[00:06] ---
    The light's uncertainty resembled...
[00:10] ---
    the purpose of my journey
    as I headed for my hometown.
[00:25] ---
    Does the "something"
    I'm searching for exist in Mosk?
[00:29] ---
    What is that "something"?
[00:48] ---
    Now that even my food has run out,
    the only thing awaiting me is...
[00:56] ---
    a lonely death.
[00:59] ---
    All alone...
[01:03] ---
    except for...
[01:04] ---
    Vince!
[01:09] ---
    Something is shining over there!
[01:14] ---
    Maybe it's those playing card soldiers!
[01:20] ---
    That's from the picture book.
[01:29] ---
    I wasn't alone. I had a companion.
[01:34] ---
    An infected AutoReiv.
[01:38] ---
    The light!
[01:42] ---
    What?
[03:55] ---
    A tower?
[03:56] ---
    If we hide in the shadows,
    we can avoid the aerial attack.
[03:59] ---
    From our present location,
[04:01] ---
    that's 558 units along the X-axis
    and 832 units along the Y-axis.
[04:06] ---
    I don't need directions, give me a hand!
[04:24] ---
    AutoReivs?
[04:35] ---
    Pino!
[05:17] ---
    Don't move!
[05:21] ---
    Yes.
[05:27] ---
    Have the Mosquito search for the enemy.
[05:34] ---
    Light Beam
[05:53] ---
    Hey, does it taste good?
[05:55] ---
    So this domed city's up ahead from here?
[05:59] ---
    It's called Romdo.
[06:02] ---
    Are you the playing card soldiers?
[06:04] ---
    What is it?
[06:05] ---
    We saw the shining light.
    That's why we came.
[06:08] ---
    Shining light?
[06:10] ---
    It's the same nonsense
    that woman was talking about.
[06:13] ---
    Could it be from that legend about
    the monster sleeping underground?
[06:18] ---
    It's just a legend. It
    doesn't mean anything.
[06:23] ---
    Why are you fighting the AutoReivs?
[06:27] ---
    The reason?
[06:29] ---
    That sort of uncertainty is
    fatal on the battlefield.
[06:34] ---
    I don't understand.
[06:36] ---
    Is it true that once they're infected
    with that virus, they develop a soul?
[06:41] ---
    I'm sorry.
[06:43] ---
    That's enough already.
[06:45] ---
    But, I...
[06:46] ---
    We're just travelers.
[06:48] ---
    I thank you for all
    your help, including the food.
[06:55] ---
    You certainly did eat. I believe you.
[07:00] ---
    I'm Vincent...
[07:02] ---
    Vincent Law.
[07:04] ---
    Lieutenant Omacatl.
[07:06] ---
    This is Commander Patecatl.
[07:09] ---
    By the way, about the sailboat...
[07:12] ---
    You mean "The Centzon?"
[07:14] ---
    What's its power source?
    Its average cruising speed and range?
[07:18] ---
    I don't know it well
    enough to tell you that.
[07:22] ---
    I don't know either.
[07:24] ---
    Don't worry.
[07:26] ---
    Our people are already
    in the process of retrieving it.
[07:29] ---
    You can leave the repairs to us as well.
[07:32] ---
    You've taken care of everything.
[07:37] ---
    You can pay us back by lending us a hand.
[07:39] ---
    Use this to fight.
[07:42] ---
    But, um...
[07:43] ---
    No sign of the enemy around Charos.
[07:45] ---
    I see. Damage report.
[07:48] ---
    A total of nine confirmed deaths
    from platoons Alpha, Beta, and Gamma.
[07:53] ---
    All told, our battalion currently
    has forty-three people.
[07:57] ---
    Shall I instruct them
    to increase production?
[07:59] ---
    There's no need to use precious energy
    for new recruits before a war of attrition.
[08:04] ---
    Roger.
[08:05] ---
    Everyone, stop what
    you're doing and listen.
[08:09] ---
    First, I have some
    unfortunate news to report.
[08:11] ---
    We lost nine of our men
    in the previous battle.
[08:16] ---
    However, that is no reason to be daunted.
    There's only one thing our enemy is after.
[08:20] ---
    Our production source,
    located in the center of our fortress...
[08:24] ---
    the artificial womb.
[08:26] ---
    If they try to come at us in
    numbers with a single objective,
[08:31] ---
    we can read their pattern of attack.
[08:33] ---
    As soon as the sailboat is repaired,
[08:35] ---
    commence servicing and
    re-outfitting as an armored ship.
[08:38] ---
    There's no need to hold back in waging war.
[08:41] ---
    Its mobility and fuel efficiency
    will come in handy on the battlefield.
[08:49] ---
    We humans must win.
[08:53] ---
    Assuming you're human too,
    I'm sure you understand, Vincent.
[09:00] ---
    I think I'm in trouble.
[09:10] ---
    Excuse me, where's the bathroom?
[09:16] ---
    Sorry...
[09:22] ---
    This is B4 asking for permission to land.
[09:40] ---
    I'm pathetic...
[09:42] ---
    Vince?
[09:45] ---
    I must have eaten too quickly
    and my stomach wasn't able to handle it.
[09:50] ---
    But I'm all right now.
[09:52] ---
    All right. All right.
[09:55] ---
    For some reason, I feel closer...
[09:58] ---
    to this AutoReiv with a mind of its own.
[10:02] ---
    It didn't feel like this when
    we were traveling on the ship.
[10:07] ---
    All I'd wanted was to meet someone.
[10:11] ---
    Something's strange.
[10:14] ---
    The people here,
    something is strange about them.
[10:17] ---
    Yeah.
[10:19] ---
    Once the ship is repaired,
    we should look for a chance to escape.
[10:24] ---
    At long last,
    I finally managed to reach Charos...
[10:28] ---
    but I don't belong here either.
[10:33] ---
    Pino?
[10:35] ---
    What's the matter?
[10:39] ---
    There was something shining.
[10:42] ---
    Again? There's nothing there.
[10:45] ---
    It was twinkling.
[10:47] ---
    Let's go!
[10:52] ---
    I'm coming.
[11:00] ---
    A sailboat, huh?
[11:02] ---
    I've never seen this type before.
[11:05] ---
    It'll be nice not having to
    worry about the power source.
[11:10] ---
    Considering the Mosquito's flight range,
[11:12] ---
    we sure could use this thing.
[11:19] ---
    Hey?
[11:53] ---
    Please, tell me, what the heck's going on?
[11:57] ---
    Who else is there besides you?
[12:00] ---
    Asurans don't kill this way.
[12:06] ---
    It looks like whoever
    did this enjoys killing people.
[12:09] ---
    But why would I?!
[12:12] ---
    In that case, that AutoReiv.
[12:15] ---
    That's ridiculous.
[12:16] ---
    One thing is for certain.
[12:18] ---
    This didn't happen until you came.
[12:26] ---
    Wait! It wasn't me!
[12:31] ---
    Not again...
[12:52] ---
    I bring death to everyone.
[12:58] ---
    All that concerns me runs with blood.
[13:06] ---
    Everyone dies.
[13:16] ---
    Re-l.
[13:34] ---
    What do you think about them?
[13:37] ---
    That stuff about the light...
[13:39] ---
    The woman talked about
    the same sort of thing.
[13:42] ---
    You mean about the light from
    the moon which we can't even see?
[13:46] ---
    Such nonsense is...
[13:48] ---
    In any case, if we don't have
    any further incidents after this...
[13:51] ---
    Commander, the Asuran army...
[14:05] ---
    Bit by bit, it can be seen.
[14:07] ---
    Bit by bit, it can be heard.
[14:10] ---
    Bit by bit, it grows stronger.
[14:13] ---
    Here, there, and everywhere.
[14:17] ---
    The end of the throbbing.
[14:20] ---
    The master finally comes
[14:23] ---
    along with the moonlight that
    haunts the darkness.
[14:27] ---
    Taking his time as he comes.
[14:31] ---
    Bit by bit...
[14:33] ---
    Bit by bit...
[14:35] ---
    Bit by bit...
[14:36] ---
    Bit by bit. Bit by bit.
    Bit by bit. Bit by bit...
[14:47] ---
    Maybe...
[14:49] ---
    without me even knowing it...
[14:54] ---
    inside me... something is...
[15:03] ---
    This feeling.
[15:07] ---
    I can hear the pulse of the awakening.
[15:18] ---
    Along with the moonlight that
    haunts the darkness.
[15:25] ---
    It will certainly provide us with time.
[15:28] ---
    The pulse of the awakening.
[15:31] ---
    The end of the throbbing.
[15:33] ---
    The master finally comes by moonlight.
[15:39] ---
    Vince?
[15:40] ---
    No... help me...
[15:44] ---
    I don't want to change into...
[15:46] ---
    what...
[15:48] ---
    something...
[15:50] ---
    anything...
[15:51] ---
    No!
[15:55] ---
    We've failed to stop
    the encroachment at Area 32.
[15:58] ---
    Asuran troops number almost
    thirty at the platoon level.
[16:02] ---
    They're now advancing towards Area 15.
[16:05] ---
    Are they going after the Mosquito?
[16:08] ---
    All personnel to first battle stations!
    Defend the Mosquito at all cost.
[16:12] ---
    And I want two platoons
    deployed around the artificial womb.
[16:16] ---
    Send the rest to the heliport.
[17:04] ---
    No... please don't...
[17:18] ---
    Commander...
[17:20] ---
    Asuran detached forces have
    infiltrated the underground facility.
[17:23] ---
    Right now they're...
[17:32] ---
    It was over before it started.
[17:39] ---
    You're going to escape by yourself?!
[17:41] ---
    We can't all ride in it anyway.
[17:44] ---
    And we can't rebuild our unit,
    not without the artificial womb.
[17:48] ---
    Shit.
[18:03] ---
    Get us outta here!
[18:11] ---
    It's what that woman was talking about.
[18:13] ---
    Just like the legend said!
[18:21] ---
    Direct hit! You bastard!
[18:30] ---
    Come on! Go!
[18:35] ---
    Wait!
[18:40] ---
    Hey...
[19:30] ---
    Senex...
[19:35] ---
    agent of the moonlight.
[20:30] ---
    The throbbing of war is playing.
[20:34] ---
    It is the melody announcing
    the birth of a new world.
[21:03] ---
    The master comes...
[21:06] ---
    along with the moonlight that
    haunts the darkness.
[21:12] ---
    It's beautiful.
[22:42] ---
    After the battle...
[22:45] ---
    it will grant absolute
    death to our world.
[23:58] ---
    Who are you?
[25:30] ---
    97 rabbits.
[25:32] ---
    98 rabbits.
[25:33] ---
    99 rabbits.
[25:35] ---
    100 rabbits!
[25:37] ---
    All right, I've counted to 100,
[25:39] ---
    so I'm leaving Vince now!
[25:40] ---
    Shards of Brilliance
