[00:01] Bee
    We made it to Whitesails!
[00:04] Menel
    Haven't been here in a while.
[00:06] Menel
    Will?
[00:09] Will
    It's amazing...
SIGN    The Faraway Paladin
[01:44] Will
    There's no entry inspection or toll?
[01:47] Tonio
    That's right.
[01:48] Tonio
    It's the policy of His Excellency
    Ethel, the city's ruler.
[01:52] Tonio
    Goods enter this city by boat
    in tremendous amounts,
SIGN    Episode 9
    Whitesails
[01:55] Tonio
    and then they're distributed throughout
    Southmark by land and water.
[02:00] Will
    Wouldn't that mean a massive amount
    of goods pass through here?
[02:04] Tonio
    Yes, and if all of them
    are checked at the gate,
[02:06] Tonio
    it would be a hotbed for smuggling
    of both goods and people.
[02:09] Will
    I see...
[02:11] Tonio
    So Ethel imposed docking fees
    for ships and rental fees
[02:13] Tonio
    for companies setting up shop here
    to make money for the city,
[02:17] Tonio
    keeping the movement of people and
    goods as unrestricted as possible.
[02:21] Will
    Oh...
[02:23] Will
    It seems like the economy
    is their top priority.
[02:26] Will
    It's a very advanced city,
    with a real sense of freedom.
[02:30] Bee
    Quit talking about all that boring stuff!
[02:33] Bee
    It's Will's first time here!
    Let's have fun!
[02:35] Bee
    C'mon, this way!
[02:39] Bee
    Will, this is the city's biggest market.
[02:42] Will
    Wow... People...
[02:44] Menel
    Why is that surprising?
[02:46] Bee
    Oh, over there!
[02:47] Bee
    Look! These accessories
    are in style right now!
[02:51] Will
    In style?
[02:52] Bee
    Yeah!
[02:53] Will
    There are things "in style" here?!
[02:54] Menel
    Is this stone worth a lot?
[02:55] Bee
    Aw, jeez, Menel...
[02:55] Will
    That means these people can
    afford to think about fashion!
[03:01] Will
    It's just one shock after another.
[03:05] Will
    Is that...
[03:06] Menel
    A street light.
[03:08] Will
    Street light?!
[03:09] Bee
    You don't know what those are?
[03:10] Bee
    Gosh, Will, you're so behind the times!
[03:12] Bee
    Apprentices from the Academy of Sages
[03:15] Bee
    come by in the evenings, lighting up posts
[03:17] Bee
    that have Words of Light engraved on them.
[03:21] Bee
    So the people here have
    light even at night!
[03:23] Tonio
    It serves as training for
    apprentice sorcerers,
[03:26] Tonio
    and they earn a little pocket money, too.
[03:29] Tonio
    That over there is also a large source
    of income for apprentice sorcerers.
[03:34] Will
    What's that?
[03:36] Bee
    Even you must know what that is!
[03:39] Bee
    It's the public bathhouse, Balnea!
[03:42] Will
    Balnea?
[03:45] Menel
    What's wrong?
[03:46] Will
    A public bathhouse?! They have baths?!
[03:50] Will
    The water's so clean,
    you can see through it.
[03:53] Tonio
    Yes, that's an effect of the
    Words of Purification.
SIGN    Heat
[03:57] Tonio
    Instead of the massive amounts of fuel
    it would take to heat the baths,
[04:00] Tonio
    they use Words of Heat.
[04:02] Will
    I see.
[04:04] Will
    So it's less like a bath and more
    like a sauna and a cold water pool,
[04:08] Will
    but it's still amazing!
[04:13] Will
    The breeze feels so nice.
[04:16] Will
    I used Words of Purification to
    keep up good hygiene on the road,
[04:20] Will
    but it's great to have actual baths.
[04:23] Bee
    Boy, it feels good to have
    a bath after so long.
[04:26] Tonio
    That's for sure.
[04:27] Menel
    I just hope things don't get all messy now.
[04:31] Will
    What are we doing next?
[04:33] Bee
    Next is...
[04:36] Bee
    Man, I'm always so hungry after a bath!
[04:41] Bee
    You two must've been starving, huh?
[04:44] Tonio
    The food is quite good.
[04:46] Bee
    Yeah.
[04:47] Bee
    I think it could've been a
    little juicier, though.
[04:50] Will
    It's absorbed the flavor
    of the fish so well,
[04:53] Will
    and the saltiness is just right.
[04:54] Will
    I haven't eaten anything like
    this since I left the temple!
[04:57] Will
    It tastes like... civilization!
[05:02] Will
    It's all so good,
[05:04] Will
    we lost track of the conversation.
[05:10] Will
    This is good, too!
[05:11] Menel
    Can I get a refill on this?
[05:13] Will
    Me, too!
[05:14] Server
    Coming right up.
[05:16] Tonio
    When we're finished eating,
    we'll head to the temple.
[05:19] Tonio
    Since you're a priest, Will,
    you need to pay your respects, right?
[05:22] Will
    Oh... Yes, you're right.
[05:27] Menel
    Wow...
[05:28] Menel
    They spent a lot of money on this.
[05:30] Bee
    Jeez, Menel...
[05:32] Will
    I'll be back as soon as I'm done.
[05:34] Will
    Please wait here for just a bit.
[05:39] Will
    Are temples in cities always this big?
[05:42] Will
    They all look like works of art.
[05:45] Will
    It feels more like a tourist destination.
[05:48] Will
    Um, excuse me.
[05:49] Deacon
    Yes, how can I help you?
[05:51] Will
    Is there a high-ranking priest here?
[05:54] Will
    I've received divine protection
    and become a priest,
[05:57] Will
    so I wanted to pay my respects.
[05:59] Deacon
    Ah... Pardon my asking,
    but which deity do you serve?
[06:03] Will
    Gracefeel, the goddess of light.
[06:06] Deacon
    Oh... The goddess of light?
    That is a problem...
[06:09] Will
    Why?
[06:11] Deacon
    Priests of the goddess of
    light are quite uncommon,
[06:13] Deacon
    so our rules compel me to use
    the Prayer of Faith Detection.
[06:16] Will
    Okay, that's fine.
[06:18] Will
    I guess that makes sense.
[06:20] Will
    It's inevitable that people
    would be skeptical
[06:23] Will
    of a priest to a minor god.
[06:24] Will
    I could be a priest to an
    evil god in disguise.
[06:27] Deacon
    The thing is... all those
    with the divine protection
[06:31] Deacon
    that qualifies them to determine
    another's faith are out right now.
[06:34] Will
    They're all out?
[06:36] Deacon
    Yes. Attacks by demon beasts have been
    on the rise everywhere recently.
[06:41] Deacon
    All but the vice bishop are
    extremely busy at the moment.
[06:44] Will
    Vice...?
[06:46] Bagley
    What are you doing in the
    middle of the aisle?
[06:48] Deacon
    Bishop Bagley!
[06:50] Bagley
    I asked you what you're doing!
[06:52] Deacon
    Uh, well... j-just...
[06:54] Will
    It's an honor to meet you.
[06:56] Will
    I am William G. Maryblood.
[06:59] Will
    I have earned the divine protection
    of Gracefeel, goddess of light,
[07:03] Will
    and have come to the temple of
    Whitesails to pay my respects.
[07:07] Bagley
    Hmm...
[07:09] Bagley
    Bart Bagley. I am in charge of this temple.
[07:12] Bagley
    Gracefeel...
[07:14] Bagley
    The goddess of light, a deity
    who has been all but lost?
[07:17] Bagley
    And how do I know that you are not some
    suspicious individual using her name
[07:21] Bagley
    for some insidious plot?
[07:23] Will
    You have every right to be suspicious.
[07:25] Will
    Is there anything I can
    bless to prove myself?
[07:28] Bagley
    Hah! You novices are so quick to
    rely on your divine protection!
[07:33] Bagley
    Listen to me. Divine protection is
    not something to be used lightly,
[07:38] Bagley
    nor is it something to use ostentatiously.
[07:41] Will
    He has a point.
[07:43] Will
    Gus said the same thing about using magic.
[07:46] Will
    I was using my blessing without concern
    since it poses little risk, but...
[07:50] Will
    You are right, of course.
[07:52] Will
    I truly thank you for reminding
    me of my lack of exper—
[07:55] Bagley
    Hmph!
[07:56] Bagley
    What are the teachings of the
    goddess of light to you?
[07:59] Will
    Light can only exist where
    there is darkness,
[08:01] Will
    words can only exist
    where there is silence,
[08:03] Will
    and life can only exist
    where there is death.
[08:08] Bagley
    You. Put his name in the registry
    and show him around the temple.
[08:12] Deacon
    What?
[08:13] Deacon
    But we haven't performed the Prayer of Faith
    Detection or the Prayer of Lie Detection...
[08:17] Bagley
    Fool!
[08:17] Bagley
    What did I just say, you imbecile?!
[08:20] Bagley
    I need to make an appearance at
    the Weaver's Guild banquet.
[08:24] Bagley
    Spend your time as you please,
    but do not cause any trouble.
[08:28] Bagley
    And do offer some money.
[08:31] Deacon
    W-Well, then, right this way.
[08:34] Will
    R-Right.
[08:36] Deacon
    How unpleasant it must have been for
    you to have met Bishop Bagley.
[08:40] Deacon
    But you handled yourself very well.
[08:42] Will
    Huh?
[08:43] Deacon
    Well, the head of the temple loses himself
    in parties and pleasure-seeking.
[08:47] Deacon
    He's quick to anger and
    complains constantly.
[08:49] Deacon
    Despite all he says,
    he never uses his blessing.
[08:52] Deacon
    The vice bishop, on the other hand,
    is a wonderful, virtuous person.
[08:56] Will
    Um...
[08:58] Deacon
    Oh, dear, I'm sorry!
    Don't tell anyone I said that!
[09:00] Will
    Sure...
[09:02] Will
    Hey, what do you know about
    the head of the temple?
[09:05] Bee
    Hmm... I haven't heard many
    good things about him.
[09:09] Bee
    Like, they say he's vulgar.
[09:10] Tonio
    He seems to have some
    sort of influence behind-the-scenes
[09:12] Tonio
    of the city's commercial and
    industrial guilds, as well.
[09:16] Will
    So that's how he's seen around here?
[09:18] Bee
    Still, talk about living it up!
[09:20] Bee
    I can't believe he let us use
    the temple's guest room!
[09:23] Bee
    Two of them, even!
[09:24] Tonio
    Anyway, what shall we do next?
[09:27] Tonio
    We could take in the sights,
    or visit some guilds...
[09:30] Bee
    Oh, if we do that, I'd recommend the...
[09:33] Will
    Hang on. Something's going on outside.
[09:35] Bee
    That's not the bell that gives the time.
    They're hammering it...
[09:37] Bee
    Is there a fire or something?
[09:39] Tonio
    It's an emergency alert.
[09:41] Townie
    It's a wyvern! Everybody run!
[09:44] Menel
    What?
[10:01] KnightA
    Move! Be ready for anything!
[10:03] ManA
    Someone come help us!
    A person's pinned under rubble!
[10:06] InjuredB
    Ow, ow, ow!
[10:07] ManB
    What's going on?!

    Don't push! Please stop pushing!

    Has anyone seen my child?!
[10:11] Old
    Oh, gods...
[10:21] Menel
    Will, wait! Will!
[10:30] Will
    Why is a wyvern here?
[10:33] KnightB
    Fire!
[10:37] Will
    He said all the high-ranking
    clergy are out right now...
[10:46] Will
    Their civilization... Their city...
[10:48] Will
    Everything the three of them protected...
[10:51] Will
    The place where people can live freely...

[11:09] Menel
    You idiot! What are you doing?!
[11:11] Menel
    Why are you shooting off high magic
    like that in a blind fury?!
[11:14] Menel
    You'll get yourself killed!
[11:16] Will
    But—
[11:16] Menel
    No buts!
[11:17] Menel
    You're fighting a wyvern!
    I'm telling you to be more efficient!
[11:21] Menel
    You've got smarts, so use 'em, moron!
[11:23] Menel
    Don't just rush in!
[11:25] (Flashback) Gus
    You'll start by learning how to use
    minor magic skillfully and accurately.
[11:32] Will
    Right.
[11:33] Menel
    Good.
[11:35] Will
    Think. What can I do about this
    wyvern using what I know?
[11:41] Will
    Menel, would you help me?
[11:43] Will
    I need you and your fairies.
[11:45] Menel
    Sure.
[11:46] Will
    Bee, Tonio!
[11:48] Will
    Work with the people nearby to get everyone
    clear of the temple's front garden!
[11:52] Will
    I'm going to bring the wyvern down there!
[11:54] Priest
    Your Excellency!
[11:55] Priest
    You must take shelter below, quickly!

    Sing in chorus, sing in rounds,

[12:50] Will
    I'm probably not hurting it that much.
[12:54] Will
    But that's fine.
[12:56] Will
    So long as the wyvern identifies
    us as its enemies.
[12:58] Will
    Almost all beasts of this
    type are highly aggressive.
[13:01] Will
    Even in situations where
    they could get away,

    they'll choose to take the offensive.

    It's the birth of a new Wyvern Killer!

    Thank you!

[16:00] KnightC
    Still, I had no idea so many magic users

    and a warrior strong enough to
    kill a wyvern were staying here!
[16:05] KnightC
    It is truly divine providence!
[16:15] Menel
    I guess anything goes with you, huh?
[16:18] Will
    You're surprised?
[16:19] Menel
    I'm used to the way you defy logic.
[16:22] Will
    Well, I was reminded of
    how inexperienced I am.
[16:26] Menel
    Huh?
[16:26] Will
    It was great for a first attempt,
[16:29] Will
    but I was just lucky to
    land a surprise attack.
[16:31] Will
    And what was that black miasma around it?
[16:34] Menel
    Hey!
[16:35] Menel
    You brought down a real monster!
[16:36] Menel
    Critique yourself all you want,
    but at least be a little bit happy.
[16:39] Menel
    It's hard for me to be happy if you're not.
[16:41] Will
    Okay.
[16:43] Will
    When he puts it that way...
[16:44] Will
    There's a lot I could've done better,
[16:46] Will
    but now I'm a Wyvern Killer
    like the three of them.
[16:49] Will
    That makes me happy.
[16:52] Will
    Yeah... Yeah.
[16:53] Will
    Thanks, Menel! I owe it all to you!
[16:56] Menel
    Yeah. We did it, man.
[17:00] Menel
    Also, you know damn well it was
    nearly all your doing, idiot!
[17:05] Priest
    Wyvern Killer!
[17:08] Will
    Yes, that's me! What can I do for you?
[17:10] Priest
    Please come with me, quickly!
[17:12] Will
    Uh...
[17:13] Priest
    The crown prince wishes to see you.
[17:18] Ethelbald
    Welcome to my mansion, hero.
[17:22] Will
    So this is the crown prince of the
    Fertile Kingdom, the lord of Whitesails,
[17:27] Will
    and the ruler of Southmark...
[17:31] Will
    It is a greater honor than I deserve
    to stand in Your Highness's presence.
[17:35] Will
    I have come here per your request.
[17:38] Will
    My name is William G. Maryblood.
[17:41] Ethelbald
    Oh? You are well-versed
    in the old etiquette.
[17:44] Ethelbald
    I assume you are of high birth?
[17:46] Will
    No, um...
[17:48] Will
    If Your Highness could please refrain
    from asking about my origins...
[17:52] Ethelbald
    You have your circumstances, then.
    I understand.
[17:57] Ethelbald
    Please, have a seat.
[17:59] Will
    Thank you.
[18:14] Ethelbald
    William, there are four or five
    in your group, are there not?
[18:18] Will
    Yes, four of us.
[18:19] Ethelbald
    Which makes you a magic user, a priest,
    a fairy user, and a warrior?
[18:23] Will
    Huh?
[18:26] Will
    A traveling priest, hunter,
    merchant, and bard, actually.
[18:32] Ethelbald
    One who shot lightning at the wyvern,
    one who made a wall of light,
[18:35] Ethelbald
    one who controlled air currents,
    and one who broke its neck.
[18:39] Ethelbald
    That makes four, no?
[18:40] Will
    If that makes four people,
    it is indeed correct we are two of them.
[18:45] Ethelbald
    What does that mean?
[18:46] Will
    My friend there, Meneldor,
    called the fairies,
[18:48] Will
    spread Words,
    and manipulated the air currents
[18:51] Will
    to bring the wyvern down to the ground.
[18:54] Ethelbald
    So he is the fairy user, then?
[18:58] Ethelbald
    And the rest?
[18:59] Will
    Was me.
[19:03] Ethelbald
    I'm sorry, but would you mind
    telling me what you did?
[19:09] Will
    I used brute force to break its neck.
[19:12] Ethelbald
    You kill a wyvern and feel no pride?
[19:15] Ethelbald
    You really are a warrior
    of unparalleled bravery.
[19:18] Will
    Uh...
[19:20] Will
    Does anything need to be done to fix
    the damage that the wyvern caused?
[19:23] Ethelbald
    Of course, work has already been
    done, and more is yet to come.
[19:27] Ethelbald
    But there is something more
    important that must be done.
[19:30] Ethelbald
    Yes. Offering my thanks to
    the hero, for example.
[19:35] Will
    No, I—
[19:36] Ethelbald
    Do not be modest.
[19:38] Ethelbald
    I do not want my people to see
    me as an ungrateful man.
[19:42] Ethelbald
    I, Ethelbald, thank you both on behalf
    of the people of Whitesails.
[19:49] Ethelbald
    You did well to minimize the damage
    caused by a wyvern's surprise attack.
[19:53] Will
    I am unworthy of such praise.
[19:57] Ethelbald
    I would like to give you a reward.
    Is there anything you want?
[20:03] Will
    I traveled here today via
    Beast Woods to the south.
[20:09] Will
    The villages in that area
    are currently under threat
[20:11] Will
    by an army of demons commanding
    savage demon beasts.
[20:17] Will
    Um, if I may ask...
[20:19] Will
    Would it be possible for Your Highness
[20:21] Will
    to send soldiers to hunt down the demons?
[20:24] Ethelbald
    It's not impossible,
[20:26] Ethelbald
    but it would be difficult.
[20:28] Ethelbald
    You saw that wyvern.
[20:30] Ethelbald
    Demon beasts much like it have
    been causing frequent incidents
[20:32] Ethelbald
    within the parts of
    Southmark that I govern.
[20:35] Will
    You mean...
[20:36] Ethelbald
    Yes. It's that toxic miasma.
[20:39] Ethelbald
    Any being it touches is corrupted
    by the poison and turns savage.
[20:43] Ethelbald
    Are you certain you are
    well yourself, William?
[20:46] Will
    I am naturally resistant to poisons.
[20:48] Ethelbald
    That is good to hear.
[20:50] Ethelbald
    Under the previous king's policies,
[20:52] Ethelbald
    we expanded our domain too much.
[20:54] Ethelbald
    We cannot even sufficiently protect
    the villages we directly govern.
[20:59] Ethelbald
    Do you understand my meaning?
[21:04] Will
    Then... would you give me permission
[21:07] Will
    to hire adventurers and
    mercenaries with my own money
[21:09] Will
    and organize an army to
    drive out the demons?
[21:14] Ethelbald
    William, do you realize
    what that would mean?
[21:19] Will
    I understand that I am asking
    a great deal of you.
[21:23] Ethelbald
    Yet you stand by your request?
[21:26] Will
    Yes.
[21:27] Will
    If I do not,
[21:28] Will
    how many tragedies would we be
    forced to simply overlook?
[21:32] Ethelbald
    But to save everyone is a task
    not even the gods can achieve.
[21:42] Ethelbald
    Honestly...
[21:44] Ethelbald
    If only you were some nameless man
    making this request of me...
[21:48] Will
    You are right.
[21:49] Will
    That said, had I not killed the wyvern,
[21:52] Will
    I may never have had the opportunity
    to speak with Your Highness.
[21:55] Ethelbald
    That is also true.
[21:57] Ethelbald
    But...
[21:59] Ethelbald
    I must also consider the
    option of killing you.
