**[00:01] NA**
Previously on Teogonia.
**[00:11] (Flashback) KAI**
Is this... a Divine Crest?
**[00:16] (Flashback) KAI**
The sign of a guardian bearer...
**[00:20] (Flashback) JOSE**
I received the protection of Eydalen,
the land god of Eda Village.
**[00:25] (Flashback) JOSE**
That makes me responsible for this land.
**[00:30] (Flashback) JOSE**
This is my village!
**[00:40] (Flashback) JOSE**
What?
***SIGN*** Arbitration God
**[02:14] NA**
"Arbitration God".
**[02:20] OLHA**
You vainly stepped in front of the
enemy only to be paralyzed by fear.
**[02:26] OLHA**
What a joke.
**[02:28] OLHA**
But now you understand.
**[02:30] OLHA**
Women needn't learn to fight.
**[02:32] JOSE**
But Brother, even women can—
**[02:34] VEZIN**
What matters is that you're safe.
**[02:37] VEZIN**
More importantly,
ensure the area is patrolled.
**[02:40] VEZIN**
An inspector will be coming
from the central plain soon.
**[02:44] OLHA**
I know. I'll tell the soldiers.
**[02:53] JOSE**
Father, I'm sorry.
**[02:56] VEZIN**
Kai, was it?
**[02:58] JOSE**
What?
**[02:59] VEZIN**
A new recruit who can defeat
a macaque by himself, huh?
**[03:03] VEZIN**
I'm excited to see what he does in the future.
**[03:14] LAG VILLAGER A**
Hey, Kai. Is it true that you
were a hero at Eda Village?
**[03:18] KAI**
N-No. I was just desperate.
**[03:22] LAG VILLAGER B**
We heard from Akiza and the others.
**[03:24] LAG VILLAGER B**
Apparently you were pretty
friendly with Lady Jose.
**[03:29] KAI**
Huh?
**[03:29] LAG VILLAGER A**
C'mon, man. Lady Jose must
smell pretty nice, right?
**[03:31] KAI**
Ow!
**[03:33] KAI**
I-I don't know!
**[03:36] LAG VILLAGE WOMAN A**
They're up to something again.
**[03:38] LAG VILLAGE WOMAN B**
Why are all our men like that?
**[03:42] MANSO**
What are you guys bumming around for?
**[03:45] VILLAGERS**
Sorry.
**[03:46] LAG VILLAGE WOMAN B**
That boy who ate all those godstones
might be the only promising one.
**[03:53] LAG VILLAGE WOMAN A**
So you do have your eye on him, Elsa.
**[03:57] ELSA**
What?
**[03:58] LAG VILLAGE WOMAN B**
Then you'd better claim him soon.
**[04:00] LAG VILLAGE WOMAN B**
Otherwise, some other woman
will beat you to it.
**[04:04] ELSA**
I-It's not like that.
**[04:08] JOSE**
Kai.
**[04:10] JOSE**
Do you have a minute?
**[04:15] RAHAT**
Isn't that Kai?
**[04:17] AKIZA**
With Lady Jose?
**[04:24] KAI**
U-Um, what did you want to discuss?
**[04:30] JOSE**
Thank you for saving me in Eda Village.
**[04:35] KAI**
Huh?
**[04:36] JOSE**
I hadn't thanked you properly yet,
**[04:38] JOSE**
so from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
**[04:43] KAI**
O-Okay...
**[04:45] JOSE**
But you had a Divine Crest on your face then.
**[04:51] JOSE**
Yeah, right.
**[04:54] JOSE**
When faced with the enemy, I froze.
**[04:58] KAI**
What?
**[04:59] JOSE**
I realized that just being strong isn't enough.
**[05:03] JOSE**
I need the skill and heart to use it.
**[05:06] KAI**
Lady Jose...
**[05:08] JOSE**
So starting tomorrow morning,
I'll train every day.
**[05:12] JOSE**
I'll be training even harder than before,
so I expect you to join me.
**[05:15] KAI**
What?
**[05:17] JOSE**
Do you understand, Kai?
**[05:19] KAI**
Y-Yes...
**[05:21] AKIZA**
Why's Lady Jose yelling at Kai?
**[05:25] RAHAT**
I'm so jealous.
**[05:34] KAI**
I have to train with Lady Jose
starting tomorrow, huh?
**[05:38] ELSA**
Here.
**[05:39] KAI**
Huh? Is this for me?
**[05:43] ELSA**
Everyone told me to bring this to you.
**[05:46] KAI**
Th-Thanks. I was just feeling thirsty.
**[05:55] KAI**
It kind of tastes better than normal.
**[05:56] ELSA**
R-Really? I'm glad.
**[06:01] RAG VILLAGE WOMAN C**
Elsa, come lend me a hand.
**[06:04] ELSA**
Okay.
**[06:06] ELSA**
Well, see you later.
**[06:07] KAI**
Sure.
**[06:19] KAI**
Huh?!
**[06:20] MANSO**
Spring sure has come for you, huh?
**[06:22] KAI**
It's not like that!
**[06:26] KAI**
A bird?
**[06:33] MANSO**
Kai?
**[06:34] KAI**
I feel like I've heard that call before.
**[06:38] KAI/ID**
*That's it. I heard it in that valley.*
**[06:43] KAI/ID**
*I wish I could go there.*
**[07:17] KAI**
It's that way.
**[07:24] KAI**
What is this? It's so fast!
**[07:27] KAI**
It's like I've become the wind!
**[07:55] KAI**
I like this valley.
**[08:03] KAI**
You're that bird that was crying, aren't you?
**[08:20] KAI**
It's no use. I can't read it like
the gravestone in Eda Village.
**[08:24] KAI**
Did I survive that wound because
you granted me your protection?
**[08:29] KAI**
If that's the case,
then I haven't thanked you yet.
**[08:35] KAI**
Thank you.
**[08:47] KAI**
That should do it.
**[09:02] KAI**
It's strange.
**[09:04] KAI**
It's completely dark out,
but I can see clearly.
**[09:06] KAI**
Is this the power of its protection, too?
**[09:19] KAI**
So good!
**[09:21] KAI**
These woods are bountiful, with
plenty of water and food.
**[09:25] KAI**
I wish I could live here.
**[09:30] KAI**
Then I should build a house here.
**[09:42] KAI**
First I'll need to cut down some trees.
**[09:46] KAI**
But this probably won't work.
**[09:49] KAI**
I'll have to figure something out with magic.
**[09:52] KAI**
I'll do this, and...
**[10:01] KAI**
Oh, no! The tree's burning!
**[10:06] KAI**
Is there really no way?
**[10:09] KAI**
No, I produced fire out of nothing.
**[10:12] KAI**
There must be a way.
**[10:15] KAI**
Think.
**[10:18] KAI**
Magic turned what I imagined into reality.
**[10:30] KAI**
I have to imagine it.
**[10:31] KAI**
Cutting something means breaking
the bonds between molecules.
**[10:35] KAI**
Wait, what are those?
**[10:37] KAI**
Molecules? Bonds?
**[10:40] KAI**
Is this another weird memory?
**[10:43] KAI**
Well, whatever. In other words,
that's what I need to do.
**[10:49] KAI**
That's right. I'm not cutting the tree.
**[10:52] KAI**
I'm unraveling the bonds at the opening.
**[10:55] KAI**
I have to slide an invisible
blade between the molecules.
**[11:03] KAI**
What's going on?
**[11:04] KAI**
Something's approaching?
**[11:15] ORG A**
Teriguttu kajinda...
**[11:17] ORG B**
Ginbu otto?
**[11:19] ORG CAPTAIN**
Iomu guddo. Dagga riyazuttoha.
**[11:28] KAI**
What are they doing?
**[11:29] KAI**
They don't intend to enter the valley, do they?
**[11:43] KAI**
What are you doing?
**[11:46] KAI**
Whoa...
**[11:48] KAI**
Huh?
**[11:49] KOROR MAN 3**
T-Tekerente!
**[11:51] KOROR WOMAN**
Samechiketta!
**[11:52] KAI**
Who are these guys?
They're not children, are they?
**[11:57] KECHAK**
Tadateina?!
**[11:59] KECHAK**
Zattashink hamashi?!
**[12:00] POREK**
Sata, Kechak.
**[12:03] KECHAK**
Kemenshi polekzou...
**[12:06] POREK**
Do you understand me?
**[12:09] KAI**
Huh? Uh, yeah.
**[12:11] POREK**
My name is Porek.
**[12:14] POREK**
I am the leader of the koror people.
**[12:18] KAI**
These are the koror?
I've never seen your kind before.
**[12:22] KAI**
You speak the human language rather fluently.
**[12:26] POREK**
We've had some interactions
with human merchants.
**[12:31] POREK**
Apparently humans consider our
crafts valuable trade goods.
**[12:36] POREK**
First, allow me to apologize for entering
a forbidden area without permission.
**[12:44] POREK**
We came here to entreat the ancient
agreement of the great valley god,
**[12:52] POREK**
god who resembles humans.
**[12:55] KAI**
Huh?
**[12:57] KAI**
Hey, wait.
**[13:01] POREK**
Since ancient times,
**[13:03] POREK**
the koror have lived quietly in the
woods and worshiped the land gods.
**[13:08] POREK**
But several days ago, the pigs—org soldiers
attacked us in an attempt to take our land god.
**[13:17] KAI**
Orgs?
**[13:18] POREK**
Yes. Our feeble kind has
no means to fight them.
**[13:24] POREK**
We were chased out of the land we've
lived in for years and are on the run,
**[13:29] POREK**
ancient arbitration god.
**[13:31] KAI**
What? Arbitration god?
**[13:35] POREK**
Please save us from this
predicament, arbitration god.
**[13:41] POREK**
Please hear our plea.
**[13:44] KAI**
W-Wait a minute.
For starters, what's an arbitration god?
**[13:50] POREK**
An arbitration god
**[13:53] POREK**
is one whose great power surpasses that of
all creatures and protects all of creation.
**[14:01] KAI**
And that's... me?
**[14:04] KAI**
No way. I don't know anything
about that grandiose stuff.
**[14:07] KECHAK**
I also find it hard to believe
he is a true arbitration god.
**[14:13] KAI**
What?
**[14:14] KECHAK**
I heard the avatar of the valley god
we began worshiping long ago
**[14:19] KECHAK**
was a fierce warrior who meted out
harsh punishments to the unfaithful.
**[14:27] KECHAK**
This little human cannot be that
tremendous figure of legend.
**[14:32] KAI**
Who are you calling little?!
**[14:34] POREK**
No, I believe.
**[14:38] POREK**
In my youth, I incurred the god's wrath
after entering the valley without permission.
**[14:43] POREK**
This is what I received for it.
**[14:47] KAI**
What? Gramps, you met the valley god?
**[14:51] POREK**
Although I can no longer see the light of the
sun, there are many things I can still see.
**[14:56] POREK**
This world is filled with spiritual light—
the light of spiritual energy.
**[15:02] POREK**
You are filled with a noble
blue spiritual light.
**[15:06] POREK**
I can tell at a glance that you are
**[15:10] POREK**
the arbitration god who has received
the valley god's protection.
**[15:16] KAI**
I received the valley god's...
**[15:18] KAI**
Is that really true?
**[15:20] POREK**
There is no doubt.
**[15:25] POREK**
Furthermore, we have already
offered a sacrifice.
**[15:30] KAI**
What? Sacrifice?
**[15:42] (Flashback) ARUWE**
I'll be going now.
**[15:45] (Flashback) POREK**
My granddaughter Aruwe has already
offered her life to the valley.
**[15:53] KOROR MAN 1**
Kongurashieita.
**[15:54] KAI**
You can't be serious! I don't want that!
**[15:57] KAI**
Is this how you lowered her down?
**[16:01] KAI**
Something fell!
**[16:02] POREK**
A-Aruwe...
**[16:05] KOROR MAN 1**
Hitakude!
**[16:11] KAI**
C'mon, man! Don't go killing
people in this valley!
**[16:16] KAI**
There she is!
**[16:19] KAI**
Wake up! Hey!
**[16:25] KAI**
At this rate...
**[16:26] KAI**
If magic can help her...
**[16:29] KAI**
I healed my own wounds.
**[16:31] KAI**
I'm sure I can do this.
**[16:35] KAI**
I have to imagine her injuries healing.
**[16:37] KAI**
I'll restore all the damaged parts.
**[16:40] KAI**
All the damaged cells.
**[16:44] KAI**
Cells? I don't know what those are!
**[16:48] KAI**
But if I can revitalize them...
**[16:57] KAI**
Did it work?
**[17:02] KAI**
Rest for a while.
**[17:05] KAI**
So magic can heal injuries, too.
**[17:14] KAI**
The orgs.
**[17:26] KECHAK**
Org dekka! Ninchikka Porek zou!
**[17:29] POREK**
Kechak, houzo reggun.
**[17:35] KOROR WOMAN**
Naideko!
**[17:46] KOROR MAN 4**
D-Daritta!
**[17:48] KOROR MAN 5**
Masaridda chanku!
**[17:56] KAI**
Why have you come here?
**[18:02] ORG CAPTAIN**
Kanti eitaji.
**[18:06] KAI**
A guardian bearer.
**[18:13] VALLEY GOD**
*Kill them.*
**[18:15] VALLEY GOD**
*Kill them. Sear it into their blood.*
**[18:19] KAI**
What is that?
**[18:21] VALLEY GOD**
Instill them with fear.
**[18:26] KAI**
The voice of the valley god?
**[18:33] KAI**
Instill them with fear.
**[18:37] POREK**
This old soldier will assist you.
**[18:40] POREK**
As you can see, I am a guardian bearer.
**[18:43] POREK**
I will not get in your way.
**[18:46] POREK**
The koror of Hacar Village swear
our devotion to the valley god.
**[18:52] POREK**
To you.
**[18:55] KAI**
Right now, we just have to
do something about them.
**[18:59] ORG SOLDIER B**
Gaccha gudesshika?!
**[19:01] ORG SOLDIER C**
Sarande tushika?!
**[19:04] ORG CAPTAIN**
Dejaraika domunde gossadirukudo!
**[19:08] ORG CAPTAIN**
Sadi!
**[19:29] KAI**
Not bad, gramps.
**[19:31] POREK**
This is all the koror's combat
techniques can manage.
**[19:35] POREK**
The rest is up to you.
**[19:37] KAI**
Got it.
**[19:45] KAI**
You've defiled this valley.
I won't let you leave alive.
**[19:48] ORG CAPTAIN**
W-Wait!
**[19:51] ORG CAPTAIN**
Not human business!
**[19:52] ORG CAPTAIN**
Koror and org problem!
**[19:56] ORG CAPTAIN**
You interfere!
**[19:58] KAI**
It is my business.
**[20:00] ORG CAPTAIN**
What?
**[20:01] KAI**
You entered this valley without permission.
**[20:05] KAI**
That alone makes it my business.
**[20:07] ORG CAPTAIN**
W-Wait! We leave.
**[20:10] ORG CAPTAIN**
Please forgive. Forgive us.
**[20:15] KAI**
For the peace of the valley, I'll kill you now.
**[20:20] ORG CAPTAIN**
What?
**[20:23] KAI**
This is my valley.
**[20:29] ORG CAPTAIN**
Valley god!
**[20:31] ORG CAPTAIN**
Please! Please!
**[20:34] ORG CAPTAIN**
I beg!
**[20:38] ORG CAPTAIN**
Then I kill you!
**[20:42] POREK**
Your Holiness!
**[20:51] ORG CAPTAIN**
My hand!
**[20:57] KECHAK**
What happened?
**[20:59] KAI & VALLEY GOD**
Teach them with blood!
**[21:03] KAI & VALLEY GOD**
Instill them with fear!
**[21:06] ORG CAPTAIN**
No... stop...
**[21:10] KAI**
Got it.
**[21:15] KECHAK**
I-Is that the valley god, Lord Porek?
**[21:22] POREK**
I would recognize the blue flames
that burned my eyes anywhere.
**[21:27] POREK**
That god takes without mercy.
**[21:32] POREK**
And it also grants mercy.
**[21:36] POREK**
It remains unchanged.
**[21:38] POREK**
The great god who carries the scales of life.
**[21:44] POREK**
The god of justice who has watched over
the world since the age of the gods.
**[21:50] POREK**
He is indeed the arbitration god!
**[23:24] SIGN**
Next Time
**[23:26] NA**
Divine Crests.
**[23:27] NA**
Are they a promissory note to Heaven
or a one-way ticket to Hell?
**[23:33] NA**
Next time, "A Small Paradise".
**[23:36] NA**
The gears of fate begin to turn.
