"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." "It's humiliating..." "We just couldn't hold in the face of Zaibach's military might..." "Still, we must hold this position." "We have to hold the line until the alliance's main force arrives." "We soldiers of Cesario will gladly lay down our lives." "However, our remaining soldiers are few." "If we had the aid of the King of Fanelia, pilot of the Ispano Guymelef, it would surely bolster the troops' morale." "Please, see fit to aid us!" "We'll fight together." "I, Van Fanel, will lead the frontline." "We thank you!" "I have one favor to ask:" "I want you to take her to Asturia." "Very well." "A ship will be made ready at once." "I want to stay!" "I might be able to help, Van." "I know." "If you stayed, I'd rely on you." "I don't want to use your power for war." "Van..." "I don't understand!" "If we have this many troops, why haven't we received permission to advance?" "With our 40,000 troops, it would be child's play to defeat that alliance rabble!" "What is Emperor Dornkirk thinking?" "I can see it..." "I can see it!" "Fate will lead the girl into my hands." "The Zone of Absolute Fortune will soon be set in motion...!" "Rain..." "There's something sad about rain." "It washes everything away." "Allen, I..." "Van's love for you brought you back to Gaea." "And you returned it." "This may be the first time a woman's ever refused my advances." "Allen..." "Don't worry." "Van will return." "Because the most important person in the world to him is here." "You." "Pathetic." "War's useless." "Nothing good ever comes out of it." "It just kills and destroys." "Dryden..." "A merchant like me, who only sees price tags on goods, can't do a thing to stop a war that destroys them." "What a joke." "What's wrong?" "You're not yourself." "No." "I suppose I'm not." "You are beautiful..." "Even a goddess would be jealous." "Dryden..." "I'm not the kind of man you deserve yet." "What are you saying?" "This war will be over soon." "Whichever side wins, the people sacrificed to it will still be there." "I want to start over again with them." "Maybe there'll even be something a guy like me will be good for." "I'll live as a merchant, right alongside them." "That's the best shortcut to become the man you deserve." "I don't know if I'll be waiting." "I'll make you fall for me." "Because I love you." "You want to help Van?" "Folken, tell me how to create a pillar of light and go to Zaibach!" "I'll go see Dornkirk and ask him to stop all this fighting." "He won't listen." "Besides, if you're put in danger, it would hurt Van." "I should be the one to go to Dornkirk." "A wave in tune with the Fate Alteration Engine should be able to direct the pillar of light." "That is why I recovered this device from the Vione." "I will settle this myself." "Folken..." "What?" "No..." "If he goes to see Dornkirk, he'll die!" "Yes, I suppose he was being gentle in his own way." "I thought he would make me happy." "Yes, that's how it's always been." "I wanted someone to make me happy." "But that was wrong." "And I didn't realize it until Dryden left." "Allen, you knew, didn't you?" "Princess Millerna, I" "Don't say anything!" "If I hear kind words from you, I'll start to rely on you." "I don't want to be a burden to you." "I'll be fine." "Allen Schezar, Knight Caeli, will now leave for battle." "This is goodbye for now, Princess Millerna." "May the sea dragon god Jichia always watch over you, and may fortune smile upon you in the battle to come." "Lord Dilandau." "We've been ordered to go with the 32nd Division to Galfo." "Really." "It's been a while since we had a great battle..." "It'll be fun." "What?" "Use our ultimate weapon?" "At this rate, we won't make it to the enemy's headquarters." "We'll blast our way through!" "But our allies are on the battlefield!" "I don't care!" "Zaibach, we're going to teach you a lesson, you bastards!" "General!" "Taste the power of Basram's new weapon!" "Van..." "Merle?" "What's wrong, Merle?" "Can I stay here?" "I'm scared!" "I feel like Lord Van's never coming back!" "I'm really scared!" "Believe in him." "Van's gonna come back." "Right, Merle?" "We're over the target's airspace." "Let's do it!" "Right." "We'll climb and bank while it's falling!" "Now dropping." "They actually used it?" "!" "Something's flashing above us!" "What?" "What?" "What's happening?" "!" "Sarge!" "It's gone off!" "." "Kio, get us behind the mountains!" "Yessir!" "This ain't no war!" "Damn them!" "A new weapon?" "!" "Helio Fleet, Zodia Fleet, and Gedin Fleet have all been destroyed!" "We're being thrown!" "Damn you, you alliance bastards!" "This is an act of the devil!" "I'll make you pay for this!" "What happened?" "There's..." "There's nothing left...!" "Demons!" "Are you trying to wipe outZaibach?" "!" "Curse you!" "Curse you all!" "No, I..." "Van's..." "Van's suffering." "I have to end the fighting!" "Van's suffering!" "Hitomi!" "Folken!" "Van's suffering." "I..." "I want to help him." "I knew you'd come." "But..." "But I saw..." "Folken..." "You might die in Zaibach, Folken!" "I saw something horrible." "You needn't worry about that." "I don't have long to live." "A reaction of fortune is shortening my life." "These black wings are proof of that." "Black wings..." "I will atone with my life for my sin of associating with Dornkirk." "This is my fate." "You can't!" "If you die, Van'll be all alone!" "I don't want to see Van sad!" "Van will succeed." "He will leave my body behind for the sake of the new world." "That's not right!" "I'll do everything I can to change that sad fate!" "Where's the red Guymelef?" "They've come." "Where are we?" "Everything is now in place." "All of the pieces have come to me." "The time has come to use the full power of the Fate Alteration Engine." "All is proceeding according to my will." "Your will?" "Yes." "I guided fate so you would bring the girl from the Mystic Moon to me." "just how far do you plan to toy with fate?" "!" "A foolish question." "You should know my true intentions." "Then you should know what I'm determined to do." "You've come to kill me, correct?" "Come, kill me." "I am the only one here." "Folken!" "Come, Folken!" "Monster!" "Folken!" "No!" "I see." "This is the heart of the fate alteration, ...where action and reaction are at their most powerful." "But the war will end now." "May Gaea find true peace..." "Van..." "Folken!" "Brother..." "Brother!" "Van." "Brother..." "Brother!" "Van's crying..." "Van..." "Why?" "Why do sad things like this always happen?" "No more..." "I don't want to see any more..." "I'm sick of this kind of fate!" "It has begun." "Who are you?" "Watch with me, young lady." "Watch the Zone of Absolute Fortune." "You're" "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..." "I'm fighting to protect you!" "I'll never forget you!"
