[00:18] ---
    Count Cruhteo?
[00:20] ---
    Yes, his eldest son inherited his title.
[00:24] ---
    Klancain, eh?
[00:25] ---
    I have heard that he is intensely
    loyal to the emperor.
[00:30] ---
    Those who have not yet submitted
    to me are essentially loyalists.
[00:34] ---
    If we can sway him over to our camp,
[00:37] ---
    it would be possible to get them
    all to change sides at once.
[00:39] ---
    Indeed.
[00:40] ---
    The question, though, is whether
    he is a man who can be trusted.
[00:48] ---
    Deucalion, lift off!
[00:50] ---
    All ahead dead slow!
[00:52] ---
    All ahead dead slow!
[01:13] ---
    We will now leave the atmosphere
    and make for the Satellite Belt.
[01:17] ---
    Our staging area is Parnassos Base!
[02:58] ---
    Our attack target is
    the enemy's moonbase.
[03:01] ---
    It is the main enemy fortress
    where Princess Asseylum is.
[03:04] ---
    Given that the Landing Castle in
    the sector we are approaching
[03:07] ---
    is likely to serve as a shelter for Princess
    Asseylum in the event of an attack,
[03:14] ---
    it will be necessary to attack these
    two fortifications simultaneously.
[03:19] ---
    Therefore, we will be splitting our
    forces into two for this operation.
[03:22] ---
    Breton Company and the Deucalion will,
    at 2200 hours Earth Standard Time,
[03:28] ---
    commence their attack
    against the Landing Castle.
[03:31] ---
    After we have confirmation that
    the enemy moonbase's forces
[03:33] ---
    have split off to defend
    the Landing Castle,
[03:36] ---
    Trakehner Company will make use of the
    asteroids that litter the area.
[03:41] ---
    They will conceal their approach of
    the enemy base and then strike!
[03:46] ---
    This operation is designated Operation Luna Gate.
[03:58] ---
    Forgive me, Milady.
[04:00] ---
    If I had not been so careless...
[04:03] ---
    No, any blame must rest with me.
[04:08] ---
    This entire situation began with me.
[04:11] ---
    Don't say such things, Milady...
[04:14] ---
    You are right.
[04:15] ---
    If you were truly gone...
[04:17] ---
    If you had remained asleep, everything
    would have gone smoothly.
[04:21] ---
    No one wept for you...
    And he would not have been corrupted...
[04:29] ---
    You care deeply for Slaine, don't you?
[04:34] ---
    And you?! What about you?!
[04:38] ---
    Who do you care for?!
[04:42] ---
    My heart belongs to the world of Vers
    and the people who dwell there.
[04:49] ---
    That is what I was taught
    and how I have lived my life.
[04:54] ---
    I feel sorry for you.
[05:00] ---
    We will attack the Landing Castle
    along with Breton Company.
[05:04] ---
    We are responsible for half
    of this two-front operation,
[05:06] ---
    the second being the attack
    on the moonbase.
[05:09] ---
    That is the mission we have
    been given by headquarters.
[05:14] ---
    A two-front operation?
[05:16] ---
    Basically, we're just here to get
    the enemy to divide his forces.
[05:20] ---
    By using this ship as bait again...
[05:23] ---
    However, I have no intention of
    accepting that role lying down.
[05:28] ---
    People, don't throw your lives away,
[05:31] ---
    and until we return to Earth,
[05:33] ---
    I want you to do your best.
[05:36] ---
    Dismissed.
[05:37] ---
    All hands to your assigned stations!
[05:42] ---
    Captain.
[05:43] ---
    I had a feeling you would speak with me.
[05:45] ---
    I have something to discuss with you, too.
[05:54] ---
    I apologize for the delay.
[05:57] ---
    As I understand it,
    you have come all this way
[06:00] ---
    to offer your condolences over
    my father, Count Saazbaum.
[06:02] ---
    We are quite a long way from Vers, after all.
[06:05] ---
    That, as well as congratulations
    for your succession,
[06:08] ---
    are long overdue, Lord Troyard.
[06:10] ---
    No, it is I who must apologize
[06:12] ---
    for failing to congratulate you on your
    own succession to the peerage, Count Cruhteo.
[06:16] ---
    Klancain is fine.
    I am still unaccustomed to the title.
[06:20] ---
    As you wish, then.
[06:21] ---
    Princess Asseylum was looking forward to
    seeing you again after so long, but...
[06:28] ---
    I hear that she has been feeling unwell.
[06:30] ---
    It is nothing serious,
    but one cannot be too careful.
[06:36] ---
    I am most indebted to your late father.
[06:40] ---
    He was not hard on you?
    He was a man who was stern to a fault.
[06:46] ---
    I learned a great many lessons from him.
[06:51] ---
    I would not be the man I am today
    were it not for him.
[06:57] ---
    I saw the Tharsis.
[07:00] ---
    I am glad that it appears to be of
    some use to you, Lord Troyard.
[07:05] ---
    I heard while en route here.
[07:08] ---
    Something to the effect that you were
    going to found a new kingdom here?
[07:12] ---
    It was Princess Asseylum's wish.
[07:17] ---
    Was it also His Majesty's?
[07:24] ---
    It is my understanding that he is not well.
[07:30] ---
    Our top medical staff are tending to him
    with our latest medical equipment.
[07:34] ---
    There is no cause for concern.
[07:36] ---
    That is good news.
[07:38] ---
    I am sure that when Princess
    Asseylum's wish comes true,
[07:41] ---
    His Majesty will also be overjoyed.
[07:44] ---
    One would hope so.
[07:47] ---
    If you were to lend us your support, Lord Klancain,
[07:50] ---
    it would be most reassuring.
[07:54] ---
    I look forward to it.
[07:56] ---
    To seeing this new kingdom alter Vers' future.
[08:08] ---
    Examination of rock clusters
    exhibiting unnatural behavior
[08:11] ---
    suggests objects of different mass behind them.
[08:14] ---
    Camouflage, eh?
[08:16] ---
    The Stygis Squadron?
[08:18] ---
    Ready for launch.
[08:20] ---
    See Count Klancain to a safe location.
[08:26] ---
    Enemy force will be in firing range in 7 minutes.
[08:30] ---
    We'll gradually move the line back
    as we engage them
[08:33] ---
    and separate the enemy force from the moonbase.
[08:35] ---
    All hands to battle stations.
[08:38] ---
    Now beginning launch sequence.
[08:59] ---
    Connecting flywheel.
[09:02] ---
    Starting catapult arm rotation.
[09:05] ---
    Opening hatch.
[09:07] ---
    Clydesdale Platoon, move to launch position.
[09:09] ---
    Roger. Clydesdale Leader to all units.
[09:12] ---
    Move to launch position.
[09:26] ---
    Anchors engaged.
    Catapult arm rotation nominal.
[09:29] ---
    Beginning acceleration.
    Go for launch in 20 seconds.
[09:32] ---
    Clydesdale Leader, cleared for launch.
[09:35] ---
    Roger, cleared for launch.
[09:37] ---
    All units, launch.
[09:38] ---
    Blast off!
[09:49] ---
    And now Mustang Platoon, prepare for launch.
[09:55] ---
    Breton Company and Deucalion,
    begin attack as planned.
[10:00] ---
    Roger that. Let's go, too.
[10:05] ---
    Begin attack!
[10:10] ---
    Multiple enemy contacts detected in
    the direction of Libra. Kataphrakts.
[10:14] ---
    Intercept them.
[10:32] ---
    It's begun.
[10:33] ---
    Yeah.
[10:34] ---
    Enemy defenses are
    pretty tough, all right...
[10:37] ---
    They knew that this
    was going to be a tough fight.
[10:41] ---
    The reason it was necessary to push ahead
    with this operation in spite of that...
[10:45] ---
    ...was because HQ had a more
    important mission in mind.
[10:49] ---
    The captain was right to be suspicious.
[10:52] ---
    That's a covert infiltration by an assault team
    during an all-out offensive...
[11:00] ---
    For sabotage?
[11:01] ---
    No, there would be no need
    for secrecy then.
[11:06] ---
    Their objective has to be...
[11:10] ---
    ...to assassinate Princess Asseylum.
[11:24] ---
    Bastard!
[11:30] ---
    Fire!
[11:36] ---
    Next!
[11:41] ---
    90 seconds to closest approach.
[11:44] ---
    Roger. Let's stick to the plan, then.
[11:47] ---
    Inko.
[11:49] ---
    I had wanted to come alone.
[11:52] ---
    It's going to be dangerous from here on. So–
[11:54] ---
    Oh, come on... You're giving me that again?
[11:58] ---
    The captain assigned me to provide support
[12:00] ---
    out of recognition for my accomplishments.
[12:04] ---
    For the fact that I've been fighting
    alongside you and the others.
[12:09] ---
    Sorry, Inko.
[12:11] ---
    All right, let's go.
[12:19] ---
    This is close enough.
    I'll make the drop from here.
[12:22] ---
    It's too dangerous. We're still too high.
[12:26] ---
    Enemy units!
[12:33] ---
    Drop me!
    You can't return fire like this!
[12:36] ---
    It's okay! The wind's strong!
[12:38] ---
    I can dodge it from this range.
[12:40] ---
    Inko!
[12:41] ---
    A little more!
[12:47] ---
    Yuki!
[12:49] ---
    I've got this!
[12:58] ---
    Thanks, Yuki. It's safe to drop me, Inko.
[13:03] ---
    Roger.
[13:08] ---
    Be careful.
[13:15] ---
    We'll split up here.
    Each team will search their assigned route.
[13:19] ---
    When the target is spotted,
    carry out mission immediately.
[13:23] ---
    Dismissed.
[13:42] ---
    Ambush!
[13:47] ---
    I was also expecting an infiltration team.
[13:50] ---
    It is likely that the enemy
    has also infiltrated other zones.
[13:54] ---
    I will dispatch guards.
[13:56] ---
    The princesses?
[13:57] ---
    Being relocated to a more secure block.
[13:59] ---
    Lord Troyard.
[14:01] ---
    Your servant Barouhcruz has rushed
    over to provide assistance!!
[14:04] ---
    Ah, you have come.
    You have my thanks.
[14:07] ---
    I will also send Harklight to your location.
[14:12] ---
    What in the world is happening?
[14:21] ---
    I'll hold them off here.
    The rest of you, locate the target!
[14:30] ---
    Importing base security feeds and generating map.
[14:41] ---
    I'm using you too much, huh?
[14:45] ---
    I-I'm all right...
    Infiltration team position confirmed.
[14:50] ---
    If I follow their path of advance...
    that's where Seylum will be.
[15:03] ---
    We can do this.
    The enemy is as good as wiped–
[15:15] ---
    Ultra high-tension monofilament
    wire spooled around
[15:18] ---
    a superconducting
    electromagnetic bobbin.
[15:21] ---
    There is nothing that this blade
    cannot cut through!
[15:24] ---
    You see to the rats in the area,
[15:27] ---
    Sir Harklight!
[15:29] ---
    Consider it done!
[15:35] ---
    Target located!
[15:36] ---
    Please get back!
[15:40] ---
    You two!
[15:45] ---
    Run, Highness!
[15:56] ---
    Milord Slaine, we've lost contact with the escorts!
[16:00] ---
    What?! Where are the princesses?!
[16:02] ---
    Making for the landing port,
    but enemy forces are heading there as well!
[16:05] ---
    Sending more personnel immed–
[16:06] ---
    I'll go!
[16:10] ---
    Why would you help me?
[16:12] ---
    I do not need a reason to save someone.
[16:16] ---
    Such arrogance...
[16:19] ---
    The suffering of those you save
    never enters your mind, does it?
[16:29] ---
    Milady Lemrina!
[16:30] ---
    Leave me.
    I will remain here.
[16:34] ---
    We must escape at once!
[16:36] ---
    Escape to where?
    And from whom?
[16:38] ---
    I'm certain we can find safety–
[16:40] ---
    This place is my only shelter.
[16:51] ---
    Go!
[16:57] ---
    Where are we? Do...
    Do another search. Seylum...
[17:03] ---
    ...has to be nearby.
[17:08] ---
    I didn't expect to see you here, Inaho Kaizuka.
[17:12] ---
    Slaine Troyard...
[17:29] ---
    Calculate firing point from bullet path.
[17:34] ---
    Thermograph.
[17:39] ---
    Steam pipes...
[17:43] ---
    Where's Seylum...
    Where is Princess Asseylum?
[17:47] ---
    Don't get her involved!
[17:49] ---
    Get her involved?
    She is a means to achieving my ends.
[17:53] ---
    Nothing more.
[17:55] ---
    You're going to exploit her?
[17:58] ---
    If she is, do you have a problem with that?!
[18:01] ---
    You were an enemy all along!
[18:05] ---
    If that's all you were, there would have
    been no need to hate you.
[18:25] ---
    Over there!
[18:30] ---
    After him!
[18:41] ---
    Let's go!
[18:46] ---
    Eddelrittuo!
[18:50] ---
    Are you all right, Eddelrittuo?
[18:52] ---
    And you, Milady?
[18:59] ---
    Milady!
[19:08] ---
    Seylum?
[19:13] ---
    Inaho!
[19:15] ---
    Seylum... I'm glad... you're okay.
[19:22] ---
    Inaho!
[19:23] ---
    Milady!
[19:26] ---
    Inaho!
[19:28] ---
    Inaho!
[19:33] ---
    Ina–
[19:33] ---
    Princess Asseylum Vers Allusia,
    identity confirmed.
[19:38] ---
    Inaho?
[19:41] ---
    Thought processes stopped.
    Running backup program.
[19:45] ---
    What's the matter, Inaho?
[19:48] ---
    Temporarily assuming control
    over Inaho Kaizuka's
[19:50] ---
    thought processes, awareness,
    and speech functions.
[19:55] ---
    Who... are you?
[19:57] ---
    Even though this boy is aware that
    Princess Asseylum is a separate individual,
[20:04] ---
    he misidentifies her as a part of himself.
[20:07] ---
    Part of himself?
[20:09] ---
    He therefore placed maximum priority
    on her safety and has acted to protect her.
[20:16] ---
    He came... to rescue me?
[20:19] ---
    Will provide information in accordance
    with those behavioral principles.
[20:24] ---
    Use communications line
    inside F3 gate airlock
[20:27] ---
    to contact Inko Amifumi.
[20:30] ---
    The crew of the Deucalion...
    they are here?!
[20:33] ---
    Let's go, Milady.
    I know where that airlock is.
[20:37] ---
    But we can't leave Inaho here–
[20:39] ---
    There is no cause for concern.
[20:41] ---
    In 420 seconds, help will arrive.
[20:45] ---
    Then we should hurry all the more.
    There is no telling if that "help" is on our side.
[20:53] ---
    Please tell him something for me.
    "Thank you from the bottom of my heart."
[20:57] ---
    Command confirmed.
[21:01] ---
    And also...
[21:03] ---
    I also...
[21:06] ---
    I also think of you as a part of myself.
[21:13] ---
    We need to leave.
[21:14] ---
    Wait... I have one more
[21:18] ---
    favor to ask!
[21:31] ---
    This way!
[21:35] ---
    Just a moment, I'll get the transmission–
[21:38] ---
    Princess Asseylum, I presume?
[21:41] ---
    Prepare to die.
[21:51] ---
    Are you unharmed, Highness?
[21:54] ---
    You are...
[21:57] ---
    Klancain?
[21:59] ---
    We last met at my father's commendation ceremony.
[22:03] ---
    I am honored that you remember me.
