[00:07] Kartatz
    Yeah, I don't think that's happening.
[00:09] Mai-Mai
    You need to think about
    this seriously, Kartatz!
[00:12] Kartatz
    Well, Mum's using her
    Isolation Barrier, right?
[00:15] Kartatz
    Do you really think you
    can break through that?
[00:20] Mai-Mai
    Mother is a high-class mage who,
    during the Seven Nations Era,
[00:24] Mai-Mai
    was one of the 24 transcendentals,
    and was acknowledged as
[00:29] Mai-Mai
    the Master of the Sacred Ruins
    from the Age of the Gods.
[00:33] Mai-Mai
    There's no way an ordinary mage
    like myself would stand a chance.
[00:38] Kartatz
    If you're calling yourself ordinary,
[00:41] Kartatz
    does that make the rest of the
    humans the lowest rank possible?
[00:46] Skargo
    Aha! I've got it!
[00:48] Kartatz
    Big Bro...
[00:49] Mai-Mai
    Have you thought of a way
    to tear down the barrier?
[00:51] Skargo
    No! I've figured out why Mother Dearest hit me!
[00:55] Skargo
    I was merely an eyesore to her
    because of how deplorable I looked!
[01:02] Skargo
    That must be it.
[01:09] Skargo
    I will go see Mother Dearest
    again dressed like this.
[01:13] Skargo
    Ah, yes. That's exactly what it was.
[01:21] Kartatz
    Oho, would you look at the time?
[01:24] Kartatz
    I'll catch you later.
[01:29] Kartatz
    I want to live to see another day, so...
[01:32] Kartatz
    Oh, well.
[01:35] Kartatz
    I guess I'll go pay Mum a visit.
[01:44] Kartatz
    I doubt it'll do any good, though.
[01:47] Cayna
    Mister, this is great!
[01:53] Kartatz
    M-Mum?!
[01:54] Cayna
    Oh? What's the matter, Kartatz?
[01:57] Cayna
    Want some meat?
[01:58] Kartatz
    Meat?
[02:00] Cayna
    Could I get two more, Mister?
[02:01] Kartatz
    What were we even worried about?
[02:03] Shopkeep
    You've got it!
SIGN    A Son, a Fight, a Journey, and Bandits
SIGN    A Son, a Fight, a Journey, and Bandits
[03:42] Cayna
    It's so good!
[03:45] Cayna
    Sorry I made you worry.
[03:48] Kartatz
    Did you ever! You really
    holed up in your barrier?
[03:52] Cayna
    I was feeling shocked about something,
    but then I got hungry.
[03:56] Cayna
    After I ate something yummy,
    none of it mattered anymore.
[04:01] Cayna
    There's no point in being
    sad or worrying about it.
[04:04] Cayna
    Isn't it dumb?
[04:06] Kartatz
    Tell me about it. Both Big Bro and Sis
    looked like the world was about to end.
[04:12] Kartatz
    Be sure you go and say hi to them later.
[04:16] Cayna
    Your Big Bro...
[04:18] Cayna
    So the blonde guy who barged into my room...
[04:22] Cayna
    really was Skargo.
[04:24] Kartatz
    That's the norm for him. Keep that in mind.
[04:29] Cayna
    So that's normal for him, huh?
[04:32] Cayna
    To think he's able to use the
[04:35] Cayna
    Special Skill: Roses Scatter
    with Beauty so perfectly.
[04:40] Cayna
    Oh, I know. I'll completely
    destroy his current personality,
[04:44] Cayna
    and then install a decent one.
[04:47] Kartatz
    Now hang on, Mum!
    What the hell are you thinking?!
[04:50] Kartatz
    Despite how he is, he's done so
    much for the sake of this country!
[04:55] Kartatz
    So despite how he is, at least
    acknowledge how much he cares!
[05:04] Cayna
    Kartatz...
[05:05] Kartatz
    Y-Yeah?
[05:06] Cayna
    You're right.
[05:08] Cayna
    I have no right to judge Skargo
[05:10] Cayna
    by his looks when I'm the one who
     registered him with the Foster System.
[05:16] Kartatz
    As long as you get it.
[05:19] Cayna
    I'm sorry.
[05:21] Kartatz
    A-Again! I'm not some kid!
[05:24] Kartatz
    Mum, you seem a bit different.
[05:26] Cayna
    Yeah, I might be. I do have
    all of you now, after all.
[05:32] Kartatz
    I have no idea what you're talking about.
[05:35] Cayna
    Even if all my player friends
    are gone, I still have a family.
[05:40] Cayna
    That's more than enough right now.
[05:44] Cayna
    Yeah... Thanks so much, Kartatz.
[05:49] Kartatz
    Seriously! I'm not a kid!
[05:57] Cayna
    What's that noise?
[05:58] Kartatz
    Ah... I guess Sis and
    Big Bro are still fighting.
[06:02] Cayna
    They're fighting?
    Well, I guess siblings do fight.
[06:08] Kartatz
    Sis and Big Bro put up a barrier in this room
[06:13] Kartatz
    so they could fight to their heart's content.
[06:18] Kartatz
    So, how are you going to calm them down?
[06:20] Cayna
    Probably like this.
[06:24] Kartatz
    Isn't that...
[06:28] Mai-Mai
    Why are you always so...
[06:29] Mai-Mai
    Mai!
[06:30] Cayna
    Three... two... one...
[06:31] Skargo
    It's for Mother Dearest's sake!
[06:37] Cayna
    Looks like that stopped it.
[06:41] Skargo
    M-Mother Dearest...
[06:43] Mai-Mai
    Mother.
[06:44] Cayna
    It looks like I worried you two.
[06:48] Cayna
    I'm sorry.
[06:49] Mai-Mai
    Wait! Why are you apologizing to us, Mother?
[06:52] Skargo
    Yes, Mai-Mai! This is all your fault!
[06:55] Skargo
    How dare you worry Mother Dearest like this?!
[07:00] Kartatz
    You might want to be quiet for a bit, Big Bro.
[07:03] Cayna
    I was caught up in selfish
    thoughts, got annoyed,
[07:09] Cayna
    and ended up being cruel to all of you.
[07:12] Cayna
    That makes me a failure as a mother.
[07:15] Cayna
    I'm very sorry.
[07:22] Skargo
    Mother Dearest, I'm terribly sorry.
[07:25] Mai-Mai
    I'm sorry, Mother.
[07:29] Skargo
    I hope we can go back to
    how things used to be.
[07:32] Mai-Mai
    Yes, we all do.
[07:34] Kartatz
    We only have one Mum, after all.
[07:37] Cayna
    Yes, of course, you three.
[07:41] Cayna
    On that note...
[07:42] Kids
    Yes?
[07:43] Cayna
    I have something else I'd like to
    discuss with Skargo and Mai-Mai.
[07:50] Kartatz
    Well, I think that's my cue to leave.
[07:53] Kartatz
    I've got so much work to do.
[07:56] Cayna
    See you later, Kartatz.
[07:57] Kartatz
    Yup. Bye!
[08:04] Mai-Mai
    M-M-Mother?
[08:06] Mai-Mai
    Wh-Wh-What are you...
[08:08] Skargo
    M-M-Mother Dearest, why are you so a-angry?
[08:12] Cayna
    No using on magic on each
    other every time you fight.
[08:16] Cayna
    As your mother, I guess I'll have to remind
    you of what should be common sense.
[08:22] Cayna
    Oh, and we should discuss you using
    that Special Skill of yours, Skargo.
[08:30] Mai-Mai
    I'm so sorry, Mother!
[08:33] Skargo
    Please forgive me, Mother Dearest!
[08:37] Kartartz
    Serves you both right.
[08:40] Elineh
    Lady Cayna, would you like to go up north?
[08:43] Cayna
    You mean to Helshper? Why?
[08:47] Elineh
    We were hoping you'd be our bodyguard
    on our journey to Helshper.
[08:51] Elineh
    We will pay you for your services, of course.
[08:54] Cayna
    A bodyguard? Is Helshper that dangerous?
[08:59] Elineh
    Yes, indeed. It is quite dangerous.
[09:05] Elineh
    The main road that connects
[09:07] Elineh
    the royal capital of Felskeilo
    and the royal capital of Helshper
[09:10] Elineh
    with the trading route that
    runs west is currently closed.
[09:15] Elineh
    So this time, we have to take
    this route across the river
[09:19] Elineh
    and head to their royal capital that way.
[09:21] Cayna
    The roads are closed? Was there a mudslide?
[09:24] Elineh
    No, it's due to bandits.
[09:26] Cayna
    Bandits, eh?
[09:28] Elineh
    There is an old, rundown fort here.
[09:32] Elineh
    Recently, bandits started
    using it as their base,
[09:34] Elineh
    and they've expanded
    their operations from there.
[09:37] Cayna
    I see.
[09:39] Elineh
    Is there any way you'd consider?
[09:41] Cayna
    Well...
[09:44] Cayna
    I mean... it's not like I have
    anything in particular to do.
[09:47] Cayna
    Going on a journey might
    be a nice change of pace.
[09:51] Cayna
    All right. I'll take the job.
[09:54] Elineh
    Thank you so much!
[10:00] Mai-Mai
    Mother! Make sure you come back!
[10:02] Cayna
    Come on! I can't breathe!
[10:05] Cayna
    I'll come right back after this job is done.
[10:09] Kartatz
    Big Bro got stuck in an important meeting
    and was crying because he couldn't be here.
[10:15] Cayna
    Well, if Skargo did show up,
    it'd be troublesome in its own way.
[10:19] Cayna
    Maybe it's better that he didn't come.
[10:21] Kartatz
    I sort of feel like it'd be a waste
    of time worrying about you anyway,
[10:24] Kartatz
    but be careful, Mum.
[10:25] Cayna
    And make sure you don't get
    hurt on the job, Kartatz.
[10:29] Kartatz
    Got it!
[10:30] Lonti
    U-Um, Sir Agaido and Pri—er, Primo
    also asked that you be careful.
[10:38] Cayna
    Thanks, Lonti.
[10:40] Lonti
    O-Of course. Please take care.
[10:43] Mai-Mai
    Oh, I just remembered. Here, Mother.
[10:46] Cayna
    For me?
[10:47] Mai-Mai
    No, actually, I was wondering if you could
    deliver this to a person named Caerick
[10:51] Mai-Mai
    who's at a shop called Sakaiya in Helshper.
[10:54] Cayna
    Sakaiya?
[10:56] Cayna
    Sure. You have friends in Helshper?
[11:04] Elineh
    Lady Cayna!
[11:06] Arbiter
    We're heading out, missy!
[11:09] Cayna
    Oh, sure. Okay, I'm gonna go.
[11:21] Kartatz
    Was that letter for... those guys?
[11:24] Mai-Mai
    Yes. I'm sure Mother will be quite surprised.
[11:30] Kartatz
    Surprised? I'm pretty sure she'll faint.
[11:37] Kartatz
    Dwarf Power Type Mon.
[11:39] Kartatz
    I love my Mum.
[11:42] Cayna
    There, there. There, there.
[11:49] Elineh
    This is the Ejidd River.
[11:51] Cayna
    Wow, it's kinda majestic.
[11:54] Cayna
    So... how are we getting across this thing?
[11:57] Arbiter
    Until about six months ago,
    there was a simple bridge made of logs.
[12:03] Kenison
    But a flood washed it away.
[12:05] Cayna
    What?
[12:06] Elineh
    Now, Lady Cayna, as for your services...
[12:11] Cayna
    Wait...
[12:13] Arbiter
    We're counting on you.
[12:14] Cayna
    What?!
[12:16] Cayna
    You're putting all this on me?
[12:18] Cayna
    Hmm...
[12:20] Cayna
    I can't exactly fly with all of you.
[12:23] Cayna
    Kee, would freezing the river work?
[12:27] Kee
    This would stop up the
    river's flow, like a dam,
[12:30] Kee
    which could actually cause
    everyone to be washed away.
[12:34] Cayna
    Yeah...
[12:36] Cayna
    In that case...
[12:40] Cayna
    I guess we could all walk across the water.
[12:47] Cayna
    There's no reason to be scared.
[12:49] Cayna
    We won't sink.
[12:51] Elineh
    That's not exactly reassuring.
[12:54] Arbiter
    This is rather impressive.
[12:56] Kenison
    I've heard of this before, but... I can't
    believe we're actually walking on water.
[13:01] Kenison
    Talk about a shock!
[13:02] Cayna
    Looks like the wagons are doing fine, too.
[13:08] Kenison
    We made it safely across.
[13:10] Arbiter
    Come on! Just a little bit more!
     You've got this!
[13:20] Arbiter
    Cut the ropes!
[13:24] Cayna
    Th-That startled me. What was that?
[13:28] Arbiter
    Probably a laigayanma larva.
[13:30] Cayna
    Larva? But that thing
    was bigger than a horse!
[13:33] Cayna
    Yikes!
[13:36] Arbiter
    Looks like we've lost a horse.
[13:39] Merc D
    The other horse is pretty spooked, too.
[13:41] Elineh
    We didn't have any casualties among
    our party and our goods are safe,
[13:45] Elineh
    so things are still acceptable.
[13:47] Arbiter
    But this isn't good.
[13:49] Arbiter
    There aren't any villages or cities
    around here where we can get a horse.
[13:53] Elineh
    Indeed.
[14:02] Cayna
    All right...
[14:16] Cayna
    There, there, Cerberwoof.
[14:19] Cayna
    How have you been, Centaur?
[14:21] Heigl
    It has been far too long, my lady.
[14:24] Cayna
    Yeah!
[14:29] Kee
    They seem frightened.
[14:31] Cayna
    Yeah, I can see that. Why, though?
[14:34] Arbiter
    Wh-What the heck are those things?!
[14:36] Cayna
    A cerberus and a centaur.
[14:38] Cayna
    I figured they could pull the wagon.
[14:40] Arbiter
    No way! They're going to
    spook the other horses!
[14:43] Cayna
    Really? They can't?
[14:45] Arbiter
    Of course not! Absolutely not!
[14:47] Heigl
    Then our hands are tied, my lady.
[14:49] Heigl
    Human folk never did
    take kindly to our ilk.
[14:54] Heigl
    Not to mention...
[14:55] Cayna
    Yeah?
[14:57] Heigl
    I do beg your pardon, my lady,
[14:59] Heigl
    but I'd rather not act as a pack horse.
[15:03] Cayna
    Oh, okay. Then... hmm...
[15:20] Cayna
    Well? It's cute enough that no
    one will have a problem, right?
[15:24] Arbiter
    Y-Yeah, maybe if it wasn't so big.
[15:30] Cayna
    I'm sorry, Li'l P. Would you
     mind pulling the wagon?
[15:36] Cayna
    Thank you!
[15:40] Elineh
    Th-Then let us continue on our way.
[15:43] Arbiter
    We'll probably make it to the
    Helshper checkpoint by evening.
[15:46] Arbiter
    We'll camp out there tonight.
[15:48] Mercs
    Yes, sir!
[15:50] Arbiter
    All right, let's go!
[15:54] Arbiter
    Our caravan is turning
    stranger by the minute.
[15:57] Cayna
    Yeah, that's it! You're doing great, Li'l P!
[16:01] Kenison
    Er... I can't say I've
    seen that beast before.
[16:05] Kenison
    What's it called?
[16:06] Cayna
    Huh? Oh, it's a baby crimson pig.
[16:10] Kenison
    Huh?!
[16:11] Cayna
    I hear they grow to be, like, 25 meters long.
[16:16] Cayna
    Huh? But look how cute it is.
[16:20] Cayna
    Isn't that right, Li'l P?
[16:26] Voice
    Be careful.
[16:28] Voice
    Malice ahead.
[16:33] Kee
    Please be on your guard.
    Something is wrong.
[16:38] Arbiter
    Halt!
[16:42] Cayna
    Arbiter!
[16:44] Arbiter
    You noticed it, too, missy?
[16:46] Arbiter
    There's definitely something wrong here.
[16:49] Cayna
    The checkpoint...
[16:52] Arbiter
    Hey! Show yourself!
[17:01] Arbiter
    Tch. Bandits.
[17:05] Cayna
    Arbiter, I'll keep an eye on the back!
[17:07] Arbiter
    Yeah, I'm counting on you.
[17:10] Cayna
    Please stay in the wagon, Elineh.
[17:13] Elineh
    R-Right.
[17:15] Cayna
    Can I leave the ones hiding
    around here to you two?
[17:20] Heigl
    Leave it to me, my lady. Those scoundrels...
[17:27] Heigl
    will be no more than rust on my
    spear when I'm done with them!
[17:33] Bandit Boss
    Your journey ends here.
[17:36] Bandit Boss
    We'll take real good care
    of that girl and your goods.
[17:40] Arbiter
    Don't think it'll be that easy.
[17:42] Bandit Boss
    What?
[18:05] Heigl
    Hear my voice far and wide!
    Those nearby, come witness!
[18:10] Heigl
    I am Heigl of the proud
    warrior tribe of centaurs!
[18:16] Arbiter
    Come on... Stop hogging the spotlight.
[18:19] Bandit Boss
    Wh-What the heck is that thing doing here?
[18:23] Cayna
    Oh, he actually has a name.
[18:32] Cayna
    This isn't a game. This is reality now.
[18:39] Arbiter
    So, what are you going to do?
[18:41] Arbiter
    Looks like your lackeys are all gone.
[18:44] Bandit boss
    D-Damn it.
[18:46] Bandit Boss
    But I still have this!
[18:48] Bandit boss
    Boot Up Fireball!
[18:58] Arbiter
    What're you aiming at?
[19:01] Arbiter
    Missy!
[19:02] Kenison
    Ms. Cayna!
[19:08] Bandit Boss
    How'd you like that?!
    That's what you get for defying me!
[19:13] Heigl
    Are you a fool? Like that measly little
    fireball could do anything to our lady.
[19:19] Bandit Boss
    Huh?
[19:27] Cayna
    Come forth, beauty of ice and snow!
[19:43] Bandit boss
    Wh-Wh-Wha...
[19:47] Cayna
    If you actually want to hurt me,
[19:50] Cayna
    you're gonna have to pull off
     a spell of at least this size.
[19:52] Cayna
    Magic Skill: Convert: Liza la Giga!
[20:00] Bandit Boss
    B-But that's something that gets
    hurled at the demon lord in fairy tales!
[20:10] Heigl
    Splendid work, my lady.
[20:24] Arbiter
    You're amazing, missy!
[20:26] Arbiter
    I mean, I knew you were amazing,
[20:28] Arbiter
    but I can't believe you're
    unscathed after taking that attack.
[20:32] Arbiter
    Wait, what's wrong? Are you actually hurt?
[20:35] Cayna
    Well... My hair got a little singed.
[20:39] Arbiter
    Oh, come on! Don't scare me like that.
[20:42] Arbiter
    I thought you were really hurt.
[20:45] Arbiter
    All right. First, we gotta
    get rid of the dead bodies.
[20:49] Arbiter
    Then we'll set up camp on the
    other side of the checkpoint.
[20:59] Elineh
    You were a big help, Lady Cayna.
[21:02] Elineh
    I knew it was a wise decision
    to hire you as our bodyguard.
[21:05] Arbiter
    So some bandits from the west
    made their way down here.
[21:10] Elineh
    It appears so.
[21:11] Elineh
    To think they had something
    like that in their possession...
[21:14] Elineh
    We mustn't underestimate them.
[21:19] Cayna
    That thing's disposable, but it can
    fire that same attack seven more times.
[21:24] Cayna
    You could probably sell it for a nice profit.
[21:27] Elineh
    We couldn't. I'd much rather
    just give that thing to Sir Arbiter
[21:31] Elineh
    than have it fall into the hands
    of someone potentially dangerous.
[21:34] Arbiter
    What? We have to hang on to this thing?
[21:37] Cayna
    Then how about I make you a brand-new
    one that can shoot about thirty shots?
[21:41] Cayna
    They're super convenient.
[21:42] Arbiter
    Don't even think about it!
[21:44] Elineh
    Please don't make anything of the sort!
[21:46] Cayna
