[00:00] Nar
    Long, long ago, when there were
    fewer stars shining in the sky...
[00:07] Nar
    The gods of light, order, and fate
[00:11] Nar
    and the gods of darkness,
    chaos, and coincidence
[00:14] Nar
    decided to throw dice in order to
    determine which side would rule the world.
[00:20] Nar
    The gods threw the dice over
    and over and over again,
[00:26] Nar
    until they began to feel faint.
SIGN    Unexpected Visitors
[02:06] greenhorn Warrior
    Hey, look at that hottie over there!
[02:09] Apprentice Cleric
    Hey.
[02:10] greenhorn warrior
    Whoops. Sorry.
[02:12] Light warrior
    She's a high elf. They're blood
    descendants of the faeries.
[02:16] Druid
    She definitely has longer
    ears than other elves...
[02:20] High Elf Archer
    I'm asking about Orcbolg.
[02:22] Guild girl
    Oak...?
[02:25] High elf archer
    No. Orc. Orcbolg. I heard that he was here.
[02:30] Guild girl
    Are you referring to an adventurer?
[02:33] Dwarf shaman
    You fool.
[02:34] Dwarf shaman
    We're in the realm of the humans.
[02:36] Dwarf shaman
    They won't understand your
    funny talk, long-ears.
[02:39] High elf archer
    Then what exactly am I supposed to call him?
[02:42] Dwarf shaman
    Beard-cutter, of course!
[02:45] Guild girl
    Um... I'm afraid I've never
    heard of them, either...
[02:47] Dwarf shaman
    You haven't?
[02:49] High elf archer
    You dwarfs are useless.
    You're stubborn and narrow-minded.
[02:52] High elf archer
    You always think you're
    the only ones who are right.
[02:55] Dwarf shaman
    Look who's talking, elf.
[02:57] Dwarf shaman
    Your chest is as flat as your heart is small.
[03:00] High elf archer
    Wha—
[03:01] High elf archer
    If we're gonna go there,
    dwarf women just look like barrels!
[03:04] Dwarf shaman
    You mean they're voluptuous!
[03:05] Guild girl
    Um... Uh...
[03:08] Lizardman priest
    Pardon me, you two,
[03:09] Lizardman priest
    but if you're going to fight,
    could you do so where I can't see you?
[03:13] Lizardman priest
    I apologize for the ruckus
    my companions have caused.
[03:16] Guild girl
    Oh, it's fine. I'm used to it...
[03:18] Guild girl
    But what a strange party.
[03:21] Guild girl
    A high elf traveling with
    her ancestral foe, a dwarf...
[03:24] Guild girl
    And a lizardman, a race you rarely see.
[03:26] Guild girl
    Not to mention they're all silver-ranked.
[03:29] Lizardman priest
    You see, we're looking for a fellow whose
    nicknames are "Orcbolg" and "Beard-cutter."
[03:34] Lizardman priest
    I'm also not well-versed
    in the human tongue, but...
[03:38] Lizardman priest
    They mean "goblin slayer."
[03:40] Guild girl
    Oh! Goblin...
[03:51] High elf archer
    Hey, you!
[03:52] Goblin slayer
    We're done.
[03:54] Guild girl
    Welcome back, Goblin Slayer!
[03:57] High elf archer
    Huh?
[03:58] Priestess
    We've returned.
[04:00] Guild girl
    I'm glad you're safe.
[04:02] Priestess
    Yes, somewhat.
[04:04] Goblin slayer
    You just mentioned goblins. Where are they?
[04:07] Guild girl
    Well... You should ask them.
[04:11] Goblin slayer
    Are you goblins?
[04:12] High elf archer
    Of course not! Are you Orcbolg?
    You don't look it.
[04:17] Goblin slayer
    Why would I? I've never been called that.
[04:20] Lizardman priest
    There's something we'd like to
    discuss with you, Sir Goblin Slayer.
[04:23] Lizardman priest
    May we have a moment of your time?
[04:27] Goblin slayer
    Fine.
[04:28] Guild girl
    If you'd like, there are some
    meeting rooms upstairs...
[04:32] Goblin slayer
    Then let's go.
[04:35] Priestess
    U-Um, sh-should I...
[04:41] Goblin Slayer
    You should rest.
[04:43] High elf archer
    We'll just borrow him for a bit, okay?
[04:57] Greenhorn warrior
    Hey.
[04:59] Priestess
    Yes?
[05:00] Greenhorn warrior
    You're porcelain-ranked, too, right?
    Why don't you join us?
[05:06] Priestess
    No... I appreciate the offer,
    but I already have—
[05:09] Apprentice cleric
    The guy who never takes
    off his helmet, right?
[05:12] Greenhorn warrior
    We know.
[05:13] Greenhorn warrior
    There's something off about him, though.
[05:15] Greenhorn warrior
    He's silver-ranked, but all
    he ever does is slay goblins.
[05:18] Greenhorn warrior
    Silvers would usually go
    for bigger prey than that.
[05:21] Apprentice cleric
    I've heard rumors that he's just dragging
    newbies around to use them as bait.
[05:25] Priestess
    That's not—
[05:27] Witch
    Now, now...
[05:29] Witch
    You shouldn't... talk nonsense...
[05:31] Greenhorn warrior
    Nonsense? But we weren't—
[05:33] Witch
    It's all right...
    Leave the rest to me, okay?
[05:39] Witch
    Well... then...
[05:41] Witch
    You are... the girl...
    traveling with him... right?
[05:45] Priestess
    Y-Yes, ma'am. He's letting me accompany him.
[05:49] Priestess
    Accompany... eh?
[05:53] Witch
    He's...
[05:55] Witch
    a handful... right?
[05:57] Witch
    He's quite dense.
[06:01] Witch
    Right?
[06:02] Witch
    Inflammarae.
[06:05] Witch
    A truly powerful word...
    and I'm wasting a spell... right?
[06:13] Witch
    You see...
[06:15] Witch
    he also asked a strange favor of
    me once... that friend of yours.
[06:20] Priestess
    What?
[06:22] Witch
    You just imagined something
    naughty... didn't you?
[06:25] Priestess
    N-No...
[06:27] Witch
    He wanted some help with a scroll.
[06:30] Witch
    It's difficult... accompanying him... isn't it?
[06:35] Priestess
    It's taking everything I have
    just to keep up with him.
[06:39] Priestess
    All I do is cause him trouble.
[06:42] Witch
    No to mention... he's a bit crazy... right?
[06:52] Witch
    I mean...
[06:54] Witch
    He might only slay goblins...
[06:57] Witch
    but he's been doing that for years
    with barely any rest... you see?
[07:01] Witch
    He is definitely helping out in the world...
[07:06] Witch
    Much more than other unskilled
    monster slayers...
[07:11] Witch
    But that being said,
[07:13] Witch
    one shouldn't just keep slaying... goblins.
[07:18] Witch
    There are many demons in the capital,
[07:21] Witch
    and the world is filled with monsters.
[07:24] Witch
    If you wanted to help people...
[07:26] Witch
    you could do so with those two you
    were talking to... couldn't you?
[07:30] Priestess
    Well... Yes, you're right, but...
[07:39] Witch
    I'm sorry.
[07:42] Witch
    There are many paths... right?
[07:44] Witch
    There is no... right answer.
[07:47] Witch
    It's difficult.
[07:50] Witch
    If you are going to accompany him,
[07:53] Witch
    you should really make up your own mind.
[08:00] Priestess
    Make up my own mind...
[08:04] High elf archer
    Are you truly a silver rank?
[08:07] Goblin slayer
    The guild thinks so.
[08:09] High elf archer
    Unbelievable.
[08:11] High elf archer
    You look so weak.
[08:13] Dwarf shaman
    Don't be a fool, long-ears.
[08:17] Dwarf shaman
    That leather armor is easier to move in,
[08:20] Dwarf shaman
    and the chain mail would
    stop a sudden stabbing.
[08:23] Dwarf shaman
    That goes for the helmet, too,
[08:24] Dwarf shaman
    His sword and shield are tiny,
    but easier to wave around in tight spaces.
[08:30] High elf archer
    Shouldn't you at least
    keep your equipment clean?
[08:33] Goblin slayer
    It's a necessary precaution
    to cover the metal smell.
[08:35] Goblin slayer
    Those bastards have keen noses.
[08:37] Dwarf shaman
    You may be a high elf, but you're
    still an inexperienced whelp who
[08:41] Dwarf shaman
    just left the forest because she was bored.
[08:42] Dwarf shaman
    You really ought to learn from your elders.
[08:46] High elf archer
    I'm 2,000 years old.
    How old were you again?
[08:50] Dwarf shaman
    One hundred and seven...
[08:52] High elf archer
    My, my, you definitely look much older.
[08:55] High elf archer
    You at least look old enough to be wise.
[08:58] Lizardman priest
    That's enough talk about age.
[09:00] Lizardman priest
    It shames those of us who
    won't live nearly so long.
[09:03] Goblin slayer
    What's your business with me?
[09:06] High elf archer
    I'm sure you've heard about the growing
    number of demons in the capital...
[09:10] Goblin slayer
    Nope.
[09:11] High elf archer
    The reason for it is that the
    demon king has been resurrected.
[09:14] High elf archer
    He's gathering forces so
    he can take over the world.
[09:17] Goblin slayer
    I see.
[09:18] High elf archer
    And that's why we want your—
[09:20] Goblin slayer
    Ask someone else. I have no
    interest in anything but goblins.
[09:25] High elf archer
    Don't you understand what I'm saying?!
[09:27] High elf archer
    Hordes of demons are going to attack!
[09:30] High elf archer
    Do you realize that the
    world is at stake here?!
[09:32] Goblin slayer
    Yes.
[09:34] Goblin slayer
    But before the demons destroy the world,
    the goblins will destroy the villages.
[09:38] Goblin slayer
    The world being in danger isn't
    an excuse to let the goblins live.
[09:41] High elf archer
    Listen here—
[09:42] Dwarf shaman
    Hold it, long-ears!
[09:44] Dwarf shaman
    We didn't come here to ask him to do
    something about the chaos to begin with.
[09:48] Lizardman priest
    Sir Goblin Slayer, we've come
    to ask you to slay some goblins.
[09:53] Goblin slayer
    I see. In that case, I accept.
[09:55] Goblin slayer
    Where are they? How many are there?
    How big is their nest?
[09:57] Goblin slayer
    Have you confirmed if they
    have a shaman or a hob?
[10:00] High elf archer
    What's with this guy?
[10:04] Lizardman priest
    As my companion mentioned...
[10:07] Lizardman priest
    a horde of demons are
    ready to make their move.
[10:11] Lizardman priest
    So the chieftains of my kind,
    the kings of men,
[10:15] Lizardman priest
    and the elders of the elves and
    dwarves are going to hold a meeting.
[10:20] Dwarf shaman
    We're adventurers who've been
    hired as their representatives.
[10:25] High elf archer
    There's eventually going
    to be a great battle...
[10:27] High elf archer
    Though I'm sure you don't care.
[10:30] Dwarf shaman
    The problem is, those goblins are currently
    becoming more active on elven lands.
[10:37] Goblin slayer
    Have any champions or lords emerged?
[10:40] High elf archer
    Champions? Lords?
[10:42] Goblin slayer
    Goblin heroes or kings.
[10:44] Goblin slayer
    They're basically equal to
    platinum-ranked adventurers.
[10:47] Lizardman priest
    We have found one giant
    nest during our investigations.
[10:53] Goblin slayer
    The military won't move for goblins, as usual.
[10:57] High elf archer
    The human kings don't see us as equals.
[11:00] High elf archer
    If we brought our soldiers into this,
    they'd think we were plotting something.
[11:04] Lizardman priest
    That's why they sent us adventurers,
    but we still need a human.
[11:09] High elf archer
    And that's why, Orcbolg, we've chosen you.
[11:14] Goblin slayer
    Do you have a map?
[11:15] Lizardman priest
    Right here.
[11:19] Goblin slayer
    Ruins?
[11:20] Lizardman priest
    We believe so.
[11:21] Goblin slayer
    How many?
[11:21] Lizard priest
    We only know that there are many.
[11:23] Goblin slayer
    I'll leave immediately.
[11:24] High elf archer
    Huh?
[11:25] Goblin slayer
    You can decide how much you want to pay me.
[11:31] High elf archer
    Is he planning to go alone?
[11:39] Spearman
    Miss Receptionist!
[11:40] Goblin slayer
    Goblins.
[11:42] Guild girl
    Oh, Goblin Slayer.
[11:44] Guild girl
    So they did come to offer you a quest.
[11:47] Goblin slayer
    That lizardman will give you the
    details of the quest. I'm heading out.
[11:51] Goblin slayer
    Give me my pay for that last quest.
[11:53] Guild girl
    But you haven't made your report yet...
[11:55] Guild girl
    I'll make an exception for you, though.
[11:58] Spearman
    Who does he think he is?
[12:00] Witch
    Come, now... No pouting.
[12:04] Goblin slayer
    Give the rest to her.
[12:06] Guild girl
    Oh, are you going alone?
[12:09] Guild girl
    What about her?
[12:10] Goblin slayer
    I'm going to let her rest.
[12:11] Priestess
    Goblin Slayer!
[12:14] Priestess
    U-Um, you received a quest, right?
[12:16] Goblin Slayer
    Yes. Slaying goblins.
[12:18] Priestess
    Then I'll get ready immediately!
[12:20] Goblin slayer
    No.
[12:22] Goblin slayer
    I'll go on my own.
[12:26] Priestess
    That's not fair!
[12:29] Priestess
    You could've...
[12:30] Priestess
    discussed it with me, at least...
[12:37] Goblin slayer
    I am now.
[12:41] Priestess
    Oh... So this is a discussion?
[12:45] Goblin slayer
    That was my intention.
[12:49] Priestess
    Not giving the other person a choice
    doesn't really qualify as a discussion.
[12:54] Goblin slayer
    It doesn't?
[12:59] Priestess
    I'm going with you.
[13:00] Priestess
    I can't leave you alone.
[13:04] Goblin slayer
    Do as you wish.
[13:06] Priestess
    Indeed, I will.
[13:10] Dwarf shaman
    Even we're not that hard to read.
[13:14] Dwarf shaman
    I look forward to seeing what
    that young'un does next.
[13:17] Lizardman priest
    If I were to put in the quest
    and not go with him,
[13:19] Lizardman priest
    I wouldn't be able to face my ancestors.
[13:23] High elf archer
    A strange and incomprehensible being, huh?
[13:27] High elf archer
    I left the forest to see something like that.
[13:29] High elf archer
    Honestly... Don't you think you
    ought to respect your elders?
[13:43] High elf archer
    So why did you all become adventurers?
[13:47] Dwarf shaman
    Why, to eat all the delicious
    foods, of course.
[13:50] Lizardman priest
    They're ready.
[13:53] Dwarf shaman
    What about you, long-ears?
[13:55] High elf archer
    I've always longed for the outside world—
[13:57] Dwarf shaman
    This is delicious!
[13:58] High elf archer
    Hey, listen to me!
[13:59] Lizardman priest
    I'm glad you find it to your liking.
[14:01] Dwarf shaman
    What kind of meat is this?
[14:04] Lizardman priest
    That is the meat of a swamp creature.
[14:06] High elf archer
    Swamp? Really?
[14:08] Dwarf shaman
    A rabbit like you who only eats vegetables
    could never understand this bliss.
[14:13] Dwarf shaman
    So good!
[14:14] Priestess
    Would you like some soup?
[14:16] High elf archer
    I'd love some.
[14:21] High elf archer
    It has such a gentle taste!
[14:23] Lizardman priest
    I seek to raise my status by rooting out
    heresy so that I may become a dragon.
[14:29] Lizardman priest
    That's the reason I became an adventurer.
[14:31] Priestess
    I-I see...
[14:38] Goblin slayer
    So I could slay...
[14:40] High elf archer
    Yeah, I think we can figure out your reason.
[14:44] High elf archer
    I'll have to give you something in return.
[14:50] High elf archer
    These are elven traveling rations.
[14:52] High elf archer
    We're not supposed to give them to others,
    but this is a special occasion.
[14:58] Priestess
    It's delicious!
[14:59] High elf archer
    Really? Glad you like it.
[15:00] Dwarf shaman
    Now I guess I'll have to offer something, too.
[15:06] Dwarf shaman
    Our cherished dwarven fire
    wine created in our cellars.
[15:10] High elf archer
    Fire... wine?
[15:12] Dwarf shaman
    You aren't suggesting you're a
    child who's never had wine before,
[15:15] Dwarf shaman
    are you, long-ears?
[15:18] High elf archer
    D-Don't mock me! Of course I have.
[15:25] Priestess
    A-Are you all right?
    Would you like some water?
[15:29] Dwarf shaman
    Go on, Beard-cutter. Have some.
[15:37] Dwarf shaman
    Not bad, kid.
[15:44] High elf archer
    Why don't you at least take off
    your helmet when you're eating?
[15:49] Goblin slayer
    So I don't get knocked unconscious
    in the event of an ambush.
[15:53] Dwarf shaman
    Yeah, she's out of it.
[15:56] High elf archer
    Quit eating and share
    something of yours with us!
[16:03] Priestess
    He's lost in thought.
[16:05] Dwarf shaman
    You can tell?
[16:08] Goblin slayer
    Will this do?
[16:09] Lizardman priest
    What is it?
[16:11] Goblin slayer
    Cheese.
[16:12] Goblin slayer
    It's made from fermented cow
    or goat's milk, then hardened.
[16:16] Dwarf shaman
    You've never heard of cheese before, Scaly?
[16:19] Lizardman priest
    My people hunt beasts.
[16:22] Lizardman priest
    We do not raise them.
[16:27] High elf archer
    Gimme! I'll cut it up.
[16:34] Dwarf shaman
    This is some fine cheese!
[16:45] Lizardman priest
    Nectar!
[16:47] Lizardman priest
    This is surely the nectar of the gods!
[16:50] Dwarf shaman
    Goes great with the wine.
[16:55] High elf archer
    It's so sweet! It's almost like a banana!
[16:57] Priestess
    Is this from that farm?
[17:00] Goblin slayer
    It is.
[17:01] Priestess
    It's delicious.
[17:02] Goblin slayer
    Good.
[17:05] High elf archer
    Sneak...
[17:06] Goblin slayer
    Don't touch that.
[17:08] Goblin slayer
    It's dangerous.
[17:10] High elf archer
    I-I just wanted a peek...
[17:12] Goblin slayer
    Don't. It's dangerous.
[17:14] High elf archer
    That's a scroll, right?
[17:16] High elf archer
    I've never seen one before.
[17:18] Lizardman priest
    Scrolls contain ancient magic
    that is now lost to us.
[17:23] Lizardman priest
    Once you unroll one, even a child
    could use the spell within.
[17:28] Dwarf shaman
    Indeed.
[17:29] Dwarf shaman
    But it could be any one of many spells,
    and it can be only used once.
[17:33] Dwarf shaman
    Most people would just
    sell them off as antiques
[17:36] Dwarf shaman
    to a collector or researcher at a high price.
[17:39] (Flashback) Witch
    He wanted some help with a scroll.
[17:44] High elf archer
    Then at least tell me what kind
    of spell you've got in there.
[17:47] Goblin slayer
    No.
[17:48] Goblin slayer
    What if the goblins capture you
    and you tell them what's in it?
[17:52] High elf archer
    You don't like me, do you?
[17:56] Goblin slayer
    I'm not particular.
[17:57] Dwarf shaman
    It's no use, long-ears.
[18:00] Dwarf shaman
    He's far more narrow-minded than any of us.
[18:03] Dwarf shaman
    He's Beard-cutter, after all.
[18:04] High elf archer
    He's Orcbolg, after all.
[18:04] Lizardman priest
    He's Sir Goblin Slayer, after all.
[18:07] High elf archer
    Oh, jeez...
[18:08] Goblin slayer
    I'm Goblin Slayer.
[18:12] High elf archer
    Hey!
[18:17] Lizardman priest
    There's one thing that's been on my mind...
[18:19] Lizardman priest
    Where do the goblins come from?
[18:22] Lizardman priest
    I was taught that they came
    from an underground kingdom.
[18:25] Priestess
    We're taught that when someone makes
    a mistake, a goblin is formed.
[18:31] High elf archer
    What's that supposed to mean?
[18:32] Priestess
    Folks say it to keep children in line.
[18:35] Priestess
    Children are told that if they make
    a mistake, goblins will come.
[18:37] Dwarf shaman
    That's awful!
[18:39] Dwarf shaman
    That means if we'd left long-ears to her own
    devices, we'd be neck-deep in them now!
[18:43] High elf archer
    How rude!
[18:46] High elf archer
    Tomorrow, I'll show you just
    how skilled I am with my bow!
[18:49] Dwarf shaman
    Ooh, how scary. I'm terrified.
[18:52] Goblin slayer
    I heard...
[18:58] Goblin slayer
    I heard they came from the moon.
[19:00] Lizardman priest
    Moon? You mean the two in the sky?
[19:04] Goblin slayer
    Yes.
[19:09] Goblin slayer
    The green one.
[19:11] Goblin slayer
    The goblins come from that green rock.
[19:15] High elf archer
    Does that mean shooting stars are goblins?
[19:18] Goblin slayer
    I'm not sure, but the moon has
    no grass, trees, or water.
[19:23] Goblin slayer
    It's a desolate place with only rocks.
[19:25] Goblin slayer
    It makes them envious and jealous,
    and makes them want what they don't have.
[19:30] Goblin slayer
    That's why they come here.
[19:33] Goblin slayer
    Which is why, if you ever feel envious
    of someone, you become like a goblin.
[19:38] Priestess
    Who did you hear that from?
[19:41] Goblin slayer
    My older sister.
[19:42] Priestess
    You have an older sister?
[19:45] Goblin slayer
    Yes... I did.
[19:48] High elf archer
    So you believe that goblins
    come from the moon.
[19:52] Goblin slayer
    If nothing else...
[19:55] Goblin slayer
    I know my sister never made mistakes.
[20:12] High elf archer
    He fell asleep.
[20:15] Dwarf shaman
    Looks like the fire wine finally kicked in.
[20:17] Priestess
    Well, he did have plenty of it.
[20:20] Lizardman priest
    We should also sleep.
[20:22] Lizardman priest
    If we don't get enough rest,
    that could very well lead to mistakes.
[20:26] Lizardman priest
    The lookout will be who we agreed upon.
[20:48] Cow girl
    Head on back. Time to go home.
[21:01] Cow girl
    He didn't come back again today...
[21:30] Dwarf shaman
    Whatever you do, don't miss.
[21:33] High elf archer
    Hush.
[21:38] Dwarf shaman
    Where in the world are you aiming?!
[21:54] Goblin slayer
    Let's go.
