SIGN    Princess of the Snow Sea
[02:32] Gramps B
    You've got to be kidding.
[02:33] Gramps A
    It's a girl!
[02:35] Gramps B
    Where'd you find her?!
[02:36] Grans B
    She isn't hurt, is she?
[02:38] Grans A
    What kind of clothing is she wearing?
[02:41] Grans A
    And isn't this kitchen knife a bit long?
[02:45] Gramps A
    Ah, well, this is good news, really.
[02:50] Grans A
    You're right.
[02:51] Grans B
    No doubt.
[02:53] Gramps B
    We should talk about this.
[02:54] Gramps A
    Yes, let's do that.
[02:56] Grans B
    Kaina, keep an eye on her.
[02:59] Grans B
    We're going to go talk to the Signkeeper.
[03:02] Kaina
    What? Hey, wait, don't...
[03:25] Kaina
    So soft!
[03:35] Ririha
    Jarge!
[03:46] Ririha
    Who are you?
[03:47] Kaina
    Huh?
[03:49] Ririha
    Who are you?
[03:51] Kaina
    Oh, I-I'm Kaina.
[04:02] Ririha
    What happened to me?
[04:04] Kaina
    Huh? Oh...
[04:06] Kaina
    You were about to float away, but I managed
     to pull you out of the basket...
[04:11] Ririha
    Basket? The floater...
[04:16] Ririha
    Is this...?
[04:17] Kaina
    A v-village on the Canopy.
[04:20] Ririha
    Canopy? That means I've...
[04:26] Kaina
    Oh, the grans took your clothes to—
[04:34] Grans B
    You're awake.
[04:44] Ririha
    The... sage?
[04:46] Signkeeper
    Huh?
[04:47] Ririha
    I am Ririha, the Princess of Atland.
[04:50] Gramps B
    Wow, a princess!
[04:52] Ririha
    In search of the sage,
    I came to the Canopy—
[04:55] Grans A
    Princess, this man is the Signkeeper.
[04:58] Ririha
    Huh? But isn't this...?
[05:11] Ririha
    I'm so high up!
[05:23] Ririha
    I'm not dreaming...
[05:25] Ririha
    There really is a place above the Canopy!
[05:30] Kaina
    Um...
[05:33] Kaina
    Should you be moving around like this?
[05:37] Ririha
    Please take me to the sage!
[05:44] Grans B
    Here.
[05:46] Grans B
    It's leaf beetle pupa soup.
    It'll boost your energy.
[05:51] Ririha
    Thank you.
[05:53] Grans A
    The Signkeeper over here collects
    these ancient slabs called billboards,
[05:59] Grans A
    and mumbles some kind of spell.
     He's an odd old man.
[06:03] Signkeeper
    Don't be rude. I'm just reading the words.
[06:07] Grans B
    Ririha, was it?
[06:11] Grans B
    Could you tell us your story?
[06:16] Ririha
    My home, Atland, is a small country
    at the foot of a spire tree.
[06:21] Villagers
    At the foot?!
[06:22] Signkeeper
    Does that mean you're from the Snow Sea?
[06:29] Ririha
    Um...
[06:31] Ririha
    Yes...
[06:33] Gramps B
    Unbelievable. People live in the Snow Sea?
[06:37] Kaina
    See? I told you there were
    people down in the Snow Sea!
[06:41] Grans A
    How many are there?
[06:43] Ririha
    About a thousand...
[06:45] Grans A
    What?
[06:46] Gramps A
    That many?!
[06:46] Gramps B
    Wow...
[06:48] Ririha
    What about here? How many
    people live up here?
[06:53] Grans B
    The only villagers left on the Canopy are us.
[06:59] Ririha
    What?
[07:00] Signkeeper
    There used to be other villages
    like this all over the Canopy.
[07:07] Signkeeper
    But the water dried up,
    and this became the last village.
[07:14] Ririha
    I see. Which means the sage isn't here.
[07:20] Kaina
    "Which means"? What?
[07:22] Signkeeper
    Why are you looking for this
    sage that you speak of?
[07:31] Ririha
    Our world, the Snow Sea, is also
    on the verge of extinction.
[07:36] Villagers
    What?
[07:38] Ririha
    Since the surface is
    engulfed by the Snow Sea,
[07:40] Ririha
    only a limited area around the foot
    of spire trees is habitable.
[07:45] Ririha
    We rely on this limited land.
[07:49] Ririha
    We make our lives there,
    protecting our precious water.
[07:53] Ririha
    But Valghia, a country with
    a powerful fleet of ships,
[07:58] Ririha
    started stealing water from
    its neighbors, one after another.
[08:02] Ririha
    Countries collapsed after
    their water was stolen.
[08:05] Ririha
    Any survivors became slaves.
[08:09] Ririha
    Valghia has also approached our land.
[08:14] Gramps B
    So there's a war going on in the Snow Sea...
[08:19] Ririha
    But regardless of who wins,
[08:22] Ririha
    we must resolve the water shortage,
    or the world will one day end regardless.
[08:28] Ririha
    I wanted to do something about it.
[08:31] Signkeeper
    Is there something you can do?
[08:34] Ririha
    When I was a child, my mother
    told me stories about "the sage."
[08:40] Ririha
    This sage had magical powers, and was able
    to create an endless supply of water.
[08:44] Gramps A
    That's amazing.
[08:46] Grans A
    So you came here looking for that sage.
[08:49] Grans A
    But why did you think he'd be on the Canopy?
[08:55] Ririha
    Well...
[08:58] Grans B
    Oh, don't push yourself too hard.
[09:02] Grans B
    You risked your life to get here.
[09:06] Grans B
    We're sorry for pushing you.
[09:09] Ririha
    Not at all...
[09:11] Grans A
    Just focus on resting for now.
[09:13] Signkeeper
    It's a small village,
    but make yourself at home.
[09:17] Gramps B
    Yes, yes.
[09:19] Gramps A
    You can stay as long as you'd like.
[09:20] Ririha
    No, now that I know the sage isn't here,
    I must return to Atland immediately.
[09:27] Ririha
    Our negotiation deadline is approaching.
[09:30] Grans A
    Huh?
[09:30] Gramps A
    Just when we thought we found a good girl.
[09:34] Kaina
    Huh?
[09:34] Ririha
    I'm sorry, but I'm running out of time.
[09:38] Gramps B
    We get that your situation is serious,
    but how do you plan to get down?
[09:43] Ririha
    Huh?
[09:44] Gramps B
    We don't have a way to
    get down to the Snow Sea.
[09:48] Ririha
    What?
[09:51] Ririha
    Th-That can't be! What am I to do, then?!
[10:03] Ririha
    Father, Yaona, everyone...
[10:08] Ririha
    If only I could ride the floaters again.
[10:13] Kaina
    I wish I could help her.
[10:35] Ririha
    That's right, I'm on the Canopy...
[10:40] Ririha
    Yes?
[10:43] Grans A
    Are you up?
[10:44] Ririha
    G-Good morning!
[10:47] Grans A
    Actually, it's past noon.
[10:52] Grans B
    Did you sleep well?
[10:55] Grans A
    Ririha, could you stand up for a minute?
[10:58] Ririha
    Huh?
[11:04] Ririha
    Um...?
[11:05] Grans B
    Don't worry, we're just
    making clothes for you.
[11:10] Ririha
    Clothes?
[11:10] Grans A
    All right, straighten your back.
[11:13] Grans B
    We were going to make some
    when a young lady came along.
[11:19] Grans B
    We hope you'll wear them.
[11:21] Ririha
    Th-Thank you.
[11:23] Grans A
    Excuse me.
[11:25] Grans A
    Let's see...
[11:26] Grans B
    I'm sure you'll look great.
[11:30] Grans A
    We washed the clothes you had on.
[11:34] Grans A
    Oh, Kaina. What are you doing there?
[11:38] Kaina
    Oh, uh, nothing?
[11:41] Grans B
    You came at a good time. Could you
    give Ririha a tour of the village?
[11:46] Kaina
    What?
[11:47] Kaina
    Oh, okay.
[11:52] Ririha
    I didn't know the branches were hollow...
[11:59] Kaina
    Aren't there bugs in the Snow Sea, too?
[12:02] Ririha
    Well, we don't normally eat them.
[12:04] Kaina
    They're really good.
[12:06] Kaina
    Oh, you had them yesterday.
[12:08] Ririha
    Huh?
[12:09] Kaina
    The leaf beetle pupa soup.
[12:11] Ririha
    Um...
[12:14] Ririha
    What?!
[12:16] Kaina
    We stick a tube in the water vein
    to collect water, like this.
[12:20] Ririha
    It's very similar to how we do it in Atland.
[12:23] Kaina
    Yeah?
[12:25] Kaina
    But recently, the water
    output's been dropping.
[12:28] Ririha
    Here, too? I guess it's the same everywhere.
[12:33] Kaina
    Since it stopped snowing,
    I'll show you the outside.
[12:37] Ririha
    Snow...
[12:39] Ririha
    It's falling from all the way up here...
[12:43] Ririha
    What's that?
[12:44] Kaina
    He's collecting glow shells.
[12:45] Ririha
    What? Is it safe?
[12:48] Kaina
    It's easy once you get the hang of it.
[12:51] Ririha
    I wonder if we could get down
    to the Snow Sea like that?
[12:55] Kaina
    We wouldn't be able to.
[12:57] Kaina
    We don't have a rope long
    enough to reach the Snow Sea.
[13:00] Kaina
    That's as far as we can go.
[13:04] Kaina
    Giant tree flies have laid eggs
    around there, so it's dangerous.
[13:13] Kaina
    Okay, I'll show you how to
    collect glow shells next.
[13:17] Kaina
    I'll go get the tools, so wait here.
[13:24] Gramps B
    I never imagined someone
    would visit our village.
[13:27] Gramps A
    And a young lady, at that.
[13:30] Grans A
    I'm so happy. The village will be so lively.
[13:33] Gramps A/B
    Yes, yes.
[13:34] Gramps A
    And eventually...
[13:36] Gramps A/B
    Yes, yes.
[13:38] Grans A
    I hope that's what'll happen.
[13:43] Gramps B
    What's up, Signkeeper?
[13:45] Signkeeper
    I need to talk to you all.
[14:12] Ririha
    No, don't go!
[14:22] Ririha
    Ow!
[14:26] Ririha
    Huh?
[14:28] Ririha
    What's this?
[15:15] Kaina
    Ririha!
[15:18] Kaina
    Wait there!
[15:23] Kaina
    Ririha!
[15:27] Kaina
    Are you okay? Are you hurt?
[15:29] Ririha
    I'm sorry!
[15:30] Ririha
    I saw a floater approaching, so I...
[15:37] Kaina
    It's not over yet.
[15:38] Ririha
    Huh?
[15:38] Kaina
    It's even more mad because I've hurt it.
[15:41] Ririha
    What?!
[15:42] Kaina
    We need to get out of here, now.
[15:43] Ririha
    R-Right...
[15:51] Kaina
    I think now's our chance.
[15:56] Kaina
    Let's go!
[15:57] Kaina
    Ah...
[15:58] Ririha
    Huh?
[16:02] Kaina
    Shoot!
[16:16] Kaina
    We would've been dead if we hadn't stopped.
[16:20] Kaina
    Let's go.
[16:24] Grans A
    What were you thinking?!
    Going all the way down there...
[16:28] Ririha
    I'm sorry.
[16:31] Grans A
    I'm so glad you're all right.
[16:34] Ririha
    Ma'am...
[16:37] Signkeeper
    Kaina, Ririha, we need to talk to you both.
[16:44] Signkeeper
    Ririha. You want to return to the
    Snow Sea no matter what, right?
[16:52] Ririha
    Yes.
[16:53] Signkeeper
    I see. Then would you like to try,
     even if it's dangerous?
[16:59] Ririha
    Huh? Is there a way?
[17:02] Kaina
    Signkeeper?
[17:03] Signkeeper
    You'll use these.
[17:06] Kaina
    Are these... bug links?
[17:10] Kaina
    No...
[17:13] Kaina
    It's a lot harder...
[17:15] Signkeeper
    I don't know what material it's
    made of, but it's exceptionally sturdy.
[17:20] Kaina
    But we don't have a rope
    that'll reach the Snow Sea.
[17:24] Gramps A
    Right, so you'll have to collect
    the rope and re-use it.
[17:30] Gramps A
    You know how to do that, right?
[17:31] Kaina
    Uh, yeah, but then...
[17:35] Signkeeper
    Yes, there's no coming
    back up once you go down.
[17:45] Kaina
    But... how many bug pegs will
    it take to hook the rope?
[17:50] Kaina
    We can't collect those.
[17:52] Signkeeper
    You won't use bug pegs.
    You'll use this instead.
[17:56] Signkeeper
    It's called a bark cutter.
[17:59] Kaina
    Bark cutter?
[18:00] Signkeeper
    It's a very important carpenter's tool,
    passed down from generation to generation.
[18:04] Signkeeper
    Use it to carve out the bark
    and create a hook for the rope.
[18:08] Kaina
    But Ririha can't do something like that.
[18:12] Signkeeper
    You'll go with her, Kaina.
[18:15] Kaina
    What?
[18:15] Signkeeper
    You're the only one that can lead the way.
[18:20] Kaina
    I'm going with her?
[18:23] Signkeeper
    Make sure she gets home safe and sound.
[18:27] Signkeeper
    It was a blessing to learn that
    people live in the Snow Sea.
[18:32] Signkeeper
    Once we died, you would've
    been all alone up here.
[18:40] Kaina
    Everyone, you...
[18:47] Ririha
    Yes?
[18:49] Grans B
    Morning.
[18:51] Ririha
    Good morning.
[18:52] Grans A
    Here you go, your wedding dress.
[18:56] Ririha
    What? Wed...?
[18:59] Grans A
    I'm just kidding. It's your pressure suit.
[19:02] Ririha
    Oh.
[19:04] Grans B
    We were hoping you'd stay
    in this village forever.
[19:10] Grans B
    But you have somewhere else you have to be.
[19:15] Ririha
    Ma'am...
[19:18] Grans B
    You have such a clear,
    straightforward look in your eyes.
[19:23] Grans B
    Those are the eyes of a
    woman who knows what to do.
SIGN    Caution: Large Insects Region
[19:36] Kaina
    Okay!
[19:39] Kaina
    Oh yeah, here.
[19:41] Ririha
    Huh?
[19:42] Ririha
    This is Jarge's...
[19:44] Kaina
    It looked important, so I brought it with me.
[19:51] Ririha
    Thank you.
[19:53] Gramps A
    Here, we braided this rope for you.
[19:59] Kaina
    Thanks, everyone.
[20:00] Signkeeper
    By the way, Kaina...
[20:02] Kaina
    Yeah?
[20:03] Signkeeper
    When you use the bark cutter, have the
    knob turned to just the first click.
[20:08] Signkeeper
    If you turn it further than that,
    you won't be able to use it for a while.
[20:13] Kaina
    Oh... Got it.
[20:21] Ririha
    I appreciate your hospitality.
    Thank you for everything.
[20:28] Kaina
    I'm going, everyone!
[20:29] Grans A
    Don't eat bugs you've never seen before!
[20:32] Gramps A
    When you see the king,
    make sure you say hello!
[20:35] Kaina
    I know.
[20:36] Grans B
    Don't sleep with your stomach bare!
[20:41] Kaina
    I'm not a little kid anymore!
[20:44] Signkeeper
    When you get to the Snow Sea,
    look for other written words!
[20:49] Signkeeper
    If you find some, read them out loud!
[21:02] Kaina
    Let's go, Ririha.
[21:03] Ririha
    Okay.
