    THE HERO LOST IN THE GLACIER
[01:50] ---
    I...
[01:54] ---
    will take care of him.
[01:58] ---
    Let's finish him this time!
[02:00] ---
    Oh, of course.
[02:03] ---
    Hadlar already took care of the Hero.
[02:06] ---
    He may be a downgrade, but I would lose
    face if I didn't kill a Disciple of Avan.
[02:11] ---
    Why you...!
[02:13] ---
    Bring it on!
    I'll fight to the end alone if I have to!
[02:18] ---
    That's right.
    You have to avenge Dai, don't you?
[02:22] ---
    He died trying to rescue you after all.
[02:28] ---
    That's right!
    Dai was defeated because of me!
[02:33] ---
    Because of my recklessness!
[02:36] ---
    If I lose my head and get killed fighting,
    who's going to rescue Dai?!
[02:42] ---
    Remember...
[02:44] ---
    a Mage must always be
    the most level-headed in the party.
[02:51] ---
    Mentor!
[02:53] ---
    How do I use what little
    Magic Power I have left?!
[02:57] ---
    The one thing I can do
    for Dai right now is...
[03:01] ---
    Come on now, little Mage.
[03:07] ---
    Hey!
[03:09] ---
    All I can do is run as far as I can...
[03:11] ---
    and let everyone know what happened!
[03:15] ---
    A wise choice.
[03:17] ---
    He kept his cool
    even after I provoked him.
[03:30] ---
    Dammit!
[03:43] ---
    Got you!
[03:50] ---
    Big Guy!
[03:51] ---
    That's right. There was another
    from the Hero's party who could fly.
[03:57] ---
    The Beast King's here!
[03:59] ---
    Are you my opponent now?
[04:01] ---
    Beast King Redemption Blast!
[04:13] ---
    You're kidding.
[04:15] ---
    The brave Beast King Crocodine
    just up and ran away.
[04:21] ---
    I've never let a target
    escape me twice before.
[04:26] ---
    That boy is beginning to irritate me.
[04:36] ---
    Big Guy...
[04:37] ---
    Are you okay?
[04:39] ---
    I...
[04:41] ---
    I...
[04:43] ---
    I didn't want to abandon Dai and run.
[04:46] ---
    But... there was nothing else I could do!
[04:50] ---
    I didn't have a choice!
[04:54] ---
    I know.
[04:59] ---
    You'd never choose to turn tail
    unless the situation was severe.
[05:04] ---
    That's why I ran without hesitation.
[05:10] ---
    I know the sort of man you are.
[05:20] ---
    Let's go back to Papnica.
[05:45] ---
    Is it done?
[05:48] ---
    No. I doubt he's unharmed,
[05:50] ---
    but my Ultra Combustion Slash
    didn't find its mark.
[05:55] ---
    In that instant, Dai focused
    all his remaining power into an attack,
[06:00] ---
    which defended himself
    by countering my Combustion Slash.
[06:05] ---
    What combat instincts!
    What an unyielding will to fight!
[06:10] ---
    That must be the millennia of battles
    etched in the blood of the Dragon Knights.
[06:17] ---
    And the attack he used
    in that instant was...
[06:21] ---
    Gigabreak!
[06:23] ---
    The spell was Zapple
    and its power was weak...
[06:27] ---
    but that was definitely the attack of
    his father, General Baran!
[06:33] ---
    He may say he rejects his father,
[06:36] ---
    but it appears that the shadow of Baran
    is a great influence on Dai.
[06:43] ---
    Like father like son.
[06:47] ---
    Don't die yet, Dai!
[06:49] ---
    Otherwise, I'd have to question
    why I bothered becoming a monster!
[06:56] ---
    You idiot! You stupid fool!
[06:58] ---
    -Stop it, Chiu!
    -Come here!
[07:00] ---
    Come here, you idiot!
[07:05] ---
    You know, I was actually beginning
    to think you weren't that bad!
[07:11] ---
    And then you went off
    and put Dai in danger!
[07:15] ---
    You call yourself a friend of the Hero?!
[07:18] ---
    I-I'm sorry, Chiu.
[07:22] ---
    Everyone...
[07:23] ---
    There's no excusing what I did.
[07:26] ---
    It's all my fault.
[07:32] ---
    Apologizing won't fix anything!
[07:34] ---
    -Chiu, was it?
    -Huh?
[07:36] ---
    Try to forgive him.
[07:38] ---
    Hyunckel?
[07:40] ---
    He's just a fledgling. It's not his fault.
[07:44] ---
    He's got enough on his plate
    saving his own hide.
[07:49] ---
    Go get yourself patched up
    and get some rest.
[07:54] ---
    Hey! D-Don't say that!
[07:57] ---
    I'd rather take a fist to the face
    than sympathy from you!
[08:02] ---
    Crocodine, you'll have to search for Dai.
[08:05] ---
    Right. Got it.
[08:07] ---
    Hey!
[08:08] ---
    Dai probably fell in the ocean
    in the far north, northwest of Orzam.
[08:13] ---
    Please hurry.
[08:14] ---
    Hey!
[08:15] ---
    Dai's no normal human. I doubt he's dead.
[08:19] ---
    Hey, rat.
[08:21] ---
    I've got room for someone your size.
    Care to come?
[08:26] ---
    Of course!
    How wise of you to bring me along!
[08:28] ---
    W-Wait! Let me come with you!
[08:32] ---
    This isn't for the wounded or children!
[08:35] ---
    Hey!
[08:37] ---
    Dammit!
[08:39] ---
    You can't search if you can't fly.
[08:42] ---
    I doubt you have
    the Magic Power for that right now.
[08:45] ---
    Are you kidding me?!
[08:47] ---
    Dai's lost because of me!
    I can't leave this to someone else!
[08:51] ---
    P-Princess, please!
    You've got to do something!
[08:54] ---
    Have you got a spell or something
    that can heal Magic Power?!
[08:58] ---
    I've never heard of a spell like that.
[09:01] ---
    Oh, but...
[09:03] ---
    Didn't I give the Papnica Troika some
    Magic Water that heals Magic Power?
[09:08] ---
    Yes. I believe Marin has it.
[09:12] ---
    That's it!
[09:15] ---
    And now he's all fired up.
[09:17] ---
    You talked to him like that
    on purpose, didn't you?
[09:20] ---
    I figured it'd be more effective
    than yelling at him.
[09:25] ---
    Healing from wounds
    caused by Dark Aura takes time.
[09:29] ---
    I can't have him being morose
    while I'm stuck in bed.
[09:34] ---
    I need him on his feet.
[09:37] ---
    Hmm. Sometimes it's hard to tell
    if you guys rely on Popp or not.
[09:45] ---
    -Please!
    -Stop!
[09:46] ---
    -I'm begging you, Miss Marin!
    -Fine! You can have some!
[09:48] ---
    -I'm begging you!
    -Okay, now let go!
[09:50] ---
    -You've got to!
    - I said yes, so let go!
[09:52] ---
    Huh?!
[10:02] ---
    Here he comes.
[10:04] ---
    I bet he's worried
    that I'm going to outshine him.
[10:12] ---
    Hold on, Dai!
    I promise I'm going to rescue you!
[10:19] ---
    What did you just say, Hyunckel?!
[10:22] ---
    I said once Dai's safety is confirmed,
    we should invade the Dark Army stronghold.
[10:28] ---
    But...
[10:29] ---
    Sovereign Rock Castle, the enemy's
    first line of defense has fallen.
[10:33] ---
    The only remaining
    pillars of the Dark Army
[10:35] ---
    are Hadlar, Mystvearn, and Killvearn.
[10:39] ---
    Our fight with
    Dark King Vearn is drawing near.
[10:48] ---
    BEAST KING REDEMPTION BLAST
[10:52] ---
    ULTRA COMBUSTION SLASH
[10:55] ---
    Right here.
[10:57] ---
    We can assume that Dark King Vearn
    is in the Field of Death.
[11:01] ---
    Everyone, what is our course of action?
[11:06] ---
    I agree with the Disciples of Avan.
    We should invade the Field of Death.
[11:12] ---
    Can we defeat them in an invasion?
[11:15] ---
    We doubt we can defeat them all.
[11:18] ---
    But if we can take even one of them down,
[11:21] ---
    it will bring us that much closer
    to Dark King Vearn.
[11:28] ---
    Very well then.
[11:30] ---
    Now it's time to unite all of the world!
[11:34] ---
    Come on, my fellow world leaders!
[11:38] ---
    Yes.
[11:40] ---
    King Bengarna, do you object?
[11:43] ---
    No. I have no objections.
[11:45] ---
    It's just, I believe
    we'd need that boy for this.
[11:49] ---
    You mean Dai?
[11:51] ---
    That's right.
[11:52] ---
    I've been focused on weapons and arms,
[11:55] ---
    but when I saw him save us,
    I was honestly in awe.
[12:01] ---
    Heroes truly are powerful.
[12:04] ---
    My heart was pounding the whole time.
[12:07] ---
    You were worked up
    like a child back there.
[12:14] ---
    Princess Leona, if he is successfully
    rescued, I promise to help however I can.
[12:20] ---
    I know they'll find him.
[12:22] ---
    Dai's friends are searching the icy seas
    from the sky as we speak.
[12:27] ---
    But, isn't that close
    to the enemy stronghold?
[12:30] ---
    If memory serves,
[12:32] ---
    the Field of Death
    is a place that even birds avoid.
[12:37] ---
    Perhaps it's because of
    the Dark King's power.
[12:43] ---
    Please be okay, Dai!
[12:46] ---
    Dai, I'm going to find you!
[12:51] ---
    This might take a while.
[12:56] ---
    So it's time to face King Vearn.
[13:00] ---
    Mystvearn, I never confirmed Dai's death.
[13:05] ---
    In fact, I'm almost certain he's alive.
[13:09] ---
    I haven't wiped out
    the Hero and his friends as ordered.
[13:15] ---
    I've failed my promise to King Vearn.
[13:18] ---
    It's possible
    I'll be executed on the spot.
[13:23] ---
    That's why I'll say it now.
[13:26] ---
    I used to shun you
    for your mysterious nature,
[13:31] ---
    but now I'm grateful to you.
[13:34] ---
    Of all the six Legion Commanders,
    it's possible that
[13:39] ---
    you were the most sincere with me.
[13:42] ---
    Underneath that mask of silence you wear,
[13:46] ---
    I can't help but sense a fiery soul.
[13:49] ---
    Hadlar...
[13:52] ---
    I can now face my end with my head high.
[13:56] ---
    Thank you.
[14:00] ---
    Oh, don't be such a worrywart.
[14:02] ---
    You've powered up greatly,
    just like King Vearn expected.
[14:07] ---
    It'll be anticlimactic,
    but he'll commend you and that'll be it.
[14:12] ---
    He'll commend us?
[14:15] ---
    Well, this was all thanks
    to my research after all.
[14:21] ---
    Huh?! What about me?!
[14:26] ---
    King Vearn, I, Hadlar, have arrived.
[14:45] ---
    -Oh!
    -Can it be?!
[14:47] ---
    At ease, you two.
[14:51] ---
    My heart feels bright and clear.
[14:56] ---
    Like the sun shining through
    the clouds above.
[15:02] ---
    My face has never been seen
    by anyone but you two.
[15:07] ---
    But, I believe revealing it to Hadlar
[15:11] ---
    is the best way
    to express my approval of him.
[15:17] ---
    What's wrong?
[15:19] ---
    Does this ancient,
    haggard face surprise you?
[15:24] ---
    Are you...?!
[15:25] ---
    Indeed.
[15:27] ---
    I am Vearn.
[15:33] ---
    Dark King... Vearn.
[15:34] ---
    VEARN, THE DARK KING
[15:48] ---
    Is this truly the King Vearn
    that I've feared for so long?!
[15:54] ---
    I sense the pressure from him.
[15:56] ---
    There's no mistaking that immense presence
    I feel through that thin veil.
[16:02] ---
    But he's so incredibly old!
[16:06] ---
    Does he really possess the power
    of a god of the Underworld?
[16:11] ---
    That frail neck...
[16:13] ---
    As a Superior Being,
    I could snap it so easily!
[16:18] ---
    Care to try, Hadlar?
[16:24] ---
    My King, forgive me!
[16:27] ---
    Fear not.
[16:28] ---
    That's what I've always liked about you.
[16:34] ---
    That boundless spirit,
    and heart that believes only in power.
[16:40] ---
    Your recent behavior
    had been rather uncharacteristic of you.
[16:44] ---
    Seeing that spirit rekindled within you
    puts me at ease.
[16:51] ---
    I can never beat him.
[16:54] ---
    He is truly worlds beyond me.
[16:56] ---
    As I had hoped,
    you have broken through your shell.
[17:00] ---
    Your power is now
    almost in league with my own.
[17:07] ---
    I hereby rescind my previous order.
[17:11] ---
    I would like you to continue your duties
    as Dark Commander by my side.
[17:17] ---
    If I may speak, my Dark King.
[17:21] ---
    It pains me to say this
    after you have granted me such mercy...
[17:26] ---
    but there is something I wish to do
    before being reinstated as Dark Commander.
[17:33] ---
    Is this about the Hero?
[17:35] ---
    Yes.
[17:36] ---
    By any means, I wish to defeat
    Dai and the other Disciples of Avan!
[17:41] ---
    That is my final desire!
[17:45] ---
    I beg you grant me this!
[17:51] ---
    There is no need for such formalities.
[17:54] ---
    Dai, the Hero, and his allies
    are the greatest threat to my army.
[17:58] ---
    What objection
    would I have to their defeat?
[18:04] ---
    The Six Legions are in shambles.
[18:07] ---
    It seems unnecessary
    that you command them.
[18:12] ---
    Mystvearn, you will take command.
[18:15] ---
    Yes, sire.
[18:16] ---
    Hadlar, you will protect
    the Field of Death.
[18:19] ---
    Surely you won't object to that?
[18:22] ---
    If Dai survived,
[18:24] ---
    then they will surely
    come to attack this place.
[18:28] ---
    To take my head.
[18:31] ---
    Indeed. I shall obey, my King.
[18:34] ---
    And what should I be doing?
[18:37] ---
    You will maintain your current role.
[18:40] ---
    Very good, sire.
[18:42] ---
    I suppose I'll continue
    my morbid work for now.
[18:48] ---
    Why?!
[18:49] ---
    Why haven't they mentioned me?!
[18:53] ---
    My Mystic Legion and I
    are still in fighting shape!
[18:57] ---
    They're acting like
    I don't even matter anymore!
[19:03] ---
    What did I suck up to Hadlar and
    the other Legion Commanders for?!
[19:09] ---
    I have to distinguish myself
    to make Dark King Vearn acknowledge me!
[19:15] ---
    And for that...
[19:23] ---
    What... happened to me?
[19:26] ---
    Where am I?
[19:29] ---
    In the ice?
[19:33] ---
    I can't move.
[19:34] ---
    My wounds haven't healed.
[19:37] ---
    How did I survive like this?
[19:45] ---
    I see. You protected me.
[19:50] ---
    It's warm.
[19:52] ---
    You kept me from being frozen in ice.
[19:57] ---
    A crack!
[19:59] ---
    Did Hadlar's attack cause that?
[20:02] ---
    I'm sorry.
[20:03] ---
    I'm so sorry.
[20:05] ---
    You sustained such damage for me.
[20:08] ---
    And you've been protecting me
    all this time.
[20:13] ---
    I have to get out of here!
[20:19] ---
    Tell me, would you like
    some more servants?
[20:24] ---
    Sire?
[20:25] ---
    The game of chess is quite deep.
[20:29] ---
    It's thought to be a game of humans,
[20:33] ---
    but it was originally
    invented by the gods.
[20:38] ---
    The beauty of chess
[20:40] ---
    is in using the five types of pieces with
    different abilities to protect the king.
[20:47] ---
    The pawn moves forward
    to defeat its enemies.
[20:51] ---
    The knight leaps eight ways,
    striking from above.
[20:56] ---
    The rook charges horizontally or
    vertically to decimate foes.
[21:03] ---
    The bishop glides diagonally
    like a phantom.
[21:08] ---
    And, possessing the abilities
    of both rook and bishop,
[21:12] ---
    the queen is the most powerful piece.
[21:17] ---
    Th-That shine!
[21:19] ---
    Are those pieces made of...
[21:22] ---
    Orichalcum?!
[21:23] ---
    Indeed.
[21:25] ---
    Very observant of you.
[21:29] ---
    You can have those five pieces.
[21:32] ---
    I haven't had anyone to play with
    in a long time anyways.
[21:36] ---
    If you use the Forbidden Magic
    you used to create Flazzard,
[21:39] ---
    and make those pieces the ultimate force
    that would serve with you as their king...
[21:46] ---
    wouldn't that make things interesting?
[21:53] ---
    It's around here! I'm sure of it!
[21:56] ---
    Dai's somewhere around here!
[22:04] ---
    Even if you face the devil
    With logic on your side
[22:04] ---

    mukatte mitemo
[22:07] ---
    It may just be a rationalization
[22:07] ---
    sore wa akumade seitouka
    sashite chigai wa naikamo
[22:11] ---
    Even now, even now I waver
[22:11] ---
    ima mo ima mo yureteiru kedo
[22:15] ---
    How far will we go?
[22:15] ---
    bokura wa dokomade yukuno
[22:19] ---
    I heard a voice like an angel's whisper
[22:19] ---
    tenshi no sasayaki nimo nita
    koe ga kikoeta
[22:22] ---
    Maybe it was an imposter's illusion
    It still rang in my ears
[22:22] ---
    hatamata petenshi no mayakashi
    hitokiwa mimi ni hibiiteita
[22:26] ---
    Exposed to love and sorrow
[22:26] ---
    ai ni hiai ni sarasare nagara
[22:30] ---
    On the path strewn with pride
[22:30] ---
    hokori mamire michi no tochu
[22:36] ---
    Fleeting moments of cowardice
[22:36] ---
    kiete wa ukabu touhikou
[22:40] ---
    The SOS I held back
[22:40] ---
    nomikonda SOS
[22:44] ---
    I clenched my trembling fist
[22:44] ---
    furueru te wo nigirishimeta
[22:48] ---
    That single little promise
[22:48] ---
    tatta hitotsu no chiisana yakusoku ga
[22:53] ---
    Those trivial little memories
[22:53] ---
    honno sasaina omoidetachi ga
[22:57] ---
    They're still in my heart
[22:57] ---
    itsumade tattemo kono mune wo
[22:59] ---
    As embers that keep me burning
[22:59] ---
    kogashi tsuzukeru tomoshibi ni naru
[23:04] ---
    A single transparent beam of light
[23:04] ---
    tada hitosuji no toumei na hikari ga
[23:08] ---
    Lights the way before me
[23:08] ---
    me no mae wo terashite yuku
[23:11] ---
    There is little that I can do
[23:11] ---
    boku ni dekiru koto wa ikutsu mo naisa
[23:16] ---
    Just keep on to the future
    I managed to grasp through my faith
[23:16] ---
    shinjinuita saki ni te ni shita mirai wo
    susunde yuke
[23:34] ---
    Popp's party wanders
    the freezing ocean in search of Dai.
[23:37] ---
    Zaboera appears, seeking
    to Kill Dai to earn recognition.
[23:41] ---
    The two sides eventually clash.
[23:43] ---
    Desperate, Zaboera attacks
    using a terrifying Super Spell.
[23:47] ---
    As the battle in the glacier intensifies,
    a mysterious shining warrior appears.
[23:53] ---
    DRAGON QUEST The Adventure of Dai*,
[23:55] ---
    "The Orichalcum Warrior"*
[23:57] ---
    The adventure continues!
