[01:36] ---
    The planet "Endless Illusion,"
[01:39] ---
    a lost soul's paradise
    where savage dreams abound.

[01:44] ---
    There's a mountain
    standing in the journey's way.

[01:46] ---
    Tall, steep, cold, and unforgiving.
[01:50] ---
    The demon spirit dwelling there
    tears the travelers' dreams to pieces,

[01:53] ---
    and sends them down to the land of defeat.
[01:55] ---
    No one hears the travelers' screams.
[02:00] ---
    "The Electric Fireworks"
[02:05] ---
    Now then, what shall I do with you?
[02:09] ---
    I could hack you to pieces
    as an example for others.
[02:11] ---
    Or should I...
[02:17] ---
    Could an old-type like you
    have possibly injured me?
[02:23] ---
    Very well.
[02:24] ---
    Taking a life for no reason runs
    contrary to my Comrade's plan.
[02:28] ---
    I only need to get rid of
    the things which trouble him.
[02:33] ---
    I'll give you 3 days. I want
    you gone from here by then.
[02:37] ---
    And don't ever come after my Comrade again.
[02:43] ---
    Van! Van!
[02:45] ---
    Hey, can you hear me? Say something, Van!
[02:49] ---
    Van, come on!
[02:50] ---
    You're OK, right?
[02:52] ---
    You can hear me, can't you? Answer me!
[02:55] ---
    Hey, look! I brought your puzzle!
[02:58] ---
    So you can't just lie here and sleep!
[03:01] ---
    You can have whatever you want to eat!
[03:03] ---
    So answer me, Van!
[03:07] ---
    Van!
[03:26] ---
    Mother! Mother!
[03:29] ---
    I'm back, Mother.
[03:33] ---
    Please be happy. I've triumphed!
[03:37] ---
    I've utterly destroyed the people
    who wanted to interfere with him.
[03:42] ---
    Van is probably running away
    with his tail between his legs right now.
[03:46] ---
    William has carried out his mission!
[03:53] ---
    I see.
[03:54] ---
    Mother, I have to make a revision
    to the report I just gave you.
[04:00] ---
    But even so, I will settle this matter
[04:02] ---
    3 days from now, on the
    anniversary of your death.
[04:26] ---
    I'm fine.
[04:48] ---
    I'm alive.
[05:04] ---
    Hey.
[05:10] ---
    Wendy?
[05:14] ---
    You're awake.
[05:16] ---
    Sorry, I fell asleep by mistake.
[05:21] ---
    Damn it. What do I do?
[05:24] ---
    There must be something. Anything!
[05:25] ---
    Hello? Is anybody here?
[05:27] ---
    I need a doctor.
[05:37] ---
    Sorry.
[05:39] ---
    I don't know what kind of god you are...
[05:41] ---
    but I need all the food
    and medicine immediately.
[06:33] ---
    Sleep.
[06:34] ---
    But...
[06:35] ---
    You've still got a fever.
[06:39] ---
    There must have been someone else here.
[06:42] ---
    No. It's mechanized.
[06:45] ---
    I see.
[06:46] ---
    There's no one here.
    But then what's it ringing for?
[06:52] ---
    The day after tomorrow...
[06:58] ---
    Don't worry. I'll think of something.
[07:05] ---
    You left it on the airship.
    It's important, right?
[07:08] ---
    It's nothing all that special.
[07:11] ---
    It's OK now. Go to sleep.
[07:13] ---
    I'm gonna go look for something to eat.
[07:16] ---
    Oh, you can drink that
    water there if you want.
[07:18] ---
    All right then.
[07:20] ---
    Van.
[07:22] ---
    Don't overdo it.
[07:24] ---
    Yeah.
[07:31] ---
    There's nothing.
[07:34] ---
    I could use Dann.
[07:37] ---
    Still haven't finished your repairs yet?
[07:40] ---
    What's that? Damaged the exterior, did you?
[07:44] ---
    I was trying to get him
    to walk and I stumbled.
[07:46] ---
    I'll get it right tomorrow.
[07:47] ---
    That's not gonna happen.
[07:49] ---
    We're launching him tomorrow.
    Wait until the next inspection.
[07:53] ---
    While he's still damaged?
[07:54] ---
    He repairs automatically.
[07:56] ---
    What do you mean?
[07:58] ---
    What would you do with it if it was yours?
[08:02] ---
    I don't know. Make it
    run, transform itself...
[08:07] ---
    You are like a kid.
[08:08] ---
    Did I say something wrong?
[08:12] ---
    Try and solve it.
[08:13] ---
    I don't want this thing.
[08:15] ---
    Keep it.
[08:16] ---
    You could say it's a
    kind of training device.
[08:18] ---
    Is it for Armor?
[08:20] ---
    It's cause you're still a kid.
[08:22] ---
    Don't think and try not
    to let your mind wander.
[08:25] ---
    So, you don't want me to use my brain?
[08:28] ---
    In your case, that's best.
[08:31] ---
    What's that supposed to mean?
[08:33] ---
    Van, have you ever truly
    thought that you might die?
[08:45] ---
    Mother, until today, I sought to have you.
[08:50] ---
    Your voice, your smile, your warmth.
[08:55] ---
    But you...
[08:59] ---
    I was jealous of him.
[09:02] ---
    The man you adored so much.
[09:05] ---
    I was so jealous I wanted to kill him!
[09:10] ---
    That's why I did it.
[09:15] ---
    I was a fool.
[09:17] ---
    To be loved, first I have to love.
[09:21] ---
    You taught me that yourself.
    And yet even so I...
[09:32] ---
    That's right.
[09:33] ---
    If I had loved my father,
    I could reach you.
[09:36] ---
    That's why now, for the
    sake of my mission...
[09:42] ---
    Goodbye, Mother
[09:46] ---
    Comrade, I don't mean to interfere but...
[09:50] ---
    Might I suggest, even now,
    that you tell Wo to kill that man?
[09:56] ---
    "The Time of Happiness" is near at hand.
[09:59] ---
    I believe, perhaps it would be wise
    to get rid of any causes for concern.
[10:03] ---
    -Michael.
    -Yes.
[10:05] ---
    Don't you think it's up to the world
    to be the judge of those things?
[10:10] ---
    I'm sure Wo is aware of that.
[10:15] ---
    With or without your concern,
[10:17] ---
    if the flower is mistaken,
    it will fall all by itself.
[10:22] ---
    I'm sorry. I was out of line.
[10:25] ---
    Please don't let it bother you.
[10:27] ---
    I enjoy our talks, and I want
    you to gain all sorts of experience.
[10:32] ---
    Experience?
[10:33] ---
    Yes.
[10:35] ---
    I want you to gain experience and
    learn to be brave enough to abandon it.
[10:39] ---
    Someday I'm sure you'll understand.
[10:45] ---
    Sorry, same thing as yesterday.
[10:47] ---
    No, that's OK.
[10:49] ---
    The only place that had anything that
    looked edible was the woods in back.
[10:52] ---
    Don't worry so much.
[10:55] ---
    You've still got a fever?
[11:00] ---
    Why are you being so kind?
[11:03] ---
    I don't know. I wonder why.
[11:10] ---
    I'm gonna search for more in the woods.
[11:42] ---
    Why? Why?!
[11:45] ---
    All I need to do is to go over
    there and cut him to pieces now!
[11:49] ---
    That's what I've always done in the past.
[11:52] ---
    If I don't, then Elena's death will...
[12:07] ---
    Tomorrow.
[12:14] ---
    Wendy! Wake up, Wendy!
[12:17] ---
    We gotta get out of here, right now!
[12:20] ---
    If we leave now, he won't find us.
[12:23] ---
    It's gonna take a while
    before Dann's completely repaired.
[12:25] ---
    And I'm not well, either.
[12:27] ---
    Besides, if we fight, you might
    end up getting caught in the middle.
[12:30] ---
    The important thing is
    to get to the meet up point.
[12:32] ---
    If we cross the mountain,
    we'll find a doctor.
[12:36] ---
    We can't afford to sit
    around here wasting time.
[12:38] ---
    Right?
[12:43] ---
    Go.
[12:45] ---
    Leave me here and go on ahead.
[12:47] ---
    What are you talking about?
[12:49] ---
    You can't hide it from me.
[12:52] ---
    If you're gonna run away,
    then run away by yourself.
[13:04] ---
    I've been on my own ever since I was born.
[13:08] ---
    I don't know who my parents
    were or what happened to them.
[13:13] ---
    The only thing I thought about was eating,
[13:15] ---
    and all I needed for that
    was money and strength.
[13:20] ---
    For me, the world was simple...
[13:23] ---
    until I met Elena.
[13:26] ---
    I was just supposed to be
    someone she worked with.
[13:32] ---
    Supposed to be.
[13:34] ---
    But she was...
[13:36] ---
    kind to me.
[13:40] ---
    Until then, I was punched
    and kicked and spat on.
[13:46] ---
    But I'd still beat the
    hell out of those people.
[13:50] ---
    That's what other people were to me.
[13:54] ---
    But even so, Elena took me by the hand.
[13:59] ---
    I realized how miserable
    I'd been up 'til then.
[14:05] ---
    I thought she was going to help change me.
[14:08] ---
    And so that's why... Gadved too...
[14:11] ---
    Elena was... I liked her.
[14:16] ---
    I really liked her.
[14:19] ---
    The only thing I wanted was to be with her.
[14:24] ---
    She told me she'd be with me.
[14:28] ---
    She said she'd live with me.
[14:31] ---
    And yet, we weren't able to.
[14:35] ---
    I wasn't able to protect her.
[14:38] ---
    I'd finally found the
    most important thing...
[14:43] ---
    I can't do anything! I'm just alive.
[14:46] ---
    They even reconstructed
    me so I could ride Dann.
[14:48] ---
    But it's no use!
[14:49] ---
    The only thing to do is run away.
    There's no other option, is there?!
[14:53] ---
    But what's wrong with that?
    What's wrong with just being alive?!
[14:57] ---
    What more do they want from me?!
[14:59] ---
    Tell me!
[15:03] ---
    Run away.
[15:04] ---
    Run away somewhere. We'll say goodbye here.
[15:09] ---
    Don't worry. No one's going to blame you.
[15:14] ---
    But I'm going.
[15:16] ---
    Even if I get killed in the process,
    I want to go forward.
[15:18] ---
    Even if I only make it
    a tiny bit closer to my brother,
[15:20] ---
    I want to see if the path I chose is right.
[15:23] ---
    Van, you're the one who taught me.
[15:37] ---
    What's the matter?
[15:38] ---
    Can't you try and look even a little happy?
[15:41] ---
    But we're doing that
    thing again, aren't we?
[15:43] ---
    You can't be serious!
[15:45] ---
    I've had enough of this one.
    The test we did before is plenty.
[15:48] ---
    Not again. All you do is lie.
[15:50] ---
    Lie?
[15:52] ---
    Even if you try to hide it, I can tell.
[15:54] ---
    You're happy that you'll be able
    to ride Dann again, aren't you?
[15:56] ---
    That's ridiculous!
[15:58] ---
    You try and hide your feelings
    whenever you get close to someone.
[16:03] ---
    Why don't you try being
    a little more honest?
[16:05] ---
    I'm sure it'll change you somehow.
[16:08] ---
    It's too late for me to change now.
[16:10] ---
    Well then, I'll help you.
[16:22] ---
    Elena, it seems I don't want to die.
[16:26] ---
    Wendy says so too.
[16:27] ---
    I'm running away.
    I'm through with vengeance.
[16:32] ---
    And with you as well.
[16:34] ---
    But the reason I am who I am now,
    is because you helped me.
[16:40] ---
    You only exist within me now.
[16:44] ---
    Together with me...
[16:47] ---
    Together?
[16:48] ---
    But that means...
[17:21] ---
    Elena! I love you!
[17:23] ---
    I'm head over heels in
    love with you, Elena!
[17:43] ---
    I will now confirm.
    You may withdraw just as you are.
[17:47] ---
    But if you intend to oppose me,
[17:50] ---
    my Metsä will rid you from these lands.
[17:53] ---
    Go ahead. Do whatever you want.
[17:56] ---
    If you want to cut me, cut me.
    If you want to kill me, kill me.
[17:59] ---
    But there is one thing that
    neither you, nor anyone else, can do.
[18:04] ---
    Separate me from Elena.
[18:07] ---
    You've reached your decision?
[18:13] ---
    Van.
[18:14] ---
    Forgive me Father, for I take a life.
[18:24] ---
    That's it!
[18:26] ---
    I get it! I mustn't try
    to control it so hard.
[18:30] ---
    Like the way Pricilla is with her Armor.
[18:32] ---
    Is that what you meant, Gadved,
    when you told me "Don't think"?
[18:35] ---
    I am Dann! That's it.
    That's what you meant!
[18:41] ---
    Face this way, you fool.
[18:47] ---
    What's your problem?
    You're still waiting to attack?
[18:52] ---
    Bravo. Well done.
[18:54] ---
    You've learned the electromagnetic shield.
[18:56] ---
    Oh, is that what it's called?
    You're a real chum.
[19:00] ---
    Don't mock me!
[19:02] ---
    But it doesn't always work!
[19:07] ---
    I guess I just got lucky...
[19:10] ---
    but who cares.
[19:12] ---
    Say, Elena, how about we
    live a little longer?
[19:20] ---
    What's going on?
[19:22] ---
    What happened to him
    in just three short days?
[19:25] ---
    I wonder if it's love.
[19:27] ---
    You too?
[19:30] ---
    Very well.
[19:31] ---
    Then you shall fall before my love!
[19:34] ---
    Love! Mission!
[19:43] ---
    You! Remove those filthy
    legs from my castle!
[19:48] ---
    I don't want to. You'll have to make me.
[19:56] ---
    Get off my sanctuary,
[19:58] ---
    you defective reconstructed human failure!
[20:04] ---
    I'm not done yet!
    I'll skewer you from head to foot.
[20:11] ---
    It can't be!
[20:12] ---
    Sorry. It was a real pain catching you.
[20:18] ---
    That's still not enough
    to splinter my love!
[20:21] ---
    That's why I abandoned my mother! For him!
[20:25] ---
    Then you don't have a chance.
[20:27] ---
    I can't be stopped by
    someone who abandons others.
[20:30] ---
    You're wrong!
[20:31] ---
    Abandoning my mother only
    served to help fulfill her dream!
[20:37] ---
    Chesto!
[20:42] ---
    My Metsä!
[21:08] ---
    Why? Why did this happen?
[21:14] ---
    No! I can't shed this blood for no reason!
[21:17] ---
    This blood...
[21:19] ---
    I offer all of it to him.
[21:22] ---
    To him... to him...
[21:25] ---
    I offer it to him!
[21:36] ---
    Comrade, Wo is...
[21:38] ---
    his vital signs are gone.
[21:42] ---
    Oh really?
[21:44] ---
    Comrade, I...
[21:46] ---
    There's no need to worry.
    We have blood in stock.
[21:50] ---
    Right now, we should be thankful
    to Wo for delaying them for us.
[21:56] ---
    Can I really have it?
[21:59] ---
    Yeah, it's yours. In exchange I...
[22:01] ---
    I know. About last night...
[22:03] ---
    It was a dream.
[22:05] ---
    Right.
[22:07] ---
    Is it OK for me to put the puzzle
    back to the way it was before?
[22:09] ---
    I'd rather you hang it around your neck.
[22:12] ---
    It suits you much better than a turtle.
[22:15] ---
    You don't have to put it so harshly.
[22:18] ---
    No, it's just...
[22:20] ---
    I wanted to say something before but...
[22:24] ---
    What?
[22:27] ---
    I don't like turtles.
[22:31] ---
    You don't?
[22:32] ---
    Sorry.
[23:56] ---
    "Follow the X Spot"
[23:58] ---
    That was the end of our
    just-the-two-of-us journey.

[24:00] ---
    From there on out,
    we were all together again.

[24:03] ---
    Yes, Carmen, and Joshua, and all the rest.
[24:08] ---
    All of a sudden things
    got a lot more lively.

[24:11] ---
    Van was even more
    confused than I was.

[24:13] ---
    We met up in the town
    of Missoghi. Do you know it?

[24:17] ---
    At that time, it was a most unusual place.
[24:20] ---
