[00:27] dad
    Somali.
[00:28] dad
    You are awake?
[00:32] som
    Is it still night?
[00:34] dad
    No.
SIGN    Episode 2
     Edible Herbs and the Oni's Dwelling
[02:24] som
    Got you!
[02:28] som
    Dad! I caught breakfast!
[02:42] dad
    Striking starmaker rocks
    together creates fire.
[02:46] som
    I wanna try!
[02:48] dad
    Unacceptable.
[02:50] dad
    We will gather plants at the riverside
    until the flame has stabilized.
[02:56] som
    Fine...
[03:14] som
    Down the hatch!
[03:20] dad
    Exercise further caution
     during consumption.
[03:23] som
    No way! It's too good to hold back!
[03:26] dad
    A sentiment difficult to grasp
    for one who lacks a sense of taste.
[03:30] dad
    What is the matter?
[03:30] som
    That's the saddest thing I've ever heard...
[03:32] som
    Never feeling happy, or tasting good
    food... there'd be nothing to live for!
[03:37] dad
    Your statement is an overreaction.
[03:41] som
    Look! Bunnies!
[03:43] dad
    Horned rabbits.
[03:45] dad
    Likely drawn here by the smell of breakfast.
[03:48] som
    Hey, c'mon! C'mon!
[03:51] dad
    We will do you no harm.
[03:53] dad
    You are invited to join us.
[04:01] som
    It's so warm and sweet and fluffy!
[04:05] dad
    Forgive the inquiry, but is
    there a city in this region?
[04:11] dad
    I see.
[04:13] dad
    Just outside this forest, then?
[04:15] dad
    Understood.
[04:16] dad
    Thank you.
[04:18] som
    Dad, you can talk to animals?
[04:21] dad
    Correct.
[04:22] dad
    Communicating with animals
    to keep order in the forest
[04:26] ---
    is an ability unique to guardians.
[04:29] som
    That's amazing!
[04:34] som
    That's my honey mushroom!
[04:37] som
    Wait, you! Wait!
[04:37] dad
    Somali.
[04:38] dad
    It is dangerous to run on such uneven ground.
[04:48] dad
    Somali, have you suffered any damage?
[04:51] som
    Dad.
[04:52] ---
    What is it?
[04:53] som
    I'm not an object!
[04:57] dad
    Then I will rephrase.
[04:59] dad
    Were you injured?
[05:00] som
    Nope!
[05:12] dad
    The wound is deeper than it first appeared.
[05:16] dad
    Our medicine stores are depleted.
[05:18] som
    Dad...
[05:20] som
    It hurts.
[05:23] som
    It hurts a lot all of a sudden...
[05:26] shi
    Medicine!
[05:27] shi
    Say, could anyone here use any medicine?
[05:32] dad
    You passed by earlier.
[05:34] dad
    You are a member of the oni clan, correct?
[05:36] shi
    Aw, heck. You spotted me there, huh?
[05:39] shi
    I'm the dwarf oni, Shizuno.
[05:41] shi
    We don't see many golems around these parts.
[05:47] shi
    That sure looks painful.
[05:50] shi
    Let's see... It's not too bad, so...
[05:53] shi
    This should do it!
[05:55] dad
    What is it?
[05:56] shi
    Ointment.
[05:58] shi
    Leave this to me.
[05:59] shi
    I'm a healer!
[06:00] shi
    Making medicines from nature
    is basically my job.
[06:05] shi
    This'll sting a little.
[06:07] shi
    Can you be strong for me?
[06:08] som
    Okay.
[06:09] shi
    There's a brave kid!
[06:14] shi
    Are you a minotaur?
[06:17] som
    Yes.
[06:18] shi
    A golem father with a minotaur kid.
[06:20] shi
    What a funny combination!
[06:24] shi
    There, first aid complete!
[06:26] shi
    You might want to get it
     properly looked at, though.
[06:30] shi
    Why don't we finish up at my house?
[06:32] dad
    That would be appreciated.
[06:34] shi
    And while we're there...
[06:37] shi
    You think I could get a good look
    at that golem body of yours?
[06:45] shi
    Here we are!
[06:48] shi
    That there is my house!
[06:51] dad
    You live in the forest?
[06:53] dad
    Is there not a town nearby?
[06:55] shi
    Well, it was hard going into the
    forest every time I needed herbs.
[06:58] shi
    So I decided to move out here!
[07:01] shi
    I'm home—
[07:02] yaba
    Shizuno!
[07:04] yaba
    You skipped out on tidying up aga—
[07:08] som
    M-My eyes!
[07:09] som
    My eyes! My eyes! My eyes!
[07:10] dad
    Is this a fruit?
[07:11] som
    What a rude thing to do, Yabashira!
[07:14] som
    Throwing things at customers. Honestly!
[07:17] yaba
    Shizuno!
[07:20] shi
    There, all done.
[07:22] shi
    Try standing up now, Somali dear.
[07:29] som
    It doesn't hurt a bit now, Dad!
[07:32] som
    Thanks! You're amazing, Shizuno!
[07:37] shi
    Child's play for the wondrous
    ointments of the great Shizuno!
[07:44] soma
    It doesn't hurt!
[07:46] dad
    Somali. Your recovery is not yet assured.
[07:50] shi
    You kids and your energy!
[07:53] som
    Shizuno, aren't you a kid, too?
[07:55] dad
    Dwarf oni remain small even when grown.
[07:58] shi
    Like he said!
[08:00] shi
    Dwarf oni might not be
    as strong as normal oni,
[08:02] shi
    but we're way better at using our heads!
[08:10] som
    I smell something!
[08:14] yaba
    I'm sorry about before.
[08:16] yaba
    I'm Shizuno's assistant, Yabashira.
[08:19] yaba
    It's not much of an apology,
    I guess, but help yourself.
[08:23] som
    Down the hatch!
[08:28] dad
    It appears delicious.
[08:30] shi
    Yabashira's sweets are always first-rate.
[08:33] som
    You made all of this, Yabashira?
[08:36] yaba
    More or less. I suppose
    I don't look the type...
[08:38] som
    No, it's amazing!
[08:40] som
    You must be a genius if you can
    make sweets this good, Yabashira!
[08:44] yab
    Well, thank you.
[08:46] dad
    But your household appears quite disorderly.
[08:50] yab
    Yeah, Shizuno can't handle tidying up.
[08:54] yab
    He ran off earlier without cleaning again,
[08:56] yab
    which is why I lost my temper.
[08:58] shi
    Well, you're my assistant.
    You should do that stuff.
[09:01] yaba
    An assistant isn't the same thing as a maid.
[09:04] yaba
    My job is to assist you in your work.
[09:07] yaba
    Because making medicines is
    the only thing you're good at.
[09:11] shi
    It's not the only thing...
[09:13] dad
    Shizuno.
[09:15] dad
    Would you instruct me in
    the art of making medicines?
[09:19] dad
    The ability to create medicine even
    when our supplies are exhausted
[09:24] dad
    would be invaluable in emergencies.
[09:27] shi
    Sure thing!
[09:29] shi
    But in exchange...
[09:31] shi
    Can I have a piece of you?
[09:35] dad
    A piece of me?
[09:37] shi
    Yes...
[09:38] shi
    I'd like to learn about golem bodies,
    to help me in my study of medicine.
[09:44] yab
    Hey!
[09:45] yab
    Don't say scary stuff like that.
[09:47] yab
    You're scaring the little girl!
[09:49] shi
    Oh, but I was just joking.
[09:51] shi
    Right, Somali dear?
[09:53] som
    O-Oh, just joking!
[10:11] dad
    Is this acceptable?
[10:13] shi
    Oh... Sure.
[10:17] som
    Dad... doesn't that hurt?
[10:20] dad
    There is no issue.
[10:22] dad
    Golems do not feel pain.
[10:43] som
    Yabashira!
[10:45] yab
    Hey!
[10:46] yab
    Sorry to ask for your help like this.
[10:49] som
    No, helping is fun!
[10:51] yab
    Is it?
[10:53] yab
    Will you help me with the drying, then?
[10:56] som
    Yes!
[10:57] som
    Somali will do it all!
[10:58] yab
    You're sure you can handle it?
[11:00] som
    Yes!
[11:02] som
    I'll go get a chair!
[11:06] shi
    Well, then...
[11:08] shi
    The great Shizuno's medicine
    class shall commence!
[11:14] ---
    Indeed.
[11:15] shizu
    Now, Mr. Golem, do you
    know Hypericum erectum?
[11:19] dad
    It is a grass seen frequently on our journey.
[11:21] shi
    Yep!
[11:22] shi
    It happens to be the most basic herb you'll
    need when you're making ointment.
[11:27] shi
    To start...
[11:28] shi
    You wash it really well!
[11:31] shi
    Then...
[11:32] shi
    Try to cut it up as finely as possible!
[11:36] shi
    Then add about 0.3 liters of
    water to the cut-up leaves,
[11:41] shi
    boil for twenty minutes in
    a pot, and after it cools...
[11:46] shi
    It's done!
[11:48] shi
    Just smear that on the wound.
[11:51] shi
    If you're in a big hurry, you can also
    just squeeze the leaves and use the juice.
[11:56] dad
    Understood.
[11:58] dad
    Will you now teach me the
    preparation of cold medicine?
[12:02] shi
    You'll want Pueraria for that.
[12:04] shi
    It's a kind of kudzu with
    powerful antioxidant abilities.
[12:08] shi
    First, you peel the skin off the root...
[12:11] ---
    Huh?
[12:14] dad
    Allow me.
[12:18] shi
    Thanks so much!
[12:19] shi
    I'm no good at detailed work like that.
[12:22] dad
    I see.
[12:23] shi
    Once it's peeled, you'll want to
    chop it and dry it in the sun.
[12:29] dad
    Dry it in the sun?
[12:30] dad
    That will take time.
[12:32] shi
    That's why...
[12:34] shi
    I have some dried ones right here!
[12:37] shi
    We'll need to boil these too, but...
[12:40] shi
    Huh? Where'd my measuring cup go?
[12:43] shi
    I'll just have to guesstimate!
[12:47] gol
    Is this method not overly reckless?
[12:49] shi
    It's fine. It's not an exact science.
[12:52] gol
    All is explained.
[12:54] gol
    This will increase the
    workload for Yabashira.
[12:59] som
    Yabashira!
[13:00] som
    I dried all the laundry!
[13:02] yab
    Hey, great job.
[13:05] yab
    Then next, let's—
[13:06] som
    What do I do next?
[13:08] som
    I wanna help more!
[13:11] yab
    Don't push yourself too hard.
[13:13] yab
    You must be tired.
[13:14] yab
    You're still a kid.
[13:16] yab
    You should just go play while we wait.
[13:18] som
    I don't wanna!
[13:19] yab
    Huh? Why not?
[13:21] som
    My dad is always doing things for me.
[13:25] som
    He makes food, he makes medicine...
[13:27] som
    And earlier, he said it didn't hurt, but...
[13:32] som
    So I'm gonna work hard, too!
[13:37] yab
    You really do love him, I suppose.
[13:40] som
    Yeah!
[13:41] yab
    Okay, then I'll put you
    to work a little longer!
[14:38] shi
    Say, why did you want to learn
    to make medicine so much?
[14:43] dad
    As I explained earlier, it is more efficient.
[14:47] shi
    You've got a lot of clothes on, too.
    The cloth wraps, the boots, the vest...
[14:53] shi
    You're trying to keep more of your
    skin from breaking off, right?
[14:59] shi
    This isn't something you
    can afford to lose, is it?
[15:04] shi
    But I had to go and ask for it...
[15:09] dad
    You currently resemble Somali.
[15:14] dad
    When Somali was hurt in the forest earlier,
[15:17] ---
    she wore the same expression
    that you wear now.
[15:20] dad
    The muscles in her face distorted,
    and moisture filled her eyes.
[15:25] dad
    Somehow, that expression
    disrupted my thoughts.
[15:30] dad
    This part, in particular, became agitated.
[15:34] dad
    I never want to see that
    expression on Somali's face again.
[15:40] dad
    That is why I need medicine.
[15:43] dad
    A part of my skin is a small price to pay
[15:46] ---
    for lessons that ensure
    it never happens again.
[15:48] dad
    Do not concern yourself.
[15:55] dad
    What is the matter?
[15:56] dad
    Has something happened that amuses you?
[15:59] shi
    No...
[16:00] shi
    I think you suffered a
    little heartbreak, is all.
[16:05] dad
    Your statement is erroneous.
[16:08] dad
    Golems lack both hearts and emotions.
[16:11] shi
    Yeah, but... you didn't like
    seeing Somali cry, right?
[16:16] shi
    I hear you...
[16:18] shi
    You're a very nice golem, aren't you?
[16:25] dad
    Your interpretation is mistaken—
[16:27] som
    Dad!
[16:28] som
    Yabashira is making sweets!
[16:31] som
    I did the laundry and the
    cleaning and the dishes!
[16:35] dad
    I see.
[16:36] som
    And I wiped the table, too!
[16:39] som
    And I watered the flowers, too!
[16:55] som
    Cake... More cake...
[17:09] dad
    You have my gratitude
    for offering her a room.
[17:12] shi
    No problem!
[17:14] yaba
    Anyone would be tired after all that work.
[17:19] shi
    She ate her dinner and dessert
    half-asleep as it was.
[17:23] yab
    She got plenty of crumbs
    on her face, didn't she?
[17:26] yab
    She was as bad as you, Shizuno.
[17:30] dad
    My apologies.
[17:31] dad
    I have requested in the past that
    she take greater care when eating.
[17:34] yab
    Hey, seeing her pack it in like that
    makes me feel like I did my job right.
[17:39] yab
    And it's nice to see kids act like kids.
[17:42] dad
    Is that so?
[17:50] shi
    Hey.
[17:52] shi
    I've been wondering...
[17:55] shi
    What would motivate a
    golem to leave the forest
[17:58] ---
    and go on a journey with a kid like that?
[18:02] yab
    Yeah, I've been wondering that myself...
[18:08] dad
    I am searching for Somali's parents.
[18:13] dad
    I will find them and return her to them.
[18:16] yab
    I see. So that's it...
[18:19] yab
    But where are her parents, then?
[18:23] dad
    I do not know.
[18:25] yab
    You don't know? How are
    you gonna find them, then?
[18:29] yab
    You'll at least need to get some info first.
[18:33] yab
    She's still a little kid.
    You really shouldn't force it.
[18:38] shi
    There's a reason, isn't there?
[18:41] shi
    A reason you need to hurry.
[18:53] yab
    What are you...
[19:00] shi
    Your body... Why...
[19:05] dad
    Do you know the lifespan of a golem?
[19:09] shi
    I read in a book that you
    live a long time, but...
[19:12] dad
    Yes. We live one thousand years.
[19:15] dad
    And our lives end precisely
    at the thousandth year.
[19:19] shi
    End?
[19:21] dad
    I have lived 998 years and 253 days.
[19:28] dad
    My life functions will cease
    in one year and 112 days.
[19:33] dad
    That is why I must return Somali to her
    real parents before that time comes.
[19:40] shi
    Does Somali know you're
    reaching the end of your life?
[19:46] dad
    No.
[19:49] yab
    That'd be hard to tell her, I bet...
[19:52] shi
    A journey to say goodbye, huh?
[19:56] shi
    That's a pretty cruel fate.
[19:59] shi
    Somali seems so content with you, too...
[20:05] dad
    Content?
[20:07] dad
    Is that how Somali feels?
[20:10] yab
    You sure are dense.
[20:12] yab
    You think she'd smile like
    that if she weren't content?
[20:36] shi
    Here. This should hold you a while!
[20:40] dad
    You have my gratitude.
[20:41] yab
    And this is for my little dear.
[20:44] som
    What is it?
[20:47] som
    Sweets? I can have these?
[20:49] yab
    Yeah, eat them if you get hungry.
[20:52] som
    Okay! Thanks, Yabashira!
[20:55] dad
    Refrain from overindulgence.
[20:57] yab
    Well, if you run out, just have
     him make some more!
[21:03] som
    Dad? You can make these?
[21:07] dad
    I will adapt.
[21:08] yab
    Come on, you're supposed to promise!
[21:24] som
    I can do so much helping now!
[21:28] som
    I'll even wash your clothes next time, Dad!
[21:34] shi
    Quite an unusual golem, wasn't he?
[21:37] yab
    Yeah. I hope those two have a nice journey.
[21:42] shi
    I'll say.
[21:44] shi
    And I think he still has
    a few secrets hidden...
[21:48] shi
    Nothing.
[21:51] shi
    I hope we meet them again someday...
[21:54] shi
    That mysterious father and child.
