[00:10] Grey
    What... is... this?
[00:33] Grey
    Does this monster represent my anxiety?
[00:37] Grey
    Or... the weight of my responsibility?
[00:46] Tess
    Art? Art!
[00:56] Arthur
    What is it?
[00:58] Tess
    Good morning, Art! Time to get up!
[01:01] Arthur
    Please, nightmare monster,
    just another five minutes.
[01:06] Tess
    Hey! Who are you calling a monster?!
[01:09] Tess
    Now hurry up and get ready! Grandpa is waiting!
[01:13] Tess
    Your hair's a mess!
[01:15] Arthur
    You looked like Medusa a second ago, yourself.
[01:22] Tess
    Hey, is it true that you're staying?
[01:25] Arthur
    I'm not sure yet.
[01:28] Arthur
    But I think I'll know once we get
    back from the trip, Princess.
[01:32] Arthur
    Ow!
[01:33] Tess
    Do not call me "princess"!
    It's Tess! Tess, understand?!
[01:37] Tess
    Call me "princess" again and I'll be really angry!
[01:39] Arthur
    You already are...
[01:41] Tess
    Just get changed already!
[01:44] Arthur
    Then could you leave the room?
SIGN    #6 The King's Training.
[03:19] Alduin
    Father, I'm begging you. You know
    that human doesn't belong in Elenoir!
[03:25] Merial
    Lord Virion, Alduin is correct.
[03:29] Alduin
    Allowing him to stay here goes
    against our traditions!
[03:33] Alduin
    Why do you insist?
[03:35] Virion
    I've taken a liking to the boy.
    It's that simple.
[03:38] Tess
    Father! Arthur saved my life!
[03:42] Alduin
    I'm grateful for that.
[03:44] Tess
    Then—
[03:44] Alduin
    This doesn't concern you!
[03:46] Virion
    That's enough.
[03:49] Virion
    Now, come along.
[03:51] Tess/Arthur
    Right.
[03:52] Alduin
    Father!
[04:05] Arthur
    How long until we reach your
    mysterious friend, Grandpa?
[04:11] Virion
    "Grandpa"? Feeling a little too relaxed, are we?
[04:16] Arthur
    Well, depending on how this goes,
    I may have to adjust my attitude again.
[04:21] Virion
    I'll grant your wish.
[04:27] Virion
    She woke up early this morning.
[04:29] Virion
    She was rather persistent in trying to
    learn about what would happen to you.
[04:37] Virion
    Thanks to her position as the sole heir to
    the throne, she's led a rather isolated life.
[04:47] Virion
    She's had her heart broken by superficial
    friends, both adults and children.
[04:54] Virion
    And as a result, she doesn't get close to anyone.
     She leaves her emotional walls up.
[05:00] (Flashback) Tess
    Do not call me "princess"!
[05:06] Virion
    But when she's with you,
    she smiles so naturally.
[05:11] Virion
    A smile I haven't seen from her in a long time.
[05:18] Virion
    I'd like to thank you for that.
[05:23] Grey
    He's willing to thank a child
    like me, if he feels justified.
[05:30] Grey
    I can trust this man.
[05:43] Tess
    Are we there yet?
[05:53] Grey
    Just who is this mysterious friend
[05:55] Grey
    that a former king like Virion is
    willing to travel this far to see?
[06:04] Virion
    We're here, you old hag! Open up!
[06:17] Rinia
    You don't need to shout. I can
    hear just fine, you old bastard!
[06:21] Virion
    This is my old friend, Rinia Darcassan.
    She's a sorcerer with unique skills.
[06:27] Grey
    Unique skills? Then her spells don't
    fall into the normal four elements.
[06:33] Grey
    Just like Alice.
[06:35] Virion
    She's willing to help with your wish.
[06:38] Arthur
    It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Rinia.
[06:41] Rinia
    Well don't just stand there, come on in!
    We'd better get started right away.
[07:01] Grey
    How is she going to help me, exactly?
[07:08] Arthur
    Not to be rude, but I was told by Grandpa
[07:12] Arthur
    that you have a spell that will
    help me to contact my parents.
[07:18] Rinia
    Grandpa, he says.
    You're soft on this boy, Virion.
[07:24] Rinia
    Well, sonny, I'm what's called a Diviner.
[07:32] Rinia
    You're a special child, aren't you?
    There's something about you even I can't see.
[07:39] Rinia
    I can see pieces of your past and future, but...
[07:43] Rinia
    You didn't come here for a prophecy, did you?
[07:48] Arthur
    R-Right.
[07:50] Rinia
    To see your parents, and let
    them know you're all right...
[07:53] Rinia
    That's what you want?
[07:56] Arthur
    Right.
[07:59] Rinia
    Look closely in here.
[08:06] Rinia
    Focus your mind and picture your parents.
[08:09] Rinia
    As clearly, and with as much detail as you can.
[08:16] Rinia
    Talk to them once you can see them.
[08:22] Arthur
    Mom...
[08:27] Arthur
    Shiny, chestnut-colored hair. A slight tan.
[08:31] Arthur
    She's gentle, and warm...
[08:34] Arthur
    And her thin eyebrows are always pressed
    together when she worries about me.
[08:38] Arthur
    Dad... he has piercing blue eyes.
[08:42] Arthur
    He's laid back at home, but outside,
    he has charisma as both a warrior and a leader.
[08:50] Alice
    Here's dinner.
[08:53] Alice
    Let's eat.
[08:55] Rey
    Stew, huh? Looks good.
[08:57] Alice
    Yes. It's your... and Arthur's favorite.
[09:04] Rey
    Right.
[09:06] Alice
    It's his birthday today.
[09:13] (Flashback) Alice
    Arthur! Arthur!
[09:16] (Flashback) Alice
    Let me go! I have to go after him!
[09:20] (Flashback) Adam
    It's Arthur!
[09:26] (Flashback) Durden
    I know how you feel, but is
    this how you wanna react?!
[09:29] (Flashback) Rey
    It was my fault! Because of me...
    And now Arthur's...
[10:07] Rey
    If I hadn't told him to
    protect you and the baby...
[10:12] Alice
    No. I shouldn't have...
[10:23] Arthur
    Dad. Mom. It's me.
[10:27] Alice
    Arthur?
[10:28] Rey
    Is it really you?
[10:31] Arthur
    It's all right. I'm alive.
[10:34] Arthur
    I'm with the elves in the Kingdom of Elenoir.
[10:37] Arthur
    I'm using special magic to contact you.
[10:43] Arthur
    I'm sorry. I want to get back
    as soon as I can, but I can't.
[10:48] Arthur
    There's something wrong with
    my body. I need treatment.
[10:53] Arthur
    It's nothing serious, so don't worry.
    And once it's better, I'll come back to you.
[11:01] Arthur
    Please, don't blame yourselves for what happened.
    I would've done what I did, anyway...
[11:07] Arthur
    even if it had killed me.
[11:11] Alice
    Arthur!
[11:12] Arthur
    I don't know when I'll be
    able to contact you next.
[11:15] Arthur
    But don't worry. And look after yourselves.
[11:19] Alice
    Rey... that was Art!
[11:22] Rey
    It was... It was!
[11:24] Arthur
    Dad, Mom, I love you both!
[11:33] Grey
    Alice. Reynolds. I'm glad you're all right.
[11:39] Grey
    And whatever happens, I've made up my mind.
    I won't let them worry like that ever again.
[11:52] Arthur
    Please, take me as your apprentice.
[12:00] Tess
    How many times do I need to say it?
    Arthur saved my life! Twice!
[12:06] Tess
    If we chase him off, people will
    think that elves are ungrateful!
[12:11] Tess
    Is that what you want?
[12:16] Merial
    Your Majesty...
[12:18] Alduin
    Fine. But if there is any kind of trouble...
[12:27] Virion
    Your daughter's right. Arthur will be under
    my direct tutelage. Let the people know.
[12:35] Alduin
    But...
[12:37] Virion
    If anything happens,
     it will be my responsibility.
[12:44] Alduin
    I want to apologize, Arthur.
[12:48] Alduin
    I think sitting on the throne for as long as I have
     has made me stubborn and set in my ways.
[12:53] Arthur
    No, sir...
[12:55] Alduin
    You are my daughter's friend and
    my father's first human apprentice.
[12:59] Alduin
    Please, let me welcome you officially.
[13:01] Merial
    Please, accept our apology,
    and think of this place as your own home.
[13:08] Grey
    This is a pretty abrupt change in attitude.
[13:14] Grey
    I see. That explains it.
[13:17] Grey
    The king of Elenoir is soft on his daughter,
    and can't stand up to his father.
[13:24] Arthur
    It's a real honor, sir.
[13:25] Tess
    Wait a second!
[13:27] Tess
    If you really feel bad...
[13:30] Tess
    Th-Then let us play outside!
    I want to show him around!
[13:51] Grey
    It was my first time visiting an elvish town.
[13:54] Grey
    There was a lot that I found fascinating.
[13:58] Tess
    There's a bazaar that sells a
    lot of tasty fruit and sweets!
[14:05] Tess
    It's such a popular bazaar,
     they might sell out if we don't hurry!
[14:08] Arthur
    I don't think we need to run!
[14:14] Tess
    Look, there it is! Right there!
[14:19] Arthur
    Oh, excuse me.
[14:21] Feyrith
    Disgusting.
[14:23] Feyrith
    You got your human germs on me!
[14:27] Grey
    Who is this supposed to be?
[14:31] Feyrith
    Lord Virion might've taken a liking to you,
    but this is no place for humans!
[14:36] Underlings
    Yeah, that's right!
[14:37] Underlings
    Go back to your own house!
[14:39] Underlings
    Monkey!
[14:40] Grey
    Not sure I've ever seen a more
    predictable little pest.
[14:43] Tess
    Don't listen to them. Let's just keep going.
[14:48] Grey
    I think I might be developing
    a taste for mischief.
[14:52] Grey
    Tessia's influence, most likely.
[14:55] Feyrith
    While I am impressed with
    your magnanimity, Princess,
[14:58] Feyrith
    if you fraternize with a human,
    it will hurt your reputation.
[15:04] Feyrith
    Please allow myself,
    Feyrith Ivsaar II, to escort you instead!
[15:08] Tess
    That's quite all right.
[15:11] Arthur
    Wait, Feyrith?! The Feyright Ivysour?!
[15:16] Feyrith
    I see my reputation precedes me...
    Wait, what did you just call me?!
[15:21] Feyrith
    The name is Ivsaar, you ignorant peon!
[15:25] Arthur
    I really am ignorant.
[15:28] Arthur
    I had no idea I was in the presence of a genius!
[15:33] Arthur
    Please allow me the honor of
    showing you the proper respect,
[15:35] Arthur
    which I will make sure to do from now on!
[15:38] Arthur
    If you'll please excuse us, then.
[15:43] Feyrith
    Hold it!
[15:44] Feyrith
    Do you think I don't understand what sarcasm is?
[15:48] Grey
    Then he's not that stupid, after all?
[15:50] Feyrith
    On the pride of the Ivsaar name,
    I challenge you to a duel!
[15:56] Grey
    I stand corrected.
[15:58] Tess
    What do you think you're doing, challenging
    Lord Virion's apprentice to a duel?
[16:02] Tess
    You might be nobility, but you need to
    think about what that means, Feyrith!
[16:06] Feyrith
    Begging you pardon, princess, but I was
    taught by my father to brook no insult.
[16:12] Feyrith
    Human! Do you accept the duel?
[16:15] Feyrith
    Or are you going to turn tail
    and run like the monkey you are?
[16:18] Feyrith
    Know that your decision will reflect
    your teacher's honor, as well!
[16:25] Grey
    A duel? Is that not a more
    serious matter in this country?
[16:36] Feyrith
    If you're not saying anything,
    I take that to mean you accept.
[16:39] Feyrith
    Princess Tessia, if you'd officiate.
[16:42] Tess
    Are you sure?
[16:43] Arthur
    Yeah.
[16:57] Tess
    Let the duel...
[17:04] Tess
    Begin!
[17:05] Reyrith
    Say your prayers, Arthur the human!
[17:16] Grey
    Did I hit him too hard?
[17:19] Underlings
    Feyrith!
[17:22] Arthur
    Huh? All done?
[17:25] Tess
    I knew this would happen.
    And I tried to warn him.
[17:30] Tess
    Let's run!
[17:36] Grey
    I found myself more and more
    charmed with this little princess.
[18:05] Tess
    Your training starts tomorrow, huh?
[18:07] Arthur
    Yeah.
[18:08] Tess
    Are you looking forward to it?
[18:10] Arthur
    Yeah, I guess so.
[18:14] Tess
    Is something wrong?
[18:16] Arthur
    No, it's fine.
[18:20] (Flashback) Virion
    I'll be blunt. My instruction
    is not for the faint of heart.
[18:23] (Flashback) Arthur
    Yes, sir.
[18:25] (Flashback) Virion
    Beast tamer training has been compared
    to being dipped into boiling pitch.
[18:35] (Flashback) Virion
    You've chosen to remain in this foreign land,
     without the support of your family.
[18:42] (Flashback) Virion
    Even your daily life will require diligence.
[18:46] (Flashback) Virion
    But should you endure it all,
    you will have much to gain.
[18:51] (Flashback) Virion
    So, I ask you one last time: are you prepared?
[18:56] (Flashback) Arthur
    Yes, sir!
[18:58] (Flashback) Virion
    I wouldn't worry about the pain in
    your mana core for the time being.
[19:06] Arthur
    I'm really looking forward to it!
[19:09] Arthur
    I've been through a lot to get to this point.
[19:12] Arthur
    Training with my family,
    and a bunch of fights...
[19:17] Arthur
    And all of it was exciting,
[19:20] Arthur
    because I'm choosing my own future.
[19:28] Tess
    You're right! I'm gonna work hard, too!
[19:31] Arthur
    Work hard on what, Tess?
[19:33] Tess
    Everything! I'm going to be working hard
    to do just as much as you do, Arthur!
[19:40] Tess
    I'm hungry. Let's have something to eat.
[19:42] Arthur
    You just ate!
[19:44] Tess
    It's fine! Come on, let's go!
[19:55] Virion
    Let's begin, then.
[19:57] Arthur
    Yes, sir.
[19:59] Grey
    In this new world, time really does seem to fly.
[20:05] Grey
    I've grown and gotten stronger,
    but the path has had it's share of trials.
[20:12] Grey
    And it seems that things will only
    grow more difficult the further I go.
[20:18] Grey
    But for now, I'll focus on
    the door in front of me.
[20:25] Arthur
    Because I understand, for some reason...
[20:28] Arthur
    That the future is going to be exciting.
SIGN    Three years later
[22:10] Tess
    Arthur.
[22:13] Tess
    Arthur?
[22:15] Tess
    Come on, how much longer?
[22:23] Tess
    If you don't get a move on...
[22:28] Arthur
    Fine! I get it! You win!
[22:35] Arthur
    You actually used mana!
[22:39] Arthur
    Can't you be a little more gentle, Tess?!
[22:43] Tess
    I tried to be, at first. But you didn't wake up.
