[00:07] Latina
    Your tummy's gotten so big, Rita.
[00:16] Latina
    It's moving!
[00:17] Latina
    Having such a big tummy...
     Is it heavy?
[00:20] Rita
    It sure is.
[00:22] Rita
    And it's done a real number
    on my back and hips.
[00:25] Latina
    Do you want me to cast healing magic?
[00:26] Rita
    Thanks for offering,
[00:28] Rita
    but I don't want to take it too easy.
[00:31] Latina
    You don't?
[00:33] Rita
    Having a baby is a big-time job, after all.
[00:36] Latina
    Moms are amazing.
[00:40] Latina
    This hair ribbon is a good luck charm.
[00:43] Latina
    I was told to wear it during our trip.
[00:46] Latina
    You can borrow it, Rita.
[00:48] Rita
    I appreciate the thought.
[00:50] Rita
    But it's okay, considering...
[00:53] Rita
    You already gave me this!
[00:56] Rita
    Besides, the ribbon was made for you.
     You should wear it.
[01:02] Rita
    It really is lovely, though.
[01:04] Latina
    Well, the thing is,
[01:06] Latina
    I made a friend in Teathrow,
    and they helped make it!
[01:11] Rita
    I see. You've even got friends
     over there, now.
[01:14] Dale
    A "friend," huh?
[01:16] Ken
    Is it the bad kind of friend?
[01:18] Dale
    It turns out that there's a phantasmic
    beast habitat next to our village.
[01:23] Ken
    Phantasmic beasts? You're kidding, right?
[01:26] Dale
    If an adventurer obsessed with money
     made a move on them,
[01:29] Dale
    I doubt there'd be enough left
     to bury, afterward.
[01:31] Ken
    Even if it was you?
[01:33] Dale
    I chatted with the leader of the pack.
[01:36] Dale
    And I don't like the idea
    of having to take him on.
[01:39] Ken
    I see.
[01:40] Dale
    And that pack leader took a liking to her.
[01:42] Ken
    To who?
[01:44] Dale
    Latina, who else?
[01:46] Ken
    I get it.
[01:47] Dale
    So that means her hair ribbon was made
     from materials provided by phantasmic beasts.
[01:52] Ken
    That's quite the accessory.
[01:54] Dale
    Among the goods my people produce,
    it's pretty fancy stuff.
[01:57] Helmine
    This really is beautifully made.
[02:02] Dale
    Helmine?!
[02:04] Helmine
    We meet again, Dale.
SIGN    The Young Girl's Wish.
[03:44] Latina
    Who's this?
[03:45] Helmine
    So this is our little mage, then?
[03:47] Latina
    I'm not little!
[03:49] Dale
    Wh-Why are you here?
[03:52] Helmine
    I figured you would be coming back soon,
     so I came to see you.
[03:55] Helmine
    I'm going to be joining you on your next job.
[03:58] Dale
    Say what now?!
[03:59] Helmine
    Do you have any rooms available?
[04:01] Rita
    Yes, we do.
[04:03] Dale
    You're not gonna stay here, are you?!
[04:05] Helmine
    It's what makes sense, considering.
[04:08] Dale
    But there are other places you could stay!
[04:09] Helmine
    We're heading to the royal capital next week,
     so keep that in mind.
[04:13] Ken
    You haven't gotten any better
    at dealing with her, I see.
[04:16] Dale
    I-I don't know that I'd say that.
[04:19] Helmine
    Aw, and after all those sweet things
     you used to say?
[04:23] Ken
    You haven't changed a bit,
    even from when I was a rookie.
[04:26] Helmine
    And yet, you never really showed
     any interest in me.
[04:30] Ken
    Well, I married the type of girl
    I'm attracted to, after all.
[04:33] Helmine
    Not mincing any words, are you?
[04:35] Rita
    Well, Latina's a girl, too, after all.
[04:41] Dale
    Latina?
[04:42] Latina
    Dale, do you have another job?
    Is it going to take a long time?
[04:46] Dale
    Yeah, I'm sorry.
[04:47] Dale
    I'm gonna be leaving you on your own
     for a while again.
[04:50] Latina
    No, it's okay.
[04:52] Latina
    I'll make sure to take care of things
     while you're gone.
[04:56] Rita
    Someone wants to return that hug.
[04:59] Helmine
    But he won't, because Helmine is here.
[05:01] Rita
    I'll wait for you, Dale.
[05:04] Rita
    But I wish you could stay a little longer.
[05:08] Helmine
    Someone seems a little hungry for attention.
[05:10] Dale
    It's my fault,
     since I'm always leaving her for work!
[05:14] Dale
    And she tries so hard while I'm gone!
[05:17] Helmine
    Oh, I see.
     You're actually the one who's clingy.
[05:22] Helmine
    Well, I'll see you around, Dale.
[05:25] Latina
    Dale...
[05:26] Latina
    Is that lady someone you work with?
[05:29] Dale
    Yeah. Attitude aside,
    Helmine is a skilled mage.
[05:34] Latina
    You only know her from work?
[05:35] Dale
    We're just... work acquaintances. Yep.
[05:42] Dale
    Latina?
[05:43] Latina
    I'll be bigger when I grow up.
[05:46] Latina
    I'm only little because I'm still young.
[05:49] Dale
    You're fine as you are, Latina! And cute!
[05:53] Latina
    I don't want to stay little!
[05:56] Latina
    I want to grow up!
[05:58] Latina
    Latina's a girl, too, you know.
     She can probably tell.
[06:03] Ken
    Women's intuition can be scary.
[06:07] Gregor
    There has been suspicious activity
    in neighboring territories.
[06:10] Gregor
    I'm currently escorting my father and brother
    as they deal with the matter.
[06:17] Gregor
    As the letter from my father explains,
[06:19] Gregor
    in the near future, a force will
    be tasked with subjugating demons.
[06:22] Gregor
    Your official report on this mission can wait
    until we convene for that.
[06:28] Dale
    To think I'd be teamed up with her...
[06:33] Dale
    Latina? Latina?
[06:36] Latina
    What is it?
[06:37] Dale
    C-Can I... cheer you up?
[06:40] Latina
    I'm not in a bad mood.
[06:43] Latina
    I'm just focusing on my studying.
[06:47] Dale
    Except I've never seen her
    in such a bad mood...
[06:52] Latina
    Dale.
[06:53] Dale
    Yes?!
[06:54] Latina
    I'm not mad, okay?
[06:56] Latina
    So you don't need to be so worried.
[06:59] Dale
    B-But...
[07:00] Latina
    You don't need to worry.
[07:04] Dale
    Well, I'll be downstairs.
[07:06] Latina
    Okay. I'm going to keep going
     until I get to a good stopping point.
[07:10] Dale
    O-Okay.
[07:12] Dale
    How about lunch when you finish?
[07:14] Latina
    Okay!
[07:25] Latina
    I really wish I could grow up sooner.
[07:32] Ken
    You really ought to hold back
    on the booze, just in case.
[07:34] Dale
    I'm not a kid anymore.
     I'm not gonna let my judgment get impaired.
[07:38] Ken
    I mean... You're over her, right?
[07:41] Dale
    I've been over her for a long time!
[07:44] Dale
    So bitter...
[07:45] Ken
    Well, you're probably more worried
    about Latina being in a bad mood.
[07:50] Dale
    Exactly! Why? Why's she so upset?
[07:56] Ken
    Come on, man.
     She's not gonna be a kid forever.
[08:03] Latina
    What are you doing?
[08:04] Rita
    Oh, Latina, what were you doing?
[08:07] Latina
    Studying. Since school is off today.
[08:11] Rita
    That's impressive.
[08:13] Latina
    I like studying.
[08:15] Latina
    Plus... it helps me not to
    think about... things.
[08:18] Ken
    She's clearly the more mature one.
[08:23] Helmine
    You seem well, Jilvester.
[08:25] Jilvester
    As luck would have it. I hear something
    major is going down in the capital.
[08:30] Helmine
    If you were still in the game,
     I would've come straight to you for help.
[08:37] Latina
    Here is your order.
[08:40] Cedrick
    What's wrong with the little miss?
[08:42] Douglas
    I'm guessing her.
[08:44] Cedrick
    Oh yeah, she and Dale used to be a thing.
[08:48] Cedrick
    I think it's cute.
[08:49] Cedrick
    I bet she's worried
     that Dale's gonna be stolen away.
[08:53] Amos
    Gotta say... That is still one fine woman.
[08:57] Bosco
    Get a load of that chest.
     It's practically spilling out.
[08:59] Amos
    Maybe bigger is better after all!
[09:04] Latina
    Here, Mr. Jil.
[09:06] Jilvester
    Hey, missy. Appreciate it.
[09:08] Helmine
    She really is adorable.
[09:11] Latina
    I'm working right now.
[09:13] Helmine
    There are a lot of things
     you can only enjoy when you're a kid.
[09:17] Helmine
    So I wouldn't be in a hurry to grow up.
[09:20] Latina
    I'll grow up soon!
[09:28] Chloe
    And she's staying at the Tabby Cat?
[09:30] Latina
    Yeah.
[09:31] Sylvia
    Is this lady a mage?
[09:34] Latina
    Do you know her, Sylvia?
[09:36] Sylvia
    She talked with my dad
     and wanted to know where to find adventurers.
[09:41] Sylvia
    She's supposed to be famous in the capital.
[09:45] Latina
    She's always talking about how little I am!
     It's terrible!
[09:51] Latina
    I might be an apprentice,
    but I'm still working.
[09:54] ---
    And she says I'm a little kid!
[09:56] Latina
    I wish I could grow up faster.
[09:59] Chloe
    You can't help it.
     We're still kids, after all.
[10:02] Sylvia
    And we're going to grow up,
    whether we like it or not!
[10:05] Latina
    If I were grown up,
     I wouldn't have to stay home and wait.
[10:08] Latina
    I bet I could know even more about Dale.
[10:13] Rudy
    Well, you are pretty little, Latina.
[10:15] Latina
    I've already grown!
[10:17] Anthony
    Rudy!
[10:18] Marcel
    Don't!
[10:18] Rudy
    See? You wouldn't be so worried
    if you weren't actually little.
[10:23] Rudy
    You even talk like a baby!
[10:26] Latina
    Like a baby...?
[10:28] Latina
    I know that compared to Rita and Clarissa...
[10:30] Latina
    Even Grandma, I'm different, but...
[10:36] (Flashback) Maya
    Atia! Maya's!
[10:39] Latina
    So I'm like Maya?!
[10:43] Chloe
    Hey! Latina?!
[10:44] Sylvia
    What's wrong?!
[10:47] Chloe
    Latina!
[10:51] Latina
    Kenneth...
[10:53] Ken
    What's up?
[10:54] Latina
    When I get older, will I get bigger?
[10:58] Ken
    You're already taller than you were
     when you first showed up.
[11:05] Latina
    But I might not be very big,
    even after I grow up.
[11:09] Latina
    Rag used to say I took after Mov.
[11:13] Ken
    "Mov"?
[11:14] Latina
    Yeah.
[11:15] Latina
    Mov was small,
     so I wonder whether I'm going to stay small.
[11:19] Ken
    Who's Mov?
[11:21] Latina
    My female parent.
[11:23] Latina
    My mother.
[11:25] Ken
    What was she like?
[11:27] Latina
    The color of my hair and eyes
     are the same as Rag's,
[11:31] Latina
    but the shape of my horns and face
     are supposed to look a lot like Mov's.
[11:37] Latina
    Hers were little,
     even though she was grown up.
[11:41] Ken
    Uh, Latina...
[11:42] Latina
    What?
[11:43] Ken
    When you're talking about your mother
    being little, what do you mean?
[11:48] Latina
    Her chest.
[11:51] Ken
    Maybe you should talk to Rita about this?
[11:53] Latina
    Rita's not big, either!
[11:55] Latina
    I can't talk about it
     with someone who's not big.
[11:58] Latina
    I asked Mov why she was little once,
[12:02] Latina
    and she almost pulled my cheeks off!
[12:05] Ken
    Okay, okay. I get it.
[12:07] Ken
    Well, let's see.
[12:10] Ken
    Maybe you could drink more milk?
[12:13] Latina
    Will that make me bigger?!
[12:15] Ken
    Y-Yeah. That's what people believe, anyway.
[12:29] Vint
    Got 'em!
[12:31] Hagel
    Wendelgard, my friend...
[12:33] Wen
    What is it?
[12:34] Hagel
    This is your doing, isn't it?
[12:36] Wen
    Wanting to test your abilities,
[12:39] Wen
    and knowing to ask for help
     is a strength, I'd say.
[12:44] Wen
    The little pup is bound
    to have a bright future.
[12:47] Wen
    And maybe Latina will come along
    whenever the homesickness strikes.
[12:53] Hagel
    You... You think?
[12:57] Vint
    There! Going to Latina now!
[13:16] Dale
    Ever since Helmine started staying here,
[13:17] ---
    Latina's adorable smile has been gone.
[13:20] Dale
    Give me back my reason for living!
[13:22] Dale
    But I can't chase her out
    for something like that.
[13:26] Dale
    This sucks.
[13:27] Helmine
    Still drinking?
[13:30] Dale
    Are you off to see an ex or something?
[13:32] Helmine
    Will you be jealous if I do?
[13:34] Dale
    Of course not.
[13:36] Helmine
    I just wanted a drink before turning in.
[13:39] Dale
    You really oughta just pick a guy
     to settle down with.
[13:44] Helmine
    To hear that from you...
[13:46] Helmine
    You really have gotten older.
[13:48] Dale
    Well, for me, it's been a long time.
[13:51] Helmine
    You might be right.
[13:55] Helmine
    Kenneth!
[13:56] Helmine
    Can I get something to drink?
[13:59] Ken
    Here you go.
[14:00] Ken
    We're closed, so you two enjoy yourselves.
[14:03] Helmine
    Thank you!
[14:04] Dale
    Come on, Kenneth!
[14:05] Ken
    Just keep it down!
[14:09] Helmine
    It's a bad idea...
[14:12] Helmine
    To try and fit us into the kind
     of sense your lives make.
[14:14] Dale
    Is this a lecture?
[14:16] Helmine
    More like advice.
[14:18] Helmine
    Races with long lifespans....
[14:21] Helmine
    Dedicating your life to one person
    is talked about as if it's something beautiful,
[14:25] Helmine
    but it's not realistic.
[14:28] Helmine
    Are we supposed to spend the rest of our lives
     in mourning when they pass on first?
[14:34] Helmine
    That's just cruel.
[14:36] Helmine
    Which is why a lot of us
    don't have a special someone.
[14:40] Helmine
    Because the more you care,
[14:42] Helmine
    the more painful goodbye becomes.
[14:49] Helmine
    There's a special kind of pain
     and wisdom that comes from a long life.
[14:53] Helmine
    You're that girl's guardian right now,
     aren't you?
[14:55] Dale
    If I die someday, will you help her out?
[15:00] Helmine
    I certainly won't.
[15:01] Helmine
    So if you care about her,
     try to live as long as you can.
[15:10] Marcel
    See you, Rudy!
[15:11] Rudy
    Yeah. See you around.
[15:13] Anthony
    See you tomorrow!
[15:14] Girl A
    I'm leaving!
[15:16] Girl B
    Hold on!
[15:17] Chloe
    We won't be spending every day
    together for much longer, huh?
[15:21] Sylvia
    Once fall arrives, that's it for our two years
     of studying at an Asfar school.
[15:26] Latina
    What're you going to do after we graduate?
[15:28] Chloe
    Help my mom with tailoring work.
[15:32] Latina
    I'm going to order clothes from you
    with my pay from the Tabby Cat, okay?
[15:36] Chloe
    Yeah!
[15:36] Chloe
    I'll make something special
    that'll look great on you!
[15:39] Chloe
    What about you, Sylvia?
[15:41] Sylvia
    I'm going into the temple of Akhdar.
[15:43] Chloe
    Don't Akhdar's priests travel
     all over the world?
[15:47] Latina
    Then we won't get to see you much anymore...
[15:50] Sylvia
    The Tabby Cat has an Akhdar's flag on it,
[15:54] Sylvia
    so there should be plenty
    of ways to stay in contact.
[15:56] Sylvia
    And then one day, I hope to go to Vassilios!
[15:59] Chloe
    Isn't that...?
[16:01] Latina
    Yeah. It's the devil race's nation.
[16:03] Latina
    Oh, I need to head home first today!
[16:06] Chloe
    Do you have something to do?
[16:08] Latina
    Dale's going to the capital soon,
    so I'm helping him get ready.
[16:11] Chloe
    See you!
[16:19] Latina
    Rudy!
[16:22] Rudy
    L-Latina...
[16:24] Rudy
    S-So about the other day...
[16:27] Rudy
    I wanted to say I'm sorry.
[16:28] Latina
    What for?
[16:29] Rudy
    Y'know... Saying you're little. And a baby.
[16:32] Latina
    I'm not worried about it.
[16:35] Latina
    Oh, I said it again.
[16:37] Rudy
    You're fine the way you are.
[16:39] Rudy
    It's more... like you, I guess.
[16:43] Latina
    You know, today I was talking
    with Chloe and Sylvia.
[16:47] Latina
    What are you and the others
    going to do when school is over?
[16:50] Rudy
    Marcel said he'd be working at his parents' bakery.
[16:54] Latina
    Maybe I can get Marcel to teach me
     how to make bread.
[16:59] Rudy
    He loves baking as much
    as he loves eating, so probably.
[17:04] Rudy
    Anthony says he's going to move
    onto the next level of school.
[17:08] Latina
    I wonder what kind of things they study.
[17:11] Latina
    Maybe I can ask him someday.
    What about you, Rudy?
[17:16] Rudy
    I'm gonna join the town guard.
[17:18] Latina
    The town guard?
[17:20] Rudy
    That's the only thing around here
[17:23] Rudy
    that can compete with the
    adventurers, after all.
[17:26] Latina
    What did you say?
[17:27] Rudy
    S-So what you do is join a reserve squad,
[17:31] Rudy
    where they train you to join the main force!
[17:35] Latina
    There are lots of town guards
     who come to the Tabby Cat, too.
[17:39] Latina
    I'll tell them to look out for you!
[17:42] Rudy
    Aw, you don't have to do that.
[17:43] Rudy
    S-So, what about you?
[17:47] Rudy
    What're you going to do?
[17:51] Latina
    I'm...
[17:53] Latina
    I want to grow up soon.
[17:57] Dale
    You can take all the time you need, you know.
[18:01] Latina
    But I still want to.
[18:03] Dale
    I was basically forced to grow up
    as fast as possible,
[18:07] Dale
    so I wish Latina would take her time.
[18:12] Latina
    When will you come home this time, Dale?
[18:14] Dale
    I think in a month.
[18:17] Dale
    Two, maybe, if things go poorly.
[18:20] Dale
    I'm really sorry.
[18:21] Latina
    No. It's okay.
[18:24] Dale
    It is, huh?
[18:27] (Flashback) Latina
    Dale! Dale!
[18:28] (Flashback) Dale
    I'm not leaving you.
[18:30] Dale
    (Problem, none.)
[18:30] (Flashback) Dale
    Rainedo merubolbu.
[18:32] (Flashback) Dale
    It's okay.
[18:34] (Flashback) Latina
    It's... okay...?
[18:36] Dale
    Do you remember?
     That was the first time you spoke our language.
[18:41] Latina
    Yeah. I remember.
[18:43] Dale
    Oh, Latina!
[18:45] Latina
    What is it?
[18:46] Dale
    You want to go out tomorrow?
[18:48] Latina
    We can go out?
[18:49] Dale
    Yeah. Since we won't get to spend
    any time together for a while,
[18:52] ---
    just the two of us.
[18:53] Latina
    Sure! I want to go out.
[18:58] Dale
    It started pouring out of nowhere!
[18:59] Dale
    Sorry, Latina.
[19:01] Latina
    That's okay! This is a lot of fun!
[19:03] Latina
    But where are we going?
[19:05] Dale
    We're almost there!
[19:09] Dale
    And the second we arrive, it clears up.
[19:12] Latina
    Dale, isn't this...?
[19:14] Dale
    Yeah.
[19:17] Dale
    We haven't been by
     since we got back from Teathrow, right?
[19:20] Dale
    I figured he'd want to see you
     every now and then.
[19:22] Dale
    So he can see how much you've grown.
[19:31] Dale
    I'm probably going to die before she does.
[19:36] Dale
    But until then,
    I promise to keep her safe.
[19:41] Dale
    So, please, even if I do pass away,
[19:45] Dale
    look after her.
[19:49] (Flashback) Rag
    You should be able to find happiness.
[19:52] (Flashback) Rag
    You're allowed to be happy.
[19:55] (Flashback) Rag
    Fate will protect you.
[19:58] (Flashback) Rag
    So please... please be happy.
[20:02] (Flashback) Rag
    I'll be watching you,
     from now on... beyond the rainbow.
[20:06] Dale
    Latina!
[20:07] Dale
    I'm sorry! I'll let you know
    as soon as I can head back!
[20:12] Latina
    Okay.
[20:13] Dale
    Kenneth! Rita! Look after Latina for me!
[20:16] Ken
    I'm more worried about you.
[20:18] Rita
    By the time you get back,
[20:20] ---
    Latina's probably going to be a big sister.
[20:23] Latina
    Do you think the baby's a boy or a girl?
[20:26] Rita
    Either way is fine,
     as long as the baby's healthy.
[20:29] Dale
    I'm going now.
[20:30] Dale
    Have a safe trip!
[20:32] Dale
    One more time before I go...
[20:34] Helmine
    You really are starved
     for attention, aren't you?
[20:37] Dale
    I guess I'm going now.
[20:38] Latina
    Okay. Good luck with work!
[20:42] Dale
    If it weren't for you,
     I could've hugged her three more times.
[20:48] Dale
    Why exactly do I have
    to work with you, anyway?
[20:52] Dale
    Hey, Helmine, don't!
[20:55] Dale
    Latina!
[20:57] Dale
    Be a good girl!
[20:57] Latina
    I want to grow up.
[20:59] Latina
    This person who I love saved me.
[21:04] Latina
    I thought I was going to die in that forest.
[21:09] Latina
    But the last thing Rag asked for
    was for me to live,
[21:13] Latina
    so I thought I had to try to survive.
[21:16] Latina
    And then I found someone
    who saved my life, body, and soul.
[21:22] Latina
    The first person who ever hugged me and told
    me that he loved me other than my family.
[21:28] Latina
    He took me to a safe, warm place
    where I could be at home.
[21:29] Latina
    Rita! Are you okay?!
[21:32] Rita
    I think it's time.
[21:33] Latina
    Kenneth!
[21:34] Latina
    I love you all so much.
[21:35] Kenneth
    Rita?!
[21:36] Latina
    Get the doctor, quick!
[21:38] Ken
    Right!
[21:40] Latina
    I've been gifted with so much,
[21:43] Latina
    so I want to be able to give back.
[21:46] Latina
    Like that person,
    who's nicer than anyone I know...
[21:49] Latina
    I want to be able to save someone.
[21:55] Ken
    Rita! You did it!
[21:56] Latina
    There are things that I can do now
[21:58] Latina
    that should be easy once I'm grown up.
[22:02] Frida
    What do you think Latina's up to?
[22:05] Yorck
    Good question. I wonder.
[22:08] Yorck
    She's got a good head on her shoulders,
     in spite of how much my brother spoils her.
[22:11] Magda
    She certainly does.
[22:13] Magda
    Latina's a really good girl.
[22:15] Randolph
    I'm sure she's fine.
[22:18] Yorck
    Yeah.
[22:19] Yorck
    I'm sure the two of them will be fine.
[22:24] Latina
    When he's sad, or in pain...
[22:27] Latina
    If I were an adult, I'd be able to tell.
[22:39] Rita
    What are you guys doing? Honestly!
[22:42] Rita
    A bunch of grown men
     staring googly-eyed at a baby...
[22:45] Vint
    Latina?
[22:46] Vint
    Latina!
[22:47] Latina
    It's good to see you again!
[22:48] Latina
    I don't want to just be a little kid
    who's always protected.
[22:48] ---
    Atia!
[22:52] Latina
    Ow...
[22:53] Latina
    I want to be able to support him.
[22:56] Joseph
    Maya, calm down.
[22:58] Joseph
    Huh? Where's Dale?
[23:01] Latina
    I can't do those things
    now because I'm a little kid.
[23:11] Latina
    But I ought to be able to, once I'm grown up.
[23:16] Latina
    So I hope...
[23:19] Latina
    that I can grow up soon.
[23:21] Latina
    And then... I know...
[23:32] Latina
    Welcome home, Dale.
[23:34] Dale
    I'm back, Latina.
