Track 9:
Nanoha: Huh?
Fate: Nanoha?
Nanoha: Fate-chan? What were we just doing?
Fate: Um. After school we decided to practice in the hills… Huh? Why are we in the park?
Nanoha: We’ve had a lot on our minds, so we both weren’t really paying attention?
Fate: That sounds like it, but it feels like I had a pleasant dream though.
Nanoha: Oh, so do I.
Fate: Um, anyways, let’s head home for now.
Nanoha: What sort of dream did you have Fate-chan?
Fate: Um, it was some ruins which I explored with friends.
Nanoha: Really? I had…
Hayate: Ahaha, oh no, I just happened to see some really cute girls. Signum’s checking out the bus schedule right now. We’ll be heading home soon.
(Nanoha: So did I! AHAHA~!)
Hayate: I’ll make the Yagami Family special soup for everyone, so just wait for me.

I though she wouldn't be in this since she wasn't credited with her VA.
Spoiler for Guessing spoiler:
Um... Fate and Nanoha get sent back to their timeline with their memory erase?
This track is absurdly short. They could have afforded to put in a bit more story! I wanna hear more Revi and Fate!
Spoiler for Track 7:
Track 7:
Revi: So what do you think after seeing Eltria from the sky?
Fate: Amazing, the desert and fertile soil is mixed together.
Yuri: What you’re seeing over there is back when the ‘dying land’ phenomenon was happening. (note: Shishoku)
Fate: ‘Dying land’?
Revi: We’ve arrived at our destination!
Fate: Hey Yuri, what did you mean by ‘dying land?
Yuri: It’s the term we use when the land begins disintegrate to the point where animals and people can no longer live on it.
Revi: With Amitie and Kyrie, we work to fulfill Professor Grants plan to heal the planet’s sickness.
Yuri: We work hard together for the sake of this planet’s future.
Fate: Amazing, how admirable.
Revi: Now then, for fun, let’s do some work together (alt trans: come and help us out!)
Yuri: The ruins near the villages and towns are full of dangerous monsters/lifeforms you can encounter.
Revi: Dungeon travel and monster hunt!
Yuri: Revi’s a hunt master/expert.
Revi: The dungeon’s entrance is right over there. Let’s go Original and hunt!
Fate: Right, I’ll help/do my best!

This drama cd is not very interesting either. I thought it was, but it just some false dramatics that mislead me. Oh well. It's still more interesting than the movie 2nd A's drama cd... that's just sad.
Spoiler for Track3:
Track 3:
Amitie: Is everyone here?
Kyrie: Florian sisters and…
Yuri: The Purple Sky are all present.
Stern: The falling object is very small. And is not very fast either.
Amitie: We’ve determined the crash site; it shouldn’t cause that much damage if it’s that small and fast.
Kyrie: The outer shell is an mana type emergency protect shield with two human children within it.
Levi: No way, could it be alien invaders?
Dearche: That’s pretty far fetched possibility, it’s probably not.
Stern: Hm, this magical aura…
Amitie: It’s about to land! Everyone, be on your guard!
Levi: Oh~! Rain! Water!
Yuri: How beautiful…
Kyrie: The shield has fractured/failed.
Amitie: Hey are you okay in there?!
Nanoha: Ugh…
Fate: Uh…
Amitie: … This white and blue body armor (literally: protect suit)… No, a barrier jacket?!
Kyrie: There’s another with a black cloak!?
Stern: As I suspected/thought…
Yuri: Nanoha… and Fate?
Levi: Hey ~ Original~~ Takamachi Nanoha~~~!
Amitie: Perhaps they last consciousness/knocked out?
Dearche: Oh for… Let’s go Stern, Levi.
Stern: Yes.
Levi: Yeah.
Nanoha: Ugh? Huh? Wha-?
Fate: Nanoha? Huh, where are we?
Nanoha: We’re on a lake?
Dearche: Really, you troublesome shorty mages. Just how did you get here?
Nanoha: Um…
Stern: In any case, it’s been awhile, Nanoha, Fate.
Fate: Huh? Uh? Huh? The same jacket as Nanoha…
Levi: What are you all confused about, my Original?
Nanoha: Fate-chan? EH!?
Fate: Um, just who are you all?
Dearche: Huh?
Levi: They’ve both gone nuts/weird! Is this when we go ‘ya gotta be kiddin’ me’ to them? (note: tsukkomi and nandeyanen)
Dearche: Was our memory block too strong? I thought we clearly set it up so that it would wear off when they see us again.
Stern: No, there’s something strange about this situation.
Yuri: Everyone~!
Amitie: Nanoha-san! Fate-san!
Kyrie: Long time no see!
Nanoha: Um, I do believe this is the first time we’ve met. I’m Takamachi Nanoha, I’m a third grader from Seishou University Affiliated Private Elementary school.
Fate: I’m Fate Testarossa, I go to the same school too.
Nanoha: We’re both part time mages with the TSAB.
Fate: Have we met you all before?
Amitie: Um, er… Just what is this about?

What happened here is that the Nanoha and Fate from the original universe (early A's by the looks of it, given how they don't mistake Dearche for Hayate) got transported to the GOD universe for lulz and fanservice.
There is apparently three different timelines/alternate universe.
Movie 2nd A's
Original A's
GOD PSP A's
The Nanoha and Fate in this drama cd are from the Movie 2nd A's.
It is not the same Nanoha and Fate from the original anime A's. Nor are they from the GOD PSP universe.
Yeah, it's a bit weird. Apparently in the Original A's, they made a movie in their timeline as technical advisors.
But in another completely different dimension/timeline, the Movie 2nd A's is an actual universe that exists. And they visit the GOD PSP universe.
Spoiler for Track 8:
Track 8:
Kyrie: The two arrived in the morning, and then went out to play. They came back from lunch and went out again. After sunset, just as the night began…
Amitie: Ah, success! I figured out the teleportation location/coordinate point! (Bad translation)
Kyrie: That took a lot of time. Well then, now everything is ready.
Amitie: And everyone just came back too. Now let’s send Nanoha-san and Fate-san home.
Kyrie: Okay, timeline and coordinates have been entered, coordinates are set. (bad translation) Teleportation power levels are stable. Protection levels for transferring object is secure/safe.
Nanoha: I guess this is goodbye then.
Fate: Thanks for taking care of us. Even treating us to dinner.
Nanoha: It was very delicious.
Dearche: But of course.
Levi: But you know, you two can stay for a bit longer. If you do, I can show you even more interesting dungeons. And I haven’t played with Nanoha that much.
Amitie: Levi, they can’t.
Stern: They have things/a mission to do.
Levi: Oh…
Nanoha: Sorry Levi, but I had a lot fun with everyone.
Fate: So did I.
Levi: Well, I had some fun too.
Dearche: I’m sure you’ll see them again one day. Anyways, hurry up and go home.
Yuri: Please do your best when you’re home.
Nanoha: Yeah.
Kyrie: So with some regret, activating transfer device. Pressing button~.
Nanoha: Um, thank you very much.
Fate: We’ll see each other one day…
Stern: Yes.
Nanoha: Thank you too, Dearche.
Fate: Let’s talk more next time we meet.
Dearche: How bothersome/noisy, get lost already.
Kyrie: I’m sure you know by now, but she’s just being shy.
Dearche: Who is? I’ll crush you (under my heel), Peach head!
Nanoha: Ahahaha.
Fate: Well then…
F+N: We’ll see each other ag-…
Stern: They’re gone.
Yuri: It was a bit unusual, but it was very fun.
Levi: It would have been great if you could have meet ‘Little Crow’, eh King?
Dearche: Silence! Just imagining it gives me the shivers/disgusts me.
Yuri: Oh, you… (alt trans: Oh, that again…)
Kyrie: Well then, let’s go back to the house.
L+Y: Okay!
Amitie: It seems we’ll have to prepare greater dimensional timeline prevention measures. It’ll be big trouble if bother another dimension and timeline like that.
Kyrie: Yeah, really.
Yuri: Amitie, Kyrie. I’ll help out too.
Kyrie: Thank you Yuri.
Dearche: Ah, but today has really worn/tired me out. Stern, put on the tea.
Stern: Leave it to me.
Levi: Me and Levi will have it sweet.
Kyrie: Me, too!
Stern: Yes…
Amitie: These are the days we live on the world, Eltria. Joyful times, difficult times, so many things happen. Even today, I record the days of our family’s lives. So that we can leave traces of our memories that we have lived about this world, about this time within the sea of numerous worlds and time. (bad translation)
Stern: Now the tea is done.
All: Thank you.
Dearche: Good.
Amitie: So that we can remember these memories full of smiles/laughter.

Track 6:
Nanoha: Divine~ Buster~!!
Stern: Wonderful, though you’re from a different world, you’re still Nanoha. Aerial combat manoeuvres and shooting skills are sublime.
Nanoha: Really? But I’ve only just started catching up with you. (alt trans: I’m barely able to catch/keep up with you)
Stern: I have three years experience advantage over you and you don't have Raising Heart. That must be where the gap is.
Nanoha: Oh~…
Stern: However, compared to your absolute/overall firepower, I still can’t measure up.
Nanoha: If that’s the case, I’m happy. If I can hit you, I can beat you/shoot you down.
Stern: That attitude truly is Nanoha-like. When you return to your original world, your memories will be sealed/erased but your body will never forget what you learn. To strengthen that shining bright star light that cleaves your path; I will in this battle, in this very moment with all my fiery/burning strength/heart fight you. (Note: Stern, emotionless yet somehow still hotblooded.)
Nanoha: Thank you! Please do, Stern! Accel Shooter!
Stern: Pyro Shooter!
Both: FIRE!

There is apparently three different timelines/alternate universe.
Movie 2nd A's
Original A's

The Nanoha and Fate in this drama cd are from the Movie 2nd A's.
It is not the same Nanoha and Fate from the original anime A's. Nor are they from the GOD PSP universe.
Yeah, it's a bit weird. Apparently in the Original A's, they made a movie in their timeline as technical advisors.
But in another completely different dimension/timeline, the Movie 2nd A's is an actual universe that exists. And they visit the GOD PSP universe.
Meaning, because the Materials can't know these (Movie2nd) N+F's Book of Darkness case will end differently they won't tell how to save Reinfoce.

Good to know, by A's Nanoha learned to fly and manifest her Barrier Jacket without RH.
However, I found strange Nanoha being more powerful magically than Stern.
The GOD crew talk about the their old new friends.
Spoiler for Track 4:
Track 4:
Yuri: Please have some, its Kyrie’s special flower tea.
Nanoha: Oh, thank you.
Fate: Thanks for the tea.
Yuri: Your combat clothing is very gallant, but those clothes are very cute. Is that your school uniform?
Nanoha: Yes, it is.
Fate: Yuri’s clothing is very cute too.
Yuri: Thank you, Amitie personally made it.
Amitie: Why can’t they remember anything about us? Just what is going on?
Kyrie: Perhaps the memory seal was too powerful? Or they come from a time before we encountered them.
Stern: It’s unclear if it’s the former, but the latter is likely. However… there are other possibilities….
Dearche: You’re pretty vague. You’re going to have tell us the details. Explain in a simple enough way that even Levi can understand.
Levi: Stern (Alt trans: Ayup)(bad translation) Please do!
Stern: Did you take a good look at their combat armor? They’re very different from the ones we’re familiar with.
Levi: Now that you mention it. Nanoha had a lot more blue and instead of a ribbon, she’s got a shiny metal part.
Amitie: And Fate’s cloak and clothes are very different too.
Stern: Those two are without a doubt, Takamachi Nanoha and Fate Testarossa but they are not the very same people we’ve met before. They’re a different Nanoha and Fate.
Kyrie: So you’re saying that they’re from a parallel world right?
Stern: Yes.
Levi: I don’t get it.
Stern: They know nothing about us, it’s as if we met them before yet haven’t met them. Well, in any case, they are Nanoha and Fate.
Dearche: Just introduce yourself and give them a basic explanation of the situation, then go and play with them.
Levi: Of, if that’s the case, I can understand that.
Amitie: It’s just that, it seems like the two of them are from just before the Book Of Darkness case or currently going through it.
Kyrie: We’ve got to make sure we don’t indiscriminately disclose any information on it. And it isn’t as if we know if the situation will end the same way it did for us.
Levi: Well, it’s not as if I remember anything about the Book of Darkness case. I doubt we’ll talk about it that much.
Amitie: Even just mentioning the Book of Darkness could be bad. Especially the complicated situation about the Purple Sky.
Yuri: Ah, everyone.
Dearche: Yuri, what’s those two’s situation?
Yuri: It seems that they really are in the middle of the Book of Darkness case. They’ve been attacked by Signum and the others, and are about to start resolving the case. While their devices are undergoing repairs, they decided to do some magic practice when suddenly in the middle of it; they were caught in a small scale dimensional quake. When they woke up, they were here. So it seems.
Amitie: A dimensional quake? You think it’s possible that that dimensional quake brought them here (bad translation)?
Kyrie: It’s likely. Though I don’t understand why they ended up here.
Levi: AH! The treasure I picked up from the ruins! Why’s it thrown out here? It looks like it’s been kicked and has water on it! Who!?
Amitie: Ah, so it was Levi. It was dirtying up the main entrance/door, so I took it outside.
Stern: And I was the one who moved it to the flower bed. Because it was so dirty, I thought I’d give it a wipe.
Kyrie: I wonder who could have kicked it and got water on it. There sure are some terrible people out there.
Levi: It was Kyrie, it was definitely Kyrie.
Amitie: It’s definitely active. Levi, did you get it from the ruins?
Levi: Yeah, I picked it up when I was monster hunting.
Amitie: Could be a type of O-part artifact. (bad translation) For example, it malfunctioned and transferred people to our timeline and dimension.
Kyrie: Are there really dangerous things just laying around like that?
Levi: Oh, I found that on the 125th underground floor of a ruin. It was in some place that looked like a mechanical research lab. It looked it might be useful/good, so I took it.
Dearche: So this was all your fault Levi!
Levi: It’s not my fault! It’s my important duty/task to recover treasures in the ruins!
Yuri: That’s right Dearche, the treasures that Levi’s finds are often useful for research or useful for daily living.
Dearche: That might be true, but it’s irresponsible for leaving it out so carelessly.
Levi: Um, that’s true…
Amitie: Now, now, it’s our fault that it accidentally activated.
Stern: Attempting to ascertain blame/responsibility is a waste of time.
Kyrie: That’s right, we should just try figure out how to solve our current radical problem first.
Dearche: Hey Peach head, you’re unusually magnanimous even as you’re trying to slip out of your own personal responsibility to this situation. (Bad translation)
Kyrie: I wonder what you’re talking about?
Amitie: Me and Kyrie will work on finding out how to send them home. Once we figure out their transfer coordinates, it should be easy to send them back. You understand Kyrie?
Kyrie: Understood. Now then, it’s a rare opportunity, so why don’t you all go and play with them?
Oh yes, if you happen to know where to the Madoka Drama CD 4, that would be great. People are pestering me to translate it but they won't provide links because it's not out yet. Give me a pm if you know a place where I can download it.

Nanoha: The other dimensional/alien planet, Eltria…
Fate: A world that is neither an Administrated or Unadministrated world. But it’s a good place.
Nanoha: And everyone is so kind…
Fate: And it looks like we’ll be able to go home soon, that’s a relief.
Nanoha: If we were to suddenly disappear, everyone would get worried.
Fate: Yeah.
*knock knock*
Yuri: Nanoha, Fate, thanks for waiting.
Stern: Allow me to introduce myself. I am Stern.
Levi: Heya~! And I’m Levi!
Dearche: Dearche.
Nanoha: Um, Dearche-san…?
Fate: Is your hair style a bit different from before?
Dearche: Just a small makeover, nothing to be concerned of.
Nanoha: That looks cute too.
Dearche: Also, stop being so polite. (bad translation) How insulting.
Fate: In that alternate world, were you good friends of our other world selves?
Dearche: The exact opposite, We were conquerors/invaders and the destroyers.
Levi: Well, we did fight each other at first…
Stern: We confronted each other, then teamed up to defeat an enemy. We became sometime rivals, and then finally friends. It was that sort of relationship (alt trans: That’s how it went).
Fate: I see.
Nanoha: That was easy to understand.
Dearche: Don’t up the dynamics of the story that much! And don’t accept it just like that! (Alt trans: don’t just go and understand like that). I don’t know about you two, but We at least do not recall befriending/getting familiar with that ‘little crow’ and you!
Nanoha: Sorry about that but I do kinda understand the story. (note: But of course, it involved befriending Nanoha).
Fate: ‘Little Crow’, could it be that in that other world she was member of our group?
Yuri: Something like that, a gentle girl whose kind heart is like the night sky. (alt trans: a girl whose gentle kind heart is like that night sky)
Nanoha: I see.
Fate: Do you think we’ll meet her in our world?
Yuri: Of course!
Stern: Also, this might be a bit difficult to answer, but I will talk about it. There’s a reason why me and Nanoha, Levi and Fate, in both looks and clothing are very similar to each other
Nanoha: Oh, yeah.
Stern: We are not actually human, due various circumstances, when we needed to take on a human form we copied your appearance and powers/abilities and created our bodies.
Levi: And that’s why we look and wear clothing just like you! Though now we’re pretty much completely different/separate people.
Nanoha: I did notice that our barrier jackets really look alike, but me and Stern… don’t really look that all that similar.
Stern: Yes, when I first met you, I said the same thing. (alt trans: You said the same thing.) (bad translation can't tell you who is referring to who very well)
Nanoha: Yeah, after all, Stern looks way cooler.
Stern: Thank you very much.
Fate: Me and Levi then…
Levi: I’m real energetic and the color of my mana/magic aura is blue (lit: water color), so maybe I’m more like our big sister? Then again someone did say I maybe don’t?
Fate:, Levi is Levi after all.
Levi: Yeah, I am me! That’s why I’m awesome/cool!
Yuri: Dearche, everyone’s getting along great.
Dearche: Excepting Stern, everyone else is a child. (Alt trans; Acting like children)
Yuri: Oh that reminds me… We haven’t had breakfast yet. Why don’t you let them have some of Dearche’s delicious cooking too?
Dearche: Ah, it can’t be helped.
Amitie: I’m sure Nanoha and the others are going to face some very tough times after this, aren’t they?
Kyrie: Yeah, after all, we had heard how terrible/hard the Book of Darkness incident was.
Amitie: To think that we bothered them during that terrible time, I’m so sorry if we made their lives harder.
Kyrie: If that’s the case then, we just need to send them back to their own world and time as soon as possible.
Amitie: Yeah, I’m in full analysis mode with the power of burning blood (lit: nekketsu).
Dearche: Red head, peach head, I’ve prepared breakfast.
Kyrie: Oh, King/Your Majesty… You brought it to us? Where is everyone else?
Dearche: They’ve all gone out to explore. Stern and Nanoha have taken to the skies. Seems like Levi and Yuri are taking Fate to some nearby underground ruins.
Kyrie: Wow, that’s fast.
Amitie: Children are amazing. They’ve become friends so quickly.
Dearche: Truly.
Amitie: You’re not going King/Your majesty? I’m sure Yuri invited you too.
Dearche: When they return, no doubt they’re going to meet ‘little crow’ in that incident. We’ll be sending them back with a memory seal/block but if leave a strong impression on their memory, it might distort the fate of them and ‘little crow’.
Amitie: So that’s why you’ve changed your hair style and taken off your hair accessories?
Dearche: It’s not much but better than nothing.
Amitie: Oh how noble. Your Majesty has become very mature lately!
Kyirie: Our King/Your Majesty is awesome! I’ll give you a nice hug after this~.
Dearche: Stop talking such nonsense! Hurry up and eat so you can start analyzing/working!
K+A = Yes!

Well, Nanoha in GoD said that she never think of Stern as a clone, more of someone with matching Uniform... sounds like it can go ether way. Nanoha said nothing in her route in BoA.
Okay, finished translating all the tracks for Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha GOD Sound Stage M
The first track is way too dramatic for this sound stage. It is seriously misleading.
Spoiler for Track 1:
The planet Eltria, the sole planet in the galaxy that possessed the necessary water to support life. It is the only planet that we know of that held any life at all. (bad translation: 「同一星系内では 唯一水と生命が誕生した星で、私たちが知る範囲では生きとし生けるもの全の故郷である大 地」)
Since the birth of this planet, humans have made their many marks of history upon it. The long cycle of years, its growth and waning (ie swells and ebbing), repeatedly regenerating itself. Then, about a millennia ago, the planet was struck with an endless decline (ie disease).
The water and earth decayed, and finally dried out (ie became desert). The land erosion phenomenon “Dying Land” (alt trans: Desertification).
Some theorized it was due to widespread destructive human-made actions, others theorized it was sign of the natural end of the planet. (bad translation) There are many theories, but the truth/true cause is still unknown.
However, five hundred years ago, outer space travel and exploration began, with it the search for and creation of colonisable planets. Out there they fortunately discovered a number of livable planets. And so people began to abandon their homes and migrated to other planets. Though most of humanity left the planet, the disease ravaging it continued. The remaining members of humanity gathered in a few safe zones avoid the ‘Dying Land’ (desertification) and attacks from dangerous lifeforms, could only live out their lives in peace/quietly.
But, during that era, a certain scientist was born. Professor Grants Florian, he wanted to save the planet from the disease and restore the planet to its formerly lush and fertile self. So he committed himself to research and experiments to heal it.
Excavating and analyzing ancient technology, manufacturing and developing the “Gears” technology. This was his life work. He attempted to save the planet. I have recorded all his research/discoveries and inherited his dedication/desire for saving the planet (bad translation).
Even during the loneliest days of his research, he always cheerful and gentle to us. To my younger sister and me, he was our most important person. I know that our professor, our father would want future generations to know all that we did.
And so, I have also made records of the happiness around us and the occasionally mysterious events that happen to us as well.

Kyrie: No. 4 is activated. Water level at 27. Negligible turbidity/cloudiness and levels of impurity. Adequate/satisfactory percentage of minerals. Ah, hm, and it tastes great. This is good water. Well then, hello little lawn flowers, just wait for me. I’ll give you your morning watering. OWIE! Oh, who left this weird machine out here?! Actually, just what is this thing? Never seen this machine before. Now that I look at it, it’s pretty rusty/beat up. Oh well. I’ll ask everyone about it later.
Dearche: Stern, put this in the salad bowl.
Stern: Yes, Dearche.
Dearche: Hm.
Stern: Today’s breakfast looks grand.
Dearche: But of course, who do you think We are?
Stern: Our king and our great cooking genius, Load Dearche.
Dearche: You understand well, good. Well then, it’s almost done. Go and awaken Revi and Yuri.
Stern: Oh, if that’s your orders then…
Revi: Good mornin’…
Yuri: Good morning…
Stern: Good morning, Yuri, Revi.
Dearche: It’s unusual to see you waking up on your own like this.
Revi: I could smell curry soup…
Yuri: That would wake anyone up…
Stern: As I had suspected.
Dearche: Go and wash your face you two. It’ll be ready for you right when you’re done.
R+Y: Yes.
Revi: The King’s soup, the curry soup~
Yuri: I look forward to it.
Dearche: Hm, that reminds me, where’ Amitie?
Stern: I have not seen her this morning. Perhaps she’s at the Professor’s place?
Dearche: When you goes there, she often forgets the time. Stern…
Stern: Yes, I’ll go and get her.
Amitie: Today’s a good day Professor. Can you smell it? It’s the King’s special curry soup, Professor. I’m sure Yuri and Revi are overjoyed, after all, it’s really delicious. The King, Stern, Revi and Yuri, it’s been awhile since the Purple Sky arrived but every day with them is so wonderful/interesting. Today, just like yesterday, everyone is working hard to steadily improve Eltria’s future. Please watch over us from heaven, Professor. Well then, I’ve gotta get back. If we aren’t all at the dinner table for meals, the King will get angry.
Stern: Amitie…
Amitie: Ah Stern?
Stern: My apologies, were you still talking to the Professor?
Amitie: Oh no, I just finished our talk. Ah, oh no, I’m so sorry. You came to get me didn’t you?
Stern: No, there are still one more seasoning/herb/spice that’s needed for the soup.
Amitie: Oh, if that’s the case, it’s this right? I went and picked it.
Stern: Wonderful.
Amitie: Well then, let’s head back.
Stern: So what were you talking about with the Professor today?
Amitie: That it’s been a long time since the King and everyone arrived and such. And how we’re going to keep working hard/do our best, nothing too important.
Stern: I see, this planet has long since become our home/homeland.
Amitie: Yes.
Stern: I’m truly grateful/thankful that the Professor and you sisters first accepted us and finally the people of this land have warmly welcomed us.
Amitie: But of course, you’re all working for the sake of the people of this planet.
Stern: If tell that to our King, she’d get very embarrassed, or rather get very angry.
Amitie: That’s true; the King would insist she’s here to rule/conquer/invade, not ‘help’.
Stern: I am truly thankful that you and the people of this planet truly understand our King.
Amitie: Everyone in the Purple Sky are all wonderful people. But… it seems so long ago, where we all met.
Stern: You mean, Earth’s Uminari City?
Amitie: Yeah, that place where those gentle/kind mages live. You especially want to go and see Nanoha-san right?
Stern: That’s true, I cannot deny that sentiment. And though we are separated greatly in both distance and time. (alt trans: by unfathomable distances and time) I get the feeling that we shall met again one day.
Amitie: I know…
Stern: Oh!
Amitie: Stern?
Stern: Amitie, look up in the sky, can you see it?
Amitie: See what?
Revi: The water’s so warm. It’s almost time for spring (alt trans: it’s getting warmer)!
Yuri: Yes, and I’m sure this year the fields and flowers will bloom more than the last one. Here you go Revi. A towel.
Revi: Ah, thank you. Oh~, a freshly laundered towel. It’s so fluffy! Huh?
Yuri: Oh.
Revi: Hey Yuri, over there in the sky.
Yuri: Huh? That’s… a falling star? It seems like something’s falling.
Revi: Could it be…a comet/meteor?
Kyrie: Lock on.
Dearche: What is going on?
Kyrie: Amitie, everyone, there’s an unidentified object coming down from the atmosphere/sky. There’s a village close by, so please hurry over there. Evacuate and protect/safeguard.
All: Yes ma’am.
Kyrie: We better go as well King/Your Majesty.
Dearche: Yes, as if We would allow a comet to destroy all our hard work/newly conquered land so easily. (alt trans: destroy the lands we plan on conquering/invading)
Track 3:
Amitie: Is everyone here?
Kyrie: Florian sisters and…
Yuri: The Purple Sky are all present.
Stern: The falling object is very small. And is not very fast either.
Amitie: We’ve determined the crash site; it shouldn’t cause that much damage if it’s that small and fast.
Kyrie: The outer shell is an mana type emergency protect shield with two human children within it.
Levi: No way, could it be alien invaders?
Dearche: That’s pretty far fetched possibility, it’s probably not.
Stern: Hm, this magical aura…
Amitie: It’s about to land! Everyone, be on your guard!
Levi: Oh~! Rain! Water!
Yuri: How beautiful…
Kyrie: The shield has fractured/failed.
Amitie: Hey are you okay in there?!
Nanoha: Ugh…
Fate: Uh…
Amitie: … This white and blue body armor (literally: protect suit)… No, a barrier jacket?!
Kyrie: There’s another with a black cloak!?
Stern: As I suspected/thought…
Yuri: Nanoha… and Fate?
Levi: Hey ~ Original~~ Takamachi Nanoha~~~!
Amitie: Perhaps they last consciousness/knocked out?
Dearche: Oh for… Let’s go Stern, Levi.
Stern: Yes.
Levi: Yeah.
Nanoha: Ugh? Huh? Wha-?
Fate: Nanoha? Huh, where are we?
Nanoha: We’re on a lake?
Dearche: Really, you troublesome shorty mages. Just how did you get here?
Nanoha: Um…
Stern: In any case, it’s been awhile, Nanoha, Fate.
Fate: Huh? Uh? Huh? The same jacket as Nanoha…
Levi: What are you all confused about, my Original?
Nanoha: Fate-chan? EH!?
Fate: Um, just who are you all?
Dearche: Huh?
Levi: They’ve both gone nuts/weird! Is this when we go ‘ya gotta be kiddin’ me’ to them? (note: tsukkomi and nandeyanen)
Dearche: Was our memory block too strong? I thought we clearly set it up so that it would wear off when they see us again.
Stern: No, there’s something strange about this situation.
Yuri: Everyone~!
Amitie: Nanoha-san! Fate-san!
Kyrie: Long time no see!
Nanoha: Um, I do believe this is the first time we’ve met. I’m Takamachi Nanoha, I’m a third grader from Seishou University Affiliated Private Elementary school.
Fate: I’m Fate Testarossa, I go to the same school too.
Nanoha: We’re both part time mages with the TSAB.
Fate: Have we met you all before?
Amitie: Um, er… Just what is this about?
Track 4:
Yuri: Please have some, its Kyrie’s special flower tea.
Nanoha: Oh, thank you.
Fate: Thanks for the tea.
Yuri: Your combat clothing is very gallant, but those clothes are very cute. Is that your school uniform?
Nanoha: Yes, it is.
Fate: Yuri’s clothing is very cute too.
Yuri: Thank you, Amitie personally made it.
Amitie: Why can’t they remember anything about us? Just what is going on?
Kyrie: Perhaps the memory seal was too powerful? Or they come from a time before we encountered them.
Stern: It’s unclear if it’s the former, but the latter is likely. However… there are other possibilities….
Dearche: You’re pretty vague. You’re going to have tell us the details. Explain in a simple enough way that even Levi can understand.
Levi: Stern (Alt trans: Ayup)(bad translation) Please do!
Stern: Did you take a good look at their combat armor? They’re very different from the ones we’re familiar with.
Levi: Now that you mention it. Nanoha had a lot more blue and instead of a ribbon, she’s got a shiny metal part.
Amitie: And Fate’s cloak and clothes are very different too.
Stern: Those two are without a doubt, Takamachi Nanoha and Fate Testarossa but they are not the very same people we’ve met before. They’re a different Nanoha and Fate.
Kyrie: So you’re saying that they’re from a parallel world right?
Stern: Yes.
Levi: I don’t get it.
Stern: They know nothing about us, it’s as if we met them before yet haven’t met them. Well, in any case, they are Nanoha and Fate.
Dearche: Just introduce yourself and give them a basic explanation of the situation, then go and play with them.
Levi: Of, if that’s the case, I can understand that.
Amitie: It’s just that, it seems like the two of them are from just before the Book Of Darkness case or currently going through it.
Kyrie: We’ve got to make sure we don’t indiscriminately disclose any information on it. And it isn’t as if we know if the situation will end the same way it did for us.
Levi: Well, it’s not as if I remember anything about the Book of Darkness case. I doubt we’ll talk about it that much.
Amitie: Even just mentioning the Book of Darkness could be bad. Especially the complicated situation about the Purple Sky.
Yuri: Ah, everyone.
Dearche: Yuri, what’s those two’s situation?
Yuri: It seems that they really are in the middle of the Book of Darkness case. They’ve been attacked by Signum and the others, and are about to start resolving the case. While their devices are undergoing repairs, they decided to do some magic practice when suddenly in the middle of it; they were caught in a small scale dimensional quake. When they woke up, they were here. So it seems.
Amitie: A dimensional quake? You think it’s possible that that dimensional quake brought them here (bad translation)?
Kyrie: It’s likely. Though I don’t understand why they ended up here.
Levi: AH! The treasure I picked up from the ruins! Why’s it thrown out here? It looks like it’s been kicked and has water on it! Who!?
Amitie: Ah, so it was Levi. It was dirtying up the main entrance/door, so I took it outside.
Stern: And I was the one who moved it to the flower bed. Because it was so dirty, I thought I’d give it a wipe.
Kyrie: I wonder who could have kicked it and got water on it. There sure are some terrible people out there.
Levi: It was Kyrie, it was definitely Kyrie.
Amitie: It’s definitely active. Levi, did you get it from the ruins?
Levi: Yeah, I picked it up when I was monster hunting.
Amitie: Could be a type of O-part artifact. (bad translation) For example, it malfunctioned and transferred people to our timeline and dimension.
Kyrie: Are there really dangerous things just laying around like that?
Levi: Oh, I found that on the 125th underground floor of a ruin. It was in some place that looked like a mechanical research lab. It looked it might be useful/good, so I took it.
Dearche: So this was all your fault Levi!
Levi: It’s not my fault! It’s my important duty/task to recover treasures in the ruins!
Yuri: That’s right Dearche, the treasures that Levi’s finds are often useful for research or useful for daily living.
Dearche: That might be true, but it’s irresponsible for leaving it out so carelessly.
Levi: Um, that’s true…
Amitie: Now, now, it’s our fault that it accidentally activated.
Stern: Attempting to ascertain blame/responsibility is a waste of time.
Kyrie: That’s right, we should just try figure out how to solve our current radical problem first.
Dearche: Hey Peach head, you’re unusually magnanimous even as you’re trying to slip out of your own personal responsibility to this situation. (Bad translation)
Kyrie: I wonder what you’re talking about?
Amitie: Me and Kyrie will work on finding out how to send them home. Once we figure out their transfer coordinates, it should be easy to send them back. You understand Kyrie?
Kyrie: Understood. Now then, it’s a rare opportunity, so why don’t you all go and play with them?
Track 5:
Nanoha: The other dimensional/alien planet, Eltria…
Fate: A world that is neither an Administrated or Unadministrated world. But it’s a good place.
Nanoha: And everyone is so kind…
Fate: And it looks like we’ll be able to go home soon, that’s a relief.
Nanoha: If we were to suddenly disappear, everyone would get worried.
Fate: Yeah.
*knock knock*
Yuri: Nanoha, Fate, thanks for waiting.
Stern: Allow me to introduce myself. I am Stern.
Levi: Heya~! And I’m Levi!
Dearche: Dearche.
Nanoha: Um, Dearche-san…?
Fate: Is your hair style a bit different from before?
Dearche: Just a small makeover, nothing to be concerned of.
Nanoha: That looks cute too.
Dearche: Also, stop being so polite. (bad translation) How insulting.
Fate: In that alternate world, were you good friends of our other world selves?
Dearche: The exact opposite, We were conquerors/invaders and the destroyers.
Levi: Well, we did fight each other at first…
Stern: We confronted each other, then teamed up to defeat an enemy. We became sometime rivals, and then finally friends. It was that sort of relationship (alt trans: That’s how it went).
Fate: I see.
Nanoha: That was easy to understand.
Dearche: Don’t up the dynamics of the story that much! And don’t accept it just like that! (Alt trans: don’t just go and understand like that). I don’t know about you two, but We at least do not recall befriending/getting familiar with that ‘little crow’ and you!
Nanoha: Sorry about that but I do kinda understand the story. (note: But of course, it involved befriending Nanoha).
Fate: ‘Little Crow’, could it be that in that other world she was member of our group?
Yuri: Something like that, a gentle girl whose kind heart is like the night sky. (alt trans: a girl whose gentle kind heart is like that night sky)
Nanoha: I see.
Fate: Do you think we’ll meet her in our world?
Yuri: Of course!
Stern: Also, this might be a bit difficult to answer, but I will talk about it. There’s a reason why me and Nanoha, Levi and Fate, in both looks and clothing are very similar to each other
Nanoha: Oh, yeah.
Stern: We are not actually human, due various circumstances, when we needed to take on a human form we copied your appearance and powers/abilities and created our bodies.
Levi: And that’s why we look and wear clothing just like you! Though now we’re pretty much completely different/separate people.
Nanoha: I did notice that our barrier jackets really look alike, but me and Stern… don’t really look that all that similar.
Stern: Yes, when I first met you, I said the same thing. (alt trans: You said the same thing.) (bad translation can't tell you who is referring to who very well)
Nanoha: Yeah, after all, Stern looks way cooler.
Stern: Thank you very much.
Fate: Me and Levi then…
Levi: I’m real energetic and the color of my mana/magic aura is blue (lit: water color), so maybe I’m more like our big sister? Then again someone did say I maybe don’t?
Fate:, Levi is Levi after all.
Levi: Yeah, I am me! That’s why I’m awesome/cool!
Yuri: Dearche, everyone’s getting along great.
Dearche: Excepting Stern, everyone else is a child. (Alt trans; Acting like children)
Yuri: Oh that reminds me… We haven’t had breakfast yet. Why don’t you let them have some of Dearche’s delicious cooking too?
Dearche: Ah, it can’t be helped.
Amitie: I’m sure Nanoha and the others are going to face some very tough times after this, aren’t they?
Kyrie: Yeah, after all, we had heard how terrible/hard the Book of Darkness incident was.
Amitie: To think that we bothered them during that terrible time, I’m so sorry if we made their lives harder.
Kyrie: If that’s the case then, we just need to send them back to their own world and time as soon as possible.
Amitie: Yeah, I’m in full analysis mode with the power of burning blood (lit: nekketsu).
Dearche: Red head, peach head, I’ve prepared breakfast.
Kyrie: Oh, King/Your Majesty… You brought it to us? Where is everyone else?
Dearche: They’ve all gone out to explore. Stern and Nanoha have taken to the skies. Seems like Levi and Yuri are taking Fate to some nearby underground ruins.
Kyrie: Wow, that’s fast.
Amitie: Children are amazing. They’ve become friends so quickly.
Dearche: Truly.
Amitie: You’re not going King/Your majesty? I’m sure Yuri invited you too.
Dearche: When they return, no doubt they’re going to meet ‘little crow’ in that incident. We’ll be sending them back with a memory seal/block but if leave a strong impression on their memory, it might distort the fate of them and ‘little crow’.
Amitie: So that’s why you’ve changed your hair style and taken off your hair accessories?
Dearche: It’s not much but better than nothing.
Amitie: Oh how noble. Your Majesty has become very mature lately!
Kyirie: Our King/Your Majesty is awesome! I’ll give you a nice hug after this~.
Dearche: Stop talking such nonsense! Hurry up and eat so you can start analyzing/working!
K+A = Yes!
Track 6:
Nanoha: Divine~ Buster~!!
Stern: Wonderful, though you’re from a different world, you’re still Nanoha. Aerial combat manoeuvres and shooting skills are sublime.
Nanoha: Really? But I’ve only just started catching up with you. (alt trans: I’m barely able to catch/keep up with you)
Stern: I have three years experience advantage over you and you don't have Raising Heart. That must be where the gap is.
Nanoha: Oh~…
Stern: However, compared to your absolute/overall firepower, I still can’t measure up.
Nanoha: If that’s the case, I’m happy. If I can hit you, I can beat you/shoot you down.
Stern: That attitude truly is Nanoha-like. When you return to your original world, your memories will be sealed/erased but your body will never forget what you learn. To strengthen that shining bright star light that cleaves your path; I will in this battle, in this very moment with all my fiery/burning strength/heart fight you. (Note: Stern, emotionless yet somehow still hotblooded.)
Nanoha: Thank you! Please do, Stern! Accel Shooter!
Stern: Pyro Shooter!
Both: FIRE!
Track 7:
Revi: So what do you think after seeing Eltria from the sky?
Fate: Amazing, the desert and fertile soil is mixed together.
Yuri: What you’re seeing over there is back when the ‘dying land’ phenomenon was happening. (note: Shishoku)
Fate: ‘Dying land’?
Revi: We’ve arrived at our destination!
Fate: Hey Yuri, what did you mean by ‘dying land?
Yuri: It’s the term we use when the land begins disintegrate to the point where animals and people can no longer live on it.
Revi: With Amitie and Kyrie, we work to fulfill Professor Grants plan to heal the planet’s sickness.
Yuri: We work hard together for the sake of this planet’s future.
Fate: Amazing, how admirable.
Revi: Now then, for fun, let’s do some work together (alt trans: come and help us out!)
Yuri: In the ruins near the villages and towns are full of dangerous monsters/lifeforms you can encounter.
Revi: Dungeon travel and monster hunt!
Yuri: Revi’s a hunt master/expert.
Revi: The dungeon’s entrance is right over there. Let’s go Original and hunt!
Fate: Right, I’ll help/do my best!
Track 8:
Kyrie: The two arrived in the morning, and then went out to play. They came back from lunch and went out again. After sunset, just as the night began…
Amitie: Ah, success! I figured out the teleportation location/coordinate point! (Bad translation)
Kyrie: That took a lot of time. Well then, now everything is ready.
Amitie: And everyone just came back too. Now let’s send Nanoha-san and Fate-san home.
Kyrie: Okay, timeline and coordinates have been entered, coordinates are set. (bad translation) Teleportation power levels are stable. Protection levels for transferring object is secure/safe.
Nanoha: I guess this is goodbye then.
Fate: Thanks for taking care of us. Even treating us to dinner.
Nanoha: It was very delicious.
Dearche: But of course.
Levi: But you know, you two can stay for a bit longer. If you do, I can show you even more interesting dungeons. And I haven’t played with Nanoha that much.
Amitie: Levi, they can’t.
Stern: They have things/a mission to do.
Levi: Oh…
Nanoha: Sorry Levi, but I had a lot fun with everyone.
Fate: So did I.
Levi: Well, I had some fun too.
Dearche: I’m sure you’ll see them again one day. Anyways, hurry up and go home.
Yuri: Please do your best when you’re home.
Nanoha: Yeah.
Kyrie: So with some regret, activating transfer device. Pressing button~.
Nanoha: Um, thank you very much.
Fate: We’ll see each other one day…
Stern: Yes.
Nanoha: Thank you too, Dearche.
Fate: Let’s talk more next time we meet.
Dearche: How bothersome/noisy, get lost already.
Kyrie: I’m sure you know by now, but she’s just being shy.
Dearche: Who is? I’ll crush you (under my heel), Peach head!
Nanoha: Ahahaha.
Fate: Well then…
F+N: We’ll see each other ag-…
Stern: They’re gone.
Yuri: It was a bit unusual, but it was very fun.
Levi: It would have been great if you could have meet ‘Little Crow’, eh King?
Dearche: Silence! Just imagining it gives me the shivers/disgusts me.
Yuri: Oh, you… (alt trans: Oh, that again…)
Kyrie: Well then, let’s go back to the house.
L+Y: Okay!
Amitie: It seems we’ll have to prepare greater dimensional timeline prevention measures. It’ll be big trouble if bother another dimension and timeline like that.
Kyrie: Yeah, really.
Yuri: Amitie, Kyrie. I’ll help out too.
Kyrie: Thank you Yuri.
Dearche: Ah, but today has really worn/tired me out. Stern, put on the tea.
Stern: Leave it to me.
Levi: Me and Levi will have it sweet.
Kyrie: Me, too!
Stern: Yes…
Amitie: These are the days we live on the world, Eltria. Joyful times, difficult times, so many things happen. Even today, I record the days of our family’s lives. So that we can leave traces of our memories that we have lived about this world, about this time within the sea of numerous worlds and time. (bad translation)
Stern: Now the tea is done.
All: Thank you.
Dearche: Good.
Amitie: So that we can remember these memories full of smiles/laughter.
Track 9:
Nanoha: Huh?
Fate: Nanoha?
Nanoha: Fate-chan? What were we just doing?
Fate: Um. After school we decided to practice in the hills… Huh? Why are we in the park?
Nanoha: We’ve had a lot on our minds, so we both weren’t really paying attention?
Fate: That sounds like it, but it feels like I had a pleasant dream though.
Nanoha: Oh, so do I.
Fate: Um, anyways, let’s head home for now.
Nanoha: What sort of dream did you have Fate-chan?
Fate: Um, it was some ruins which I explored with friends.
Nanoha: Really? I had…
Hayate: Ahaha, oh no, I just happened to meet some really cute girls. Signum’s checking out the bus schedule right now. We’ll be heading home soon.
(Nanoha: So did I! AHAHA~!)
Hayate: I’ll make the Yagami Family special soup for everyone, so just wait for me.

Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha GOD Sound Stage M
Title: Under the skies of Eltria (alt trans: Under the Eltrian Sky)
Spoiler for Complete tracks:
Track 1:
The planet Eltria, the sole planet in the galaxy that possessed the necessary water to support life. It is the only planet that we know of that held any life at all. (bad translation: 「同一星系内では 唯一水と生命が誕生した星で、私たちが知る範囲では生きとし生けるもの全の故郷である大 地」)
Since the birth of this planet, humans have made their many marks of history upon it. The long cycle of years, its growth and waning (ie swells and ebbing), repeatedly regenerating itself. Then, about a millennia ago, the planet was struck with an endless decline (ie disease).
The water and earth decayed, and finally dried out (ie became desert). The land erosion phenomenon “Dying Land” (alt trans: Desertification).
Some theorized it was due to widespread destructive human-made actions, others theorized it was sign of the natural end of the planet. (bad translation) There are many theories, but the truth/true cause is still unknown.
However, five hundred years ago, outer space travel and exploration began, with it the search for and creation of colonisable planets. Out there they fortunately discovered a number of livable planets. And so people began to abandon their homes and migrated to other planets. Though most of humanity left the planet, the disease ravaging it continued. The remaining members of humanity gathered in a few safe zones avoid the ‘Dying Land’ (desertification) and attacks from dangerous lifeforms, could only live out their lives in peace/quietly.
But, during that era, a certain scientist was born. Professor Grants Florian, he wanted to save the planet from the disease and restore the planet to its formerly lush and fertile self. So he committed himself to research and experiments to heal it.
Excavating and analyzing ancient technology, manufacturing and developing the “Gears” technology. This was his life work. He attempted to save the planet. I have recorded all his research/discoveries and inherited his dedication/desire for saving the planet (bad translation).
Even during the loneliest days of his research, he always cheerful and gentle to us. To my younger sister and me, he was our most important person. I know that our professor, our father would want future generations to know all that we did.
And so, I have also made records of the happiness around us and the occasionally mysterious events that happen to us as well.
Track 2:
Kyrie: No. 4 is activated. Water level at 27. Negligible turbidity/cloudiness and levels of impurity. Adequate/satisfactory percentage of minerals. Ah, hm, and it tastes great. This is good water. Well then, hello little lawn flowers, just wait for me. I’ll give you your morning watering. OWIE! Oh, who left this weird machine out here?! Actually, just what is this thing? Never seen this machine before. Now that I look at it, it’s pretty rusty/beat up. Oh well. I’ll ask everyone about it later.
Dearche: Stern, put this in the salad bowl.
Stern: Yes, Dearche.
Dearche: Hm.
Stern: Today’s breakfast looks grand.
Dearche: But of course, who do you think We are?
Stern: Our king and our great cooking genius, Load Dearche.
Dearche: You understand well, good. Well then, it’s almost done. Go and awaken Revi and Yuri.
Stern: Oh, if that’s your orders then…
Revi: Good mornin’…
Yuri: Good morning…
Stern: Good morning, Yuri, Revi.
Dearche: It’s unusual to see you waking up on your own like this.
Revi: I could smell curry soup…
Yuri: That would wake anyone up…
Stern: As I had suspected.
Dearche: Go and wash your face you two. It’ll be ready for you right when you’re done.
R+Y: Yes.
Revi: The King’s soup, the curry soup~
Yuri: I look forward to it.
Dearche: Hm, that reminds me, where’ Amitie?
Stern: I have not seen her this morning. Perhaps she’s at the Professor’s place?
Dearche: When you goes there, she often forgets the time. Stern…
Stern: Yes, I’ll go and get her.
Amitie: Today’s a good day Professor. Can you smell it? It’s the King’s special curry soup, Professor. I’m sure Yuri and Revi are overjoyed, after all, it’s really delicious. The King, Stern, Revi and Yuri, it’s been awhile since the Purple Sky arrived but every day with them is so wonderful/interesting. Today, just like yesterday, everyone is working hard to steadily improve Eltria’s future. Please watch over us from heaven, Professor. Well then, I’ve gotta get back. If we aren’t all at the dinner table for meals, the King will get angry.
Stern: Amitie…
Amitie: Ah Stern?
Stern: My apologies, were you still talking to the Professor?
Amitie: Oh no, I just finished our talk. Ah, oh no, I’m so sorry. You came to get me didn’t you?
Stern: No, there are still one more seasoning/herb/spice that’s needed for the soup.
Amitie: Oh, if that’s the case, it’s this right? I went and picked it.
Stern: Wonderful.
Amitie: Well then, let’s head back.
Stern: So what were you talking about with the Professor today?
Amitie: That it’s been a long time since the King and everyone arrived and such. And how we’re going to keep working hard/do our best, nothing too important.
Stern: I see, this planet has long since become our home/homeland.
Amitie: Yes.
Stern: I’m truly grateful/thankful that the Professor and you sisters first accepted us and finally the people of this land have warmly welcomed us.
Amitie: But of course, you’re all working for the sake of the people of this planet.
Stern: If tell that to our King, she’d get very embarrassed, or rather get very angry.
Amitie: That’s true; the King would insist she’s here to rule/conquer/invade, not ‘help’.
Stern: I am truly thankful that you and the people of this planet truly understand our King.
Amitie: Everyone in the Purple Sky are all wonderful people. But… it seems so long ago, where we all met.
Stern: You mean, Earth’s Uminari City?
Amitie: Yeah, that place where those gentle/kind mages live. You especially want to go and see Nanoha-san right?
Stern: That’s true, I cannot deny that sentiment. And though we are separated greatly in both distance and time. (alt trans: by unfathomable distances and time) I get the feeling that we shall met again one day.
Amitie: I know…
Stern: Oh!
Amitie: Stern?
Stern: Amitie, look up in the sky, can you see it?
Amitie: See what?
Revi: The water’s so warm. It’s almost time for spring (alt trans: it’s getting warmer)!
Yuri: Yes, and I’m sure this year the fields and flowers will bloom more than the last one. Here you go Revi. A towel.
Revi: Ah, thank you. Oh~, a freshly laundered towel. It’s so fluffy! Huh?
Yuri: Oh.
Revi: Hey Yuri, over there in the sky.
Yuri: Huh? That’s… a falling star? It seems like something’s falling.
Revi: Could it be…a comet/meteor?
Kyrie: Lock on.
Dearche: What is going on?
Kyrie: Amitie, everyone, there’s an unidentified object coming down from the atmosphere/sky. There’s a village close by, so please hurry over there. Evacuate and protect/safeguard.
All: Yes ma’am.
Kyrie: We better go as well King/Your Majesty.
Dearche: Yes, as if We would allow a comet to destroy all our hard work/newly conquered land so easily. (alt trans: destroy the lands we plan on conquering/invading)
Track 3:
Amitie: Is everyone here?
Kyrie: Florian sisters and…
Yuri: The Purple Sky are all present.
Stern: The falling object is very small. And is not very fast either.
Amitie: We’ve determined the crash site; it shouldn’t cause that much damage if it’s that small and fast.
Kyrie: The outer shell is an mana type emergency protect shield with two human children within it.
Levi: No way, could it be alien invaders?
Dearche: That’s pretty far fetched possibility, it’s probably not.
Stern: Hm, this magical aura…
Amitie: It’s about to land! Everyone, be on your guard!
Levi: Oh~! Rain! Water!
Yuri: How beautiful…
Kyrie: The shield has fractured/failed.
Amitie: Hey are you okay in there?!
Nanoha: Ugh…
Fate: Uh…
Amitie: … This white and blue body armor (literally: protect suit)… No, a barrier jacket?!
Kyrie: There’s another with a black cloak!?
Stern: As I suspected/thought…
Yuri: Nanoha… and Fate?
Levi: Hey ~ Original~~ Takamachi Nanoha~~~!
Amitie: Perhaps they last consciousness/knocked out?
Dearche: Oh for… Let’s go Stern, Levi.
Stern: Yes.
Levi: Yeah.
Nanoha: Ugh? Huh? Wha-?
Fate: Nanoha? Huh, where are we?
Nanoha: We’re on a lake?
Dearche: Really, you troublesome shorty mages. Just how did you get here?
Nanoha: Um…
Stern: In any case, it’s been awhile, Nanoha, Fate.
Fate: Huh? Uh? Huh? The same jacket as Nanoha…
Levi: What are you all confused about, my Original?
Nanoha: Fate-chan? EH!?
Fate: Um, just who are you all?
Dearche: Huh?
Levi: They’ve both gone nuts/weird! Is this when we go ‘ya gotta be kiddin’ me’ to them? (note: tsukkomi and nandeyanen)
Dearche: Was our memory block too strong? I thought we clearly set it up so that it would wear off when they see us again.
Stern: No, there’s something strange about this situation.
Yuri: Everyone~!
Amitie: Nanoha-san! Fate-san!
Kyrie: Long time no see!
Nanoha: Um, I do believe this is the first time we’ve met. I’m Takamachi Nanoha, I’m a third grader from Seishou University Affiliated Private Elementary school.
Fate: I’m Fate Testarossa, I go to the same school too.
Nanoha: We’re both part time mages with the TSAB.
Fate: Have we met you all before?
Amitie: Um, er… Just what is this about?
Track 4:
Yuri: Please have some, its Kyrie’s special flower tea.
Nanoha: Oh, thank you.
Fate: Thanks for the tea.
Yuri: Your combat clothing is very gallant, but those clothes are very cute. Is that your school uniform?
Nanoha: Yes, it is.
Fate: Yuri’s clothing is very cute too.
Yuri: Thank you, Amitie personally made it.
Amitie: Why can’t they remember anything about us? Just what is going on?
Kyrie: Perhaps the memory seal was too powerful? Or they come from a time before we encountered them.
Stern: It’s unclear if it’s the former, but the latter is likely. However… there are other possibilities….
Dearche: You’re pretty vague. You’re going to have tell us the details. Explain in a simple enough way that even Levi can understand.
Levi: Stern (Alt trans: Ayup)(bad translation) Please do!
Stern: Did you take a good look at their combat armor? They’re very different from the ones we’re familiar with.
Levi: Now that you mention it. Nanoha had a lot more blue and instead of a ribbon, she’s got a shiny metal part.
Amitie: And Fate’s cloak and clothes are very different too.
Stern: Those two are without a doubt, Takamachi Nanoha and Fate Testarossa but they are not the very same people we’ve met before. They’re a different Nanoha and Fate.
Kyrie: So you’re saying that they’re from a parallel world right?
Stern: Yes.
Levi: I don’t get it.
Stern: They know nothing about us, it’s as if we met them before yet haven’t met them. Well, in any case, they are Nanoha and Fate.
Dearche: Just introduce yourself and give them a basic explanation of the situation, then go and play with them.
Levi: Of, if that’s the case, I can understand that.
Amitie: It’s just that, it seems like the two of them are from just before the Book Of Darkness case or currently going through it.
Kyrie: We’ve got to make sure we don’t indiscriminately disclose any information on it. And it isn’t as if we know if the situation will end the same way it did for us.
Levi: Well, it’s not as if I remember anything about the Book of Darkness case. I doubt we’ll talk about it that much.
Amitie: Even just mentioning the Book of Darkness could be bad. Especially the complicated situation about the Purple Sky.
Yuri: Ah, everyone.
Dearche: Yuri, what’s those two’s situation?
Yuri: It seems that they really are in the middle of the Book of Darkness case. They’ve been attacked by Signum and the others, and are about to start resolving the case. While their devices are undergoing repairs, they decided to do some magic practice when suddenly in the middle of it; they were caught in a small scale dimensional quake. When they woke up, they were here. So it seems.
Amitie: A dimensional quake? You think it’s possible that that dimensional quake brought them here (bad translation)?
Kyrie: It’s likely. Though I don’t understand why they ended up here.
Levi: AH! The treasure I picked up from the ruins! Why’s it thrown out here? It looks like it’s been kicked and has water on it! Who!?
Amitie: Ah, so it was Levi. It was dirtying up the main entrance/door, so I took it outside.
Stern: And I was the one who moved it to the flower bed. Because it was so dirty, I thought I’d give it a wipe.
Kyrie: I wonder who could have kicked it and got water on it. There sure are some terrible people out there.
Levi: It was Kyrie, it was definitely Kyrie.
Amitie: It’s definitely active. Levi, did you get it from the ruins?
Levi: Yeah, I picked it up when I was monster hunting.
Amitie: Could be a type of O-part artifact. (bad translation) For example, it malfunctioned and transferred people to our timeline and dimension.
Kyrie: Are there really dangerous things just laying around like that?
Levi: Oh, I found that on the 125th underground floor of a ruin. It was in some place that looked like a mechanical research lab. It looked it might be useful/good, so I took it.
Dearche: So this was all your fault Levi!
Levi: It’s not my fault! It’s my important duty/task to recover treasures in the ruins!
Yuri: That’s right Dearche, the treasures that Levi’s finds are often useful for research or useful for daily living.
Dearche: That might be true, but it’s irresponsible for leaving it out so carelessly.
Levi: Um, that’s true…
Amitie: Now, now, it’s our fault that it accidentally activated.
Stern: Attempting to ascertain blame/responsibility is a waste of time.
Kyrie: That’s right, we should just try figure out how to solve our current radical problem first.
Dearche: Hey Peach head, you’re unusually magnanimous even as you’re trying to slip out of your own personal responsibility to this situation. (Bad translation)
Kyrie: I wonder what you’re talking about?
Amitie: Me and Kyrie will work on finding out how to send them home. Once we figure out their transfer coordinates, it should be easy to send them back. You understand Kyrie?
Kyrie: Understood. Now then, it’s a rare opportunity, so why don’t you all go and play with them?
Track 5:
Nanoha: The other dimensional/alien planet, Eltria…
Fate: A world that is neither an Administrated or Unadministrated world. But it’s a good place.
Nanoha: And everyone is so kind…
Fate: And it looks like we’ll be able to go home soon, that’s a relief.
Nanoha: If we were to suddenly disappear, everyone would get worried.
Fate: Yeah.
*knock knock*
Yuri: Nanoha, Fate, thanks for waiting.
Stern: Allow me to introduce myself. I am Stern.
Levi: Heya~! And I’m Levi!
Dearche: Dearche.
Nanoha: Um, Dearche-san…?
Fate: Is your hair style a bit different from before?
Dearche: Just a small makeover, nothing to be concerned of.
Nanoha: That looks cute too.
Dearche: Also, stop being so polite. (bad translation) How insulting.
Fate: In that alternate world, were you good friends of our other world selves?
Dearche: The exact opposite, We were conquerors/invaders and the destroyers.
Levi: Well, we did fight each other at first…
Stern: We confronted each other, then teamed up to defeat an enemy. We became sometime rivals, and then finally friends. It was that sort of relationship (alt trans: That’s how it went).
Fate: I see.
Nanoha: That was easy to understand.
Dearche: Don’t up the dynamics of the story that much! And don’t accept it just like that! (Alt trans: don’t just go and understand like that). I don’t know about you two, but We at least do not recall befriending/getting familiar with that ‘little crow’ and you!
Nanoha: Sorry about that but I do kinda understand the story. (note: But of course, it involved befriending Nanoha).
Fate: ‘Little Crow’, could it be that in that other world she was member of our group?
Yuri: Something like that, a gentle girl whose kind heart is like the night sky. (alt trans: a girl whose gentle kind heart is like that night sky)
Nanoha: I see.
Fate: Do you think we’ll meet her in our world?
Yuri: Of course!
Stern: Also, this might be a bit difficult to answer, but I will talk about it. There’s a reason why me and Nanoha, Levi and Fate, in both looks and clothing are very similar to each other
Nanoha: Oh, yeah.
Stern: We are not actually human, due various circumstances, when we needed to take on a human form we copied your appearance and powers/abilities and created our bodies.
Levi: And that’s why we look and wear clothing just like you! Though now we’re pretty much completely different/separate people.
Nanoha: I did notice that our barrier jackets really look alike, but me and Stern… don’t really look that all that similar.
Stern: Yes, when I first met you, I said the same thing. (alt trans: You said the same thing.) (bad translation can't tell you who is referring to who very well)
Nanoha: Yeah, after all, Stern looks way cooler.
Stern: Thank you very much.
Fate: Me and Levi then…
Levi: I’m real energetic and the color of my mana/magic aura is blue (lit: water color), so maybe I’m more like our big sister? Then again someone did say I maybe don’t?
Fate:, Levi is Levi after all.
Levi: Yeah, I am me! That’s why I’m awesome/cool!
Yuri: Dearche, everyone’s getting along great.
Dearche: Excepting Stern, everyone else is a child. (Alt trans; Acting like children)
Yuri: Oh that reminds me… We haven’t had breakfast yet. Why don’t you let them have some of Dearche’s delicious cooking too?
Dearche: Ah, it can’t be helped.
Amitie: I’m sure Nanoha and the others are going to face some very tough times after this, aren’t they?
Kyrie: Yeah, after all, we had heard how terrible/hard the Book of Darkness incident was.
Amitie: To think that we bothered them during that terrible time, I’m so sorry if we made their lives harder.
Kyrie: If that’s the case then, we just need to send them back to their own world and time as soon as possible.
Amitie: Yeah, I’m in full analysis mode with the power of burning blood (lit: nekketsu).
Dearche: Red head, peach head, I’ve prepared breakfast.
Kyrie: Oh, King/Your Majesty… You brought it to us? Where is everyone else?
Dearche: They’ve all gone out to explore. Stern and Nanoha have taken to the skies. Seems like Levi and Yuri are taking Fate to some nearby underground ruins.
Kyrie: Wow, that’s fast.
Amitie: Children are amazing. They’ve become friends so quickly.
Dearche: Truly.
Amitie: You’re not going King/Your majesty? I’m sure Yuri invited you too.
Dearche: When they return, no doubt they’re going to meet ‘little crow’ in that incident. We’ll be sending them back with a memory seal/block but if leave a strong impression on their memory, it might distort the fate of them and ‘little crow’.
Amitie: So that’s why you’ve changed your hair style and taken off your hair accessories?
Dearche: It’s not much but better than nothing.
Amitie: Oh how noble. Your Majesty has become very mature lately!
Kyirie: Our King/Your Majesty is awesome! I’ll give you a nice hug after this~.
Dearche: Stop talking such nonsense! Hurry up and eat so you can start analyzing/working!
K+A = Yes!
Track 6:
Nanoha: Divine~ Buster~!!
Stern: Wonderful, though you’re from a different world, you’re still Nanoha. Aerial combat manoeuvres and shooting skills are sublime.
Nanoha: Really? But I’ve only just started catching up with you. (alt trans: I’m barely able to catch/keep up with you)
Stern: I have three years experience advantage over you and you don't have Raising Heart. That must be where the gap is.
Nanoha: Oh~…
Stern: However, compared to your absolute/overall firepower, I still can’t measure up.
Nanoha: If that’s the case, I’m happy. If I can hit you, I can beat you/shoot you down.
Stern: That attitude truly is Nanoha-like. When you return to your original world, your memories will be sealed/erased but your body will never forget what you learn. To strengthen that shining bright star light that cleaves your path; I will in this battle, in this very moment with all my fiery/burning strength/heart fight you. (Note: Stern, emotionless yet somehow still hotblooded.)
Nanoha: Thank you! Please do, Stern! Accel Shooter!
Stern: Pyro Shooter!
Both: FIRE!
Track 7:
Revi: So what do you think after seeing Eltria from the sky?
Fate: Amazing, the desert and fertile soil is mixed together.
Yuri: What you’re seeing over there is back when the ‘dying land’ phenomenon was happening. (note: Shishoku)
Fate: ‘Dying land’?
Revi: We’ve arrived at our destination!
Fate: Hey Yuri, what did you mean by ‘dying land?
Yuri: It’s the term we use when the land begins disintegrate to the point where animals and people can no longer live on it.
Revi: With Amitie and Kyrie, we work to fulfill Professor Grants plan to heal the planet’s sickness.
Yuri: We work hard together for the sake of this planet’s future.
Fate: Amazing, how admirable.
Revi: Now then, for fun, let’s do some work together (alt trans: come and help us out!)
Yuri: In the ruins near the villages and towns are full of dangerous monsters/lifeforms you can encounter.
Revi: Dungeon travel and monster hunt!
Yuri: Revi’s a hunt master/expert.
Revi: The dungeon’s entrance is right over there. Let’s go Original and hunt!
Fate: Right, I’ll help/do my best!
Track 8:
Kyrie: The two arrived in the morning, and then went out to play. They came back from lunch and went out again. After sunset, just as the night began…
Amitie: Ah, success! I figured out the teleportation location/coordinate point! (Bad translation)
Kyrie: That took a lot of time. Well then, now everything is ready.
Amitie: And everyone just came back too. Now let’s send Nanoha-san and Fate-san home.
Kyrie: Okay, timeline and coordinates have been entered, coordinates are set. (bad translation) Teleportation power levels are stable. Protection levels for transferring object is secure/safe.
Nanoha: I guess this is goodbye then.
Fate: Thanks for taking care of us. Even treating us to dinner.
Nanoha: It was very delicious.
Dearche: But of course.
Levi: But you know, you two can stay for a bit longer. If you do, I can show you even more interesting dungeons. And I haven’t played with Nanoha that much.
Amitie: Levi, they can’t.
Stern: They have things/a mission to do.
Levi: Oh…
Nanoha: Sorry Levi, but I had a lot fun with everyone.
Fate: So did I.
Levi: Well, I had some fun too.
Dearche: I’m sure you’ll see them again one day. Anyways, hurry up and go home.
Yuri: Please do your best when you’re home.
Nanoha: Yeah.
Kyrie: So with some regret, activating transfer device. Pressing button~.
Nanoha: Um, thank you very much.
Fate: We’ll see each other one day…
Stern: Yes.
Nanoha: Thank you too, Dearche.
Fate: Let’s talk more next time we meet.
Dearche: How bothersome/noisy, get lost already.
Kyrie: I’m sure you know by now, but she’s just being shy.
Dearche: Who is? I’ll crush you (under my heel), Peach head!
Nanoha: Ahahaha.
Fate: Well then…
F+N: We’ll see each other ag-…
Stern: They’re gone.
Yuri: It was a bit unusual, but it was very fun.
Levi: It would have been great if you could have meet ‘Little Crow’, eh King?
Dearche: Silence! Just imagining it gives me the shivers/disgusts me.
Yuri: Oh, you… (alt trans: Oh, that again…)
Kyrie: Well then, let’s go back to the house.
L+Y: Okay!
Amitie: It seems we’ll have to prepare greater dimensional timeline prevention measures. It’ll be big trouble if bother another dimension and timeline like that.
Kyrie: Yeah, really.
Yuri: Amitie, Kyrie. I’ll help out too.
Kyrie: Thank you Yuri.
Dearche: Ah, but today has really worn/tired me out. Stern, put on the tea.
Stern: Leave it to me.
Levi: Me and Levi will have it sweet.
Kyrie: Me, too!
Stern: Yes…
Amitie: These are the days we live on the world, Eltria. Joyful times, difficult times, so many things happen. Even today, I record the days of our family’s lives. So that we can leave traces of our memories that we have lived about this world, about this time within the sea of numerous worlds and time. (bad translation)
Stern: Now the tea is done.
All: Thank you.
Dearche: Good.
Amitie: So that we can remember these memories full of smiles/laughter.
Track 9:
Nanoha: Huh?
Fate: Nanoha?
Nanoha: Fate-chan? What were we just doing?
Fate: Um. After school we decided to practice in the hills… Huh? Why are we in the park?
Nanoha: We’ve had a lot on our minds, so we both weren’t really paying attention?
Fate: That sounds like it, but it feels like I had a pleasant dream though.
Nanoha: Oh, so do I.
Fate: Um, anyways, let’s head home for now.
Nanoha: What sort of dream did you have Fate-chan?
Fate: Um, it was some ruins which I explored with friends.
Nanoha: Really? I had…
Hayate: Ahaha, oh no, I just happened to meet some really cute girls. Signum’s checking out the bus schedule right now. We’ll be heading home soon.
(Nanoha: So did I! AHAHA~!)
Hayate: I’ll make the Yagami Family special soup for everyone, so just wait for me.
