Karol: That moving fortress that attacked that monster was amazing... What'd you call it? Heracles?
Yuri: That was a monster, itself. I never knew the Imperial Knights had anything like that.
Estelle: I don't know many details, but it seems it was constructed under Alexei's orders.
Yuri: Without Heracles, we might all be in that flying monster's stomach about now...
Karol: Seriously. Heracles to the rescue.
ESTELLE: Oh my... Doesn't the city seem less busy than before?
YURI: Yeah. This place has gotten a lot more...ghost-towny.
KAROL: You don't think that rumor's true, do you?
JUDITH: Uh? What do you mean?
KAROL: I heard in Dahngrest that work's been getting tougher around here and the number of people leaving the city has been increasing.
I don't know if it's true or not, though.
YURI: Mmm... I wonder...
YURI: She has to do something about it.
ESTELLE: What do you mean?
JUDITH: You can see it on her face.
KAROL: If that's the case, we should go to the inn and have a strategy meeting first.
After all, we need to go check on the blastia too.
YURI: Yeah. And it's not like Estelle can just let things go...
ESTELLE: You just can't ignore people's problems, can you?
YURI: I know, I know.
KAROL: So then, let's go. To the inn!
JUDITH: He sure is getting into it.
ESTELLE: He's so happy that he was able to start a guild with Yuri.
YURI: Hey, it's not like I did this just for Karol's sake.
JUDITH: But you care about his feeling, don't you?
YURI: Yeah, well...
Come on, we should hurry to the inn.
Karol: We picked a name, made laws, got our first job... We're a pretty respectable guild, now!
Yuri: But are three members really respectable?
Karol: Why not? The Dark Wings--the famous thieves' guild-- they only have three members, too!
Judith: Quality over quantity.
Yuri: Too many people get to be a headache. I prefer a small group.
But you can't follow in the Don's footsteps and defend Dahngrest without a few more bodies.
Karol: Yeah, I guess... But, if we just put one foot in front of the other, I know we'll be big some day.
Judith: So then, you're saying we can take it easy.
Karol: No way! We've gotta give this guild 110 percent!
Yuri: Hah hah. Aye aye, Captain.
YURI: I guess I can't let things go either.
YURI: Late night stroll?
JUDITH: The scenery here reminds me of home.
YURI: Huh...Your home must be a pretty place then.
JUDITH: I just mean that it's up high like this and has a good view. Not that I have a problem with heights.
YURI: Heh... Yeah, I guess you wouldn't, riding around on that monster.
JUDITH: His name is Ba'ul, and he's not a monster.
And it's not only because he can fly.
We've been together ever since he saved me during the war.
YURI: War? You mean between the empire and the guilds?
JUDITH: This world always seems to ravaged by some war or another.
YURI: ...Yeah, I guess so.
It was you who attacked Estelle here earlier, wasn't it?
JUDITH: You're pretty sharp if you were able to tell who it was I was after.
YURI: I'm just that kind of guy.
YURI: Phaeroh also appeared because of Estelle.
Is there some connection between them? Between him and your partner?
JUDITH: It's hard to explain.
YURI: But you won't deny it. That you had come for her.
JUDITH: I'm afraid I'm not very good at lying.
YURI: ...All right, I won't ask anymore questions.
But if it looks like you're going after her again...
JUDITH: You needn't worry. I won't be doing that sort of thing anymore. You have my word.
YURI: You mean it?
JUDITH: What can I say that will make you believe me?
YURI: Well you said you were no good a telling lies.
...It's not like we're all that different. I've got a few skeletons in my closet too.
JUDITH: He's a strange one.
ESTELLE: Well, shall we have a look around the town?
KAROL: We also need to have a look at the blastia that went berserk last time.
Estelle: Now that we have a goal and a destination, I'm so excited about continuing our journey!
Yuri: This is a lot bigger than when we were just escaping the capital and chasing after Flynn.
We're out to find a mysterious talking monster.
Estelle: And to get over to Desier, we'll need to cross the sea again...
I think the Sands of Kogorh will be a hot and harsh environment, too.
Still, I can't help but be excited that I get to continue my journey!
New landscapes we've never seen are waiting for us, just past the horizon!
Yuri: Well, just don't forget what we're out here for.
Estelle: I know.
ESTELLE: It seems like the area has returned to normal.
KAROL: Yeah. Doesn't look like its gone berserk since then.
YURI: Hey, it's those guy we met at Nor Harbor...
PAULY: Miss Estelle!
ESTELLE: How have you been?
JUDITH: Who is this?
KAROL: We helped these people out at Nor Harbor.
KELLAS: We can't thank you enough for all you've done for us.
ESTELLE: Where is your father?
KELLAS: I haven't seen Teagle --my husband -- for the past three days...
KAROL: It sounds like that rumor might be true...
YURI: Don't you have any hunches?
KELLAS: Yes... The night before he disappeared, he talked again about working to become a noble...
ESTELLE: Become a noble? What do you mean?
KELLAS: When this city is finally completed, we will be able to live here as members of the nobility.
ESTELLE: Huh? That doesn't sound quite right.
KELLAS: What do you mean?
ESTELLE: The rank of nobility is reserved for those whose service has earned the emperor's confidence.
KELLAS: B-but, Sir Cumore gave his word to us! He said we would be welcomed as nobles!
ESTELLE: Cumore... From the Imperial Knights?
KELLAS: Yes. He is acting as the current magistrate of the city.
YURI: I'll bet he is...
KAROL: That is strange, though. I mean, the imperial throne is empty and all.
KELLAS: But then... Then why on earth have we been working this hard? And what about Teagle...?
PAULY: Is Father not coming back...?
ESTELLE: Hey, Yuri...
YURI: You're going to ask me why we don't take this on as a guild, right?
ESTELLE: I promise to take care of her fee when I pay my own.
KAROL: Well...okay, that's fine.
KELLAS: What? But I...
JUDITH: So this means our next job is finding a missing person.
YURI: And if Cumore's up to his usual stunts, we'll just have to slap him around till he stops.
ESTELLE: Right. The Knights do exist for the protection of the people, after all.
KAROL: L-let's just make sure we're careful.
The Knights could squash a little guild like us if we get on their bad side.
YURI: As you wish.
ESTELLE: We'll find your father, I promise. Just wait right here.
YURI: Well, that's that. We'll take the job.
KELLAS: Thank you. Thank you so much!
YURI: All right, let's go find him.
JUDITH: There's something very suspicious about that area over there.
YURI: Yeah. Even more so because it's marked off-limits.
ESTELLE: I wonder if there's some way we could get in...
KAROL: Careful, guys. Remember? Careful...
YURI: I'd like to pass, if I could.
GUARD: Sorry, no can do, buddy. The laborers camp ahead is too dangerous.
YURI: Hmph...
KAROL: Thank goodness... Knowing you, Yuri, I thought for sure you'd try to force your way through...
YURI: Well, "proceed with caution", and all that. Boss's orders, y'know.
ESTELLE: But how should we get by the guard?
JUDITH: I really think forcing our way through would be the simplest and most effective way in.
KAROL: No, I won't allow it!
All we need to do is draw the guard away from his post.
ESTELLE: But how will we do that?
KAROL: ...Maybe by, y'know, seducing him with feminine wiles?
YURI: Well then...
Have someone distract the guards?
YURI: Estelle, you up for it?
ESTELLE: Huh? M-me? N-not a chance!
YURI: Not a chance, huh? Yeah, I guess you're not too sexy anyway.
ESTELLE: Erk...I'm sexy enough, thank you very much!
...Want me to prove it?
YURI: Sure.
JUDITH: Now, let's go look for something to get that guard drooling.
ESTELLE: Thanks!
JUDITH: You're certainly persuasive.
YURI: Nah, she's just easily persuaded.
JUDITH: That's for sure.
Karol: Hey, wouldn't Judith be the best person to seduce the guard?
Estelle: You too, Karol? Hmph! I can seduce people just fine!
Judith: Heh heh. You're cute when you're frustrated.
Karol: I get the feeling even her personality's changing...
Yuri: Hah hah. You travel this big old world long enough, anybody'd change.
Judith: Don't blow it out of proportion. It's just seduction.
Yuri: Maybe to you, Judith. But to our dear princess, it's one of the toughest things she's ever done.
Estelle: I WILL seduce that guard! Just you wait!
JUDITH: Do you have an outfit that can attract any kind of male?
MERCHANT: Attract any... Are you gonna wear it?
How about this?
ESTELLE: Oo, it's lovely!
YURI: That's no good. JUDITH: None, no good.
KAROL: No good?
ESTELLE: Why? It's so cute...
JUDITH: If cute was what we were going for, you could've just stuck with what you have on.
YURI: Right. In other words, it's not sexy enough.
ESTELLE: Again with the sexiness...
Clothes that would look sexy on this young lady...
MERCHANT: Mmm... Let's see...
If you brought me a soft tail, basilisk scale and a small bird feather, I could make you something nice.
You should be able to get all of the items from monsters on the outskirts of the city.
ESTELLE: I guess we have no choice. Let's go.
YURI: Urgh, looks like this is going to be more trouble than we thought...
ESTELLE: Come on, hurry up!
JUDITH: Stubborn, isn't she?
YURI: ...You can say that again.
MERCHANT: Oh ho, you've brought the items.
Wait here while I make you something nice!
ESTELLE: What do you say? does it look OK on me?
YURI: ...Yeah, it actually does...
KAROL: ...And why is Judith changed in that outfit?
JUDITH: Well, I had mine made too while waiting.
YURI: ... I think your dress is kind of ... too unique...
JUDITH: Really? I think it is very lovely...
YURI: Anyway, let's have Estelle distract the guard as planned.
ESTELLE: OK.
YURI: Judith, can you do something about that outfit first.
ESTELLE: U-um... Excuse me Mr. Knight?
GUARD: Huh... W-Wha... You're wearing such a... Uh...
Hmm? Hey... You... No it can't be... Not in that kind of...
ESTELLE: Mm? D-do you know me?
GUARD: It's just that you look...a little like the Princess...
ESTELLE: ...Oh, y-yes, I get that a lot.
KAROL: Hehe, did you hear that?
YURI: Sss, pipe down!
GUARD: Come a little closer, could you?
ESTELLE: No, I'd like you to come to me...
GUARD: Why would you run away like that?
ESTELLE: U-umm... I'm just... ...a little bit shy...
GUARD: Ha ha ha...
ESTELLE: Tee hee hee...
KAROL: ...And as I predicted, it came to blows in the end anyway.
YURI: If we hadn't done that, Estelle would've been in a tight spot, don't you think?
ESTELLE: Yes, he might have gotten mad if he'd found out I was lying about my identity.
YURI: That's not quite what I meant...
JUDITH: All right, on to the next step.
KAROL: Huh...what?
JUDITH: It should be easier to go in if you dress like a knight.
YURI: Who, me?
JUDITH: Karol would work just as well.
KAROL: Wah, m-me?
YURI: Yeah, maybe you're right...
YURI: Karol, you do it.
KAROL: Y-you want me to dress up as a knight? But...will the suit fit me?
KAROL: Urgh, it's hard to move around.
YURI: Don't worry, you'll get used to it quickly.
KAROL: I wonder...
KNIGHT: Hey! Quit goofing off over there!
KAROL: Uh, uhh...?
KNIGHT: You should get back to your post before things get even more out of hand!
KAROL: No, you've got it all wrong! Wait, let go, heeeelp!
ESTELLE: ...Yuri, why didn't you help him out?
YURI: I, uhh...I was taken by surprise, it all happened so fast...
We should go and see what's happened...
ESTELLE: What could be going on in there?
YURI: Hmm, good question.
JUDITH: Karol is in there, right?
YURI: Yeah. Suppose we should go take a look.
ESTELLE: Rita...!
RITA: Estelle, what are you doing here...?
YURI: Was it you causing all that racket in here?
RITA: You guys...
JUDITH: Do you think Karol's all right?
YURI: Yeah...Karol...
ESTELLE: Karol.
RITA: What is that runt here, too?
RITA: What, you still want some?!
YURI: Hold up... Karol?
KAROL: Y-yeah... Rita, you suck!
ESTELLE: Have you calmed down?
RITA: Yeah...
ESTELLE: So, what are you doing in a place like this?
RITA: I thought I'd check out the blastia here, before investigating the aer kerene.
YURI: And you wound up biting off a little more than you could chew. Just like always.
ESTELLE: But what was it you got involved in?
RITA: They sneaked the blastia into the labor camp at night. I mean, that's already pretty shady.
YURI: Don't tell me you were sneaking around investigating it when you got caught.
RITA: Of course not. I was very stealthy about it.
KAROL: ...And then you got caught.
RITA: Well, I couldn't just sit around while they were trying to do something weird with the blastia.
The people here have been threatened by the Knights and are being made to work.
KAROL: I bet Teagle's in there, too.
ESTELLE: We cannot allow this to go on.
YURI: And what about this blastia you saw?
RITA: It was a hoplon blastia. It looks like they're gathering them up for a war.
KAROL: They wouldn't... You don't think they're planning on attacking Dahngrest again?!
ESTELLE: But why? After they just set up the friendship agreement...
YURI: It's gotta be Cumore. There's no way he intends to keep any promises he made to the guilds.
KAROL: Do you know him, Yuri?
YURI: You met him once, at Caer Bocram.
KAROL: Ah, you mean the guy with the creepy voice.
JUDITH: I don't mind discussing things here, but aren't we forgetting something?
KAROL: That's right! We've got to rescue Teagle and the others!
ESTELLE: Then we'll put an end to that forced labor, get rid of all the blastia they're gathering...and, um...
RITA: You can't just get rid of blastia. They need to be recovered and taken care of.
ESTELLE: Then we'll have the mages in Aspio come pick them up.
KAROL: Wait. We're being careful, right...?
ESTELLE: But...
YURI: One thing at a time.
ESTELLE: R-right.
KAROL: Okay, then let's get back to our original plan and head down.
ESTELLE: Okay.
RITA: Hide...!
MAN: Ah, milord. Are you sure you shouldn't be going to the Sands of Kogorh, now, Sir?
CUMORE: Humph. I don't have to pay attention to Alexei's orders.
Using the money and weapons I have, everything will soon be within my reach.
MAN: And I hope you'll remember to appreciate the work Leviathan's Claw has done for you.
CUMORE: Yes, you will be taken care of, Yeager.
YEAGER: You'll take those weapons I sold you, and attack the Union -- BOOM!
CUMORE: Heh. I'm afraid I have my sights set on loftier things than the Union.
YEAGER: Ignoring the Don is a big no-no. He is a wonderful guy, ja? Don't go forgetting that.
CUMORE: My my. It almost sounds as if you respect the man.
YEAGER: Respect him I do, but Leviathan's Claw always gets the job done.
CUMORE: Oh ho ho... Such dedication. That's just what I like about you.
Don't worry though. You are looking at the future Commandant of the Imperial Knights.
That fool Alexei, telling me to watch the Union while he signs friendship treaties with them.
YEAGER: Yeah! You tell 'im!
CUMORE: If it were me, I'd crush them in the blink of an eye with your lovely weapons!
The Union can't possibly hope to stop me.
YEAGER: Heh heh heh. Ja, ja...
RITA: Hey, that guy with the weird hair looked over her and laughed.
YURI: He definitely spotted us all right.
RITA: So he thinks we're funny does he...?
YURI: Man, it's always the same thing with these idiots.
So now we know theres a bunch of people being kept down there.
RITA: Yeah.
YURI: All right. Let's go free them from the idiots.
JUDITH: Come on, let's go find those poor people and help them escape.
Estelle: I'm impressed that you passed for a real knight, Karol, despite your height.
Judith: It's amazing. Especially considering he wasn't wearing the full suit of armor.
Yuri: That knight must've been so panicked that he didn't see anything besides your helmet.
Estelle: People usually notice things like that though, right?
Karol: Then why'd you put me up to this in the first place?!
Estelle: Heh heh heh.
Rita: What's with you? First you're panicked, now you're laughing.
Karol: You're pretty moody yourself, Rita.
Yuri: You're not really one to talk, Karol.
Rita: Just shut up!
Estelle: Heh heh. I'm so glad we found you here.
I mean, I gave up going back to the capital, so even if you had visited me, I wouldn't have been there!
Yuri: Oh, how sweet, Rita. You were gonna go visit Estelle.
Rita: I...I wouldn't go to the capital just to visit someone.
I mean, I have to report my findings on the aer krene. I just thought I'd say hi or something...
Judith: I don't know. That sounds like an excuse for a visit with Estelle to me.
Rita: Y-you stay out of this!
Yuri: Aw come on. We're all together again. Let's just be happy about that.
GUARD: What do you think you're doing, taking a break!? There's no time for breaks!
Lord Cumore's instructions clearly said construction is to be finished within one month!
WORKER: Ugh...
YURI: What do you think you're doing?
GUARD: Who the hell are you? You plan on going against orders as well!?
YURI: You guys are pretty unreasonable with your treatment of people, uh?
ESTELLE: Were you also told that you would become a noble if you came here?
WORKER: Y-yeah... It's the same for you guys too, right?
KAROL: Well... you could say that... but...
YURI: Now isn't the time for small chat. You should probably go back up for your own safety.
WORKER: Oh... umm... yes. I should let my friends know I'm safe.
Thank you very much.
RITA: Even if you spare him from the truth now, he'll eventually find out soon enough...
YURI: What are you saying? I don't think this is the time or place to be having a nice long discussion.
RITA: Hmph. Whatever.
GUARD: Workers who desert their posts are sentenced to one-hundred lashings, and drenched overnight! You knew that perfectly well, didn't you!?
WORKER: *Huff*... P-please, forgive me!
GUARD: You clearly abandoned your duties, and yet you beg to be forgiven? You don't deserve it.
WORKER: B-but sir... I can't even raise my arm...
YURI: You should leave it at that.
GUARD: How dare you!? How dare you talk to someone from the Cumore Brigade like that!? Inexcusable! Time to put you in your place!
YURI: Heh... you wish.
WORKER: You saved me... Thank you.
ESTELLE: No, it's nothing... by the way, what kind of work were you doing in this place?
WORKER: They're building a military base to invade Dahngrest.
RITA: Wait... aren't people coming here to work so "they can become nobles"?
KAROL: Yeah... that's what they said, but...
WORKER: It's being kept from the public, but it's really construction for a huge military facility.
KAROL: So in other words, they got decieved and are being forced into labor for something like that...
JUDITH: While officially, they're "building a nobles' city".
YURI: Was that also part of Cumore's orders?
WORKER: Yes.
RITA: Letting that idiot do as he pleases would be a big mistake.
ESTELLE: Cumore... this is unforgivable!
YURI: Anyways, you should probably go home...
WORKER: I-is it really all right to?
YURI: Well, I mean if you want to stay here, you can...
ESTELLE: It's all right. We'll take care of Cumore.
WORKER: Thank you very much!
YURI: Well then, let's go take care of Cumore.
JUDITH: Hmm? Look who's here.
ESTELLE: And a group of those red eyes...!
YURI: Looks like Cumore's become their new client.
KAROL: Hey, do you think that guy who talks all funny could be the red eyes' boss?
YURI: It sure looks that way from here.
CUMORE: Get to work! No slacking off, you worms!
TEAGLE: Urgh, ugh...
KAROL: Look, that's... It's Teagle.
CUMORE: If it's money you want, you'll have more than you can use. Now work! Work!
KAROL: Wait...
CUMORE: Wh-who?!
CUMORE: Yuri Lowell! What are you doing here?!
CUMORE: P-Princess...?!
ESTELLE: You have no right to call yourself a knight!
Brute force is not the way to honor the prestige of the empire.
Put down your weapons now.
You will also release the people you have tricked into coming down here!
CUMORE: This all might be easier if such a naive little Princess were to simply disappear.
All of your utopian ramblings make me sick!
YURI: That's not the kind of thing someone with delusions of becoming Commandant of the Knights would say.
TEAGLE: It's you...!
ESTELLE: You'll be all right now.
CUMORE: Yeager! Get rid of them!
YEAGER: Ja, milord.
YEAGER: Nothing personal, you see. Just business!
YEAGER: You have won.
ESTELLE: How could the empire cover for such evil.
JUDITH: You should dry off first.
YEAGER: I must admit, you're very strong.
KNIGHT: Sir Cumore! It's the Flynn Brigade!
ESTELLE: Flynn...?!
CUMORE: Well, send him away!
KNIGHT: We tried, but he insists on coming down to perform an inspection.
CUMORE: That lower quarter lout. He simply has no tact!
YEAGER: Gauche, Droite.
GAUCHE: Yes, Yeager.
DROITE: This is our time to shine!
YEAGER: I think we better be making with the escape, ja?
KAROL: Aah...what is this?!
GAUCHE: Please step this way.
DROITE: Move! Move! Time to get a move on!
CUMORE: We'll get you next time!
JUDITH: What an original line.
ESTELLE: If we don't follow them they'll...!
KAROL: Wait! Our job is to rescue Teagle!
ESTELLE: But...
RITA: I don't know who's job is what, but are we following them or not?
FLYNN: Everyone freeze! That's enough!
YURI: Hey, just in time.
FLYNN: Yuri...?!
YURI: Can you get up?
TEAGLE: Y-yes...
YURI: Sorry, but it looks like something's come up. You'll have to head back by yourself.
Say hi to the wife and kid for us.
TEAGLE: I will. And thank you.
JUDITH: So we are going after them.
YURI: Yeah. I'm sure Flynn has things under control here.
Sounds good, Karol?
KAROL: Yeah. Plus, I think Estelle's going to take off after them any minute.
ESTELLE: Sorry.
RITA: Jeez! We're going after them, right? So let's get going!
ESTELLE: All right.
FLYNN: Yuri, wait!
YURI: Gotta run, Flynn!
FLYNN: Lady Estellise! this journey is far too dangerous for...
... Ugh.
Karol: I wonder why my bag works so well when I hit enemies with it...?
Rita: Huh? You don't know how your own bag works?
Karol: Yeah, not really.
Rita: ...Surely the bag just has a high level of aer conductance?
Karol: Aer...conductance?
Rita: It's a measure of how easily something carries aer.
The aer produced when you use strike artes must be easily conducted through that bag.
Karol: So that's why enemies get weaker when I hit them with my bag?
Rita: Exactly. It's the same as with my belt.
Different people have different items that carry aer for them more easily.
Karol: Wow, interesting... Thanks, Rita!
Rita: You sure don't know much about your own possessions.
Karol: I guess I'd better take good care of my bag
