    DRAGON MASTER GENERAL BARAN
[01:50] ---
    This is the Dragon Legion's handiwork.
[01:53] ---
    So while we were fighting Flazzard,
    they destroyed Carl Kingdom.

[02:01] ---
    The Order of Carl was said
    to be the greatest! Dammit!
[02:08] ---
    I have a request.
[02:10] ---
    My brother's corpse should be
    around the palace. I'd like to bury him.
[02:17] ---
    My brother was the lead knight
    of this kingdom.
[02:20] ---
    The knight Horkins was a hero whose name
    was known even in neighboring countries.
[02:25] ---
    He fought off the Dragons valiantly,
    but the enemy Legion Commander killed him.
[02:32] ---
    Baran...
[02:34] ---
    I'd never seen anything like it.
[02:48] ---
    My brother matched him
    in skill with a sword.

[02:52] ---
    And then he...
[02:56] ---
    You sheath your sword?! You coward!
[03:11] ---
    One shot.
[03:13] ---
    With one shot, he killed my brother.
[03:19] ---
    There. I can't get him out alone.
[03:28] ---
    This shape...
[03:30] ---
    The same shape as Dai's mark.
[03:33] ---
    Serve you?! Destroy the human world?!
[03:38] ---
    You must be joking!
[03:40] ---
    I make no joke about this.
[03:42] ---
    It's what the Dragon Knights
    were born to do after all.
[03:46] ---
    What?!
[03:47] ---
    I see you don't know yet.
[03:50] ---
    Very well. I shall tell you
    in place of the Dragon Crystal.
[03:57] ---
    Long ago, when the gods
    newly created the world,

[04:01] ---
    three races ruled the land.
[04:04] ---
    Specifically, the humans,
    Darklings, and Dragons.

[04:08] ---
    These days Dragons
    are considered a type of monster,

[04:12] ---
    but they used to be smarter than humans,
    and most of them could speak.

[04:19] ---
    But these three races fought
    bloody battles for control of the world.

[04:26] ---
    The gods, lamenting this,
    decided someone must oversee this world.

[04:34] ---
    The gods of Dragons, Darklings, and humans
    convened and came to a decision.

[04:41] ---
    To create a being with the strength of
    Dragons, the Magic Power of Darklings,

[04:45] ---
    and the heart of humans.
[04:47] ---
    To create the ultimate warrior.
[04:52] ---
    That is the Dragon Knight.
[04:55] ---
    Thus, if any race should ever
    hold ambitions to dominate the world,

[05:01] ---
    it is the Dragon Knight's duty to wipe
    them out and administer divine punishment.

[05:07] ---
    In that case,
    isn't Dark King Vearn worse?!
[05:11] ---
    He's trying to conquer the world!
[05:14] ---
    No. The evil is the humans.
[05:16] ---
    King Vearn seeks to wipe out the humans
    for the sake of the world.
[05:21] ---
    But...
[05:22] ---
    You must promptly embrace
    the proper duties of a Dragon Knight
[05:27] ---
    and offer your power to King Vearn.
[05:30] ---
    No! I'm on the humans' side
    no matter what anybody says!
[05:35] ---
    I'd rather die than serve the Dark Army
    that took Master Avan's life!
[05:40] ---
    I see.
[05:42] ---
    Dragon Legion Commander Baran,
[05:45] ---
    take this!
[05:47] ---
    Avan Strash!
[05:54] ---
    It has no effect?!
[05:57] ---
    I'd rather not harm you,
    but if this is how you feel...
[06:02] ---
    I will take you with me by force!
[06:09] ---
    Impossible! How can this be?!
[06:15] ---
    What's going on down there?!
[06:18] ---
    This is...
[06:19] ---
    I sense it. A being with massive power.
[06:22] ---
    What?!
[06:29] ---
    Look! It's Dai!
[06:31] ---
    Dai!
[06:32] ---
    Dai!
[06:34] ---
    Dai!
[06:37] ---
    Dai!
[06:39] ---
    Are you okay?!
[06:46] ---
    That crest...!
[06:48] ---
    Then he's a Dragon Knight, too?!
[06:50] ---
    He's part of the Dark Army!
[06:54] ---
    Dragon Legion Commander Baran!
[06:57] ---
    What?!
[06:58] ---
    Then the Dark Army
    has their own Dragon Knight, too?!
[07:01] ---
    Impossible! Only one Dragon Knight
    is supposed to exist!
[07:07] ---
    Huh? But...
[07:08] ---
    Correct.
[07:10] ---
    I am the one true
    Dragon Knight of this age.
[07:15] ---
    But, while only one Dragon Knight
    is supposed to be born,
[07:20] ---
    there was an exception.
[07:22] ---
    And that is you!
[07:25] ---
    It's time to embrace your duties
    as a Dragon Knight
[07:29] ---
    and destroy the humans with me!
[07:32] ---
    What?!
[07:33] ---
    I'll never do that!
    Don't make me repeat myself!
[07:36] ---
    Things may be all right now.
[07:39] ---
    During childhood, a Dragon Knight
    is no different from a normal human.
[07:44] ---
    But as you grow and begin to exhibit
    the Power of Dragons,
[07:48] ---
    the humans will begin to fear,
    reject, and persecute you.
[07:54] ---
    When that happens,
    you will be the one to suffer.
[07:59] ---
    I'm scared! He's scary!
[08:04] ---
    Screw your nonsense! Dai is our friend!
[08:08] ---
    No matter what he is,
    we'll never persecute him!
[08:12] ---
    Help you destroy the humans?!
[08:15] ---
    Dai would...
    Dai would rather die than do that!
[08:18] ---
    Popp...
[08:19] ---
    Princess, cast Fullheal on Dai!
[08:21] ---
    Got it!
[08:22] ---
    I'll... I'll try to deal with him!
[08:25] ---
    It's sad to see someone
    overestimate themself.
[08:31] ---
    Donk!
[08:36] ---
    Fullheal!
[08:37] ---
    Good! That should heal Dai!
[08:54] ---
    My greatest spell
    that took down three Green Dragons?!
[08:57] ---
    You thought a Legion Commander
    who leads Dragons to be weaker than one?!
[09:02] ---
    Princess, hurry!
[09:03] ---
    I'm trying, but...!
[09:05] ---
    Your resistance is futile!
[09:10] ---
    My spell!
[09:36] ---
    D-Dammit...
[09:38] ---
    Dai!
[09:40] ---
    I'm taking the boy.
[09:42] ---
    No! You can't have Dai!
[09:45] ---
    You may be the same race, but that
    doesn't give you the right to take him!
[09:50] ---
    I do have... the right.
[09:53] ---
    What?!
[09:54] ---
    This boy... is my son.
[09:59] ---
    What?
[10:01] ---
    What did you just say?
[10:03] ---
    I said this boy is my son.
[10:08] ---
    His real name is Dino.
[10:11] ---
    H-He's lying!
[10:14] ---
    Son? Dai is your son?
[10:17] ---
    You're saying you're Dai's father?
[10:20] ---
    Stop lying!
[10:22] ---
    Dai told me he washed up
    on Dermline Island as an infant!
[10:25] ---
    Have you got any proof?!
[10:28] ---
    The crest on his forehead is proof itself.
[10:32] ---
    Only one person in the world aside from me
    could have the Dragon Crest.
[10:38] ---
    The son I lost 11 years ago, Dino.
[10:43] ---
    Then, yours is the only
    Dragon Knight bloodline?
[10:47] ---
    No friends or brothers?
[10:50] ---
    Wait! What about his mother?!
[10:52] ---
    Where is the woman who gave birth to Dai?!
[10:56] ---
    His mother...
[10:57] ---
    Indeed the boy does bear
    a resemblance to his mother.
[11:04] ---
    However...
[11:05] ---
    that's no concern to you humans.
[11:09] ---
    Astonishing! So Baran is Dai's father?!
[11:13] ---
    It's father and son Dragon Knights!
[11:15] ---
    Correct. It's the tearful reunion
    of a father and son in over a decade.
[11:20] ---
    But don't forget that I'm the one
    who set up this emotional moment.
[11:26] ---
    After all, I uncovered the truth
    that some coward was hiding.
[11:32] ---
    Why you...!
[11:34] ---
    Silence!
[11:36] ---
    The great Dark King Vearn
    shall now grace us with his presence.
[11:40] ---
    Contain yourselves.
[11:41] ---
    My king!
[11:42] ---
    Damn you!
[11:47] ---
    Dark King Vearn is here.
[11:54] ---
    Well done, all of you.
[11:57] ---
    Raise your heads.
[12:02] ---
    Up close, the pressure from him
    is as powerful as ever.

[12:07] ---
    I see things are getting interesting.
[12:11] ---
    Yes. There has been debate as to
    whether or not Dai is a Dragon Knight.
[12:17] ---
    Therefore, I went to ascertain
    the truth as a neutral party.
[12:24] ---
    Commander Hadlar was dead set against it.
    Could he have known Dai's identity?
[12:30] ---
    These dirty little...
[12:31] ---
    Mystvearn, what do you think
    of the boy's power?
[12:37] ---
    I gave Flazzard the most powerful armour
    in my army to test Dai's strength.
[12:44] ---
    He possesses all manner
    of terrifying power.

[12:51] ---
    To think I could have
    two Dragon Knights under my command.
[12:58] ---
    Baran must be rewarded
    if he succeeds in recruiting Dai.
[13:04] ---
    Indeed. If he does,
    he may take the seat of Dark Commander.
[13:09] ---
    King Vearn...!
[13:10] ---
    My decision has been made.
[13:16] ---
    What I was afraid of has come true!
[13:22] ---
    So this is why Hadlar was desperate
    to keep Dai from Baran.

[13:28] ---
    However...
[13:30] ---
    it seems things will not go that smoothly.
[13:37] ---
    CRACKLE
    ICE-TYPE SPELL
[13:43] ---
    DARK PUPPETRY AURA HAND
[13:45] ---
    I'm taking Dino with me.
[13:47] ---
    Don't touch me!
[13:49] ---
    Dai!
[13:50] ---
    Dai!
[13:51] ---
    Don't you understand? I'm far stronger
    than you could ever hope to be.
[13:58] ---
    I still have... my final weapon.
[14:03] ---
    That's right. What Matoriv said...
[14:07] ---
    A hero's weapon.
[14:09] ---
    The only weapon I have left
    that might work on you...

[14:16] ---
    is what lets me face any powerful enemy.
[14:21] ---
    It's my courage!
[14:24] ---
    My only hope now
    is that Dai defeats Baran.

[14:31] ---
    Dino...
[14:32] ---
    Don't call me Dino!
[14:35] ---
    My name is Dai!
[14:37] ---
    It's the name my Grampa gave to me!
[14:40] ---
    I fight the Dark Army! I'm Dai, the Hero!
[14:45] ---
    Dai...
[14:46] ---
    Dai...
[14:51] ---
    Don't!
[14:52] ---
    He's the legendary Dragon Knight!
[14:54] ---
    But he's evil!
[14:56] ---
    Evil? Don't be so sure.
[14:59] ---
    If the Dragon Knight wipes us out,
    it would be humanity's own fault.
[15:06] ---
    But...
[15:07] ---
    I see. Very well.
[15:10] ---
    Then I shall call you
    your human name, "Dai."
[15:14] ---
    Dai! I shall defeat you
    as a Hero who fights with the humans!
[15:19] ---
    If you will not submit to me,
    you shall die!
[15:27] ---
    Popp, here's a Fullheal!
[15:29] ---
    Thanks.
[15:31] ---
    But even if I get
    my stamina back, I'm useless.
[15:34] ---
    Our spells don't seem to have
    any effect on him at all.
[15:38] ---
    Dai, I hope you have a plan!
[15:41] ---
    Any small attack
    and he'll kill me for sure.

[15:45] ---
    I'll have to finish him
    with my biggest, strongest attack.

[15:50] ---
    I thought you were hiding something,
    but I see it's just that.
[15:54] ---
    "Avan Strash," was it?
[15:56] ---
    I assume you unite the power, speed,
    and Aura control, of your sword skills
[16:03] ---
    to complete that attack.
[16:07] ---
    It requires spirit,
    technique, and strength.
[16:10] ---
    For a human attack, it's formidable. But
    you've already seen it won't work on me.
[16:18] ---
    He analyzed Master Avan's greatest attack
    with just one hit.

[16:22] ---
    Then I'll have to use that attack.
[16:24] ---
    Please! Power of Dragons
    that lies within me!

[16:29] ---
    Awaken!
[16:31] ---
    If I don't defeat him,
    all humanity will be wiped out!

[16:43] ---
    Dai showed the crest as well!
[16:46] ---
    Could it be...?
[16:48] ---
    Zapple!
[16:54] ---
    Zap Strash!
[17:02] ---
    He blocked it?!
    Even though Dai's Strash was perfected?!
[17:06] ---
    He's absorbing the energy
    of the Zapple spell with his sword!
[17:10] ---
    Impossible!
[17:12] ---
    Impressive that you can control
    the Power of Dragons this much.
[17:15] ---
    Normally, a Dragon Knight cannot control
    the power of the Crest until fully grown.
[17:22] ---
    You've been blessed
    with good teachers and good battles.
[17:28] ---
    For that spirit and courage,
    I shall show you...
[17:32] ---
    just how terrifying it is when
    a true Dragon Knight controls the heavens!
[17:38] ---
    Kazap!
[17:52] ---
    Gigabreak!
[18:06] ---
    Dai!
[18:07] ---
    You monster! How dare you strike Dai!
[18:10] ---
    I may not be able to do any damage, but...
[18:12] ---
    Stop!
[18:14] ---
    I shall face that man!
[18:17] ---
    Beast King Crocodine!
[18:19] ---
    Thank goodness! We're in deep trouble!
[18:22] ---
    So this is the Beast King.
[18:24] ---
    With you here it's like having an army...
[18:29] ---
    Big Guy, you're shaking.
[18:32] ---
    Crocodine.
[18:33] ---
    Even you should be aware
    of what will happen if you fight me.
[18:40] ---
    I'll probably die.
[18:42] ---
    But, that is something I'm prepared to do.
[18:45] ---
    Big Guy...
[18:46] ---
    Hurry and rescue Dai.
[18:48] ---
    I'll fight with you!
[18:50] ---
    Me too!
[18:51] ---
    -Don't bother.
    -Huh?!
[18:52] ---
    I don't know why,
    but he's completely immune to spells.
[18:58] ---
    The only way to damage him is
    with physical attacks by hand or weapon.
[19:04] ---
    Well done, Beast King. So you realized it.
[19:07] ---
    Get Dai.
[19:09] ---
    Got it.
[19:14] ---
    You heard everything?
[19:15] ---
    I heard enough.
[19:17] ---
    Then why stand in my way?
[19:19] ---
    Why should I not reclaim my own son?
[19:22] ---
    Because Dai doesn't want it.
[19:25] ---
    I see. So you've completely
    sided with the humans.
[19:29] ---
    How disappointing. Of all the Legion
    Commanders, I respected you the most.
[19:35] ---
    That boy, Hyunckel, wasn't bad either.
[19:40] ---
    With his hate for humans
    in that heart of ice.
[19:44] ---
    But, everyone I favor leaves the Dark Amy.
    I guess Hadlar just lacks charisma.
[19:50] ---
    That's not true.
[19:52] ---
    I don't know about Hyunckel,
[19:54] ---
    but I was willing to die
    for Hadlar or Dark King Vearn.
[20:00] ---
    A true warrior
    will sacrifice himself for his master.
[20:04] ---
    All that's changed is that
    I now support Dai.
[20:07] ---
    And so you would fight me? To protect Dai?
[20:12] ---
    Without Dai, both Hyunckel and I
    would have wandered the dark path forever.
[20:18] ---
    He's the sun that brought light
    to our hearts of darkness!
[20:24] ---
    The sun?
[20:25] ---
    All living things need the sun!
[20:30] ---
    None can be allowed to take it away!
[20:34] ---
    I may not be strong enough,
    but I will still fight!
[20:37] ---
    To move the heart
    of one such as Crocodine this much...

[20:42] ---
    What a child.
[20:45] ---
    The sun...
[20:47] ---
    A child of the sun.
[20:52] ---
    Soala...
[20:55] ---
    Why sheath your sword?!
[20:58] ---
    Crocodine,
    I see there's no changing your mind.
[21:01] ---
    But if you fight me,
[21:03] ---
    you will learn the terror
    of fighting a true Dragon Knight.
[21:07] ---
    The completed Power of Dragons
    far beyond that of Dai's!
[21:16] ---
    What is this?! His Aura is staggering,
    but he's just standing there!

[21:21] ---
    What's wrong? Won't you fight?
[21:25] ---
    If you won't fight,
    I'll just have to claim your head!
[21:36] ---
    I-Impossible!
    My axe is the one that shattered!

[21:41] ---
    What's this?!
[21:42] ---
    This is the secret
    to the Dragon Knights' supremacy.
[21:45] ---
    The Draconic Aura!
[21:54] ---
    Big Guy!
[22:20] ---
    yasashisa wa yasashii hito ga tsukaeru mahou
[22:20] ---
    Kindness is the magic of kind people
[22:26] ---
    jaa boku wa tada no hito de iru shikanaino?
[22:26] ---
    Then do I have no choice
    But to just be a normal person?

    I'm not sure
[22:38] ---
    kaeru basho wa ne kawatte yuku kedo
[22:38] ---
    Even if the place I call home may change
[22:44] ---

[22:44] ---
    Listen to me, Mother
[22:46] ---
    mamoru hito wo kaetari shinai
[22:46] ---
    I will never change those I protect
[22:53] ---
    anata wa nannte iukana
[22:53] ---
    I wonder what you'd say
[22:57] ---
    tokiyori yowaki de chippoke de
[22:57] ---
    At times I can be cowardly and small
[23:01] ---
    mayou koto ni mo mayou boku ni nannte iukana
[23:01] ---
    What would you say to me
    As I hesitate to even hesitate?

[23:08] ---

[23:08] ---
    sagashite ita kyou to chigatte

    I'm sure you'd laugh at my disappointment

    Baran is Dai's father.
[23:35] ---
    Dai pushes aside his doubts and fights,
    but cannot defeat Baran's Gigabreak.

[23:41] ---
    Crocodine joins in,
    but fails to even scratch Baran.

[23:45] ---
    Therein lies the secret
    to the Dragon Knights' supremacy.

[23:48] ---
    As Dai still stands up to face him,
    Baran's Crest shines eerily.

[23:53] ---
    DRAGON QUEST The Adventure of Dai*,
[23:56] ---
    
"The Terrifying Draconic Aura"*
[23:58] ---
    The adventure continues!
