[00:00] Lavian
    The Empire's hero, Rean Schwarzer!
[00:04] Lavian
    As a North Ambrian,
[00:06] Lavian
    I've got something to say to you!
[00:13] Rean
    What's that?
[00:21] Lavian
    The people of North Ambria fear you.
[00:25] Rean
    I'm not going to harm them.
[00:28] Lavian
    Then what's your goal?
[00:30] Lavian
    To dismantle the Northern Jaegers?
[00:32] Rean
    The order I was given is to
    evacuate the citizens of Haliask.
[00:37] Lavian
    That can't be all.
[00:39] Rean
    I was also told to capture the mastermind,
[00:42] Rean
    but people's lives are my priority.
[00:47] Lavian
    I need the help of a hero.

[02:25] Lavian
    The archaisms are acting
    abnormally right now.
[02:29] Lavian
    No one in this country can stop them.
[02:32] Lavian
    But you're different.
[02:35] Lavian
    No matter what kind of archaism you face,
[02:36] Lavian
    you should be able to destroy them all.
[02:41] Lavian
    "No matter who they are..."
[02:43] (Flashback) Rean
    I'll protect them.
[02:45] Lavian
    That's what you said to me back then.
[02:48] Rean
    I did.
[02:49] Lavian
    Stop this chaos without
    letting anyone get hurt.
[02:53] Lavian
    I'll go get rid of its cause.
[02:55] Lavian
    I leave the lives and pride
    of North Ambria in your hands.
[03:00] Rean
    Talk about unreasonable.
[03:04] Rean
    Very well.
[03:05] Rean
    Crossing swords told me how much
    this request means to you.
[03:20] Marty
    Why did you charge in by yourself?
    You're so impatient!
[03:26] Rean
    Sorry about that, Marty.
[03:29] Lavian
    Marty?!
[03:30] Marty
    Save the touching reunion
    for later. They're coming!
SIGN    Detecting abnormalities in archaisms across the city.
SIGN    It seems they have malfunctioned all at once.
[03:43] Rean
    We'll now begin evacuating the citizens
    while intercepting their attacks!
[03:56] Lavian
    They'll gather at the palace!
[03:58] Lavian
    To the square, everyone!
[04:02] Marty
    H-Hey!
[04:03] Lavian
    I knew you'd still be alive.
[04:13] Lavian
    Iseria and I have a ton to ask you.
    Better be ready after this is over.
[04:18] Marty
    Big words, little girl.
[04:21] Lavian
    Head toward Balmund Forest.
[04:23] Lavian
    She's sure to show herself...
[04:25] Lavian
    The one responsible for throwing
    North Ambria into chaos.
[04:29] Marty
    So that's how it is. I'm gonna floor it!
[04:36] Rean
    The enemy left me in charge here, huh?
[04:39] Rean
    If Machias or someone found out,
    they'd lose their minds again.
[04:42] Sara
    Rean!
[04:53] Sara
    I'm with the Bracer Guild.
[04:54] Sara
    We will now work with rescue teams
    and guide all of you to safety!
[05:01] Sara
    Sorry I'm late.
[05:03] Rean
    No, you're a lifesaver, Instructor Sara!

[05:14] Marty
    Ugh... There's no end to them.
[05:24] Marty
    Whoa.
[05:26] Altina
    Hand her over to me.
    I'll take her to her destination.
[05:29] Marty
    Huh? I don't get it,
[05:31] Marty
    but she's all yours!
SIGN    Show me the way.
[05:36] Marty
    I'm counting on you.
[05:38] Rogan
    Evacuating the citizens
    will be our top priority.
[05:40] Rogan
    Tell all units to lure the archaisms
    outside the city and create an escape route!
[05:45] Rogan
    Doesn't matter how!
[05:46] Aides
    Sir!
[05:51] Aide1
    That's...
[05:52] Rogan
    I'll be right back.
[05:56] Jaeger
    This way, you stupid puppets!
[06:00] Jayna
    The bit players are doing their best.
    How wonderful.
[06:07] Jayna
    But I'm getting tired of seeing
    the same performance over and over.
[06:11] Talion
    But you have something
    else in store, don't you?
[06:14] Jayna
    I do.
[06:15] Jayna
    A tragedy to put even the Salt Pale to shame.
[06:23] Jayna
    Now, let us go.
[06:24] Jayna
    The turning point of the show is coming up.
SIGN    Septium Processing Plant Ruins
SIGN    I'll be taking my leave here.
[06:33] Lavian
    Thanks. You were a great help.
[06:36] Lavian
    Why help me?
SIGN    "Rise up, and make your voices heard... Things will surely change."
SIGN    I determined that it was necessary to lend you support.
SIGN    That is all.
[07:00] Jayna
    Welcome...
[07:02] Jayna
    to the stage for our climax.
[07:16] Lavian
    Right now, Haliask is drowning in chaos.
[07:19] Lavian
    Do you realize how many people
    you're making suffer with your actions?
[07:23] Lavian
    Shut down this plant at once.
[07:25] Jayna
    It began with a single droplet.
[07:28] Jayna
    That one droplet soon ate away at
    the body, circulated in the blood,
[07:32] Jayna
    and became part of a ruler who longed
    for the day he took the throne.
[07:37] Jayna
    But heroes put a stop to his coronation,
[07:40] Jayna
    and the curse of that ruler
    who lost everything
[07:43] Jayna
    destroyed the heroes of North Ambria.
[07:47] Lavian
    What are you talking about?!
[07:55] Campanella
    That's enough.
[07:58] Rogan
    You damned clown!
[08:03] Campanella
    If this broke, it'd ruin everything.
[08:07] Jayna
    The withered hero breathed life into puppets
    by offering up his homeland in exchange.
[08:13] Jayna
    The toy is proof of the secret pact to
    give the clown all that his homeland had.
[08:19] Jayna
    The pact between the two was
    broken with the hero's death,
[08:23] Jayna
    and the clown returned
    to the side of the ruler.
[08:25] Jayna
    The tired old tale of a hero comes to an end,
[08:28] Jayna
    and unfolding in its place
    is an unprecedented tragedy.
[08:37] Lavian
    Those kids!
[08:46] Jayna
    A sandcastle that crumbles
    away with one touch...
[08:49] Jayna
    With the sacrifice of the young sparrows,
    the puppets' lives will come to an end.
[08:53] Lavian
    What did you just say?!
[08:56] Jayna
    If you make the rookies fall,
    the archaisms will all come to a stop.
[09:01] Lavian
    No way!
[09:03] Jayna
    All you have to do is break their footing.
[09:06] Jayna
    If you don't, this place
    will eventually fall apart,
[09:08] Jayna
    the puppets will endlessly
    increase in number,
[09:10] Jayna
    and the chaos will continue forever
    and become everyday.
[09:15] Jayna
    The rookies will lose their lives either way.
    Hurry up and put them to good use.
[09:20] Lavian
    I'm not falling for your lies!
[09:22] Jayna
    I'm not lying.
[09:24] Jayna
    The archaisms will stop.
[09:26] Jayna
    And that will beckon in a new curse
    that will plague this country!
[09:31] Jayna
    Awaiting the sparrows' fall is a curse crest
    that can change the script of this play.
[09:38] Jayna
    There are two possible scenarios.
[09:41] Jayna
    The silver curse is a blight
    on the lives of North Ambria.
[09:45] Jayna
    All children born in this land
    will be possessed by evil spirits.
[09:52] Jayna
    The golden curse is a blight
    on the soil of North Ambria.
[09:56] Jayna
    The gates of Gehenna will open,
    and the lands will overflow with evil monsters.
[10:01] Jayna
    The moment the rookies fall,
[10:04] Jayna
    whichever color the curse pattern
    takes will decide the future.
[10:07] Jayna
    No matter how you struggle,
    only tragedy awaits.
[10:11] Jayna
    See? Isn't it lovely?
[10:15] Campanella
    You weren't even all that useful,
    so at least don't ruin things.
[10:21] Rogan
    What do you mean?
[10:22] Campanella
    The more the Northern Jaegers
    increased tensions,
[10:26] Campanella
    the less attention we would draw
    from the Imperial government.
[10:29] Campanella
    And here I thought you'd
    do perfectly, Aurora boy.
[10:33] Rogan
    So you used North Ambria as cover?!
[10:38] Campanella
    What's the problem? This country
    will cease to exist soon.
[10:42] Campanella
    We didn't hesitate to use you
    to further our plans.
[10:48] Rogan
    Screw you!
[10:59] Campanella
    Oh, boy.
[11:01] Campanella
    There goes that data.
[11:04] Campanella
    Well, not bad, for you.
[11:09] Campanella
    I'll take my leave now.
[11:11] Campanella
    I hope you survive, boy.
[11:15] Rogan
    Don't you dare mess with
    the Aurora Phenomenon!
[11:31] Civilian
    Feena!
[11:41] Iseria
    This isn't good...
[11:43] Lavian
    Possessed by evil?!
[11:45] Lavian
    Overflowing with monsters?!
[11:46] Lavian
    Do you really think that's possible?!
[11:49] Jayna
    The results don't mean a thing to me,
[11:53] Jayna
    as long as I'm amused.
[11:55] Lavian
    You've gone mad!
[11:57] Jayna
    That's North Ambria.
[12:00] Jayna
    This portal will soon close.
[12:02] Jayna
    Hurry up and be part of the finale
    in this unprecedented tragedy.
[12:07] Jayna
    A fitting honor for the grandchild
    of a cursed hero, right?
[12:16] Rean
    I can't protect everyone like this!
[12:50] Jayna
    Are you enjoying this?
[13:24] Talion
    Need some help?
[13:27] Lavian
    Talion?
[13:31] Talion
    Do you want to continue our duel?
[13:34] Lavian
    Jayna told me...
[13:36] Lavian
    that the only way to stop
    the archaisms is to sacrifice the rookies.
[13:41] Lavian
    I can't do that.
[13:43] Talion
    So what will you do, then?
[13:45] Lavian
    Jayna tried to force me to choose what
    would happen after I sacrificed the recruits.
[13:50] Lavian
    But she didn't say what
    would happen if I saved them.
[13:52] Talion
    You want to stake it all on that?
[13:55] Lavian
    Help me.
[14:06] Rogan
    Why are you here?
[14:08] Marty
    It just means your luck hasn't run out!
[14:10] Marty
    Fight till the bitter end, Rog!
[14:14] Rogan
    How loud you are for someone
    fresh off the boat from the Empire!
[14:33] Talion
    Save the rookies
    by destroying this mechanism?
[14:36] Lavian
    It's getting in the way of saving the rookies.
[14:39] Lavian
    But destroying it without making
    the rookies fall is difficult.
[14:44] Lavian
    Both need to be done at the same time.
[14:46] Talion
    And you want me to do one part?
[14:48] Lavian
    Yeah.
[14:51] Talion
    That's not like you.
[14:53] Talion
    You're the kind to charge in without
    an explanation at times like these.
[14:59] Talion
    There were many times where things could
    have ended badly without your initiative.
[15:06] Talion
    I'll take that gamble, too.
[15:09] Talion
    Please tell me what you want to do.
[15:13] Lavian
    I'll destroy the mechanism.
[15:15] Lavian
    While I do that, you save all the rookies.
[15:22] Lavian
    I'm glad you came.
[15:25] Lavian
    I couldn't ask this of anyone else.
[15:28] Talion
    Isn't it my job to care about the stupid
    things, and do what you can't, Lavi?
[15:34] Talion
    It's a bit late for that.
[15:37] Lavian
    I leave it to you, Tally.
[15:40] Talion
    Yes.
[15:41] Talion
    Starting the countdown.
[15:44] Talion
    Drei.
[15:45] Lavian
    Zwei.
[15:47] Talion
    Eins!
[15:48] Laviantalion
    Null!
[15:54] Lavian
    I won't miss this time.
[16:02] Talion
    Lavi!
[16:24] Talion
    We made it back, and with the whole
    gang together, too.
[16:28] Lavian
    Yeah.
[16:30] Talion
    You're unharmed,
    even after taking a direct hit...
[16:33] Talion
    How in the world did you do it?
[16:36] Lavian
    This thing took the hit for me.
[16:47] Talion
    Looks like it was the blood of
    a hero that won out, not the curse.
[16:53] Lavian
    That's not it.
[16:59] Aide2
    The Empire's Soldat unit
    has entered the city.
[17:02] Aide2
    It's heading here to the Legislative Palace.
[17:04] Rogan
    I'm letting the Empire take North Ambria,
    without being able to do anything for the country?
[17:10] Marty
    It ain't like you.
[17:13] Marty
    I thought you could always find
    the silver lining in everything.
[17:17] Marty
    Rog, the world is full of leaders
    of vanquished nations.
[17:22] Marty
    It beats someone who came crawling
    back after working for the enemy.
[17:27] Rogan
    That's true.
[17:28] Rogan
    I haven't stooped as low
    as some lost causes I know.
[17:33] Rogan
    I'll leave this land and build up a war front.
[17:37] Jaeger
    I'll go with you, Commander!
[17:39] Jaeger
    Let's take back our homeland one day.
[17:41] Jaeger
    I'll deflect the Empire's attention.
[17:44] Rogan
    Thank you.
[17:45] Jaeger
    Don't mention it.
[17:47] Jaeger
    My heart is always by
    North Ambria's side and yours.
[17:55] Marty
    Live strong.
[17:58] Rogan
    Right back at you.
[18:05] Lavian
    He left?
[18:06] Marty
    Yeah.
[18:08] Marty
    Oh?
[18:14] Talion
    What was that for, Supervisor?!
[18:16] Marty
    That's a good look on your face.
[18:18] Iseria
    Ah! Found you!
[18:20] Marty
    Oh, I hope she's gotten a bit more girly—
[18:22] Iseria
    I see Tally, too!
[18:24] Iseria
    Say, why were you riding that Soldat?
[18:26] Iseria
    Is that an Imperial uniform?!
[18:26] Marty
    Wait, she hasn't changed one bit!
[18:27] Iseria
    You were with the Empire's
    hero, right?! Why? Why?!
[18:29] Marty
    H-Hey! Calm down!
[18:29] Iseria
    I've got so many questions!
[18:31] Iseria
    Hey, Marty, where are you going?!
[18:36] Aurelia
    The Northern Jaegers,
    who occupied the Legislative Palace
[18:39] Aurelia
    and incited all kinds of violence,
    have surrendered to us.
[18:45] Aurelia
    The Imperial government will spare no
    expense to support post-war efforts.
[18:50] Aurelia
    We request full cooperation
    from the civilians, as well.
SIGN    A Few Days Later
[18:55] Railway
    All right, all right!
SIGN    A Few Days Later
[18:58] Railway
    Still okay! All right, all right!
[19:01] Railway
    Okay, keep going!
[19:04] Lavian
    I heard you were unconscious for several days.
[19:07] Rean
    I'm not back to my best yet, but I'm okay now.
[19:10] Lavian
    Oh.
[19:12] Lavian
    You really saved us. You have my thanks.
[19:14] Rean
    Nah, I'm just glad we're both safe.
[19:17] Lavian
    Yeah.
[19:18] Lavian
    Though North Ambria has it
    rough from here on out.
[19:25] Rean
    What will you do next?
[19:28] Lavian
    I haven't decided yet.
[19:30] Lavian
    But for now, I'll be
    looking after my students.
[19:33] Rean
    Students?
[19:34] Lavian
    Rookies who I've taught in the past.
[19:37] Rean
    Oh? It's amazing that you're
    an instructor at your age.
[19:41] Lavian
    I'm sure you'd be better suited for it.
[19:43] Rean
    Huh?
[19:45] Lavian
    You're kind-hearted enough to
    risk your life for an enemy.
[19:48] Lavian
    Something I could never do.
[19:52] Rean
    Oh, that's right.
[19:53] Rean
    Thanks for this.
[19:55] Lavian
    Sure.
[19:56] Rean
    A present from your family?
[19:58] Lavian
    Huh?
[19:59] Rean
    I thought it was, from
    the embroidery on the back.
[20:06] Lavian
    Mom...
[20:08] Rean
    I'm not that different from you.
[20:12] Rean
    At first, I just wanted to
    protect my family and my friends.
[20:17] Rean
    But before I knew it, people were
    calling me the Empire's hero.
[20:22] Rean
    While fighting for North Ambria,
[20:25] Rean
    I'm sure you became a hero
    to someone else, too.
SIGN    Rean, it's time for us to depart.
[20:32] Rean
    Gotcha. I'll be right there.
[20:34] Rean
    See you again, then.
[20:37] Lavian
    And I never want to see you again.
[20:41] Lavian
    But if there's something
    we both want to protect,
[20:44] Lavian
    it's possible we'll meet again.
[20:47] Rean
    That's right.
[20:54] Vlad
    ...all of us are heroes deep down.
[20:59] Lavian
    Me, a hero?
[21:02] Lavian
    I see.
[21:06] Lavian
    November, Septian Calendar 1205.
[21:10] Lavian
    North Ambria formally
    became a part of the Empire.
[21:15] Lavian
    The scars left behind from war
    were significant,
[21:20] Lavian
    but the people have begun to rebuild.
[21:24] Lavian
    These events have made me see a lot of things.
[21:29] Lavian
    I'd thought that "hero" was
    a title for the chosen ones.
[21:34] Lavian
    But in reality,
[21:36] Lavian
    through their actions and their will,
[21:40] Lavian
    anyone can become a hero to someone else.
[21:43] Lavian
    Grandpa and Rean didn't
    start out as heroes, either.
[21:49] Lavian
    I'm sure a lot will happen
    in Zemuria in the future.
[21:53] Lavian
    And each time, new heroes will be born.
[21:58] Lavian
    I want to follow in the trails
    that those heroes blaze.
[22:06] Lavian
    I don't know yet what sights
    await me along the way.
[22:16] Lavian
    But if I use my own legs to
    walk and take everything in,
[22:21] Lavian
    I think I'll be able to see
    more clearly than I do now.
[22:29] Talion
    Goodbye, then.
[22:31] Lavian
    Yeah, see you.
[22:33] Lavian
    I'll keep moving forward with all I've got,
[22:37] Lavian
    so I can return to my homeland
    filled with pride.
[22:40] Lavian
    And...
[22:40] Ivano
    Hey, Lavi!
[22:42] Ivano
    You're leaving on a journey? That's awesome!
[22:46] Tak
    That's all you ever say!
[22:48] Ivano
    Really? Take us with you!
[22:50] Ivano
    Oh, Lavi the Great!
    Wildest thing in Zemuria! Rookie!
[22:53] Tak
    What? Those aren't compliments!
[22:55] Tak
    Really?
[22:56] Lavian
    Get lost.
[22:56] Ivano
    What?!
[22:58] Ivano
    Don't say that!
[23:00] Tak
    I want to see the outside world, too.
[23:00] Lavian
    So that I can blaze my own trails someday.
[23:02] Lavian
    Don't care.
[23:03] Ivano/Tak
    Lavi, please!
SIGN    Indeed, we are homunculi. Artificially created beings.

    when we had next to nothing!
[23:13] Aurelia
    Don't misunderstand, nameless jaegers.
    This is not your place to die.
SIGN    We became government soldiers to defend a dying army.
[23:23] Rean
    No, of course not. I'm the one who started
    all this, so I have to see it through.
[23:27] Rean
    Let's be the flashing blade
    that illuminates the darkness.
SIGN    A hero is what he does, and what he wills.
