[00:34] ---
    Thank you, Vince.
[00:43] ---
    Driven from Romdo by a
    monster called a Proxy...
[00:48] ---
    I escaped to the outside world.
[00:55] ---
    After losing everything,
[00:57] ---
    I'm left with doubts and only one option.
[01:02] ---
    We travel to Mosk, my birthplace,
[01:06] ---
    in the hopes of discovering something.
[01:09] ---
    It's been several days
    since the journey began.
[01:15] ---
    Not only have our bodies grown weak.
[01:19] ---
    Cloudy skies go on forever.
[01:23] ---
    Frozen lands stretch to
    the ends of the Earth.
[01:27] ---
    The bone chilling landscape
    closes in on us.
[03:27] ---
    How is she?
[03:28] ---
    Yes. It's been only three days...
[03:32] ---
    but the adaptation rate
    of the bio-mimetic Amrita cells
[03:35] ---
    being administered is progressing well.
[03:37] ---
    Complications from the weakened
    immune system due to the infection...
[03:42] ---
    at this point, there's no problem.
[03:50] ---
    Given her condition,
[03:52] ---
    we could allow her to go home
    today to continue her recovery.
[03:59] ---
    Well then, I'll bring her to you later.
[04:04] ---
    The latest data is in.
[04:09] ---
    Your ability to heal never
    ceases to amaze me, Re-l.
[04:19] ---
    Re-l 124C41+
[04:22] ---
    Chief Daedalus.
[04:39] ---
    The Proxy has already vanished
    from Romdo and its vicinities.
[04:43] ---
    It is an unshakeable fact.
[04:47] ---
    If you are in possession of some
    concrete information, we ask that...
[04:52] ---
    Don't forget.
[04:54] ---
    While we are individuals,
    we are at the same time a single entity.
[04:58] ---
    If the Research Bureau knows
    of a way to track the Proxy...
[05:03] ---
    the Security Bureau's position is...
[05:04] ---
    Each bureau's disputes...
[05:07] ---
    are sensed by us.
[05:11] ---
    Which means we are capable
    of knowing Romdo in its entirety.
[05:16] ---
    The fact that our existence makes
    the connection is sufficient proof as to
[05:20] ---
    whether the Proxy is present or not.
[05:25] ---
    The Proxy is not in Romdo.
    That much is true.
[05:31] ---
    Then there's one thing this individual
    wishes to ask you, as a single entity.
[05:36] ---
    Why was a citizen allowed
    to return from the outside world,
[05:40] ---
    when none of us have attempted it before?
[05:44] ---
    You are not authorized to request...
[05:47] ---
    the disclosure of such information.
[05:50] ---
    Your time is up.
[06:33] ---
    Knowing the truth
    doesn't equate to being happy.
[06:39] ---
    I can't believe it took me so
    long to accept such an obvious reality.
[06:45] ---
    I realize now it was because
    of my own weakness.
[06:52] ---
    My grandfather's lies.
[06:56] ---
    There's a world outside this city.
[07:00] ---
    There are people living there.
[07:07] ---
    I know that now.
[07:10] ---
    That's why...
[07:12] ---
    there's no escape from this reality.
[07:28] ---
    What's it doing here?
[07:30] ---
    Daedalus, so you did know after all.
[08:39] ---
    This is the artificial womb.
[08:44] ---
    Daedalus!
[08:46] ---
    The place where all
    of Romdo's citizens are born...
[08:49] ---
    the womb-sys.
[08:50] ---
    Daedalus, why?
[08:54] ---
    I'll take my work tools back.
[08:57] ---
    I can't cover up for you if I lose one.
[09:02] ---
    I really give you credit
    for your curiosity.
[09:10] ---
    Follow me.
[09:12] ---
    I'll show you.
[09:15] ---
    It's the most biologically and
    structurally efficient production line...
[09:21] ---
    as a life-sustaining
    system within the dome.
[09:24] ---
    From here we are born
    to become fellow citizens and
[09:28] ---
    to be raised by fellow citizens.
[09:33] ---
    Everything is controlled and
    thus the balance is maintained.
[09:38] ---
    Because population management
    and stability are essential...
[09:41] ---
    in order for daily life to proceed
    in a domed city like Romdo.
[09:47] ---
    Re-l?
[09:48] ---
    I'm all right.
[09:50] ---
    Even though mentally I know
    that people are controlled
[09:56] ---
    by production lines just like AutoReivs...
[10:00] ---
    It's different when you actually see it.
[10:05] ---
    Operational intervention
    in the life process.
[10:08] ---
    By doing it repeatedly,
    we allow the human race to go on.
[10:14] ---
    Is that how it really is?
[10:16] ---
    Then what was that world
    I saw out there with my own eyes?
[10:21] ---
    Tell me, Daedalus!
[10:24] ---
    Do fellow citizens really
    need this dome anymore?
[10:30] ---
    If we know for certain
    there's an outside world,
[10:32] ---
    hasn't it long since served its purpose?
[10:36] ---
    I'm an idiot.
[10:38] ---
    I came very close to
    losing someone important to me.
[10:44] ---
    I really shouldn't have let you go outside.
[10:48] ---
    It's too late now.
[10:51] ---
    Once you know the truth,
    there's no escaping it.
[10:54] ---
    Right.
[10:55] ---
    Do you remember our promise?
[10:59] ---
    Yeah, but before that,
    will you help me save face?
[11:06] ---
    You want me to go to my grandfather's?
[11:10] ---
    He's right.
[11:12] ---
    Before setting out on a
    journey for the truth...
[11:16] ---
    there's someone I need to face.
[11:25] ---
    A world without so much
    as a trace of a living creature
[11:28] ---
    let alone a sign of people.
[11:35] ---
    Still far from Mosk,
    our hopeful final destination.
[11:44] ---
    And...
[11:47] ---
    on every face, a look of fatigue.
[12:00] ---
    I'm sorry I've given you
    so much trouble, Grandfather.
[12:07] ---
    Are you satisfied, Re-l?
[12:10] ---
    What did you see in the outside world?
[12:13] ---
    You can speak freely.
[12:17] ---
    Are you at a loss as to how to answer?
[12:21] ---
    There were people.
[12:23] ---
    People living there.
[12:26] ---
    There was a world.
[12:28] ---
    Is that right?
[12:31] ---
    Why are you hiding it?
[12:33] ---
    Re-l...
[12:34] ---
    What are you afraid of?
[12:36] ---
    You've said quite enough.
[12:37] ---
    I'm talking to my Grandfather.
[12:46] ---
    You don't have an answer, do you?
[12:56] ---
    I wonder how much time
    has passed since we left Romdo.
[13:04] ---
    The tired faces.
[13:07] ---
    And another one...
[13:42] ---
    Re-l.
[13:53] ---
    Re-l. Re-l.
[13:56] ---
    He was sent here for readjustment
    due to imprecise judgment valuations.
[14:00] ---
    I had him handed over
    to me for safekeeping.
[14:04] ---
    I'll go set things up.
[14:12] ---
    If it wasn't for the Prince,
    I'd be scrap already.
[14:16] ---
    You've lost some weight,
    haven't you? You look pale too.
[14:21] ---
    You're a mess without me, aren't you, Re-l?
[14:25] ---
    Come on, Re-l. Why are
    you being so distant?
[14:29] ---
    Because even now, you're being...
[14:32] ---
    Well, then...
[14:34] ---
    now it's my turn to
    keep my promise to you.
[14:37] ---
    Wait. Before that...
[14:45] ---
    Oh, I haven't told you yet, have I?
[14:49] ---
    Iggy's been given the
    same procedure as my assistants.
[14:53] ---
    You severed the connection
    with the surveillance structure.
[14:57] ---
    Right.
[14:58] ---
    Which means Iggy's ears
    are no longer your Grandfather's.
[15:03] ---
    So now we can speak
    freely about the Security Bureau.
[15:07] ---
    All right, now let's get down to business.
[15:12] ---
    I have the results from
    the autopsy on that thing.
[15:16] ---
    That thing you found
    butchered in the outer block.
[15:22] ---
    But before that...
[15:24] ---
    I'm going to tell you what
    I know, from the beginning.
[15:35] ---
    One age has come to an end.
[15:38] ---
    Chief?
[15:40] ---
    The Regent's life force
    is gradually starting to decline.
[15:46] ---
    It's most evident in his complexion.
[15:50] ---
    Such statements must be recorded
    by Entourage AutoReivs like myself.
[15:55] ---
    I want them to hear.
[16:00] ---
    Any signs of the Proxy?
[16:02] ---
    Now that it's no longer in the city,
[16:04] ---
    it's difficult to use remote
    follow-up investigation.
[16:10] ---
    Let's make it simple.
[16:12] ---
    We'll use those relics from the
    past hidden in the underground facilities.
[16:15] ---
    Intelligence Release Mode. Confirmed.
[16:20] ---
    You mean the long-range transfer
    crafts used in the Mosk invasion.
[16:24] ---
    If you're going to eat the poison,
    you might as well eat the plate.
[16:27] ---
    I'm going to teach you
    the meaning of those words.
[16:32] ---
    We called it the Monad Proxy.
[16:37] ---
    Monad?
[16:38] ---
    We plundered it from the Mosk Dome.
[16:50] ---
    It was already here when
    I was assigned to the facility.
[16:56] ---
    Even I don't know the real
    reason it was kept locked up...
[17:01] ---
    or why we were forbidden to wake it.
[17:05] ---
    But there are some things I do know.
[17:09] ---
    First, it's not a human...
[17:12] ---
    from both a theological
    and biological perspective.
[17:17] ---
    We could not even identify its gender.
[17:20] ---
    In terms of Romdo...
[17:23] ---
    I think the Proxy's existence
    could best be called a "life force."
[17:28] ---
    So then, rather than being a monster...
[17:31] ---
    Yes. It's definitely more like a god.
[17:37] ---
    You could say it's the key to supporting...
[17:39] ---
    the field necessary for
    our survival in this ruined world.
[17:45] ---
    It's like something right
    out of the occult.
[17:48] ---
    But it shows up in the actual data as well.
[17:51] ---
    The specimen is composed of...
[17:53] ---
    these Amrita cells which are immortal.
[17:59] ---
    If we could figure out their secret...
[18:02] ---
    we could...
[18:04] ---
    The Proxy is the key to why we're alive.
[18:10] ---
    But it's already been lost.
[18:14] ---
    So then, Romdo must also have...
[18:16] ---
    Yes.
[18:18] ---
    But, we mustn't forget
    our own little secret.
[18:23] ---
    There's not just a single Proxy.
[18:26] ---
    Very good.
[18:28] ---
    Don't treat me like an idiot.
[18:30] ---
    Well then, there's
    something else I want to ask you.
[18:35] ---
    Where did you learn the word Proxy?
[18:41] ---
    You shouldn't have left
    me alone in the office.
[18:44] ---
    Re-l.
[18:46] ---
    Honestly, I don't know
    why I'm so drawn to all this.
[18:52] ---
    Was it the intense encounter?
[18:54] ---
    It's not just that.
[18:56] ---
    Something changed then.
[19:06] ---
    Until now I didn't need to
    question things or have answers.
[19:11] ---
    If only I'd just done my
    job and left it at that...
[19:16] ---
    I could still go back. But...
[19:20] ---
    But?
[19:22] ---
    I ran into it and found
    out about the outside world.
[19:28] ---
    I can't ignore something
    once I know about it.
[19:32] ---
    That's just like you.
[19:37] ---
    But I'm the same too.
    I want to know the answer.
[19:42] ---
    That's why I'm here.
[19:45] ---
    Daedalus.
[20:02] ---
    It's just the two of us now.
[20:05] ---
    No... that thing's an AutoReiv.
[20:14] ---
    I'm alone again.
[20:19] ---
    Come on. We're going to
    the place you were born, right?
[20:24] ---
    Yeah.
[20:29] ---
    What kind of place is it?
[20:31] ---
    It's, um...
[20:33] ---
    you'll see when we get there.
[20:37] ---
    Re-l!
[20:46] ---
    Iggy!
[20:53] ---
    This facility is secured! It's impossible.
[21:02] ---
    Chief.
[21:04] ---
    They're infected with cogito?
[21:40] ---
    No way...
[21:42] ---
    Don't tell me they've turned
    the cogito virus into a weapon!
[21:48] ---
    It's me they're after.
[21:50] ---
    Raul. How dare he! We don't
    even know its infection mechanism.
[21:55] ---
    It shows how far he's
    willing to go to lock in power.
[21:58] ---
    He's trying to find out where the Proxy is.
[22:06] ---
    The man who holds the answer to that is...
[22:09] ---
    Vincent Law.
[22:12] ---
    Re-l, we got a response from
    our plant inside the Security Bureau.
[22:17] ---
    I'm starting a trace on the target.
[22:20] ---
    Re-l!
[22:34] ---
    Re-l!
[22:45] ---
    All alone.
[22:48] ---
    The person left behind
    has nothing but time to think.
[22:55] ---
    The memories I can't recall,
    even if I wanted to forget them.
[23:00] ---
    The unresolved entity in
    my head refuses to go away.
[23:05] ---
    What is it?
[23:07] ---
    What is inside of me?
[23:14] ---
    Even if I knew...
[23:17] ---
    what good would it do me now?
[23:19] ---
    Now...
[23:21] ---
    when I'm completely alone.
[23:25] ---
    We'll probably never meet again.
[23:29] ---
    That's why I must forget.
[23:34] ---
    But even so, I can't forget that face.
[25:31] ---
    Good things. Coming things.
[25:33] ---
    Moving things. Sad things.
[25:36] ---
    Happy things. Single things.
[25:39] ---
    Couple things.
[25:41] ---
    Shining things.
[25:41] ---
    Light Beam
[25:44] ---
