[00:02] ---
    I unsheathe thee, Sword of Light!
[01:47] ---
    Stop!
[01:50] ---
    That's... That's...
[01:53] ---
    The moment he said that,
    the monster lifted its head and howled.
[01:59] ---
    It sounded like an ordinary howl,
[02:00] ---
    no more threatening than
    a dog howling in the distance.
[02:05] ---
    But as soon as its voice reverberated
    across the area and filled the air...
[02:13] ---
    I knit thee thus, Chainmail of Haloes!
[02:19] ---
    Untangle these webs, Dancing Bronco!
[02:27] ---
    Azalie!
[02:28] ---
    It's me!
[02:32] ---
    Please, don't run away!
[02:34] ---
    Azalie!
[02:43] ---
    "The Tower of Fangs"
[02:49] ---
    It felt like a distant memory,
    though not that many moons had passed.
[02:55] ---
    On the northwestern part of
    the continent lies the Tower of Fangs,
[02:57] ---
    a place that trained
    the most powerful Sorcerers.
[03:01] ---
    And out of those sorcerers,
    the best of the best were in Childman's class.
[03:09] ---
    Heartia.
[03:11] ---
    Hark, O Light!
[03:16] ---
    Disappear.
[03:22] ---
    Leticia.
[03:24] ---
    Yes, sir.
[03:26] ---
    O Lightning!
[03:33] ---
    Slash.
[03:42] ---
    Aw, too bad.
[03:45] ---
    Where's Corgon?
[03:46] ---
    He was reading books
    in the attic the last I saw him.
[03:53] ---
    He's actually in the tower?
[03:55] ---
    That's rare.
[03:56] ---
    I don't know what we're going
    to do about that vagabond.
[03:59] ---
    I really wish he'd tell me where
    he runs off to since I'm the class monitor.
[04:03] ---
    Then you're next, Forte.
[04:06] ---
    I humbly decline training with you, Master.
[04:09] ---
    Jeez, you're not fun.
[04:12] ---
    Then I guess I'm next.
[04:15] ---
    Combination 2-7-5.
[04:21] ---
    O Ripple!
[04:31] ---
    Well, that was fun, wasn't it?
[04:34] ---
    I mean, I guess?
[04:37] ---
    Right?!
[04:39] ---
    This isn't a game.
[04:41] ---
    I know.
[04:42] ---
    Hark, O Light!
[04:48] ---
    That's the Chaos Witch for you...
[04:58] ---
    Untangle these webs,
[05:00] ---
    Dancing Bronco!
[05:06] ---
    What the?
[05:09] ---
    It's those students from Childman's class again?
[05:18] ---
    Azalie, you need to hold back more!
[05:21] ---
    If I did, this wouldn't
    be proper training, would it?
[05:25] ---
    However, now you'll need
    to write another apology.
[05:28] ---
    What?! No way! Again?
[05:30] ---
    Ugh, this sucks! This is my 50th one!
[05:37] ---
    You were totally dropping hints...
[05:40] ---
    How could you?
[05:45] ---
    I hope you don't get bored
    and snap that in two, as well...
[05:51] ---
    I'm not collecting instruments for fun!
[05:54] ---
    I'm able to create magic with my voice,
[05:57] ---
    so I figured I might be able
    to do that with sound, too.
[06:01] ---
    So, you finished writing yet?
[06:03] ---
    Wait, why am I writing this apology anyw--
[06:05] ---
    Because I'm sick of writing them.
[06:08] ---
    Then don't do anything that'd make
    you write them in the first place!
[06:11] ---
    Exactly.
[06:12] ---
    Cause any more issues and
    Childman's class is going to disappear.
[06:16] ---
    The other classes hate us enough as is.
[06:20] ---
    They keep saying we're all gifted
    but that we're also troublemakers.
[06:23] ---
    Is that why you're wearing that?
[06:25] ---
    Yes. I applied to be a prefect.
[06:28] ---
    I need to keep all you rabble-rousers in check.
[06:31] ---
    Keep us in check?
[06:33] ---
    Why do I feel like this is
    all gonna fall back on me?
[06:38] ---
    This time, I'm going to truly blow your minds!
[06:40] ---
    At last! I was able to make this
    mechanical battle soldier into compact size!
[06:45] ---
    Necessity is truly the mother of all inventions!
[06:49] ---
    And now, the name of this fabulous invention...
[06:53] ---
    Why you!
[06:57] ---
    Wh-What was that for?!
[06:59] ---
    I call this, the Slayer of Failed Experiments,
[07:02] ---
    the Goodbye Arch.
[07:04] ---
    How dare you! You shall face
    the wrath of the Mighty Cog!
[07:07] ---
    You keep making these weird tin cans,
[07:10] ---
    and we're always the ones
    who have to clean up your mess!
[07:13] ---
    He's right. Do anything weird,
    and I'll make you regret it!
[07:17] ---
    Wait, what did I even do?!
[07:20] ---
    I just sold one of your lipsticks
    to one of your secret admirers.
[07:24] ---
    Wait, how could you?!
[07:25] ---
    You're the worst!
[07:28] ---
    O Lightning!
[07:37] ---
    Talk about divine punishment.
[07:38] ---
    Yeah.
[07:41] ---
    Hey, wake up!
[07:43] ---
    How long do you plan on sleeping?!
[07:44] ---
    We got thrown in here because of you,
    so wake your ass up!
[07:52] ---
    Fraud, disturbing the peace,
    damage to property...
[07:55] ---
    How long is our sentence going to be
[07:56] ---
    if they're trying to charge us with all this?!
[07:59] ---
    Hey, you stupid Sorcerer! Hurry up
    and get us out of here with your magic!
[08:02] ---
    If I actually wanted to leave,
    I would've left a long time ago.
[08:05] ---
    I can open that lock in two seconds.
[08:08] ---
    But I'd rather not become
    a wanted criminal just yet.
[08:11] ---
    Or rather, isn't fraud your specialty?
[08:14] ---
    The real problem here is that monster!
[08:17] ---
    Everyone there saw you talking
    to that damn monster!
[08:23] ---
    Don't you dare call her a monster!
[08:26] ---
    "H-Her"?!
[08:32] ---
    Most kids tend to admire
    any girl that's slightly older
[08:37] ---
    than them and takes care of them.
[08:39] ---
    I mean, I knew you weren't exactly normal,
[08:42] ---
    but I never would've guessed
    that monster raised you.
[08:45] ---
    I see. That actually makes sense.
[08:51] ---
    I was raised at the Tower of Fangs.
[08:54] ---
    The Tower of Fangs? You mean
    where the most powerful Sorcerers...
[08:59] ---
    She's from there, too.
[09:02] ---
    Azalie, her cousin, and I
[09:04] ---
    all entered the Tower of Fangs
    from the same orphanage.
[09:07] ---
    We were orphans... Actually,
    so were most of the Sorcerers there.
[09:14] ---
    If any of us actually had parents who
    cared about us, they'd never send us there.
[09:19] ---
    Since only a few were able to survive
    and actually graduate from that place.
[09:23] ---
    So that mon-- I mean, she was human originally?
[09:29] ---
    Yeah.
[09:42] ---
    So you've come all this way
    to try to return her to normal?
[09:47] ---
    I'd been searching for her,
[09:48] ---
    but she finally appeared
    when I was about to give up.
[09:51] ---
    But as long as I don't know
    what kind of Sorcery she used,
[09:56] ---
    there's really nothing I can do.
[10:01] ---
    Krylancelo.
[10:03] ---
    Actually, I guess you
    call yourself "Orphen" now.
[10:07] ---
    Heartia!
[10:11] ---
    Let's go. Master's waiting for you.
[10:21] ---
    "The Totokanta branch of
    The Continental Sorcerers' Association"
[10:24] ---
    I had no idea you were in Totokanta.
[10:28] ---
    I'm the secretary here.
[10:31] ---
    Though I'm basically just a maid.
[10:35] ---
    I see that you haven't changed, Heartia.
[10:39] ---
    Yet you've changed quite a bit.
[10:51] ---
    It's been five years,
[10:53] ---
    Krylancelo.
[11:01] ---
    Master's finally recovered.
[11:09] ---
    "5 years ago"
[11:38] ---
    Whose funeral is this?
[11:41] ---
    Azalie's.
[11:43] ---
    Are you trying to say she was in this coffin?
[11:48] ---
    This obviously isn't her funeral!
[11:51] ---
    Krylancelo...
[11:52] ---
    You're scared that the reputation of
    the Tower of Fangs is going to be tarnished,
[11:56] ---
    so you're trying to get rid of her?
[11:59] ---
    Do we need to spell it out for you?
[12:01] ---
    She failed her experiment,
    turned into a monster, and fled.
[12:04] ---
    That could become a stain
    that'll ruin the Tower once and for all.
[12:08] ---
    She's not a stain!
[12:10] ---
    She's one of the best Sorcerers to
    appear since this Tower was established!
[12:13] ---
    Not only a master of Black Sorcery,
    she mastered White Sorcery, too!
[12:17] ---
    Yes. She was indeed an impressive Sorcerer.
[12:20] ---
    Not "was"! She's still alive!
[12:23] ---
    Come on, stop! At this rate, you're--
[12:26] ---
    Stop what?!
[12:28] ---
    You're an elite at the Tower!
[12:30] ---
    You just made it to the top of the class!
[12:32] ---
    Shut up, Heartia!
[12:34] ---
    The only reason I'm the top of the class
    is because Azalie never took the exams.
[12:38] ---
    She always said they were pointless.
[12:40] ---
    You're trying to bury an empty coffin.
[12:43] ---
    So I'll go ahead and fill that coffin for you!
[12:47] ---
    You can bury me!
[12:50] ---
    You can bury my name,
    along with Azalie's memory.
[12:55] ---
    I'm going to find her.
[12:58] ---
    No matter how many years it may take!
[13:01] ---
    Until then, my name is Orphen... an orphan!
[13:05] ---
    She's irreplaceable... and I'll be Orphen!
[13:12] ---
    There was something I wanted
    to ask you once you woke up.
[13:15] ---
    She said that she was going to do
    some kind of experiment with you.
[13:18] ---
    What was that experiment?
[13:21] ---
    The activation of the Sword of Baldanders.
[13:25] ---
    The Sword of Baldanders?
[13:29] ---
    But the experiment was a failure,
    and the sword accidentally discharged,
[13:33] ---
    leaving her in that state,
[13:35] ---
    and myself in a coma.
[13:39] ---
    I have finally awakened,
    and now, she's also on the move again.
[13:42] ---
    I believe that she had also
    been unconscious this whole time.
[13:47] ---
    But it's unknown if she still has
    any awareness that she's Azalie.
[13:52] ---
    She may have retained some
    of her memories and instincts.
[13:56] ---
    The impulsive instinct to want
    to return to her human form.
[14:00] ---
    Why was that sword there?
[14:03] ---
    That's what Master ordered
[14:05] ---
    before he lost consciousness.
[14:09] ---
    That's what he ordered Forte to do.
[14:14] ---
    I've been close to the
    Everlasting Family for quite some time.
[14:17] ---
    I wanted to make sure
    no one else tried use that sword,
[14:20] ---
    so I gave them the sword
    to seal it in the mansion.
[14:23] ---
    So that's why she appeared there.
[14:26] ---
    Because she thought she may be able
    to return to normal if she had the sword.
[14:30] ---
    That's what I thought, as well, so I came here.
[14:35] ---
    We haven't been able to capture her though.
[14:38] ---
    I know you just recovered,
    but you're definitely more powerful.
[14:42] ---
    Even if Azalie is the most talented
    prodigy to appear at that Tower.
[14:46] ---
    With Black Sorcery, yes.
[14:49] ---
    But she has a trump card.
[14:56] ---
    White Sorcery.
[14:57] ---
    White Sorcerers have the ability
    to control time and the mind.
[15:02] ---
    It may not sound like much,
    but it's extremely powerful.
[15:05] ---
    So in order to fight a White Sorcerer,
    you need as many Sorcerers as you can get.
[15:10] ---
    Especially skilled Black Sorcerers
    who excel in fighting.
[15:16] ---
    Are you trying to order me to kill her?
[15:19] ---
    She's one of your students!
[15:22] ---
    I'm not going to force you, but it'd be
    a great help if you're willing to help us.
[15:27] ---
    I refuse!
[15:30] ---
    One of the former most powerful
    Sorcerers has lost their mind
[15:32] ---
    and has fled with a forbidden sword!
[15:35] ---
    If this gets out,
    the Tower's authority will be lost!
[15:39] ---
    Not to mention, Krylancelo,
    this is a chance to redeem yourself!
[15:42] ---
    If you help us out,
[15:43] ---
    you'll be able to regain your
    honor after abandoning the Tower!
[15:46] ---
    Then you'll be able to return to the Tower...
[15:49] ---
    I--
[15:50] ---
    Both of you,
[15:51] ---
    stop this pointless argument.
[15:55] ---
    Krylancelo, we are forming a squad
    to go subjugate the monster tonight.
[16:00] ---
    How do you know where she'll be?
[16:03] ---
    As soon as I arrived here,
    I snuck into the Everlasting Family's mansion
[16:07] ---
    and set a beacon into the Sword of Baldanders.
[16:12] ---
    So that I could continue to track her,
    no matter how far she went.
[16:15] ---
    So you're always going
    to be one step ahead of me.
[16:19] ---
    The only way you'll ever see her
    again is if you help us subjugate her.
[16:25] ---
    Will you join us or not?
[16:28] ---
    When are you leaving?
[16:29] ---
    We will be leaving at sundown.
    You should prepare until then.
[16:45] ---
    Orphen, your lunch is ready.
[16:48] ---
    Wait, are you trying to leave without paying?!
[16:50] ---
    That's not it.
[16:51] ---
    Then...
[16:52] ---
    I've got some work to do.
[16:54] ---
    Oh, it must be hard being a moneylender.
[16:57] ---
    That's not it either!
[16:59] ---
    But I can't guarantee that I'll be back.
[17:03] ---
    Time has begun to move again.
    The time that had been stopped all this time.
[17:07] ---
    You'll understand someday.
[17:10] ---
    Probably.
[17:14] ---
    My mother and sister are in bed,
    Mister Marriage Fraud.
[17:19] ---
    I won't try that again!
[17:21] ---
    Then are you here to fix stuff today?
[17:23] ---
    Basically.
[17:26] ---
    I repair thee,
[17:28] ---
    Scars of the Sunset.
[17:38] ---
    Wow, what did all that mean?
[17:41] ---
    It's not really that deep.
[17:43] ---
    It's important to use your voice as
    a medium in order to create the Sorcery.
[17:48] ---
    I could just shout something
    random, and it'd still activate.
[17:51] ---
    Really?
[17:52] ---
    Pretty much.
[17:54] ---
    Repair.
[18:00] ---
    I didn't think you'd actually
    come back to fix everything.
[18:03] ---
    Thanks!
[18:04] ---
    I mean, if you were to actually pay me,
    I'd be able to pay off my tab at the inn.
[18:09] ---
    Sadly, I don't have any money
    I can personally give you.
[18:15] ---
    Will this work?
[18:17] ---
    Come on, I was just kidding.
[18:19] ---
    A Sorcerer gave us this ring, too.
[18:23] ---
    Then Father gave it to me.
[18:32] ---
    Can you read these letters, Krylancelo?
[18:34] ---
    Are these even letters?
[18:36] ---
    They're ancient runes called Wyrd Glyphs.
[18:39] ---
    The letters on this ring say,
    "Drop your weapon."
[18:43] ---
    Basically, it guards the owner from disaster.
[18:47] ---
    Though I think it only works once.
[18:50] ---
    Just once?
[18:51] ---
    Yeah. The precision
    of the letters isn't that great,
[18:54] ---
    so I don't think this was made
    by a very powerful Sorcerer.
[18:57] ---
    Sadly, it only fits on my pinky.
[19:02] ---
    I'm sure it was made for a girl who had
    much daintier and prettier hands than me.
[19:07] ---
    I think that your hands are pretty, too, Azalie.
[19:10] ---
    Oh, how sweet.
[19:12] ---
    Thanks, Krylancelo.
[19:14] ---
    Hey, maybe it was made for
    a child rather than some dainty girl.
[19:19] ---
    You might be right.
[19:21] ---
    That means we might be able
    to use it without having to do a chant.
[19:26] ---
    Actually tonight, we're going
[19:27] ---
    to be doing an experiment involving
    ancient Sorcery just like this ring has.
[19:31] ---
    An experiment?
[19:32] ---
    Yeah.
[19:33] ---
    Master asked me
    to decipher some Wyrd Glyphs,
[19:37] ---
    though Master said the
    experiment might be dangerous.
[19:40] ---
    But we're still going to do it.
[19:46] ---
    Is there something about that ring?
[19:49] ---
    Did Forte bring this, as well?
[19:51] ---
    Forte?
[19:53] ---
    He's really tall and has long hair.
[19:55] ---
    Oh, yeah!
[19:58] ---
    He's the one who visited
    my father from the Tower of Fangs!
[20:02] ---
    So it was him...
[20:04] ---
    Were you at the Tower of Fangs, too?
[20:07] ---
    Yeah.
[20:07] ---
    This ring belonged to Azalie.
[20:11] ---
    Azalie...
[20:16] ---
    Yesterday, you also called
    that monster Azalie...
[20:21] ---
    Does that mean that monster's Azalie?
[20:24] ---
    She's not a monster.
[20:28] ---
    Azalie is...
[20:33] ---
    I wanted to fix up your yard, too,
    but I don't think I have time.
[20:37] ---
    Where are you going?
[20:39] ---
    I'm going to go find her...
[20:41] ---
    Are you going to capture her?
[20:42] ---
    No...
[20:43] ---
    I'm going to get to her before
    they can kill her and run away with her.
[20:50] ---
    I'm going to protect her.
[21:05] ---
    It's time. Let's go.
[21:12] ---
    So you did come.
[21:14] ---
    Join the squad, but you're going
    to have to lead the vanguard.
[21:18] ---
    We won't have to write
    another apology even if you die.
[21:22] ---
    Let's go.
[21:30] ---
    So you did come, Krylancelo.
[21:37] ---
    Comicron...
[21:43] ---
    Everyone here's experienced.
    Of course, I'd know a few of them.
[21:48] ---
    I can't let my emotions get the best of me.
[21:51] ---
    I'm going to protect her, no matter what.
[23:31] ---
    Orphen, I'll look for her, too!
[23:33] ---
    It's too dangerous! I'm the only one
    who's going to participate in this hunt.
[23:36] ---
    I know how to handle a sword!
[23:37] ---
    And I'm a handful when I get angry.
[23:38] ---
    "Heed My Call, Beast"
