[00:06] ---
Tell me.
[00:07] ---
Are you prepared to die?
[00:14] ---
No Yethma who reaches the royal capital
has ever come out again.
[00:18] ---
Same goes for her chabirone.
[00:20] ---
That place is a closed-off, unknown world.
[00:22] ---
No one has any idea what's going on inside.
[00:26] ---
It could be that you're only going there
to be killed.
[00:28] ---
So, do you still want to go
to the royal capital?
[00:33] ---
Oink.
[00:36] ---
All right...
[00:37] ---
then take these.
[00:39] ---
They're the same
as the ones Rossi's wearing.
[00:45] ---
They can control water, create ice
and make changes to the terrain.
[00:56] ---
If there's a lot of water available,
[00:57] ---
you can even create a swamp
that'll trip people up.
[01:00] ---
You need to get a feel
for how to use them.
[01:02] ---
Practice on the way.
[01:11] ---
To be honest...
[01:13] ---
although...
[01:14] ---
I hate Yethma hunters
enough to murder them...
[01:17] ---
I've never actually killed one.
[01:20] ---
Five years ago...
[01:22] ---
when I went to get that collar back...
[01:24] ---
I did no more than...
[01:26] ---
immobilize one weakling
and smash one of his eyes.
[01:30] ---
I was totally outnumbered...
[01:32] ---
and had no other choice but to run.
[01:35] ---
So...
[01:37] ---
the next time...
[01:39] ---
I take on the Yethma hunters...
[01:41] ---
I don't know if you'll be able
to escape to safety.
[01:45] ---
Look, I know you're smart.
[01:50] ---
I want you to use these tools
to come to my aid along with Rossi.
[01:57] ---
Do you have any questions
or something you want to say?
[02:00] ---
Grunt!
[02:13] ---
Worst-case scenario...
[02:15] ---
I might even have to sacrifice you.
[02:21] ---
If that happens, you decide.
[02:27] ---
Whether it'll be you who dies...
[02:29] ---
or Jess who dies.
[02:35] ---
That choice is up to you.
[04:14] ---
Once we've crossed,
we'll be in the Needle Woods.
[04:17] ---
The royal capital is in the center.
[04:30] ---
Are you okay?
[04:44] ---
Please don't mind me.
[05:13] ---
Can you see that red star...
[05:14] ---
in the northern sky?
[05:19] ---
That's the wishing star...
[05:20] ---
Salvia.
[05:22] ---
They say that if you can get your hands
on that star, your wishes will come true.
[05:27] ---
My wishes...
[05:51] ---
That's...
[05:53] ---
the royal capital?
[05:54] ---
Yeah.
[06:00] ---
You guys, have you ever heard about this?
[06:03] ---
The mushrooms that grow around here
start glowing faintly at night.
[06:07] ---
I've heard that before.
[06:09] ---
No one really knows
why they glow, right?
[06:13] ---
No.
[06:14] ---
A local hunter told me why.
[06:20] ---
See, what's glowing is the Yethma blood
that got absorbed by the mushrooms.
[06:26] ---
There's a small village up ahead.
[06:28] ---
We'll be staying at an inn there tonight.
[06:35] ---
Hey...
[06:36] ---
That collar's black.
[06:38] ---
You're right, it is!
[06:40] ---
When it's being tended by someone
who protects the Yethmas, it glitters...
[06:44] ---
but when evil approaches,
the collar turns black.
[06:48] ---
I thought that was how it worked.
[06:50] ---
The Needle Woods
is like a hotbed for Yethma hunters.
[06:53] ---
Starving scoundrels run rampant here,
and scores of Yethmas lose their lives.
[06:58] ---
The air is rife with malevolence
in this area.
[07:01] ---
Something that shade of black
is probably way on the lighter side.
[07:07] ---
You two and...
[07:09] ---
I mean, you three and I
will be going our separate ways tomorrow.
[07:13] ---
Once you enter the royal capital,
you'll never see me again as long as you live.
[07:16] ---
Needless to say,
if you die, that'll be it.
[07:19] ---
I'm going to drink up!
[07:20] ---
You guys order whatever you want.
[07:23] ---
That's the kind of place this inn is.
[07:26] ---
The Last Supper, huh?
[07:29] ---
All right, to prepare for tomorrow—
[07:30] ---
I'm sorry.
[07:33] ---
I...
[07:34] ---
would like to excuse myself and go to bed.
[07:38] ---
I'm fatigued...
[07:40] ---
and have no appetite.
[07:49] ---
Go sleep in our room.
[07:50] ---
Rossi will be close by,
keeping an eye on you.
[08:10] ---
Come on, let's dig in now.
[08:12] ---
Yes!
[08:17] ---
It's delicious!
[08:18] ---
Look, Mister Pig!
[08:20] ---
I think this is quail meat!
[08:22] ---
It's seasoned with salt and herbs,
so here's just a little taste! There!
[08:30] ---
This is amazing!
It's like pricey yakitori!
[08:33] ---
"Yakitori"?
[08:34] ---
Yeah, that's a local dish from my country!
[08:37] ---
Oh, is that right?
[08:38] ---
So, in your country, too...
[08:43] ---
Do you think we can bring this to our room?
[08:48] ---
She said she had no appetite, but I think
this is something that Miss Blaise could—
[08:52] ---
Yeah! She just might be able to eat it!
[09:01] ---
Hey, do you mind?
[09:04] ---
I want to discuss priorities.
[09:07] ---
The way I see it...
[09:08] ---
human or Yethma or whatever...
[09:11] ---
if you have a soul, all lives are equal.
[09:15] ---
But... tomorrow, if it so happens
that we can only save either you or Blaise...
[09:20] ---
only one or the other...
[09:26] ---
then we're going to pick you
without a second thought.
[09:34] ---
Mister Naut...
[09:36] ---
- What are you...
- You just saw for yourself.
[09:38] ---
Right now, she's anguished...
[09:41] ---
and she's barely showing any will to live.
[09:44] ---
But...
[09:46] ---
But you're not like that, Jess!
[09:50] ---
Of course...
[09:51] ---
our top priority is to protect all lives.
[09:54] ---
But if we find ourselves
in a hopeless situation...
[09:56] ---
protecting your life is going to take
precedence over everything else.
[10:03] ---
You can't do that!
[10:05] ---
That would be...
[10:07] ---
That would be too harsh on Miss Blaise!
[10:09] ---
So...
[10:11] ---
Jess...
[10:13] ---
I'm your chabirone, Jess.
[10:17] ---
To protect your life.
[10:19] ---
That's my reason for being here.
[10:23] ---
I'm not sure what it is that I can do.
[10:26] ---
But in my mind...
[10:27] ---
I already have the resolve to do it.
[10:29] ---
Mister P-P-Pig...
[10:37] ---
Oh...
[10:38] ---
I'm so sorry.
[10:40] ---
No one's ever said
such a thing to me before...
[10:44] ---
so I don't know what to do.
[10:47] ---
Just let yourself be happy about it.
I'd like that better than anything.
[10:54] ---
Then, I'll be happy.
[11:04] ---
But... what Mister Naut just said...
[11:09] ---
I'd feel bad for Miss Blaise.
[11:12] ---
I just can't...
[11:20] ---
I once had a dream.
[11:23] ---
To go to the royal capital
as a certain someone's chabirone...
[11:27] ---
and live by her side for the rest of my life.
[11:33] ---
Her bones...
[11:35] ---
are part of these twin swords.
[11:38] ---
If you think that's dumb,
then mock me all you want!
[11:42] ---
But you see...
[11:44] ---
you look so much like her.
[11:50] ---
I want to at least see you safely
to the royal capital.
[11:54] ---
I want you to live the life
that she didn't get to...
[11:57] ---
even if she'd wanted to.
[12:03] ---
Thank you so much, Mister Naut.
[12:13] ---
Of course, I plan
on making it home alive, too.
[12:16] ---
I wouldn't want to make Ceres cry.
[12:19] ---
Right!
[12:21] ---
Let's all survive
to the end of this journey!
[12:31] ---
What are you always up to here, Big Sis?
[12:36] ---
I am praying.
[12:38] ---
To the wishing star.
[12:39] ---
Oh, really?
[12:41] ---
But you know what? I hate that star!
[12:43] ---
Do you really?
[12:45] ---
Even if you tell it what you want,
it never gives you anything!
[12:49] ---
And there's no way to actually get
your hands on a star, is there?
[12:54] ---
That's exactly why I pray.
[12:58] ---
Because I don't believe
it could ever come true...
[13:01] ---
since there's no hope. That's why I pray.
[13:04] ---
No one ever prays for a star within reach.
[13:07] ---
We pray because it's out of reach.
[13:12] ---
And it's while you're praying...
[13:15] ---
that you can forget about everything
and focus on your wish.
[13:26] ---
I hear you're about to turn 16.
[13:29] ---
Yes. I'll be leaving here
and will be heading to the royal capital.
[13:32] ---
I see.
[13:34] ---
Listen.
[13:35] ---
I heard a rumor.
[13:37] ---
They say there is something strange
about the royal capital.
[13:49] ---
Are you going now?
[13:50] ---
Yes.
[13:51] ---
So, I'm never seeing you again.
[13:55] ---
One last thing before I go.
[13:58] ---
When you find yourself at a loss...
[14:02] ---
you should search for a star to guide you.
[14:06] ---
Salvia is a wishing star
precisely because it's far off in the northern sky.
[14:12] ---
When you've lost your way, the wishing star
will show you the direction to take.
[14:17] ---
And in the same way,
when you've lost sight of how to live...
[14:22] ---
you should search
for a wishing star of your own.
[14:27] ---
Right, I see.
[14:38] ---
I'd lost hope long ago.
[14:41] ---
I already knew from the start.
[14:46] ---
On my journey...
[14:48] ---
I was always walking
with my back to the wishing star.
[15:04] ---
That's right.
[15:07] ---
I'd known all along
that this was going to happen.
[15:12] ---
Over and over... Over and over...
[15:15] ---
Terrible things were done to me.
[15:18] ---
Throughout it all...
[15:20] ---
over and over, over and over,
I continued to pray.
[15:28] ---
After they'd brought me to Munires...
[15:31] ---
I was unable to see the star
while I was in the dungeon.
[15:34] ---
And yet I prayed.
[15:37] ---
I knew no one would come to rescue me.
[15:40] ---
But in order not to get swallowed up
by my fears...
[15:43] ---
in order not to get crushed by despair...
[15:45] ---
I continued to pray.
[15:50] ---
And then...
[15:52] ---
you all appeared before me.
[15:55] ---
Mister Naut...
[15:57] ---
opened the cage and held me close.
[16:01] ---
That was the first time...
[16:04] ---
I'd ever been held so tightly.
[16:09] ---
I...
[16:11] ---
no longer have the strength
to keep holding onto hope.
[16:16] ---
But...
[16:19] ---
surely, those people...
[16:26] ---
Noble Pig...
[16:27] ---
Noble Pig...
[16:29] ---
Could you please wake up?
[16:36] ---
What's going on?
[16:38] ---
I'd like to talk to you.
[16:45] ---
I'm sorry to disturb you
when you were at rest.
[16:48] ---
No, it's all good.
I'm used to this kind of scenario.
[16:52] ---
So, what's on your mind?
[16:54] ---
You can tell me anything.
[16:57] ---
Wh-Wh-What's this?
[16:59] ---
Please forgive me for being rude.
[17:02] ---
But it's a bit cold out here.
[17:05] ---
I see. Gotcha.
[17:09] ---
Noble Pig...
[17:10] ---
You've come here
from another world, right?
[17:13] ---
Well, I guess so.
[17:15] ---
I came from a world
that's totally different than this one.
[17:18] ---
If you don't mind,
could you tell me about that world?
[17:23] ---
Oh, is that all?
[17:25] ---
Fine.
[17:26] ---
What do you want me to talk about, then?
[17:30] ---
Is it true that in your world...
[17:32] ---
women with small breasts are preferred?
[17:37] ---
My bad! I mean, I...
[17:39] ---
It's true that I prefer small ones.
[17:42] ---
But not really.
[17:43] ---
I'm sure...
[17:45] ---
that no one ever tempts men
because her breasts happen to be large.
[17:53] ---
Yeah, that's true!
[17:55] ---
No one!
[17:56] ---
Most guys probably
wouldn't give you a second look.
[17:59] ---
Is that right?
[18:00] ---
So, such a world exists?
[18:04] ---
When I die tomorrow...
[18:06] ---
if only I could be reborn into that world,
nothing would make me happier.
[18:10] ---
Don't talk like that. It's bad luck.
[18:13] ---
You shouldn't just give up all hope.
[18:15] ---
The household I used to serve...
[18:18] ---
was a family of gravekeepers.
[18:20] ---
"There must be another world
beyond all those stars."
[18:25] ---
That thought would cross my mind.
[18:28] ---
So...
[18:29] ---
since you came here
from beyond the stars, Noble Pig...
[18:32] ---
I'd like you to hear my final prayer.
[18:40] ---
Please look at this.
[18:44] ---
What's that?
[18:46] ---
In the basement of that church...
[18:48] ---
they removed...
[18:50] ---
my internal organs.
[18:51] ---
What?
[18:53] ---
By the time you all came to my rescue...
[18:57] ---
it was already too late.
[19:03] ---
Let's go talk to Naut and Jess!
[19:05] ---
There might be a way to fix you!
[19:08] ---
Please don't tell them about this.
[19:11] ---
Mister Naut is such a kind person...
[19:15] ---
so he's sure to put himself into danger
trying to save my life.
[19:20] ---
But if we use a black rista—
[19:21] ---
To heal someone with a black rista, you must
absolutely have an attachment to that person.
[19:27] ---
You wouldn't be able to heal me.
[19:30] ---
I don't need to make it
to the royal capital.
[19:34] ---
I'm offering my life to you and Miss Jess.
[19:39] ---
What are you...
[19:42] ---
Death will be my salvation.
[19:47] ---
I happened to be born a Yethma...
[19:51] ---
and with this body,
with this face, with this voice...
[19:55] ---
I ended up tempting
everyone around me, so I'm to blame.
[19:59] ---
You're wrong about that! Of course the people
who exploit the Yethmas are the ones to blame!
[20:08] ---
So, that's how people see it
in your world, Noble Pig.
[20:11] ---
Darn right!
[20:13] ---
When I die...
[20:15] ---
please take me to your world, Noble Pig.
[20:18] ---
That is my...
[20:20] ---
final wish.
[20:24] ---
I got here without praying.
[20:27] ---
There's no reason you couldn't make it over there
when you've been praying all long.
[20:32] ---
You can reincarnate yourself
into my world for sure!
[20:36] ---
Thank you very much.
[20:47] ---
Let's head back now.
[20:49] ---
It would be too risky to be away
from our room for too long.
[20:55] ---
Please wait.
[20:57] ---
Just one more thing.
[21:00] ---
When I was working
as a gravekeeper...
[21:03] ---
I once heard something strange.
[21:06] ---
Something strange?
[21:10] ---
I was told that the royal capital
has no entrance.
[21:13] ---
Huh?
[21:14] ---
That's why...
[21:16] ---
all Yethmas end up dying
in the Needle Woods.
[21:19] ---
Wh-What's that supposed to mean?
[21:21] ---
Then, what was the point
of us risking everything to...
[21:24] ---
Apparently, there is a way to enter.
[21:27] ---
Not that a Yethma who entered the royal capital
has ever appeared outside of it.
[21:32] ---
Even so, somewhere along the way,
[21:34] ---
people started hearing this rumor
about the way to get inside the royal capital.
[21:40] ---
What is it?
[21:41] ---
"Appeal to the king."
[21:43] ---
Don't Laugh
at Someone's Prayers
[21:48] ---
Is that all?
[21:50] ---
Yes.
[21:52] ---
There's only one way for a Yethma
to enter the royal capital.
[21:55] ---
I'm told it's to appeal to the king.
[21:58] ---
Does that mean you have to shout
toward the royal capital?
[22:01] ---
I don't know.
[22:02] ---
But...
[22:04] ---
I thought that if this could help you
in some small way...
[22:10] ---
Please.
[22:11] ---
Please, I beg of you.
[22:16] ---
No matter what...
[22:18] ---
I want you all to live...
[22:20] ---
and to find happiness.
