[00:16] Elen
    Marseirre... It's been a while.
[00:19] Elen
    This isn't how I imagined
    our next visit would be.
[00:24] Farma
    No...
[00:25] Elen
    The threat that raged through Nederland's
    colony might be hiding within those ships.
[00:36] Farma
    Let's go, Elen.
[00:37] Farma
    Let's finish inspecting all the
    ships before the fair begins.
[00:43] Farma
    The thing we must absolutely prevent
[00:47] Farma
    is Yersinia pestis making landfall!

SIGN    The Black Death
[02:26] Student 1 (male)
    Master! Lord Farma!
    We've been awaiting your arrival!
[02:29] Elen
    Good work, all of you.
[02:32] Elen
    How is progress?
[02:33] Elen
    You have all ships from foreign
    nations anchored at sea, right?
[02:37] Student 1 (male)
    Yes, Master. Just as instructed.
[02:40] Student 2 (female)
    Here are the cargo manifests
    and crew health check results
[02:43] Student 2 (female)
    for ships that arrived as of yesterday.
[02:47] Farma
    I'll check them.
[02:51] Student 1 (male)
    Ships that passed inspection
    have had their cargoes purified
[02:55] Student 1 (male)
    with wind Divine Arts before unloading.
[02:58] Student 2 (female)
    In cases of suspected infection
    despite negative results,
[03:02] Student 2 (female)
    quarantine and cabin isolation continue.
[03:06] Farma
    Got it. Thank you very much.
[03:09] Farma
    Elen.
[03:11] Farma
    Time for us to get started as well.
[03:27] Captain A
    How long are ya gonna make us wait?
[03:29] Captain A
    Let us unload already!
[03:31] Farma
    I am very sorry, but this is
    to prevent a serious epidemic.
[03:36] Farma
    Who is your ship's physician?
[03:39] Ship Physician
    That would be me.
[03:40] Ship Physician
    This is my report on the required matters.
[03:44] Farma
    Thank you very much.
[03:46] Farma
    To be safe, might I question
    you in detail on each item?
[03:51] Captain A
    There were never inspections
    like this before.
[03:58] Farma
    At present, there appear to be no issues.
[04:02] Farma
    Now then, allow me to begin my inspection.
[04:29] Farma
    The crew and cargo were without issue.
[04:33] Captain A
    Good grief. Can we finally dock now?
[04:38] Farma
    Please present these documents once on land.
[04:41] Farma
    And also,
[04:43] Farma
    here are some prescriptions.
[04:45] Ship Physician
    Oh? Didn't you say the
    inspection showed no issues?
[04:50] Farma
    Several crewmen were exhibiting
    early symptoms of scurvy.
[04:53] Farma
    Vitamins will be provided at the
    quarantine stations in Marseirre port.
[04:57] Ship Physician
    My word...
[05:00] Farma
    Thank you for your cooperation.
[05:10] Elen
    Thank goodness there were no infections.
[05:13] Elen
    But there's still a long way to go.
[05:15] Farma
    We just have to be persistent.
[05:17] Farma
    Onto the next one.
[05:21] Elen
    What are you doing?! That's dangerous!
[05:23] Captain B
    How long do we gotta wait? Let us unload!
[05:28] Captain B
    I need to finish today.
    I have a carriage waiting!
[05:32] Captain B
    My costs are rising here!
[05:34] Captain C
    We're first! Wait your turn!
[05:36] Captain B
    Our cargo is perishable!
    If we wait any longer, it'll rot!
[05:42] Captain C
    We've been waiting two whole days!
[05:45] Captain C
    And why do we have to take
    orders from a kid, anyway?
[05:48] Captain B
    Yeah! It's ridiculous! I won't stand for it!
[05:52] Captain C
    If my cargo goes bad, is the
    Empire gonna pay compensation?
[06:01] Elen
    It looks like...
[06:02] Elen
    I'll have to shut their mouths for them!
[06:05] Farma
    Elen, hold your—
[06:07] Jean
    Fire!
[06:13] Elen
    Ah! What's going on?!
    I haven't done anything yet!
[06:17] Jean
    You fools!
[06:20] Jean
    If you mean to enter the Empire's port,
    you'll follow the Empire's rules!
[06:25] Farma
    That's...
[06:26] Captain B
    Th-They're flying the Empire's banner
[06:29] Captain B
    and a fleet flag with a charter symbol!
[06:33] Captain C
    Could it be... Saint Fleuve's Scarlet Fleet?!
[06:37] Captain B
    Commodore Jean Alain Gabin of
    the Empire's East Inida Company?!
[06:42] Farma
    Mr. Jean?!
[06:43] Elen
    What?! The regular at our pharmacy?
[06:46] (Flashback) Jean
    Some candies, please.
[06:49] Jean
    All right, scallywags!
[06:52] Jean
    Clean out your ears and listen up!
[06:55] Jean
    This boy is both a Royal Pharmaceutist
    and a son of Marseirre's governor,
[07:00] Jean
    and he has come to conduct
    these inspections personally!
[07:04] Jean
    I'm happy to toss anybody who has a problem
    into the sea, so if you do, come forward!
[07:12] Captains B and C
    W-We're very sorry!
[07:22] Farma
    Mr. Jean!
[07:23] Elen
    Thank you so much!
[07:26] Jean
    Don't mention it!
[07:28] Jean
    When it comes to matters at sea,
    I can't help but get involved.
[07:32] Jean
    More importantly, Mr. Proprietor.
    How long is your shop going to be closed?
[07:37] Jean
    I miss going there.
[07:39] Farma
    Mr. Jean...
[07:42] First Mate
    His Excellency the Commodore has taken a
    great liking to your shop's "Sailor's Candy."
[07:47] Chief Navigator
    And so have we!
[07:51] Jean
    Thanks to those, we have fewer
    sailors coming down with scurvy.
[07:56] Jean
    I'm planning to make a bulk order next time
    for the boys on the other ships as well.
[08:02] Farma
    Great! We'll be looking forward
    to your visit after the fair ends!
[08:12] Farma
    I see. Thank you for your hard work.
[08:15] Elen
    You know, even now, it's hard to believe.
[08:19] Student 1 (male)
    You mean, what happened
    to Nederland's colony?
[08:22] Elen
    Yes. I had thought the Black Death
    was only in books and legends.
[08:31] Elen
    We're truly fortunate that we have Farma.
[08:35] Elen
    If we didn't, maybe our nation would've...
[08:38] Elen
    Just the thought of it is frightening.
[08:41] Farma
    Let's keep pushing forward
    so that doesn't happen!
[08:47] Students 1 and 2
    Yes, sir!
[08:48] Elen
    That's the right mindset. All right,
    let's get to today's regular report.
[08:53] Adam
    Master Farma!
[08:56] Farma
    Adam?
[08:58] Adam
    I have an urgent report!
[09:00] Adam
    Multiple people in the village of L'Estacque
    have died after developing high fevers!
[09:07] Elen
    L'Estacque, you say?
[09:09] Adam
    Yes. It's a small fishing village
    to the west of here.
[09:13] Adam
    It appears there was a vessel that felt
    the proper procedures at Marseirre
[09:17] Adam
    would take too long,
[09:19] Adam
    and they chose instead to enter
    illegally through that village.
[09:24] Elen
    They did what?! Where are those people now?
[09:28] Adam
    I don't know. They've already left.
[09:31] Farma
    What's the situation in the village?
[09:34] Adam
    At first they believed it to just be a fever,
[09:38] Adam
    but after the first death, it spread rapidly.
[09:47] Student 2 (female)
    Oh, no...
[09:48] Student 1 (male)
    You mean... the Black
    Death has made landfall?
[09:53] Farma
    I'll go at once!
[09:56] Elen
    Wh... Hold on, Farma!
[09:58] Elen
    Do you mean to go there alone?
[10:00] Elen
    To a village that may be
    infected with the Black Death?
[10:03] Farma
    There have already been deaths!
    We can't afford a moment's delay!
[10:10] Farma
    Sorry. Bring me my protective gear.
[10:18] Elen
    Wait, Farma!
[10:21] Elen
    You're the only one who can accurately
    identify the Black Death!
[10:24] Elen
    You're the only one who can do
    the inspections at this port!
[10:28] Elen
    So, please...
[10:30] Farma
    You can do the inspections, too.
[10:33] Farma
    Elen, you're fully capable.
[10:36] Elen
    Farma...
[10:37] Elen
    So please stay here and oversee the process.
[10:42] Farma
    The port has the facilities,
    supplies, and personnel it needs.
[10:46] Farma
    If you all work together,
    you'll be able to keep the port safe!
[11:04] Elen
    Farma!
[11:07] Farma
    See you, Master.
[11:10] Farma
    I know you'll take care of things.
[11:22] Elen
    Farma...
[11:36] Farma
    The source of the infection was
    probably rats hidden among the cargo.
[11:41] Farma
    But at this stage, it wouldn't
    be possible to identify them.
[11:46] Farma
    Where did their ship disappear to?
[11:49] Farma
    I need to purify the ship and save the crew,
    or it'll end up as a ghost ship—
[12:07] Farma
    Oh, no!
[12:16] Farma
    What?
[12:18] Farma
    This wand...
[12:20] (Flashback) Salomon
    According to the ancient texts, the Panac-
    rhabdos is said to hold numerous abilities.
[12:31] Farma
    Right now, I need to concentrate on reaching
    L'Estacque before anyone else dies!
[12:49] Villagers (background)
    Hurry up!
[12:50] Villagers (background)
    Quickly!
[12:51] Villagers (background)
    We have to go now!
[12:54] Villagers (background)
    Come on.
[12:54] Villagers (background)
    Come with us.
[12:56] Villagers (background)
    Let's go.
[12:57] Villager A
    Hey! Hurry it up!
[12:59] Villager B
    If we stay in this cursed village,
    we'll all be killed by the evil spirit!
[13:06] Villager C
    Huh? Who's that kid?
[13:18] Farma
    Everyone, please turn back!
[13:21] Farma
    You must not leave the village!
[13:23] Villager D
    Huh? What nonsense are you spoutin', kid?
[13:28] Villager B
    Outta the way! People are
    dyin' left and right!
[13:31] Villager A
    How could anyone stay here?
[13:34] Farma
    I promise I'll explain!
[13:37] Farma
    But first, please go back to the village!
[13:39] Villager B
    Move it! Our lives are on the line!
[13:44] Villagers (background)
    Yeah!
[13:46] Villagers (background)
    He's right!
[13:47] Villagers (background)
    We gotta go now!
[13:50] Villager C
    Who the hell are you, anyway?
[13:53] Villager C
    Why are you dressed so strangely?
[13:55] Villager D
    Wait. This kid appeared out of nowhere...
[14:00] Villager D
    Are you the evil spirit
    that cursed our village?!
[14:11] Farma
    Even if you flee now, you won't survive
    unless the evil is eliminated.
[14:16] Farma
    Go back!
[14:17] Villager A
    Don't be ridiculous!
[14:18] Villager B
    Nobody would go back there!
[14:21] Villagers (background)
    That's right!
[14:25] Farma
    Please...
[14:27] Farma
    return to the village!
[14:48] Farma
    The reason I enclosed the village in ice
    is to contain the illness.
[14:56] Farma
    I am a pharmaceutist from the capital!
[14:59] Farma
    I have come to save you all
[15:01] Farma
    from the Black Death!
[15:06] Villager A
    That's...
[15:08] Villager B
    A Royal Pharmaceutist...
[15:10] Farma
    I have brought medicine!
[15:12] Farma
    It eliminates the tiny, invisible creatures
    that cause the Black Death.
[15:21] Villager D
    S-So then none of us will die?
[15:26] Farma
    I cannot promise you that I can
    save everyone for certain.
[15:31] Farma
    Let us fight together to keep
    the deaths to a minimum!
[15:36] Farma
    You have every right to be scared.
[15:38] Farma
    But please stay and receive treatment.
[15:44] Farma
    If you don't,
[15:46] Farma
    I won't be able to save you.
[16:02] Farma
    Before I begin diagnosis and treatment,
    allow me to explain the process we'll use.
[16:11] Farma
    First, I'll divide the village
    into three broad sections.
[16:14] Farma
    One for severe symptoms,
SIGN    Severe Symptoms
[16:16] Farma
    one for the infected,
SIGN    Infected
[16:17] Farma
    and one for the uninfected.
SIGN    Uninfected
[16:19] Village Pharmaceutist
    I see. We'll segregate
    those who are infected.
[16:23] Village Official
    Segregate? You don't mean...
[16:26] Farma
    Don't worry.
[16:28] Farma
    It's for triage—
    prioritizing who to treat first.
[16:31] Farma
    It's only a measure to prevent
    the infection from spreading.
[16:34] Village Official
    O-Oh... I see.
[16:37] Farma
    That's all.
[16:38] Farma
    In order to protect the lives of
    everyone, I ask for your cooperation.
[16:57] Chief Navigator
    Commodore!
[16:58] Jean
    What is it?
[17:00] Chief Navigator
    I spotted a suspicious vessel
    at port side, ten o'clock.
[17:07] Chief Navigator
    It is far off of any normal course,
    and it isn't responding to our hails.
[17:13] Jean
    Th-That's...
[17:15] Chief Navigator
    Could it be the renegade ship
    we've been searching for?
[17:23] Jean
    Yes. Without a doubt.
[17:26] Jean
    A series of three signal flags,
    starting with a flag for medical care.
[17:32] Jean
    The message reads: "Requesting
    emergency medical aid."
[17:37] Jean
    And that single flag...
[17:41] Chief Navigator
    Contagion! That's not good.
[17:44] Jean
    Bring us a little closer.
[17:57] Crewman A
    Do you see anything?
[18:00] Crewman B
    Yeah, I see people on the deck!
[18:08] Chief Navigator
    What's wrong?
[18:09] Crewman B
    Th-They're dead!
[18:11] Crewman B
    The ship's deck is littered with corpses!
[18:18] Chief Navigator
    What?!
[18:22] Chief Navigator
    Commodore, should we send
    someone to search the ship?
[18:27] Jean
    No. We mustn't send anyone.
[18:29] Jean
    That would risk the disease
    spreading to our ship.
[18:33] Chief Navigator
    But then...
[18:36] Jean
    Judging from the situation,
    there should be no survivors left.
[18:41] Jean
    And if there were, we wouldn't
    be able to help them.
[18:48] Jean
    It's a pity, but our only option
    is to scuttle that ship
[18:53] Jean
    and send it, along with its cargo,
    into the depths of the ocean.
[18:58] Jean
    All hands, to your stations!
[19:01] Jean
    We're going to sink that ship!
[19:04] Jean
    Prepare to fire cannons!
[19:07] Crew
    Yes, sir!
[19:20] Jean
    That ship carries a disease more
    dangerous than any pirates.
[19:25] Jean
    We'll sink it completely so that no
    contaminated fragments drift ashore.
[19:31] Jean
    Aim true, and treat it like a funeral.
[19:36] Jean
    Ready!
[19:37] (Flashback) Farma
    These inspections aren't to rob merchants
    of their freedom or restrict them.
[19:43] (Flashback) Farma
    They're meant to save people's lives.
[19:46] (Flashback) Farma
    I want everyone to return
    to their homelands alive.
[19:51] (Flashback) Farma
    And I don't want them to become
    a source of infection once there.
[19:58] Jean
    You poor fools.
[20:00] Jean
    If you had just undergone the inspections,
    some of you could have survived.
[20:06] Jean
    By taking the Black Death lightly,
[20:09] Jean
    they lost their chance at treatment!
[20:24] Chief Navigator
    Fire!
[22:23] Village Official
    We can't thank you enough, Lord Farma.
[22:26] Village Pharmaceutist A
    The first round of medicine
    distribution is complete.
[22:30] Village Pharmaceutist B
    Everyone was overjoyed!
[22:32] Farma
    Thank you for all your hard work.
[22:35] Village Official
    That just leaves the final section.
[22:43] Farma
    I'll handle the rest of this alone.
[22:46] Village Pharmaceutist A
    We'll join you!
    As pharmaceutists of this vill—
[22:53] Farma
    Medical workers need to prioritize
    their own safety as well.
[22:57] Farma
    I have protective gear.
    Please stay here and let me handle it.
[23:23] Farma
    The seriously ill await in this hospital.
[23:28] Farma
    Here goes.
[23:30] Farma
    The critical part begins now.
