SIGN    Sabarro Valley, center
[00:08] Sariphi
    Are you all right, Cy?
[00:10] Cy
    I-I'm fi—
[00:16] Fenrir
    I hoped you would provide
    more entertainment.
[00:20] Sariphi
    Lante, are you hurt?!
[00:23] Fenrir
    What will you do now?
[00:26] Fenrir
    Count on your ring to save you?
    Its power only works once.
[00:33] Sariphi
    What about my ring?
[00:34] Fenrir
    He imbued it with a portion of his magic.
[00:40] Sariphi
    Then that was...
[00:43] Sariphi
    what protected me that time.
[00:47] Sariphi
    I wasn't imagining things.
[00:50] Sariphi
    No wonder I felt like His Majesty
    was always with me.
[00:53] Fenrir
    You have nothing left to save you.
[00:57] Fenrir
    Now, it is time to tremble in fear.
[01:00] Fenrir
    And if you prostrate yourself before me,
[01:03] Fenrir
    I will make you my queen.
[01:07] Sariphi
    I—
[01:08] Lanteveldt
    Not on my watch!
[01:11] Sariphi
    Lante?!
[01:13] Lanteveldt
    Even a hyena will bite a wolf if you
    back him into a corner, moron.
[01:20] Fenrir
    Filthy hyena brat!
[01:47] Sariphi
    Your Majesty!
SIGN    Rescue and a Fated Duel
[03:27] Fenrir
    There you are at last.
[03:30] Fenrir
    I've never waited for anyone—
    or anything—as much as I have for this!
[03:35] Fenrir
    For this chance to face you!
[03:40] Clops
    C-C-Cy!
[03:42] Cy
    C-C-Clops!
[03:47] Sariphi
    His Majesty is really here...
[03:51] Sariphi
    Right beside me.
[03:57] Leonhart
    It truly is you, then.
[03:59] Leonhart
    The last heir to the former kingdom of wolves...
[04:04] Leonhart
    Fenrir, the 12th prince.
[04:06] Leonhart
    And missing an ear.
[04:08] Leonhart
    I see that you truly were
    driven from your land.
[04:13] Fenrir
    I'm honored that you know so much about me.
[04:17] Fenrir
    King of Ozmargo, ever since you
    became known by that title,
[04:22] Fenrir
    I've lived to fight you again
    and reclaim my stolen pride.
[04:28] Leonhart
    Will your pride return if you defeat me?
[04:33] Leonhart
    And what then?
[04:36] Leonhart
    What will you do when you take the throne?
[04:39] Fenrir
    What? That woman asked the same question.
[04:45] Fenrir
    I'll do just one thing: purge this realm.
[04:50] Fenrir
    All beasts will form up to kill and
    slaughter each other once more!
[04:56] Fenrir
    And the last to survive will reign supreme!
[05:00] Fenrir
    I'll create a world where only might
    matters, for beast and human alike!
[05:06] Clops
    H-He's crazy!
[05:09] Clops
    Who'd want to bring those ancient wars back?!
[05:13] Lanteveldt
    But it makes sense, doesn't it?
[05:16] Lanteveldt
    That chaos led to this kingdom, ruled by
    the leader of the last species standing.
[05:23] Lanteveldt
    The strong make the rules,
    and the weak follow them.
[05:28] Lanteveldt
    That's as true now as it was then.
[05:32] Sariphi
    Yes. And that's why His Majesty...
[05:36] Fenrir
    Now, if you want to keep
    your throne, fight me.
[05:41] Fenrir
    Or are you still spouting that
    nonsense about hating combat?
[05:47] Leonhart
    No. You've just given me a fresh reminder
[05:51] Leonhart
    of why I must never cede my throne to you.
[05:55] Leonhart
    As a king, and as a man,
[06:00] Leonhart
    I have things I must protect from you!
SIGN    Sabarro Valley, northeast
[06:07] Anubis
    Hurry, Jor!
[06:08] Anubis
    That potent burst of magic
    can mean nothing good.
[06:12] Anubis
    Fenrir is most likely...
[06:16] Jormungand
    You!
[06:17] Gleipnir
    The battle has already begun.
[06:20] Gleipnir
    We are no longer needed.
[06:22] Anubis
    What do you mean?!
[06:24] Gleipnir
    My duty now is to ensure
    that no one interferes.
[06:31] Gleipnir
    That was my promise to Fenrir.
[06:33] Gleipnir
    If you intend to intervene, I'll kill you.
[06:37] Gleipnir
    Even if I can't do it honorably.
[06:40] Jormungand
    Very well.
[06:42] Jormungand
    We promise not to meddle
    in our king's battle, as well.
[06:45] Anubis
    Jor!
[06:46] Jormungand
    It makes no difference, Abi.
[06:50] Jormungand
    The lord of this realm is fighting
    its self-proclaimed new ruler.
[06:56] Jormungand
    We have no place in their duel.
[07:09] Sariphi
    His Majesty is facing forward.
[07:15] Fenrir
    What's wrong?! Is that all you've got?!
[07:18] Sariphi
    He's wearing the face of a king
    who has so much on his shoulders
[07:24] Sariphi
    and staring straight ahead.
[07:26] Sariphi
    All I can do is believe in him.
[07:30] Sariphi
    His Majesty...
[07:32] Sariphi
    Sire!
[07:34] Sariphi
    ...will never lose!
[07:45] Fenrir
    Is this it?
[07:47] Fenrir
    That day, your overwhelming magic
    power stole everything from me.
[07:53] Fenrir
    To me, your might was pure despair.
[07:57] Fenrir
    Is this all
[07:59] Fenrir
    a king can do?!
[08:02] Lanteveldt
    Watch out!
[08:18] Lanteveldt
    You've gotta be kidding me.
[08:22] Clops
    It can't be. His Majesty is...
[08:29] Fenrir
    You exhausted your magic so quickly.
[08:33] Fenrir
    I knew it. You haven't recovered the
    power you put into the woman's ring.
[08:39] Fenrir
    Were you so desperate to
    reach her as soon as possible,
[08:43] Fenrir
    even knowing that you weren't
    at your full strength?
[08:50] Fenrir
    Good. That woman you're head
    over heels for will soon be mine.
[08:58] Fenrir
    But I have something to take care of first.
[09:01] Fenrir
    Using all my mystic power!
[09:08] Cy
    S-Sire!
[09:14] Jormungand
    There!
[09:24] Lanteveldt
    He missed?
[09:30] Leonhart
    What are you playing at?
[09:33] Fenrir
    Now we're on even footing.
[09:36] Fenrir
    Trampling a weaker opponent to reach the top
[09:40] Fenrir
    would only tarnish my royal dignity.
[09:44] Fenrir
    From now on,
[09:48] Fenrir
    we fight like primal beasts!
[09:54] Amit
    Refugees are flooding into the royal capital.
[09:58] Amit
    Their numbers show how
    uneasy the people feel.
[10:03] Official A
    Track His Majesty's holy beast at once!
    It will lead us to the enemy leader!
[10:09] Official B
    The acting queen is with them!
[10:12] Amit
    Does that mean His Majesty
    will fight after all?
[10:18] Amit
    All that I can do is pray,
[10:22] Amit
    but please be safe, Lady Sariphi,
    Your Majesty, and everyone else.
[10:29] Amit
    And especially...
[10:35] Anubis
    His Majesty is fighting tooth and claw?
[10:37] Gleipnir
    Fenrir...
[11:13] Jormungand
    A deep wound. The king has him.
[11:29] Fenrir
    I'm not finished yet.
[11:32] Leonhart
    This man...
[11:34] Leonhart
    This is obsession—the pride of
    a man who once lost everything.
[11:40] Leonhart
    The obsession of one who strives
    to reclaim his own existence.
[11:45] Leonhart
    Do I have anything to compare to it?
[11:52] Leonhart
    I mustn't let my mind wander.
    This is no time for weakness.
[11:57] Leonhart
    Weakness? Is that not my true essence?
[12:02] Leonhart
    I curse my own existence and
    fear battle due to my own frailty.
[12:07] Leonhart
    Merely clinging to the throne I was
    given is the extent of my power.
[12:11] Leonhart
    So, can... Can I...
[12:16] Leonhart
    possibly triumph over this man?
[12:35] Fenrir
    I am king!
[12:56] Leonhart
    Is it over?
[13:00] Leonhart
    I have... no strength left.
[13:04] Leonhart
    I can no longer... hear anything.
[13:08] Leonhart
    What?
[13:14] Leonhart
    "Le"?
[13:16] Leonhart
    "On"?
[13:18] Sariphi
    Leonhart.
[13:21] Leonhart
    Of course.
[13:25] Leonhart
    Of course. I have that name.
[13:30] (Flashback) Sariphi
    It means "brave-hearted."
[13:33] Leonhart
    That pride you gave to me is the one thing
[13:38] Leonhart
    that no one can take from me!
[13:45] Fenrir
    He... How can he still stand?!
[13:48] Fenrir
    How—
[13:51] Fenrir
    That woman.
[13:54] Fenrir
    She brought this out in him.
[13:59] Fenrir
    I...
[14:02] Gleipnir
    Fenrir is afraid, just like he was back then.
[14:08] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    My ear... My ear is...
[14:11] (Flashback) Young Gleipnir
    Y-Your Highness...
[14:13] (Flashback) Young Gleipnir
    I... I brought Your Highness water.
[14:18] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    Stop it!
[14:19] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    Don't call me that!
[14:21] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    I'm not royalty anymore.
[14:23] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    I lost my ear and everything else.
[14:25] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    I'm a stray dog!
[14:27] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    You're not my servant anymore! Go away!
[14:31] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    Nir!
[14:35] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    What are you...
[14:37] (Flashback) Young Gleipnir
    If... If you want an ear, I'll give you mine.
[14:40] (Flashback) Young Gleipnir
    I'll do whatever you say.
[14:43] (Flashback) Young Gleipnir
    S-So please, keep me with you!
[14:49] Gleipnir
    Fenrir...
[14:51] Gleipnir
    I was just a stray dog until you gave
    me a name and a place to belong.
[14:57] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    Nir.
[14:58] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    I swear I'll be king of this country someday.
[15:01] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    Until then, I'm just plain Fenrir.
    Act accordingly.
[15:06] (Flashback) Young Gleipnir
    This country? You mean the kingdom of wolves?
[15:10] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    No, I mean the whole beast realm.
[15:13] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    One day, he'll become king.
    Then I'll beat him and take over.
[15:18] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    So don't go anywhere. Stay by my side.
[15:22] Gleipnir
    One day,
[15:24] Gleipnir
    you will be king.
[15:26] Gleipnir
    Fenrir! Take it back! Reclaim your pride!
[15:37] Fenrir
    I...
[15:38] Leonhart
    I...
[15:40] Fenrir; Leonhart
    ...cannot lose!
[15:56] Anubis
    This is a complete...
[16:02] Lanteveldt
    Yes!
[16:03] Cy
    Hooray!
[16:04] Clops
    His Majesty won!
[16:07] Clops
    He did it, Sari!
[16:08] Cy
    Sari?
[16:14] Leonhart
    Forgive me, Sariphi. Did I worry you?
[16:18] Sariphi
    No.
[16:19] Sariphi
    I believed in you, Leo.
[16:25] Sariphi
    Leo?
[16:26] Sariphi
    Leo, are you all right?!
[16:27] Anubis
    Sire! In front of you!
[16:30] Anubis
    He still lives! Quickly, finish him!
[16:39] Sariphi
    Sire...
[16:40] Leonhart
    Have no fear, Sariphi.
[16:43] Leonhart
    For the future of Ozmargo and its people,
[16:50] Leonhart
    I must not show this man
    a shred of compassion.
[16:55] Leonhart
    The king must condemn him.
[16:58] Leonhart
    I must, by my own hand.
[17:01] Gleipnir**
    That won't be necessary.
[17:11] Anubis
    Wh-Why would that man strike Fenrir?!
[17:14] Gleipnir
    Now my job is done,
    and so is my reason to live.
[17:19] Gleipnir
    It's all...
[17:22] Leonhart
    Wait!
[17:23] Leonhart
    Do you...
[17:32] Anubis
    I refuse to let him escape!
[17:34] Anubis
    We must give chase!
[17:36] Sariphi
    Sire!
[17:39] Sariphi
    Sire!
[17:41] Sariphi
    We got on Gwiber and rode
    straight back to the capital.
[17:46] Anubis
    Gather every priest in the palace!
    Have them tend to His Majesty!
[17:51] Anubis
    Make haste!
[17:53] Amit
    Lady Sariphi...
[18:00] Sariphi
    Nir, who took Fenrir and vanished,
[18:04] Sariphi
    was made a wanted man throughout Ozmargo.
[18:08] Sariphi
    A few days later, the injured Lante was...
[18:14] Jormungand
    I see that these events
    have changed your outlook.
[18:19] Lanteveldt
    Not really.
[18:20] Lanteveldt
    But Sariphi told me something.
[18:24] Lanteveldt
    Guards aren't there to die
    for whoever they serve.
[18:27] Lanteveldt
    We're there to watch over them
    until their job is done.
[18:33] Lanteveldt
    So I'm gonna...
[18:35] Jormungand
    In that case,
[18:38] Jormungand
    you must recover from those
    wounds as soon as possible
[18:41] Jormungand
    so that you can protect the
    queen with all your might.
[18:45] Jormungand
    I will be happy to face you then,
    Captain Lanteveldt of the Queen's Guard.
[18:55] Lanteveldt
    Right!
[18:59] Lanteveldt
    Thank you for sparring with me,
    Captain Jormungand of the Royal Guard.
[19:05] Sariphi
    And as for His Majesty...
[19:14] Sariphi
    Sire.
[19:18] Sariphi
    Oh, did I wake you?
[19:21] Leonhart
    No.
[19:23] Sariphi
    So, Mr. Chancellor said that
    we need to stay on the alert,
[19:27] Sariphi
    since we don't know when Nir
    will try to take revenge on you.
[19:33] Leonhart
    I doubt that I will ever see him again.
[19:38] Sariphi
    Sire, what did you and he
    talk about at the end?
[19:42] Leonhart
    I asked him if he hated me
    for striking down his lord.
[19:47] Leonhart
    And he said...
[19:49] (Flashback) Gleipnir
    This fight was Fenrir's long-cherished
    dream, and also his curse.
[19:55] (Flashback) Gleipnir
    At last, Fenrir is free.
[19:59] (Flashback) Gleipnir
    I thank you for that.
[20:03] Gleipnir
    The winds have turned cold,
    haven't they, Fenrir?
[20:08] Gleipnir
    I know why you entrusted me
    with that final duty.
[20:14] (Flashback) Fenrir
    Nir, I'll only say this once.
[20:17] (Flashback) Fenrir
    If he defeats me, and he's
    about to take my life,
[20:22] (Flashback) Fenrir
    I want you to kill me first.
[20:25] (Flashback) Gleipnir
    Such talk isn't like you.
[20:29] (Flashback) Fenrir
    It isn't. And that's why I'll never say it again.
[20:33] Gleipnir
    You were robbed of your ear and your pride.
[20:38] Gleipnir
    You lost your title, family, and homeland.
    Only your own life was left to you.
[20:44] Gleipnir
    You wanted to give me that at the very end.
[20:48] Gleipnir
    From the moment we met until now,
    you've been my reason for living.
[20:53] Gleipnir
    Fenrir, you are my pride.
[20:58] Gleipnir
    And...
[20:59] Young Fenrir
    Nir!
[21:01] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    Nir! Where did you go?!
[21:04] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    I told you to come right away when I call.
[21:07] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    That means you need to stay by my side,
    always close enough to hear me.
[21:13] (Flashback) Young Fenrir
    Come on! Hurry up!
[21:16] Young Fenrir
    Nir!
[21:18] Gleipnir
    And...
[21:20] Gleipnir
    you are the only king I recognize,
    prouder than any other.
[22:59] Set
    Now that the king has repelled the rebels,
[23:02] Set
    the people support him even
    more staunchly than before.
[23:06] Set
    Yes, nothing ever goes
    quite as one hopes it will.
[23:10] Set
    So to gain my objective,
    I must find it myself after all.
[23:15] Set
    I know that the thing I seek exists
[23:20] Set
    somewhere in this forbidden archive.
[23:25] Sariphi
    Are your wounds better now, sire?
[23:28] Leonhart
    Yes, you need fear no longer.
[23:30] Sariphi
    Thank goodness!
[23:31] Leonhart
    Wait, Sariphi. I wish to tell you something.
[23:35] Leonhart
    Something of grave importance
    to this kingdom's future.
