[00:09] ---     Thank goodness you woke up. [00:12] ---     Can you talk? [00:15] ---     Do you know who you are? [00:17] ---     Do you remember your name? [00:19] ---     Why are you carrying W's gun? [00:23] ---     Hey, that belonged to our fallen comrade. [00:26] ---     Put that down, will you? [00:27] ---     Beastshit.     Do that, and you can— [00:29] ---     You've been waiting for me to turn my back. [00:32] ---     Not a bad answer. [00:34] ---     Very well. I'll let you join our squad. [00:38] ---     Hold on, Hoederer! [00:39] ---     According to the old ways, we'll give her a chance.     Hold on, Hoederer! [00:39] ---     According to the old ways,     we'll give her a chance. [00:42] ---     Now follow me, nameless Sarkaz. [00:45] ---     You understand what it means to take     up the weapons of the fallen, yes? [00:50] ---     Of course. [00:51] ---     Good. [00:52] ---     From today on, you'll be— [00:54] ---     "W". [02:28] ---     What's that? [02:29] ---     A bounty list. [02:31] ---     Your name's here, too. [02:33] ---     "W, the old one..." [02:36] ---     "Taken care of." [02:38] ---     "New one is a problem.     10 candies, maybe more." [02:40] ---     The candy's a codeword for payout. [02:42] ---     That's the kinda price they     put on our heads, huh? [02:46] ---     The bigger your name is,     the bigger the price... [02:49] ---     This war gives us worth, and it     showed us a path of survival. [02:53] ---     How sentimental. [02:54] ---     You know this guy? [02:56] ---     Yeah, sometimes you have to     take out a familiar face. [03:00] ---     That's what it means to have     more candies on your head. [03:03] ---     Hey, who's stronger? Me or the old one? [03:06] ---     What? [03:08] ---     Are you enjoying this? The war? [03:11] ---     Yeah. [03:12] ---     She's just like the old W. [03:15] ---     That's quite the compliment. [03:17] ---     The truth is she's doing pretty well. [03:18] ---     But I'm not babysitting her. [03:21] ---     You don't trust her? [03:23] ---     There's nothing on her mind. [03:25] ---     Not when she's lying, not when she's killing. [03:28] ---     As a mercenary, she's— [03:28] ---     Overqualified?     As a mercenary, she's— [03:29] ---     Overqualified? [03:30] ---     If this is a big mission, all     the more reason not to use her. [03:34] ---     I'm working with the tools     I've got. That's all. [03:38] ---     Us mercs have no home to return to. [03:40] ---     We have to do whatever it takes to stand out     from the crowd and stake out our own position. [03:45] ---     Maybe calm down a little.     Your shadow is trembling. [03:47] ---     That's just the campfire flickering. [03:49] ---     All you Sarkaz are like this...     always dodging the subject. [03:53] ---     Alright, fine. [03:54] ---     So? Who's our client? [03:56] ---     I can't tell you. [03:58] ---     Maybe you should try trusting your own team? [04:01] ---     If you knew, you'd have to     carry the responsibility. [04:03] ---     Hoederer,     If you knew, you'd have to carry the responsibility. [04:04] ---     don't try to shoulder everything yourself. [04:07] ---     In the end, we're all just mercenaries. [04:09] ---     I'll keep that in mind. [04:10] ---     I mean it. So? [04:13] ---     The client's— [04:14] ---     Babel. [04:15] ---     The heck's this? A company? [04:16] ---     Who knows. [04:17] ---     I see. So he doesn't trust you either, huh? [04:21] ---     Hmph. Trust, huh? [04:23] ---     Just so you know, I've     never trusted you either. [04:29] ---     You're after the candies on     Hoederer's head, aren't you? [04:31] ---     Maybe. [04:32] ---     His head's still attached     though. Had a change of heart? [04:35] ---     I wonder. [04:37] ---     So there's something you want. [04:38] ---     No, it might not be a thing. [04:40] ---     Stop. [04:41] ---     You're shook. [04:43] ---     Turns out you're actually quite honest. [04:44] ---     None of your business. Now leave me— [04:49] ---     That's Babel's... [04:50] ---     What a bunch of high rollers. [04:52] ---     Most of the convoy are dummies.     The main squad's not here, either. [04:54] ---     So what? We're bait? [04:56] ---     If that's how they use us. [04:59] ---     Our mission's to guard the convoy! [05:01] ---     We'll reach our destination in three days. [05:03] ---     If you see anyone you can't identify, kill them on the spot!     No need for warnings! [05:06] ---     That's all. Return to your positions! [05:08] ---     That's harsh. [05:09] ---     Who's going to attack us? [05:12] ---     You scared? [05:13] ---     Not a chance. [05:14] ---     I'll be operating separately. [05:16] ---     You two, get your act     together during the mission. [05:19] ---     Ines, that's a breach of contract. Stop it. [05:21] ---     The thing they're transporting... [05:23] ---     That's a... [05:23] ---     Ines. [05:24] ---     How should I put it... [05:28] ---     How are the comms? [05:29] ---     No good. They're jammed. [05:31] ---     Looks like we're the only ones who survived. [05:33] ---     Well, thanks to that, it doesn't look     like the enemy's reached the main convoy. [05:37] ---     I guess that was the extent of their intel. [05:41] ---     We need to regroup with Hoederer's squad. [05:44] ---     Our enemies are not your average mercs.     They're probably Kazdel's... [05:47] ---     You were way overusing your Arts. [05:49] ---     What does it matter? [05:51] ---     With the way things are     going, we're boned anyway. [05:54] ---     Choose. [05:55] ---     The main convoy's location     or Hoederer's head. [05:58] ---     Give me either of them, and I'll     give you a perfect stage to shine. [06:02] ---     Well, that's kind of you. [06:03] ---     The more tools we have on hand, the better. [06:05] ---     Tools? [06:06] ---     You mean disposable goods? [06:09] ---     No thanks! [06:11] ---     Don't let them get away! [06:13] ---     Ines! [06:17] ---     How foolish. Finish her. [06:34] ---     There's no need to stand     on ceremony like that. [06:36] ---     While you're on the landship,     you aren't in Kazdel. [06:39] ---     Your Highness... [06:41] ---     Come, let's sit down and talk, Hoederer. [06:44] ---     I feel bad for him. [06:46] ---     There are only monsters     in that room with him. [06:50] ---     To think our clients are the ones at the     very center of Kazdel's succession conflict... [06:54] ---     Her Highness Theresa and     her private organization. [06:57] ---     So? We were carrying parts to their     under-construction base and got ambushed by an opposing group? [07:02] ---     What's with this place? [07:04] ---     It's not a normal ship.     I've never seen a structure like this before. [07:07] ---     Hmm... The place looks     like it's falling apart. [07:10] ---     Well, it doesn't matter to... ugh... me. [07:12] ---     Stop it. [07:14] ---     Heh, I gotta at least     look for an escape route. [07:22] ---     You're awake. What a relief. [07:25] ---     It's my fault that there were     more casualties than anticipated. [07:29] ---     I apologize. [07:31] ---     But the operation was a success.     You are an excellent mercenary. [07:35] ---     We'll be counting on your help in the future. [07:37] ---     For now, rest up and get better. [07:40] ---     Now please excuse me. [07:44] ---     Scary. [07:48] ---     Come on! It'd save us lots of     time if we'd just buy new doors! [07:51] ---     But we have so many wounded.     We don't have the manpower or budg— [07:55] ---     Then give me three days! I'll     reassemble the whole system! [07:57] ---     Can you do it? [07:58] ---     'Course I can! Hell, I will ! [08:00] ---     If we have no clue how to use it, we just have to replace it     with something we can ! Easy peasy! [08:04] ---     Well... I'll leave you to it then. [08:06] ---     Roger that! [08:09] ---     You were... W, right? [08:12] ---     Your... Highness... [08:14] ---     You may call me Theresa. [08:16] ---     Your Highness... Theresa? [08:19] ---     Um... Thanks for saving us. [08:22] ---     I was so worried. [08:24] ---     It's such a relief you came to. [08:26] ---     Is the construction of     the ship not going well? [08:29] ---     No, that's not quite it. [08:31] ---     You see, this ship was actually     lying dormant underground. [08:34] ---     We excavated all its parts and     are working on repairing it. [08:38] ---     Rhodes Island. [08:40] ---     That's this vessel's name,     hidden deep in the records. [08:44] ---     I don't know what the Doctor     and Kal'tsit will think of it, [08:47] ---     but I want to call it by     the name it already had. [08:50] ---     People forget names all the     time... There's no point. [08:54] ---     You don't have a true name, do you? [08:57] ---     It's pretty common for     Sarkaz born in Kazdel— [09:02] ---     I don't want to forget. Not you, not anyone. [09:06] ---     No, I mustn't forget them. [09:09] ---     In due course, when you     no longer need to be "W", [09:12] ---     you'll definitely want one. [09:14] ---     A name belonging to you and no one else. [09:16] ---     Until then, you can stay     here as long as you want. [09:20] ---     We will welcome you. [09:25] ---     Um... Dr. Kal'tsit said it's     dangerous to go in there... [09:30] ---     I'll be leaving soon. [09:32] ---     Okay! Be careful. [09:39] ---     What about the other Sarkaz? [09:41] ---     Apparently, she's found what she wants to do. [09:43] ---     I see. [09:45] ---     Mercenaries who seek to be free spirits     always advocate for freedom and independence. [09:49] ---     It's a shame. [09:51] ---     You have done excellent work     over the past few months. [09:55] ---     Undoubtedly, that which you seek is     what those Sarkaz warriors who lost their way yearn for. [10:01] ---     It is a path you've chosen for yourself.     You must walk it to the very end. [10:06] ---     I hope that works out for you. [10:08] ---     Hey, Scout. [10:10] ---     Hm? [10:10] ---     Where's Theresa? [10:12] ---     Running after Her Highness again, are you? [10:14] ---     Hm? [10:15] ---     What's that? [10:16] ---     A little camera I yoinked     from the spies we caught. [10:19] ---     Her face lit up when I     told her she could stay. [10:23] ---     What an ingrate. [10:27] ---     Say, [10:28] ---     did you feel anything from the people there? [10:30] ---     Well, Her Highness is sorrowful,     but she's a very warm person. [10:36] ---     So much so that it's hard to believe she's     at the center of this cruel civil war. [10:40] ---     Dr. Kal'tsit had a cold, mechanical     feel to her, like a machine... [10:44] ---     but she never once called us Sarkaz "devils". [10:47] ---     She sees us all as equals. [10:50] ---     As for the Doctor... Right. [10:52] ---     To draw an analogy, like a chess player. [10:55] ---     All the soldiers are nothing but pawns. [10:59] ---     And it seemed like Her Highness and the others     were turning a blind eye to that. [11:03] ---     The Doctor practically runs the whole war. [11:07] ---     I said this to W too, but things may     be starting to change within Babel. [11:13] ---     Leaving might be the right call. [11:24] ---     We all made the right call,     including that Babel commander. [11:30] ---     Her head alone ended the war. [11:33] ---     You hunted my entire team     down and silenced us forever. [11:37] ---     Just as His Highness Theresis wanted. [11:40] ---     Theresa is the only one who     deserve to be called "Highness". [11:43] ---     Theresa... [11:45] ---     We stained our hands with her blood... [11:49] ---     But even then... Up until     the very end, she... [11:54] ---     I... I... [12:07] ---     Long time no see. [12:09] ---     Yeah, it's been almost half a year. [12:12] ---     This is where we first met. [12:15] ---     Were you feeling nostalgic? [12:17] ---     Hell no. My last target     just happened to be here. [12:21] ---     What's this about? [12:22] ---     The Regent Theresis has called     up all the remaining mercenaries. [12:26] ---     They'll probably be joined     into a standing army soon. [12:29] ---     So everyone's gonna buddy up     to Theresis and follow him? [12:32] ---     Most Sarkaz have given up on even thinking. [12:36] ---     So how was it, with those horns of yours? [12:38] ---     What? [12:39] ---     I'm asking how it felt when you carved     your horns to look all Sarkazy. [12:43] ---     Did it hurt? Was there any blood? [12:46] ---     No. [12:47] ---     Right, you're different. [12:49] ---     Keep playing the Sarkaz and     you'll get yourself killed. [12:52] ---     I decided to go down this path, and it's     the only one I can follow at this point. [12:57] ---     W, standing up against the     Regent is a death sentence. [13:01] ---     Just do what you gotta do, then.     You came here for that, didn't you? [13:04] ---     Slow down. [13:05] ---     We're headed to Ursus. [13:07] ---     Oh? [13:09] ---     There's an Infected group in Northern Ursus,     and they're paying top dollar for Kazdelian mercs. [13:16] ---     Sounds like the Regent is     trying to make use of them. [13:18] ---     So you're saying we can slip out of Kazdel     by claiming to join that organization? [13:22] ---     And they're a gathering of the oppressed. [13:25] ---     Could even serve as a good     roadmap for the Sarkaz. [13:28] ---     What do you say? Are you coming, too? [13:30] ---     Right... both the monster with the     mask and the old hag are gone. [13:34] ---     There's jack shit keeping me in Kazdel. [13:37] ---     Alright. [13:38] ---     But I'm gonna do what I wanna do. [13:40] ---     I'll make my own choices. [13:42] ---     As long as you follow your minders' orders. [13:45] ---     Welcome back, "W". [13:49] ---     What are you doing out here?! [13:52] ---     I'm enjoying the Catastrophe! [13:54] ---     Get your ass back here right now! [13:55] ---     I can't hear you!     Get your ass back here right now! [13:57] ---     I'm not upset. [14:00] ---     She's always been a lunatic, [14:02] ---     but now she's practically a     Catastrophe in human form. [14:05] ---     She also seems calmer than before. [14:08] ---     I'm really not sure anymore. [14:10] ---     I didn't know you were that fond of her. [14:12] ---     It doesn't look like she wants to talk     about what happened at Babel, either. [14:16] ---     So you won't force it out of her, then? [14:18] ---     That's for the better. [14:20] ---     Yeah, we'll keep things the way they are. [14:22] ---     Well, aren't you in a good mood. [14:24] ---     You almost got us killed in that Catastrophe. [14:27] ---     Do you know what the biggest     perk of being a lunatic is? [14:29] ---     Huh? [14:30] ---     You can do all kinds of crazy shit     and no one will question you. [14:33] ---     Heh, we're just following you, Boss. [14:37] ---     So, that "Rhodes Island" ship's     already left Kazdel, right? [14:41] ---     All we know is that there's no     sign it's been taken by Theresis. [14:45] ---     Good enough for me. [14:48] ---     Welcome, warriors from afar. [14:52] ---     We're honored to have you here. [14:54] ---     What? She reminds you of Theresa? [14:56] ---     In terms of emotions. [14:58] ---     Although unlike Her Highness's deep sorrow,     hers feels more like a fierce wrath... [15:01] ---     Pardon... my intrusion. [15:05] ---     I would like to, ask you. [15:08] ---     About what has become of Kazdel. [15:10] ---     You're a Sarkaz, too. [15:12] ---     Not only that... [15:13] ---     A Wendigo, if I'm not mistaken. [15:15] ---     That ancient race... [15:16] ---     Correct. [15:17] ---     Well, who gives a crap     about Kazdel at this poi— [15:19] ---     Theresa... [15:21] ---     She left with you, proof, that she lived. [15:27] ---     In the past, my race, exiled     ourselves from Kazdel. [15:32] ---     But I, am still Sarkaz. [15:35] ---     That has not changed, even now. [15:38] ---     I want to know, the truth. [15:41] ---     What happened to my people, my homeland. [15:49] ---     We'll go check on Amiya and Dobermann. [15:52] ---     Got it. [15:53] ---     Let's go. [15:56] ---     You can come out now. [15:58] ---     How cruel. I haven't seen Ace for     three years either, you know. [16:01] ---     Sorry. [16:02] ---     So? What's this about a deal? [16:04] ---     I want you to let the Doctor get out safely. [16:07] ---     The Doctor? [16:09] ---     You'll owe me big time. [16:11] ---     What did you give up other than my life? [16:13] ---     Whatever. [16:14] ---     Tell me your real name     before you go, comrade. [16:18] ---     It's Scout. [16:20] ---     All mercs use codenames, don't they? [16:22] ---     Right, Garcin? [16:24] ---     Warrior of Rhodes Island! [16:26] ---     Name yourself! [16:28] ---     The name's Ace! [16:30] ---     Rhodes Island Elite Operator Ace! [16:33] ---     Garcin was the minder sent by Theresis. [16:36] ---     Now W's the leader of the mercenaries. [16:38] ---     Well, isn't that swell. [16:39] ---     Your team has been eliminated.     Down to the last man. [16:43] ---     That's all the time you're     buying for the Doctor's rescue. [16:46] ---     So you knew my entire team, huh? [16:49] ---     "It'd be a pain if you killed the     wrong person." That's what she said. [16:53] ---     Never thought W would     care about others' names. [16:56] ---     I thought she would finish me herself. [16:58] ---     She might not have the     heart to do it herself. [17:00] ---     Either way, though— [17:03] ---     A Sarkaz? [17:05] ---     Talulah?! [17:06] ---     There are... two shadows? [17:10] ---     Ah, so your name's Amiya. Well, whatever. [17:13] ---     I got what I came for. [17:18] ---     I never cared about the     little bunny's name before. [17:21] ---     I wanted to let you go, too. [17:24] ---     I'm sorry. Sleep now, old friend. [17:27] ---     Hoederer. [17:28] ---     We Sarkaz shouldn't be letting     others to continue to use us. [17:31] ---     You shouldn't stay here. [17:34] ---     Use those eyes of yours to see the truth,     and don't die in vain before you do. [17:38] ---     Tell W that, too. [17:40] ---     Got it. [17:43] ---     Why?! [17:44] ---     Scout! [17:46] ---     Warrior of Rhodes Island! [17:48] ---     Do you hear me?! [17:51] ---     It's just like three years ago, you say?! [17:54] ---     But it's nothing like Theresa. [17:56] ---     Talulah is trying to dismantle     the very tower she built! [17:59] ---     You used your Arts on Talulah?! [18:01] ---     We have to tell W! [18:02] ---     Wait, Ines! [18:08] ---     You let the deserters escape, didn't you? [18:11] ---     Who knows? [18:12] ---     Reunion is keeping a closer eye on us now. [18:15] ---     I'll go before the Regent and     report what happened to Garcin. [18:18] ---     Are you that eager to     reunite with Ines in death? [18:20] ---     Of course not. [18:22] ---     She wanted to warn you about something. [18:26] ---     There were two shadows. [18:28] ---     And something's wrong with Talulah. [18:30] ---     So you didn't need Misha to     activate the city after all. [18:34] ---     I can activate it easily, but     stopping it is a different matter. [18:37] ---     Misha's father, Sergei, gave     her the key needed to stop it. [18:42] ---     And without her ever knowing. [18:44] ---     The key was a means to ensure our success. [18:48] ---     Until I screwed up and lost it, right? [18:50] ---     It's not your fault. [18:52] ---     Oh, how kind of you. [18:53] ---     So was that the only key, then? [18:55] ---     Not quite. The mayor of Chernobog,     Count Boris, also held one. [18:59] ---     Oh, that geezer Mephisto burned to     a crisp back at the abandoned city. [19:02] ---     Did the key go up in flames, too? [19:04] ---     It's been recovered and safekept by Patriot. [19:06] ---     Have I earned at least a modicum     of your trust with this? [19:10] ---     After all, we must support each other. [19:12] ---     Really now? [19:13] ---     Of course. I mean it. [19:21] ---     W... [19:22] ---     You pitiful, treacherous insect. [19:25] ---     My flames have already found your wings. [19:28] ---     You will pay for your betrayal. [19:31] ---     What's with that tone of voice? [19:33] ---     Are you really Talulah? [19:35] ---     Creepy. [19:38] ---     No way... [19:39] ---     Were the toys you hid under     the floor your trump card? [19:47] ---     Where did she... [19:49] ---     You want to stop the collision with     Lungmen, don't you, Sarkaz girl? [19:52] ---     Try "devil". [19:54] ---     You wish to be called a racial slur? [19:56] ---     Everyone calls us that 'cause     we scare you, so I welcome it. [20:01] ---     You wanted to save your fellow Sarkaz. [20:04] ---     What a lovely little devil you are. [20:06] ---     Will I be the first one you     skewer alive with that sword? [20:10] ---     You're the second. [20:11] ---     Well, that sucks. [20:13] ---     I ain't got a clue what number you would be. [20:19] ---     Yelena... [20:27] ---     Do you know what it means to take     up the blade of a fallen Sarkaz? [20:31] ---     Shut up, you devil! [20:32] ---     You tricked him, didn't you?! [20:33] ---     That hospital's the only place with drugs     that can stop the onset of Oripathy. [20:37] ---     Then what's taking... so long...? [20:40] ---     I dug him out of the rubble and saved him. [20:43] ---     If I'm not there for him, he... [20:45] ---     He... Did he run away? [20:47] ---     You won't know for sure until he gets back.     Not like you ever trusted him, though. [20:52] ---     Huh? [20:53] ---     Seems to me you looked     down on him quite a bit. [20:55] ---     That's not— [20:56] ---     You don't even know his name. [20:59] ---     Let me know if you can't deal with the pain. [21:02] ---     I'll give you an easy way out. [21:03] ---     If you don't want that, endure it. [21:06] ---     You saved him, so he wants to     save you. It's that simple. [21:09] ---     It's got nothing to do     with status or lineage. [21:12] ---     Keep that blade. I'll stand in     for its owner and say it's yours. [21:17] ---     Rublev! [21:18] ---     I did it! Look, a medical kit! [21:20] ---     You got hurt... [21:22] ---     I'm okay! Here, let me bandage your wound... [21:25] ---     Say, um... What's... your name? [21:28] ---     What are you laughing at? [21:29] ---     You finally asked. [21:30] ---     My name's Andrey. [21:32] ---     Thanks, Andrey. [21:35] ---     Huh? [21:36] ---     Where's that Sarkaz? [21:39] ---     You had some potential... as     the opening act of a farce. [21:44] ---     Hey, Hoederer. [21:46] ---     You said this war is what gives us worth... [21:49] ---     W, you want to... [21:52] ---     But from now on, we're going to     decide our worth for ourselves. [21:56] ---     ...liberate the Sarkaz? [22:00] ---     Is that so weird? [22:03] ---     It's not weird, is it?
