[00:15] Tinasha     To see you. [00:18] Oscar     Nice pickup line. [00:22] Oscar     It's obvious that she's just toying with me. [00:25] Oscar     How infuriating. [00:27] Oscar     And yet... SIGN    It's time for a new history to begin. SIGN    ~ Emerging from a Glass Cocoon ~ [02:14] Oscar     A band of thieves calling themselves     Saterne has turned up? [02:17] Lazar     Yes. [02:19] Oscar     The Saterne are even nastier than the Ito. [02:21] Oscar     They kill women and children,     as well as burn down cities. [02:26] Oscar     Why don't we have Als take charge here? [02:28] Lazar     As you wish. [02:33] Tinasha     That wyvern woman ended up     committing suicide in custody. [02:37] Tinasha     We still don't know     who spread that animal blood, [02:39] Tinasha     or who tried to take a shot at Oscar. [02:45] Oscar     What are you doing out here? [02:47] Tinasha     I was taking a walk for a change of scenery. [02:49] Oscar     You're free to roam the palace grounds. [02:51] Oscar     Just don't get lost. [02:53] Tinasha     It's fine if I end up lost,     since I can just teleport back. [02:58] Tinasha     That hurts! [02:58] Tinasha     What'd I do? [03:00] Oscar     I leave the castle for     a fortress inspection in two days. [03:03] Oscar     Als will be away for other reasons. [03:05] Oscar     If you need anything,     let us know sooner than later. [03:08] Oscar     That's not good. [03:09] Oscar     Should I have moved my schedule back? [03:12] Oscar     Tinasha, why don't you— [03:13] Tinasha     Will you be fine going all by yourself? [03:16] Tinasha     Isn't that dangerous? [03:19] Oscar     I can handle myself, unlike you. [03:21] Oscar     Be good and stay put. [03:23] Tinasha     I'll be fine. [03:24] Tinasha     I'm not a little kid, you know. SIGN    Ynureid Fortress Northwestern Farsas, Bordering Druza [03:28] Officer A     Under General Als's command, we've     largely finished subduing the Saterne. [03:33] Oscar     Things are almost going a little too smoothly. [03:36] Officer B     Your Highness! [03:37] Officer B     The surviving Saterne     have just stormed the castle! [03:40] Officer B     They've abducted the Tuldarr princess! [03:43] Officer B     In exchange for the hostage,     they're demanding we hand over Akashia! [03:47] Oscar     That moron... SIGN    Saterne Band of Armed Thieves [03:53] Saterne A     We nabbed her because     she was just standing there, [03:56] Saterne A     but to think she was a princess! SIGN    Jarno Druza Mage, Successor to Molcado [03:58] Jarno     We couldn't have asked for a better hostage. [04:01] Jarno     Once Akashia is in our hands, kill that woman. [04:04] Jarno     You'll be paid double once you do. [04:06] Saterne B     Double?! [04:07] Saterne C     Really?! [04:08] Saterne A     What a shame. [04:10] Saterne A     She's the best-looking broad I've ever seen! [04:13] Jarno     You can forget that deal if you sell her off. [04:15] Saterne A     Tsk! [04:16] Jarno     That's a sealing ornament     filled with sleeping drugs. [04:18] Jarno     Don't you dare take it off. [04:20] Jarno     Put on as many as you can if you have them. [04:23] Young Man     What are you doing? [04:25] Jarno     Just a little insurance. [04:27] Jarno     No matter how powerful a mage you may be, [04:29] Jarno     you're susceptible to psychological     spells when unconscious. [04:41] Oscar     I'm here. [04:42] Oscar     Where is she? [04:45] Jarno     Put the sword in its scabbard     and throw it here. [04:47] Oscar     Wake her up first. [04:49] Oscar     I can't tell if she's alive or not. [04:52] Jarno     Undo her wrist shackles. [04:53] Young Man     Wait! [04:54] Jarno     Even if she wakes up, there are at least     twenty sealing ornaments on her. [04:58] Jarno     Once the sword is ours,     I'll open up a teleportation portal. [05:02] Jarno     No need to worry. [05:08] Tinasha     Ah, my head hurts. [05:12] Oscar     Snap out of it, you idiot. [05:14] Tinasha     Oscar? [05:16] Tinasha     What's going on? [05:19] Tinasha     I was just... [05:23] Tinasha     Um... [05:25] Tinasha     I'm sorry. [05:27] Oscar     You'd better be. [05:28] Oscar     Don't let it happen again. [05:29] Jarno     Fork over the sword already! [05:32] Tinasha     You kidnapped me to get your hands on Akashia? [05:36] Tinasha     That's no good. [05:38] Tinasha     Please take this off me. [05:39] Saterne     Like hell we would! [05:44] Tinasha     Take this off. [05:46] Tinasha     Otherwise, it'll make it harder     to hold back on you. [05:53] Oscar     There's no need to hold back. [05:55] Oscar     They pillage and murder for a living. [05:57] Tinasha     I understand. [06:04] Tinasha     I can't aim like this... [06:07] Oscar     What are you doing? [06:08] Oscar     Get back here already. [06:12] Young Man     You won't get away! [06:23] Oscar     Rue your misfortune     for getting involved with her. [06:26] Saterne A     Hey! [06:28] Saterne A     Open the portal! [06:40] Oscar     Are you all right? [06:42] Tinasha     It looks like they cast a psychological     spell on me, so I'll undo it. [06:46] Oscar     What are you, a cat? [06:47] Oscar     Don't get dragged away so easily. [06:50] Oscar     But well, I'm to blame here for     allowing them to invade the castle. [06:55] Oscar     Sorry. [06:56] Tinasha     Wh-What's gotten into you? [06:59] Tinasha     It's not like you to apologize. [07:00] Oscar     Are you asking for a cheek pinch? [07:02] Tinasha     No, thank you! [07:05] Tinasha     Um, if something similar happens again,     please pick Akashia instead of me. [07:11] Oscar     Don't let it happen again, idiot. [07:13] Tinasha     No, that's not my point. [07:15] Tinasha     I'm someone who shouldn't     exist in the first place, [07:19] Tinasha     so Tuldarr won't be much worse off without me. [07:23] Oscar     Don't you treasure your own country? [07:27] Tinasha     I care about it. [07:29] Oscar     Then do a better job     understanding your own value. [07:32] Oscar     At least realize that if you're freed, [07:34] Oscar     you can take Akashia back even if it's stolen. [07:39] Tinasha     Oscar... [07:42] Oscar     Rest assured. [07:43] Oscar     I value my kingdom more than you. [07:46] Oscar     You just happened to be     within arm's reach this time. [07:53] Jarno     I didn't think she could shrug off so many     sealing ornaments and use her powers... [07:59] Jarno     Perhaps we need to eliminate     both Akashia and that woman. [08:04] Jarno     Still, with so much power,     she'll make a perfect pawn. [08:10] Jarno     The psychological spell I cast— [08:11] Mila     What are you up to, [08:13] Mila     with that creepy smile on your face? [08:17] Mila     I'll make you a present for my master. [08:24] Tinasha     A shoddily composed spell     like this won't work on me. [08:28] Tinasha     Who's there? [08:29] Oscar     It's me. [08:31] Tinasha     Oscar?! [08:35] Oscar     Put some clothes on before you open the door. [08:37] Oscar     Why must you be like this? [08:39] Tinasha     I-I'm sorry. [08:44] Oscar     How are you feeling? [08:46] Tinasha     I'm fine. [08:47] Tinasha     I broke the hypnosis cast on me     while I was captured. [08:52] Oscar     You're... [08:55] Tinasha     What? [08:58] Mila     Lady Tinasha, I'm back. [09:01] Tinasha     Welcome back, Mila. [09:04] Mila     A-Am I interrupting you? [09:06] Oscar     Don't mind me. [09:07] Oscar     Who's that man? [09:09] Mila     A present. [09:14] Mila     Molcado fled to the east of Tuldarr,     or what is now Druza, [09:17] Mila     where he was survived by his descendants. [09:21] Mila     Members of the Druza royal court are     the ones controlling wyverns at present. [09:25] Mila     They're summoning hordes of wyverns, [09:27] Mila     and using those souls     to create a forbidden curse. [09:29] Mila     Akashia would hinder their invasion of      Farsas by nullifying the forbidden curse, [09:34] Mila     which is why they tried to take it     away from you by any means. [09:38] Mila     That's all I have to report. [09:41] Kevin     A forbidden curse... [09:42] Kevin     I can't believe they'd resort     to using that for an invasion. [09:46] Tinasha     It's most likely     a large-scale destruction spell. [09:49] Tinasha     But for something a normal human     would be able to handle, [09:54] Tinasha     they'd be limited to five shots at best. [09:56] Tinasha     Even if Akashia can counteract it, [09:59] Tinasha     it's hard to say whether its wielder     could survive the aftermath. [10:02] Tinasha     You'd most likely need to erect     a barrier to protect the user. [10:08] Kevin     Can I leave it to you? [10:09] Oscar     I can handle it. [10:12] Kevin     Let us prepare an army. [10:15] Kevin     And you can take the throne as king. [10:19] Oscar     What? [10:24] Tinasha     How will I act when faced with Oscar? [10:27] Tinasha     What are my feelings for him? [10:30] Tinasha     I don't know the answers to that. [10:32] Tinasha     However, I know what I must do. [10:36] Tinasha     I need to help and protect him. SIGN    Legis Prince of Tuldarr [11:01] Legis     I'm sorry about my father's     demands the other day. [11:04] Tinasha     Your Highness, I'm the reason that     the royal line of succession has changed. [11:10] Tinasha     Doesn't that upset you at all? [11:13] Legis     I was never terribly interested in the throne. [11:16] Legis     The spirits symbolize Tuldarr royalty, [11:19] Legis     so it's only natural that     their inheritor become our ruler. [11:22] Tinasha     I see... [11:24] Legis     And it's you of all people. [11:26] Legis     I have no objections. [11:28] Legis     If you can't stop worrying     about your succession, [11:31] Legis     why don't you try taking     an interest in me instead? [11:37] Tinasha     Is that Princess Nephelli of Yarda down there? [11:41] Legis     That's right. [11:42] Legis     They were at war ten years ago, [11:45] Legis     but Yarda and Farsas     are on excellent terms now. [11:51] Legis     Your magical power is unstable. [11:53] Tinasha     Huh? [11:54] Tinasha     Oh, sorry. [12:03] Tinasha     Oscar. [12:06] Oscar     What's wrong? [12:07] Oscar     Is there a problem? [12:09] Tinasha     No. [12:09] Tinasha     I've scanned the hall,     and didn't find anyone suspicious. [12:13] Oscar     Good. [12:21] Oscar     Go back to Tuldarr. [12:27] Tinasha     Go back? Why? [12:30] Tinasha     You can work on your analysis back in Tuldarr,     unless there's something you need here. [12:34] Oscar     You can come visit if you need me,     or ask me to make the trip. [12:37] Tinasha     I suppose that's true. [12:40] Tinasha     But what about when you go to war? [12:42] Tinasha     Even with Akashia, a human alone     can't withstand a forbidden curse. [12:46] Oscar     Your country has no say in this. [12:48] Oscar     It's none of your business. [12:50] Tinasha     I promise not to interfere.     Please let me stay here. [12:52] Oscar     I can't do that. [12:53] Oscar     What if there's another     incident like the last one? [12:55] Oscar     We've got our hands full as it is. [12:57] Oscar     I'd rather not have Tuldarr as our enemy. [13:00] Oscar     Return to your country at once. [13:01] Tinasha     Let me stay by your side. [13:03] Oscar     Stop obsessing over me. [13:04] Oscar     You're a nuisance. [13:20] Legis     Oh, no! [13:22] Legis     Please take a deep breath. [13:24] Legis     Control your magical power. [13:26] Legis     It's okay. You can do it. [13:31] Tinasha     Okay. [13:36] Oscar     I appreciate everything she's done for me, [13:38] Oscar     but I'm sure she has much     to prepare for her coronation. [13:41] Oscar     Please take this opportunity     to have her return to Tuldarr with you. [13:46] Oscar     Thank you for everything. [13:53] Tinasha     I sincerely apologize for my earlier behavior. [13:56] Tinasha     What you say is absolutely correct. [14:00] Tinasha     I cannot thank you enough for all     the generosity you have shown to me. [14:09] Lazar     You sent Lady Tinasha back home? [14:11] Lazar     With those exact words? [14:13] Oscar     The wording doesn't matter. [14:15] Lazar     Of course it does! [14:17] Lazar     That's an awful thing to say to her! [14:19] Lazar     What if she refuses to lift your curse? [14:21] Oscar     She wouldn't do that. [14:23] Oscar     She's got a strong conscience. [14:25] Oscar     The worst she'd do is replace it     with another weird curse. [14:29] Lazar     Your Highness... I mean, Your Majesty. [14:32] Lazar     Despite all your complaints,     I thought you'd grown fond of her. [14:35] Oscar     Not a chance. [14:37] Oscar     She'll eventually be Queen of Tuldarr. [14:40] Oscar     It's out of my hands,     regardless of my personal fondness. [14:43] Lazar     Does that mean... [14:44] Oscar     Let's focus on the war. [14:46] Oscar     I'm sick of having her toy with my heart. [14:52] Old Mage     Condemn. Lay waste. Consume! SIGN    Druza Mage [14:57] Old Mage     My captive souls! [15:17] Oscar     That leaves three shots. [15:19] Kumu     Not a trace remains     of the fortress we used as a decoy. [15:22] Oscar     Its age meant it was due for rebuilding anyway. [15:26] Oscar     Now then... [15:28] Old Mage     Keep going and drive them back! [15:30] Old Mage     Deal a devastating blow to Farsas here,     and we'll secure political power in Druza! [15:38] Druza Mage     It's the Farsas army! [15:47] Als     Leave him to me! [15:56] Als     Don't let them escape! After them! [15:57] Male Mage     C'mon, let's run! [15:58] Soldier     Where are the others?! [15:59] Als     Over there! [16:13] Male Mage     Let's run away. [16:14] Male Mage     We'll bide our time and strike again. [16:16] Female Mage     When?! [16:17] Female Mage     We can't create another forbidden     curse with our master dead! [16:21] Female Mage     Do you realize how many years this has taken?! [16:24] Male Mage     Hey... [16:25] Male Mage     You'll take out His Majesty, too! [16:26] Male Mage     Don't do it! [16:27] Female Mage     Death to Farsas! [16:31] Oscar     Here it comes! [16:32] Oscar     The third one! [17:08] Kumu     Your Majesty! [17:09] Oscar     Can you heal it? [17:10] Kumu     As a stopgap measure. [17:11] Oscar     Please do. [17:13] Oscar     Ettard. [17:15] Oscar     Take a third of our forces     and pursue the Druza army. [17:18] Oscar     Have the rest of them withdraw. [17:20] Ettard     Yes, Your Majesty. [17:23] Doan     The next one's coming! [17:25] Oscar     Two left, huh? [17:56] Oscar     I was sure you hated me by now. [17:59] Tinasha     I do hate you. [18:01] Tinasha     I don't want to see your face,     so don't turn around. [18:15] Oscar     Why'd you come here? [18:17] Tinasha     Even if you should forget, or I do... [18:21] Tinasha     No matter how many times     history is reset and changes... [18:25] Tinasha     I am your protector. [18:28] Tinasha     That will never change. [18:34] Tinasha     The next one's coming. [18:37] Tinasha     By the way, can you see spell compositions? [18:40] Oscar     No, I can't. [18:41] Tinasha     Let me lend you my vision, then. [18:48] Tinasha     Do you see the black circles? [18:51] Oscar     I do. [18:52] Tinasha     What about the lines that connect them? [18:54] Oscar     So I just need to sever those? [19:06] Tinasha     Yes, that's all. [19:24] Male Mage     Stop it! [19:26] Male Mage     Releasing that shapeless     magical power would wreak havoc! [19:29] Female Mage     Shut up! [19:31] Female Mage     Come forth! [19:32] Female Mage     Devour everything! [19:44] Tinasha     I don't believe we've met before. [19:47] Tinasha     I am the twelfth queen of Tuldarr,     Tinasha As Meyer Ur Aeterna Tuldarr. [19:55] Tinasha     Are you the ones who have inherited     the spells and crimes of Molcado the convict? [20:01] Female Mage     Th-The Witch Killer Queen? [20:04] Tinasha     If there are no objections,     it's time to punish your crimes. [20:07] Tinasha     It all ends here. [20:13] Als     We have slain King Rodion of Druza,     as well as his vassals. [20:18] Als     The two forbidden curse mages were found dead. [20:21] Als     We don't know who's responsible. [20:23] Oscar     I see. [20:24] Oscar     Assemble the army     and send half to the encampment. [20:27] Oscar     Send the other half back to the castle. [20:29] Als     Certainly. [20:33] Oscar     Tinasha! [20:34] Oscar     I know you're there. Come down. [20:38] Tinasha     How did you know? [20:40] Oscar     Instinct. [20:42] Tinasha     How annoying. [20:44] Tinasha     Did you forget I didn't want to see your face? [20:47] Oscar     That does ring a bell. [20:52] Oscar     You saved my life. [20:54] Oscar     Thank you. [20:56] Tinasha     It's nothing to thank me for. [20:59] Tinasha     I was just meddling. [21:01] Oscar     I'm thanking you because I want to. [21:04] Oscar     Also, well... let me apologize. [21:07] Oscar     I'm sorry for what I said. [21:08] Tinasha     You don't need to say sorry. [21:10] Tinasha     I know I'm clingy. [21:12] Tinasha     Of course you'd be disgusted. [21:14] Oscar     I don't remember going that far... [21:17] Tinasha     Also, I wasn't trying     to force you into marriage! [21:20] Oscar     Do you want to marry me? [21:22] Tinasha     Don't ask me that when you don't even mean it! [21:25] Oscar     Hear me out. [21:26] Oscar     I don't think I should be the only one     being saved all the time. [21:29] Oscar     Just like you saved me, I'll save you, too. [21:33] Oscar     So do what you want. [21:36] Oscar     Your room in the palace is the way you left it. [21:39] Tinasha     Do you think I'll never hate you,     no matter what you do? [21:43] Tinasha     That I'll always come running back? [21:45] Oscar     No, I don't. [21:47] Oscar     You don't want to see my face, right? [21:51] Tinasha     It's fine. [21:52] Tinasha     I'm prepared for you to toy with my heart. [21:55] Tinasha     I'll stay within arm's reach of you. [21:58] Oscar     You've already toyed with me plenty. [22:01] Tinasha     I don't know what you're talking about!
