SIGN    Memories Burning Crimson
SIGN    Market Town Celdic
    Kreuzen Province, Erebonian Empire
[02:23] Iseria
    We're here!
[02:25] Lechter
    Welcome. I've been expecting you guys.
[02:28] Lechter
    I'm a captain with the Imperial
    Army's Intelligence Division...
[02:32] Lechter
    The name's Lechter Arundel.
[02:35] Marty
    What do you want?
[02:37] Marty
    We just got off here to take our next train.
[02:40] Lechter
    Oh, I've taken the liberty
    to book your next train for you.
[02:43] Lechter
    I'd like to take you back
    to the capital, you see.
[02:45] Iseria
    Seriously? We get to go to Heimdallr again?!
[02:48] Iseria
    I missed out on Layton Crepes
    last time, so that's great!
[02:52] Talion
    We're just tourists here to sightsee.
[02:55] Talion
    I don't get why someone so
    important would want to invite us.
[02:57] Lechter
    Wow, how humble of you.
[03:00] Lechter
    The Northern Jaegers have
    a big reputation in this country.
[03:05] Lechter
    Of course, it's 100 percent
    a bad rep, though.
[03:08] Talion
    Do we really look that suspicious?
[03:11] Lechter
    Hey, time to play, missies!
[03:14] Millium
    Yay!
[03:16] Iseria
    Wow, she's kinda cute.
SIGN    Lying won't get you anywhere.
SIGN    Lavi, the doll you had
SIGN    had a design peculiar to North Ambria.
[03:30] Lechter
    So you're the one
    who's met our Black Rabbit.
[03:35] Lechter
    Iseria Frost, Talion Drake...
[03:39] Lechter
    You snuck into the Empire
    on a recon mission.
[03:44] Lechter
    We know all about it.
[03:46] Iseria
    Yikes, you took pics without permission?!
[03:47] Lechter
    And Martin S. Robinson,
    supervisor of the youth jaeger squad, huh?
[03:54] Lechter
    For someone who took part
    in the razing of Celdic,
[03:58] Lechter
    you sure ended up in a cushy post.
[04:02] Talion
    Razing?
[04:04] Lechter
    You don't know?
[04:06] Lechter
    I doubt the Northern Jaegers even went
    to the trouble of covering it up.
[04:10] Lechter
    Duke Albarea, in order
    to punish the citizens,
[04:14] Lechter
    hired the Northern Jaegers
    and set fire to the whole town.
[04:17] Lechter
    A great many innocent civilians
    were wounded or even killed.
[04:24] Talion
    And he was part of it?
[04:27] Talion
    It can't be!
[04:36] Rufus
    Come in.
[04:41] Claire
    Excuse me.
[04:43] Rufus
    I've been waiting for you.
[04:45] Rufus
    Good work as special instructor
    for the military police, Captain Claire.
[04:51] Claire
    Thank you very much, Governor General.
[04:53] Rufus
    As I believe you've already heard,
[04:55] Rufus
    we need you to return to the capital
    and work under Chancellor Osborne.
[05:02] Rufus
    Trouble is brewing up north.
[05:06] Claire
    It seems likely to be a drawn-out battle.
[05:08] Rufus
    Indeed.
[05:10] Rufus
    If you need any advice, I'm always here.
[05:15] Claire
    In that case, I would like some advice now.
[05:20] Rufus
    What is it?
[05:22] Rufus
    Governor General, how would you play
    your cards against North Ambria?
[05:28] Rufus
    The answer to that is extremely simple.
    You must have a good idea yourself.
[05:36] Claire
    So you would use
    the razing of Celdic, after all?
[05:39] Rufus
    Indeed.
[05:41] Rufus
    Regardless of how or why it happened,
[05:43] Rufus
    it's a fact that the Northern Jaegers
    took the lives of Imperial citizens.
[05:48] Rufus
    We must make their country
    atone for their misdeeds.
SIGN    There's no doubt that he was
SIGN    one of the Northern Jaegers who took part in the razing.
[05:58] Millium
    Tilly was spying on Duke Albarea, after all!
SIGN    All of that is confirmed intel.
SIGN    However, everything about Lavi still remains mere speculation.
[06:11] Lechter
    No, I've dug up the dirt on her.
[06:15] Lechter
    The man who co-founded the Northern
    Jaegers with Colonel Valestein,
[06:19] Lechter
    one of the heroes who saved North Ambria,
[06:22] Lechter
    Vlad Winslet, is her grandfather.
[06:25] Lechter
    Isn't that right, Lavian Winslet?
[06:31] Lechter
    Wow. I didn't expect your
    reaction to be so obvious.
[06:36] Iseria
    What the heck?
[06:38] Talion
    It must be some kind of joke.
[06:40] Lechter
    There we have our confirmation.
[06:43] Lechter
    You've got some real special
    people working for ya.
[06:46] Lavian
    I already... with Grandpa—
[06:50] Lavian
    I mean, Vlad.
[06:51] Lechter
    Oh! Say no more.
[06:55] Lechter
    Anyway, the Northern Jaegers have returned
    to this fateful town, Celdic.
[07:00] Lechter
    The Empire can't really ignore this, can we?
[07:04] Lechter
    I don't want any trouble.
    Quietly come with us.
[07:09] Marty
    And what if we refuse?
[07:11] Lechter
    Restrain these four. Oh, but be courteous.
[07:14] Millium
    Okay!
SIGN    Roger that.
[07:18] Talion
    Wh-What is that?!
[07:20] Iseria
    Two of them!
SIGN    Search mode.
SIGN    Analysis complete.
SIGN    A pair of guns and daggers each in her vest.
SIGN    No clear signs of armor.
[07:32] Millium
    Thanks, Tilly! Sammy!
SIGN    Stop calling us that.
[07:36] Lechter
    Don't go overboard, Millium.
[07:39] Millium
    Roger that.
[07:40] Millium
    Take it easy and...
[07:42] Millium
    Let's do this, Lammy!
[07:49] Marty
    Lavi!
[07:50] Marty
    There are civilians!
[07:52] Millium
    Ah! Why, you... get back here!
[08:01] Millium
    One, two...
[08:01] Marty
    Come on...
[08:02] Marty
    Are you trying to destroy the house?!
[08:04] Millium
    Whoa.
[08:05] Marty
    Good girl!
SIGN    You were told not to go overboard.
[08:10] Millium
    I know, I know.
[08:12] Millium
    But I get so worked up fighting Northern Jaegers.
[08:15] Marty
    That's her taking it easy?
    You're kidding me.
[08:19] Iseria
    Not cute! She's crazy!
[08:22] Talion
    Lavi...
[08:25] Millium
    Watch out!
[08:27] Millium
    Ow!
[08:28] Millium
    Ouch... Sorry, I messed up my support.
SIGN    Please try to stay out of my way.
[08:35] Marty
    Their teamwork's all over the place.
[08:38] Marty
    Listen up.
[08:40] Millium
    How about we do this, then?
[08:41] Millium
    If a target runs to the left, they're yours.
[08:44] Millium
    And if they run to the right...
SIGN    They've already dispersed.
[08:46] Millium
    Huh?
[08:46] Millium
    Oh...
[08:48] Millium
    Ah! They're getting away!
[08:50] Millium
    Ow!
SIGN    Like I said...
[08:51] Lechter
    Hey, calm down!
[08:53] Soldiers
    You there!
[08:55] Soldiers
    What's going on?!
[08:56] Lechter
    Tch, provincial soldiers? Fine.
[08:58] Lechter
    You two know what our
    top priority is, right?
[09:01] Lechter
    Go get 'em!
[09:05] Millium
    You're not getting away!
[09:07] Millium
    Lammy Jump!
[09:19] Millium
    Sorry, but we're gonna catch you!
SIGN    Resistance is futile.
[09:25] Lavian
    Right on time.
[09:34] Millium
    Wait, there's a...
[09:42] Millium
    Tilly...
[09:43] Millium
    You tend to go overboard too, don't you?
SIGN    I was simply following orders.
[10:03] Lavian
    I've lost them.
[10:04] Lavian
    Heading to rendezvous point.
SIGN    December 24th, S. 1204
SIGN    December 24th, S. 1204
SIGN    Lunaria Nature Park
[10:47] Iseria
    Ria's here!
[10:50] Iseria
    The other two will be here soon, too.
[10:55] Marty
    Relaxed as ever, I see.
[11:03] Iseria
    Who were those people?
[11:07] Marty
    Ironbloods.
[11:09] Marty
    Have you heard of them?
[11:10] Lavian
    Only the name.
[11:12] Marty
    Osborne, the highest appointed
    authority of the Imperial government...
[11:15] Marty
    Kids with special talents personally
    recruited by the Blood and Iron Chancellor.
[11:23] Lavian
    Special talents?
[11:25] Marty
    One famous example is the
    Railway Military Police's Claire Rieveldt,
[11:30] Marty
    also known as the Icy Maiden.
[11:32] Iseria
    Please don't tell me she has
    an absolute-zero smile, too.
[11:36] Iseria
    One of those hags is more than enough.
[11:39] Marty
    I'll let Jayna know when I see her.
[11:41] Iseria
    I'm kidding! Please don't!
[11:43] Marty
    And that guy who called himself Lechter?
[11:46] Marty
    He's also known as Scarecrow,
    a vital part of the Intelligence Division.
[11:51] Talion
    Of course you would have all
    this information about them.
[11:55] Marty
    Beating around the bush, are we?
[12:00] Marty
    I know.
[12:02] Marty
    It's about the razing, right?
[12:05] Talion
    Is it...
[12:07] Marty
    Well, yeah... it's true.
[12:12] Talion
    Did Celdic do anything to deserve it?
[12:14] Talion
    Were they planning
    something bad, for instance?
[12:17] Marty
    Not really.
[12:19] Marty
    It was simply to make
    an example out of them.
[12:22] Talion
    An example, is it?
[12:27] Iseria
    Jeez, come on, Tally.
[12:30] Iseria
    Why are you letting it bother you?
[12:32] Iseria
    Like, I mean...
[12:33] Iseria
    Being a Northern Jaeger also
    involves messed up work like that.
[12:39] Talion
    I know.
[12:41] Talion
    If I received a mission like that,
    I'd have to accept, too.
[12:45] Talion
    But...
[12:47] Marty
    Sometimes, you just need people
    to do the dirty work...
[12:51] Marty
    If a poor nation surrounded
    by superpowers has to survive, that is.
[12:57] Talion
    That just sounds like an excuse
    to justify what you did.
[13:03] Marty
    Say what you want.
[13:05] Marty
    It's your privilege as young'uns
    to talk about naive ideals like that.
[13:10] Talion
    Have you never thought about it?!
[13:12] Talion
    About whether it's right
    to keep living like this,
[13:14] Talion
    or about your future goals?!
[13:17] Marty
    What I think is none of your business.
[13:21] Marty
    Do you want me to cry and moan
    about this shitty status quo with you?
[13:27] Talion
    I mean...
[13:29] Marty
    If you're lashing out like that,
    I guess you have a goal of your own?
[13:34] Talion
    Vaguely, yes.
[13:37] Marty
    Then it's your job to accomplish it.
[13:41] Talion
    But I don't know
    if it's the right path to take.
[13:44] Marty
    Are you stupid?
[13:47] Marty
    Only the result determines
    whether something's right or not.
[13:50] Marty
    Those who stick to their beliefs all the way
[13:53] Marty
    get called heroes in the history books.
[13:58] Marty
    That's how it works.
[14:03] Rogan
    Wait and see, wait and see...
SIGN    North Ambria State
    Legislative Palace - Glark's Office
[14:07] Rogan
    All you ever do is insist we wait and see.
[14:11] Rogan
    Do you realize how much time
    we've wasted because of you?
[14:16] Rogan
    Ever since the annexation of Crossbell,
[14:18] Rogan
    the masses have lived trembling
    in fear of an Imperial invasion.
[14:23] Rogan
    Have their voices not reached your ears?
[14:26] Jayna
    Were you not the one to incite that fear
    in them in the first place, Rogan?
[14:34] Rogan
    So long as the politicians who can
    only kowtow to the Empire hold power,
[14:41] Rogan
    this country will forever
    be stuck in the past.
[14:45] Rogan
    And the one tolerating this
    and letting them run things...
[14:52] Rogan
    Is that not you, Glark?
[14:59] Rogan
    You could've avoided embarrassing yourself
    in your old age, like the other two who died.
[15:05] Rogan
    You're now nothing more than
    an old tree waiting to wither away.
[15:10] Jayna
    Do you really think you can provoke
    Master Glark into acting in a rage?
[15:17] Glark
    I'll admit I'm an old tree,
[15:20] Glark
    but I haven't withered so much
[15:22] Glark
    that I would burn up
    from such obvious provocations.
[15:27] Glark
    I see things better than you, at least.
[15:32] Rogan
    Is that so?
[15:33] Rogan
    Then you should be able to see
    the current state of the jaegers.
[15:38] Rogan
    If that hero attacks now,
    we won't stand a chance.
[15:43] Rogan
    The time for waiting
    and seeing has long passed!
[15:49] Glark
    There, there.
[15:52] Glark
    How do we attack?
[15:56] Glark
    Be it resources, military power,
    or this mysterious hero of the Empire,
[16:02] Glark
    in no aspect do we have any
    assurance of coming out ahead.
[16:07] Glark
    If you still insist on acting,
    how do we attack, and how do we win?
[16:13] Glark
    What is your strategy?
[16:15] Rogan
    Currently, the Northern Jaegers can do
    no more than cause some panic in the Empire.
[16:23] Rogan
    However, if we consolidate all our forces,
[16:27] Rogan
    focus on breaking through
    their most critical base,
[16:30] Rogan
    and force them into a short,
    decisive battle...
[16:34] Glark
    Ridiculous. Positively absurd.
[16:37] Glark
    Well, we could consider it
    if the Northern Jaegers were united,
[16:44] Glark
    but who could possibly listen to
    the fool who's trying to destroy any unity?
[16:54] Rogan
    I see you're as good
    at shifting responsibility as ever.
[16:58] Rogan
    I take back what I said.
[17:00] Rogan
    You certainly haven't withered yet.
[17:02] Rogan
    You're still honing your old wiles in
    a bid to cling to your position of power.
[17:07] Rogan
    I wish Valestein and Vlad
    could see what you've become.
[17:12] Glark
    I'm sure they would be pleased.
[17:15] Glark
    I dismiss the provocations of a reckless fool
    and continue to protect North Ambria.
[17:21] Glark
    They'd say the hero's alive and well.
[17:24] Rogan
    Nonsense!
[17:25] Rogan
    It seems we can no longer see eye to eye.
[17:30] Rogan
    It's a crying shame,
[17:31] Rogan
    fallen hero.
[17:35] Glark
    It's none of your concern.
[17:39] Glark
    The wheels are already in motion,
    and you are blind to it.
[17:49] Iseria
    Say, mind if I ask?
[17:53] Iseria
    Were those guys for real earlier?
[17:56] Iseria
    They said you're the hero Vlad's...
[17:58] Lavi
    Shut up.
[17:59] Iseria
    Okay, I guess that struck a nerve.
[18:01] Marty
    You can't change the truth.
[18:04] Marty
    No point denying it.
[18:07] Talion
    How long have you known?
[18:09] Marty
    Well, as her superior I could
    easily find out whenever I wanted.
[18:14] Marty
    But whether I knew or not, it was...
[18:15] Lavian
    None of your business.
[18:18] Marty
    But the enemy finding out changes things.
[18:23] Marty
    They're after her lineage to use
    as a convenient trump card.
[18:28] Marty
    It was obvious from their
    actions at the station.
[18:32] Lavian
    My lineage? It doesn't mean anything!
[18:35] Talion
    It doesn't matter what you think.
[18:38] Talion
    Whether it's worth using is
    for the enemy to decide.
[18:43] Iseria
    In that case, you can just use it
    to your own advantage!
[18:46] Iseria
    Before they try and use...
[18:50] Iseria
    Oh, don't mind me.
[18:53] Marty
    That might be a better idea than you think.
[18:57] Marty
    Isn't it time you faced the music,
    instead of looking away like you always have?
[19:02] Marty
    If you've found a goal of your own
    like Talion, that is.
[19:10] Iseria
    No way!
[19:11] Iseria
    Again?!
[19:12] Millium
    Found you!
[19:15] Marty
    Run into the forest!
[19:18] Lechter
    You can be a bit rough with them.
[19:21] Lechter
    Don't mess up this time.
[19:23] Millium
    Okay, here we go!
[19:31] Marty
    You have it, right?
[19:39] Millium
    Found you!
SIGN    A flash grenade!
[19:43] Millium
    I'm seeing stars!
[19:57] Marty
    I'll distract them. Take that chance to run.
[20:00] Talion
    But...
[20:01] Lavian
    Screw that. I'll go.
[20:04] Marty
    Just do what I say!
[20:06] Marty
    Do you wanna end up like me?
[20:08] Marty
    Accepting any and all orders,
    even if they're dirty work,
[20:10] Marty
    I let others decide my life for me!
[20:12] Marty
    Are you gonna live like that, too?!
[20:16] Marty
    You guys are different, aren't you?!
[20:18] Marty
    So let me expect great things from you!
[20:21] Marty
    Let me protect you!
[20:23] Marty
    And let me do something I wanna do!
[20:29] Millium
    Where'd they go?
[20:32] Marty
    This way, you brats.
[20:34] Millium
    Ah! This time...
SIGN    You're not getting away.
[20:51] Iseria
    We gotta keep moving!
[21:01] Marty
    This is it for me, huh?
[21:03] Lechter
    I'm impressed.
[21:05] Lechter
    You've got guts, trying to take
    these two on by yourself.
[21:08] Lechter
    You even acted as a decoy
    to let your men escape.
[21:12] Lechter
    How touching.
[21:15] Marty
    Sucks to be you.
    You let your favorite get away.
[21:18] Lechter
    I don't know about that.
    Betting on the dark horse is thrilling, too.
[21:23] Lechter
    It's great in its own way.
[21:38] Marty
    Just do what I say!
[21:39] Marty
    Do you wanna end up like me?
[21:42] Marty
    You guys are different, aren't you?!
[21:46] Marty
    Isn't it time you faced the music...
[21:48] Marty
    If you've found a goal of your own...
[22:01] Lavian
    A goal of my own?
[22:05] Lavian
    What I wanna do?
