The Price of Smiles On a planet far, far away from Earth, there reigns a kingdom overflowing with smiles. Princess Yuki is twelve years old and beginning to ride the roller coaster of emotions that comes with adolescence. Each day brings with it tears, laughter, and even a little romance. The palace is full of fun, and the vassals who serve her there add color to her life. Seventeen-year-old Stella is a brilliant warrior. Even though she is cool as a cucumber, she never fails to smile. That's because smiling is essential to life. This is a story about two girls born on a distant planet.

[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. [23:06] Joshua     I will protect Yuki's smile... [23:09] Joshua     with passion and will! [23:14] Harold     This is the current state at the border. [23:18] Harold     To spare Princess Yuki tremendous heartache, [23:20] Harold     we need to settle this ourselves.

[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.

[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.

[02:53] yuki     We will overcome this hardship,     and smile together again some day. [02:58] yuki     I, Yuki Soleil, believe this     from the bottom of my heart. [03:02] yuki     Everyone, please prioritize your     safety over everything else. [03:07] yuki     I'll be keeping you all in my thoughts. [03:11] iza     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.

[03:42] 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? [04:07] yuki     It was the same back then... in Leash. [04:12] yuki     I just wanted to save the     people left in the city... [04:16] yuki     But I couldn't do anything... except watch...

[05:05] eli     If you're staying and fighting,     I want to be here to support you. [05:11] eli     The others' families all feel the same way. [05:15] iza     But... [05:22] noel     Princess Yuki! [05:24] yu     Noel! What are you... [05:26] yu     Who are these people? [05:28] eli     It's been some time, Princess Yuki.

[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. [06:09] yuki     They come from the our ancestors' homeworld, [06:12] yuki     but they're very hard to grow... [06:15] noel     Let's water them! I'll go get some! [06:21] yuki     Noel! [06:24] yuki     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? [06:36] noel     We haven't done anything wrong. [06:40] yuki     Well... [06:42] noel     C'mon, tell me! [06:43] noel     Princess Yuki, you're in charge     of the whole country, right? [06:46] noel     I bet you know everything! [06:49] yuki     No... I don't. [06:55] yuki     I'm like these flowers. [06:59] yuki     Raised inside a cage,     sheltered and cared for... [07:03] yuki     That's why I didn't know... [07:06] yuki     what was really going on... [07:09] yuki     But... [07:12] yuki     I can't stay like this. [07:15] noel     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. [08:05] har     Who do you think you're talking to? [08:07] james     Heh... very well. [08:08] james     I'll prepare you a Gard, then. [08:21] lay     Your daughter is in Princess Yuki's room. [08:24] lay     You should take some time to rest, as well. [08:26] eli     All right. I think I shall. [08:31] lay     Elisa? [08:34] eli     Yes? [08:35] lay     Take care of your daughter. [08:38] lay     If there's anything that I can do,     don't hesitate to let me know. [08:42] eli     I appreciate it greatly. [08:44] eli     Now, eat up, before it gets cold. [08:52] lay     Elisa prepared dinner for us. Shall we? [08:57] yuki     Sure! [09:00] yuki     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.

[04:17] sen     How goes the increased     production of the new chrars? [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     right out of our palace! [04:42] har     The weapon will primarily     serve as a show of force. [04:45] har     We're long past the point where powerful     artillery alone can win us the day. [04:51] har     But if used prudently, [04:53] har     this could perhaps turn the     tide back in our favor. [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! [12:06] knight     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...

[15:32] 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...

[11:19] yuki     Yesterday, our recon squad [11:22] yuki     reported that the Empire is     preparing a full-scale offensive. [11:25] all     What?! [11:27] yuki     This is our only remaining option. [11:30] sen     But do we stand a chance? [11:35] yuki     As discussed earlier,     the completed mobile artillery [11:39] yuki     will help to compensate     for our inferior numbers. [11:42] yuki     And if we emphasize that it     was Harold's final project, [11:46] yuki     it should raise the soldiers' morale. [11:52] james     Honestly... this is quite the     plan you've come up with. [11:56] yuki     The crucial part is yet to come. [11:59] lune     If the Senate knew what     we were really planning, [12:01] lune     they'd try to overturn us. [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.

[13:43] (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?

[10:44] stel     Is she going to use that power     to destroy the Imperial Army? [10:50] stel     That would explain the     chief of staff's order... [10:55] lay     Princess Yuki merely wishes to end the war. [10:58] lay     Even if it means earning the world's censure, [11:01] lay     she is prepared to see through her ideals. [11:04] stel     Then it's true... [11:06] lay     Imperial soldier. [11:08] lay     I know that you, too, have seen many     terrible sights on the battlefield. [11:13] lay     If such things cause you any pain at all... [11:58] lay     I'm so glad... [12:00] stel     You... [12:02] lay     You survived... [12:09] lay     You can't save me. [12:11] lay     Don't worry about me. [12:19] lay     Princess Yuki... although she acts     strong, she is still a child. [12:28] lay     Please help her... Help Yuki. [12:35] lay     You, who have such kind eyes... [12:39] lay     With her... together... [12:42] lay     I know you will... [12:45] lay     bring smiles... to all the     people of this planet... [12:49] lay     My dear... daughters... [12:57] stel     Why... Why did you save me? [13:13] stel     Stop the chrars? [13:16] stel     Impossible. It can't be done. [13:23] stel     But if it means... [13:42] yuki     You're late, Miss Layla— [13:46] yuki     Who are you? [13:47] stel     What does it matter? [13:48] stel     I'm nothing, compared to     the princess of a country. [13:52] yuki     Where's Miss Layla? [13:54] yuki     Did you see her in the room downstairs? [13:56] yuki     She's important to me! [13:59] stel     That woman... Ah, that person... [14:04] stel     The ceiling came down, and for some reason... [14:08] stel     to save me, she... [14:18] stel     She said you plan to stop the chrars. [14:20] stel     Are you planning to destroy     our Imperial Army? [14:25] yuki     Did Miss Layla tell you that? [14:29] yuki     Yes. But I'm not doing     it to defeat the Empire. [14:32] yuki     I want to disable all of the world's weapons, [14:36] yuki     so that we'll never have war again. [14:41] yuki     I've seen so much of it... [14:43] yuki     People dying because of me... [14:47] yuki     People dying for me... [14:51] yuki     I never want it to happen again. [14:54] yuki     So I... [14:57] stel     Even if you do get rid of the weapons, [14:59] stel     the same thing will happen again. [15:01] stel     People will kill each other. [15:03] yuki     But if we don't do anything, [15:06] yuki     more and more people will     die because of the chrars! [15:09] yuki     It's not right! [15:12] yuki     I know. I know it's not that simple, [15:15] yuki     but I want to believe...     that humans are good. [15:22] yuki     That they can stop fighting     and live together, smiling. [15:28] stel     That's just what someone     raised in a palace would say. [15:33] stel     I can't go along with it. [15:36] stel     What would a princess know about our lives? [15:39] stel     About the people forced to spend     their lives crawling in the dirt? [15:43] stel     Stop the chrars, you say? [15:46] stel     That's going to shut down     more than the weapons! [15:49] stel     It'll mean losing all the energy     we need to live our lives! [15:52] stel     Not everyone can endure a life like that! [15:55] stel     Things will get harder than they are now! [15:58] yuki     But it's better than losing     more people we care about! [16:06] stel     I don't want to admit it. [16:11] stel     But... [16:13] stel     somewhere in my heart, I've been     thinking the same thing as her... [16:18] (Flashback) fb     Please help her... Help Yuki. [16:31] yuki     With passion and will, we can do anything. [16:35] yuki     That's something...     someone I loved always said to me. [16:40] yuki     I don't care if everyone     in the world hates me. [16:43] yuki     I... I still... [16:55] stel     What do I do? To make a world... [16:58] stel     A world where they don't have to fight...     Where they can smile... [17:04] stel     If it's really possible to     make something like that... [17:14] stel     This will really shut them down? [17:17] yuki     Why... [17:18] stel     The person I owe my life to     said something to me, too: [17:21] stel     "See them through." [17:24] stel     I think I'll take my chances [17:26] stel     to see what kind of future you'll bring us. [17:30] stel     I'll be court-martialed     for this, to be sure... [17:32] yuki     What's your name? [17:36] stel     Stella. [17:38] stel     Stella Shining. [17:43] yuki     Thank you. [18:29] huey     What's going on? Hey! [18:34] yuni     Princess Yuki... [21:04] emp     Please sign the terms of armistice. [21:08] yuki     Summer has come. [21:10] yuki     The shutdown of the chrars     has restored the crops.

[21:25] stel     The members of the Buerger Squad     have all begun walking new paths. [21:34] yuni     We've received a request from the Empire. [21:37] yuni     They're asking if we have any documents     left from the migration era, [21:39] yuni     and if we can make them public. [21:41] lune     It's certainly tempting to go back     to pre-chrars technology, but... [21:45] james     We must be as careful as possible. [21:47] james     We can't afford to make     the same mistakes again. [21:53] yuki     Please, watch over us, everyone. [21:58] stel     Regardless of the resentments     of the past, just as you wished, [22:04] stel     we're going to live on, hand in hand. [22:08] lily     Welcome!
