[00:09] Arc
    Hi there. It's me, Arc.
[00:11] Arc
    I'm finally here!
[00:13] Arc
    The elf settlement of Lalatoya!
[00:16] Ariane
    Open the gate!
[00:17] Ariane
    I am Ariane Glenys Maple,
[00:19] Ariane
    and I have returned from my mission
    of saving our kind from human captivity.
[00:23] Ariane
    I seek an audience with the elder!
[00:35] Arc
    This is a heaping helping of fantasy!
    A fantasy buffet!
[00:38] Arc
    A sacred temple erected
    in the name of the fantasy genre!
[00:40] Arc
    An elf village! And now... now...!
[00:46] Arc
    The elves live over there!
[00:48] Ariane
    I'm going to get permission from the elder.
[00:50] Ariane
    Wait here, Arc.
[02:25] Arc
    I gotta say, this place
    is as huge as it is old.
[02:30] Arc
    Well, elves are supposed to
    have centuries-long lifespans...
[02:34] Arc
    This settlement has probably
    been here since ages long past.
[02:40] Arc
    I'm gonna get ya!
[02:52] Arc
    One, two, three, four...
[03:08] Ariane
    Sorry about the delay. I got permission.
[03:11] Ariane
    Come on.
[03:18] Ariane
    All right, let's get going.
[03:41] Arc
    What's that massive tree?
[03:43] Ariane
    The elder lives there.
[03:55] Dillan
    We bid you welcome.
[03:56] Dillan
    I am Dillan Tahg Lalatoya,
    the elder of this village.
[04:01] Dillan
    I hear you've been
    a great help to my daughter.
[04:04] Glenys
    I am Glenys, his wife, and Aria's mother.
[04:08] Arc
    It's a pleasure to make your
    acquaintance, Sir Elder, milady.
[04:12] Arc
    My name is Arc and I am
    a traveling mercenary who...
[04:18] Arc
    You two are Lady Ariane's
    mother and father?!
[04:20] Glenys
    I turned 170 this year.
[04:23] Glenys
    And that number isn't changing.
[04:24] Arc
    It isn't?!
[04:26] Ariane
    She's actually 245.
[04:28] Ariane
    Mother, I swear, you're always like this...
[04:32] Arc
    Then elves really are long-lived!
[04:35] Arc
    Wait, you were the elder's
    daughter all along, Lady Ariane?!
[04:39] Ariane
    Did I not mention that?
[04:41] Dillan
    My daughter has informed me
    of the general picture.
[04:44] Dillan
    It seems you've helped some of our kin.
[04:47] Dillan
    I would like to thank you
    on behalf of all elves.
[04:50] Dillan
    You have our gratitude.
[04:52] Dillan
    That being said,
[04:54] Dillan
    it was unexpected to hear that she
    would attack a feudal lord's palace...
[04:58] Ariane
    They were the ones who broke the treaty!
[05:00] Dillan
    This was meant to be a message to strike
    at the kidnapper's operations.
[05:04] Dillan
    Why attack a lord's home?
[05:05] Ariane
    Well...
[05:06] Arc
    Sir Elder...
[05:09] Arc
    Allow me to elaborate.
[05:14] Dillan
    I see.
[05:15] Dillan
    You were rescuing girls who had been
    captured by Diento's lord...
[05:23] Dillan
    I understand how it came to pass.
[05:25] Dillan
    But I'll need to explain what has happened
    at the general meeting of the elders.
[05:30] Ariane
    I'll accompany you.
[05:32] Dillan
    Good.
[05:33] Dillan
    I plan on traveling to Maple in the morning.
[05:35] Dillan
    This trafficking contract needs
    to be brought to their attention, as well.
[05:40] Ariane
    Right.
[05:41] Glenys
    Is that all for the political talk?
[05:45] Glenys
    Then why don't we have dinner?
[05:48] Everyone
    We give thanks for this meal.
[06:01] Ariane
    Arc, you can relax.
[06:04] Dillan
    I've heard about your condition.
[06:07] Dillan
    You needn't worry about Glenys and me.
[06:22] Arc
    Thank you for the food.
[06:24] Glenys
    There's lots more, so don't hesitate to ask.
[06:28] Arc
    That would be wonderful!
[06:43] Glenys
    Oh, good morning, Arcky.
[06:45] Arc
    Arc...ky?
[06:47] Glenys
    Did you get a good night's rest?
[06:49] Arc
    You're certainly up early, Lady Glenys.
[06:53] Arc
    Are Sir Dillan and Lady Ariane already gone?
[06:55] Glenys
    Yes, they just left.
[06:58] Glenys
    Wait one moment.
    Breakfast is ready to be served.
[07:02] Arc
    I'm most grateful.
[07:11] Guardian A E6
    We've just been waiting
    for you, Lord Dillan.
[07:14] Guardian A E6
    The transport circle to Maple is ready.
[07:21] Dillan
    Off we go, Ariane.
[07:23] Ariane
    Right.
[07:43] BG Elves
    Step right up.

[08:23] Dillan
    Yes, sir.
[08:25] Arc
    I'm honored that you would show me around.
[08:29] Glenys
    Well, after how you helped look
    after Ariane, it's the least I can do.
[08:33] Ariane
    Is this settlement
    a comparatively larger one?
[08:36] Ariane
    There seems to be many elves, as well...
[08:39] Glenys
    Well, for security,
[08:40] Glenys
    we absorbed a few of the smaller settlements
    that used to be in this area,
[08:44] Glenys
    and now we number around 4,000.
[08:48] Arc
    I guess these kidnappings
    are a common thing...
[08:52] BG Elves
    What's a human doing here?
[08:54] BG Elves
    Are we going to be safe?
[08:55] BG Elves

    What's a human doing here?

    Oh! Mr. Armor!
[09:05] Arc
    Oh, it's you girls!

    You came to visit, Mister!
[09:14] Arc
    Indeed.
[09:15] Arc
    Lady Ariane was nice enough to host me.

    Since you healed me,
    I'm perfectly fine again!

    Oh, I see! That's good to know.
[09:26] Arc
    You two take care, all right?
[09:27] Elf Girl B E4
    Thanks!
[09:29] Elf Girl A E4
    Bye-bye, Mister!

[09:36] Arc
    My apologies for the delay, Lady Glenys.
[09:40] Glenys
    It's quite all right, Arcky.
[09:42] Glenys
    They were happy to see you.

[09:57] Great Elder 1
    The matter of the lord's palace...
[10:00] Great Elder 1
    it can only be described as careless.
[10:03] Great Elder 2
    Going out of their way
    to break a 400 year old treaty...
[10:08] Great Elder 2
    That's as much justification
    for war as there has ever been.
[10:12] Great Elder 3
    Have the humans already forgotten how
[10:17] Great Elder 3
    our lands were split in two
    during the war, 600 years ago?
[10:21] Great Elder 1
    What happened only a generation ago
    for us is a matter of history for humans.
[10:27] Great Elder 1
    There are none alive who still remember.
[10:31] Great Elder 2
    Perhaps we could send a notice
    explaining the situation to the Rhoden Kingdom?
SIGN    Great Elder
    Fangas Flan Maple
[10:38] Fangas
    We're under no obligation to
    justify ourselves to them!
[10:43] Fangas
    And if we reveal
    the details of this operation,
[10:45] Fangas
    those who are executing it would be
[10:47] Fangas
    at risk of being summoned
    by the nation in question.
[10:50] Fangas
    We should not show weakness here.
[10:54] Briahn
    True enough, it was the humans
    who broke the treaty first.
[10:58] Briahn
    But still, attacking a lord's home
    was excessive.
[11:04] Briahn
    If it becomes public knowledge,
    it could spark another war.
[11:11] Briahn
    The operation to liberate
    our kindred will continue,
[11:14] Briahn
    while carefully watching
    for the kingdom of Rhoden's reaction.
[11:17] Briahn
    I see no other way.
[11:24] Arc
    Just to make sure,
[11:26] Arc
    this will be a match between you
    and me, Lady Glenys?
[11:30] Glenys
    Yes. It's all right.
[11:32] Glenys
    You saw Ariane fight, haven't you?
[11:35] Glenys
    I was the one who taught
    her how to use a sword.
[11:38] Glenys
    I should be up to the task.
[11:40] Glenys
    Besides, dark elves are blessed
    with physical gifts.
[11:46] Glenys
    So when we get the measure of someone,
[11:49] Glenys
    we have a tendency
    to test their strength, too.
[11:51] Glenys
    Not to mention, if you're going to be
    traveling with my precious little girl...
[11:57] Glenys
    As her mother, I want to
    know she can rely on you.
[12:00] Arc
    I see. Understood.
[12:03] Glenys
    Okay, then!
[12:06] Glenys
    Here I... come!
[12:12] Arc
    Fast—
[12:20] Glenys
    You saw me coming, but you reacted
    to the surprise like an amateur.
[12:25] Glenys
    If you notice an attack, you need to dodge it
    with the bare minimum of movement.
[12:30] Glenys
    Come on, take your stance!
[12:32] Glenys
    We're nowhere near done!
[12:34] Arc
    This is better than I hoped!
[12:36] Arc
    If I want to live in this world,
    I'm going to need to know how to use a sword!
[12:40] Arc
    And now I'm getting a lesson from an expert!
[12:40] Glenys
    Come on, get ready!
[12:49] Arc
    I am ready!
[12:50] Glenys
    Okay!
[13:13] Ariane
    Father...
[13:16] Ariane
    I'm so sorry.
[13:18] Dillan
    You did it to save our kin.
    There was no other way.
[13:22] Dillan
    You'll be continuing your search.
[13:25] Dillan
    And we'll hire Arc to help you,
    in an official capacity.
[13:30] Dillan
    That took longer than I expected.
[13:32] Dillan
    It would've been nice to see Eevin,
    since we're in Maple...
[13:37] Ariane
    Did you have business with Sister?
[13:39] Dillan
    That's right, you hadn't been told yet.
[13:43] Dillan
    Eevin's going to
    be married, next year.
[13:48] Ariane
    My sister?
[13:50] Ariane
    The combat addict who said
    she would never get married...
[13:55] Ariane
    is getting married?!
[13:57] Eevin
    Oh, Arin!
[14:02] Eevin
    I can't believe you were going to
    go home without saying hello!
[14:06] Ariane
    Sister Eevin!
[14:08] Eevin
    I'm so glad I managed to catch you!
[14:11] Ariane
    I-I'm sorry.
[14:12] Ariane
    It's good to see you again, Sister Eevin...
[14:14] Eevin
    I skipped out on my duty because
    I heard you were coming, you know!
[14:20] Dillan
    You never change, Eevin.
[14:22] Eevin
    Oh, you're here too, Father?
[14:24] Eevin
    But more importantly, it's not "sister"!
[14:27] Eevin
    It's "big sis"!
[14:28] Eevin
    Oh, you've gotten so big
    since I last saw you!
[14:32] Ariane
    Come on...
[14:33] Dillan
    I'm going on ahead.
[14:35] Ariane
    Father, wait!
[14:39] Ariane
    Honestly, Big Sis...
[14:42] Eevin
    I mean it, though. I am proud of you.
[14:46] Eevin
    I heard about how many
    of our kind you've saved.
[14:51] Eevin
    You've become strong!
[14:52] Ariane
    Hardly.
[14:54] Ariane
    I still have a long way to go,
    compared to you.
[14:58] Ariane
    B-By the way, I heard you
    were getting married.
[15:01] Ariane
    Is that true?
[15:03] Eevin
    It is!
[15:04] Eevin
    Are you jealous at the idea of someone
    stealing your loving big sis away, Arin?
[15:11] Ariane
    What's he like?
[15:12] Eevin
    Well, he's serious, and sincere,
    and honestly quite an oddball.
[15:20] Eevin
    You're curious, right?
[15:22] Ariane
    Not really...
[15:24] Eevin
    And is there no one you're
    interested in yourself, Arin?
[15:27] Ariane
    Th-There isn't...
[15:30] Eevin
    Oh, that reaction!
[15:32] Eevin
    Well, that's no good!
[15:34] Eevin
    If someone wants to marry you,
    they need to be stronger than me!
[15:38] Ariane
    You don't ever plan
    on letting me get married, then?
[15:42] Eevin
    Exactly!
[15:44] Ariane
    Big Sis, cut it out!

[16:10] Arc
    I'm vanquished...
[16:13] Glenys
    Oh, the sun is already setting.
[16:15] Glenys
    I should get dinner ready
    before the others are back.
[16:19] Glenys
    Why don't we run on home, Arcky?
[16:22] Arc
    R-Right you are, Lady Glenys.
[16:27] Arc
    I guess there's a kind of strength where
    high stats will only get you so far...
[16:32] Arc
    This is a wide world, Ponta.
[16:37] Glenys
    That was quite a sweat!
[16:38] Glenys
    I can't wait to jump in the bath.
[16:41] Arc
    Bath?!
[16:44] Glenys
    You really want to get in the bath? You?
[16:49] Arc
    I am fully prepared to pay, as well.
[16:51] Glenys
    There's no need for that.
[16:53] Glenys
    But why don't you wash Ponta
    while you're in there?
[16:59] Arc
    I think I'll do just that!
[17:06] Arc
    Come on, Ponta, quit squirming.
[17:08] Arc
    We've gotta get you nice and clean.
[17:12] Arc
    Hey, bubble hurricane!
[17:20] Arc
    This is my first time in the bath
    since coming to the world...
[17:23] Arc
    There's nothing like soaking through to the
    bones after working up a good sweat, Ponta.
[17:29] Arc
    Although I guess I didn't
    actually sweat. Oh, well!
[17:42] Arc
    I bet I look like a washed
    up corpse, don't I, Ponta?
[18:05] Ariane
    Skeleton!
[18:07] Arc
    Lady Ariane, hold! It's me! It is I, Arc!
[18:19] Ariane
    You could have told me
    you were in the bath.
[18:22] Arc
    F-Forgive me.
[18:24] Glenys
    Oh, what's wrong, Ariane?
    You're bright red.
[18:26] Ariane
    It's nothing! Don't worry about it!
[18:31] Dillan
    I see you're both here.
[18:33] Dillan
    Now, before dinner, let's
    discuss your agenda going forward.
[18:39] Dillan
    At the general meeting of the elders,
[18:43] Dillan
    it was decided you would
    investigate the names involved
[18:46] Dillan
    in the contract and continue freeing our kin.
[18:49] Dillan
    To that end, I would like to hire you
    to continue to assist Ariane, Arc.
[18:54] Dillan
    However, to be frank, we can't
    offer much in the way of payment...
[18:59] Dillan
    You seem to have more money
    than we do, after all.
[19:06] Dillan
    Which is why I can offer
    a bit of information instead.
[19:10] Arc
    Information?
[19:12] Dillan
    It could lead to breaking
    the curse upon your body.
[19:19] Dillan
    There is said to be a spring near
    the Lord Crown that can break any curse.
[19:24] Arc
    This could be just what I have searched for!
[19:26] Arc
    Tell me, what is this Lord Crown?
[19:30] Dillan
    Out of the several kinds
    of dragonkin in the world,
[19:32] Dillan
    the greatest of them all
    are the Dragon Lords.
[19:36] Dillan
    And the Lord Crown is a rare type of great tree
    that grows where a Dragon Lord makes its home.
[19:43] Dillan
    There are spirits
    who dwell in the Lord Crown,
[19:46] Dillan
    which has a variety of effects
    on its wood and leaves.
[19:50] Ariane
    But because a Dragon Lord
    lives in its vicinity,
[19:54] Ariane
    any who disturb the spirits
    will suffer for it dearly.
[19:58] Arc
    I see.
[20:00] Arc
    Is it possible to enter the domain
    of this Dragon Lord and survive?
[20:05] Ariane
    It'd be dangerous for a human,
[20:08] Ariane
    but if an elf were to arrange for it,
    we should get permission to enter.
[20:13] Dillan
    So, what do you say?
[20:15] Dillan
    Is knowledge of this
    spring a suitable reward?
[20:20] Arc
    Of course!
[20:21] Arc
    This curse-breaking stuff
    was something I made up
[20:23] Arc
    as part of my character's
    background, for RP purposes...
[20:26] Arc
    but I guess it's a whole thing now.
[20:29] Ariane
    You don't need to worry.
[20:31] Ariane
    When you head to the spring,
    I'll be joining you, Arc.
[20:35] Arc
    Really?
[20:36] Dillan
    What do you say, Arc?
[20:38] Dillan
    Would you be willing to lend
    the elves your strength once again?
[20:43] Arc
    Of course!
[20:44] Arc
    And you have my thanks for the information.
[20:47] Arc
    I would be glad to lend you my sword!
[20:52] Dillan
    I truly appreciate it.
    You'll be a great help.
[20:57] Glenys
    Does that settle all the business talk?
[21:00] Glenys
    Why don't we have dinner, then?
[21:05] Arc
    Looks like I'm going to be looking for elves
    with Lady Ariane again tomorrow.
[21:15] Arc
    I have to wonder, do I really
    look like this because of a curse?
[21:21] Arc
    It was just an avatar before,
[21:24] Arc
    but if it really is
    because of a curse now...
