[00:21] Genho
    Okay, keep their vanguard pinned down!
[00:24] Genho
    They're sure to do something to
    try to take back the initiative!
[00:33] Ozen
    Trap them from both sides!
[00:36] Ozen
    We can win it here on the right flank!
[00:39] Shis
    Push on and crush them!
[00:41] Yashmah
    Don't let even an ant escape, everyone!
[00:51] Itak
    Good! Keep going, and don't
    give them time to recover!
[00:55] Soyankekur
    Wait, Itak!
[01:06] Itak
    An ambush?
[01:07] Soyankekur
    Stop your pursuit!
[01:10] Soyankekur
    Deal with the ambushers first!
[01:20] Soyankekur
    They're reacting fast. Does that mean...
[01:23] Nekone
    We're at a stalemate.
[01:25] Nekone
    No, we're at a slight disadvantage.
[01:28] Kuon
    They're moving faster than
    we anticipated, I think.
[01:32] Kuon
    It's like they know everything we're doing.
[01:35] Haku
    The fight itself is an even match.
[01:36] Haku
    If anything, we have more soldiers than them.
[01:39] Haku
    But they're sending orders to
    their troops faster than we are.
[01:43] Haku
    We did everything we could to
    get orders to our men quickly,
[01:47] Haku
    but they're still faster.
[01:50] Nosuri
    If we go out there ourselves,
    we could turn it around, right?
[01:54] Atuy
    That's right!
[01:55] Atuy
    Their advantage isn't that big!
    We could turn it around fast!
[01:58] Nekone
    But then there'd be fewer people
    to protect our main camp.
[02:01] Nosuri
    That's true...
[02:04] Haku
    She's right. It's too great
    a risk at the moment.
[02:06] Haku
    But it would be effective.
[02:09] Kuon
    So you're doing it.
[02:10] Haku
    Yes. It's Raiko we're up against.
[02:13] Haku
    We can't win if we stay on the defens—
[02:22] Anju
    Wh-What's going on?
[02:24] Kiwru
    Reporting!
[02:26] Kiwru
    An ambush from behind!
[02:27] Kiwru
    Someone has set fire to our Shitourai!
[02:30] Haku
    Fire?
[02:47] Liveruni
    From General Raiko.
[02:49] Raiko
    How goes it?
[02:51] Maroro
    I just struck the enemy camp from
    the rear this very moment.
[02:57] Maroro
    Oshtor!
[02:59] Maroro
    I will kill you myself,
    even if it costs me my life!

[04:38] Ougi
    We lost the 5th and 3rd Shitourai.
[04:42] Nekone
    If we keep losing provisions, we won't
    be able to maintain an army this big!
[04:50] Kuon
    The fire's not stopping at all.
[04:52] Kuon
    They didn't just light it and run, I think.
[04:55] Haku
    Not many people can control
    fire to this degree.
[04:58] Haku
    It's probably Maroro.
[05:00] Nekone
    Brother...
[05:06] Haku
    If it's Maroro, he must be after me.
[05:10] Haku
    If I go after him myself, there'll be
    less damage to our army.
[05:13] Haku
    Nosuri, can you find some way to
    tell me where the enemy is located?
[05:17] Nosuri
    Of course I can!
[05:21] Haku
    Your Highness, may I put
    you in charge of the camp?
[05:24] Anju
    Yeah, leave it me!
[05:26] Irawaji
    We'll communicate the situation to you
    with our Ikusamanui whenever we can.
[05:32] Haku
    Kuon, there's something I need immediately.
[05:35] Kuon
    From me?
[05:41] Haku
    With any luck, we won't have to use it.
[06:01] Anju
    Both flanks, forward!
[06:03] Anju
    Entrap the enemy!
[06:05] Irawaji
    Pound the drums! Three beats!
[06:21] Liveruni
    Maroro, a message.
[06:24] Maroro
    There's new movement among Oshtor's forces.
[06:28] Maroro
    Which means...
[06:32] Nosuri
    That's him!
[06:36] Haku
    Follow me!
[06:55] Maroro
    Do you think you've separated
    me from my army, then?
[07:00] Haku
    I don't think so little of you
    that I expect to beat you
[07:04] Haku
    without cutting you off from your forces.
[07:09] Haku
    It's over! Surrender, Maroro!
[07:15] Maroro
    No! This is what they call falling into a trap!
[07:28] Maroro
    This is how you use fire in war!
[07:38] Nekone
    Hot!
[07:39] Haku
    Nekone!
[07:43] Haku
    So he used himself as a decoy
    to lure us to our deaths?
[07:48] Atuy
    That's no fun. I was looking
    forward to a fight.
[07:52] Ougi
    An old ploy, but an effective one.
[07:55] Nosuri
    What do we do, Oshtor?
[07:58] Maroro
    You're helpless, aren't you?
[08:01] Haku
    Kuon, give it to me!
[08:04] Kuon
    I've got a really bad feeling about this.
[08:07] Haku
    I'll explain later!
[08:08] Haku
    Kiwru!
[08:09] Kiwru
    Okay!
[08:10] Haku
    Tie this to the end of your arrow!
[08:12] Haku
    Make sure it won't fall off!
[08:14] Kiwru
    Got it!
[08:15] Haku
    Fumirul, I need you to do something for me.
[08:18] Fumirul
    I'll do anything I can to help.
[08:20] Haku
    And then...
[08:21] Twins
    Anything you need, Master.
[08:26] Maroro
    Haku!
[08:27] Maroro
    Finally... Finally, I have my revenge!
[08:32] Maroro
    I have slain the traitor Oshtor myself!
[08:38] Haku
    Okay, fire!
[09:00] Maroro
    My flames?
[09:02] Maroro
    What happened?
[09:10] Maroro
    Oshtor!
[09:11] Maroro
    How are you alive?
[09:13] Haku
    Traditionally, one defeats flame with wind.
[09:16] Haku
    There's more to using fire in war than
    simply burning the enemy to death.
[09:20] Haku
    A true master can make the flames
    both appear and disappear.
[09:24] Maroro
    Even if the flames disappeared,
    you shouldn't have survived!
[09:27] Kuon
    Yeah, it was a little dangerous, I think.
[09:31] Nekone
    Yes...
[09:33] Nekone
    But we had faith!
[09:35] Fumirul
    Oh, my. Your faces are all covered in soot.
[09:38] Kuon
    This really isn't the time, I think!
[09:42] Haku
    As the blast from the explosion
    blew away the flames,
[09:45] Haku
    Fumirul put up a shield,
    which Uruuru and Saraana amplified.
[09:51] Maroro
    You would take such a risk?
[09:54] Haku
    Your plan failed.
[09:57] Haku
    It's over.
[10:02] Maroro
    So in the end, I'm no match for Oshtor?
[10:06] Maroro
    Oshtor will succeed, and my armies will fall?
[10:10] Maroro
    Oshtor! Oshtor! Oshtor!
[10:15] Maroro
    No! This isn't over!
[10:18] Maroro
    Even if all my stratagems have failed,
    so long as I live, the war isn't over!
[10:26] Haku
    Why, Maroro?
[10:28] Haku
    What's making you do this?
[10:30] Haku
    There is no justice in Raiko's cause!
    You must know this!
[10:34] Maroro
    And you say your cause is just,
[10:37] Maroro
    do you?
[10:39] Haku
    We fight to kill Raiko, and free the
    capital from him and his false princess!
[10:44] Haku
    That's what makes our cause just!
[10:47] Maroro
    So it's just an excuse to start a war, is it?!
[10:52] Haku
    I won't make excuses!
[10:53] Haku
    We only want one thing!
[11:01] Haku
    To end the war as soon as we can!
[11:05] Maroro
    You're a liar!
[11:09] Haku
    Anything built on falsehoods...
[11:15] Haku
    will eventually collapse.
[11:18] Haku
    Especially if you build your
    rule on lying to the people.
[11:24] Maroro
    Then tell me...
[11:27] Maroro
    Weren't lies what brought you
    to where you stand today?
[11:33] Haku
    Yes... I have no way of proving
    right now that my cause is just.
[11:37] Haku
    But I know that Haku would want me
    to follow the path of righteousness!
[11:42] Maroro
    Haku... Did you just say that
    this is what Haku wants?
[11:48] Maroro
    You would dare tell me what Haku wants?!
[11:52] Maroro
    After you killed him right in front of me?!
[11:58] Haku
    That's right...
[11:59] Haku
    That's what's felt so wrong,
    ever since we met last time.
[12:03] Haku
    Maroro, tell me!
[12:05] Haku
    Where were you, and what did you see?
[12:12] Haku
    When I fled the capital, where were you?
[12:17] Maroro
    I was right there!
[12:19] Maroro
    I was there...
[12:22] Haku
    That's impossible!
[12:24] Haku
    You know that better than anyone!
[12:31] Liveruni
    Maroro!
[12:38] Maroro
    Oshtor! Oshtor!
[12:40] Maroro
    We're not finished yet!
[12:42] Liveruni
    Maroro, we must retreat!
[12:44] Maroro
    This war will not end until I have your head!
[12:49] Maroro
    Oshtor!
[12:55] Haku
    So, how goes the battle?
[12:57] Munechika
    Not well.
[12:58] Munechika
    The enemy troops react fast
    and show no weaknesses.
[13:02] Haku
    Raiko knows the art of war well, I suppose.
[13:06] Haku
    How much damage have we taken?
[13:07] Anju
    Everyone's doing well.
[13:09] Anju
    But Raiko's losses are less than ours.
[13:14] Irawaji
    I'm sorry we can't be of more use...
[13:16] Haku
    No, it's not your fault.
[13:18] Haku
    But...
[13:20] Haku
    All of his forces are moving in
    perfect lockstep across this vast field.
[13:25] Haku
    Is that possible?
[13:27] Haku
    But it's the only way to
    explain what's happening.
[13:31] Haku
    The court's forces are all
    acting under a single order.
[13:36] Haku
    How is he getting such precise
    information to his troops?
[13:45] Haku
    What is it, you two?
[13:47] Twins
    My skin is crawling.
[13:48] Twins
    Countless thoughts are flowing
    from those watchtowers.
[13:54] Haku
    Thoughts?
[13:58] Haku
    So that's it!
[13:59] Nosuri
    What do you mean?
[14:01] Haku
    The watchtowers!
[14:03] Haku
    Those are Raiko's eyes and ears!
[14:07] Haku
    He's using his Tiriryarai
    on a massive scale.
[14:09] Haku
    Watching the whole battlefield
    with multiple eyes,
[14:12] Haku
    and bringing all that
    information together to use?
[14:16] Haku
    And his orders are sent out
    via the Tiriryarai as well,
[14:20] Haku
    instantly transmitting them to his forces.
[14:24] Haku
    That explains the speed.
[14:26] Nosuri
    I don't quite follow, but should we
    just destroy the watchtowers, then?
[14:29] Haku
    It won't be that easy.
[14:31] Haku
    As you can see, there are countless
    towers across the battlefield.
[14:35] Haku
    Taking out one or two won't do any good.
[14:37] Twins
    It doesn't need to be all of them.
[14:40] Twins
    Somewhere, there is a powerful
    spellcaster acting as a relay point.
[14:44] Twins
    If we can defeat him...
[14:47] Twins
    What's wrong, Master?
[14:50] Haku
    Can you tell me where this
    "powerful spellcaster" is?
[14:55] Twins
    We can.
[14:56] Twins
    Give us a little time.
[15:03] Haku
    The left center flank, and the
     edge of the right flank...
[15:07] Kuon
    Both of them are the same
    type of watchtower, huh?
[15:10] Haku
    By sending the orders through both,
    he lessens the burden on each caster.
[15:14] Kuon
    And maybe he has a backup if one goes down?
[15:17] Haku
    That's probably part of it.
[15:24] Haku
    I really pushed you two, didn't I?
[15:26] Rulutieh
    Have some water.
[15:29] Twins
    Thank you.
[15:30] Twins
    We would recover faster if our
    master fed it to us with his mouth.
[15:33] Rulutieh
    That's not happening.
[15:35] Ougi
    So, what do we do?
[15:37] Ougi
    If we split our forces to attack two points,
    it'll leave our main camp less defended.
[15:41] Atuy
    We can't take out one and then the other?
[15:44] Kuon
    Even if we do take one down,
[15:47] Kuon
    if the other still stands,
    they can just regroup, I think.
[15:50] Haku
    We have to destroy them both at once.
[15:53] Haku
    With two strikes performed in perfect unison.
SIGN    Sounds like a pain in the ass.
[15:58] Haku
    But once they fall,
    his armies will be in chaos.
[16:02] Munechika
    And then we can launch an all-out attack...
[16:05] Anju
    And we've as good as won!
[16:07] Nekone
    But Brother, there are forces
    stationed around each tower.
[16:10] Nekone
    It won't be easy to get close.
[16:12] Haku
    Then we attack from a distance.
[16:14] Haku
    Fortunately, both watchtowers are located
    near the perfect spot for such an attack.
[16:19] Nosuri
    So that's where I come in, then.
[16:21] Haku
    With your archery skills,
    I know you won't fail.
[16:24] Haku
    If we use the Ikusamanui, as we have,
[16:28] Haku
    we'll be telling the enemy
    we're up to something.
[16:31] Haku
    Uruuru, Saraana, I want you to split up
[16:35] Haku
    and communicate with telepathy
    to send the signal to attack.
[16:39] Haku
    If we don't act now, we'll be helpless.
[16:43] Haku
    Can you do it?
[16:46] Twins
    What will you do, Master?
[16:48] Haku
    I'll go to the right flank with Nosuri.
[16:51] Haku
    The other, I will leave to Kiwru.
[16:53] Kiwru
    Me? I c-c-can't...
[16:57] Haku
    You're the only one who's anywhere
    near as good with a bow as Nosuri.
[17:01] Haku
    I believe you can do it.
[17:04] Kiwru
    Brother...
[17:06] Kiwru
    I'll do it.
[17:08] Twins
    Uruuru?
[17:12] Twins
    Master, take Saraana with you.
[17:14] Twins
    No! I...
[17:17] Twins
    It'll be fine.
[17:19] Twins
    We'll see each other again.
[17:20] Twins
    Yeah...
[17:27] Itak
    Uncle, the main camp is
    telling us to hold position.
[17:33] Soyankekur
    Seems the wind's changed direction.
[17:35] Itak
    What do you mean?
[17:37] Soyankekur
    My intuition as one of the Pillar Generals
     is speaking to me!
[17:45] Nosuri
    We're almost at the attack point.
[17:50] Kuon
    Oshtor...
[17:51] Haku
    Yeah.
[17:56] Haku
    Saraana.
[17:58] Saraana
    Master...
[18:00] Haku
    Are you all right?
[18:01] Saraana
    I'm just... fine...
[18:06] Haku
    You are?
[18:07] Saraana
    Yes.
[18:13] Haku
    The twins have been together
    since birth, they said.
[18:17] Haku
    They'd never spent a moment apart.
[18:19] Haku
    And I've forbidden them from
    speaking to each other mentally,
[18:22] Haku
    to avoid letting the enemy
    know what we're up to.
[18:25] Haku
    Perhaps I was too cruel...
[18:29] Fumirul
    Uruuru will be fine!
[18:31] Fumirul
    Everybody's her friend!
[18:35] Fumirul
    Oh, my...
[18:40] Kuon
    Fumirul can handle anything, I think.
[18:56] Uruuru
    Saraana...
[18:58] Kiwru
    Did she say something?
[19:00] Uruuru
    Nothing.
[19:01] Shinonon
    Big Sis Uru smiled!
[19:05] Atuy
    I wish I could've seen it!
[19:08] Shinonon
    If you smiled like that all the time,
    everybody else would smile, too!
[19:12] Atuy
    That's right!
[19:13] Kiwru
    Um, everyone... Please calm down.
[19:16] Uruuru
    Saraana, you can do this.
[19:25] Soyankekur
    Looks like I've got a few
    years left in me yet.
[19:33] Genho
    Oh, you came up to the front, too?
[19:36] Ozen
    We need to teach the kids
    to think for themselves.
[19:39] Ozen
    And if we're gonna fight, we should
    make it a fight to remember!
[19:43] Soyankekur
    It seems we're all thinking the same thing.
[19:47] Genho
    You've got that right.
[19:48] Genho
    I'll back you up.
[19:49] Genho
    Fight how you want to fight.
[19:51] Soyankekur
    I'll take you up on that!
[20:03] Shichirya
    Raiko! They're saying the Pillar Generals
    have attacked the right flank personally!
[20:07] Raiko
    Ignore them.
[20:09] Raiko
    They're strong enough to change the
    tide of the battle on their own, yes.
[20:14] Raiko
    But their true target lies elsewhere.
[20:17] Shichirya
    What do you mean?
[20:20] Raiko
    I've already played my best card.
[20:23] Raiko
    The most powerful card I have at my disposal.
[20:31] Ougi
    Soyankekur and the other Pillar
    Generals have begun their attack.
[20:34] Haku
    Excellent. That will keep the enemy at bay.
[20:37] Haku
    Nosuri!
[20:38] Nosuri
    It's a ways away.
[20:40] Nosuri
    I need a moment to read the wind.
[20:43] Haku
    You have one shot.
[20:44] Haku
    You won't get another.
[20:45] Nosuri
    Who do you think I am?
[20:48] Nosuri
    I'd never miss a stationary target!
[20:51] Haku
    Saraana, how is Kiwru doing?
[20:54] Saraana
    I'll find out.
SIGN    This is as close as we can get without them seeing us.
[21:08] Shinonon
    Well, Kiwru?
[21:10] Kiwru
    Wait.
[21:16] Kiwru
    I'm sorry. Can we get a little closer?
SIGN    So you're telling us exactly how good you are instead of exaggerating.
SIGN    You've grown up.
[21:25] Shinonon
    You've grown up, Kiwru!
[21:31] Saraana
    They need just a little more time.
[21:34] Haku
    Got it.
[21:35] Nosuri
    Leave it to me. I'll match his timing perfectly!
[21:38] Mikazuchi
    So you did come here!
[21:54] Mikazuchi
    I've been waiting...
[21:57] Mikazuchi
    Oshtor!
[21:59] Haku
    Mikazuchi!
