This is a photo that the Count of Schutzbury gave me. Don't worry about who he is for now... Can you guess what it's of?
Right, it's just a blurry mess, I can't make it out either. The day he gave it to me, he didn't prattle on about his usual theories of justice. Instead, he looked at this blurry photo and went on and on about what he saw in it: a bakery with a red sign, selling the worst bread on the block. Yet, homeless people would gather in front of it every night, eating the leftover bread the owner had left out. There was a sunken area on the road in front of the shop, where water would collect every time it rained. The neighborhood children would pick up the bread wrappers thrown away by the adults and fold them into paper boats to float in the water, etc...
I later found out that his unusual behavior was something Vina had orchestrated.
Strange, isn't it? Morgan and the others told me that Vina used to be like all the other street thugs—she despised nobles to her core. Two months ago, I would have had a hard time imagining her speaking with any noble for ten minutes without throwing a punch. In the past two months, she's made more new noble friends than I've made new intelligence contacts. Of course, she still hates salons, fancy dinners, and balls, but at least she's willing to let a viscount talk about his family's ancestral beliefs before raising her fist, or let a scholar explain some new, emerging political theories, or let an army officer recount the social ills he's witnessed firsthand. Just like how she used to listen to me talk all night about Lynncardine. It seems like she is trying to understand the Victoria she's determined to shatter.
Victoria is dirty, but it's also proud. Over a thousand years ago, when the Draco people were still nomadic tribal leaders, they pieced together the earliest form of Victoria using a framework borrowed from Sargon. But the fundamental source of their power was still their ability to protect their people—something they took pride in. That pride has been passed down, stumbling along the way, to the present day. Every noble child still blindly recites 'Honor her glory, shield and protector,' just as their ancestors did, though they no longer can see the people they need to protect.
I think Vina must have seen that pride, which is why she's holding back her fist for now. She wants these people to open their eyes and see Victoria the way she does. So, while riding in Count Schutzbury's hot air balloon, Vina pressed his head down, making him look at the streets below, showing him that the people he treated like trash also had lives of their own. What he couldn't see, Vina described to him, street by street, until the sky began to lighten again, until the hot air balloon was frosted over.
After they came down, Count Schutzbury immediately called back those poor souls he had thrown into the boiler room without any protective gear. He started telling everyone about the sights he saw, the things he had learned for the very first time. Of course... we all know this was probably just momentary self-reflection. Vina opened his eyes, but in the end, he will most likely close them again.
But even so, for Victoria, this is a big deal.

Thank you for your skepticism, Feist.
...No, of course I don't want the military-industrial complex to dominate Victoria's future—that would only turn Victoria's future into Ursus's past.
My hope is only that any new technology retains the potential for military application.
My teacher told me that Rhodes Island will guide us down a path that confronts the destiny of the land. He wasn't speaking metaphorically. It was never Rhodes Island that pulled Victoria into the Core countries' political struggles: Victoria was inevitably being drawn into a much larger vortex.
When Rhodes Island reaches the end of its mission, I hope that we, and Victoria, will stand in the right position. By that time, I don't want her to be held back by an unwieldy industrial system or outdated military technology.
And until then... I assure you, nothing born from your hands will become an extension of anyone's ambitions.

Vina never expected her meeting with the Doctor after reboarding to take so long.
When she strolled through the Command Center doors on a whim, she never would have guessed the intense discussions the Doctor and Closure were having was about a board game of all things. Londinium's newest fad—The Adventure of the Lioness. There were only so many ways to kill time in the pubs right now, and this game for kids quickly found a home among pubgoers who loved picking at politics.
To all that, the Doctor replied: 'Closure and I see plenty of unpatched holes in the game design.'
She prepared to deploy her standard suite of excuse-mes and beat a hasty retreat, but Closure had already sealed off her escape route, and was urging her to join in. 'I can vouch. This game really takes me back to those days, you know? Underground in Londinium, fighting with the Self-Salvation Corps.'
And how was she to predict that a fun little idea from a couple of kids playing house would get snapped up, commercialized, shipped, and become all the rage in Londinium? And then the greatest surprise was Morgan gleefully bringing the game back to the landship and recommending it to everyone she possibly could.
'I'll play as you.' Taking on the 'Vina' role, the Doctor readied for the other two players' assault. Dice rolled again and again, and each time City Keeper 'Vina' came out on top, even twice succeeding in a complete counteroffensive and taking the 'Caster' territory for 'herself'.
Defeated time and time again by 'herself', Vina was somewhat exasperated. 'Doctor, this is cheating. Hardly anything you're doing is in the rulebook.'
'We never agreed to play by anyone else's rules, Vina.
'Londinium's an enormous city. There are plenty to draw on that the designers didn't know or care about. That's what I meant by holes.'
For a moment, Vina thought to herself, then threw herself decisively into the next round. The aftermath of an independent Tara, the strategic give-and-take of Caster, the Infected vanguard bearing news of Gododdin... Vina played character after character, trying with all her might to wrest the Doctor's advantage away, but always to minimal effect.
Before her eyes was a city that far surpassed her expectations. With a peculiar and twisted ambition, she sought to beat 'herself'.
But it was beyond her to read any of the strange and crafty angles by which the Doctor defused her offensives. Their tiny little board couldn't support the three's game anymore. With a flash of inspiration, Closure called directly on PRTS to simulate one that was even larger and more complex.
'Uh. Closure, are you allowed to use PRTS like that? What if Dr. Kal'tsit—'
Closure waved it off. 'She's got urgent business, she's not on the ship. Besides, I have the permissions to guarantee she'll never find out what we did.'
An absurdly protracted ten hours later, Vina finally had to excuse herself from the game thanks to an anonymous express delivery to her dormitory.
What had arrived was the yet-to-be-published first expansion for the game, including a series of all-new powers with all-new game plays. There was Normandy, Ashworth, and the Unicorn. Printed on the box was a roadmap for future expansions and updates, too.
'The Adeptus Chamber Knights, the Empire's Blades, the Agents of Operation Boulder, the Twins' Voices, and the Angels of Judgement...'
And finally, a message that left Vina silent.
'I hope you like it! Looking forward to your feedback. —Eleanor'

“议长大人，请容我献上这一件......小礼物。”
“揍歪下巴”拳馆里，一位大腹便便的贵族正站在维娜面前，而旁边的摩根将头撇在一边，一脸不悦。
“维娜，我已经帮你拦过好几次了，这次是真没辙了。”
“感谢您愿意把奥克特里格区的重建工程交给我来负责。”贵族赔着笑绕过了摩根，“之前我拜访了您的府邸好几次，结果您的朋友连门都没让我进。这次必须亲自把这个交到您手里我才能安心！”
没等维娜回答，贵族就将手中华贵的匣子缓缓打开，露出了里面的礼物。
“一只......梨球？”
虽然从外形上能勉强辨认，但那“梨球”还是让维娜有些哭笑不得——本该是挂在板架上、用粗帆布缝成的练习道具，此刻却被深蓝丝绒裹覆，绣着维多利亚的金色纹章，更可笑的是，它的顶端居然还镶上了各种繁复的配饰。
“我知晓您早年热爱拳术，所以特意请伦蒂尼姆手最巧的工匠定制了这个梨球。这上面还加入了一些我的小巧思——梨球的配色和您推崇的秩序圣球相呼应，这不正代表着您的意志和我们国家的方向永远统一？”
一口气说了一长串话，贵族已经明显有些气喘吁吁，他扯着自己的领带，想要让自己肥胖的脖颈好受一些。
“卡帕斯伯爵，您也对拳术有所研究？”
“当然！”伯爵的双眼开始发光。
维娜径直走向了一个空板架，把伯爵送的梨球挂在了上面。
“请吧，伯爵大人。这是您送的礼物，应该让您先来。”
伯爵面露难色，但盛情难却，他只能挽起袖子，朝梨球轻轻挥了一拳。梨球不痛不痒地晃了两下。
“再用点力，伯爵大人。”
“不能再用力了！这些金饰和宝石刮花了就——”
维娜没等伯爵说完，一拳挥出。梨球撞上板架，它顶部镶嵌的金狮配饰顿时断成了两半。看到这样的情形，伯爵在旁急得跳脚。
一拳，又一拳。各种小配饰从这颗华丽的梨球上稀稀拉拉地掉了下来，伯爵甚至都来不及捡。
“这......这可是我花了重金的啊！”伯爵的脸已经涨到红得发紫，“议长大人，您不喜欢这个礼物，也不必这么羞辱我！”
“不，卡斯帕伯爵，我很喜欢这个礼物。去掉这些不实用的部分，它是我用过的最精良的梨球。同样的，伯爵大人，除去您的这身华丽的衣服，我仍记得您年轻时在城市规划方面的诸多建树。如果您需要找我，去议长办公室就行，我大多数时间都在那里。另外，别忘了带上您的项目计划书。”
维娜停下了拳击，看着梨球。梨球因为惯性此刻仍在摇摇晃晃，上面用金线缝制的维多利亚国徽也因摇晃而变得难以看清。
“秩序圣球之所以得到人们的尊敬，绝不是因为它的华贵，而是因为我们的先辈创造过一个文明的奇迹。
“但很显然，如今我们所处的这个时代并不能称之为‘奇迹’。
“所以，伯爵大人，我会把这颗梨球挂在这里，让所有路过的人都能敲打它。
“如果有一天它不再摇晃，我希望不是因为大家觉得它尊贵......
“而是他们发自内心地认可，认可上面这枚由所有维多利亚人组成的国徽。”
