[00:09] Gaff
    Belle.
[00:10] Belle
    Hmm?
[00:11] Gaff
    I hear Adonis appeared
    in the castle the other day.
[00:13] Belle
    Adonis did?
[00:15] Gaff
    Yes. It seems he had a secret
    audience with the king.
[00:19] Belle
    Why are you telling me?
[00:23] Gaff
    He and I are at odds over
    the disposition of a sword.
[00:27] Gaff
    A treasured heirloom of the
     Katakombe's Collins clan, I believe.
[00:32] Gaff
    I fought Tom Collins to claim it.
[00:38] Belle
    What kind of sword is it?
[00:41] Gaff
    It bears a striking resemblance to
    my Emoclew, sword of the kingdom.
[00:43] Signs
    Emoclew
    Kingdom
[00:47] Gaff
    It has this spell engraved on it.
[00:55] Belle
    So that whole battle was over this sword?
[01:00] Gaff
    That was our god's command,
[01:03] Gaff
    though I cannot fathom the intent.
[01:06] Gaff
    In any case, having seized it,
[01:09] Gaff
    I'd hoped to pass it to Tom Collins's
     youngest son, Adonis.
[01:14] Belle
    Then just give it to him already.
[01:17] Gaff
    I've set a condition.
[01:19] Gaff
    He must surrender every
     sword he's taken so far.
[01:23] Belle
    What?!
[01:24] Belle
    There's no way he'd ever agree to that!
[01:27] Gaff
    Unless he does, he can never
    take his place as Prince Fatal
[01:32] Gaff
    and support this kingdom
    with me, back to back.
[01:35] Belle
    Him, become the younger prince?
[01:37] Gaff
    Yes.
[01:38] Gaff
    It's the natural conclusion of climbing
    the ranks of solists as he did.
[01:43] Belle
    Wow.
[01:45] Belle
    "Prince Adonis," huh?
[01:47] Belle
    I guess that makes you Prince Fortuné.
[01:50] Gaff
    Hence why I must resolve this matter swiftly.
[01:54] Gaff
    Belle?
[01:56] Belle
    Oh, it's just...
[01:57] Belle
    some stuff's happened between us.
[02:00] Belle
    But I hear you.
[02:01] Gaff
    I'm counting on you.
[02:03] Belle
    I've been meaning to have
    another talk with him anyway.
[02:10] Belle
    He's the kind of idiot who
     never wants to admit he's hurt,
[02:16] Belle
    so I want to teach him what pain is.
[02:21] Belle
    I think I'm up to it now.
[03:50] Sign
    Bye Bye, Earth
[03:52] Sign
    Bye Bye, Earth
[03:57] Noble 1
    Aren't they...?
[03:59] Noble 2
    From the Katakombe battle!
[04:01] Noble 3
    Really? They're petitioning?
[04:03] Noble 4
    So the rumors say.
[04:05] Belle
    Remember riding a turtle in these getups?
[04:09] Bennett
    That was the first time we met, wasn't it?
[04:14] Gwyn
    I poured all my effort into
    stifling my feelings back then.
[04:19] Gwyn
    Man, how I've changed.
[04:23] Belle
    Speaking of change...
[04:26] Belle
    I've changed a bit myself.
[04:28] Belle
    Can you tell how?
[04:29] Bennett
    Well...
[04:29] Gwyn
    What could it be?
[04:31] Belle
    I've gotten taller!
[04:33] Gwyn
    Oh?
[04:33] Bennett
    You don't say.
[04:35] Belle
    It's true!
[04:37] Belle
    The designer who tailored
    this uniform said so.
[04:40] Belle
    My bust's gotten a little bigger too!
[04:43] Gwyn
    Oho!
[04:44] Bennett
    Well, well!
[04:47] Belle
    Jerks.
[04:49] Sherry
    Belle!
[04:51] Belle
    Hey, Sherry!
[04:53] Sherry
    You look so gallant, Belle.
[04:55] Sherry
    It's simply wonderful.
[04:56] Belle
    You look nice and pretty too.
[04:58] Belle
    That's a vocalist uniform, right?
[05:00] Belle
    It looks great on you.
[05:03] Bennett
    A bold solist and graceful vocalist...
[05:06] Bennett
    You make a lovely pair.
[05:07] Sherry
    My.
[05:08] Gwyn
    Straight out of a swashbuckling tale.
[05:10] Bennett
    Just imagine if Belle were a man.
[05:13] Gaff
    We may have contended for the
    heart of our singing princess.
[05:18] Belle
    Huh?
[05:18] Gwyn
    In that case, we would have to take
     the fall for a crime on Belle's behalf.
[05:24] Bennett
    Such stories always unfold that way.
[05:32] Gaff
    I see Belle has fine sword friends.
[05:35] Bennett
    Yes. People we can trust
    to watch our backs in a fight.
[05:41] Gaff
    Is that so?
[05:42] Gaff
    I applaud your spirit, although you're
    as eccentric as the rumors say.
[05:47] Belle
    I know, right?
[05:48] Belle
    Gaff, thanks for today.
[05:50] Gaff
    It was nothing.
[05:51] Gaff
    Still, you've certainly come
    dressed to make a statement.
[05:55] Gwyn
    I can give you a suit to match, if you'd like.
[05:58] Sherry
    Oh? Then I'd like one as well.
[06:01] Sherry
    Please? It would mean so much to me.
[06:04] Gaff
    I don't know about that, Sherry...
[06:11] Gaff
    It appears the time is ripe.
[06:33] Gwyn
    I am Gwyn, middle grade
    conductor of solists!
[06:37] Gwyn
    I have come today by grace of Lead
    Solist Gaff to make a humble appeal.
[06:47] Gwyn
    We wish for the Katakombe
    to become neutral ground.
[06:51] Gwyn
    O King Rawhide!
[06:53] Gwyn
    Come! Reveal yourself to us!
[07:02] Gaff
    Your Majesty, please hearken to their
    voices, the voices of your people!
[07:15] Belle
    What's wrong, Bennett?
[07:17] Bennett
    I can hear them.
[07:18] Belle
    Huh?
[07:21] Bennett
    How many hundreds are there
    on the other side of that curtain?
[07:32] Sherry
    No!
[07:37] Gaff
    Sherry?!
[07:39] Sherry
    As divine priestess, I relay a message...
[07:43] Belle
    A divine summons!
[07:44] Sherry
    In this castle dwells a Nidhogg
[07:48] Sherry
    who would endanger the people.
[07:50] Gaff
    What?!
[07:51] Sherry
    Though dwelling within our god,
    he has revealed his wicked nature
[07:59] Sherry
    and now shatters all bonds.
[08:03] Sherry
    His name...
[08:07] Bennett
    Run, Gwyn!
[08:22] Belle
    Is that King Rawhide?!
[08:35] Belle
    What the hell...?!
[08:38] Bennett
    Gwyn!
[08:39] Bennett
    That thing ate Gwyn!
[08:41] Sherry
    In the voice of god, I command you...
[08:45] Sherry
    Wield Sagittarius to slay
    the maddened Nidhogg king!
[08:51] Belle
    What does that mean?!
[08:53] Signs
    Sagittarius
    Song of Destruction
[08:53] Gaff
    It's the name of a song!
[08:54] Gaff
    A song of destruction that exists
    only to destroy all buildings!
[08:58] Sherry
    To sing, I name Sherry,
[09:01] Sherry
    divine vocalist and Princess Veronette.
[09:07] Gaff
    Sherry!
[09:07] Bennett
    Here he comes!
[09:17] Belle
    Damn it!
[09:18] Good King
    Little one...
[09:20] Belle
    Huh?
[09:21] Belle
    King Rawhide?!
[09:23] Good King
    End us.
[09:25] Belle
    What?
[09:26] Good King
    You must not allow us to leave this hall...
[09:31] Good King
    Must not allow the people
    to behold this form.
[09:42] Good King
    End us.
[09:59] Gaff
    Sherry!
[10:00] Gaff
    The song of destruction!
[10:00] Gaff
    Hurry!
[10:01] Sherry
    No!
[10:03] Sherry
    I can't. My father...
[10:05] Gaff
    Sherry!
[10:06] Gaff
    It will spare him further suffering!
[10:09] Sherry
    No!
[10:11] Sherry
    If I do that, I'll...
[10:14] Sherry
    I'll never sing again.
[10:16] Belle
    I'll handle this, Gaff!
[10:18] Gaff
    No! That would go against our god's command!
[10:20] Belle
    The king asked me to!
[10:21] Belle
    He said to end him!
[10:23] Gaff
    No!
[10:41] Belle
    Damn it!
[10:42] Belle
    Where do I hit to kill him?!
[10:45] Bennett
    I found him!
[10:45] Bennett
    Belle!
[10:46] Bennett
    Gwyn is still alive!
[10:48] Bennett
    There!
[11:02] Belle
    I see it!
[11:03] Belle
    Runding!
[11:17] Belle
    What the...?
[11:24] Young Belle
    Why?
[11:27] Belle
    Are you...
[11:30] Belle
    me?
[11:32] Young Belle
    Why did you have to wake up?
[11:35] Young Belle
    You should have just stayed asleep.
[11:38] Young Belle
    Inside that rock. Forever.
[11:42] Belle
    What?!
[11:43] Young Belle
    Because you existed, we...
[11:49] Belle
    Huh?
[11:51] Young Belle
    Following survivor confirmation...
    shutdown program.
[11:59] Young Belle
    Engage life support.
[12:05] Young Belle
    Enhance physique in...
    withstand long-term cryogenic sleep.
[12:12] Young Belle
    All... game... will now indefinitely
    postpone shutdown programs
[12:18] Young Belle
    pending confirmation of survivor intent.
[12:23] Young Belle
    All... facilities will now commence
    generating livable environments.
[12:32] Young Belle
    Releasing life forms for generation
    of evolutionary environment to...
[12:40] Young Belle
    Setting our reason for being
    to this individual.
[12:49] Young Belle
    Girl of reason,
[12:51] Young Belle
    because you woke up...
[12:57] Young Belle
    Why?
[13:08] Belle
    What happened?
[13:22] Belle
    What the hell did I cut?
[13:27] Bennett
    Gwyn!
[13:30] Bennett
    Hey! Are you all right, Gwyn?!
[13:32] Bennett
    Open your eyes! Gwyn!
[13:38] Bennett
    Gwyn!
[13:40] Belle
    He'll be fine.
[13:41] Bennett
    Belle?
[13:43] Belle
    He's only dreaming.
[13:46] Bennett
    Dreaming?
[13:47] Belle
    The dream the divine tree has.
[13:50] Belle
    Like I dreamed in that stone egg.
[13:59] Gaff
    I don't believe it.
[14:03] Sherry
    How could this...
[14:07] Sherry
    Father...
[14:09] Belle
    What?!
[14:10] Gaff
    Make no mistake.
[14:11] Gaff
    That is King Rawhide.
[14:13] Gaff
    He offered himself to the divine tree.
    To think we would recover him like this...
[14:17] Gaff
    Did you do this?
[14:19] Belle
    Huh? No.
[14:21] Belle
    I just cut...
[14:23] Sherry
    Oh, to have the father I know
    here like this at the end...
[14:31] Sherry
    Thank you, Belle.
[14:33] Sherry
    Thank you.
[14:35] Belle
    I didn't really—
[14:37] Adonis
    You sublated his existence.
[14:39] Belle
    Huh?
[14:42] Belle
    A...
[14:44] Belle
    Adonis!
[14:50] Adonis
    I'm impressed.
[14:51] Adonis
    You sublated the Nidhogg's very
    existence without cutting its body?
[14:56] Signs
    Sublate
    Aufheben
[14:57] Adonis
    That must be what your curse demands,
[15:01] Adonis
    the point where it changes into a blessing.
[15:04] Gaff
    What are you trying to say, Adonis?
[15:06] Adonis
    God hasn't finished speaking.
[15:10] Belle
    Sherry?
[15:12] Sherry
    Within the divine order, I command you...
[15:16] Sherry
    One has defied the word of god
     and swung a cruel sword.
[15:22] Signs
    Paradox
    The Outlawed
[15:22] Sherry
    You shall deem her a
    paradox and imprison her.
[15:27] Sherry
    Likewise to those whose appeal
     has disturbed the divine order.
[15:33] Sherry
    Oh, Belle!
[15:37] Gaff
    Sherry!
[15:41] Belle
    H-Hang on!
[15:44] Bennett
    Gwyn, was this part of your script, too?
[15:49] Belle
    Hey, Gaff!
[15:50] Gaff
    I'll do something for you soon.
[15:52] Belle
    Huh?
[15:52] Gaff
    Endure it for now, Belle.
[15:57] Belle
    Are you kidding me?!
[15:59] Belle
    Don't you point your swords at me!
[16:01] Bennett
    Stop!
[16:02] Bennett
    We should go quietly and—
[16:02] Belle
    Look at me!
[16:03] Belle
    Gaff!
[16:06] Belle
    Adonis!
[16:10] Belle
    That sword...
[16:15] Adonis
    Rusty Nail.
[16:18] Adonis
    Gaff, the divine summons didn't
    specify who should fight.
[16:23] Gaff
    Adonis, do you mean...?
[16:25] Adonis
    Give me the order.
[16:26] Adonis
    Do it as a noble of this castle! Hurry!
[16:30] Gaff
    Adonis,
[16:32] Gaff
    I leave Belle to you.
[16:34] Adonis
    I hear and obey, Prince Fortuné.
[16:36] Belle
    What? Gaff!
[16:39] Adonis
    Belle,
[16:40] Adonis
    can you cut me?
[16:43] Belle
    Move.
[16:50] Belle
    Do you realize why we're here right now?
[16:56] Adonis
    No idea.
[16:57] Adonis
    But it's too late. For anything.
[17:01] Adonis
    I made sure of that.
[17:03] Belle
    You...
[17:04] Belle
    You did this?
[17:06] Belle
    You caused this mess?
[17:10] Belle
    You dumb bastard!
[17:35] Belle
    He's strong...
[17:38] Belle
    He's holding his sword barehanded?
[17:45] Belle
    Is that sword your answer?
[17:49] Belle
    Then here's mine!
[17:57] Adonis
    Can you cut me?
[17:59] Belle
    Our swords will decide how this ends!
[18:08] Belle
    Did I cut it?
[18:19] Belle
    Runding?!
[18:23] Belle
    No!
[18:24] Belle
    I know I broke it!
[18:26] Adonis
    This sword is forever withering.
[18:28] Adonis
    No sword in existence can
    destroy Rusty Nail's blade.
[18:34] Belle
    It's consumed mine!
[18:35] Belle
    That sword ate Runding's power!
[18:40] Belle
    What?
[18:42] Adonis
    Two swords from the same
    maker are resonating.
[18:46] Adonis
    Your sword is forever being born.
[18:49] Adonis
    My blade is drawn to Runding's.
[18:52] Belle
    What?!
[18:53] Belle
    Damn it!
[18:55] Belle
    So that's what your curse really does!
[18:59] Belle
    I guess you finally found
    a sword to suit your hands!
[19:02] Adonis
    And at the same time,
    the form of my blessing.
[19:11] Belle
    You expect me to believe that disgusting
    sword is Runding's brother?!
[19:22] Young Belle
    Why?
[19:24] Adonis
    So that's the form of your curse...
[19:28] Belle
    I've had it with your tricks!
[19:32] Belle
    I'll hack that thing to pieces,
    and you with it!
[19:35] Adonis
    Can you sublate my existence?!
[19:56] Belle
    Adonis...
[20:05] Adonis
    Just what I hoped for!
[20:07] Adonis
    Surpassing our swords' mortal shells
[20:10] Adonis
    is the future their makers
    entrusted to us, their wielders.
[20:23] Adonis
    If you can't even sublate me,
[20:25] Adonis
    how can you sublate a god?
[20:31] Belle
    It'll die.
[20:32] Belle
    Who will?
[20:33] Belle
    What will?
[20:34] Belle
    The sword.
[20:35] Belle
    My sword will die.
[20:39] Belle
    If I lose it, I'll despair and die.
[20:44] Belle
    I'll break.
[20:48] Adonis
    Girl of reason!
[20:54] Belle
    You...
[21:15] Belle
    Adonis!
[21:37] Belle
    A journey...
[21:44] Belle
    Let's go on a journey together, I said.
