[00:06] Yuriana
    Thank goodness the injury wasn't serious.
[00:10] Burckhardt
    My apologies.
[00:11] Burckhardt
    What was it that you wanted
    to talk to me about?
[00:15] Yuriana
    Burckhardt, I want you to go with Yuri.
[00:21] Burckhardt
    You want me to accompany them?
[00:23] Yuriana
    Yes.
[00:24] Burckhardt
    But weren't we to return to
    the Holy Capital and regroup?
[00:28] Yuriana
    That's the plan.
[00:30] Burckhardt
    Then I shall—
[00:31] Yuriana
    Listen.
[00:33] Yuriana
    I want you to assist Yuri's group
    in my stead.
[00:38] Burckhardt
    But I'm your—
[00:40] Yuriana
    You will surely prove to be
    invaluable to their cause.
[00:46] Burckhardt
    If you insist.
[00:49] Yuriana
    Also, about Aram...
[00:53] Yuriana
    I too think that he will make a fine soldier.
[00:56] Yuriana
    However, he lacks experience.
[00:59] Yuriana
    I want you to instruct him.
[01:06] Burckhardt
    Understood.
[01:09] Selene
    Your Highness.
SIGN    Guild Alliance Sub-Leader
    Selene
[01:12] Selene
    Our leader, Gilbert, wishes to see you.
[01:14] Yuriana
    I'm on my way.
[01:17] Yuriana
    Thank you.
[01:21] Burckhardt
    Is she saying I can't protect her
    with this injury?
[01:36] Gilbert
    I see. The Capital fell?
[01:40] Yuuri
    We lost a lot of people.
[01:46] Phoena
    Mr. Gilbert, I'm told you've had trouble
    at the Vice Capital, too.
[01:51] Gilbert
    It's nothing compared to
    what you deal with on the front lines.
SIGN    Guild Alliance Leader
    Gilbert
[01:55] Gilbert
    So why have you decided to form
    a Black King Suppression Army?
[01:59] Yuuri
    Well...
[02:02] Yuuri
    I believe there may still be hope.
[02:08] Yuuri
    Even if this land is doomed,
[02:13] Yuuri
    I don't want to give up until the very end.
[02:17] Gilbert
    That sounds like something you'd say.
[02:27] Gilbert
    So you're headed to the Sage's Tower, then?
[02:31] Yuuri
    Yes.
[02:32] .
    First, we'll meet with the three sages.
[02:35] Phoena
    We hope they'll have some leads
    as to Pirika's whereabouts.
[02:38] Gilbert
    Understood.
[02:40] Gilbert
    I'll do what I can to help.
[02:43] Gilbert
    But...
[02:45] Gilbert
    With things the way they are here,
[02:48] Gilbert
    I'm afraid that that may not amount to much.
[02:54] Selene
    I've brought Her Highness Juliana.
[02:56] Gilbert
    Perfect timing.
[02:59] Gilbert
    Here.
[03:01] Yuuri
    New communicators?
[03:03] Gilbert
    Yes.
[03:04] Gilbert
    Let us know if anything happens.
[03:07] Gilbert
    We'll do our best to get
    everything in order on this end.
[03:10] Yuriana
    Thank you, Mr. Gilbert.
[03:38] A
    Shut yer trap, damn it!
[03:43] Dusty
    Hey now, is that really a good idea?
[03:46] Dusty
    Do you really want to do that
    in front of the Great Arms Dealer Dusty?
[03:50] Dusty
    Either you have a death wish
    or you're just an—
[03:52] Allam
    Idiot!
[04:01] A
    Damn brat!
[04:04] Allam
    Are you all right?
[04:05] B
    Yes.
[04:08] A
    You little...
[04:12] A
    Damn it!
[04:19] Dusty
    Wow.
[04:22] A
    Why you...
[04:27] A
    Don't mess with me, kid!
[04:30] Allam
    Don't move, mister.
[04:39] Dusty
    That was impressive.
[04:42] Allam
    Who're you?
[04:43] Dusty
    I'm Dusty.
[04:45] Dusty
    I'm with the Merchant Guild.
    I supply arms to the Volunteer Army.
[04:49] Allam
    That outfit...
[04:51] Allam
    You aren't a soldier?
[04:53] Dusty
    Merchant-cum-soldier.
[04:55] Dusty
    That sword...
[04:58] Dusty
    It's the best one I have in stock.
    You've got a good eye.
[05:03] Allam
    Sorry.
[05:04] Allam
    I was just borrowing it.
[05:05] Allam
    Here, you can have it back.
[05:07] Dusty
    Say, kid...
[05:08] Allam
    I ain't a kid!
[05:09] Allam
    I'm Aram!
[05:11] Dusty
    My bad.
[05:12] Dusty
    All right, Aram, do you know
    what sort of sword that is?
[05:16] Allam
    Not really.
[05:17] Dusty
    It was forged by Baldur, renowned blacksmith
    and chief of the earth sprites.
[05:25] Allam
    This blade really is a beauty.
[05:28] Dusty
    I hear you've joined
    the Black King Suppression Army.
[05:31] Allam
    Yeah, I have.
[05:32] Allam
    Yuri wouldn't stop bugging me about it.
[05:34] Dusty
    Don't be so snotty about it.
[05:36] Dusty
    Yuri saw potential in you, didn't he?
[05:38] Dusty
    It's okay to be proud of that.
[05:42] Dusty
    All right, you can keep the sword.
[05:44] Dusty
    It's a gift. To commemorate your enlistment.
[05:47] Allam
    You sure?
[05:48] Dusty
    But remember this.
[05:50] Dusty
    A weapon reflects the soul of the user.
[05:53] Dusty
    Whether it becomes famous
    or forgotten is up to you.
[05:58] Dusty
    Don't forget that.
[05:59] Allam
    All right, I got it.
[06:01] Dusty
    Also, all good swords need a name.
[06:04] Dusty
    Give it a good one.
[06:08] Allam
    Yeah.
[06:12] Gilbert
    When one flower is infected,
    those around it are also affected.
[06:18] Gilbert
    The power of darkness is
    overwhelming the light in this world.
[06:23] Yuuri
    Then your illness...
[06:26] Gilbert
    Every time the Black Army gains more ground,
[06:29] Gilbert
    the blackening spreads further.
[06:32] Gilbert
    As you can see.
[06:36] Gilbert
    It's only a matter or time
    before my entire body is stained black.
[06:40] Gilbert
    When that happens...
[06:43] Gilbert
    I sometimes dream that
    I'm fighting alongside the Black Army.
[06:49] Yuuri
    You wouldn't...
[06:51] Yuuri
    We wouldn't let that happen.
[06:54] Gilbert
    I hope not.
[07:15] Burckhardt
    You're tensing up too much.
[07:20] Allam
    Are your injuries better now?
[07:22] Burckhardt
    In order to adapt to any given situation...
[07:27] Burckhardt
    You... What's with that sword?
[07:30] Allam
    This?
[07:32] Allam
    It's the Hiramekimaru.
[07:33] Allam
    Pretty cool, right?
[07:35] Burckhardt
    You misunderstand.
[07:36] Burckhardt
    I'm asking why you have such a sword.
[07:40] Allam
    What?
[07:41] Allam
    Someone gave it to me.
[07:42] Burckhardt
    Who did?
[07:43] Allam
    What does it matter?
[07:45] Burckhardt
    No-one would just give away
    such an exquisite blade for free.
[07:48] Allam
    What are you doing?
[07:50] Allam
    Well, someone did! That's all there is to it!
[07:52] Burckhardt
    Tell me the truth!
[07:53] Allam
    I am!
[07:55] Yuriana
    What's going on?
[07:57] Burckhardt
    Your Highness.
[07:59] Yuriana
    What's the matter?
[08:00] Burckhardt
    Ma'am.
[08:02] Burckhardt
    The boy had a sword unbefitting him.
[08:05] Burckhardt
    I thought he may have...
[08:07] Allam
    May have what?
[08:09] Burckhardt
    He may have stolen it from someone.
[08:11] Allam
    I'd never do that!
[08:16] Yuuri
    Why would you assume he stole it?
[08:22] Yuriana
    Anyway, let's hear what he has to say—
[08:25] Dusty
    He's not lying.
[08:27] Dusty
    I gave him that sword.
[08:31] Yuuri
    Is that true?
[08:33] Dusty
    To commemorate his enlistment,
[08:34] Dusty
    in the Black King Suppression Army.
[08:38] Yuuri
    Burckhardt.
[08:44] Burckhardt
    My apologies.
[08:48] Allam
    I'd never steal.
[08:53] Wayne
    Are you sure about this?
[08:56] Wayne
    Are you really going to have him
    accompany Yuri and the others?
[09:02] Yuriana
    I want him to understand Yuri better.
[09:06] Yuriana
    They'll establish a better bond that way.
[09:09] Yuriana
    We can become stronger.
[09:13] Wayne
    That may be true, but...
[09:16] Yuriana
    I'm sure he'll understand.
[09:31] Phoena
    Yuri.
[09:36] Phoena
    Um... Are you all right?
[09:39] Yuuri
    Yeah. I finally got some rest.
[09:43] Phoena
    I mean...
[09:45] Phoena
    Um...
[09:46] Phoena
    Your blacken—
[09:49] Yuuri
    You must be tired, too, Phoena.
[09:51] Yuuri
    You should get some rest while you can.
[09:56] Yuuri
    Who knows when we'll next
    have beds to sleep in.
[10:00] Phoena
    You're right.
[10:03] Yuuri
    Thank you, Phoena.
[10:11] Phoena
    Good night.
[10:22] Black
    Do you regret deciding to fight again?
[10:27] Yuuri
    There's still hope.
[10:30] Black
    Hope? What good does that do?
[10:33] Yuuri
    You need hope to win.
[10:36] Black
    How foolish.
[10:37] Black
    You can never defeat the Black King.
[10:40] Black
    You know that better than anyone.
[10:43] Yuuri
    Shut up.
[10:44] Black
    This land will be stained black.
[10:47] Black
    Its people shall fall into darkness.
[10:49] Yuuri
    Shut up!
[10:51] Black
    You are no more than a candle in the wind.
[11:06] Yuuri
    Aram.
[11:09] Yuuri
    So, what did you want to talk about?
[11:11] Allam
    Well...
[11:13] Allam
    Thanks for earlier.
[11:15] Allam
    For believing me.
[11:19] Allam
    I used to steal and stuff before.
[11:23] Allam
    But I don't do that anymore.
[11:26] Yuuri
    Aram, you said you wanted
    to become stronger.
[11:30] Yuuri
    If you become stronger, what will you do?
[11:32] Allam
    What else?
[11:33] Allam
    I'm going to take down
    those Black Army bastards.
[11:39] Allam
    They destroyed my village.
[11:45] Allam
    I've been alone ever since.
[11:47] Allam
    I'd wander around
    until I found a place to live,
[11:50] Allam
    but they'd always reappear
    and end up destroying that, too.
[11:53] Allam
    That's why I want to get stronger!
[11:55] Allam
    Please, teach me your technique.
[11:58] Allam
    I want to be able to use it!
[12:06] Yuuri
    Swordsmanship, character...
[12:09] Yuuri
    Becoming respected for either takes time.
[12:14] Yuuri
    Become a man worthy of this sword, Aram.
[12:20] Allam
    Yeah.
[12:23] Sylva
    Sorry about this.
[12:24] Sylva
    I'd love to come with you,
    but there's a lot I have to do here.
[12:30] Yuuri
    Sure, I know.
[12:32] Marina
    You've already been a great help.
[12:35] Marina
    All these supplies and rations...
[12:38] Selene
    Our leader has high hopes for you.
[12:41] Sylva
    Say, Princess.
[12:43] Sylva
    You're headed to
    the Holy Capital, are you not?
[12:46] Yuriana
    Yes. To see our comrades
    who have returned home.
[12:49] Yuriana
    I'm going to ask them to join
    the Black King Suppression Army.
[12:52] Sylva
    Think it will work?
[12:55] Yuriana
    Who knows? We have to try, though.
[13:00] Sylva
    I'll talk to the Guild people for you.
[13:04] Sylva
    I don't know how many will
    be on board, though.
[13:06] Yuriana
    Thank you.
[13:08] Sylva
    Oh, yeah, speaking of which...
[13:09] Sylva
    The Magic Guild leader, Aludra,
    said she'd be going with you.
[13:14] Michidia
    What? Really?
[13:15] Aludra
    Really.
[13:17] Yuuri
    Aludra.
SIGN    Universal Mage
    Aludra
SIGN    Dragon Slayer
    Vorg
[13:18] Yuuri
    And Vorg.
[13:20] Aludra
    Sorry I'm late.
    It took longer to prepare than I thought.
[13:23] Vorg
    It's not like you had that much to pack.
[13:26] Vorg
    It looks like we'll be
    working together again.
[13:28] Yuuri
    Yeah.
[13:30] Allam
    Your sword's awesome.
[13:33] Vorg
    You can tell, can you?
[13:35] Vorg
    This is the Dragon Killer.
[13:37] Vorg
    It's my life.
[13:39] Allam
    That thing about weapons
    reflecting the soul?
[13:41] Vorg
    You know your stuff, kid!
[13:43] Vorg
    I'm Vorg the Dragon Slayer.
[13:47] Allam
    Don't treat me like a kid!
[13:49] Vorg
    Whoops.
[13:52] Allam
    What's so funny?
[13:59] Yuriana
    Burckhardt...
[14:02] Yuriana
    If you spend some time traveling with
    Yuri's group, I'm sure you'll understand
[14:07] Yuriana
    just how trustworthy they are.
[14:10] Yuriana
    I'm counting on you.
[14:12] Burckhardt
    I understand.
[14:15] Yuriana
    Please check on the Maze Pass along the way.
[14:19] Yuuri
    Understood.
[14:20] Phoena
    Take care, Juliana.
[14:22] Kain
    Be sure to bring us as
    many people as you can.
[14:25] Yuriana
    I will.
[14:26] Yuriana
    You, too.
[14:38] A
    Mine.
[14:39] Allam
    No fair!
[14:41] ---
    My apple!
[14:41] Burckhardt
    How...
[14:43] Burckhardt
    How did things turn out like this?
[14:46] Burckhardt
    Why?
[14:47] Burckhardt
    Why am I here?
[14:53] Yuuri
    Burckhardt.
[14:55] Yuuri
    About yesterday...
[14:57] Burckhardt
    I understand that I was in the wrong.
[15:00] Yuuri
    Forget it. It's in the past.
[15:02] Yuuri
    That aside, I want you to train
    Aram in sword fighting again.
[15:07] Yuuri
    I'm sure you'd make a great instructor.
[15:09] Burckhardt
    Please excuse me.
[15:11] Burckhardt
    I don't feel so well.
    I'm going to get some fresh air.
[15:13] Yuuri
    Burckhardt...
[15:25] Burckhardt
    I don't get it.
[15:27] Burckhardt
    What did I do wrong?
[15:31] Burckhardt
    I serve only Her Highness Juliana.
[15:34] Burckhardt
    No one else.
[15:37] Burckhardt
    So why?
[15:41] Eirenus
    Are you the one who called me?
[15:47] Eirenus
    I've come for you.
[15:50] Burckhardt
    You...
[15:52] Eirenus
    I'm Eirenus.
[15:54] Eirenus
    I'm on your side.
    You ought to at least know my name.
[15:56] Burckhardt
    What are you talking about?
[16:02] Burckhardt
    You're almost there.
[16:05] Eirenus
    You witch!
[16:07] Eirenus
    Very well.
[16:09] Eirenus
    I'll stain you black myself.
[16:18] Eirenus
    What are you fighting for?
[16:22] Eirenus
    There's no one here for you to protect.
[16:26] Burckhardt
    I protect...
[16:30] Eirenus
    You've been abandoned.
[16:43] Yuuri
    What's wrong?
[16:44] Phoena
    The Chronicle...
[16:48] Yuuri
    There's Black Fog coming from the forest.
[16:50] Yuuri
    Burckhardt!
[16:52] Allam
    Yuri!
[16:57] Burckhardt
    She deemed me weak because I made a mistake.
[17:03] (Flashback) Yuriana
    I want you to go with Yuri.
[17:05] Burckhardt
    Juliana doesn't need me anymore.
[17:11] Burckhardt
    I've been discarded.
[17:20] Eirenus
    Go play with these!
[17:26] Vorg
    There you are.
[17:28] Vorg
    I'll kill you all!
[17:38] Allam
    Awesome.
[17:40] Allam
    I gotta keep up.
[17:50] Burckhardt
    I...
[17:51] Burckhardt
    Where do I belong?
[17:56] Black King
    Come to me.
[17:58] Black King
    You belong in a world engulfed in black.
[18:06] Burckhardt
    I...
[18:15] Yuriana
    Kain, Michidia, we're going to
    do a chain attack with Burckhardt.
[18:19] A
    Got it!
[18:30] Yuuri
    Seize the light!
[18:37] Yuuri
    Burckhardt!
[18:39] Burckhardt
    I...
[18:41] Burckhardt
    I belong...
[18:58] Eirenus
    Welcome to the world of darkness.
[19:05] Burckhardt
    I'm being released...
[19:07] Burckhardt
    from everything that held me down.
[19:10] Burckhardt
    I'm brimming with power.
[19:14] Burckhardt
    It's indescribable!
[19:17] Burckhardt
    I feel amazing.
[19:27] Allam
    Burckhardt...
[19:30] Aludra
    He's become a demon.
[19:49] Kain
    Captain!
[20:10] Eirenus
    That's enough.
[20:11] Eirenus
    I've only come today to bring you home.
[20:14] Eirenus
    We'll meet again, Yuri.
[20:17] Eirenus
    Next time...
[20:22] Vorg
    Wait!
