[00:09] MERL
    Please, Gio, these humans saved me.
[00:14] GIO
    I'm aware.
[00:16] CELINA
    Dolan, we seem to have
    entered an elf forest.
[00:20] DOLAN
    Yeah, but it's okay.
[00:22] DOLAN
    We didn't come here to fight, after all.
[00:26] DOLAN
    Still, you two should get
    behind me just in case.
[00:33] GIO
    My human and lamia friends.
[00:35] GIO
    Firstly, let me express my gratitude for
    the help you provided our friend Merl.
[00:40] GIO
    Thank you.
[00:45] GIO
    But Ente belongs to us forest dwellers.
[00:50] GIO
    Why have you set foot in this place?
SIGN    Visitors from the Dark
[02:29] DOLAN
    I'm Dolan, from Verun Village.
[02:32] DOLAN
    Some disturbing monsters have started
    appearing in the vicinity of our village.
[02:36] DOLAN
    We surmised that something was going on
    in the forest and came to investigate,
[02:41] DOLAN
    but I realize now that we should've
    asked for your permission first.
[02:44] DOLAN
    I apologize for that.
[02:45] GIO
    I see. I cannot blame you for
    coming here for such a reason.
[02:52] GIO
    But I will suggest that you leave, at once.
[02:56] GIO
    Because this forest is currently
    in an extremely perilous state.
[03:01] DOLAN
    Are you talking about the demon troops?
[03:06] DOLAN
    I see. So they've appeared
    in your village, too?
[03:10] GIO
    "Appeared" doesn't begin to describe it.
[03:14] GIO
    We're currently waging war against
    the demon army in this forest.
[03:20] CHRISTINA
    Wait! How are you dealing with it?
[03:24] CHRISTINA
    Do you have enough forces?
[03:26] CHRISTINA
    Have you reported this
    emergency to the kingdom?
[03:29] CHRISTINA
    Is your village truly safe?!
[03:33] CELINA
    Christina!
[03:35] CELINA
    Calm down!
[03:37] CELINA
    Look, the elves seem troubled.
[03:40] CHRISTINA
    Even one of that bizarre
    creature is dangerous,
[03:42] CHRISTINA
    and there's a whole army of them?
[03:46] CHRISTINA
    Tell me, is your village not in
    extreme danger as we speak?!
[03:51] CHRISTINA
    If there is anything we can
    do to help, we'll do it!
[04:05] CHRISTINA
    Oh, forgive me. I lost my composure.
[04:09] CELINA
    It's not a bad thing.
[04:11] CELINA
    You're worried for the elves, aren't you?
[04:15] FIO
    Merl, those humans seem nice.
[04:19] MERL
    They are. What's more,
    they even beat the demon soldiers.
[04:23] ELFA
    Yeah, that human girl seems to
    have real skill with the sword.
[04:27] ELFB
    Right. And it looks like
    that lamia likes them.
[04:33] ELFB
    Maybe we can trust them.
[04:36] DOLAN
    Chris's strength of character
    is helping us here.
[04:39] DOLAN
    But did they say "demon army"?
[04:42] DOLAN
    If those zerts earlier didn't just
    happen to wander onto the surface,
[04:48] DOLAN
    that must mean there's a portal connecting
    the demonic realm to this Forest of Ente.
[04:54] DOLAN
    Should the portal open fully, even
    stronger demons will come through.
[04:59] DOLAN
    No... I'll destroy them
    before it comes to that!
[05:04] DOLAN
    Even if people find out that I have a
    dragon soul and I'm chased out of my home,
[05:11] DOLAN
    I have to use my dragon
    powers without hesitation.
[05:16] DOLAN
    I have a proposal.
[05:19] DOLAN
    As she just said, this is an emergency.
[05:23] DOLAN
    It isn't something you
    can handle on your own.
[05:27] DOLAN
    This may violate your laws, but would
    you allow us to help you temporarily?
[05:33] GIO
    But...
[05:39] FIO
    Brother.
[05:40] GIO
    Fio?
[05:42] FIO
    I understand your
    responsibilities as our leader.
[05:45] FIO
    But I care more about our
    fellow villagers than our laws.
[05:49] FIO
    I think these people are speaking in
    good faith. Let's try trusting them.
[06:02] GIO
    I understand.
[06:04] GIO
    Please, my human friends.
[06:06] GIO
    Lend us your strength.
[06:09] GIO
    But, knowing that you can hold your own,
    I'll surely begin to rely on you...
[06:15] GIO
    even though it may put your lives in peril.
[06:19] DOLAN
    And we're saying that's fine by us.
[06:23] GIO
    I'm Gio, brave human boy.
[06:27] DOLAN
    Dolan. Nice to meet you.
[06:33] GIO
    What was that?!
[06:34] CELINA
    Dolan... What is that?
[06:46] DOLAN
    This sensation...
[06:50] DOLAN
    I recognize it.
[06:53] DOLAN
    A portal has opened!
[07:30] GIO
    To the village!
[07:32] DOLAN
    Hear me, O laws of wind.
[07:35] DOLAN
    Give us a tailwind to boost our travels.
[07:39] DOLAN
    Wind Accel!
[07:47] DOLAN
    A wind support magic.
[07:48] DOLAN
    It should help us hurry.
[07:58] RAFLASIA
    Huh... so this is the surface.
     Not too shabby.
[08:03] GELLEN
    So that our demonic ruler might
    obtain the Ente Yggdrasil,
[08:10] GELLEN
    we shall serve as the vanguard
    that clears the way.
[08:13] GELLEN
    Remember that.
[08:14] GEOLUDE
    It is a clear display of his trust in us.
[08:18] GEOLUDE
    We need to repay it by doing
    our jobs as mercenaries!
[08:21] GELLEN
    Where is Georg?
[08:25] RAFLASIA
    Not here yet. His stupid amount of
    mana's probably slowing him down.
[08:31] GEOLUDE
    Well, in that case, let's play a
    little game before he shows up.
[08:35] GEOLUDE
    I can sense the elves nearby.
[08:38] GEOLUDE
    How about we see who can find them first?
[08:42] RAFLASIA
    If I find them first, I'm free to kill them?
[08:47] GEOLUDE
    That's the prize!
[08:49] RAFLASIA
    I'm in. Gellen?
[08:52] GELLEN
    I have no interest in weaklings.
[08:55] GELLEN
    I'm only here to fulfill
    my mission to the letter.
[08:57] GEOLUDE
    Hmph! Well, I'm gonna raise some hell!
[09:01] GEOLUDE
    Starting with those trees there!
[09:04] RAFLASIA
    Such an impatient fellow.
[09:07] RAFLASIA
    This place smells nice, however.
[09:10] RAFLASIA
    The lovely fragrance of flowers...
    It makes me want to show them some love.
[09:26] ELFF
    Damn these bugs! There's no end to them!
[09:29] ELFG
    Don't let a single one into the village!
[09:32] ELFF
    Wha... What is that?
[09:41] GEOLUDE
    I am the first of the
    Four Demonic Knights, Geolude!
[09:45] GEOLUDE
    My attack shall signal
    the declaration of war!
[10:03] ELFF
    F-Fire!
[10:20] GIO
    What? Is that true, my spirit friends?
[10:24] GIO
    The spirits are reporting that fiends
    are attacking from north of the village.
[10:29] GIO
    Dolan, these must be the
     higher-level demons you spoke of.
[10:32] DOLAN
    We need to hurry.
[10:34] GIO
    Let's enter the village from the
    southwest and fortify the defenses.
[10:40] CELINA
    Dolan!
[10:41] DOLAN
    Right!
[10:44] DOLAN
    Fight them off!
[10:49] GEOLUDE
    You could handle the troops,
    but not a single blow from me?
[10:55] GEOLUDE
    Your screams just now were
    music to my ears, elves!
[11:08] GEOLUDE
    You can have the privilege of
    witnessing my spear once more!
[11:14] GEOLUDE
    Die!
[11:28] GEOLUDE
    Curses!
[11:33] ELFF
    R-Roses?
[11:35] DIADORA
    Quit spacing out and run!
[11:39] GEOLUDE
    How vexing!
[11:41] GEOLUDE
    Do you really believe mere vines
    can restrain the great Geolude?!
[11:52] GEOLUDE
    Curses... They absorb my
    blood and mana to bloom?
[11:56] GEOLUDE
    Such loathsome black roses!
[12:01] ELFF
    Diadora...
[12:12] GIO
    We're almost to the village!
    Stay on your toes!
[12:15] ALL
    Right!
[12:17] DOLAN
    I beseech thee, O laws of power.
[12:20] DOLAN
    Give me countless arrows to smite my foes.
[12:24] DOLAN
    Energy Rain!
[12:49] GIO
    Hurry up and get in!
[12:55] DOLAN
    We should buy some time.
[12:58] CHRISTINA
    I was thinking the same.
[13:00] CELINA
    Me, too!
[13:01] DOLAN
    Christina, Celina, let's use these
    to cast some powerful spells.
[13:06] CHRISTINA
    Magic crystals? And pure ones, at that.
[13:10] CELINA
    Are these the ones we found at that swamp?
[13:14] DOLAN
    Exactly.
[13:16] DOLAN
    Use them as you will.
[13:19] CHRISTINA
    Heed my words, O laws of wind.
[13:22] CHRISTINA
    Allow me to bind and turn
    you into my blades!
[13:27] CHRISTINA
    Go wild!
[13:28] CHRISTINA
    Tornado!
[13:37] CELINA
    O spirits of earth, my foes are your own.
[13:41] CELINA
    Sharpen thyself and be my spear!
[13:49] DOLAN
    I can't let them outdo me.
[13:53] DOLAN
    Heed my words, O laws of power.
[13:57] DOLAN
    Come to me and gather,
    and erupt into flames.
[14:02] DOLAN
    Explosion!
[14:15] GIO
    Incredible.
[14:20] GIO
    Those feats of strength make me
    want to rely on you even more.
[14:24] DOLAN
    We wanted to show that you could rely on us.
[14:29] DIADORA
    Dweller of the demonic realm, do you
    realize the sins you have committed?
[14:36] DIADORA
    You left flora and insects
    crushed in your wake,
[14:39] DIADORA
    killed animals, and took lives from
    those who call the forest their home.
[14:44] DIADORA
    You have committed too many sins to count!
[14:49] GEOLUDE
    Sins, you say?
[14:51] GEOLUDE
    Perhaps you consider them sins, Diadora.
[14:55] GEOLUDE
    But to me, being weak is a greater sin!
[14:59] GEOLUDE
    They were killed because they were weak!
[15:03] GEOLUDE
    How you make me laugh!
[15:07] DIADORA
    Enough. Your very words
    are a blight on my ears.
[15:11] DIADORA
    Allow me to inform you of
    one another sin, then.
[15:16] DIADORA
    You are weak.
[15:20] DIADORA
    Oh, right. Your appearance
    in this realm was one, too.
[15:25] DIADORA
    Perish, filthy demon!
[15:30] RAFLASIA
    You played around too much, Geo!
[15:38] RAFLASIA
    Wow, you really held Geo down?
[15:40] RAFLASIA
    You must have really powerful
    mana, rose spirit.
[15:45] RAFLASIA
    How lovely.
[15:47] RAFLASIA
    It's a pleasure to meet you.
[15:49] RAFLASIA
    I'm one of the
     Four Demonic Knights, Raflasia.
[15:54] RAFLASIA
    Let's play nice, milady.
[16:03] DOLAN
    Oh...
[16:04] CHRISTINA
    Wow.
[16:09] GIO
    This is our elven village.
[16:11] GIO
    But we have no time for sightseeing.
[16:14] DOLAN
    Yes.
[16:16] GEOLUDE
    Hmph! I had no need for your help, Raflasia.
[16:20] GEOLUDE
    I could've handled that myself!
[16:22] RAFLASIA
    My, such an obvious bluff.
[16:25] RAFLASIA
    But it is your role to charge ahead
    and get into trouble, I suppose.
[16:32] GEOLUDE
    No, my role is to massacre
    our foes before anyone else!
[16:37] RAFLASIA
    You're the only one who believes that.
[16:42] RAFLASIA
    Now...
[16:43] RAFLASIA
    Are you ready for a world of hurt,
     my black rose lady?
[16:48] DIODORA
    Oh, you're teaming up?
[16:51] DIODORA
    Then I shall take you on
    with my friends, too!
[16:59] DIADORA
    Hear me, flora spirits of the forest.
[17:02] DIADORA
    Come to me and put on a show of strength...
[17:07] DIADORA
    What's the matter? Answer me, forest flora!
[17:14] RAFLASIA
    Wait, are you calling out
    to these floral spirits?
[17:20] RAFLASIA
    I saw a bunch of pretty
    flowers on the way here,
[17:24] RAFLASIA
    and I just had to have some
    fun with them, you see!
[17:29] RAFLASIA
    This lily spirit here
    withered away screaming.
[17:36] RAFLASIA
    And this gentian spirit was crying
    for help as it rotted away.
[17:42] RAFLASIA
    And the white lily spirits were
    chopped to pieces by the zerts.
[17:48] DIADORA
    Why, you...
[17:50] RAFLASIA
    Oh, but the red roses were the
    most devoted of them all.
[17:55] RAFLASIA
    They cried, "Diadora! Please help, Diadora,"
[17:59] RAFLASIA
    as I slowly cursed them to death.
[18:03] DIADORA
    How dare you?!
[18:07] DIADORA
    All those lives you took
[18:09] DIADORA
    belonged to my friends and family!
[18:12] DIADORA
    How dare you!
[18:16] RAFLASIA
    So much anger, and for such a silly reason!
[18:19] RAFLASIA
    All flowers fight over the
    nutrients in the soil to grow.
[18:23] RAFLASIA
    You should be glad that your
    competition has dwindled.
[18:29] RAFLASIA
    You know what? You should be
    thanking me, if anything.
[18:35] DIADORA
    Silence! You will pay for what you've done!
[18:39] DIADORA
    Not a speck of you shall remain!
[18:51] RAFLASIA
    You know, I'm a floral spirit, too.
[19:02] RAFLASIA
    But, unlike you, my flower isn't one
    that grows in the paradise up here.
[19:08] RAFLASIA
    I'm the spirit of a demonic realm flower
    that only feeds on blood and life,
[19:12] RAFLASIA
    the raflaora!
[19:16] RAFLASIA
    All life exists to feed my
    blooming—they are but sacrifices.
[19:23] RAFLASIA
    As you now see.
[19:25] DIADORA
    What?!
[19:29] RAFLASIA
    Insanity is doing the same thing
    and expecting different results.
[19:37] RAFLASIA
    I thank you for the delicious food,
    just as I did the other flowers.
[19:43] DIADORA
    You're going down!
[19:47] RAFLASIA
    Gosh, will you ever learn?
[19:56] DIADORA
    Go!
[20:04] DIADORA
    You're the one who needs to learn.
[20:07] DIADORA
    The prettier a rose, the sharper its thorns.
[20:09] DIADORA
    People have said so forever.
    You'd best commit it to memory.
[20:19] RAFLASIA
    Blood...
[20:21] RAFLASIA
    My blood?
[20:24] RAFLASIA
    You scarred me?
[20:27] RAFLASIA
    Unthinkable! Unforgivable!
[20:30] RAFLASIA
    How dare a lowly surface rose
    spirit tarnish my beauty!
[20:36] RAFLASIA
    You have committed the gravest of sins!
[20:39] DIADORA
    You don't say.
[20:40] DIADORA
    Your indignation is utterly
    meaningless, if you ask me.
[20:44] DIADORA
    I've decided to kill every last one of you.
[20:54] GEOLUDE
    This is tedious, Raflasia!
[20:56] GEOLUDE
    I'll end this with one swing of my spear!
[21:02] RAFLASIA
    Wait, Geo! She's mine!
[21:04] GEOLUDE
    Die!
[21:10] GEOLUDE
    Don't think those vines will work on
    me without the element of surprise!
[21:16] GEOLUDE
    Come on!
[21:22] RAFLASIA
    You should flee more desperately...
[21:26] RAFLASIA
    or this won't be any fun at all!
[21:33] DIADORA
    Wh-What? My mana's been absorbed...
[21:37] RAFLASIA
    I'll bestow you a painless death.
[21:42] GEOLUDE
    Die!
[21:46] DIADORA
    I can't die before I avenge
    my friends and family.
[21:53] DIADORA
    I'm so sorry, everyone.
[22:05] GEOLUDE
    Wh-What?!
[22:17] DIADORA
    A h-human?
