[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
