"So is everybody this lonely when they're in love?" "They'll hold onto a pain 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..." "Was it all just a dream?" "Or a vision?" "Fanelia burned, and in that choking heat, that boy and I were again wrapped in light and sent into the heavens." "This is Gaea, a strange world where the Earth and Moon hang in the sky." "Judging from the stars, this is definitely Gaea, so was that girl sent someplace else?" "What am I gonna do...?" "I can't believe I'm stuck out here alone..." "Please, tell me which way I should go." "Hitomi?" "!" "Mom!" "No!" "Cut it out!" "Knock it off, you dumb bird!" "Stupid little..." "You again." "So, you've grown tired of petty thievery, and now you're attacking helpless women?" "You'll pay for that." "A-Allen...!" "Take your punishment!" "You aren't hurt, are you, miss?" "What are you doing in a place like this?" "I'm sure there's a story behind it." "What's wrong?" "C'mon, Kanzaki." "Amano!" "Amano!" "I was so scared, Amano...!" "Amano..." "Hitomi!" "What did you do to that girl?" "!" "Making rash threats is never a good idea." "Don't draw!" "Ifyou draw that sword, you'll die." "What?" "!" "My duty as a knight is to answer steel with steel." "I don't draw to play games." "That was foolish." "Your swordsmanship is excellent." "But" "you don't charge aggressively enough." "It would be a shame to kill you." "I struckwith the back of my sword." "What are these two doing here?" "So I'm to understand that you let those bumpkin samurai damage two of my Alseides units?" "Two!" "F-Forgive us!" "Step forward!" "You had stealth cloaks!" "How could you let that happen?" "!" "Areyou trying to ruin my reputation?" "F-Forgive us!" "I'll only say this once." "I don't need a couple of incompetents in my Dragon slayers." "Do you follow me?" "Yes, sir!" "Dilandau, there was no need to raze Fanelia to the ground." "I'd like the stealth cloaks to be used more effectively." "I never thought I'd hear that coming from you." "Not from the man who sold out Fanelia, Folken." "An amateur like you has no business telling me how to fight a battle." "Amateur, indeed." "That's harsh." "What's this room for, anyway?" "Right, this is your first time here, isn't it?" "Emperor Dornkirk!" "Folken, it still remains." "The dragon still casts it's shadow over the Zaibach Empire's future." "The dragon has fled Fanelia." "Capture it at all costs!" "As your Majesty wishes." "And one other matter.." "That pillar of light which my Destiny Prognostication Engine failed to predict." "I sense the stirrings of a new power." "Capture it so that we may remove this unknown element." "The dragon canbe found on the frontier of Asturia." "Capture the dragon!" "Capture it so that we may re awaken the legendary power of Atlantis!" "Captain Amano?" "You're awake, huh?" "I..." "You must be a little anemic." "You collapsed when you were running." "I..." "I think I was dreaming." "What kind was it?" "It was a scary dream..." "No, a sad one." "I dreamt I'd never see you again, Amano." "Don't worry about that." "I'll always be with you." "Amano..." "You're awake, huh?" "Where" "Hey, the princess is awake." "Mornin', cutey." "That's enough." "You're scaring her." "Nobody wants to wake up to faces like yours." "Don't say that, Boss!" "Yeah, don't compare us to Pyle here, okay?" "Up yours!" "I didn't go back..." "That wasn't Earth..." "Amano..." "Yukari..." "Mom..." "What's the matter?" "Ifyou like, you can tell me." "I'm Allen Schezar, a knight of Asturia." "You're a guest of this castle." "As her commander, I'll protect you." "That is my duty as a knight -- no, as a man." "Allen..." "Geez, how can he spout that crap with a straight face?" "The Boss has a gift for it." "Commander!" "The boy's awake." "Bring him." "Get in there." "Van!" "The Mystic Moon?" "You're telling me that you come from the Mystic Moon?" "You're saying that this girl's one of the moon's inhabitants?" "That's right." "Just like we explained a dozen times." "I see." "If the King of Fanelia says so, I suppose I must believe it." "What's your name, miss?" "Hitomi." "Hitomi Kanzaki." ""Hitomi"..." "It has a pleasant ring to it." "Allen, I apologize for entering your country without permission." "So give me back Escaflowne!" "Give me back my Guymelef!" "." "And what will you do with the Guymelef?" "Return to Fanelia." "I was sent here in the middle of a fight against an unknown enemy." " It won't do them any good." " What?" "!" "Fanelia's been destroyed." "Everything was burned to the ground." "Y-You're lying!" "Some of my country's merchants saw it happen." "I'm sorry." "What in the world happened?" "Ifyou talk to me, we may be able to help." "Van..." "Fanelia..." "It's gone..." "What's that?" "!" "A Zaibach Empire floating fortress!" "Guymelefs!" "Zaibach Guymelefs are coming down here!" "Those..." "Those are the giants that attacked Fanelia!" "I'd like to request weapons, food, and water." "We're engaged in urgent military maneuvers." "I'll do everything in my power." "C'mon, just for a bit." "Please?" "Aw, for cryin' out loud..." "Look, don't tell the Commander about this." "Hey!" "Kid!" "By the way, Sir Allen..." "You haven't seen a strange Guymelef in the area, have you?" "No, not that I know of." "It wouldn't have anything to do with maneuvers that require even a floating fortress, would it?" "Possibly." "Would it have anything to do with Fanelia to the west being attacked?" "That run-down little country?" "Maybe its leaders were eaten by the dragons that wander that valley." "It's a fitting end for such a back water country, don't you think?" "At any rate, it was a country of cowards, led by a king who's gone into hiding." "Who cares what happened to them..." "Not showing yourself during a battle is what's cowardly, wouldn't you say?" "I've never seen clothes like yours before." "Where are you from, girl?" "She's my new lover." "I found her in the East." "Her name's Hitomi." "As I said, Lord Dilandau." "You live up toyour reputation, Allen Schezar." "I hope you put the same effort into our provisions." "That sure made their eyes bug out!" "Ifyou haven't seen the Boss do that before, that'll happen..." "Hell, we're used to that, and it still happens to us, sometimes." "At any rate, we seem to have made it through that in one piece." "I think I may have given you a bad reputation in the Zaibach Empire." "Gaddes!" "Come to my room after they're taken care of." "Yes sir!" "Is..." "Is he the one?" "They'll give themselves away soon enough." "There's no rush." " Yes, sir!" " The scouts are in position, sir." "Good." "I want everyone on standby to go into battle." "Yes, sir!" "Allen Schezar, your luck ran out when you made an enemy ofme." "Allen..." "Van..." "Hey, I forgot I had these with me...!" "Don't sulk, Van." "Cheer up!" "See?" "The Hermit." "The cards sayyou should be patient." "What're those?" "Tarot cards." "They tell you your fortune." "A bunch of cards can't tell you your fortune." "I was just trying to take your mind off things..." "You're one morose guy, you know that?" "Death?" "Hitomi!" "V-Van..." "Hey, what happened?" "!" "What was that?" "Stay back." "Oops." "Did I get the wrong room?" "It's that pervert from yesterday!" "Pervert?" "What?" "They've disappeared?" "Yes, sir." "We have no idea where they went." "I do." "Hey!" "Prep Scherazade!" "I'm just a poor thief, y' see..." "I screwed up and got caught here in the castle a while back." "But that's okay." "I am a mole, after all." "So I dug a hole like this last night, and I went for a walk." "But while I was out, the lady's pretty stone caught my eye, and..." "So that's why you attacked me." "I thought I'd bring you that bag as an apology." "This got sent flying from Fanelia with us, I guess." "This is the Guymelef store house." "What a magnificent Guymelef...!" "That's an Yspano design, isn't it?" "What're you planning to do?" "Leave here, and then return to Fanelia." "Stop, Van!" "Didn'tyou hear what Allen said?" "!" "Van!" "Don't!" "I thought I told you not to leave the castle, Van." "Allen!" "But if you insist, you'll have to go through me." "I find that highly unlikely, however." "You're on!" "How many hits doyou think the kid can take?" "It'll all be over after one shot." "Stop it, Van!" "Why are you fighting Allen?" "Careful, now." "Gaddes?" "There's nothing to worry about." "But..." "C'mon, already!" "Okay, okay!" "Are you ready, Van Fanel?" "Face me!" "I accept." "A hundred says the Boss takes him down on the first swing!" "Two hundred on the Boss!" "Hey, somebody oughta bet on the kid!" "No way, I ain't that stupid!" "You bet on him!" "Who's your money on, miss?" "You're kidding, right?" "You don't charge aggressively enough, Van!" "Hey, he blocked it!" "He just got lucky." "Balgus never held back like this!" "You've heard of Balgus?" "!" "Of course!" "He's one of the three master swordsmen of Gaea!" "Balgus was my swordmaster!" "What?" "He blocked another one!" "That won't helpyou!" "Damn!" "That's enough." "Come out of your Guymelef peacefully." "Balgus..." "I lost." "What?" "When did he...?" "Van..." "Hitomi?" "Allen!" "Run!" "The invisible enemy!" "They're" "Blue search lights meet beyond the Moon..." "Yeah, my angel who came flying down, who are you?" "The doors of destiny are opening before us, solet's just fallin love." "I can't break free of this moment that's making my heart flutter..." "Don't stop, baby!" "Your mystic eyes are settin' me on fire, your innocent smile breaking'me down..." "You're the only one with that look in your eyes." "An endless journey is beginning with this unstoppable pounding in my heart, and I wanna swoop down and takeyou with me!" "Escaflowne..." "Allen!" "Above you!" "This castle has fallen." "We're withdrawing." "Burn!" "Burn!"
