[00:49] Deputy Commander
    Three hostiles at 1 o'clock!
[00:56] Deputy Commander
    Four more at 9 o'clock!
[01:01] Deputy Commander
    Rear, sitrep!
[01:04] Veteran A
    All green, sir!
[01:05] Deputy Commander
    Commander Dren.
[01:08] Dren
    All right. Let's keep going.
[01:11] Deputy Commander
    Resume march!
[01:18] Ivano
    Man... We're the Zemurian
    continent's largest jaeger corps,
[01:23] Ivano
    the almighty Northern Jaegers, y'know?
[01:25] Ivano
    Why the hell do we gotta play delivery boys?
[01:28] Tak
    Suck it up.
[01:30] Tak
    If we keep this pace up, we can
    make it to Haliask tomorrow.
[01:34] Ivano
    Whew, I'd die for some pipin'
    hot northern borscht right now.
[01:39] Ivano
    We ain't gainin' much experience
    beating up scrubs with these greenhorns.
[01:43] Ivano
    Especially this one right here...
[01:48] Ivano
    who hasn't even been with us half a year!
[01:51] Tak
    Oh? And they're already out on the battle
    lines, if only for an escort mission?
[01:56] Tak
    What is this, the second coming
    of the prodigious Purple Lightning?
[02:02] Ivano
    I was stuck cleaning toilets half a year in!
[02:09] Tak
    Oh, come on.
[02:10] Tak
    You were being disciplined
    for slacking off on your drills.
[02:24] Ivano
    Grr!
[02:25] Ivano
    Hey, rook! Can't you show some respect?!
[02:26] Tak
    Hey, hey.
[02:28] Tak
    You're not kids anymore.
[02:29] Ivano
    Stay right—
[02:30] Tak
    Give it a res—
[02:34] Deputy Commander
    Ivano! Tak!
[02:37] Ivano
    Dude, what?
[02:39] Tak
    It's no big deal.
[02:40] Ivano;Tak
    Right?
[02:51] Dren
    Let it go, Deputy Commander.
[02:54] Dren
    They may look hopeless, but they can
    be counted on when it comes down to it.
[03:01] Ivano
    Get a load of Dren, actin' all bossy.
[03:03] Ivano
    Didn't he enlist at the same time as us?
[03:06] Ivano
    Well, if I got serious, I could outrank him
    and order him around in a heartbeat.
[03:12] Tak
    Man, it's been 8 years since you joined,
[03:14] Tak
    and you're doing delivery
    missions with rooks.
[03:17] Tak
    Wake up.
[03:19] Ivano
    This stuff we're delivering...
[03:21] Ivano
    It's just relief supplies
    for civilians, right?
[03:23] Ivano
    Why does it need so much security?
[03:25] Tak
    Don't ask me.
[03:27] Tak
    It has to be because Erebonia
    and Calvard are butting heads, right?
[03:31] Tak
    You heard about the annexation of Crossbell?
[03:33] Ivano
    If I knew I'd be stuck
    doing boring shit like this,
[03:36] Ivano
    I would've volunteered for the recon corps.
[03:39] Tak
    Wha?
[03:40] Tak
    That mission's being led
    by Rogan and the radicals.
[03:44] Tak
    They're total warmongers, man.
[03:46] Ivano
    Listen, I crave the true jaeger life.
[03:48] Ivano
    I need the hair-raising life-or-death battles,
    thrills, shocking events, and suspense!
[03:55] Tak
    Anywhere Rogan goes,
    he leaves nothing in his wake.
[03:58] Tak
    Not monsters, not people,
    not even vegetation.
[04:01] Tak
    That's what gave him the moniker...
[04:03] Tak
    "The Aurora Phenomenon."
[04:06] Ivano
    Hear that, rook? Ain't it something?
[04:09] Ivano
    Rogan now holds the most
    influence in the jaeger corps.
[04:12] Ivano
    Some young'uns are even
    calling it the birth of a new hero!
[04:18] Tak
    You know how we Northern Jaegers
    number more than 10,000,
[04:22] Tak
    with Master Glark at the top?
[04:25] Tak
    Rogan is one of the few who
    can go toe-to-toe with the boss.
[04:30] Ivano
    Which means...
[04:31] Ivano
    Under Rogan, my potential will be unleashed.
[04:35] Ivano
    I can show what I can do when I'm serious...
[04:36] Ivano
    My 100 percent full power!
[04:41] Ivano
    Huh?
[04:42] Ivano
    Hey, you listenin'?
[04:43] Tak
    What's up? You find a Pom or something?
[04:48] Tak
    This hole's still fresh.
[04:58] Deputy Commander
    Where do you think you're going?!
[05:00] Dren
    All troops, halt!
[05:12] Tak
    So it is Dromes.
[05:14] Ivano
    We're too far out to hit them.
[05:15] Ivano
    Tak!
[05:40] Tak
    You'll be okay now.
[05:59] Dren
    Fire!
[06:21] Ivano
    Good job figurin' out
    there was a village here.
[06:24] Soldier A
    Okay, let's go.
[06:25] Soldier B
    Got any materials?
[06:26] Soldier C
    Wall repairs will be finished shortly!
[06:29] Deputy Commander
    Commander Dren.
[06:31] Deputy Commander
    Two buildings have been destroyed.
[06:32] Deputy Commander
    All other damage is reported to be minor.
[06:35] Dren
    Great. Which leaves...
[06:38] Tak
    Their pulses are stable.
[06:40] Tak
    That said...
[06:42] Tak
    They need antidotes as soon as possible.
[06:45] Ivano
    Drome venom? That's trouble.
[06:47] Tak
    Only Haliask's equipped to treat them.
[06:49] Mia
    Haliask?! But that's so far!
[06:53] Ivano
    We'll keep them and you safe from monsters.
[06:56] Ivano
    Don't you worry, gran.
[06:57] Tak
    We can get there as soon as tomorrow.
[07:01] Deputy Commander
    Tak! Ivano!
[07:03] Deputy Commander
    Carry the wounded to the truck.
[07:05] Ivano
    All right, let's go.
[07:09] Ivano
    Hmm? What's wrong?
[07:12] Ivano
    Dromes, destroying walls
    and swarming into a village?
[07:16] Ivano
    You're right. That is strange.
[07:18] Tak
    They do grow more active
    in snowy conditions, but...
[07:25] Tak
    Wait, were they running from something?
[07:43] Swordsman
    Ow...
[07:44] Dren
    Dodge it!
[07:47] Ivano
    Dren!
[07:48] Tak
    He got careless!
[07:51] Dren
    Fall back... to the church!
[07:54] Deputy Commander
    Retreat!
[07:55] Deputy Commander
    Defend the villagers
    and fall back to the church!
[07:58] Tak
    Damn it...
[07:59] Ivano
    We're not even scratching it!
[08:08] Ivano
    Hey, stop!
[08:09] Tak
    We've been ordered to fall back!
[08:10] Ivano
    Is that moron for real?!
[08:20] Tak
    This is no time to be impressed!
[08:22] Ivano
    Tch. Fine, let's buy some time!
[08:37] Ivano
    Chew on this...
[08:39] Tak
    and go hibernate!
[08:55] Ivano
    You got more rounds?
[08:56] Tak
    Just used my last one.
[08:57] Ivano
    Same here.
[09:02] Ivano;Tak
    Help!
[09:38] Ivano
    Are you crazy, rook?!
[09:40] Ivano
    Lavi!
[09:41] Tak
    Oh, boy. Can't wait to write
    an apology for this.
[09:47] Lavian
    But hey, weren't you bored
    and in need of thrills?

[11:55] Lavian
    Commander, I've finished my report.
[11:58] Dren
    Great. That was quicker than I expected.
[12:00] Dren
    Wait, where's the paperwork?
[12:02] Ivano
    Hey, you forgot something.
[12:05] Tak
    I was a fool to be impressed when
    you took down that giant piece of shit.
[12:10] Lavian
    Here. My written apology for defying orders.
[12:14] Tak
    That seals it. Pay cut for three months.
[12:16] Ivano
    Back to the broke life again, huh...
[12:19] Dren
    Okay. I trust you also filed the relief
    aid application for the settlement?
[12:24] Lavian
    Yep.
[12:28] Dren
    I'm fine. They just went
    overboard on the bandages.
[12:31] Dren
    Though, well, I won't be
    on the front lines for a while.
[12:42] Ivano
    Hey.
[12:48] Tak
    Someone's in a hurry.
[12:50] Tak
    They're always bossy, though,
    so that part's nothing new.
[12:53] Ivano
    Look at them acting like
    they own the country.
[12:57] Ivano
    Don't they realize they're only
    living the cushy life thanks to us?
[13:02] Ivano;Tak
    Hey, Lavi!
[13:06] Tak
    Do you know why we both got pay cuts?
[13:09] Ivano
    It's 'cause you went crazy!
[13:12] Ivano;Tak
    You owe us some northern borscht!
[13:16] Dren
    I've got some things to take care of.
[13:18] Ivano
    Nobody asked.
[13:20] Ivano
    We know you enjoy the same pricey
    cuisine as those snobby lawmakers!
[13:25] Ivano
    Nothing in this world's tastier
    than northern borscht, tho—
[13:28] Dren
    Lavi.
[13:29] Ivano
    What?
[13:30] Dren
    Oh, it's just...
[13:32] Dren
    Those two are total gluttons, so be careful.
[13:34] Dren
    Keep them in check.
[13:38] Ivano
    If you wanna talk Haliask,
[13:40] Ivano
    you can't leave out the famous
    Liberation Square arcade and its stalls!
[13:43] Ivano
    It's just as grand as the one
    in Heimdallr, over in Erebonia.
[13:46] Tak
    Huh? Is this your first time here, Lavi?
[13:49] Lavian
    I have seen it in passing before, but yes.
[13:52] Ivano
    Okay, I'll give you a personal
    guided tour, so be grateful, rook.
[13:57] Tak
    Quit acting high and mighty when
    you're trying to mooch off of that rook.
[14:01] Ivano
    Like you aren't!
[14:02] Tak
    Oh, I guess I am.
[14:05] Ivano
    All right, then. Off we go!
[14:34] Cook
    Here you go!
    Real, authentic northern borscht!
[14:39] Ivano
    Let's get right to it!
[14:42] Ivano
    Yum!
[14:44] Tak
    Yeah... This sour taste, topped off
    by the sweetness of the veggies...
[14:48] Tak
    I could get hooked!
[14:49] Chef
    You know it!
[14:50] Chef
    Our borscht is the best in Haliask!
    Eat all you want!
[14:55] Chef
    Is this lassie a jaeger, too?
[14:58] Tak
    Believe it or not, she's even
    better in combat than the two of us.
[15:02] Old Lady
    Found some! Listen to me, jaegers!
[15:05] Old Lady
    The weather's been terrible lately,
    and everything's going up in price.
[15:10] Civilian A
    We're somehow making do,
    thanks to your supplies...
[15:15] Chef
    But the countryside must be even worse off.
[15:18] Civilian B
    I heard another village
    got attacked by monsters.
[15:21] Civilian A
    Ordinary villagers can't
    deal with the snow and the monsters.
[15:24] Civilian A
    Even getting to the next settlement's
    gotta be tough for them.
[15:28] Civilian C
    We're worried these are signs that things
    are going to get worse.
[15:31] Civilian B
    We can't trust those government dogs.
[15:34] Civilian B
    They're living in luxury
    while the rest of us starve!
[15:37] Old Lady
    We need you Northern Jaegers
    to pick up the slack!
[15:44] Old Lady
    Do your best.
[15:46] Old Lady
    We're counting on you!
[15:49] Ivano
    Oh, hey, gran!
[15:51] Ivano
    We have something to do,
    so we'll be heading out.
[15:56] Ivano
    Thanks for the food!
[15:57] Tak
    It was great.
[16:01] Mia
    This is her first time out of our village.
[16:05] Mia
    Thankfully, my daughter and her husband
    got the antidote in time and are stable now.
[16:10] Ivano
    That so?
[16:11] Tak
    Good thing Lavi noticed so quickly.
[16:15] Mia
    I'd never expected Liberation Square
    to have become an arcade, though.
[16:21] Tak
    Huh? Have you been to Haliask before?
[16:26] Mia
    Yes. I suppose things would change
    after 27 years.
[16:35] Tak
    27 years ago?
    When the revolution took place?
[16:40] Ivano
    Oh, right. This is a memorial, right?
[16:44] Mia
    It's no surprise that you young'uns
    wouldn't know much about it.
[16:50] Mia
    North Ambria used to be a principality
    with a prosperous shipping industry.
[16:56] Mia
    It wasn't a poor country in any way or form.
[17:01] Mia
    But that one morning...
[17:03] Mia
    a massive white pillar, tall enough
    to pierce the sky, appeared out of nowhere.
[17:09] Mia
    It later came to be known as the North
    Ambrian Disaster, or the Salt Pale Incident.
[17:16] Mia
    People, land, and everything else turned
    into white clumps of salt.
[17:22] Mia
    The prince fled the country, and riots
    and coups become commonplace.
[17:27] Mia
    All I could do was run as far as I could.
[17:31] Mia
    I had to keep my daughter safe.
[17:32] Mia
    That was all I had on my mind as
    I walked southwards for days on end.
[17:38] Mia
    But even then, I was this close
    to losing all hope.
[17:42] Mia
    That's when...
[17:46] Mia
    Some people took control
    of all the local coups and riots,
[17:49] Mia
    and started a revolution.
[17:54] Mia
    They became the heroes of the revolution.
[17:57] Mia
    It was here that the
    "State of North Ambria" was born.
[18:02] Mia
    It's all thanks to those heroes
    that I'm still here today.
[18:08] Tak
    Later, those very same heroes
[18:12] Tak
    became the core that
    formed our Northern Jaegers.
[18:15] Ivano
    What? Our boss was a hero of the revolution?
[18:19] Tak
    Dude, even kids know that these days.
[18:23] Mia
    Go on, Miju.
[18:25] Mia
    Don't you have something to give her?
[18:31] Miju
    Hey, miss...
[18:33] Miju
    Thank you for saving my daddy,
    mommy, and granny!
[19:00] Ivano
    Get a move on.
[19:14] M. Civilian
    Is that... the Phenomenon Squad?
[19:16] F. Civilian
    It's Rogan!
[19:17] M. Civilian
    He's returned to Haliask!
[19:19] Ivano
    Hey, that's Rogan!
[19:21] Tak
    Why is he here?
    Wasn't he on a recon mission?
[19:27] Ivano
    Let me in, Rogan!
[19:29] Ivano
    Let me join the Phenomenon Squad!
[19:29] Tak
    Don't! They're radicals!
[19:33] Civilians
    Rogan! Rogan!
[19:41] Rogan
    Wheat-treading season
    is almost upon us, huh?
[19:44] Rogan
    Since it's a crop endemic
    to mountainous regions,
[19:47] Rogan
    it ripens later than usual, does it not?
[19:50] Lavian
    Why...?
[19:52] Rogan
    You look like you're wondering how
    I know the village you were born in.
[19:56] Rogan
    That's not all I know.
[19:59] Rogan
    I also know the man
    who was once hailed a hero
[20:02] Rogan
    and yet abandoned North Ambria...
[20:05] Rogan
    Vlad Winslet.
[20:10] Rogan
    I mean your grandfather...
[20:12] Rogan
    Lavian Winslet, grandchild of a hero.
[20:18] Civilians
    Rogan! Rogan!
[20:31] Rogan
    Back when this country teetered
    on the brink of destruction,
[20:35] Rogan
    the heroes of the revolution saved us.
[20:39] Rogan
    But what did they accomplish after that?
[20:43] Rogan
    What did they leave for future generations?
[20:46] Rogan
    This country still battles
    harsh weather and abject poverty,
[20:52] Rogan
    and even those modest lives could be ruined
    by foreign troops in the blink of an eye.
[20:59] Rogan
    The times are constantly changing.
    They wait for no man.
[21:06] Rogan
    The heroes of North Ambria are dead.
[21:09] Rogan
    This country needs another,
    brand-new revolution.
[21:15] Rogan
    Calvard has lost to Erebonia!
[21:20] Rogan
    Crossbell State has been
    annexed by the Erebonian Empire!
[21:28] Rogan
    All it took was one Soldat.
[21:35] Rogan
    All it took was one Imperial hero!
[21:41] Lavian
    A hero...
[21:43] Rogan
    It's clear as day what Erebonia
    will set its sights on next.
[21:47] Rogan
    The time has come to make a stand!
[21:50] Rogan
    I'm here to start another revolution!
[21:54] Civilians
    Only Rogan could ever hope
    to take on Erebonia!
[21:57] Civilians
    Rogan! Rogan!
