[01:30] Mithril
    What?!
[01:32] Mithril
    Anne, are you serious
    when you're saying that?
[01:34] Anne
    Yes.
[01:35] Mithril
    By crest... you mean the crest of House Chamber,
    the one that the royal family eradicated, right?
[01:40] Mithril
    If you make something like that...
[01:46] Mithril
    All right.
[01:48] Mithril
    I'll help, too.
[01:50] Mithril
    Which pigment powders do you need?
[01:52] Anne
    Thank you, Mithril Lid Pod.
[01:55] Anne
    Purple, red, and blue. And if you could
    bring green and black, too, please.
[01:59] Mithril
    Leave it to me!
[02:00] Anne
    And could you bring out all the colors
    that are close to those, please?
[02:03] Mithril
    Can do!
[02:06] Anne; internal
    Their crest is the pride of a noble family.
[02:10] Anne; internal
    It might be that Noah thinks of the crest
    as Lord Herbert's heart in physical form.
[02:16] Anne; internal
    That's why Noah continues to...
[02:21] Anne; internal
    Even if the crest is forbidden to exist,
[02:24] Anne; internal
    Lord Herbert's heart...
[02:26] Anne; internal
    that which Noah has gazed at all this time...
[03:08] Mithril
    Is it finished?
[03:10] Anne
    Yes, it's finished.
[03:13] Mithril
    It's complete! Hooray! We did it!
[03:17] Mithril
    You worked really hard!
[03:19] Hugh
    Things seem pretty celebratory in here.
[03:21] Hugh
    Let's go. Bring that with you.
[03:26] Hugh
    We won't tell Noah
    that this is a competition.
[03:29] Hugh
    If we tell him, he might get stubborn out of
    a strange sense of pride and refuse to eat.
[03:37] Hugh
    Noah, are you awake?
[03:43] Noah
    Silver Sugar Viscount?
[03:45] Hugh
    As I promised yesterday,
    I've brought you a present.
[04:00] Anne; internal
    This is...
[04:02] Anne; internal
    How did Hugh know about this?
[04:05] Hugh
    For the board, I used the one
    from the lesser hall.
[04:09] Noah
    What?
[04:11] Hugh
    Unfortunately, the pieces
    were lost to looting, weren't they?
[04:16] Hugh
    But Saint Lewiston Bell Church
    still had detailed sketches.
[04:25] Hugh
    As well as the information that
    Lord Herbert was a master of fief.
[04:29] Noah
    What?
[04:30] Noah
    That's not true.
[04:32] Noah
    Lord Herbert wasn't very good at fief.
[04:34] Noah
    He said that's why I was
    the only one who would play him.
[04:39] Hugh
    I'm sure that was the case.
[04:41] Hugh
    Who would ask the greatest master
    in the kingdom for a match?
[04:46] Noah
    The greatest master?
[04:49] Hugh
    You didn't know that and asked him
    for a game of fief, didn't you?
[04:55] Hugh
    It would've made Lord Herbert very happy...
[04:58] Hugh
    the fact that you wanted to play,
    not as a competition, but just for fun.
[05:06] Noah
    Then, Lord Herbert...
[05:09] Hugh
    These pieces belong to you.
[05:12] Hugh
    Do what you like with them,
    just like you did long ago.
[05:16] Anne; internal
    I see! If it's something that's easy for him
    to take in his hand, then Noah might...
[05:23] Noah
    I...
[05:35] Hugh
    Noah,
[05:36] Hugh
    there's one more present for you.
[05:41] Anne
    This belongs to you, too, Noah!
[05:43] Anne
    Because I made it just for you.
[05:51] Noah
    How?
[05:53] Noah
    This is Lord Herbert's crest!
[05:55] Noah
    It's so beautiful!
[05:57] Anne
    It's beautiful?
[05:58] Noah
    Yes!
[05:59] Anne
    I'm so glad.
[06:03] Anne; internal
    I hope it reaches him, even just a little...
[06:07] Anne; internal
    the fact that Lord Herbert's heart lies there.
[06:36] Noah
    I ate it.
[06:39] Noah
    I...
[06:42] Noah
    I ate it!
[06:44] Noah
    I... I...
[06:47] Hugh
    Noah.
[06:50] Hugh
    Here.
[06:57] Noah
    Silver Sugar Viscount?
[06:59] Hugh
    Eat as many as you want.
[07:01] Hugh
    I'm certain that Lord Herbert won't be angry.
[07:05] Hugh
    You know that, too, don't you?
[07:15] Hugh
    As long as you continue to long for it,
    this crest will not disappear.
[07:22] Noah
    Lord Herbert...
[07:25] Noah
    Lord Herbert truly was here.
[07:30] Noah
    He played fief with me
    and ate sugar confections.
[07:34] Noah
    He smiled and laughed... He was here!
[07:38] Noah
    It was so much fun.
[07:42] Noah
    I had...
[07:44] Noah
    so much fun...
[07:48] Noah
    Lord Herbert.
[07:57] Hugh
    That crest is not allowed to exist.
[07:59] Hugh
    To make it can only be seen as
    equivalent to rebelling against the crown.
[08:04] Hugh
    As a silver sugar master,
    didn't that cause you any hesitation at all?
[08:10] Anne
    Just a little.
[08:12] Anne
    But to not make something
    that someone needed...
[08:17] Anne
    I don't think there's any point in being
     a silver sugar master like that.
[08:28] Hugh
    I see. Well, that's the reason
    for your success.
[08:31] Anne
    What?
[08:33] Hugh
    A crest conveys the spirit
    of the house that gave birth to it.
[08:38] Hugh
    It's proof that his dead master
    once existed in this world.
[08:43] Hugh
    Since Noah knows the meaning of a crest,
[08:45] Hugh
    it's only natural that he saw
    Lord Herbert's heart in it.
[08:49] Anne
    If you knew all of that,
    then why didn't you make the crest?
[08:55] Hugh
    I did make it once.
[08:58] Hugh
    But I destroyed it.
[08:59] Hugh
    I am the Silver Sugar Viscount
    and a servant of the crown.
[09:04] Hugh
    I can't make a crest that his majesty...
[09:07] Hugh
    ...that House Millsland has declared taboo.
[09:10] Hugh
    It's something I must never do.
[09:14] Anne
    Hugh...
[09:16] Anne
    if you can only make
    sugar confections for the monarch,
[09:19] Anne
    then why did you become Silver Sugar Viscount?
[09:24] Hugh
    Kat asked me the same thing.
[09:28] Hugh
    He asked, "Do you want power so badly
    that you'd throw away your freedom?"
[09:33] Hugh
    He was really angry.
[09:37] Hugh
    I wanted power.
[09:40] Hugh
    Even if it meant exchanging my freedom for it.
[09:45] Hugh
    Without power, there are things
    that just aren't possible.
[09:49] Hugh
    Instead of the power of prayer
    within a sugar confection,
[09:51] Hugh
    I wanted power that was direct.
[09:56] Hugh
    Now, that's enough talking!
[09:58] Hugh
    There's no time to be dawdling.
[10:00] Hugh
    Hurry up and call him in.
[10:04] Anne; internal
    If Hugh had made the crest, then...
[10:13] Nadir
    Anne!
[10:16] Nadir
    You're amazing, Anne! I heard you won!
[10:19] Anne
    Y-Yes.
[10:21] Nadir
    I heard Elliott and the Silver Sugar
    Viscount talking just now!
[10:25] Nadir
    This means that Mister Kat will come, right?
[10:28] Elliott
    Exactly!
[10:30] Anne
    Mister Collins.
[10:32] Nadir
    I'm going to go tell everyone!
[10:36] Elliott
    The Silver Sugar Viscount told me
    the gist of how the competition went.
[10:42] Anne
    I don't think I really won.
[10:46] Elliott
    Well, whatever the outcome, you did save us.
[10:49] Elliott
    Isn't that enough for now?
[10:50] Elliott
    Good work.
[10:53] Anne
    Mister Collins.
[10:55] Elliott
    Right, then! Time to resume work!
[10:58] Elliott
    Anne, you should go rest a little.
[11:00] Elliott
    You likely didn't sleep because
    you were thinking about things, right?
[11:03] Elliott
    If you bungle something because of it,
    we're the ones who'll be in trouble.
[11:08] Anne
    Thank you.
[11:12] Anne
    Challe!
[11:16] Challe
    Noah has calmed down.
[11:18] Challe
    It seems the sugar confections
    helped him recover quite a bit.
[11:22] Anne
    I'm so glad.
[11:25] Challe
    You did well.
[11:29] Anne
    Yes.
[11:44] Noah
    I-It wasn't like I was staring
    at the sugar confections, you know?
[11:47] Anne
    Yes.
[11:54] Anne
    Oh. Where is the sugar confection from Hugh?
[11:57] Noah
    It was gone when I woke up.
[11:59] Noah
    Maybe the viscount took it with him?
[12:03] Noah
    Say, would you ask
    the Silver Sugar Viscount for it for me?
[12:07] Noah
    I promise I'll treasure it forever, so...
[12:10] Noah
    so please ask if he would give it to me?
[12:14] Anne
    Yes, I'll try asking.
[12:16] Anne
    He made it for you, Noah,
    so I'm sure it will be fine.
[12:20] Noah
    Yes.
[12:21] Anne; internal
    But would Hugh really take it with him?
[12:25] Noah
    Um...
[12:26] Anne
    What?
[12:27] Noah
    You're... not a thief, you're...
[12:29] Anne
    I'm Anne.
[12:30] Noah
    Anne.
[12:32] Noah
    Anne, why did you give those two
    fairies their wings back?
[12:37] Noah
    Is it because they weren't any use to you?
[12:40] Anne
    Noah...
[12:42] Noah
    Lord Herbert was kind, but he was a liar.
[12:47] Noah
    He said he wasn't good at fief,
    but that wasn't true.
[12:50] Noah
    So, there might be other things...
[12:53] Noah
    The reason he left me here at the castle...
[12:56] Noah
    maybe it was really because
    I was useless to him.
[13:01] Anne
    I gave them their wings back because
    I think of them the same way I do myself.
[13:06] Anne
    Because we're friends on equal footing,
     ordering them around would be wrong.
[13:10] Noah
    What?
[13:11] Anne
    Maybe Lord Herbert gave you yours back
    because you were that important to him.
[13:17] Anne
    Because you were a dear friend.
[13:20] Noah
    A dear friend?
[13:23] Anne
    Yes. And he adores you.
[13:28] Anne
    Now, rest a little more. If you do,
    you'll have even more energy!
[13:33] Noah
    I will.
[13:38] Noah
    Anne, will you stay until I fall asleep?
[13:43] Anne
    Yes, I will.
[13:57] Herbert
    I give my thanks,
    young Miss Silver Sugar Master.
[14:00] Herbert
    Now, I too can finally leave
    this castle with my heart at ease.
[14:06] Herbert
    This time, for certain...
[14:09] Anne; internal
    Lord Herbert.
[14:11] Anne; internal
    For this year's Pull Soul Day, I'll make
    a sugar confection for you, Lord Herbert.
[14:17] Anne; internal
    That way, I'm certain you'll make it to heaven.
[14:21] Orland
    Now we'll be able to start on
    the assembly work that's been delayed.
[14:25] Nadir
    Right? And it's all thanks to Anne!
[14:27] Nadir
    I heard that Anne made a crest and that
    the Silver Sugar Viscount made a fief set!
[14:32] Orland
    I wish I could have seen
    the Silver Sugar Viscount's work.
[14:36] Bridget
    So, she won.
[14:42] Bridget
    Gladus.
[14:47] Bridget
    Gladus? Are you here?
[14:58] Bridget
    What are you doing?
[15:06] Bridget
    What do you think you're—
[15:07] Gladus
    So, it's just you, Bridget.
[15:10] Bridget
    Stop that, Gladus!
[15:11] Bridget
    That was made for the fairy boy!
[15:14] Bridget
    It was meant to bring him happiness.
[15:17] Bridget
    Only the one it was bestowed upon may eat it.
[15:20] Bridget
    It absolutely is not something
    you may lay your hands on!
[15:26] Gladus
    Quiet now.
[15:29] Bridget
    Don't.
[15:36] Gladus
    I can feel strength welling within me.
[15:39] Gladus
    I'd expect no less from
    the Silver Sugar Viscount. This is splendid.
[15:44] Bridget
    Why...
[15:46] Gladus
    I was injured, you see.
[15:47] Gladus
    I've been searching for so long
    for the power to restore me.
[15:52] Gladus
    It's quite good luck that
    I was able to obtain these.
[15:54] Bridget
    You used me?
[15:56] Gladus
    Yes. But I'm very sorry to say...
[15:59] Gladus
    I do not feel the slightest speck of guilt.
[16:05] Gladus
    What will you do?
[16:06] Bridget
    Isn't it obvious?
[16:11] Bridget
    What?
[16:15] Bridget
    Why?
[16:16] Gladus
    You poor thing.
[16:18] Gladus
    I'm sure that the owner of that wing
    must be suffering greatly right now.
[16:23] Bridget
    No!
[16:28] Gladus
    You are interrupting my meal.
[16:39] Gladus
    So this is where you were, Challe.
[16:43] Challe
    Enough! What is your purpose
    in trying to get close to me?
[16:47] Gladus
    What beautiful eyes.
[16:49] Challe
    Stop fooling around.
[16:50] Gladus
    I'm not fooling around.
[16:52] Gladus
    It's something I've envisioned so many times...
[16:55] Gladus
    how very beautiful
    the obsidian fairy's eyes must be.
[17:01] Gladus
    Challe fenn Challe. When I heard your name,
    I understood immediately.
[17:06] Gladus
    You are one of the ones
    I have been searching for.
[17:10] Gladus
    I didn't know your face or name.
[17:13] Gladus
    But I did know that you had been born.
[17:17] Gladus
    Through a sequence of unfortunate
    coincidences, we were torn from each other.
[17:22] Gladus
    "It's possible that we will never meet."
[17:25] Gladus
    With that thought, I gave up
    and a hundred years passed.
[17:28] Gladus
    Who could have imagined
    that we would meet?
[17:31] Challe
    Who are you?
[17:32] Challe
    What is your true name?
[17:34] Gladus
    My name is Lafalle fenn Lafalle.
[17:39] Challe
    Lafalle fenn Lafalle?
[17:41] Lafalle
    What do you think?
    It should sound familiar to you.
[17:45] Lafalle
    A sound that was close to you
    before you were even born.
[17:48] Lafalle
    One that was always inside you.
[17:51] Challe
    The obsidian I was born from was embedded
    in the hilt of a sword forgotten to time.
[17:56] Lafalle
    That's right. A sword enshrined in
    a darkened chapel, as though to hide it.
[18:02] Lafalle
    And there should have been an opal
    and a diamond embedded in that same hilt.
[18:08] Lafalle
    Before you were born,
    I was born from that opal.
[18:13] Lafalle
    Those three precious stones
    were chosen specifically with the hope
[18:17] Lafalle
    that something would be born from them.
[18:19] Challe
    Who... Who chose those three stones?
[18:22] Lafalle
    The sword's master.
[18:24] Challe
    Tell me who that was!
[18:26] Lafalle
    Don't rush, Challe.
[18:28] Lafalle
    I will tell you the answers
    to everything you want to know.
[18:32] Lafalle
    Everything you've wondered until now,
    and everything from now on.
[18:36] Lafalle
    Challe, come with me.
[18:39] Lafalle
    We are meant to be together.
    Our destiny has already been decided.
[18:43] Lafalle
    The fact that we've met like this after
    a hundred years is proof of that, isn't it?
[18:47] Challe
    What did you say?
[18:49] Lafalle
    Shake off the domination of the humans...
[18:52] Lafalle
    and come with me!
[19:03] Challe
    The likes of you will never determine my fate.
[19:06] Lafalle
    As I thought. Is it that girl?
[19:08] Lafalle
    Then I simply need to
    make her mine, that's all.
[19:12] Challe
    I do not intend to let you have her.
[19:13] Lafalle
    Then, I'll take her by force!
[19:22] Challe
    It was you.
[19:23] Lafalle
    That cut from you really had an effect on me.
[19:27] Lafalle
    But, thanks to the Silver Sugar
    Viscount's sugar confections,
[19:30] Lafalle
    I've completely recovered.
[19:32] Challe
    You have a lot of nerve,
    exposing your true identity.
[19:35] Challe
    Don't run away this time.
[19:38] Lafalle
    Well, this is a problem.
[19:40] Lafalle
    Originally, I'd intended to cut you to
    ribbons, but the situation has changed.
[19:46] Lafalle
    Since I don't wish to hurt you,
    I am at an overwhelming disadvantage.
[19:51] Lafalle
    So, to make up for it...
[19:56] Lafalle
    I will take the girl.
[19:59] Lafalle
    If I do, then you will belong
    to me as well, won't you?
[20:13] Lafalle
    I will take the girl.
[20:18] Lafalle
    You are meant to be with me.
[20:28] Challe; internal
    Anne!
[20:38] Anne
    Challe?
[20:44] Challe
    I won't hand you over.
[20:47] Anne
    What's wrong?
[20:49] Challe
    I swore that I would always stay by
    your side, that I would protect you.
[20:53] Challe
    I won't let anyone take you.
