[00:02] Yuki
    This is a tale of a girl born
    on a planet far, far away.
[00:25] Joshua
    I was wondering where
    I might find you, Princess Yuki.
[00:32] Yuki
    Joshua!
[00:33] Joshua
    The time has come.
    You should begin the preparations.
[00:41] Joshua
    Ow!
[00:41] Yuki
    Quit acting all cool. It's not like you.
[00:44] Yuki
    Don't tell me you're nervous.
[00:46] Joshua
    I beg your pardon.
[00:48] Joshua
    It's not like you to be scared, either!
[00:52] Yuki
    H-How rude!
[00:54] Yuki
    I'm not the slightest bit nervous...
[00:57] Joshua
    Don't worry.
[00:59] Joshua
    Miss Layla and I will be with you.
[01:01] Joshua
    Right?
[01:03] Yuki
    Yes!
[01:09] Joshua
    You sure have grown, Yuki.
[01:12] Yuki
    Thank you.
[01:14] Yuki
    You're still really short, though, Joshua.
[01:17] Yuki
    Even though you're 15,
[01:18] Yuki
    you should be all grown up, right?
[01:20] Joshua
    Yeah, yeah.
[01:21] Joshua
    If you can still insult me
    like that, you must be fine.
[01:43] Layla
    Magnificent.
[01:45] Layla
    You've memorized the words
    of the ceremony, then?
[01:48] Yuki
    Y-Yes, Miss Layla!
[01:51] Layla
    Good. Then let us proceed.
[02:24] Joshua
    Were you injured, Princess Yuki?
[02:27] Yuki
    N-No! I'm fine.
[02:31] Yuki
    I'm totally—
[02:36] Yuki
    Th-Thank you...
[02:42] Yuki
    Um... U-Um...
[02:45] Joshua
    Passion and will, Yuki.
[02:49] Joshua
    Everyone's waiting to hear from you.
[02:51] Joshua
    Go on and nail it.
[02:59] Yuki
    People of the Special State of Hariant,
    home of our royal family.
[03:03] Yuki
    I am grateful that you all
    came here for me today.
[03:09] Yuki
    I have turned twelve years old today.
[03:13] Yuki
    I vow to assume more responsibility
[03:16] Yuki
    and guide you all to ever greater prosperity!
[03:29] Yuki
    Kingdom of Soleil, be eternal!
[03:32] All
    Be eternal!
[03:41] Layla
    It was a questionable start,
    but you recovered well.
[03:45] Layla
    Well done, Your Highness.
[03:49] Yuki
    Thank you, everyone!
SIGN    The Girl From Soleil
[03:55] News
    And now, our next story.
[03:57] News
    The government has announced that
    a new kind of chrars in development
[04:00] News
    has reached the practical utility stage.
[04:05] Court
    Princess Yuki, happy birthday.
[04:08] Court
    To celebrate your special day.
[04:10] Yuki
    Yes, I leave it in your hands.
[04:13] Court
    Princess Yuki.
[04:14] Court
    Princess Yuki.
[04:15] Court
    Princess Yuki.
[04:17] Yuki
    In your hands!
[04:18] Yuki
    In your hands!
[04:19] Yuki
    In your hands!
[04:20] Yuki
    In your hands!
[04:21] Yuki
    In your hands!
[04:23] Yuki
    I'm exhausted!
[04:24] Joshua
    Things certainly seem more
    prosperous this year.
[04:28] Layla
    They've likely heard the rumors
    of the new chrars,
[04:31] Layla
    and are all eager to
    get it for their own domain.
[04:36] Joshua
    A new chrars?
[04:39] Yuki
    Then why don't we send each
    of them a little sample?
[04:42] Yuki
    Is it ready for that yet, Miss Layla?
[04:44] Layla
    Its development status was in
    the report compiled by Advisor Izana.
[04:49] Yuki
    I-I couldn't finish it...
[04:51] Yuki
    I was just so focused on my
    speech for the ceremony...
[04:54] Layla
    I will no longer treat you as a child.
[04:57] Layla
    From now on, you must earnestly
    engage in the business of rule.
[05:02] Yuki
    What's this?
[05:03] Layla
    Today's assignments.
[05:05] Layla
    Revised budget for the term, drafts of
    legislative revisions, and related materials.
[05:11] Layla
    Look through all of them by this evening,
    and mark them approved.
[05:13] Yuki
    No way! My fingerprint will be worn off!
[05:16] Layla
    And as of this afternoon,
    you'll be participating in parliament.
[05:18] Layla
    Please finish your lunch by two o'clock.
[05:23] Joshua
    C-C'mon, Miss Layla's only thinking of you...
[05:27] Yuki
    Joshua!
[05:30] Joshua
    Seriously, Yuki?
[05:32] Yuki
    Indulge me! We'll be back with time to spare!
[05:46] Yuki
    Father, Mother...
[05:49] Yuki
    Are you watching me?
[05:51] Yuki
    I'm twelve years old now.
[05:54] Yuki
    I'm all grown up, see?
[05:55] Yuki
    So don't worry about anything.
[05:57] Yuki
    I'm going to do this right.
[05:59] Yuki
    I'll see my princess duties
    through and make you proud.
[06:07] Yuki
    So please, watch over me from heaven!
[06:12] Joshua
    I'll be here to keep Princess Yuki safe.
[06:17] Kid
    Huh?
[06:18] Kid
    Hey, that lady looks like Princess Yuki!
[06:21] Kid
    Let's go look!
[06:23] Kid
    Yeah!
[06:24] Joshua
    That's not good!
[06:25] Joshua
    We have to leave!
[06:37] Joshua
    Hold perfectly still. Don't move.
[06:43] Joshua
    They're gone.
[06:45] Yuki
    Y-Yeah...
[06:47] Joshua
    Okay, let's get back to the palace—
[06:49] Voice
    Your opponent is requesting a match.
[06:51] Voice
    Will you join the battle?
[06:54] Yuki
    A theurgear game?
[06:55] Joshua
    Looks like it. Let's go.
[06:57] Voice
    Beat ten opponents in a row and win a prize.
[07:00] Yuki
    Joshua!
[07:02] Yuki
    Please!
[07:04] Spectator
    This one's pretty good.
[07:06] Spectator
    He's almost to nine in a row!
[07:10] Joshua
    Passion and will!
[07:11] Yuki
    Get 'em, Joshua!
[07:14] Harold
    He never does fight pretty, does he?
[07:16] Yuni
    And he calls himself a
    member of the Royal Order?
[07:22] Joshua
    Heck yeah!
[07:23] Joshua
    Just one more to go!
[07:25] Yuki
    Go get 'em, Joshua!
[07:27] Yuni
    Joshua Ingram of the Order.
[07:29] Yuni
    Lone son of the venerable Ingram family.
[07:33] Yuni
    You expect to protect Princess Yuki
    with such meager talents?
[07:38] Joshua
    Who are you?!
[07:38] Voice
    Fight!
[07:45] Harold
    So close, yet so far.
[07:51] Izana
    We have a last-minute change to the agenda.
[07:54] Izana
    Let us first examine the report from
    Grand Master Harold Miller of the Royal Order.
[07:59] Harold
    Secret talks with the Empire of Grandiga
[08:01] Harold
    took place three days ago
    near the Wister border.
[08:06] Yuki
    What did they have to say?
[08:09] Harold
    They seem amicable.
[08:11] Harold
    We should be able to renew
    the non-aggression pact without issue.
[08:16] Yuki
    Excellent work.
[08:17] Yuki
    Oh, right, Harold.
[08:19] Yuki
    Pass these on, won't you?
[08:22] Yuki
    They're the birthday presents
    everyone brought for me.
[08:26] Yuki
    Unlike our kingdom, I hear
    that the Empire has poor soil,
[08:30] Yuki
    and that the people there are struggling.
[08:34] Harold
    Indeed...
[08:35] Yuki
    Please offer them these gifts
    as a token of our friendship.
[08:39] Yuni
    If I may be so bold,
    could I make one comment?
[08:43] Yuki
    What is it?
[08:44] Yuni
    Your Highness, just what
    do you think the Empire is?
[08:49] Yuki
    They're our neighboring country.
[08:51] Yuki
    You're supposed to help your neighbors
    when they're struggling, aren't you?
[08:54] Yuki
    We need to get along.
[08:56] Yuni
    One more question, then.
[08:57] Yuni
    What do you think of
    the state of this country?
[09:02] Yuni
    The monarchy was adopted as a necessary evil
[09:05] Yuni
    when our ancestors first came to this planet.
[09:07] Yuni
    The environment was still
    unforgiving back then,
[09:09] Yuni
    and the people sought a symbol
    to give them strength.
[09:13] Yuni
    But now, we have strong roots in this world.
[09:18] Yuni
    The monarchy is a relic of the past.
[09:20] Yuni
    Some might say that
    it is no longer necessary.
[09:23] Yuni
    We will manage the negotiations
    with the Empire.
[09:26] Yuni
    Kindly stay quiet and let us do our jobs.
[09:28] Joshua
    You! How dare you insult the princess?!
[09:37] Yuki
    Who are you?
[09:39] Yuni
    Yuni Vanquish.
[09:40] Yuni
    I serve the margrave of the State of Wister.
[09:44] Yuki
    Yuni, I understand why
    you feel the way you do,
[09:48] Yuki
    but as a member of the royal family,
[09:51] Yuki
    and as the daughter of my
    late father and mother,
[09:53] Yuki
    there are things on which
    I will not compromise.
[09:56] Yuki
    I want to make everyone in this kingdom—
[09:58] Yuki
    to make everyone on this planet smile.
[10:01] Yuki
    To accomplish that, I think there
    must be things that only I can do.
[10:06] Yuni
    And what are those?
[10:07] Yuki
    Oh, I actually don't know yet!
[10:10] Yuki
    You'll help me think of them,
    won't you, Yuni?
[10:14] Yuki
    Hey, what kind of place
    is the State of Wister?
[10:18] Yuki
    I've never left the city!
[10:25] Yuni
    I respect your decision, Your Highness.
[10:30] Yuni
    I apologize for my insolence.
[10:32] Harold
    I must apologize,
[10:34] Harold
    and I ask that you forgive her, for my sake.
[10:36] Lune
    "Put Princess Yuki's character to the test."
[10:40] Lune
    That was the order we
    received from our master.
[10:44] Yuki
    Oh, it's no problem.
[10:47] Yuki
    Are you...
[10:48] Lune
    Indeed, I am Yuni's twin brother.
[10:51] Lune
    My name is Lune Vanquish.
[10:53] Lune
    I brought them to the
    capital at my discretion.
[10:56] Lune
    I believe their piloting skills are a
    match for any member of the Order.
[11:01] Yuki
    Isn't that just great, Joshua?
[11:04] Joshua
    Yes.
[11:09] Harold
    Don't you do anything besides work?
[11:12] Harold
    Come out with us for once.
[11:14] Harold
    You haven't paid a proper visit
    back home either, have you?
[11:17] Harold
    Think about your poor wife.
[11:18] Izana
    Don't worry about me.
[11:20] Izana
    You should focus on teaching
    your subordinates some manners.
[11:24] Harold
    Joshua wasn't happy, was he?
[11:28] Izana
    Of course he wasn't.
[11:29] Izana
    He and Princess Yuki practically
    grew up as brother and sister.
[11:34] Izana
    They both lost their parents, too.
[11:38] Izana
    Twelve years ago,
[11:39] Izana
    while developing the new chrars.
[11:42] Izana
    That incident...
[11:44] Izana
    The energy source which makes our
    civilization possible, chrarslapis,
[11:48] Izana
    is a special ore that can
    only be found on this planet.
[11:51] Izana
    The dedication of the late royal
    couple to keep their people fed
[11:56] Izana
    led to attempts to develop more
    efficient forms of chrars.
[11:59] Izana
    But...
[12:01] Harold
    It's ironic.
[12:02] Harold
    That hope of theirs was
    the death of both of them.
[12:06] Izana
    Listen, about Joshua...
[12:09] Harold
    He won't listen to anything I say.
[12:12] Harold
    I can't stop him.
[12:13] Izana
    Harold.
[12:14] Harold
    I'll fulfill my duty.
[12:18] Harold
    What about you?
[12:21] Harold
    How many of the new chrars can
    you prepare before we head out?
[12:25] Izana
    Three.
[12:26] Izana
    I'll have them sent
    the minute they're finished.
[12:29] Yuni
    What do you want?
[12:31] Joshua
    You insulted the princess—insulted Yuki.
[12:35] Joshua
    I'm going to make you pay!
[12:45] Layla
    I win.
[12:48] Layla
    Please try a bit harder next time.
[12:50] Layla
    Chess is an excellent way to
    nurture strategic thinking.
[12:53] Yuki
    Is that something I need?
[12:55] Layla
    You are technically
    the ruler of this country.
[12:58] Layla
    Everything you learn will
    help you in that cause.
[13:02] Yuki
    Yeah, yeah...
[13:04] Izana
    Princess Yuki.
[13:09] Yuni
    Two against one?
[13:10] Yuni
    You must not think very highly of us.
[13:12] Lune
    Let's use capture the flag rules.
[13:14] Joshua
    Bring it on.
[13:17] Yuki
    A duel?
[13:18] Yuki
    Did Joshua make the challenge?
[13:20] Izana
    Yes.
[13:21] Izana
    It's merely a mock battle in the simulator.
[13:23] Izana
    It's part of their training, but...
[13:26] Yuki
    But why would he do that?
[13:31] Harold
    Good morning.
[13:32] Harold
    We've prepared you a front
    row seat, Your Highness.
[13:42] Yuki
    Joshua...
[13:45] Joshua
    If anyone hurts Yuki, I'll make them pay!
[13:49] Yuki
    He's doing this for me?
[13:51] Yuni
    Don't come crying to me later
    if you don't like the result.
[13:54] Voice
    Now displaying battlefield.
[13:56] Yuki
    To...
[13:58] Layla
    "Tokyo." A city located on our old homeworld.
[14:03] Yuki
    It's all blocky and ugly.
[14:06] Harold
    A simple explanation of the rules:
[14:08] Harold
    The team that seizes the other's flag wins.
[14:11] Voice
    Makeup of each team's theurgear platoon:
[14:14] Voice
    One Gard.
[14:16] Voice
    Two Squires.
[14:18] Voice
    Two Krivanovs.
[14:20] Voice
    No time limit.
[14:22] Voice
    Visual range combat.
[14:24] Voice
    All units except the leader unit
    will be controlled remotely.
[14:28] Harold
    Both sides, begin!
[14:31] Joshua
    Let's go!
[14:32] Joshua
    Act fast and win!
[14:34] Joshua
    Follow me!
[14:39] Joshua
    Let's see... leave one unit
    in front of the flag...
[14:43] Joshua
    And the other...
[14:45] Joshua
    What a pain in the neck!
[14:51] Yuni
    Three enemy units approaching.
[14:54] Yuni
    Smog?
[14:55] Yuni
    How by-the-book.
[14:57] Yuni
    Lune, how are the traps coming?
[14:59] Lune
    All in place.
[15:00] Lune
    Leave it all to me.
[15:01] Yuki
    Two against one?
[15:03] Yuki
    That's not fair!
[15:04] Harold
    That's how Joshua wanted it.
[15:06] Harold
    He wants to overcome
    the handicap to prove his skill.
[15:19] Joshua
    Y-Yeah, that figures...
[15:22] Joshua
    But I won't make it easy!
[15:44] Yuni
    Two units withdrew, eh?
[15:50] Yuni
    Lune, you handle things over there!
[15:59] Lune
    One unit down, two to go!
[16:09] Lune
    That's just one... a decoy?
[16:14] Joshua
    Secret's out already?
[16:15] Joshua
    Then let's go for it!
[16:18] Yuni
    I anticipated this.
[16:21] Joshua
    Yeah, yeah.
[16:23] Joshua
    Then I'll just have to force my way through!
[16:36] Joshua
    Need to get that one first...
[16:57] Joshua
    M-Make it in time!
[17:03] Lune
    Aside from the leader unit,
    there should be two enemies left.
[17:07] Lune
    Proceed with caution!
[17:09] Yuki
    Darn it!
[17:09] Yuki
    It's two on one!
[17:11] Yuki
    I can help him, can't I?
[17:14] Harold
    As you wish.
[17:15] Yuki
    Joshua, can you hear me?
[17:17] Joshua
    Y-Yuki?
[17:19] Yuki
    Stay underground and keep moving south!
[17:21] Yuki
    That should get you around behind their flag!
[17:23] Joshua
    Right!
[17:24] Joshua
    W-Wait, this position is perfect...
[17:27] Yuki
    Perfect? For what?
[17:30] Joshua
    Give me a break already!
[17:32] Yuki
    I don't have a choice.
[17:33] Yuki
    Harold, pull up a diagram of that building.
[17:37] Harold
    As you wish, but what are you...
[17:42] Harold
    I see...
[17:45] Lune
    No defenses?
[17:46] Lune
    No resistance, either?
[17:48] Lune
    What in the...
[17:49] Yuki
    Harold! Now!
[18:01] Lune
    Can they do that?!
[18:03] Izana
    Impossible. The flag...
[18:05] Layla
    ...was buried?
[18:06] Yuki
    Now our opponents can't get it.
[18:07] Yuki
    Problem solved, right?
[18:09] Yuki
    Harold, we have one more
    ally machine, don't we?
[18:13] Yuki
    I'm going to use that.
[18:15] Harold
    Understood.
[18:37] Yuki
    Joshua, can you hear me?
[18:38] Yuki
    Everything's ready up here!
[18:40] Joshua
    Roger that! I'm on my way!
[18:51] Yuni
    That sound...
[18:54] Yuni
    What?!
[18:56] Izana
    Water's flowing out from underground?
[18:58] Harold
    Yes. The unit working on
    its own must have set it up.
[19:03] Harold
    That culvert was likely used to
    channel the city's waste water.
[19:07] Harold
    Joshua destroyed one of the weirs.
[19:10] Harold
    The underground area quickly flooded,
[19:12] Harold
    and the only way out for the water was...
[19:17] Joshua
    Passion and will!
[19:21] Yuki
    That's what Joshua was after?
[19:23] Harold
    And you happened to tilt that
    tower to a perfect angle.
[19:28] Harold
    But it's no surprise you're so in sync,
    seeing as you grew up together.
[19:34] Joshua
    Heck yeah!
[19:44] Harold
    The winner is Team Joshua.
[19:46] Harold
    The training is now over.
[19:53] Layla
    Are you certain about this?
[19:55] Layla
    Permitting the Royal Order
    to go to the border...
[19:58] Yuki
    Yes.
[19:59] Yuki
    Harold said we should send a delegation
     to the Empire out in the open this time.
[20:05] Yuki
    See?
[20:10] Yuki
    See you later, Yuni, Lune!
[20:13] Joshua
    Well, I should be going, too.
[20:16] Layla
    Joshua is a part of the delegation, as well.
[20:20] Layla
    The list was in the documents
    I gave you earlier, I believe.
[20:23] Yuki
    No way!
[20:24] Joshua
    Yuki!
[20:31] Joshua
    It's a bit belated,
[20:33] Joshua
    but I wish you a very happy birthday.
[20:40] Yuki
    Quit acting all cool.
[20:41] Yuki
    It's not like you.
[20:43] Joshua
    Hey!
[20:45] Yuki
    This is an order from your princess.
[20:47] Yuki
    Show her the outside world in my stead.
[20:53] Joshua
    So that's the deal, is it?
[20:55] Joshua
    Got it. See you soon!
[21:09] Yuki
    Make us proud, Joshua!
[21:21] Yuki
    Joshua...
[23:00] Bridge
    We're currently passing through Hariant.
[23:03] Harold
    Are you sure about this, Joshua?
[23:05] Joshua
    Yes.

    Grand Master Ingram,

    would you join us for dinner tonight?
[00:23] (Flashback) har
    My wife has been wanting to see Joshua.

    Your father served nobly
     right up to the end.
[01:09] (Flashback) iz
    It appears Princess Yuki is fond of you.
[01:17] (Flashback) iz
    You will live in the Royal Palace
    of Soleil from now on.
[01:20] (Flashback) iz
    You must make Princess Yuki smile.

[01:24] josh
    As my father's son,
[01:26] josh
    as a man of House Ingram,
[01:29] josh
    I swore that I would protect her smile.
[01:35] josh
    Let's go.

    We're arriving in the theater of operations.
[01:38] aud
    All units deploy.
[02:02] aud
    Dracorn Unit, Monocherous Unit,
    take the right wing.
[02:04] aud
    Gigarth Unit, Fantazma Unit,

[02:45] james
    There's no place more crucial to
    national defense than northern Wister.
[02:50] james
    This is the only route by which the Empire
    can mount a land invasion on a massive scale.
[02:55] har
    The large canyons throughout the wasteland
     provide a natural stronghold,
[03:00] har
    so the enemy has merely been
    biding their time until now.
[03:03] har
    If they manage to break through,
[03:04] har
    the war will spread quickly
    throughout the kingdom.
[03:07] har
    We're at a critical moment.
[03:08] james
    Main cannons, fire!
[03:17] josh
    Keep calm.
[03:18] josh
    Just do it like in training.

[05:16] lay
    Unlike us, the Empire of Grandiga

[05:21] lay
    Thus, they lack a chivalric order.
[05:23] yu
    What? Really?
[05:25] lay
    Yes.
[05:26] lay
    A state in which the military elite

    This was a recon operation

[07:38] josh
    Yeah.
[07:39] josh
    I can't imagine how sad
    she'd be to learn about it.
[07:43] josh
    I hope she never has to know,
    so that she can just keep smiling.
[07:49] josh
    Yuki will always be a symbol
    of peace for our kingdom.
[07:52] josh
    Keeping her from harm is
    our duty as retainers.
[07:57] yuni
    Understood.
[07:58] yuni
    We must hold the enemy off here.

    That's our lord,

    Margrave Girard.
[08:42] har
    The situation seems to have deteriorated.
[08:45] gir
    Yes.
[08:46] gir
    Our active forces have dropped
    to almost 30% of where they were
[08:51] gir
    when you and the twins left
    for Hariant ten days ago.
[08:55] gir
    But we're glad to get that
    new chrars you brought.
[08:59] gir
    Yuni, Lune, I'm glad you're both safe, as well.
[09:02] both
    Yes, sir.
[09:03] lune
    We're unworthy of your praise.
[09:05] gir
    I'm counting on you.
[09:11] josh
    If I might offer a piece of advice...
[09:14] josh
    We don't have any time to lose.
[09:16] josh
    I believe it's time to bring out our trump card.
[09:20] gir
    What do you mean?

[09:41] josh
    I'm increasing the output!
[09:48] yuni
    He really is reckless.
[09:50] yuni
    Altitude is 70... 75 over
    chrars stability level.
[09:54] james
    Is he trying to break the altitude barrier?
[09:57] james
    It was one thing for the technology
    of the ancient immigrants,
[10:00] james
    but these days, operating an air
    force on this planet is impossible.
[10:04] james
    The chrars stops responding
    and you can't produce energy.
[10:07] aud
    One hundred. Altitude barrier broken.
[10:15] josh
    I-It's no use...
[10:16] josh
    Is that the limit?
[10:18] josh
    Go!
[10:25] op
    Did you see that power?
[10:26] op
    Impossible!
[10:27] james
    So it still won't get us to flight.
[10:30] gir
    But if we could power our entire
    army with this new chrars...
[10:37] har
    I'll install the remaining two
    new chrars into your theurgears.
[10:43] har
    Tomorrow, we'll make the first strike.
[10:45] har
    We're going to get a few licks in, too.
[10:49] josh
    We can do this.
[10:50] josh
    With power like this,
    we have nothing to fear.
[11:00] josh
    It's bad for your health to
    stay up this late, Princess.
[11:03] yuki
    Joshua!
[11:08] man
    Plant them on the hovers and the limb joints.
[11:11] man
    We just need to ground them.
[11:19] josh
    No luck, huh?
[11:22] josh
    I heard our ancestors' planet was
    covered in beautiful flowers, though...
[11:28] josh
    Maybe sunflowers just won't
    bloom on this planet.
[11:32] josh
    I wonder why... Maybe the soil
    just isn't right for them?
[11:35] yuki
    I don't know.
[11:37] yuki
    But Izana told me...
[11:39] yuki
    When Mother was alive, she worked hard
    trying to get these flowers to grow.
[11:46] josh
    I hear you.
[11:47] josh
    I'll look into it, too.
[11:50] yuki
    Really?
[11:51] josh
    Well, I should go. Early day tomorrow.
[11:53] josh
    I'll call you again soon.
[11:55] yuki
    Sure!
[11:56] yuki
    Good luck with your duties, Joshua!
[11:58] josh
    Right.
[11:59] josh
    Good night, Yuki.
[12:01] josh
    Pleasant dreams.
[12:09] yuki
    That Joshua... Has he matured
    some since last I saw him?
[12:13] lay
    Princess Yuki, you haven't moved.
[12:16] yuki
    R-Right.
[12:24] yuki
    That's checkmate!
[12:25] lay
    That's against the rules.
[12:27] yuki
    But in a real battle, people don't
    always play by the rules, do they?
[12:31] yuki
    That mock battle before was so much fun!
[12:33] yuki
    I think I might actually be
    pretty good at that stuff!
[12:37] yuki
    Can I do it again some time?
[12:39] yuki
    Using a theurgear is a lot
    more fun than chess!
[12:43] lay
    War is not a game.
[12:46] lay
    Never forget that.
[12:48] yuki
    Well, of course it's not.
[12:49] yuki
    Even I know that!
[12:52] yuki
    You're weird, Miss Layla.
[12:55] lay
    Did you send the request for a ceasefire?
[12:57] iza
    I did.
[12:58] iza
    But there was no response.
[13:02] iza
    The Empire's territory is vast,
[13:04] iza
    but they don't have
    the resources to maintain it all.
[13:08] iza
    It was obvious that they would try to invade.
[13:10] iza
    To oppose them, we rushed
    the development of new chrars, but...
[13:15] lay
    It backfired?
[13:18] lay
    The empire was waiting for us
    to complete the new chrars.
[13:24] lay
    They chose to invade now
    in order to steal it.
[13:27] iza
    It's pointless to debate about it now.
[13:30] iza
    Our kingdom's future was
    already far from bright.
[13:33] iza
    You were aware of that, too,
    weren't you, Layla?
[13:37] iza
    Every year, our country's soil
    produces lower crop yields.
[13:42] iza
    It wasn't just about boosting our military.
[13:44] iza
    We needed the new chrars to keep
    the people from starvation.
[13:50] har
    The Empire has materiel superiority.
[13:52] har
    But our individual machines have
    superior specs and armaments.
[13:56] har
    Therefore...
[13:57] james
    Rather than continuing this war of attrition,
[13:59] james
    we need to stretch out the front
    and whittle down the enemy forces.
[14:03] har
    This will be the main theater.
[14:05] har
    Six platoons, including Pegasus,
[14:06] har
    and the Margrave's unit will set an ambush,
[14:09] har
    while another unit leads
     the enemy to them.
[14:12] har
    Joshua, that will be your
    Gard's responsibility.
[14:16] josh
    Yes, sir!
[14:17] har
    Just to be safe, Dracorn Unit,
    Monocheros Unit,
[14:20] har
    you'll stand watch over this tributary tunnel
[14:22] dra
    Yes, sir!
[14:23] dra
    Plant explosives on either end.
[14:25] dra
    If we have to, we'll collapse the ravine
[14:28] dra
    and seal off their route into Grad.
[14:31] har
    We'll commence the operation in 90 minutes.
[14:34] har
    All soldiers, take your positions!
[14:36] all
    Yes, sir!
[15:00] josh
    Pegasus 2, safe and sound!
[15:02] peg
    Great job!
[15:03] peg
    Krivanovs, fire at will!
[15:28] peg
    If you're trying to trigger the explosives
    planted on the three theurgears yesterday,
[15:32] peg
    we've already removed them.
[15:35] james
    Using the new chrars as a bargaining chip
    to negotiate a surrender to the Empire...
[15:40] james
    Was that the plan?
[15:41] har
    Why did you betray us?
[15:44] gir
    The fighting over these last
    ten days has made it clear...
[15:47] gir
    The empire is more serious
    than it's ever been.
[15:50] gir
    The new chrars are impressive,
    but three alone won't save us.
[15:54] gir
    I didn't want to see my city
    burned to the ground.
[15:57] gir
    I was willing to face the disgrace of
    betrayal to keep my people alive.
[16:03] har
    Fool.

    With a mindset so preoccupied with peace,
    you'll never protect anything.
[16:10] yuni

[02:55] lil
    No one's talking to you, Huey!
[02:58] pie
    It's an entirely baseless rumor.
[03:01] pie
    Even before the war, our commander
[03:03] pie
    was assigned missions:
    VIP escorts, stamping out terrorists...
[03:06] pie
    He always carried out his
    orders to the letter.
[03:09] brea
    All the more reason for the rumors, I'd say.
[03:13] brea
    How'd a guy like him end up leading
    a squad like ours, y'know?
[03:16] pie
    What do you mean, "a squad like ours"?
[03:18] pie
    Warrant Officer Break, don't you
    have any pride in our squad?
[03:23] hu
    Don't forget, Pierce.
[03:25] hu
    The guy's been a real creep from the start.
[03:28] hu
    Always looking down his nose
    at us one way or another...
[03:31] brea
    Like "I'm way too classy to
    share a tent with you lot"?
[03:35] hu
    That's it! That's exactly how he—
[03:38] lil
    The point is, he's been
    assigned to us for a month,
[03:41] lil
    but we still don't know anything about him.
[03:44] lil
    I don't like putting my life in
    the hands of someone like that.
[03:48] pie

[03:51] lil

[03:53] stel

    On the eastern edge of the State of Caldarth
[03:59] com
    lies a city called Azaria.
[04:01] com
    It's said to be a quiet place
     ruled by a local lord.
[04:04] gail
    What's its significance?
[04:07] com
    According to prisoners we took
    at the Battle of Lorgeth,
[04:10] com
    there's a chance some supplies have
    been left at the local forces' base.
[04:15] com
    But we can't afford to lose
    forces in another battle
[04:18] com
    with nothing to show for it in the end.
[04:21] gail
    You want us to perform recon?
[04:23] com
    It seems the local lord took
    the bulk of his army to guard Hariant.
[04:27] com
    Only a small local force should be present.
[04:30] com
    Infiltration shouldn't be difficult.
[04:34] gail
    That ends the briefing.
[04:35] gail
    We'll depart at 0800 tomorrow.
[04:38] gail
    Any questions?
[04:40] hu
    Sounds like a relaxing change of pace to me.
[04:42] pie
    Petty Officer Huey.
[04:44] pie
    People who say things like that
    tend to be the first to die.
[04:48] hu
    Scary.
[04:49] hu
    Pierce and Break, once we arrive,
[04:51] hu
    you'll stand by in theurgears
     on the city's east side.
[04:54] both
    Yes, sir.
[04:54] both
    Yes, sir.
[04:56] gail

[04:58] both
    Yes, sir.
[04:59] both

    phase of industrialization,

[11:46] stel
    Lieutenant.
[11:47] lieu
    I can't get in touch with

[11:51] lieu
    He's running an infiltration right now.
[11:53] lieu
    He'll be out of touch until

[11:57] lieu
    What's going on?
[11:58] stel
    He learned that the Order are here
    in the base, so he's investigating.
[12:03] lieu
    The Order?
[12:04] stel
    Yes.
[12:05] lieu
    We've just received word from
    the Hariant scouting party
[12:08] lieu
    that the Soleil Army is heading for Azaria.
[12:12] lieu
    A battalion, it seems.
[12:13] stel
    A battalion? Coming here?
[12:16] lieu
    Yes.
[12:16] lieu
    It might be related to whatever
    the Order is doing there.
[12:32] gail
    This is...
[12:36] lil
    A food plant powered by the new chrars?
[12:40] hu
    Just one of 'em is enough
    to run a plant of that size?
[12:43] hu
    Talk about an exponential upgrade...
[12:45] stel
    I suspect the Royal Army is coming to
    carry these provisions to the front lines.
[12:52] Lieu
    Chief of Staff Fleet.
[12:53] Lieu
    What do you recommend?
[12:55] fleet
    At the moment, we can't spare
    the forces to engage the battalion.
[13:00] fleet
    Special Ensign Gail Owens.
[13:03] fleet
    Can you obtain the new chrars
    and destroy the plant
[13:06] fleet
    before the Royal Army arrives?
[13:10] lieu
    What's the matter?
[13:11] gail
    I can.
[13:12] gail
    But it might result in civilian casualties.
[13:15] fleet
    A necessary evil.
[13:17] fleet
    If the food produced by that new chrars
[13:19] fleet
    were to be distributed across Soleil,
[13:22] fleet
    the tide of battle would
    swiftly turn against us.
[13:25] fleet
    The longer the fighting drags on,
    the more our people will suffer.
[13:31] gail
    Understood.
[13:33] fleet
    Just in case, we're sending two
    twelve-gun batteries your way.
[13:38] gail
    You mean...
[13:40] fleet
    If you fail, we'll bombard the plant
    from long range and destroy it
[13:44] fleet
    before the battalion arrives.
[13:48] fleet
    We expect the enemy battalion to
    arrive in roughly three hours.
[13:52] fleet
    Thus, the battery will open fire
    two hours from now, at 2300 hours.
[13:58] gail

    I expect they're badly depleted by now,

    The line's been breached at Diatoth.

[07:30] yuki
    Abandon... the State of Caldarth?

    Our dead on the northern front
    number approximately 15,000.
[07:37] lay
    A continued struggle will
    simply add to the casualties.
[07:42] yuki
    That's awful...
[07:43] lay
    Lord Harold and Lord Izana are doing all
    they can to keep losses to a minimum.
[07:49] yuki

    This is a list of cities that we'll lose

    Please check them over and
    grant approval, if you wish.
[08:07] yuki
    It includes the border city, Leash?
[08:10] lay
    Yes.
[08:17] (Flashback) josh
    That's the city of Leash.
[08:20] (Flashback) josh
    It's where the accident with the new
    chrars took place six years ago.
[08:24] (Flashback) yuki
    So that's where Mother and Father...
[08:28] (Flashback) josh
    Yeah.
[08:29] (Flashback) josh
    But to help wipe away the bad memories,
[08:33] (Flashback) josh
    everyone in the country worked together
    to build a city and a memorial there.
[08:38] (Flashback) josh
    So the dream of the king and queen
    will remain there, now and forever.
[08:43] (Flashback) josh
    Their dream, to make everyone smile!
[08:47] (Flashback) yuki
    To make... everyone smile?
[08:50] (Flashback) josh
    I think you might see that
    dream through some day, Yuki.
[08:55] (Flashback) yuki
    Really?
[08:56] (Flashback) josh
    Yeah!
[08:57] (Flashback) josh
    And I'll be keeping you safe until you do!
[09:03] (Flashback) yuki
    Okay!
[09:10] yuki
    But... if I do this, it will
    save a lot of people, right?
[09:15] lay
    It will allow us to avoid a
    pointless battle, at least.
[09:21] yuki
    I understand.
[09:23] yuki
    I approve the abandonment
    of the State of Caldarth.
[09:37] lay
    I understand.
[09:39] lay
    Leash is important to you, Princess Yuki.
[09:43] lay

[09:47] lay
    Twelve years ago, scientists

    Don't worry. The princess is unharmed.

    I awoke one month later.
[12:42] lay
    While I was in a coma,
[12:45] lay
    the Kingdom of Soleil had censured
    the Empire of Grandiga with a claim
[12:48] lay
    that the king's death was the result of
    the Imperial Army's reckless behavior.
[12:54] lay
    Diplomatic relations between the
    countries were severed as a result.
[12:58] (Flashback) iza
    Ms. Étoile.
[13:01] (Flashback) iza
    We've accounted for everyone
    who returned safely.
[13:04] (Flashback) iza

    And so, I lost my family, my home...

    everything.

    How are you feeling?
[13:38] (Flashback) lay
    Better...

    Do you remember her?

    That girl...
[13:52] (Flashback) iza
    That is the daughter of the late
    royal couple, Princess Yuki Soleil.
[13:59] (Flashback) lay
    Princess... Yuki...
[14:01] (Flashback) iza
    If you hadn't protected her,
    she would be dead now.
[14:11] (Flashback) josh
    C'mon, Princess Yuki! Bleh!
[14:16] (Flashback) josh
    Princess Yuki! Princess Yuki!
[14:18] (Flashback) iza

    From that day forward,
    I would serve Princess Yuki.
[15:10] yuki
    Miss Layla...
[15:11] lay
    Princess Yuki, I request that you change.
[15:18] yuki
    Hey, Miss Layla...
[15:20] lay
    Yes?
[15:21] yuki
    Did you know that Joshua and I used
    to sneak out together like this?
[15:27] lay
    Did you truly think that I wouldn't notice?

    Mother would think...

    Yes. You are a worthy princess of Soleil.

    I installed the new chrars
    without your permission.
[17:38] yuki
    Why?!
[17:40] har
    To hold the enemy back until
    evacuations were complete,

    power of the new chrars.

    I'm the one who recommended it.
[17:51] iza
    I'll accept any punishment
    you feel appropriate.

    everyone evacuate safely...
[18:06] yuki

[18:08] har
    Yes.
[18:08] iza
    That much is indisputable.

    No need to worry about that.
[06:38] gail
    This isn't some cushy operation
    I can trust you to handle without me.
[06:43] gail
    Take those words to heart.
[06:49] huey
    Still can't stand that guy.
[06:51] break
    We still don't know why
    he joined our squad, either.
[06:55] pierce
    I think... it might have been for money.
[06:57] lily
    For money?
[06:59] pierce
    I saw him make a money
    transfer back at camp earlier.
[07:02] pierce
    I was right nearby.
[07:04] huey
    That's not so weird.
    He's probably got family.
[07:08] break
    Or a girlfriend.
[07:10] pierce
    But it was quite a significant amount.
[07:12] pierce
    Even the accountant ended up
    asking who it was for.
[07:16] lily
    What did he say in response?
[07:19] pierce
    He said...
[07:20] pierce
    "I have a battalion's worth of little
    birds waiting for their feed."
[07:26] break
    What the hell does that mean?
[07:27] huey
    It means he's got a lot of stamina,
    if you get what I'm saying.
[07:30] lily
    Yeah, yeah...
[07:30] break
    It must be really something, huh?
[07:33] huey
    What?
[07:33] break
    You know what.
[07:36] huey
    Hey, Lily, hey!
[07:38] huey
    You get what he meant?
[07:55] pierce
    The tributary's in view on the right.
[07:57] gail
    We'll go straight for two more klicks,
[08:00] gail
    then cross the river and start heading west.
[08:13] gail
    Once we're over this hill,
    the bridge should be in sight.
[08:19] pierce
    What is it?
[08:21] gail
    Signal the squads behind us to stop.
[08:24] gail
    You see that?
[08:26] pierce
    A... theurgear?
[08:29] break
    Looks like scrap to me.
[08:31] gail
    It's a makeshift pillbox.
[08:33] gail
    They're hidden inside, keeping watch.
[08:36] huey
    Should we blast 'em?
[08:37] gail
    Make it fast and thorough.
[08:38] gail
    Don't let them report back.
[08:40] gail
    Any other theurgears around?
[08:42] stel
    None.
[08:57] lily
    Right, 12 degrees.
[08:59] lily
    Range, 203.
[09:01] lily
    Angle of elevation, 17... no, 18 degrees.
[09:05] huey
    Okay, I'm on it. Come on back.
[09:29] huey
    Okay, let's head back.
[09:32] lily
    Roger that!
[09:40] huey
    Lily!
[09:56] lily
    Ow!
[10:00] gail
    Is it the leg?
[10:01] stel
    It doesn't appear to be broken, but...
[10:04] huey
    Well, count yourself lucky.
[10:06] huey
    It would've been worse if my
    theurgear hadn't soaked the blast.
[10:08] lily
    You call this lucky?!
[10:10] lily
    If you hadn't sprung their trap,
    this wouldn't haveー
[10:13] lily
    Ow, ow, ow!
[10:15] break
    Well, it's clear you're a
    lucky bastard, at least.
[10:18] break
    You'd have eaten a direct hit
    if you hadn't slipped first.
[10:20] ---
    That again?
[10:22] break
    But this looks pretty bad, doesn't it?
[10:25] lily
    I'm fine.
[10:27] lily
    I've trained for...
[10:29] stel
    Were either of the other
    squads assigned a medic?
[10:31] gail
    Neither of them.
[10:33] gail
    We're supposed to focus on moving forward.
[10:36] break
    There should be a support truck, at least.
[10:39] break
    They could pick her up...
[10:40] lily
    Wait!
[10:41] lily
    I can still fight.
[10:44] gail
    Don't push it.
[10:45] lily
    Really! I'll be fine!
[10:47] lily
    Right, Stella?
[10:49] stel
    The truck will be here soon.
[10:58] lily
    Stella?
[11:00] break
    Guess she doesn't want you holding us back.
[11:02] lily
    That's mean!
[11:04] lily
    I can still fight, really!
[11:06] huey
    Sounds fine to me.
[11:08] huey
    If she says she can do it...
[11:12] huey
    And we can always replace you if you die.
[11:14] lily
    Hey!
[11:15] lily
    You're such a jerk! Ow...
[11:15] huey
    Hey, now!
[11:18] gail
    All right.
[11:20] gail
    Go on, we'll catch up.
[11:33] lily
    Um... thank you.
[11:38] lily
    I'm sorry for the trouble.
[11:44] lily
    So... you know medical stuff, huh?
[11:47] gail
    I've looked after my share
    of injury-prone types.
[11:51] lily
    I guess you would.
    On battlefields and such...
[11:55] gail
    More or less.
[11:57] lily
    Um... why did you join our squad?
[12:01] gail
    How long has it been?
[12:03] gail
    Since you joined this squad.
[12:06] lily
    Two years now.
[12:09] lily
    Stella and I are the only ones
    who've been here from the start.
[12:12] lily
    Huey transferred from
    another squad soon after,
[12:16] lily
    but he was just as green as we were.
[12:19] lily
    We received a lot of mockery and ridicule.
[12:24] gail
    Did the others all die in battle?
[12:27] lily
    Yes...
[12:28] lily
    We went through a couple of replacements
[12:30] lily
    before Warrant Officers
    Break and Pierce joined.
[12:34] gail
    I see.
[12:36] lily
    But... I'm really surprised
    I've lasted this long.
[12:40] lily
    I owe it all to Stella.
[12:42] gail
    You seem to place a lot of trust in her.
[12:46] lily
    I do.
[12:48] lily
    She's saved me time and time again.
[12:51] lily
    Remember when that borderland
    unit started a coup d'etat?
[12:57] lily
    Putting them down was harder
    than anyone expected.
[13:01] lily
    They'd dug in deep with
    an all-out resistance.
[13:04] lily
    In the end, both sides ran out of ammo,
[13:07] lily
    and we had to fight hand-to-hand...
[13:16] lily
    By that point, I was losing
    my will to fight back...
[13:27] (Flashback) stel
    Lily!
[13:29] lil
    Stella had run out of ammo, too.
[13:31] lil
    She had just one option left...
[13:43] lil
    It really surprised me.
[13:46] lil
    That calm and cool Stella
    charged right into danger...
[13:50] lil
    All to save me.
[13:54] gail
    She's always been that way, then?
[13:57] lily
    What way?
[13:58] gail
    I just can't get a handle on her.
[14:00] gail
    She's always smiling that artificial smile...
[14:06] gail
    Have you ever seen one from her?
    A genuine, heartfelt smile?
[14:14] lily
    Good question...
[14:18] gail
    What is it?
[14:19] stel
    We've made it to the bridge.
[14:22] stel
    We'll wait here for the
    other squads to arrive.
[14:25] gail
    Understood. I'm on my way now.
[14:27] gail
    I'll leave it up to you.
[14:29] gail
    If you don't think you'll
    hold us back, come along.
[14:33] lily
    Yes, sir.
[14:34] lily
    W-Wait...
[14:37] lily
    Well... I feel like I said
    more than I meant to.
[14:42] lily
    You're a good listener, Commander.
[14:45] gail
    I'm used to dealing with kids, that's all.
[14:47] lily
    Kids?
[15:03] gail
    We'll push through the forest as a group,
    rushing our target from behind.
[15:08] lap
    I expect to find at least a
    few sentries in the forest.
[15:13] lap
    If we end up in a firefight,
    the priority is for at least one squad...
[15:17] lap
    at least one machine to reach the target.
[15:20] lap
    That's all.
[15:49] lav
    Petty Officer Fourier!
[15:51] gail
    Spread out!
[15:57] lav
    Our squad will draw fire.
[15:58] lav
    You keep going!
[16:00] gail
    Roger that! Thanks!
[16:01] lav
    I'll head for the Order model!
[16:03] lav
    Aja, Upton, follow me!
[16:04] lav
    Guy, Eugen, stay here!
[16:06] all
    Roger that!

    There's more ahead!
[16:13] gail
    We'll handle them! Come on!

    I've lost contact with our allies!

    What?
[16:30] eu
    That one again...
[16:45] huey
    Hurry it up, Pierce!
[16:50] huey
    Okay, that's two down!
[16:53] guy
    Buerger... Squad...
[16:55] guy
    Buerger Squad, do you read me?
[16:57] huey
    That you, Guy?
[16:59] guy
    Eugen's down.
[17:01] guy
    The rest of us were disabled...
[17:03] guy
    by this one damned machine!
[17:05] huey
    He's down?
[17:06] huey
    Wait, are you telling me Eugen's dead?!
[17:08] gail
    Keep going!
[17:09] gail
    Huey, Break, Pierce!
[17:11] gail
    Don't worry about me!
[17:18] break
    More reinforcements?!
[17:20] break
    Huey, go on ahead!
[17:21] huey
    Roger that!
[17:28] huey
    Guy!
[17:30] guy
    Huey...
[17:31] huey
    Is that the one?!
[17:32] guy
    Be... careful.
[17:34] guy
    That thing's... fast!
[17:47] huey
    D-Damn it!
[18:19] lily
    Stella!
[18:34] stel
    Lily!
[18:44] lily
    You won't hit me with wild fire like that!
[19:04] lily
    It's broken?!
[19:11] lily
    Take this!
[19:24] gail
    Don't move, Lily!
[19:34] gail
    Enough.
[19:35] gail
    Don't bother chasing it.
[19:41] stel
    Thank you, Lily.
[19:43] lily
    I didn't manage to take it out, though.
[19:46] lily
    The way you did back then...
[19:49] stel
    "Back then"?
[19:51] lily
    Never mind.
[19:54] huey
    Looks like you're totally grounded this time.
[19:57] lily
    You looked way worse than I did.
[19:59] huey
    Shut up!
[20:01] huey
    Any left?
[20:02] gail
    We cleared them up.
[20:04] gail
    But the Hirsch Squad took
    major damage all around.
[20:07] gail
    They lost a member, too.
[20:09] huey
    Figures.
[20:11] huey
    Stuck-up bastard, telling me not to die...
[20:17] huey
    But what can you do but laugh?
    It happens over and over...
[20:27] pierce
    The flare!
[20:29] gail
    Looks like the Schaff Squad found their base.
[20:34] break
    They'll begin the main
    assault soon. Let's go.
[20:37] gail
    Lily, you'll wait for the
    support truck this time, right?
[20:41] lily
    Yes, sir.
[20:44] gail
    Your boosters are out, too.
    Can you still fight?
[20:47] huey
    You bet.
[20:48] huey
    Walking or crawling, I'll be there.
[20:51] lily
    Hey, no worries.
[20:52] lily
    We can always replace you if you die!
[20:56] huey
    Telling someone that just improves
    their survival odds, y'know.
[21:01] gail
    Okay, we'll attack the enemy from
    behind to throw them off balance.
[21:05] gail
    Let's go!
[21:06] all
    Roger that!
[21:15] lily
    Back then...
[21:18] (Flashback) stel
    Lily!
[21:25] (Flashback) stel
    Lily!
[21:30] (Flashback) stel
    Lily!
[21:43] lily
    I think that I saw it.
[21:46] lily
    Stella's genuine, heartfelt smile...

[00:14] yuni
    Hey...
[00:18] lune
    You shouldn't be moving yet.
[00:20] lune
    Your wound will open.
[00:21] yuni
    This is... the Excessarca's infirmary?
[00:26] yuni
    I can't be here... I need to
    get back to the front lines!
[00:29] lune
    Calm down. The battle's over.
[00:31] lune
    We're mustering our remaining forces
    and falling back to Hariant.
[00:37] yuni
    Then the defense line on the River Deese...
[00:41] lune
    Yeah...
[00:42] lune
    There was a full day of fighting,
    and the Imperial Army broke through.
[00:48] lune
    I don't like it either,
[00:51] lune

[00:55] yuni

    The Kingdom will bring you all
    safely to the evacuation site.
[02:53] yuki
    We will overcome this hardship,

    I, Yuki Soleil, believe this

[03:02] yuki
    Everyone, please prioritize your

    I'll be keeping you all in my thoughts.

    Princess Yuki... she volunteered
    for that painful duty.
[03:16] har
    But it was worth it.
[03:17] har
    There has been no panic among
    the citizens as a result.
[03:21] iza
    Will the war finally come

[03:26] har
    How's Elisa? Has she left
    the city with Noel yet?
[03:30] iza
    No...
[03:32] lay
    You did well.
[03:33] lay
    You should leave things to the others
    now, and go rest in your room.
[03:37] yuki
    Miss Layla... is there really
    no way to avoid more fighting?
[03:42] lay
    I'm afraid not.
[03:45] yuki
    What if I surrender, and turn
    myself over to the Empire?
[03:49] lay
    The people do not wish to sacrifice you.
[03:54] lay
    And it will be all the more torturous for
    them if we're occupied by the Empire.
[04:00] yuki
    Then, you're saying there's
    nothing else I can do?

[06:02] noel
    So pretty!
[06:04] noel
    Huh? Are those flowers, too?
[06:06] noel
    They look all droopy....
[06:07] yuki
    They're called sunflowers.

    They come from the our ancestors' homeworld,

[06:21] yuki
    Noel!

    It's... It's dangerous here.
[06:28] yuki
    I want you and your mother to go away.
[06:32] yuki
    Please.
[06:34] noel
    Why do we have to go away?

    Well...

    C'mon, tell me!

    Princess Yuki, you're in charge

[06:46] noel
    I bet you know everything!
[06:49] yuki
    No... I don't.
[06:55] yuki
    I'm like these flowers.

    Raised inside a cage,

    Princess Yuki?
[07:22] james
    The Kingdom's last line of defense
[07:24] james
    will be 15 kilometers north of Hariant,
    on the Bram Plateau.
[07:28] james
    We're down to 20% of our original forces.
[07:31] james
    Only two platoons of theurgears
    equipped with the new chrars remain.
[07:36] iza
    What's their speed of approach?
[07:38] ope
    They're within 100 kilometers of Hariant.
[07:41] ope
    They'll reach our line around daybreak.
[07:42] har
    They number 50,000 in total.
[07:46] har
    And I'm sure Chief of Staff Eine Fleet
     is commanding them personally.
[07:50] har
    Prepare one of the new chrars.
[07:52] har
    I'm going to join the front lines.
[07:54] iza
    Harold, you...
[07:56] james
    The old ace going back into action, eh?
[07:58] james
    That should boost the troops' morale.
[08:01] james
    But are you sure you can handle it?
[08:04] har
    Of course I can.

    Who do you think you're talking to?

    Heh... very well.

    I'll prepare you a Gard, then.

    Sure!

    Hey, Miss Layla.
[09:02] yuki
    The Empire started the war because
    they wanted the new chrars, right?
[09:08] lay
    That is one of the reasons, yes.
[09:11] yuki
    My parents were trying to make the
    new chrars to help everyone...
[09:17] yuki
    I think they really meant it, too.
[09:19] yuki
    But now...
[09:23] yuki
    So many people have died
    because of the chrars.
[09:27] yuki
    Why? Was it bad to make the chrars?
[09:31] lay
    One of the most basic causes of war
[09:33] lay
    is the struggle for wealth and resources.
[09:37] lay
    This time, it simply happens to be the chrars.
[09:41] yuki
    But...
[09:42] lay
    The energy that the chrars provide is
    the foundation of our civilization.
[09:46] lay
    Their application would inevitably extend beyond
     peaceful purposes to weapons of war.
[09:51] lay
    Regrettable as it may be.
[09:54] yuki
    Then...
[09:56] yuki
    Then I'm going to use those
    weapons to stop the fighting.
[10:01] yuki
    I'm tired of watching, silent and powerless!
[10:06] lay
    Princess Yuki...
[10:11] har
    Did the princess...
[10:13] iza
    Yes.
[10:14] iza
    I hear she's visited Joshua's
    grave every day without fail.
[10:27] har
    Adelle.
[10:30] har
    I'm sorry.
[10:33] har
    I'm going to give you reason
    to grieve once again.
[10:37] iza
    I'll ask, just to be sure.
[10:40] iza
    You aren't doing this just
    for revenge, are you?
[10:47] iza
    If the Empire hadn't resorted to
    force of arms twelve years ago...
[11:05] iza
    If you're just going back into
    battle to avenge her, then...
[11:10] har
    I can't deny it.
[11:12] har
    That is part of it.
[11:14] har
    But my desire to protect Princess Yuki—
    to protect the Kingdom—is genuine.
[11:20] iza
    Very well.
[11:22] iza
    Give it your best.
[11:29] ope
    Communication from the enemy Chief of Staff.
[11:31] aine
    I'll ask you one more time:
[11:33] aine
    Advisor Langford,
[11:35] aine
    do you have no intent to surrender?
[11:37] iza
    Certainly not.
[11:39] iza
    There is nothing more to discuss.
[11:41] aine
    Very well. So noted.
[11:47] aine
    Sovereign of the Kingdom
    of Soleil, Princess Yuki.
[11:50] aine
    I am commander of the Imperial Army,
    Chief of Staff Eine Fleet.
[11:55] yuki
    A pleasure to meet you.
[11:57] aine
    I'd heard you turned twelve years old, and...
[12:00] aine
    Indeed, you've grown quite pretty.
[12:02] aine
    You must have been raised in
    a truly loving environment.
[12:07] aine
    But that ends here today.
[12:09] aine
    Sit there in your ivory tower
    and watch your kingdom fall.
[12:14] har
    Here we go! Follow me!
[12:17] all
    Yes, sir!
[12:18] yuki
    That voice... was that Harold?
[12:20] iza
    Yes.
[12:21] iza
    He volunteered to lead the charge personally.
[12:24] yuki
    I've never seen Harold fight
    in a theurgear before...
[12:31] ope
    Approximately 1,200 in their vanguard.
[12:33] ope
    Their main force is right behind.
[12:34] ope
    Total number... incalculable!
[12:37] iza
    There are two elements to our defense line.
[12:42] iza
    First, the front line minefield
    will winnow their numbers.
[12:48] iza
    Those that break through...
[12:51] iza
    will be met by Harold and
    the rest of the vanguard.
[12:54] har
    Engage hand-to-hand combat!
[13:10] har
    Those that break through will
    enter the rear minefield,
[13:14] har
    where a firing squad will pick them off.
[13:19] yuki
    Wait!
[13:20] yuki
    Does that mean Harold and the others
    will be trapped between the minefields...
[13:23] iza
    Yes, and unable to retreat.
[13:25] iza
    It is a suicide mission.
[13:32] ian
    Half of the front line
    mines have been detonated.
[13:34] ian
    There are just too many of them!
[13:36] james
    Adjust the range of our cannons.
[13:38] james
    Angle of elevation, minus three degrees.
[13:40] james
    Relay the same to the Krivanovs.
[13:42] niko
    But at that angle, we risk hitting our allies, too!
[13:46] james
    They'll just have to be skilled
    enough not to get hit.
[13:57] yuki
    It never ends!
[14:01] lune
    Yuni!
[14:07] lune
    Grand Master Harold!
[14:09] har
    Keep each other safe,
[14:10] har
    if you don't want any regrets.
[14:15] har
    Here they come.
[14:17] har
    I won't let you people...
[14:20] har
    take anything precious to me...
[14:24] har
    ever again!
[14:47] lay
    You mustn't avert your gaze.
[14:49] lay
    This is our reality.
[14:51] lay
    You said that you wanted to
    stop the fighting, didn't you?
[14:54] lay
    Then think, with all your might...
[14:57] lay
    If you can't do that,
    you will remain powerless.
[15:24] har
    You crafty little...!
[15:39] har
    I admire your spirit, if nothing else.
[15:44] yuki
    Harold, no!
[15:48] har
    I admire your spirit, if nothing else.
[15:52] har
    Damn you!
[16:00] yuki
    That pilot went to help her comrade...
[16:04] lay
    The enemy are human, too.
[16:06] lay
    It's no surprise, is it?
[16:14] yuki
    This is wrong.
[16:17] yuki
    But what can I...
[16:20] (Flashback) josh
    Don't give up!
[16:22] (Flashback) josh
    With passion and will,
    there's nothing you can't do!
[16:37] yuki
    It's possible...
[16:39] yuki
    How many of the mines do we have left?
[16:43] ope
    20% on the front line. 50% in the rear.
[16:46] yuki
    It just might work...
[16:49] yuki
    Izana, do we have the
    data on the Bram Plateau?
[16:55] lune
    Yuni!
[16:56] yuni
    It's all right... I'm not finished yet.
[16:59] yuni
    Here I go!
[17:01] yuki
    Attention, all theurgears!
[17:03] yuki
    I've disabled all the mines!
[17:05] yuki
    Retreat to our camp behind the minefield!
[17:08] yuki
    This is an order from your princess!
[17:09] har
    Princess Yuki... What are you...
[17:12] yuki
    Notify the enemy army, too!
[17:14] yuki
    Hurry! I don't want any
    more of them to die, either!
[17:28] yuki
    All mines... detonate!
[17:37] yuki
    All units, fire!
[17:58] yuki
    Don't look away...
[18:00] yuki
    These are the consequences of my actions.
[18:03] lay
    The ground there is calcareous...
[18:06] iza
    It's been eroded away
    by an underground river.
[18:10] iza
    But I never even thought that you could...
[18:15] lune
    No way. It's so deep and so wide...
[18:18] yuni
    We can't cross it with hovers...
[18:22] har
    Excessarca, resume shelling!
[18:25] har
    If we thin out their forces now—
[18:27] yuki
    No, you will not.
[18:29] yuki
    I want you all to stand by
    and await my further command.
[18:31] har
    Princess Yuki!
[18:33] yuki
    Harold, you need to do as I say.
[18:35] yuki
    That's an order.
[18:41] iza
    Princess Yuki...
[18:46] james
    It will probably take until tomorrow
    for the Empire to marshal their forces.
[18:51] james
    What is our next course
    of action, Your Highness?
[18:54] yuki
    Contact their leader, Chief of Staff Eine.
[18:58] yuki
    The Kingdom of Soleil will accept
    the Empire's terms of surrender
[19:01] yuki
    and lay down arms immediately.
[19:04] yuni
    Princess Yuki!
[19:05] yuni
    But, then...
[19:07] yuki
    I don't want to see anyone else die.
[19:11] yuki
    So I'll turn myself over to the Empire.
[19:16] yuki
    I'm prepared to give my life
    to see an end to this fighting.
[19:20] yuni
    No!
[19:23] har
    Your Highness...
[19:25] iza
    You insist on this course of action?
[19:28] yuki
    Yes.
[19:30] iza
    Very well.
[19:32] iza
    I'll begin overtures to the Empire at once.
[19:36] yuki
    Thank you.
[19:39] yuki
    The signing won't be at the
    Royal Palace of Soleil?
[19:43] iza
    You must travel to the Imperial headquarters.
[19:46] iza
    This ship will take you there.
[19:49] yuki
    I see.
[19:50] iza
    Once the signing is complete,
[19:51] iza
    the Imperial Army will wish to
    begin their occupation immediately.
[19:54] iza
    I will remain and make preparations for that.
[19:57] yuki
    Please do.
[20:11] yuki
    Where are we going?
[20:13] yuki
    This isn't the way to the
    Imperial headquarters...
[20:15] yuki
    This ship is heading south
[20:17] yuki
    to the primary refugee evacuation site,
[20:19] yuki
    the southern State of Leo Tacrath.
[20:23] yuki
    What?
[20:25] yuki
    You will change our course this instant!
[20:37] har
    Princess Yuki.
[20:48] iza
    Good luck to all of you.
[20:50] iza
    Fight well.
[20:52] yuki
    Izana! I...
[20:55] iza
    Look after Elisa and Noel...
[20:58] iza
    And my other child, about to be born.
[21:06] iza
    Princess Yuki, you have just
    begun to stand on your own.
[21:10] iza
    Now is not the time for you to die.
[21:16] yuki
    Izana!
[22:51] aine
    To save her own skin, Yuki Soleil has fled.
[22:54] aine
    She has abandoned Hariant and its people!
[22:58] aine
    The sheer cowardice of it!
[23:00] aine
    She is unworthy to reign over others!
[23:02] aine
    We are victorious.
[23:05] aine
    The Kingdom is as good as fallen.
[23:08] aine
    And we owe it to your diligent, hard work.
[23:11] aine
    Glory to Grandiga!

    There was a lot of shelling
    in this area, too, huh?
[02:46] lily
    It's a strange feeling...
[02:49] lily
    seeing the aftermath of our attacks on them.
[02:52] stel
    And vice-versa, too.
[02:55] lily
    Yeah... looking at Pierce since he got hurt.
[02:59] lily
    It's still hard for me.
[03:02] stel
    Yes.
[03:04] stel
    Especially since he's trying
    so hard to be strong...
[03:11] brea
    I thought this was the royal palace.
[03:14] huey
    Yeah, pathetic.
[03:16] brea
    Hey, how'd it go?
[03:18] stel
    This should be our last visit

[03:20] huey
    What, is he finally kicking the bucket?
[03:22] lily
    You idiot. He's being
    discharged this evening.
[03:25] brea
    Today?
[03:26] lily
    So Stella and I were talking, and...
[03:30] stel
    I was wondering if we could
    all send Pierce off together.
[03:34] aine
    So the western Margrave
    won't submit that easily?
[03:39] iza
    Though they're technically part of our domain,
    it is a region with much history.
[03:43] iza
    You can force me to advocate on your behalf,

[03:48] aine
    I'm aware of the difficulty.
[03:50] aine

[03:56] iza
    Pointless blood?
[03:58] iza
    Don't you mean, "I'd rather not have

[04:04] aine
    I anticipated that the
    Royal Senate would flee here.

    I'd naïvely assumed that their
    surrender would come soon after...
[04:12] aine
    I didn't expect they would
    give us this much trouble.
[04:15] aine
    Rumors say that
[04:17] aine
    it's the runaway princess who commands
    the remaining resistance. Is it true?
[04:21] iza

    Break, go cook those sardines.

    Huh? But they're canned!

    Wh-Which one's the grill?

    Quiet down! Someone's gonna come!
[08:43] huey
    You people!

[08:54] huey
    Here, chateau these.

    Huh?
[08:57] huey
    Okay. Then trim these.
[09:00] stel
    "Trim"?
[09:02] huey

[09:03] huey
    Go decorate the room or something.

[09:46] break
    I feel weirdly nervous.
[09:49] gail
    Let's skip the pleasantries.
[09:51] gail
    To Pierce's release from the hospital.
[09:53] gail
    Cheers!
[09:54] all
    Cheers!
[09:59] pierce
    Amazing. You did all this...
[10:01] break
    Of course, it's almost all potatoes.
[10:04] lily
    But we worked hard to make it.
[10:06] lily
    Huey and all of us.
[10:10] lily
    W-Wow. It's so good!
    Really, really good!
[10:14] lily
    How to put it... it's rich, but not cloying.
[10:19] pier
    This is delicious!
[10:20] pier
    I know. This is perfect.
[10:23] pier
    I've been carrying these around with me.
[10:25] pier
    Would you like to try some?
[10:28] stel
    What are they?
[10:29] pie
    Bugsy beans.
[10:30] pie
    They're a local delicacy from my hometown.
[10:32] pie
    They're an acquired taste,
[10:34] pie
    but they can be quite addictive
    once you're used to them.
[10:36] pie
    Would you like to try one, Commander?
[10:38] gail
    I'm not really a fan of beans...
[10:41] lily
    They look delicious!
[10:43] break
    Wait. Hang on, I've heard of these beans.
[10:47] break
    When we feed these to Royal Army
    POWs, they complain about torture!
[10:53] huey
    Wh-What the hell is this?!
[10:56] lily
    W-Well... that's a local delicacy for you.
[10:59] lily
    They're rather... unique.
[11:02] huey
    They're gross!
[11:03] guy
    Hey, you guys okay?
[11:06] guy
    You don't have to force it...
[11:08] huey
    Water! I need water!
[11:09] break
    Wait!
[11:10] break
    If you want to kill the taste, try this.
[11:12] break
    It's what we drink in my hometown
    after you eat something gross.
[11:15] break
    You see...
[11:20] break
    It's even more gross, which cancels it out!
[11:21] huey
    You ass!
[11:22] huey
    You just doubled the grossness!
[11:23] break
    That's strange...
[11:26] guy
    I told you, you don't need to force it...
[11:31] guy
    Don't worry. I'll be filling
    your shoes and then some.
[11:35] guy
    Head on home without a care.
[11:37] lily
    Hey.
[11:38] break
    But it'll be nice to be home, huh?
[11:41] pierce
    I guess.
[11:42] break
    You guess?
[11:43] huey
    It never feels nice to get let go.
[11:46] huey
    He's getting a discharge
    for injury, remember?
[11:48] lily
    Still, your family'll be happy to see you.
[11:53] pierce
    I'm afraid I was a burden
    to them from the start.
[11:56] pierce
    You know the saying...
    "poor farmers, big families."
[11:58] pierce
    I basically joined the military
    to be one less mouth to feed.
[12:04] pierce
    A long time ago, someone tricked my father
[12:07] pierce
    into buying a large shipment of
    crop seeds that wouldn't root.
[12:11] pierce
    He lost a fortune, and our family
    spiraled from there into poverty.
[12:15] huey
    What the hell?
[12:16] huey
    Don't any of us come from a not-terrible life?
[12:19] guy
    What'll you do next?
[12:21] guy
    Got a job lined up?
[12:22] pierce
    Well... I haven't really decided.
[12:25] gail
    Would you like to work at my orphanage, then?
[12:30] lily
    Commander, what did you...
[12:33] gail
    I run an orphanage. I was asking
    if you'd like to help out there.
[12:37] stel
    Why do you run an orphanage?
[12:39] gail
    Do I need a reason?
[12:42] stel
    No...
[12:43] gail
    What do you think?
[12:45] pierce
    Well...
[12:47] gail
    Is that a no?
[12:48] pie
    No...
[12:49] pie
    Well, it's just so sudden...
[12:53] gail
    Think about it, then.
[12:55] gail
    Let me know before you go.
[13:06] mon
    Excuse me.
[13:10] iza
    I'm sure you were told to investigate
    if you saw me writing anything down.
[13:15] iza
    They're baby names.
[13:16] mon
    Baby names?
[13:19] iza
    My next will be born soon.
[13:21] iza
    But I'm having trouble
    thinking up good names...
[13:27] stel
    Excuse me, sir.
[13:28] stel
    Warrant Officer Break and Huey
    went back to their rooms.
[13:32] gail
    Guy, too?
[13:33] stel
    Yes.
[13:34] stel
    He was stumbling drunk, so the Warrant
    Officer took him back to his room...
[13:38] stel
    Lily took a walk to settle her stomach.
[13:41] stel
    She ate too much, she said.
[13:43] gail
    I see. You sleep, too.
[13:46] gail
    We can clean this all up tomorrow.
[13:48] stel
    Yes, sir.
[13:49] stel
    Ah... Where's Pierce?
[13:52] stel
    He left a little while ago.
[13:55] stel
    What did he say?
[13:57] gail
    About the orphanage?
[13:59] gail
    He hasn't made up his mind yet.
[14:02] stel
    I thought it was a wonderful offer, myself.
[14:04] gail
    I'm not sure I'd say an
    orphanage is wonderful.
[14:08] gail
    But I thought he might appreciate it.
[14:12] gail
    He said his father once told him...
[14:16] gail
    "You're a crop that won't root, too."
[14:21] gail
    Apparently he was a bit of a troublemaker.
[14:24] gail
    Well, it's a common story for young people,
[14:26] gail
    at that age before they've
    figured themselves out.
[14:29] gail
    But, apparently, those words
    cut him pretty deep.
[14:34] gail
    "They say I'm like the crops that
    brought my family to ruin"...
[14:38] gail
    "How could someone like me
    ever look after children?"
[14:44] stel
    I think he'll be fine.
[14:48] stel
    Those who know pain are better
    equipped to understand the feelings
[14:54] stel
    of children who have suffered.
[14:58] gail
    Were you one of those children, too?
[15:08] (Flashback) mom
    Come here! Call me Mom!
[15:15] (Flashback) dad
    I told you it's not working!
[15:18] (Flashback) dad
    It's not working...
[15:19] (Flashback) dad
    I don't even know if I'll
    be able to keep my job.
[15:22] (Flashback) dad
    I don't know if we'll be able to feed her...
[15:24] (Flashback) mom
    But you were so happy when she was born!
[15:27] (Flashback) dad
    But things have changed since then!
[15:30] (Flashback) dad
    If only we hadn't taken that girl in...
[15:42] (Flashback) mom
    Are you saying it's not good enough for you?
[15:45] (Flashback) mom
    Then wipe that expression off your face.
[15:53] (Flashback) mom
    That's right.
[15:55] (Flashback) mom
    Just keep smiling.
[15:57] (Flashback) mom
    Smiling will get you through anything.
[16:33] gail
    The children I'm trying to raise
[16:35] gail
    probably aren't the kind
    you're thinking about.
[16:39] gail
    I don't want to raise weak children
[16:42] gail
    who rely on commiseration
    to fumble through life.
[16:46] gail
    Nor children who lie to themselves and
    smile just to placate those around them.
[16:55] gail
    Pierce is just looking for reasons to
    justify his lack of self-confidence.
[17:01] gail
    It's not the flower that decides it
    won't root, it's the people around it.
[17:05] gail
    Flowers and crops both...
[17:08] gail
    They fight with all they have to take
    root and survive, don't you think?
[17:13] gail
    I'll go to bed, too.
[17:15] gail
    Haven't been this drunk in a while.
[17:28] lily
    Stella!
[17:31] stel
    Lily. And Pierce...
[17:33] lily
    I ran into him before.
[17:35] lily
    He made me this weird proposal...
[17:37] pie
    Well...
[17:38] pie
    Please don't say it that way.
    She'll get the wrong idea.
[17:42] pie

    request from a country bumpkin,

    Oh, we know that.
[17:54] lily
    But, look!
[17:56] lily

[17:58] lily

    allowed in without leave.
[18:01] pie
    If I have to return to the country,
[18:02] pie
    I'd like to bring a good story back with me.
[18:05] lily
    Want to come, Stella?
[18:06] lily
    I'd like to see it myself.
[18:13] stel
    Stop.
[18:14] stel
    That way!
[18:17] stel
    Hide!
[18:29] (Flashback) mom
    Smiling will get you through anything.
[18:33] (Flashback) gail
    Nor children who lie to themselves and
    smile just to placate those around them.
[18:42] lily
    Amazing...
[18:44] pie
    Yeah, it's amazing.
[18:47] pie
    Thanks.
[18:48] pie
    This will make a great
    story to take back home.
[18:50] stel
    Are we done here, then?
[18:52] lily
    Seeing as we've come this far,
    why not venture further?
[18:57] stel
    A greenhouse... in a place like this?
[19:02] lily
    It's so beautiful!
[19:08] pie
    I've never seen flowers like these before.
[19:11] lily
    Are they dead?
[19:14] pie
    Flowers that didn't root?
[19:19] stel
    But look, they've grown this big.
[19:23] stel
    Even if it's hard for them to grow,
[19:26] stel
    they still did so,
    while someone cared for them.
[19:30] pie
    You're right. They might not have had to die.
[19:36] stel
    Someone took really good care of them.
[19:39] stel
    Someone came and went,
    giving them water and love...
[19:45] stel
    "It's not the flower that
    decides it won't root."
[19:47] stel
    "It's the people around it
    who are convinced that it won't."
[19:52] stel
    The commander told me that.
[19:54] stel
    "Flowers and crops both..."
[19:55] stel
    "They fight with all they have
    to take root and survive."
[20:02] pie
    You think the commander's asleep already?
[20:06] stel
    Most likely.
[20:08] stel
    But he's probably waiting to hear from you.
[20:15] stel
    Who put so much love and care into
    raising these flowers, and why?
[20:29] sol
    You'll be home soon?
[20:32] pie
    Yeah.
[20:33] pie
    The border will soon be in sight.
[20:36] pie
    Then it's just a little bit longer...
[20:46] lily
    That can't be true!
[20:48] gail
    The transport hover Pierce was in
     was attacked near the border.
[20:53] break
    Any survivors?
[20:59] lily
    But...
[21:01] lily
    He was going to stop back home,
    then go to your orphanage...

    He seemed so happy...
[21:07] lily
    It's so...
[21:09] lily
    It's so...

    Despite our overwhelming disadvantage,

    Princess Yuki has stymied our

[02:25] lay
    To secure the supplies needed
    for their prolonged campaign,
[02:29] lay
    the Imperial Army continues to raid food

[10:01] lay
    Yes.
[10:02] lay
    It seems that even before the incident,
[10:04] lay
    they had been protesting the
    very existence of chrars.
[10:07] lay
    But Soleil and Grandiga
    did not share their views.
[10:12] lay
    That tragedy was the result.
[10:15] yuki
    But none of you... not you,
    not Harold, nor Izana...
[10:19] yuki
    were told why they objected.
[10:22] yuki
    Why did the Empire of Verde
    hate the new chrars so much?
[10:53] emp
    ...the result of reviewing...
[10:56] eine
    ...defeat the Kingdom...
[10:58] emp
    ...in live combat.
[11:02] eine
    ...heat suppression remains
    insufficient for practical use,
[11:04] eine
    so we're running further operational tests.
[11:08] emp
    Perfection is not required.
[11:10] emp
    Deploy them at once.
[11:12] emp
    You can acquire data from live combat.
[11:15] eine
    Very well.
[11:16] eine
    But first, please give me one more chance.
[11:20] eine
    I will defeat the Kingdom
    without using the new chrars.
[11:25] emp
    Chief of Staff Eine Fleet,
[11:27] emp
    is your reluctance to use the new chrars
[11:31] emp
    the result of reviewing the
    Empire of Verde's research?
[11:35] iza
    The Empire of Verde?
[11:47] har
    How many can we install right now?
[11:50] man
    Twenty-four.
[11:52] har
    Hurry.
[11:53] har
    I want our preparations to be perfect.
[11:59] ope
    Urgent message from recon squad.
[12:01] ope
    The Imperial Army at the palace
    is showing signs of movement.
[12:05] har
    Understood.
[12:06] har
    I'll return to headquarters at once.
[12:09] har
    Our recon squad reports five enemy
    carriers in port at the palace.
[12:14] har
    They're probably about to send a large force.
[12:17] har
    Their target will be one of
    these as-yet unoccupied states:
[12:21] har
    North Robia or Theras.
[12:24] yuki
    What's the status of the Excessarca?
[12:26] ope
    Still in the State of Chrisant,
    fighting alongside Margrave Guize's army.
[12:31] yuki
    I see.
[12:33] har
    I have twenty-four Gards equipped
    with new chrars heading our way.
[12:39] har
    We should muster our forces
    and meet them in battle.
[12:43] yuki
    No.
[12:44] yuki
    We'll continue our current strategy.
[12:47] yuki
    They outnumber us too greatly.
[12:49] yuki
    Prepare for withdrawal.
[12:51] har
    Losing either of those states will make it
    harder to hold off an attack on this city!
[12:57] yuki
    That doesn't matter.
[12:59] yuki
    As long as our people are safe,
[13:00] yuki
    there will always be another opportunity.
[13:02] har
    Your Highness!
[13:03] yuki
    I will not change my plan!
[13:06] yuki
    Contact the armies in both states covertly.
[13:09] yuki
    Have them ready to move people
    and resources at any time.
[13:13] har
    Yes, ma'am...
[13:30] noel
    Mom?
[13:32] noel
    Mom!
[13:33] ope
    Message from the scout squad!
[13:36] ope
    The enemy ships are setting out!
[13:38] ope
    They're heading for the State of North Robia!
[13:40] yuki
    Move the people and resources of North Robia
[13:43] yuki
    along the designated routes
    to the State of Theras!
[13:46] ope
    Yes, ma'am!
[13:47] ope
    I'll have them mobilize at once!
[13:56] iza
    Excuse me. Could I ask your opinion?
[14:01] iza
    It's about baby names.
[14:02] iza
    I've narrowed it down to two,
[14:04] iza
    but I can't seem to decide.
[14:26] ope
    Our forces will reach the State
    of Theras border momentarily.
[14:30] ope
    Five enemy carriers have arrived on the
    border to the State of North Robia.
[14:34] yuki
    I think we're going to make it...
[14:36] ope
    Princess Yuki! Message from an enemy ship!
[14:41] yuki
    Put them through.
[14:43] eine
    I'm honored to speak with
    you again, Miss Yuki.
[14:47] yuki
    You're...
[14:48] eine
    First, I'd like to apologize.
[14:51] eine
    I spoke to you in our last
    meeting with contempt.
[14:55] eine
    But I respect your continuing efforts,
[14:57] eine
    and your ability to inspire
    loyalty in your people.
[15:03] yuki
    Is this the only reason you called me?
[15:06] eine
    I wish to ask you one thing:
[15:08] eine
    would you agree to surrender?
[15:11] eine
    If you surrender now,
[15:13] eine
    we can put an end to all of this
    without further loss of life.
[15:20] yuki
    Twelve years ago,
[15:21] yuki
    the Empire of Verde resorted to terrorism
[15:23] yuki
    to keep the new chrars from being used.
[15:26] yuki
    Does your empire know why?
[15:30] yuki
    I see that you do.
[15:34] yuki
    If we surrender now, will you
    guarantee the safety of my people,
[15:38] yuki
    and the release of information
    about the Empire of Verde?
[15:44] eine
    I will guarantee the former,
[15:47] eine
    but on the latter, I refuse.
[15:50] yuki
    Then I cannot agree to surrender.
[15:55] eine
    A pity.
[15:57] eine
    Then you should have focused less on that,
[15:58] eine
    and more on your brethren
    just outside my front door.
[16:04] ope
    Message from the recon squad in Theras.
[16:07] ope
    Enemy ships and theurgears in large
    numbers are approaching from Rothea!
[16:10] ope
    It looks like an ambush!
[16:12] har
    They anticipated our movements?
[16:42] iza
    Of course... no time to keep eyes
    on a prisoner who's past usefulness.
[17:12] ope
    Urgent message! It's from
    Yuni Vanquish of the Order!
[17:17] yuni
    Princess Yuki.
[17:18] yuki
    Yuni! Where are you?
[17:20] yuni
    Near the border between Rothea and Theras.
[17:23] yuni
    After we finished our mission,
[17:26] yuni
    we heard about the situation there,
    and we went on ahead of the Excessarca.
[17:29] lune
    Our forces are surrounded
    about 300 meters away.
[17:34] yuki
    Lune, do you know if they're all right?
[17:37] lune
    According to communications
    recon intercepted,
[17:39] lune
    they've been completely wiped out.
[17:44] har
    Your Highness!
[17:45] yuki
    I know...
[17:49] yuki
    I'm sorry. I'm all right.
[17:53] lune
    Princess Yuki, recon picked up
    one more piece of information.
[17:58] lune
    Their chief of staff, Eine Fleet,
    is in the ship ahead of us.
[18:03] lune
    We could catch them by surprise right now.
[18:05] lune
    I'm positive we could take that ship down.
[18:08] yuki
    But... if you do that...
[18:10] yuni
    We'd gladly give our lives to
    punch the Empire in the nose.
[18:13] yuki
    You can't!
[18:15] yuni
    Princess Yuki.
[18:17] yuni
    Losing their chief of staff will
    be a massive blow to their army.
[18:21] yuni
    Let us do this!
[18:23] yuki
    I said no!
[18:25] har
    Princess, now is the time
    to do what is necessary!
[18:28] yuki
    We can't afford to lose
    any more of our people!

    After all this, you're still saying that?!
[18:33] yuki

[04:13] sen
    Well done. Keep the pressure

[04:17] sen
    How goes the increased

[04:20] har
    We're going as fast as we can.
[04:21] har
    On top of that, I have good news.
[04:23] har
    We've discovered that improving
    the placement of the new chrars
[04:28] har
    allows for far better output than before.
[04:32] har
    Using this in mobile artillery
[04:33] har
    would allow us to shell them from
     greater distances than ever before.
[04:37] sen
    Excellent!
[04:38] sen
    We'll blast those Imperial squatters

[04:56] yuki
    If that would indeed end the war,
[05:00] yuki
    I would welcome it...
[05:03] yuki
    But only if it doesn't cause
    unnecessary deaths on their side.
[05:08] har
    Princess Yuki, have you forgotten
    what happened the other day?
[05:12] har
    The Empire set an ambush
    for our withdrawing forces
[05:16] har
    and attacked them mercilessly.
[05:18] har
    As a result, the deaths
    were solely on our side.
[05:21] har
    "Treasure all lives, whether friend or foe."
[05:25] har
    It's a beautiful ideal, in principle.
[05:28] har
    But it's not realistic.
[05:31] har
    War cannot be whitewashed so easily.
[05:33] yuki
    I will not argue with you in that regard.
[05:36] yuki
    But the new chrars are another story.
[05:41] yuki
    Those assembled should be familiar by now
[05:43] yuki
    with the contents of the data Izana sent us.
[05:46] yuki
    Yet you continue to manufacture new chrars—
[05:49] har
    We do.
[05:51] har
    We have no other choice.
[05:59] yuki
    I don't believe it.
[06:01] yuki
    How could they ever face Izana after this?
[06:05] lay
    According to the research data
    the Empire was concealing,
[06:08] lay
    the scientists of the Empire of
    Verde had independently realized
[06:11] lay
    the chrars' negative impact
    on the environment.
[06:15] lay
    It would happen over the course
    of a millennium or two...
[06:18] lay
    But if we kept using chrars, the planet's soil
    would eventually turn barren.
[06:23] lay
    The Empire of Verde perceived the new chrars,
[06:26] lay
    which would hasten that
    process, as dangerous.
[06:30] lay
    That perception eventually led to the
    terrorist act of twelve years ago.
[06:34] yuki
    Do you think Mother and Father knew?
[06:38] lay
    I suspect that Verde first
    tried amicably to inform
[06:42] lay
    both sides about the danger of the chrars.
[06:46] lay
    But the information never
    reached the royal couple.
[06:51] lay
    Somebody smothered it.
[06:54] lay
    Them, most likely.
[06:57] lay
    Grandiga also suppressed the information.
[07:00] lay
    The Empire of Verde fell,
[07:03] lay
    and the survivors perpetrated
    that act of terrorism,
[07:07] lay
    killing the royal couple,
    and many others, in the process...
[07:12] yuki
    Miss Layla... did you lose...
    someone important to you, then?
[07:18] yuki
    I just had a feeling...
[07:19] yuki
    But I couldn't ask before now...
[07:23] yuki
    I guess you don't want to tell me about it...
[07:26] lay
    Princess Yuki...
[07:29] yuki
    And so, Miss Layla told me everything.
[07:34] yuki
    How she was caught up in the
    same incident my parents were,
[07:37] yuki
    and lost everything...
[07:39] yuki
    How she didn't feel like
    returning to the Empire...
[07:42] yuki
    and with Izana's help, started a new life...
[07:48] lay
    Princess Yuki, I have a favor to ask you.
[07:52] lay
    As a former chrars researcher,
[07:55] lay
    there is something about the information
    Lord Izana left us that concerns me.
[07:59] lay
    Could I have time to analyze it?
[08:01] yuki
    Yes. Please do.
[08:06] yuki
    The Royal Army mass-produced the new chrars,
[08:09] yuki
    and managed to keep the
    Imperial Army at bay...
[08:12] yuki
    The war fell into a stalemate again.
[08:15] yuki
    Casualties between the two
    armies exceeded 300,000.
[08:28] yuki
    Winter will come soon...
[08:30] yuki
    What will happen to these children
    if we can't get enough food?
[08:39] yuki
    Then one day, as autumn neared its end...
[08:43] har
    It is now about 90% complete.
[08:46] har
    The Excessarca is expected to
    collect the parts tomorrow morning
[08:49] har
    to carry them to the front line.
[08:52] har
    What brings you here today?
[08:54] lay
    Could I use one of the new
    chrars test facilities?
[08:58] lay
    I only require an hour.
[09:00] har
    If you wish.
[09:01] yuki
    Thank you. Let's go.
[09:04] har
    Wait a minute.
[09:06] har
    I'll show you the way.
[09:12] har
    What's in there?
[09:14] lay
    You'll see soon enough.
[09:34] yuki
    Miss Layla, what are those?
[09:37] lay
    Microscopic mechanisms found
    in our planet's atmosphere.
[09:41] lay
    Ancient nanomachines.
[09:44] lay
    The data Lord Izana sent
    allowed me to identify them.
[09:48] lay
    It's my first time seeing
    them this way, as well, but...
[09:53] lay
    These nanomachines were released
[09:55] lay
    by our ancestors to terraform the planet.
[09:59] lay
    These self-replicating nanomachines
    dissolved into the atmosphere,
[10:02] lay
    became part of its composition,
[10:03] lay
    and rendered the planet
    capable of sustaining life.
[10:07] lay
    But as generations passed from
    the initial immigration,
[10:10] lay
    the knowledge and technology were lost.
[10:16] lay
    In time, something unexpected happened...
[10:19] lay
    A mineral unique to this planet,
     the chrarslapis, was discovered.
[10:24] lay
    This revolutionary mineral provided
    limitless clean energy...
[10:28] lay
    But the idea of something coming
    from nothing is pure fantasy.
[10:33] lay
    They should have questioned
    it from the start.
[10:36] lay
    By coincidence, the chrars had a natural
    resonance with the nanomachines.
[10:41] lay
    The energy that seemed to
    be produced by the chrars
[10:44] lay
    was actually the energy that
    powered the nanomachines,
[10:46] lay
    extracted through that resonance.
[10:50] lay
    In effect, the chrars are
    draining the nanomachines.
[10:56] lay
    With continued usage, as you can see,
    the nanomachines begin to die out...
[11:01] har
    ...And the planet's environment degrades.
[11:04] har
    You're saying the Empire
    of Verde realized that?
[11:10] yuki
    Miss Layla!
[11:11] lay
    I'm almost finished.
[11:12] lay
    Try not to look directly at the light.
[11:23] lay
    Do not worry.
[11:24] lay
    The experiment was a success.
[11:27] lay
    Continuous overburdening of a new chrars
[11:32] lay
    shut down its resonance
    with the nanomachines.
[11:36] har
    Are you saying...
[11:38] lay
    Yes. The chrars lost its ability to
    channel energy from the nanomachines.
[11:44] lay
    The result is all around you.
[11:46] har
    I see...
[11:48] har
    It would be impossible to keep
    fighting under such circumstances.
[11:52] har
    It's the greatest weapon I've ever seen.
[11:55] har
    If we turned this on the Imperial Army,
[11:57] har
    the Kingdom could end the war victorious!

    90% of our energy supply has been disrupted.
[12:08] knight
    The security system remains down, as well.
[12:11] har
    Maintain maximum vigilance
    with the naked eye.
[12:13] har
    Let me know the moment the
    Excessarca is in sight.
[12:17] man
    Yes, sir.
[12:18] op
    Uncertainty is spreading among the staff.
[12:21] op
    It's late in the season,
    and we'll need ways to keep warm...
[12:24] har
    Distribute emergency rations.
[12:26] har
    Camping will be permitted within
    200 meters of the facility.
[12:29] har
    Tell the heads of each department
    to keep a firm hand on their staff.
[12:36] yuki
    Miss Layla, how long will
    things be like this?
[12:39] lay
    I believe power will be restored by dawn.
[12:42] lay
    Forgive me.
[12:43] lay
    I didn't expect it to
    affect such a wide area...
[12:47] lay
    My simulations had it limited
    to ten meters of the experi—
[12:58] lay
    Ouch!
[13:00] yu
    What was that sound she just made?
[13:04] har
    Not used to keeping a fire?
[13:07] har
    Another lifelong city dweller, I see...
[13:09] har
    I'll take over.
[13:10] har
    Camping's something I can handle.
[13:16] har
    It's getting colder...
[13:18] har
    You've really done it to us this time.
[13:22] lay
    The fire is going out.
[13:29] yuki
    It's nice and warm...
[13:32] yuki
    Maybe...
[13:33] yuki
    if we could all live together
    like this... war wouldn't even...
[13:39] lay
    According to the records, our ancestors
    did live like this, long ago.
[13:46] lay
    Our home planet did not have chrars,
[13:50] lay
    and before civilization developed,
[13:53] lay
    they must have spent a long time
    living just such simple lives.
[13:57] yuki
    Then, you think we could—
[13:58] har
    It's a fantasy.
[14:00] yuki
    Harold?
[14:02] har
    The loss of chrars would lead to a
    scramble for resources just to survive.
[14:07] har
    If we didn't have weapons, we'd just
    kill each other with our bare hands.
[14:10] yuki
    B-But...
[14:11] yuki
    Don't you remember the research
    from the Empire of Verde?
[14:14] yuki
    If we keep using the new chrars...
[14:16] har
    The immediate danger must
    be dealt with first.
[14:18] har
    If we fail to win this war,
    the Kingdom will fall.
[14:22] har
    Your beloved people will die out.
[14:26] har
    But if we use this against the enemy,
[14:28] har
    it could prove extremely useful.
[14:29] lay
    I'm sorry to inform you,
[14:31] lay
    but it cannot be used as a weapon.
[14:34] lay
    Neither we nor the Empire have the technology
[14:37] lay
    to make the phenomenon occur
    in a given location at will.
[14:42] lay
    I'm very sorry to disappoint you.
[14:47] har
    All right, I get the gist.
[14:49] har
    Try to keep the princess warm.
[14:52] lay
    Yes, sir.
[15:01] har
    It really is a fantasy...
[15:04] har
    But...
[15:05] har
    If not for these things, Izana...
[15:08] har
    You and she might never
    have lost your lives...
[15:14] har
    Losing and taking...
[15:16] har
    Is that cycle all there is, in the end?
[15:20] har
    In terms of what I can do...
[15:31] james
    I heard everything.
[15:32] james
    Quite a mess you had to
    deal with yesterday, eh?
[15:35] james
    Izana left you one hell of a souvenir.
[15:39] har
    Yes...
[15:41] james
    What happened with Izana
    isn't solely your fault.
[15:44] james
    You shouldn't beat yourself up too much.
[15:46] james
    We can't afford to lose
    any more of our people.
[15:48] har
    That's quite a tone to take
    with your Grand Master.
[15:52] james
    I feel the same way.
[15:53] james
    When did that boy I watched sweat
    bullets in his first deployment
[15:56] james
    start talking like he's a real man?
[16:03] lay
    I'm told the Excessarca
    will set out this evening.
[16:06] lay
    It's going to be carrying the new artillery.
[16:09] yuki
    I see...
[16:12] yuki
    Miss Layla, I want to ask you something.
[16:17] james
    That's all of it.
[16:19] har
    We're counting on you.
[16:25] aud
    That's the end of it.
[16:26] aud
    It's only a matter of time
    before the Imperial Army
[16:29] aud
    breaks the defense line and arrives here.
[16:30] har
    How goes the loading of the mobile artillery?
[16:32] jona
    Ten minutes to completion.
[16:36] har
    The moment it's done,
    head for State Capital Edinell.
[16:39] har
    Take Princess Yuki and get out of here.
[16:43] har
    Retrieve all the chrars research
    materials from the facility.
[16:46] har
    Get as many of the workers
    on board as you can, as well.
[16:49] har
    Out of the Order machines,
    the Monocherous Unit alone will remain.
[16:52] har
    I'll take command and buy
    time for you to escape.
[16:56] james
    Understood. And the twins?
[16:58] har
    I'm leaving them to guard the ship.
[17:00] lune
    You can't...
[17:00] yuni
    Master! Allow us to join you!
[17:04] har
    You'll keep Princess Yuki safe.
[17:06] har
    That's an order.
[17:09] yuki
    No! You need to come with us!
[17:12] har
    Your life comes first, Your Highness.
[17:23] yuki
    Harold!
[17:30] har
    Don't look at me that way.
[17:32] har
    You need to be stronger than this.
[17:35] yuki
    But...
[17:36] har
    We can't afford to stand still now.
[17:39] har
    The Empire won't be able to maintain
    this war of attrition much longer.
[17:43] har
    They'll be struggling to end things quickly.
[17:46] har
    Princess Yuki, I apologize for the
    many times I've disobeyed you.
[17:51] har
    It was the only way I knew
    to protect the Kingdom.
[17:59] har
    Princess Yuki, if you truly care
    about your country and your people,
[18:04] har
    the time has come for you to make choices,
[18:06] har
    no matter how difficult
    and painful they may be.
[18:09] har
    As their leader, you do not
    have time to stand still.
[18:14] har
    Walk forward, I ask you.
[18:23] yuki
    Harold...
[18:25] har
    I will hold the road behind you.
[18:57] mono
    Traps activated!
[18:59] har
    I think we might just buy them a little time.
[19:01] mono
    Yes, sir.
[19:02] mono
    Let's go out there, guns blazing,
    and hold their attention.
[19:06] har
    I'm sorry to make you join me here.
[19:08] mono
    Not at all.
[19:09] mono
    Any knight would be honored
    to serve as rear guard.
[19:13] har
    Indeed.

    Have they noticed us?

    Not yet.

    Now, give her your blessing.

    You've got weird taste, lady.

    An orphanage?

    Um... I was wondering if we

[05:06] lily

    Bad?

    I ended up in the army just to stay alive.

    So it's not really my place, either...
[10:36] lily
    Well, I wouldn't say the army
     is my place, either...

    with everyone... this is my place.
[10:48] stel
    Everyone?
[10:49] lily
    Remember Commander Gail before?
[10:51] lily
    "Make sure to get some sleep."
[10:53] lily
    "Maintenance will have us up all night."
[10:56] lily

    Yes.
[11:03] lily
    Warrant Officer Break and
    Guy have their nice sides.

    think of this squad as your place!

    120 kilometers to the south,
[11:57] gail

    with showing a little humanity.

    Humanity?

     shows their true nature.

    The crucial part is yet to come.
[11:59] lune
    If the Senate knew what

[12:03] yuni
    Yeah.
[12:05] yuni
    I can't believe Miss Layla
    approved such an outrageous plan.
[12:09] lay
    I knew how long Princess Yuki had
    been torturing herself over it.
[12:17] (Flashback) yuki
    Miss Layla, I've thought over again and again
[12:22] (Flashback) yuki
    that we should surrender to
    the Empire and end the war.
[12:27] (Flashback) yuki
    But... even if we end this particular war,
[12:31] (Flashback) yuki
    the same thing will happen again someday.
[12:35] (Flashback) yuki
    No... an even bigger war will take place,
[12:40] (Flashback) yuki
    and even more people might die.
[12:44] (Flashback) yuki
    So I...
[12:54] (Flashback) yuki
    I want to shut down all
    the chrars on the planet.
[13:04] (Flashback) lay
    That's the answer you've
    come to, Princess Yuki?
[13:09] (Flashback) lay
    I'm sorry to say, there's no way
    to make that happen from Soleil.
[13:16] (Flashback) lay
    But the data that Lord Izana
    sent us contained accounts
[13:21] (Flashback) lay
    of an experimental facility
    in the old Verde Empire.
[13:25] (Flashback) yuki
    An experimental facility?
[13:26] (Flashback) lay
    The scientists of Verde once
    had the same idea you did.
[13:32] (Flashback) lay
    They constructed a facility
    to put it into practice.
[13:37] (Flashback) lay
    At the time, they couldn't
    achieve their theorized result.
[13:43] (Flashback) lay
    But with the technology we have
    now, it might become possible.
[13:50] (Flashback) yuki
    Miss Layla. Help me.
[13:59] yuki
    Let's go over the plan one more time.
[14:02] yuki
    First, in accordance with my declaration,
[14:05] yuki
    James will head towards Hariant with the
    main force and the mobile artillery.
[14:10] yuki
    You should encounter the enemy
    somewhere in the State of North Robia.
[14:14] yuki
    Once they're in sight,
[14:15] yuki
    use the mobile artillery's range to fire
    a warning shot at their front line.
[14:19] yuki
    That will hold them in place.
[14:22] yuki
    Avoid an exchange of fire for as
    long as you can, and buy us time.
[14:26] yuki
    If the enemy commander
    knows what they're doing,
[14:28] yuki
    a display of power like that
    should give them pause.
[14:34] yuki
    But if they realize it's a
    hastily-prepared prototype...
[14:38] james
    Please.
[14:39] james
    I've bluffed them on the
    battlefield enough times before.
[14:43] james
    I'll make sure it works out.
[14:47] yuki
    In the meantime, Miss Layla and I
[14:50] yuki
    will slip through the State of Theras,
    then the State of Chrisant,
[14:53] yuki
    on the way to old Verde Empire territory.
[14:56] yuki
    To keep a low profile, our guard will
    be Yuni and Lune, and one other squad.
[15:02] yuki
    When we arrive at the experimental facility...
[15:05] yuki
    Then...
[15:15] lune
    Princess Yuki, I'm sure it will go well.
[15:18] yuni
    "Passion and will!" Right?
[15:29] lay
    You would not prefer to give it more time?
[15:33] yuki
    No... because I don't know
    if I'll ever make it back.
[15:39] yuki
    Elisa is holding off, because I
    said I would tell her myself...

    here to eat dinner today?

    You don't have to tell me that.
[18:21] yuki
    If Izana, Harold, and Joshua
    knew what I'm about to do...
[18:30] yuki
    Do you think they'd forgive me?
[18:34] yuki
    No matter what happens,
    I must accept sole responsibility.
[18:39] yuki
    Because this is the decision I've made.
[18:46] lay
    I've felt the same fear
    you have, Princess Yuki.
[18:53] lay
    When I lost my family in the
    accident twelve years ago,
[18:56] lay
    I was assailed by unfathomable loneliness.
[19:00] yuki
    Miss Layla...
[19:02] lay
    Even now, sometimes, when I look at you,
[19:04] lay
    I'm reminded of my daughter.
[19:07] yuki
    Your daughter?
[19:09] lay
    She was kind, and smiled, just like you.
[19:21] yuki
    Miss Layla... how did you get
    past the fear you felt then?
[19:27] lay
    Your smile, Princess Yuki.
[19:43] lay
    Your smile has a mysterious power.
[19:47] lay
    That power that envelops
    people... it saved me.
[19:54] lay
    And that's when I decided...
[19:56] lay
    that no matter what happened, I would
    remain by that smile to the end.
[20:03] yuki
    Miss Layla...
[20:05] lay
    If all the chrars are shut down,
[20:07] lay
    the people will face
    hardship like never before.
[20:11] lay
    That's when your role will truly begin.
[20:20] yuki
    I will make my kingdom...
[20:25] yuki
    I will make everyone on this planet smile!

[04:04] eine
    its military value would be incalculable.

    That is why our empire did
