[02:34] Koushi     Kanata! [02:36] Koushi     Kanata, move! She has a bad fever     and needs a doctor right away! [02:54] Kira     Hurry. Take her to my room. [02:56] Kira     Stop! What's gotten into you, Kanata? [02:58] Kira     Hinako might die! Kanata! [03:15] Koushi     Kanata, why are you being like this? [03:25] Hibana     Kira, get away from that dog. [03:42] Yuoshichi     I don't believe it. Why now, of all times? [03:46] Hibana     Stay with the dog and see that     it causes no more trouble. [03:56] Koushi     Kanata? [04:35] Kira     Mother, is Hinako really     going to the hospital? [04:39] Kira     Mother! [04:41] Hibana     She's only going in for observation.     Don't make a fuss. [04:45] Kira     For observation?     Is... Is Hinako's fever that serious? [04:52] Kureha     Please calm yourself, Miss. [04:54] Kureha     She'll stay at Dr. Takimi's      clinic for a thorough— [04:57] Kira     Stop! Don't you lie, too. [05:00] Kira     If that's all it is, why won't     the doctor tell me anything? [05:06] Kira     Mother, tell me the truth!     What's happening to Hinako? [05:11] Hibana     Like I said, that's what the     doctors are going to find out. [05:15] Kira     This house is full of lies! [05:17] Kira     I've had enough of it! [05:19] Kira     We're family, but we never say      one word of truth to each other! [05:23] Kira     Father has so many secrets.     And so do you, Mother. [05:27] Kira     Where are you taking Hinako?! [05:38] Hibana     Take her to her room. [05:40] Hibana     Dr. Takimi, look after Kira. [06:03] Koushi     Hina— [06:20] Koushi     Hinako... [06:47] Takimi     Mrs. Okibi! [06:50] Takimi     Mrs. Okibi... [07:01] Koushi     Kanata? [07:02] Koushi     Follow Hinako! [07:16] Koushi     I know this smell. [07:19] Koushi     Asafuyou? [07:22] Hibana     Catch her. [07:24] Hibana     Catch that girl. SIGN    E [07:30] Kaho     Good morning. [07:32] Kaho     Hm? Where are Touko and Akira? [07:34] Kun     The big lady and the     small lady are both gone? [07:39] Kaho     Ma'am! Ma'am! SIGN    Dear Kaho SIGN    Rin [07:49] Shouzou     Hm? [07:53] Mother     "Dear Kaho..." [07:54] Mother     "I know you'll be angry that I'm leaving,      so I won't tell you beforehand." [08:03] Mother     "I'm going with Ms. Akira to     deliver a written appeal to the gods." [08:09] Mother     "Thank you for everything." [08:12] Mother     "I got this warding stone from my cousin." SIGN    Rin [08:16] Mother     "Consider it a parting gift to the bride     who has protected me this whole time." [08:22] Mother     "I hope you have a good      life with Mr. Shouzou." [08:25] Mother     "If we don't make it back,     please take care of Kun." [08:31] Mother     Kaho, what is this? [08:34] Kun     Where'd the ladies go? [08:38] Kaho     They say they're taking a letter to the gods. [08:43] Kun     I'll go, too! I've gotta save them! [08:47] Kaho     No. They say they'll definitely     come back, so wait here. [08:51] Kun     I'm going! SIGN    Hibari and Akira and Touko [08:59] Akira     The tunnel to the forest     is straight down this road. [09:05] Akira     But if we circle around west to the old road,      we'll reach the cliffs below the palace. [09:12] Touko     I wonder if Mr. Shouzou's dad works here, too. [09:22] Touko     The capital sure has a lot of canals. [09:27] Akira     Not long after the city was built,      a big fire broke out. [09:31] Akira     They say every canal was clogged     with the bodies of people trying to escape. [09:37] Akira     So now, the factory district canals have     pipes that spray water in emergencies. [09:45] Touko     And that water will put out any fires? [09:48] Akira     Well, that's the idea. [09:50] Touko     Did the Lady Goddess's people make     that amazing system to protect humans? [09:56] Akira     Who knows? [09:58] Akira     If the gods really can control the wind      and the rain, they shouldn't need it. [10:06] Hibari     You have quite a mouth on you. [10:13] Akira     I remember you.     You're from the Wind Clan, right? [10:19] Akira     Weren't you keeping tabs     on old Mr. Moneybags? [10:23] Akira     What's a spymaster doing here? [10:28] Hibari     I hear you plan to hunt the     child of the stars, fire hunter. [10:33] Akira     I shouldn't have to tell you that     the spiders will reach the city soon. [10:39] Akira     They want to eliminate your chief. [10:43] Akira     And if the divine clans fall,     this country's people will fall with them. [10:48] Akira     If you don't need to watch     Mr. Moneybags, forget roamers like me [10:53] Akira     and go tighten up the security     around the Lady Goddess. [10:58] Hibari     Do you imagine the Lady Goddess     lives a carefree life under our protection? [11:07] Hibari     It takes more than that to reign     in the heart of government. [11:14] Hibari     I'll show you. [11:21] God A     The land has begun to     go awry everywhere, it seems. [11:27] Goddess B     Lady Tayurahime cannot hold on.     It breaks my heart. [11:33] God C     We must eliminate our lady's burden. [11:37] God C     But can the Flickering Flame     serve as her replacement? [11:42] Goddess D     Regarding that, we can only hope     our lady's prayers will be answered. [11:50] God E     Lady Tayurahime requires fresh paper. [11:56] God F     Not even our lady's prayers can ensure     the Flickering Flame will not be wrathful. [12:04] God G     Creating more of the new race     should ease our lady's burden. [12:10] God H     They live without fire, so at least     she need not waste her strength on wards. [12:20] Goddess I     But that goes against     Lady Tokohanahime's will. [12:25] Goddess J     Even so, society cannot     endure as things stand. [12:29] God K     We must act before the spiders come. [12:33] God L     The Flickering Flame's earthly     vessel remains incomplete. [12:39] God M     A new vessel is needed. [12:43] Goddess N     Yes. One we can use to     house her spirit for a time. [12:53] Hibari     For centuries, we gods have fretted over     whether the coming child of the stars [13:01] Hibari     will consent to becoming      our next Lady Goddess. [13:04] Hibari     She's been floating alone     in the void, you see, [13:10] Hibari     so her thoughts and powers     far surpass our own. [13:24] Akira     Your next Lady Goddess? [13:26] Akira     I thought the Flickering Flame was     a mechanical doll built by ancient humans? [13:33] Hibari     Like Tayurahime and Tokohanahime,     to me, she is an elder sister. [13:40] Hibari     I cannot permit any attempt to hunt her. [13:47] Akira     Touko, hide! [14:51] Touko     Did that happen because     it touched Ms. Akira's blood? [14:56] Hibari     What a shame. Care to keep     trying until your blood runs dry? [15:44] Touko     Kun! [15:49] Hibari     A spider who commands insect familiars?     Now that's a surprise. [15:53] Akira     Kun, why are you... [15:56] Kun     If you kill her, I'll burn you. [16:00] Hibari     You are merely a lowly outcast spider. [16:04] Hibari     Do you want to taste my blades? [16:07] Akira     You called her your sister, right? [16:10] Akira     Then, if she's still alive,     why aren't you trying to help her? [16:16] Akira     Why aren't you by her side? [16:21] Akira     And that vision you showed us... [16:24] Akira     Are you telling me all of those gods     can't make a place for humans to live [16:29] Akira     without relying on a single     Lady Goddess for everything? [16:33] Akira     Why doesn't anyone help her? [17:44] Touko     You saved me. [17:48] Hinako     I have to go or those people will die. [17:57] Hinako     Thank you for Kanata. [18:01] Touko     Wait, are you Mr. Koushi's... [18:09] Touko     Wait! [18:26] Yuoshichi     I'm truly sorry that it has come to this. [18:29] Yuoshichi     My servants are combing     the whole city for Hinako. [18:34] Yuoshichi     I promise we'll find her. [18:38] Koushi     Isn't asafuyou illegal? [18:43] Yuoshichi     My wife suffers from nervous breakdowns. [18:47] Yuoshichi     She once used it in place of medicine.     Perhaps she's found a new supply. [18:59] (Flashback) Takimi     Hinako must be a strong girl. [19:04] (Flashback) Takimi     I will treat her to the best of my ability. [19:08] Koushi     I'm sure Kanata will find her. [19:15] Roroku     Hey there. What's got you looking so down? [19:19] Roroku     Where's Mr. Okibi?     I've got urgent news for him. [19:24] Koushi     I just saw him in his study. [19:26] Roroku     Flame fiends have appeared... [19:29] Roroku     in the factory district. [19:32] Koushi     But the spiders shouldn't be here yet! [19:34] Roroku     Exactly. There's still no sign of them. [19:38] Roroku     The city has fire hunters on duty,     so the fiends haven't done much damage yet. [19:45] Roroku     Still, I figured Mr. Okibi ought to know. [20:51] Narrator     Touko is past the point of no return. [20:56] Narrator     Above her, a single speck of     light streaks across the sky. [21:19] Narrator     Is this shining child of the stars     a portent of the spiders' invasion? [21:26] Narrator     Or is it the last ray of hope     for this crumbling world? [21:44] Kira     Mother... [21:50] Kira     Mother... [21:54] Kira     Forgive me. [21:58] Narrator     The advent of the Millennial Comet,     the Flickering Flame, is close at hand.
