[00:11] Dahlia
    I didn't know the church
    could restore eyesight.
[00:14] Dahlia
    I should have had this done sooner.
[00:17] Dahlia
    It was a little expensive, though.
[00:30] Wolf
    Please pardon me for
    interrupting your leisure time.
[00:33] Wolf
    Is it possible that you are
    a relative of Mister Dali?
[00:36] Dahlia
    What? Um...
[00:39] Wolf
    Or could it be...
[00:41] Wolf
    It's you?

SIGN    Episode 5: Father's Gift
[02:17] Dahlia
    It's incredible that you
    recognized me as me.
[02:20] Wolf
    The way you averted your eyes seemed odd,
    plus there's the color of them.
[02:24] Wolf
    And the smell.
[02:25] Dahlia
    Smell?
[02:26] Wolf
    It's the same smell as
    when I was on the cart.
[02:29] Dahlia
    What?
[02:31] Wolf
    May I sit with you?
[02:33] Wolf
    Though, if you're waiting for
    your sweetheart, I'll relent.
[02:36] Dahlia
    Please, sit! I'm here alone.
[02:43] Wolf
    I was on my way to the Trade Guild...
[02:47] Wolf
    to look for you.
[02:48] Dahlia
    Huh?
[02:49] Wolf
    I planned to ask if they knew
    anyone who fit the description.
[02:52] Wolf
    I wanted to repay the cost of the
    potion, and to return your coat.
[02:56] Wolf
    So will you allow me to treat you today?
[02:58] Dahlia
    I-I, um...
[03:01] Wolf
    "If you see me around town, come say hi.
    I'll take you up on your offer then."
[03:09] Dahlia
    All right.
[03:12] Wolf
    If you have this wine chilled, we'll have that.
[03:15] Wolf
    If not, we'll have a wine
    cooler. Two glasses.
[03:18] Wolf
    Also a cheese assortment
    and a baguette, please.
[03:21] Wolf
    Miss Dali?
[03:22] Dahlia
    Yes?
[03:24] Wolf
    When we met in the forest, I didn't
    realize you were so beautiful.
[03:30] Dahlia
    Thank you for the lovely
    conversation-starting compliment.
[03:35] Wolf
    If you know of
    conversation-starting compliments,
[03:37] Wolf
    does that mean you're a noble, too?
[03:39] Dahlia
    My father was an honorary baron.
[03:41] Dahlia
    It must be tiring to have to
    compliment women you don't know.
[03:45] Wolf
    Yes, it can be difficult.
[03:49] Wolf
    I was wondering, why were you
    dressed as a man back then?
[03:53] Dahlia
    A woman alone in the
    forest isn't very safe.
[03:56] Wolf
    That's true.
[03:58] server; male
    Thank you for waiting.
[04:02] Wolf
    Well, let's make a toast.
[04:05] Wolf; Dahlia
    To our reunion.
[04:08] Dahlia
    Are your eyes all right now?
[04:11] Wolf
    Thankfully, I can see with perfect clarity.
[04:13] Dahlia
    I'm glad to hear that!
[04:17] Wolf
    That's crimson cattle.
    It's very popular lately.
[04:23] Dahlia
    It's so rich!
[04:25] Dahlia
    To pair with this, we'd need
    another wine. A red, maybe?
[04:29] Wolf
    You're right! Let's order a red next!
[04:34] Wolf
    You didn't get yelled at
    about the coat, did you?
[04:36] Dahlia
    No. My father has passed away.
[04:40] Wolf
    Then it's a memento? I'm so sorry!
[04:42] Dahlia
    Please, don't be.
[04:44] Wolf
    I'll return it after I've washed it.
    I didn't realize the lining was wyvern.
[04:48] Dahlia
    I just stuck some leftovers inside, that's all.
[04:50] Dahlia
    My father often caught it on things,
    so I wanted to reinforce it.
[04:53] Wolf
    Leftover wyvern?
[04:55] Dahlia
    It was just scrap material due for
    disposal! It wasn't expensive.
[04:59] Wolf
    Miss Dali, do you work in clothing
    or something to do with materials?
[05:04] Dahlia
    I haven't introduced myself properly, have I?
[05:08] Dahlia
    I'm Dahlia Rossetti, and I'm just
    starting out as a magic artificer.
[05:11] Wolf
    S-So I did all that talking about waterproof
    fabric to an expert in the field?
[05:16] Dahlia
    I was so happy to hear from
    someone who's using it!
[05:19] Dahlia
    You see, I'm the one who developed
    that waterproof fabric.
[05:22] Wolf
    You developed the waterproof fabric?
[05:25] Dahlia
    Next, I'm thinking of one that will be
    lighter and allow for more airflow.
[05:29] Wolf
    That would make camping much easier!
[05:31] Wolf
    O gods! Thank you for my
    meeting with Dahlia Rossetti!
[05:42] Wolf
    I'll go order more wine.
[05:44] Dahlia
    Oh, I can do that!
[05:46] Wolf
    Don't get up.
[05:57] Tobias
    Dahlia?
[06:04] Emilia
    Miss Dahlia!
[06:05] Dahlia
    Huh?
[06:06] Emilia
    I'm sorry! I've wanted to
    apologize all this time.
[06:10] Tobias
    Emilia! There's no need for that!
[06:13] Emilia
    But it's my fault you
    broke off your engagement!
[06:15] Emilia
    I'm truly so very sorry.
[06:17] ---
    It's not your fault, so just...
[06:19] ---
    I'm so sorry.
[06:21] Wolf
    Any lingering feelings?
[06:22] Dahlia
    None at all.
[06:26] Wolf
    Lady Dahlia.
[06:27] Tobias; background
    Please, don't cry.
[06:30] Wolf
    If your engagement has been broken,
[06:32] Wolf
    then you are currently unattached, yes?
[06:35] Wolf
    I give my thanks to the Goddess of Fortune.
[06:37] Wolf
    As you had not accepted my invitation,
    I was quite dismayed.
[06:41] Wolf
    But now, meeting you once more
    brings me heartfelt joy.
[06:46] Tobias
    Dahlia, who is he?
[06:48] Dahlia
    H-He's, um...
[06:52] Wolf
    Apologies.
[06:54] Wolf
    I am Wolfred Scalfaratto of
    the Knights of the Royal Palace.
[06:58] Tobias
    Scalfaratto?
[07:00] Emilia
    The house of the Earl of Water?
[07:01] Wolf
    Allow me to ask once more:
    Lady Dahlia, will you accompany me?
[07:10] Dahlia
    Thank you.
[07:12] Wolf
    More importantly, my dealing with things
    that way won't cause trouble for you, will it?
[07:16] Wolf
    He said he was from the
    Orlando Trade Company.
[07:20] Dahlia
    No trouble at all.
[07:22] Dahlia
    I was surprised by how
    smoothly you said all that.
[07:25] Wolf
    I didn't lie.
[07:27] Wolf
    You turned me down at the
    gates when I invited you out,
[07:30] Wolf
    and when your cart left, I said
    I wanted to speak with you again.
[07:33] Dahlia
    I couldn't hear you over the rain.
[07:35] Dahlia
    And I feel bad for doing what
    amounts to deceiving you.
[07:39] Wolf
    If I'd known you were a lady, I probably
    would have injured my eyes further.
[07:44] Wolf
    And I wouldn't have been
    able to taste the food.
[07:46] Wolf
    I wouldn't have been able to
    enjoy that white wine, either.
[07:50] Wolf
    Anyway, I'm worried that I've made
    you come with me against your will.
[07:54] Dahlia
    Not at all. He and I were engaged, but it
    was something our fathers arranged.
[07:58] Dahlia
    And before we got married,
    he said he'd found true love.
[08:02] Wolf
    True love? I don't think I
    understand what that means.
[08:07] Dahlia
    I'm the same.
[08:10] Wolf
    I'm stuck with the feeling of having
    good food and conversation interrupted.
[08:13] Wolf
    Would you like to accompany
    me to another place?
[08:16] Dahlia
    Actually, I hadn't eaten my fill yet, either.
[08:24] Wolf
    Do you mind if I activate this?
[08:27] Dahlia
    It's an anti-eavesdropping device, isn't it?
[08:30] Wolf
    I use it when I want to be able to speak freely.
[08:33] Dahlia
    I'm happy you feel that way,
[08:35] Dahlia
    but the son of an earl speaking freely?
[08:38] Wolf
    I suppose... it's the Great Water Reforms.
[08:40] Dahlia
    Yes, even first-years in primary
    school know of that accomplishment.
[08:45] Wolf
    I don't mean to deny my family's history,
[08:48] Wolf
    but I didn't contribute anything to it myself.
[08:50] Wolf
    And as the youngest, I've been left on my own,
    with no one guarding or shadowing me.
[08:55] Wolf
    I'm not comfortable with
    formality. Is that all right?
[08:59] Dahlia
    I don't know noble manners, so please
    speak however it's easiest for you.
[09:04] Wolf
    Thanks.
[09:06] Dahlia
    How is this anti-eavesdropping
    device built, I wonder?
[09:10] Wolf
    I've heard that it covers sounds with
    other sounds, so they offset each other.
[09:14] Wolf
    Do you make things like this, too?
[09:16] Dahlia
    I only make magical devices
    used in everyday life.
[09:20] Dahlia
    That device would fall to mages.
[09:22] Wolf
    Is that how it goes?
[09:26] Dahlia
    What is it?
[09:27] Wolf
    Nothing. You just seemed so happy
    looking at the magic device.
[09:32] Dahlia
    W-Well, your manner changed so
    drastically earlier. It surprised me!
[09:37] Wolf
    I thought I could use that
    to stop the conversation.
[09:40] Wolf
    But it's exhausting to keep it up for long.
[09:43] Wolf
    I wish my looks matched the casualness
    of my personality better.
[09:47] Dahlia
    You do look like someone a lot
    of people would try to speak to.
[09:50] Wolf
    Yes, I suppose so.
[09:53] Wolf
    Normally, I wear a coat with a hood or glasses.
[09:58] Wolf
    Today, I was hoping you would
    find me, so I tried to stand out.
[10:02] Dahlia
    I should have told you my name and arranged
    it so you could contact me through the Guild.
[10:08] Wolf
    I'm not criticizing you!
[10:11] Wolf
    It's really only that I truly
    wanted to speak with you again.
[10:19] Wolf
    When you imbue a device with
    magic, is it only one kind?
[10:22] Dahlia
    Normally, it's one kind per device.
[10:25] Dahlia
    Casting more than one kind at once falls
    under the purview of mages and alchemists.
[10:30] Wolf
    What happens with multiple types?
[10:32] Dahlia
    I think they layer the magics on top of each
    other, ensuring they won't repel each other.
[10:38] Wolf
    I thought that maybe strengthening and
    cleaning could both be cast on a sword.
[10:42] Wolf
    And something like weight reduction, too.
[10:45] Dahlia
    Mister Wolf!
[10:46] Dahlia
    Can a sword's guard and
    scabbard be changed out?
[10:49] Wolf
    Yes, because sometimes they break.
[10:51] Dahlia
    Wouldn't that mean they could
    be treated as separate items?
[10:54] Dahlia
    Couldn't you take them apart,
    cast strengthening on the blade,
[10:57] Dahlia
    add a cleaning function to the
    guard with water or wind magic,
[11:00] Dahlia
    and cast weight-reducing
    magic on the scabbard,
[11:02] Dahlia
    then put it all back together?
[11:04] Wolf
    That sounds amazing! It'd be
    like a fabricated magic sword!
[11:10] Wolf
    And it would make things
    easier for my unit.
[11:13] Dahlia
    You really love magic swords, don't you?
[11:16] Wolf
    Yeah.
[11:16] Wolf
    Things like magic swords and magic-imbued
    weapons have such dreams attached to them.
[11:20] Wolf
    Even just thinking about them is fun.
[11:22] Dahlia
    I'm the same! I love magic devices so much
    that just thinking about them is fun!
[11:30] Wolf
    Would it be all right
    if I called you "Dahlia"?
[11:32] Wolf
    I'd like for you to call me Wolf.
[11:34] Dahlia
    I don't mind if you call me that,
    but calling you that will be difficult.
[11:38] Wolf
    I'll have a notary public draw up papers that
    say nothing you call me will be disrespectful.
[11:43] Dahlia
    You're joking, right?
[11:45] Wolf
    I'm from the House of Scalfaratto,
[11:48] Wolf
    but I can't use the five fundamental
    magics, let alone water magic.
[11:51] Wolf
    One day, I'll be living in
    town with everyone else.
[11:54] Wolf
    You could say this is practice for that.
[11:57] Wolf
    Never mind that.
[11:58] Wolf
    If I brought you a sword,
    could you test that imbuing of magic?
[12:01] Dahlia
    Let's start with an
    inexpensive short sword.
[12:04] Dahlia
    And as for your name, for now....
[12:07] Dahlia
    I'll use it when it's just the two of us, Wolf.
[12:12] Wolf
    I'm glad to know you,
    magic artificer Dahlia.
[12:20] Dahlia
    You ended up walking me all
    the way home. I live there.
[12:24] Wolf
    I've seen it from afar.
[12:26] Wolf
    That's your house?
[12:28] Dahlia
    People call it the Green Tower.
[12:31] Dahlia
    Long ago, there was a wall for
    the royal palace near here.
[12:34] Dahlia
    When they tore it down, my grandfather was
    allowed to take the stones, and he built this.
[12:37] Wolf
    It's a house fit for a magic artificer.
[12:41] Wolf
    Here.
[12:43] Dahlia
    That's too much!
[12:44] Wolf
    No, I'd like you to accept it.
[12:47] Wolf
    If you don't, my unit will get mad at me.
[12:50] Dahlia
    All right.
[12:52] Wolf
    May I come the day after
    tomorrow to return your coat?
[12:55] Wolf
    When I do, would you like to go to the magic
    device shop in the north district with me?
[12:59] Dahlia
    Yes, I'd like that!
[13:00] Wolf
    I'll come before noon.
[13:02] Wolf
    The shop is in the noble quarter.
    It's called the Right Eye of the Goddess.
[13:05] Dahlia
    You can't enter that shop
    without an invitation.
[13:09] Wolf
    I'll be there with you,
    so we'll be able to go in.
[13:12] Dahlia
    All right.
[13:14] Dahlia
    Goodnight. Sweet dreams.
[13:20] Wolf
    Goodnight, Dahlia. Sweet dreams.
[13:27] (Flashback) Dahlia
    Honestly! Why do you leave
    your clothes everywhere?
[13:30] (Flashback) Dahlia
    Haven't I asked you to hang your things
    up after you've taken them off?
[13:33] (Flashback) Carlo
    Yeah, sorry.
[13:35] (Flashback) Dahlia
    You're so slovenly in everything
    that isn't your work.
[13:50] Gabriella
    You had a dream like that?
[13:52] Gabriella
    It sounds just like Carlo.
[13:53] Gabriella
    I'm certain he must be
    exasperating the gods right now.
[13:57] Dahlia
    It may be because I drank
    ale with Lord Wolfred.
[14:01] Gabriella
    That gentleman certainly
    does catch one's eye.
[14:04] Gabriella
    He's famous even among the nobility.
[14:06] Dahlia
    I think I understand why.
[14:08] Gabriella
    And you'll be going somewhere
    with Lord Scalfaratto?
[14:11] Dahlia
    He said he'd take me to the
    Right Eye of the Goddess.
[14:15] Gabriella
    They deal in magic devices meant for nobles,
    so I think it will be educational.
[14:19] Gabriella
    Take care on your excursion.
[14:21] Dahlia
    I will.
[14:32] Dahlia
    Good morning!
[14:34] Dahlia
    If I recall correctly,
    we were meeting before noon?
[14:37] Wolf
    I left early because it's a
    bit of distance to cover,
[14:39] Wolf
    and then I seem to have
    walked very quickly.
[14:42] Dahlia
    I'll go and get ready.
    Would you mind waiting a moment?
[14:45] Wolf
    It's my own fault for arriving too early.
[14:48] Wolf
    Here's the coat I borrowed.
[14:50] Wolf
    Thank you so much.
[14:52] Dahlia
    I'm glad it was useful to you.
[15:03] Dahlia
    I'm all right. I can get down by myself.
[15:06] Wolf
    I did it reflexively. I'm so sorry.
[15:09] Dahlia
    No, if that's the case, then thank you.
[15:15] Wolf
    I think I'll switch to glasses now,
    though they don't have much of an effect.
[15:20] girl 1
    Look! Isn't he gorgeous?
[15:21] girl 2
    Is that Lord Wolfred?
    Wait, who is that with him?
[15:24] girl 2
    Why would he be with...
[15:25] Wolf
    I'm sorry.
[15:26] Dahlia
    It doesn't bother me.
[15:28] Wolf
    Shall we go?
[15:35] Wolf
    The owner of the Right Eye of the Goddess
    is both a magic artificer and a baron.
[15:40] Dahlia
    Really? What's his name?
[15:42] Wolf
    Oswald Zola.
[15:44] Dahlia
    He developed the cold wind
    delivery device, didn't he?
[15:47] Dahlia
    My father taught me about that.
[15:48] Wolf
    I had no idea.
[15:50] Dahlia
    That magic device has existed
    since I was a child.
[15:52] Dahlia
    He's been a magic artificer
    for quite a long time.
[15:56] Wolf
    Within the shop, we abide by the
    way of the nobility, Lady Dahlia.
[15:59] Wolf
    Will you permit me to escort you?
[16:01] Dahlia
    If you would, please.
[16:09] Oswald
    Welcome and thank you for
    coming, Lord Wolfred.
[16:13] Oswald
    And what a beautiful young
    lady you have with you.
[16:16] Wolf
    Lady Dahlia Rossetti. A magic artificer
    to whom I am deeply indebted.
[16:20] Oswald
    I am Oswald Zola.
    Please, call me Oswald.
[16:25] Dahlia
    I am Dahlia Rossetti.
[16:27] Dahlia
    As I'm just starting out,
    I would appreciate your tutelage.
[16:30] Oswald
    Pardon me for asking, but was
    your father Lord Carlo Rossetti?
[16:35] Dahlia
    You knew my father?
[16:37] Oswald
    Yes, from secondary school.
[16:39] Oswald
    I saw him at gatherings
    of barons as well, but...
[16:43] Oswald
    I hope you don't find
    yourself too disheartened.
[16:46] Dahlia
    Thank you.
[16:48] Oswald
    Please, look around at
    your leisure, both of you.
[16:54] Wolf
    That's a new anti-eavesdropping
    device, isn't it?
[16:57] Oswald
    It's fashioned as a set of cufflinks.
[17:00] Oswald
    It's also possible to match
    the color to your wardrobe.
[17:03] Dahlia
    A tri-casting of anti-poison,
    anti-petrification, and anti-confusion?
[17:08] Oswald
    Many people such as knights and
    adventurers seek lighter items,
[17:12] Oswald
    so we have an alchemist
    create those for us.
[17:16] Dahlia
    That's a fairy crystal lamp, isn't it?
[17:19] Oswald
    It uses a magic crystal matrix.
[17:21] Oswald
    And perhaps to help the
    fairies hide themselves,
[17:24] Oswald
    it has a perception-blocking effect.
[17:29] Dahlia
    My father once imbued the window
    in my room with fairy crystal magic.
[17:34] Oswald
    I see.
[17:35] Dahlia
    Three gold coins went missing in one day.
[17:37] Dahlia
    It made me realize how difficult it was, even
    for my father, who'd made a fairy crystal lamp.
[17:46] Oswald
    I've grown much too absorbed in
    our conversation, Lady Dahlia.
[17:49] Oswald
    Please forgive me.
[17:51] Dahlia
    I-I'm sorry!
[17:53] Oswald
    Lord Wolfred, would you like to see
    the support accessories you ordered?
[17:58] Wolf
    Yes, please.
[18:00] Oswald
    A chain anklet with anti-poison,
    anemia prevention,
[18:04] Oswald
    as well as anti-petrification
    and anti-confusion. Two in total.
[18:07] Oswald
    We can adjust the sizing in
    the other room if you'd like.
[18:10] Wolf
    Yes.
[18:11] Wolf
    Lady Dahlia, I'll be right back.
[18:18] Oswald
    Lady Dahlia.
[18:20] Oswald
    From now on, please use this.
[18:23] Dahlia
    What is it?
[18:24] Oswald
    With this, you may come
    here whenever you please.
[18:29] Dahlia
    Why are you giving this to me?
[18:31] Oswald
    I owe a debt to Mister Carlo.
[18:34] Oswald
    He once said, "If my daughter
    ever comes to your shop,
[18:37] Oswald
    I hope you'll show her your magic devices."
[18:40] Oswald
    "But if she never does, then keep
    it a secret until you die."
[18:44] Dahlia
    My father said that?
[18:45] Oswald
    I'm so glad to have met you.
[18:48] Oswald
    When I make my way to the other side, I can
    tell Mister Carlo that I've repaid my debt.
[18:54] Dahlia
    May I ask about that?
[18:58] Oswald
    When I was young, my wife eloped with a worker
    from this shop and took our money with her.
[19:04] Oswald
    As I was debating whether I should close
    the shop or take on a large amount of debt,
[19:09] Oswald
    Mister Carlo came by.
[19:11] Dahlia
    I see.
[19:12] Oswald
    He took me drinking at a little stall.
[19:15] Dahlia
    Did he?
[19:17] Oswald
    The two of us had a grand time,
    each with an ale in hand.
[19:20] Oswald
    I told him absolutely everything.
[19:23] Oswald
    That my wife had left me.
    That she'd taken our money with her.
[19:28] Oswald
    Then, Mister Carlo lectured me.
[19:32] (Flashback) Carlo
    Let me teach you the best thing
    to do at times like this!
[19:35] (Flashback) Carlo
    Find a new woman!
[19:38] Dahlia
    A new woman?
[19:40] Oswald
    He bragged about how he had a
    beloved young lady of his own.
[19:44] Dahlia
    What sort of boast is that?
[19:48] Oswald
    After having quite a lot to drink,
    he invited me to the Green Tower.
[19:54] Oswald
    I met a little girl there.
[19:57] Oswald
    "A beloved young lady." He wasn't wrong.
[20:01] Oswald
    And it made me laugh.
[20:06] Oswald
    So you see, I met you
    when you were very young.
[20:11] Oswald
    He said his daughter was prone to heat rashes
    because a lack of airflow made the tower hot,
[20:15] Oswald
    and that since he'd treated me to alcohol,
    I should come up with a magic device for that.
[20:19] Oswald
    The device I made was the
    cold wind delivery device.
[20:23] Oswald
    Thanks to that, I was able to rebuild my shop.
[20:27] Oswald
    It's unfortunate that I was only able to drink
    with Mister Carlo at the barons' gatherings.
[20:32] Oswald
    Had I known this would happen,
    I would have invited him out myself.
[20:36] Oswald
    Though, perhaps it was only I
    and not he who felt this way.
[20:41] Dahlia
    Not at all.
[20:42] Dahlia
    In the summer, my father would drink in
    front of the cold wind delivery device.
[20:47] (Flashback) Carlo
    Gratitude to Oswald Zola!
[20:50] Dahlia
    I'm certain he did that to feel
    like he was drinking with you—
[20:54] Dahlia
    with his friend, Mister Oswald.
[20:57] Oswald
    Mister Carlo did that?
[21:01] Oswald
    Mister Carlo...
[21:04] Oswald
    Pardon me.
[21:08] Oswald
    Thank you.
[21:10] Oswald
    A weight has been lifted from my heart.
[21:13] Dahlia
    No, thank you. It made me happy
    to hear stories of my father.
[21:16] Oswald
    Please come to my shop again one day.
[21:20] Dahlia
    I will.
[21:29] Dahlia
    My father's handwriting.
[21:32] Dahlia
    He'd always leave his coat
    wherever he took it off.
[21:35] Dahlia
    Even if I polished his
    shoes, he never noticed.
[21:38] Dahlia
    No matter how many times I warned
    him, he always drank too much.
[21:42] Dahlia
    And I told him so many
    times to sleep in his bed.
[21:46] Wolf
    Dahlia?
[21:51] Dahlia
    It's not fair to show me your
    good side after you're gone.
