[00:22] head
    That girl will bring
    misfortune to this village.
[00:27] head
    Those with no stars should not be
    allowed to exist in this world.
SIGN    On a Journey Alone
[01:44] Femicia
    All right.
[02:01] Femicia
    All they found was the hiding
    place closest to the village.
[02:06] Femicia
    What?
[02:07] Femicia
    You're asking if it's difficult?
[02:08] Femicia
    Not after everything else.
    I gave up on happiness long ago.
[02:16] Femicia
    I'm an unwanted child.
[02:19] Femicia
    I was cast aside.
[02:26] Femicia
    Which is why I...
[02:28] Femicia
    I'm casting the village aside, too!
[03:02] Femicia
    If only I had skills like everyone else does.
[03:04] Femicia
    Like running or escaping or hiding!
[03:07] Femicia
    Oh, but if I'd had skills, none of this would
    have happened in the first place, right?
[03:13] Femicia
    What? "If I complain about the way I was
    born, nothing will ever start for me"?
[03:18] Femicia
    Did I experience something
    like this in a past life, too?
[03:29] Femicia
    Oh, it's a dumping ground!
[03:35] Femicia
    Is there anything good in here?
[03:52] Femicia
    Anything good...
[03:58] Femicia
    Oh! Clothing!
[04:04] Femicia
    This is...
[04:06] Femicia
    a map! That might make my
    journey a little easier.
[04:10] Femicia
    This color. It's probably a blue potion.
[04:13] Femicia
    The color has changed quite a bit,
    but it might still be usable.
[04:19] Femicia
    I need all of these clothes.
[04:23] Femicia; internal
    I'm an unwanted child.
[04:26] Femicia; internal
    An unwanted child living
    on trash no one wants anymore.
[04:31] Femicia; internal
    Oh, the irony.
[04:37] traveler A
    This is perfect. It's about time
    to feed the slimes.
[04:49] Femicia; internal
    That person's a tamer.
[04:56] Femicia
    Huh? You're asking
    if I think the slimes are cute?
[05:00] Femicia
    Why would my past life want to
    think of monsters as cute?
[05:03] traveler A
    She's got a child's legs.
    She can't have gotten very far.
[05:09] traveler A
    The problem is figuring out
    which way she ran,
[05:11] traveler A
    but it's very likely that she went
    to the nearest village, Latoff.
[05:16] traveler B
    Then she should be around here somewhere,
[05:18] traveler B
    this Femicia girl.
[05:21] traveler B
    And the head of Latomi Village
    is making too much of this.
[05:24] traveler B
    Putting a bounty on a little girl?
[05:27] traveler A
    And he said dead or alive
    makes no difference.
[05:32] Femicia; internal
    The village head... intends to kill me.
[06:02] Femicia
    Slimes?
[06:04] Femicia
    No!
[06:11] Femicia
    They are not cute. I hate this!
[06:14] Femicia
    "The forest is dangerous because
    of all the monsters"? I know that!
[06:41] Femicia
    I'm saved.
[06:54] Femicia
    It's old, so one isn't enough.
[06:58] Femicia
    "They're not just not cute, they're scary"?
    Well, they are monsters.
[07:03] Femicia
    I don't know. Is my past life talking
    about some other kind of slimes?
[07:10] Femicia
    It healed.
[07:12] Femicia
    They probably won't chase me anymore, right?
[07:24] Femicia
    Oh, how beautiful.
[08:01] Femicia; internal
    It feels so good!
[08:03] Femicia; internal
    I've never done anything like this before.
[08:05] Femicia; internal
    I've lived my whole life
    in hiding, so I've always...
[08:13] Femicia; internal
    I won't hesitate. I'll be bold and resolute.
[08:15] Femicia; internal
    That's right. It's what
    I always intended to do.
[08:19] Femicia; internal
    And the fortune teller said so, too.
[08:36] Femicia; internal
    She said to disguise myself as a boy
    when I travel because it'll be less dangerous.
[08:43] Femicia
    "A girl traveling alone is just a
    sitting duck." What does that mean?
[09:09] Femicia
    I'll have to change my name, too.
[09:11] Femicia
    The name my father gave me, Femicia...
[09:16] Femicia
    I'll cast it aside.
[09:19] Femicia
    What name should I choose?
[09:23] Femicia
    Ivy?
[09:24] Femicia
    What's that?
[09:26] Femicia
    "The name of a plant that
    thrives even if you step on it"?
[09:33] Femicia
    Ivy...
[09:35] Femicia
    This is who I am from now on. Ivy.
[09:42] Femicia
    I wonder what will happen to me.
[09:46] Ivy
    "There's no point in worrying
    about the future."
[09:49] Ivy
    But everyone else has more
    of a purpose than I do.
[09:53] Ivy
    The person I am now has nothing.
[09:56] Ivy
    Yes, having nothing is easier.
[10:36] Ivy
    How cute!
[10:53] Ivy
    This isn't it either. Maybe it isn't
    in the monster compendium?
[10:58] Ivy
    There!
[11:00] Ivy
    A rare slime with no name.
[11:03] Ivy
    So, you don't have a name, little one?
[11:08] Ivy
    It's called "the weakest slime,"
    or "the disintegrating slime."
[11:15] Ivy
    I see.
[11:17] Ivy
    So you're the weakest
    of your kind, just like me!
[11:22] Ivy
    But I don't want to call you "the weakest."
[11:25] Ivy
    Maybe I'll call you the disintegrating slime.
[11:43] Ivy
    My, you really are weak, aren't you?
[11:52] Ivy
    Could it be that you can't get back up?
[11:59] Ivy
    "This slime is so weak that it can
    disappear with just a poke."
[12:04] Ivy
    "If the wind blows too hard,
    it will disappear."
[12:07] Ivy
    What? It's that weak?
[12:11] Ivy
    What should I do?
    Is it all right to touch it?
[12:16] Ivy
    If I set it upright, will it be all right?
[12:27] Ivy
    It's right side up!
[12:37] Ivy
    I'm so glad!
[12:38] Ivy
    Let's see. This slime...
[12:42] Ivy
    "Because the slime is so weak, lifespans
    under a day have been confirmed."
[12:48] Ivy
    You're going to disappear within a day?
[12:53] Ivy
    "As they are rarely encountered,
    and because their lives are so short,"
[12:57] Ivy
    "they've hardly been studied at all and most
    everything about them remains unknown."
[13:03] Ivy
    But that's just...
[13:17] Ivy
    Oh no!
[13:28] Ivy
    It's safe.
[13:42] Ivy
    Someone needs to protect you.
[13:47] Ivy
    Don't you think?
[13:51] Ivy
    Or do you not want that?
[13:56] Ivy
    I don't understand.
[14:01] Ivy
    I don't understand,
    but I'll be a windbreak for you.
[14:06] Ivy
    If you're destined to disappear within a day,
[14:09] Ivy
    then let's stay together until that happens.
[14:21] Ivy
    The gods don't play fair, do they?
[14:24] Ivy
    They create people who are happy,
    but they make people like us, too.
[14:29] Ivy
    You see, the humans here in Ordoguz,
[14:31] Ivy
    they all receive skills
    when they turn five years old.
[14:36] Ivy
    My father has two-star carpentry
    and processing skills.
[14:41] Ivy
    My mother has a two-star needlework skill
    and a one-star mending skill.
[14:47] Ivy
    No one knows what skills they'll receive,
[14:51] Ivy
    and the number of stars the skill has
    is up to the gods, too.
[14:55] Ivy
    Everyone's futures are decided by
    those skills and the number of stars.
[15:04] Ivy
    When I turned five, I received
    a skill, too. A taming skill.
[15:11] Ivy
    It's the ability to tame monsters
    and win them over.
[15:15] Ivy
    But it's a starless skill.
[15:17] Ivy
    That's right. I'm a starless tamer.
[15:20] Ivy
    Forget about monsters,
    I can't even tame small animals.
[15:25] Ivy
    When they found out I was starless,
    everyone's attitudes toward me changed.
[15:30] Ivy
    Even my kind father and mother...
[15:34] Ivy
    they stopped even looking at me.
[15:38] Ivy
    My food and my home,
    all of it was gone.
[15:43] Ivy
    The place I belonged was gone.
[15:46] Ivy
    But I do have one thing
    that other people don't have.
[15:52] Ivy
    Memories of my past life.
[15:55] Ivy
    Apparently, I'm a human who
    reincarnated here from a different world.
[15:59] Ivy
    They're hazy, but I have
    memories of that past life.
[16:03] Ivy
    They pretty much never prove useful though.
[16:06] Ivy
    They'll just suddenly whisper
    something that I can't understand.
[16:09] Ivy
    Huh? "Sometimes the things
    I say are useful"?
[16:14] Ivy
    And there was someone who was kind to me.
[16:17] Ivy
    The fortune teller.
[16:19] Ivy
    She gave me lots of different books
    and taught me lots of different things.
[16:23] Ivy
    This magic bag was given to me
    by that fortune teller, too!
[16:27] Ivy
    It's an older model, so it
    doesn't perform very well,
[16:30] Ivy
    but it can hold lots of stuff and everything
    inside gets lighter, so it's really handy.
[16:36] Ivy
    It helped me survive in the forest.
[16:39] Ivy
    The fortune teller died recently.
[16:45] Ivy
    I've really lost everyone.
[16:48] Ivy
    There isn't anyone who will look at me now.
[16:55] Ivy
    The people from the village
    are trying to kill me.
[17:00] Ivy
    The village head, and my father... everyone.
[17:05] Ivy
    Even though I didn't do anything.
[17:08] Ivy
    Even though I can't do anything.
[17:13] Ivy
    It's all because I was born starless.
[17:15] Ivy
    It's because I can't do anything.
[17:18] Ivy
    Is being starless really that bad?
[17:22] Ivy
    Is it really something
    that should be hated so much?
[17:27] Ivy
    Is this world saying
    that it doesn't want me?
[17:36] Ivy
    And you, little one, were born with
    the fate of disappearing within a day.
[17:42] Ivy
    This world isn't fair, is it?
[17:46] Ivy
    Right?
[17:49] Ivy
    It's not?
[17:51] Ivy
    Well, I don't know.
[17:53] Ivy
    I don't know, but I'm glad to have met you.
[17:57] Ivy
    I don't know, but it's all right
    to feel this way, isn't it?
[18:01] Ivy
    Yes. You're my very first friend!
[18:06] Ivy
    So, let's stay together until the very end!
[18:29] Ivy
    Where... Where are you?
[18:35] Ivy
    Little one...
[18:39] Ivy
    Where did you go?
[18:46] Ivy
    It can't be...
[18:49] Ivy
    If the world says it doesn't want you...
[18:51] Ivy
    is there nothing you can do about it?
[18:56] Ivy
    "Lonely"?
[18:58] Ivy
    I suppose I am. I thought
    I was used to it, though.
[19:04] Ivy
    That's right. I'm used to this.
[19:11] Ivy
    I'm not lonely.
[19:13] Ivy
    I was alone to begin with.
[19:15] Ivy
    I'll do what the fortune teller told me
    to do and head for the royal capital.
[19:26] Ivy
    I managed to get my hands
    on a map, after all.
[19:38] Ivy
    It's you!
[19:42] Ivy
    You're alive! You didn't disappear!
[19:47] Ivy
    So, disappearing within
    a day was a lie, wasn't it?
[19:52] Ivy
    If it's a lie, then...
[20:04] Ivy
    There it is.
[20:06] Ivy
    "When taming a monster,"
[20:10] Ivy
    "first pass a little magical
    energy to the monster."
[20:15] Ivy
    "If the monster accepts it,
    a glow will appear."
[20:18] Ivy
    "Name the monster while it's in that state."
[20:23] Ivy
    "If successful, a mark showing that
    it's tamed will appear on the monster."
[20:28] Ivy
    I'm a starless tamer.
[20:31] Ivy
    Can I really do this?
[20:35] Ivy
    Can I do this?
[20:40] Lyrics
    When I'm alone, I can breathe
[20:44] Lyrics
    In a world with no one
    but me, I feel at ease
[20:49] Lyrics
    But I think the truth is
[20:53] Lyrics
    That I've been waiting for
    morning's light to break through
[20:57] Lyrics
    (Where could it be?)
[20:59] Lyrics
    Beyond the edges of a yet unknown map
[20:59] Ivy; internal
    Did I do it?
[21:02] Ivy; internal
    I have to give it a name.
[21:02] Lyrics
    That's where I'll find a place
    where I can live
[21:05] Lyrics
    (If it exists...)
[21:05] Ivy; internal
    It's a blue color, so... Ao? Or, Blue?
[21:07] Lyrics
    I'd like to go there
[21:09] Lyrics
    And with trembling legs,
    I take a step forward
[21:12] Ivy; internal
    Blue sky...
[21:13] Lyrics
    I'm on a journey without end
[21:15] Ivy
    That's it!
[21:17] Lyrics
    I'll take everything I feel
[21:18] Ivy
    Your name is Sora! It means sky!
[21:20] Lyrics
    And pack it into my once empty bag
[21:22] Lyrics
    I'll go as far as I need to
[21:23] Lyrics
    On this journey to find myself
[21:26] Lyrics
    And everything I'm given along the way
[21:28] Lyrics
    Will slowly fill my heart to the brim
[21:34] Ivy
    It worked!
[21:41] Ivy
    Your name is Sora.
[21:42] Lyrics
    Now, I'm not all alone anymore
[21:43] Ivy
    My name is...
[21:46] Lyrics
    Because I've met new, dear friends
[21:48] Ivy; internal
    That's right. I'm not Femicia anymore.
[21:51] Lyrics
    (Maybe we can understand each other
    because we're alike. Isn't it strange?)
[21:52] Ivy; internal
    I cast aside that name
    along with that village.
[21:56] Ivy; internal
    The name of a plant that thrives
    even if it's stomped on.
[21:56] Lyrics
    Your bright laughter gives me courage
[21:59] Ivy; internal
    My name is Ivy!
[21:59] Lyrics
    (I feel like I'm wrapped up
    snugly by your warmth)
[22:02] Ivy
    Sora, I'm looking forward to
    knowing you better!
[22:03] Lyrics
    From now on, let's stay
    together forever and ever
[22:11] Lyrics
    You are not alone
[22:15] Lyrics
    Open your eyes
[22:18] Lyrics
    That’s the way
[22:20] Lyrics
    You’ll be fine
[22:25] Lyrics
    All of us are here now
[22:29] Lyrics
    You’re something special
[22:35] Lyrics
    Please just relax, and move forward
[22:43] Lyrics
    Because you are here now
[22:47] Lyrics
    The world is so beautiful
[22:52] Lyrics
    This place is full of light
[22:58] Lyrics
    You had countless nights of tears
[23:05] Lyrics
    But you walked all the way here
[23:12] Lyrics
    If it’s dark we’ll be your light
[23:18] Lyrics
    You see the end of this road
    is crystal clear
