"So is everybody this lonely when they're in love?" "They embrace a pain that's deeper than the shadows?" "It's all to make us shine, I just know it..." "I love you, I love you," "I gaze at you with my heart..." "I believe in you, I believe in you, even on the coldest of nights." "I call out to you with my tears, but I don't need any promises..." "That's the precious strength you've given to me..." "Asylum?" "Zaibach's Strategos is asking us for asylum?" "Dornkirk's insanity knows no bounds?" "It's inevitable that Gaea will see the worst disaster in her history?" "That's why you're requesting asylum?" "No government can trust an enemy unconditionally!" "They're right." "This is too sudden." "I come bearing gifts, of course." "Folken's arrival changed everything." "It proved everyone's suspicions about Zaibach, andAsturia formed a military alliance with her neighboring countries." "Asturia took in Folken to obtain information on Zaibach." "But Van still didn't trust him." "Wouldn't it be enough to help out at the castle's shelter?" "I'm partly to blame for what happened to the city..." "Then why didn't you come by yourself?" "Nobody asked you to come along." "Are you trying to pick a fight?" "You grace us by coming all the way out here." "Not at all." "I'll do whatever I can to cheer up those who have met such hardship." "Don't push!" "There's plenty of food to go around!" "I'm gonna go help!" "Me too!" "Thanks!" "Me too!" "Zaibach may attack while we're doing this." "You're always thinking about war, aren't you?" "If you don't fight, you're just waiting to be killed." "You soldiers..." "Can't you think any other way?" "Zaibach is going to destroy Gaea." "just like they destroyed Fanelia." "Man..." "Hang in there, O King of Fanelia." "Candy!" "Candy!" "Do you have any toys?" " Toys?" " I want candy!" "Candy?" "Uh... just a second, okay?" "Hey!" "Don't pull my tail!" "Come back here!" "Merle..." "She fits right in." "Merle understands what they're going through." "All those kids lost their families." "Merle did, too." "I wonder if war is only going to make more children like them." "Van, what kind of games did you play with Folken when you were little?" "That's none of your business." "Sorry!" "Hitomi!" "What are you doing?" "Why are you here?" "Everybody else is doing something." "I couldn't just sit there and not help." "How could you leave the castle?" "Don't you realize how important you are to Gaea?" "You're always leaving without asking..." "Like when you went to Fanelia with Van." "I..." "I don't think that's any of your business, Allen." "Don't hide anything from me, all right?" "I..." "I'm not hiding anything!" "Hitomi?" "I'll go back to the castle later." "By myself." "Hitomi..." "Don't hold me tight, my love," "What's the matter with me?" "I got mad and told off." "Allen..." "I got mad and told off." "Allen..." "Just staying like this in your gentle arms is anough." "Your blue eyes, your beautiful foolishness," "I belieaved that everything about you was a miracle." "Swept along in their gondolas, people meet and part again and again..." "Do you miss your homeland?" "...in this brief midsummer," "Folken?" "where sadness and joy follow one another." "I see." "Van..." "I just thought I ought to straighten things out between you two, that's all." "Van never changes, does he?" "Why can't I get through to him?" "You aren't scared of me?" "I'm the man who used the Intensified Luck Soldiers to try to kidnap you." "I can't say I'm... okay with it." "But..." "But?" "If I were scared of you, you'd be on your guard, right?" "I don't want that." "If you don't trust people, they don't trust you." "My seeking refuge here may be part of a plot, you know." "Even if it were, I think you'd return that trust." "It might not come across clearly, though." "So that's your power..." "The Egzardia army's Triville has arrived!" "What about the advance forces from Palas?" "They're expected to arrive at the hour of ripla tomorrow morning." "The armies of Daedalus and Cesario, and even Basram..." "Looks like this is gonna be the first Great War in Gaea's history..." "What is it?" "Dispatch orders have come down." "Van and I will leave at dawn." "But before I go, there's something I want you to hear." "Prince Chid of the Duchy of Freid is the result of Princess Millerna's elder sister, Marlene, and me surrendering ourselves to an illicit love." "Prince Chid is my and Princess Marlene's son." "Allen..." "My heart wouldn't let me hide something from you." "Because I love you." "After knowing everything, would you still love me?" "Forever under the same sky..." "and in the same moonlight..." "Where am I?" "The floating fortress Delate." "Delate?" "Where's Shesta?" "He died." "Where's Gatty?" "He died." "And Dallet?" "He died." "Viole?" "He died." "They're dead?" "Dead?" "!" "Who are you?" "I am Jajuka." "jajuka?" "I am a soldier under your command." "I alone." "Alone?" "jajuka..." "Is my new Guymelef ready?" "Yes, sir!" "I haven't fought in a long time." "I'm looking forward to this." "Van, so this is where you went." "Allen?" "About Hitomi..." "She means nothing to me." "Yesterday, I asked her to marry me." "She's to give me an answer when I return." "I don't know why, but my heart is at ease when I'm with her." "Protect her." "I'll never let anyone take her, even if it costs me my life." "Prince Chid is Allen's son..." "Hitomi..." "Am I ever gonna be able to go back to Earth?" "Hitomi?" "What do you think?" "Princess, you really shouldn't!" "Oh, I don't think Dryden will complain if I do a little laundry." "Right, Hitomi?" "Probably not." "Um, Millerna..." "Yes?" "I need some advice." "Could you help me out?" "What could you need advice about?" "Well..." "I have this friend, see." "Yes?" "There's this guy she's seeing." "But she found out that he's really a playboy and he even has an illegitimate child." "But she found out that he's really a playboy and fathered a child that no one knows about." "You knew?" "You found out?" "You knew..." "So you've found out too, Hitomi." "All sorts of things happen in life, don't they?" "You can't do anything about what someone did before you met them." "Millerna..." "She still..." "Okay, there it is." "That's Rampant." "Set us down easy, Kio." "We're here as representatives of Asturia." "What's that?" "It's Zaibach!" "Send out the garrison and Melef units!" "I'm here!" "It's on fire!" "The harbor's on fire, Sarge!" "It's a Zaibach sneak attack!" "Gaddes, take us in!" "I'll go out in Scherazade." "Commander!" "That's that, then..." "Drop Scherazade!" "Take down as far as we can!" "Kio!" "Charge!" "Yessir!" "Allen!" "I'll go in first!" "I'll split their forces!" "Van!" "Nowthat I know, what should I believe?" "Who do I trust?" "It's like a sea of fire down there..." "Damn!" "Right flank!" "Cover our right flank!" "Stop!" "The Ispano Guymelef!" "." "What?" "What was that?" "Squad three!" "We need you up front!" "I'll protect Hitomi." "Who'd have thought that I'd run into you here?" "The red Guymelef..." "It's been a while..." "Let's play!" "BURN AWAY!" "Careful, now..." "You'll get burned." "Allen Schezar..." "I hate you!" "Van!" "Watch my back!" "Allen!" "That's the Ispano Guymelef everybody's been talking about!" "If we defeat it, we'll be heroes!" "Here they come!" "No, Van!" "I'll protect her." "I'll protect Hitomi." "I see you're as good as ever, Allen." "Damn!" "Lord Dilandau!" "Stay out of this,Jajuka!" "But Lord Dilandau..." "He's good..." "Why can I see this?" "I'll protect her!" "Stop!" "I..." "Stop..." "That's enough..." "Van!" "I'll protect her!" "Van!" "That's enough...!" "Nice, Van!" "This is great!" "Why is this guy so bloodthirsty?" "My heart's pounding!" "Damn!" "Van!" "Die!" "What?" "!" "I won't be killed by the likes of you!" "I'll protect her!" "Stop it!" "Lord Dilandau!" "What?" "jajuka!" "jajuka!" "Lord Dilandau!" "He disappeared!" "Lord Dilandau!" "They got us..." "They completely outmaneuvered us." "We must return to Palas." "Why?" "Why is everyone fighting?" "I hate this..." "I don't want to see it anymore..." "I see." "Rampant was completely destroyed." "We must hold the meeting with our allies here in Palas." "You're right." "Those Zaibach bastards will come at us with everything they've got." "We have to prepare immediately." "Yeah." "We could even launch a preemptive strike." "It's either us or them." "Why is fighting the only thing you can think about?" "What're you saying?" "We're fighting to protect you and everybody else." "I saw it!" "You enjoyed fighting!" "I don't want you to protect me if that's what it does to you!" "I'm sick of all this fighting..." "I'm sick of this world!" "Hitomi!" "Someone, send me back!" "Send me back to my world!" " Hitomi!" " Hitomi!" "Blue searchlights meet beyond the Moon..." "Yeah, my angel who came flying down, who are you?" "The doors of destiny are opening before us, so let's just fall in love." "I won't let go of this moment that's making my heart flutter..." "Don't stop baby!" "Your mystic eyes are setting' me on fire, your innocent smile breaking'me down..." "You're the only one with that look in your eye." "An endless journey is beginning with this unstoppable pounding in my heart, and I wanna swoop down and take you with me!" "Escaflowne..." ""Celena"?" "You love Hitomi, don't you?" "He's calling me..."
