[00:10] Craig     I'll go with you! [00:12] Ashaf     That makes twice. [00:21] Ashaf     Executioners work in pairs. [00:24] Ashaf     I take it you're one of them. [00:30] Craig     That's all the proof you     needed to pull the trigger? [00:38] Craig     You said you'd cleared me, [00:42] Craig     but you suspected me this whole time. [00:45] Craig     Adults don't play fair. [01:04] Owent     What? SIGN    Eloquence     and Silence SIGN    Final Act [02:59] Ashaf     Hi there. [03:03] Guideau     Before you die,     tell me how to undo the curse. [03:07] Guideau     You know something, don't you, jackass? [03:10] Ashaf     Given the circumstances, I suggest     offering to save me in exchange. [03:17] Guideau     I've got no clue how to help you,     and I'm gonna kill you anyway. [03:22] Guideau     Hurry up and tell me,     unless you want it to hurt. [03:25] Ashaf     That won't do at all. [03:28] Ashaf     Threats can't get you everything. [03:32] Ashaf     To get what you want,     you need to learn how to give, too. [03:35] Guideau     Yap, yap, yap. [03:39] Guideau     You sure don't know when to shut up. [03:42] Ashaf     There is a way to undo a witch's curse. [03:47] Ashaf     If you want to know what it is,     accept my terms. [03:52] Ashaf     Protect the girl. Protect Falvell. [03:56] Guideau     You expect me to guard a witch? [03:59] Ashaf     You have to! [04:01] Ashaf     You'll never undo the curse without her! [04:24] Sven     Hi. You're home late. [04:27] Sven     I had hoped to at least     let you say your goodbyes. [04:42] Sven     Seize her. [04:44] Villager 1     But... [04:45] Sven     Don't worry. She won't resist. [04:56] Sven     You're rather late. [04:59] Craig     Did you kill Owent? [05:01] Sven     Yes. The villagers wouldn't listen to me. [05:09] Sven     Owent told me before he drew his last breath. [05:12] Sven     She can't use her power     because of a witch's curse. [05:20] Sven     Yes, there's the curse's mark. [05:24] Sven     Good grief. [05:26] Sven     We spent half a year investigating     in case she was hiding her power. [05:34] Sven     What a shame. [05:35] Sven     Undoing a witch's curse is beyond us. [05:38] Craig     I guess we can't steal Falvell's power, then. [05:42] Sven     Right. We'll just have to dispose of her. [05:45] Sven     I hate to lose the Mystic Witch's power,      but it is what it is. [05:51] Sven     But my biggest regret of all, Falvell, [05:57] Sven     is that I won't be able to     enjoy your tea anymore. [06:06] Craig     Sven, if you mind that much,     want to call off the execution? [06:10] Sven     Craig, when it comes to tea,     the last drop in the pot is always the best. [06:19] Sven     I've sheltered and supported you myself. [06:22] Sven     You're a stranger to mistrust,     my sweet, innocent Falvell. [06:28] Sven     I savored my days as your dear neighbor. [06:32] Sven     Now, more than anything,     I want to taste the last drop. [06:46] Guideau     Stir up hatred against a witch and     toss everything she's got into a fire. [06:52] Guideau     "Dispel evil with purifying flame"      or something like that, right? [06:57] Guideau     You really stick to that     playbook of yours, Executioners. [07:02] Craig     What? I figured you had run away. [07:05] Sven     Craig, is this the woman     with the coffin you mentioned? [07:09] Craig     Yeah. [07:10] Sven     Well, now. [07:11] Sven     Don't tell me you came to protect Falvell? [07:16] Sven     Where did you come from? [07:24] Sven     How do you know how Executioners operate? [07:28] Sven     Just who are you? [07:34] Guideau     Out of my way! [07:35] Guideau     Get lost already! [07:37] Sven     A metal coffin? [07:39] Sven     Carrying this thing around     makes you stranger than ever. [07:43] Sven     What's inside it? [07:54] Sven     Well, the woman can wait. [07:57] Sven     I don't want anything     interrupting Falvell's execution. [08:02] Guideau     What's wrong with you?! Run for it! [08:07] Sven     How irritating. [08:19] Sven     You couldn't possibly escape, could you? [08:22] Sven     Kind little Falvell could never leave     Owent and run, even if he is a corpse. [08:33] Sven     Do you hate me? [08:35] Sven     I've never seen you make that face before. [08:45] Ashaf     You can't possibly escape the     Executioners without magic. [08:50] Ashaf     I know I promised to protect you.     I'm sorry it turned out this way. [08:55] Ashaf     But Falvell, you're our only hope now. [08:59] Ashaf     Now, listen closely, understand? [09:11] Guideau     Huh? What're you doing here? [09:15] Guideau     How many times do I have     to tell you... to run for it? [09:19] (Flashback) Ashaf     To get what you want, you need to give. [09:25] Guideau     Man, what a pain in the ass. [09:29] Guideau     You hate those bastards, right? [09:33] Guideau     I'll kick their asses for you. [09:37] Guideau     So do what I say and get lost. [09:41] Guideau     How will I undo this curse if you die on me? [10:09] Sven     You've seemed to be in pain since you got here. [10:15] Sven     As much as I hate to put you out of your     misery by dealing the coup de grâce... [10:30] Craig     What? [10:34] Craig     Who are you?! [10:47] Craig     Who are you?! [11:01] Guideau     Shit. I've gotten rusty. [11:06] Ashaf     Now there's a surprise. [11:09] Ashaf     I see. This means... [11:15] Sven     What are you all standing around for?! [11:17] Sven     Hurry up and grab the witch! [11:19] Sven     They're desperate to protect her! [11:22] Sven     Take her hostage! [11:24] Villager 3     That's right! [11:25] Villager 4     Quickly! [11:27] Guideau     A hostage? [11:30] Guideau     Like I give a shit. [11:33] Guideau     I'm done with you. [11:35] Guideau     I'll get revenge for you,     but protect your own damn self! [11:41] Falvell     People, I command you: [11:42] Falvell     don't move! [11:46] Villager 5     Huh? [11:47] Villager 4     I... I can't move a... [11:53] Falvell     Fire, I command you: [11:55] Falvell     go out. [12:02] Sven     What? [12:04] Sven     What's going on? [12:05] Ashaf     Oh, I see now. [12:08] Ashaf     So she has a witch's body, too. [12:14] Ashaf     By kissing a witch,     they undid each other's curses. [12:21] Ashaf     And you'd best brace yourself. [12:23] Ashaf     You're witnessing vocative magic.     A true rarity. [12:26] Ashaf     Everything in existence     is now hers to command. [12:33] Falvell     Executioner... [12:35] Sven     W-Wait! [12:37] Sven     Don't be hasty, Falvell! [12:40] Sven     Stop, Falvell! [12:41] Falvell     I command you... [12:42] Sven     Falvell! [12:43] Falvell     Perish! [12:54] Craig     Talk about power. [12:58] Craig     Both Falvell... [13:00] Craig     and that monster. [13:03] Craig     Forget curses. Those were more like seals. [13:09] Craig     Damn it. The whole world's full of monsters. [13:24] Owent     No matter how many times I hear about      Falvell's magic, it still blows me away. [13:29] Owent     It's only a day later,     and I couldn't be healthier! [13:33] Ashaf     I'd say things worked out because     you only had a stopped heart. [13:38] Owent     "Only"? [13:40] Ashaf     Falvell's still a child. [13:42] Ashaf     When she grows up, I doubt even     the dead will be beyond her. [13:48] Ashaf     Now, what will you do? [13:51] Ashaf     As I already told you, kissing a witch     only undoes a curse temporarily. [13:59] Ashaf     And the power to dispel     curses dwells in purity, [14:03] Ashaf     which means it only works once per witch. [14:09] Ashaf     So that just leaves the conventional method. [14:12] Ashaf     You need to find the one who cursed you. [14:15] Ashaf     And the Order can teach you about witches     plus lots of other things you don't know. [14:23] Ashaf     So what will it be? [14:27] Guideau     Lift the spell first, then. [14:29] Ashaf     What spell? [14:31] Guideau     That weird broth you fed me. [14:33] Guideau     I've been dying to have it      again for a while now. [14:36] Guideau     What kind of spell was that? [14:39] Guideau     Nothing I've eaten before     has ever made me feel like this. [14:44] Guideau     You did something to my body! [14:46] Guideau     Unless you've got a death wish, undo it now! [14:50] Ashaf     Do you mean you really can't tell? [14:55] Ashaf     Well, well. Dear me. [15:00] Ashaf     I see you have a lot you need to learn. [15:04] Guideau     Huh? [15:05] Ashaf     Listen. [15:07] Ashaf     No spell or curse caused that     strange sensation you're feeling. [15:12] Ashaf     It's something everyone experiences. [15:15] Ashaf     Given the way you speak,     I can guess how you'd describe it. [15:20] Ashaf     Namely... [15:21] Ashaf     "It was damn tasty." [15:33] Ashaf     Guideau, you have a will of steel. [15:37] Ashaf     You'll never bend or soak up     others' ways of seeing things. [15:43] Ashaf     Your fierce sense of self can even     shake off magical brainwashing. [15:50] Ashaf     Even so, you've learned a lot     in the three years since we met, [15:53] Ashaf     and you've changed of your     own free will, albeit gradually. [16:01] Ashaf     Yet just one unfortunate meeting     has sent you right back to that day. [16:07] Ashaf     Angela Anne Huell.     What a despicable witch. [16:14] Ashaf     I'm not fully recovered,     but I can more or less move now. [16:19] Ashaf     I have faith that what we've     built up hasn't crumbled, [16:23] Ashaf     and that this was just      a temporary outburst. [16:27] Ashaf     I still have something I want      to teach you more than anything. [16:34] Guideau     Wait. [16:36] Guideau     What does that mean? [16:38] Ashaf     Do you imagine I'm still keeping     useful information from you? [16:46] Ashaf     It's nothing like that. [16:49] Ashaf     Love, Guideau. [16:52] Ashaf     I want to teach you what love is. [17:05] Ashaf     I assume you know that     our world has eight continents. [17:10] Ashaf     The world's most influential     organization, the Global Holy Church, [17:14] Ashaf     has its headquarters on the First Continent. SIGN    First Continent [17:17] Ashaf     The Second Continent lies east     of that, followed by the Third. SIGN    Second Continent SIGN    Third Continent [17:24] Ashaf     The farther you go from the progenitor     of magic, the Global Holy Church, [17:30] Ashaf     the lower the level of     magical civilization grows. [17:34] Ashaf     But the Eighth Continent,     the farthest from the First, [17:38] Ashaf     flourishes through its     own distinctive sorcery. [17:42] Ashaf     You live on the Seventh Continent, [17:45] Ashaf     but you likely find it quite comfortable,     thanks to having the Eighth next door. [17:51] Ashaf     Well, that aside... [17:54] Ashaf     This world of ours also     includes a few anomalous areas. [18:00] Ashaf     Like the isolated island between     the Seventh and Eighth continents. [18:06] Ashaf     It has a hole in it. [18:08] Ashaf     A bottomless pit. [18:15] Ashaf     You might think,     "Where that pit leads, no one knows." [18:20] Ashaf     But not in the least. [18:22] Ashaf     That question has already     been thoroughly answered. [18:26] Ashaf     You can even book a tour, if you like. [18:29] Ashaf     Although for that,     you'd need privilege, wealth, [18:35] Ashaf     and the resolve to risk your life. [18:39] Ashaf     The Order has all three,     so we got approval. [18:44] Ashaf     This is the entrance to a hole     out of this world: the Fall. SIGN    (Tiered Worlds)     The Fall [18:59] Receptionist     We appreciate your visit, Mr. Ashaf. [19:05] Receptionist     Please proceed to your right. [19:16] Ashaf     The Fall has seventeen levels. [19:21] Ashaf     Each one connects to a     different, independent world. [19:27] Ashaf     The letters Angela carved     into that Executioner... [19:32] Ashaf     are part of a writing system from the Fall. [19:34] Ashaf     To outsiders, this is the only     place that comes to mind. [19:38] Ashaf     If we're going to pursue Angela,     we should find her or another clue here. [19:50] Guide     Welcome to Level Four. [19:53] Guide     Or the final floor leading     to Level Four, to be precise. [19:58] Guide     This level can be rather dangerous. [20:02] Guide     Even more so if its residents     recognize you as travelers. [20:07] Guide     This floor offers services     including changes of wardrobe [20:11] Guide     and local coordinators     well-versed in the level's customs. [20:17] Ashaf     No, thank you. [20:20] Ashaf     Show us to the dressing rooms. [20:26] Stylist     What may I do for you? [20:28] Ashaf     Let me see... [20:29] Ashaf     We'd prefer middle-class outfits, [20:32] Ashaf     and we'd like to visit     upper-class venues, as well. [20:36] Stylist     Certainly, sir. [20:38] Ashaf     Give us outfits for ten days,      plus a few spares. [20:42] Stylist     That will be a lot to carry. [20:45] Stylist     I'll prepare a servant and carriage, as well. [20:49] Stylist     Or will you store them in that bag? [20:53] Ashaf     No, I'd like the carriage for this coffin. [20:57] Ashaf     As you guessed, my case can fit most things, [21:01] Ashaf     but this has too much mass to compress. [21:05] Stylist     Understood. [21:07] Ashaf     And one last request. [21:10] Ashaf     We'd like some all-black outfits. [21:14] Ashaf     Several sets of those, too. [21:17] Stylist     Um, wearing all black on this level signals... [21:21] Ashaf     Oh, don't worry. [21:24] Ashaf     I know. [21:27] Stylist     Please wait a few moments, then. [21:32] Ashaf     Now we're ready. [21:36] Ashaf     How does your outfit feel? [21:38] Guideau     Who cares? It's just cloth. [21:41] Guideau     It's all the same as long as I can tear it up. [21:44] Ashaf     You will, of course,     keep it all clean and intact. [21:47] Guideau     In that case, it's a pain      in the ass to move in. [21:51] Ashaf     Comfort aside, it suits you to a T. [22:01] Ashaf     That said... [22:03] Ashaf     You'll have no shortage of chances     to ruin your clothes in this world. [22:09] Ashaf     Now, shall we go? [22:13] Ashaf     Level Four: Orlencia Sett. [22:17] Ashaf     A world where vampires dwell.
