Kelpie! Kelpie!
Kelpie, you're there, aren't you? I need your help.
What's the matter, Lydia?
It's most unusual for you to come to me.
I want you to save Edgar, please!
Why did you come here to ask me something like that?
He was poisoned.
Kelpie, you have the power to purify water, don't you?
You must know a way to cleanse the poison from his body.
No good will come from teaching a human.
Please tell me how. I won't tell anyone.
I'll be able take you back if he dies.
Lydia, I would like to marry you.
Marriage?
We still have that promise from before, so I can't.
But, I can live with you in the fairy world.
I can accept that.
Are you going to abandon your fairy doctor dreams for him?
I want to make amends with him.
If I can save him and tell him that I'm no longer angry...
Very well.
A clean taste like thawing snow from a spring.
What should I do with this blood?
Feed it to him mouth-to-mouth.
A kelpie's blood will lose its effect if it comes in contact with the air.
You have to be the intermediary to deliver it to him.
If you don't want to give it to him mouth-to-mouth, then just lick some place near where blood flows.
Ugh, you reek of Kelpie.
Don't do it, Lydia!
Bartering with a kelpie is foolish.
Hey, it's not that problematic if the Earl dies, right?
Let's go back home to Scotland, okay?
I'll probably regret it for the rest of my life if I didn't save someone when there was a way to.
Nico, thank you for everything.
Thank you for being by my side.
What about your father?
I'll write him a letter later.
Nico, even though I won't be around, can you please...
...be my father's drinking partner for a bit if possible?
Lydia...
I can't believe that I'm going to kiss a man on my own accord.
Did he say that anywhere would do?
That's it! His wrist.
Was there not enough blood there?
I was supposed to deliver it to him mouth-to-mouth without complaint.
Lydia.
It's going to be okay.
You're safe now.
I'm so glad it was only a dream.
Edgar?
I was old and on my deathbed.
Although there were people gathered around, I was in a panic because I couldn't find you.
Why do you think it is?
That I took it for granted that you'd be with me?
Why did I become so desperate when I thought you disappeared?
I tried so desperately to recall how I'd lost you.
I was so depressed because of that.
I don't hate you.
I wanted to tell you that I'm not angry any more.
I wonder if the Lydia who appeared in my dreams would also have said that.
Lydia, I wouldn't be troubled.
You said that you didn't want to get our distance wrong, but it's not like that.
I wouldn't be troubled, even if you came within reach, even if you jumped into my arms.
Edgar?
So, Lydia. Please stay by my side.
Will you fall in love with me?
I'll think about it.
You won't say that you won't, right?
How unusual for you to leave me a favourable impression.
It's because your life was just saved.
Being a sick patient isn't bad either.
Rest peacefully.
See you tomorrow.
Sweet dreams.
In the end, I lied to him.
I'm sure you'll be fine without me.
I insisted on settling things with Paul on my own.
Lord Edgar, you are my master.
I am always prepared to accept your decisions.
Raven, will you still work for me?
Yes, through thick and thin.
Master, Professor Carlton requests an audience.
Your Honour, the other day, I spoke of accepting Lydia's decisions.
Lydia chose not the human world, but the other.
You mean she chose to live in the fairy world?
Yes.
You should have been able to make her stay in the human world.
I'm not the one who's able to do that.
Your Honour, it wasn't you either.
It wasn't a human, but a fairy who prompted her decision.
A fairy? That aquatic horse?
Is it not possible to see her and talk to her in order to bring her back?
There's nothing we can do.
We just have to accept her decision.
Did she really choose the fairy world?
Did she really choose that horse and leave her father behind?
I wonder if Nico has gone with her.
Raven, you're brilliant!
So, in order to save me, Lydia agreed to marry Kelpie?
No, that's not it.
I believe it was due to Lydia's nature and her sense of responsibility as a fairy doctor.
How could she go with that barbaric fairy while she has feelings for me?
I don't think she does.
A person wouldn't normally do that much for someone they didn't like, right?
Well, Lydia isn't normal after all.
Nico, please tell me.
You're able to travel between here and the fairy world, aren't you?
All I ask is for you to tell me how to get there.
I couldn't possibly take a normal human to the fairy world.
How does a top hat and a pair of boots sound?
Those are required attire for a gentlemen, are they not?
But, Lydia made a trade with Kelpie.
Are Marigold and Sweetpea still around?
Hey, the Earl is calling for you two.
May we be of assistance?
I'd like you to take me to your queen.
What are you saying?
Are you going to accept a marriage with a fairy?
We'll need the moon ring.
The previous Blue Knight Earl said that the engagement vow must be exchanged with the moon.
Therefore, you must find the ring then accept it as proof of your vow.
Let's get the ring back first then.
What are you scheming?
You're...!
What's going on?
Whoever moves will die first.
You're still alive?
Well now, are you gentlemen members of the Scarlet Moon?
If you are kindred spirits who had taken the oath of blood to serve the Blue Earl Knight...
...that would make you all my servants.
What are you saying? You impostor!
This is coming from a group that calls itself the Blue Knight Earl's Guardian Fairy, a false Frandolen.
Silence!
You'll need the help of the Blue Knight Earl to clear away your grudge against the Prince, won't you?
It is I, the Blue Earl Knight, who is the master of the noble sword.
If it displeases you, then come at me if you wish.
That is if you have the *** to defy the Noble Sword of Merrow.
Why are you all hesitating?
Take the noble sword from the impostor!
He isn't one of the Prince's men.
He's a victim just like us!
Then why is he still alive?
All runaways are to be hunted down and killed!
Am I wrong?!
Then what about us? Despite losing our friends and relatives, we haven't given up our resistance.
From parent to child, teacher to student...
...haven't we carried these feelings through the generations, trusting the Scarlet Moon?
Most likely, I am the person who knows the Prince best within his organisation.
In order to fight the Prince, I wish to gain the services of the Scarlet Moon.
As you can see, the noble sword accepts me as its master.
Don't you get the feeling that we can win?
Your Honour.
Paul, could you please return the white moon.
Raven, I leave the rest to you.
Yes.
Well then, gentlemen.
I'll be gone in search of Gwendolen of the White Moon.
Please take your time to consider your reply.
Marigold, Sweetpea.
Well then, Your Honour, shall we get going?
Onwards to the fairy world where Her Majesty is waiting.
Real fairies!
Let's get going then.
Yes.
An impostor who shines brighter than the real thing...
I'll prepare all kinds of things in order for a human to live comfortably here.
Thank you.
Say Lydia, why don't you just forget about the promise of the moon?
Wait, what are you going to do?
Mate with you.
That hurt!
What was that for?!
I had heard that humans weren't violent like female aquatic horses!
We're not married yet, are we?
I guess it was impossible.
What was that? This is supposed to be my turf.
I'm going to take a look.
Lydia.
I must be really tired to be hearing Edgar's voice.
Lydia, hurry.
Now is our chance to run!
Edgar, what are you doing here?
I came to take you back.
But...
How cruel of you to leave without saying a word.
Hurry, he's going to come back!
Come on.
Wait.
I can't possibly run away.
I made a promise with Kelpie.
But, you fought well when your chastity was in danger.
You saw?!
I jumped out without thinking.
I was saved thanks to Nico throwing a frog into the river.
Lydia...
Did you think that I'd just be awestruck and do nothing after I learned that you saved my life?
This is the fairy world! I can't break my promise.
Also, you said that you'll love me.
You'd be breaking that promise too.
I didn't say that!
I said that I would think about it, right?
Then, don't leave without even thinking about it.
Hey, it's those two! Hide!
Your Honour?!
Where are you, bridegroom?
Don't tell me you got Marigold and Sweetpea to bring you here?
Keep your voice down.
That would mean you accepted the marriage with the fairy queen?
Well, they may have understood it that way.
They misunderstood? There's no way such a vague promise was made!
Where's the moon ring?
Here.
Even after I saved your life...
You're not someone who could be happy in the fairy world, are you?
You must marry the queen if you accept the ring.
And there'd be nothing that even I could do.
Hey, Lydia! We'll be found!
Is there someone there?
No, Lydia. You will be able to help me.
Marry me.
Don't be stupid!
Is it stupid?
As stupid as accepting a marriage proposal if you're given the moon?
Yes. If you can give me the real moon.
You heard that, right, Nico?
Yeah.
Lydia, this is the moon.
The real thing.
Wait a minute. This isn't the moon.
It is the moon. As long as you accept it as such.
What do you mean?
The former Blue Knight Earl didn't ask for the moon.
He said that the engagement would be official by exchanging vows with the moon.
Thus, not only do you have to accept it...
...you also have to put it on as proof of your vow.
But, listen, Lydia.
I've never put this on my finger.
Your Honour, there you are!
But, you're not in love with me.
Are my words that difficult to believe?
They are.
Very well.
Just think of the marriage with me as a makeshift measure for now.
Makeshift?
So in the end, that's your true motive.
No.
It's because, right now, I don't have time to show you how serious I am.
Your Honour, let's go, quickly!
We have to go to Her Majesty!
You all!
What the bloody hell is going on?
It's that barbaric aquatic horse!
Your Honour, hurry! This way!
Blue Earl Knight, you never give up, do you?
She's my bride!
No, she isn't. She's going to marry me.
Whoever gives her the moon can marry her.
You would have to give up then, right?
You sure have a lot of nerve. Do you really want to be eaten that badly?
Lydia, please.
A promise between humans can be taken back at any time.
There's something weird about that, too.
Do you know how depressed Professor Carlton has been since you left?
My father has...?
You'll never see him again. Is that really what you want?
Very well then, Edgar.
Please give me the moon.
Thank you.
I will cherish you forever.
Oi! Lydia!
I'm sorry, Kelpie.
I still have things to do in the human world.
Lydia...
I'm sorry, my fairies. Please give up on me.
Your Honour...
In that case, please have a son quickly.
You heard them, Lydia.
Don't get carried away.
I'm opening a portal back home.
I'll be here waiting until you've finished everything.
It won't be long anyway.
That's right.
For a fairy, twenty or thirty years must be pretty short.
Hello, Lydia. Good morning.
Thanks to you, we managed to settle everything without losing Paul.
It was because of your relationship from the time when you praised his artistic talent.
It wasn't because of me.
You advised him to become a painter, right?
I suppose.
He wanted to be a poet, but his verses were horrible.
His paintings were terrible too...
...but at least we can look forward to amusing the guests with the paintings we purchased to decorate the mansion.
Edgar, you...
You haven't changed since long ago, have you?
You're not wearing the ring?
It's fine as is.
Anyway, as long as I have it, it'll protect against interference from fairies, right?
I'll be going now.
I was planning on going to your house. Is the professor at home?
It's only proper to formally ask him for permission to marry you, right?
What are you saying?
We only made a makeshift promise, right?
You certainly did accept my proposal though.
You accepted the wedding ring, didn't you?
That's because you said that a promise between humans could be taken back at any time.
I don't remember saying that.
You're taking back what you said?
Let's get going then.
Ah, I still have work to do.
Didn't you just say you were going back?
No, I'm staying here.
Lydia!
So in the end, was that all the Scarlet Moon was made of?
I thought that we could manipulate them to ensnare him, but...
...looks like that wasn't possible.
Is that really all you have to report, Ermine?
I don't quite understand what you're saying.
I'll report what you gave me to the Prince.
Even after becoming a selkie, you're still bound by a human heart?
No. After becoming a woman?
