[00:18] ---
    That which is necessary is that which
    you can do for someone besides yourself.
[00:28] ---
    When one puts themselves aside, and devotes
    themselves to someone else, they change.
[00:35] ---
    Perhaps those who have the fortitude to do
    so are the ones who are truly beautiful.
[00:42] ---
    I wish that I could always be like that.
[00:58] ---
    I may have a habit of running away
    as soon as anything bad occurs,
[01:05] ---
    but no matter what happens,
    I'm not going to run away now.
[01:12] ---
    I may have a habit of bursting into tears,
    even though I understand it in my mind,
[01:19] ---
    but since I am aiming higher,
    I'm not going to cry now.
[01:26] ---
    I'm tired of hearing that
    things will turn out all right.
[01:28] ---
    Don't bury your head in your hands.
[01:29] ---
    Instead give your positive gauge a clip!
[01:31] ---
    In time it will all feel
    just like it should!
[01:34] ---
    Deeply, deeply, it's becoming
    etched in my mind
[01:40] ---
    that someday, this will all be real.
[01:48] ---
    Both the unchanging mornings
    and the never-ending nights.
[01:54] ---
    I'm off and running for tomorrow's sake.
[02:23] ---
    Duchess of Bardeaux,
[02:25] ---
    Jean Luc Silvernail-sama
    and Isabel Matisse-sama are here.
[02:31] ---
    Have a seat.
[02:32] ---
    Oh yeah? Well then, with your pardon...
[02:35] ---
    Hmm? What's the matter?
[02:37] ---
    Duchess of Bardeaux,
[02:38] ---
    I am terribly sorry for
    the defeat of the People's Army.
[02:43] ---
    The reason we have come here in disgrace
    today is to ask you for your cooperation.
[02:49] ---
    I'll tell you right now,
    we're not through yet!
[02:53] ---
    The People's Army has not given up yet.
[02:56] ---
    We're gonna take Michel back
    from the Holy Emperor's forces,
[02:59] ---
    and build up a world for
    the people, that's for sure!
[03:05] ---
    Is she listening to us?
[03:06] ---
    Duchess of Bardeaux, would you please
    offer us your strength once again?
[03:12] ---
    In addition to the trade rights
    that you proposed earlier,
[03:15] ---
    once the People's Army comes to power,
[03:18] ---
    we will welcome your views on
    all matters of state affairs...
[03:29] ---
    I wonder what has become of the wind boy.
[03:47] ---
    Hey, kid!
[03:49] ---
    Stop daydreaming!
[03:50] ---
    What?!
[03:51] ---
    Big Sis, please, control yourself.
[03:58] ---
    You'd best behave yourself until
    the situation becomes clear.
[04:03] ---
    We haven't heard a peep
    about Big Brother Wind.
[04:07] ---
    Maybe he really did get caught.
[04:11] ---
    Cleo is not the kind of guy who fails!
[04:13] ---
    Hey! Enough already!
[04:15] ---
    Shut up!
[04:16] ---
    Big Sis, don't! They'll put you in solitary!
[04:21] ---
    Sorry about that. We'll reason with her.
[04:25] ---
    Watch yourselves.
[04:30] ---
    Move it!
[04:36] ---
    Cleo, you idiot! Hurry up and come get me!
[04:42] ---
    Your Highness...
[04:44] ---
    Stop that. Sure, I might carry the blood
    of the royal family, but my spirit is free.
[04:53] ---
    You said a moment ago that
    you were waiting for me.
[04:57] ---
    The reason I have gone on living so
    long is so that I could tell you this...
[05:03] ---
    I was convinced that I would meet you.
[05:06] ---
    Tell me what?
[05:08] ---
    What do you think this room is?
[05:11] ---
    What is it?
[05:12] ---
    What I'm asking is,
    do you know what this room is?
[05:15] ---
    Not really.
[05:17] ---
    A dumping ground.
[05:18] ---
    A dumping ground?
[05:20] ---
    Yes. The books arranged here, and the people
    as well, are not needed in this world.
[05:30] ---
    But what has been discarded here is all true.
[05:35] ---
    True? What do you mean?
[05:38] ---
    Very soon, this galaxy will be destroyed.
[05:41] ---
    What?
[05:42] ---
    The books that are here
[05:44] ---
    are the fruits of the wisdom that
    our great predecessors left behind.
[05:48] ---
    However, the Cross-Star
    religion has banned all of them.
[05:54] ---
    Our distant ancestors, the predecessors
    that developed this galaxy's civilization,
[05:59] ---
    came here from another galaxy.
[06:02] ---
    At the end of their long journey,
    they arrived in this galaxy.
[06:07] ---
    Another galaxy?
[06:09] ---
    However, our forebears became
    unable to leave this galaxy.
[06:14] ---
    They had no choice but
    to settle in this galaxy.
[06:18] ---
    You could say that the territorial
    ships that we all know...
[06:20] ---
    ...are the vestiges of our
    ancestors' anguished decision
[06:23] ---
    to ultimately make this their home.
[06:27] ---
    What do you mean, they were
    unable to leave the galaxy?
[06:32] ---
    The Black Cross.
[06:34] ---
    The Black Cross?
[06:37] ---
    This galaxy is headed toward the Black Cross,
    and is being slowly drawn inside.
[06:43] ---
    Ever since the age of our distant ancestors.
[06:45] ---
    The reason why our ancestors'
    ships could not leave
[06:48] ---
    is probably due to its
    gravitational interference.
[06:51] ---
    What happens when
    the galaxy is drawn into it?
[06:54] ---
    Nothing but extinction.
[07:03] ---
    When will that be?
[07:05] ---
    I don't know.
[07:06] ---
    You don't know?
[07:07] ---
    A year from now, a hundred years
    from now... Maybe even tomorrow.
[07:13] ---
    But it's certain that it will be
    in the not-too-distant future.
[07:36] ---
    Heizak-san...
[07:40] ---
    You mean, you made contact
    with her before we did?
[07:46] ---
    Gentlemen, I'm glad that you are safe.
[07:49] ---
    Nice work locating where Michel is yourself.
[07:53] ---
    I'm just a member of the People's Army.
[07:56] ---
    I have received some basic
    training in espionage.
[08:00] ---
    Michel-sama is in the northern palace.
[08:03] ---
    What's security like?
[08:05] ---
    Much tighter than I expected.
    Getting in will be difficult.
[08:09] ---
    Still, we have to do it.
[08:13] ---
    You've changed, huh?
[08:15] ---
    I thought you were the kind of people
    who would not get involved with others.
[08:19] ---
    We're going to get our ship back.
[08:22] ---
    What he means is, even if we get our
    ship back, we still don't have a captain.
[08:28] ---
    You don't mean... Michel-sama...
[08:33] ---
    Then, what you're saying is that you all have
    become quite taken with Michel-sama, right?
[08:38] ---
    Yeah.
[08:51] ---
    Admiral, did you need something?
[08:54] ---
    Ah, Pierre, I have a visitor.
    Not right now, thanks.
[09:00] ---
    Huh? A visitor? When did he get here?
[09:04] ---
    Chic left him here for me to keep an eye on,
    so there won't be any lecture today.
[09:10] ---
    I see. Well, please tell me
    a story tomorrow, then.
[09:16] ---
    Oh, hold on, Pierre.
[09:18] ---
    What is it?
[09:19] ---
    Before, when you left,
    you didn't lock the door again.
[09:24] ---
    Oh, I'm sorry. I'll be more careful.
[09:32] ---
    Who was that guy?
[09:34] ---
    A man who enjoys history and war stories.
[09:37] ---
    He likes to ask about
    the operations I've carried out.
[09:40] ---
    It's a good way to pass the time.
[09:43] ---
    You sure talk a lot, huh?
[09:45] ---
    He's a nice little fellow.
[09:48] ---
    He brings me whatever books,
    food or whatever else I want,
[09:51] ---
    as tuition fees for me
    to lecture to him, but...
[09:53] ---
    What?
[09:54] ---
    No matter how much I ask,
    he won't take these off.
[10:00] ---
    So, what will you do?
[10:02] ---
    There's nothing else to do but to take
    everyone and get us all out of here.
[10:07] ---
    But I told you that we're being pulled
[10:09] ---
    into the Black Cross,
    and can't escape it, didn't I?
[10:12] ---
    If I say we're going to
    get out of here, we will.
[10:15] ---
    How are you going to bring
    the universe together?
[10:17] ---
    The way you've lived your life up to now,
    how many people will listen to you?
[10:23] ---
    Sheesh, what, can you tell everything?
[10:29] ---
    It's true...
[10:32] ---
    I can't do it alone. I'll need help.
[10:37] ---
    Looks like age is finally catching up with-
[10:42] ---
    What's wrong?!
[10:56] ---
    Your Highness!
[10:57] ---
    It's nothing! Don't worry...
[11:01] ---
    Don't tell me... you've...
[11:04] ---
    Pierre! Pierre!
[11:08] ---
    What is it, Admiral? W- what happened?!
[11:12] ---
    He suddenly started having a seizure!
[11:14] ---
    I- I'll get the doctor right away!
[11:17] ---
    There's not enough time!
    I'm carrying him out there! Open up!
[11:20] ---
    T- that's something I can't do.
[11:22] ---
    If he dies, you'll be responsible!
[11:26] ---
    I- I guess I have no choice, huh?
[11:36] ---
    Are you all right?
[11:51] ---
    I enjoyed myself, thanks to you.
[11:53] ---
    When the patrol comes, you can tell
    them we hit you and knocked you out.
[11:58] ---
    Do you think they're going to let
    me off easy for something like this?
[12:02] ---
    Sorry about this. I'll tell you about
    the Battle of Volzeny some other time.
[12:06] ---
    R- really?!
[12:09] ---
    Promise me!
[12:12] ---
    Can you run?
[12:14] ---
    Farther than you can...
    Once we get out, it's all desert...
[12:17] ---
    It'll be hard on an old man...
[12:20] ---
    There is a way.
[12:57] ---
    Farewell... Cleo...
[13:04] ---
    They've definitely got
    every route closed off, huh?
[13:07] ---
    Knowing Cleo, he'd probably
    call for a frontal attack.
[13:11] ---
    That would be as good as committing suicide,
[13:14] ---
    and would just serve
    to bring Michel-sama down.
[13:17] ---
    Let's think of another way.
    There must be something.
[13:44] ---
    What are you doing?
[13:47] ---
    It is not at all unusual
[13:49] ---
    for those who have exchanged vows
    to share the warmth of the same bed.
[13:54] ---
    Is this something we must do?
[13:57] ---
    If an unfeeling embrace will suffice,
[14:00] ---
    then I will have you,
    as is my duty as a husband.
[14:05] ---
    If you don't like it, then would you leave?
[14:08] ---
    No, I will go. The warmth I leave behind
    in the bed should serve to sleep with you.
[14:24] ---
    Don't leave me!
[14:47] ---
    Cleo... Cleo!
[14:50] ---
    Has your wind really stopped blowing?
[14:56] ---
    Your wind torments me!
    Your wind will not let me sleep!
[15:13] ---
    Your Imperial Majesty, you have a visitor.
[15:16] ---
    A visitor? At this hour?!
[15:19] ---
    Please forgive my impertinence.
[15:21] ---
    Who are you?
[15:24] ---
    My name is Muscat. I am in charge of
    treating prisoners in the exile lands.
[15:30] ---
    I have come because I have an urgent matter
    that I must make Your Excellency aware of.
[15:35] ---
    An urgent matter?
[15:40] ---
    Excellency, that couldn't be...
[15:43] ---
    Stay back!
[15:44] ---
    It's about that glow, Your Excellency...
[15:50] ---
    Please, could you clear the room?
[15:54] ---
    That will be all. She is indeed my guest.
[15:58] ---
    Yes, sir.
[16:02] ---
    Might that glow from your eye be soleil?
[16:08] ---
    I knew it.
[16:10] ---
    This may be hard to believe,
[16:12] ---
    but there is another individual
    who has soleil within his body.
[16:16] ---
    Another?
[16:17] ---
    Yes. Upon examining the body of
    a prisoner who was incarcerated last month,
[16:22] ---
    I found that he had soleil within...
[16:24] ---
    Who is it?!
[16:25] ---
    I- I don't know his name.
[16:28] ---
    Just that he was incarcerated
    right after that battle earlier...
[16:34] ---
    It's Cleo!
[16:38] ---
    He's still alive!
[16:40] ---
    Let me see him! Take me to where he is!
[16:45] ---
    Gawain?!
[16:46] ---
    Yes, sir. He is currently
    fleeing through the shaft.
[16:50] ---
    According to the guard, Pierre,
[16:52] ---
    he escaped with a young man
    who was dressed in a jailor's uniform.
[16:57] ---
    Catch them! Put all shafts on alert!
[17:00] ---
    Yes, sir!
[17:04] ---
    So you've finally done it, Admiral.
[17:19] ---
    What's the matter? What's going on?
[17:28] ---
    Still alive?
[17:30] ---
    Yeah, probably.
[17:31] ---
    You're too presumptuous. Your bluster
    is no more than a sign of your anxiety.
[17:36] ---
    And you lecture too much.
[17:44] ---
    Hold it!
[17:47] ---
    What do we do?
[17:49] ---
    Shall we run a little more roughshod?
[18:00] ---
    Oh, not bad.
[18:02] ---
    Freeze!
[18:04] ---
    Surrender quietly!
[18:21] ---
    You're late!
[18:23] ---
    Who's the old guy?
[18:25] ---
    I'll explain later. Is everyone here?
[18:28] ---
    Big Brother!
[18:32] ---
    This is encouraging.
[18:34] ---
    Well then, how about we get out of here?
[18:36] ---
    You got it!
[18:39] ---
    Youth!
[18:44] ---
    Take this!
[18:51] ---
    Don't let them escape! Fire!
[18:56] ---
    Hang on!
[19:16] ---
    Big Brother, what do we do now?
[19:19] ---
    Ask the Admiral where we're going.
[19:21] ---
    Admiral?
[19:30] ---
    Vetti-sama!
[19:33] ---
    Vetti-sama, please wait!
[19:36] ---
    Excellency?
[19:38] ---
    Go ahead and get aboard.
[19:40] ---
    Yes, sir.
[19:44] ---
    What? You're disgracing yourself.
[19:48] ---
    Just where are you going?
[19:49] ---
    To work.
[19:50] ---
    Who is... that lady?
[19:53] ---
    It's none of your business.
[19:55] ---
    Yes, it is!
[19:58] ---
    Stay... stay with me, please!
[20:02] ---
    Lately, you haven't been very becoming.
[20:08] ---
    Right now, you are the clown.
[20:13] ---
    What is going on here?
[20:16] ---
    Father!
[20:17] ---
    This is going a little far, isn't it?
[20:19] ---
    Calling my daughter a clown
    in front of others?
[20:23] ---
    How am I to respond to that?
[20:26] ---
    He is still alive. I do not need to be
    concerned with any other trivial matters.
[20:32] ---
    He?
[20:35] ---
    Cleo of the Wind.
[20:36] ---
    You are mad! You have gotten Michel,
    and now who is this you are after?
[20:41] ---
    I am in a hurry.
[20:42] ---
    Wait!
[20:43] ---
    Vetti-sama!
[20:48] ---
    Come home with me, Rachel.
[20:50] ---
    Now that you are wed,
    I have no further use for that man.
[20:55] ---
    Aren't you the selfish one, Father?
[21:00] ---
    Vetti-sama, please, wait!
[21:04] ---
    Vetti-sama!
[21:05] ---
    Vetti-sama!
[21:15] ---
    I have been expecting you.
[21:30] ---
    Guildy-sama, I beg you,
    please help Vetti-sama.
[21:34] ---
    Ho... The destiny of the two-headed eagle...
[21:39] ---
    ...has gone into motion, has it?
[21:39] ---
    "Like an Epoch"
[21:56] ---
    In these streets which have lost their color,
[22:02] ---
    under my breath, I look at the screen.
[22:09] ---
    Searching for the key to the future,
[22:15] ---
    I've torn my pocket.
[22:22] ---
    Have I any doubts?
[22:28] ---
    Will the light shine?
[22:35] ---
    What is right?
[22:40] ---
    As I struggle, I move into the distance.
[22:47] ---
    I am the only one,
[22:50] ---
    my drifting heart is as hard as a cocoon,
[22:56] ---
    and it protects me,
[23:00] ---
    but I am not the only one,
[23:02] ---
    and the words that issue forth
[23:05] ---
    want to catch
[23:08] ---
    going round and round.
[23:14] ---
    A familiar dream fragment
    and touch of love...
[23:17] ---
    Lie down in the cradle we
    call memory, and sleep there.
[23:22] ---
    Next time on Glass Fleet,
    "Like an Embrace..."
[23:25] ---
    The galaxy in revolution. Renaissance.
[23:25] ---
    "Like an Embrace..."
