01x09 - Scars of the Dead

[bunniefuu]

One hundred years have passed

since the Battle of Galluah Plains,

where King Kyle defeated

the Dark Lord Angmund.

The Demons rise again,

threatening the world

and spreading fear and unrest to all.

Demons

Demons My mom

On their way to Ogria Mountain,

Kasel and his companions stop by a shelter.

There, Frey meets a girl named Elise,

and tries to heal her wounded heart.

"Scars of the Dead"

So is this the town attacked by the Demons?

It's kind of creepy.

Something's not right.

Huh?

I can't exactly pin it down, but

There's something odd

That person

Is he a villager?

I'll go talk to him.

Um, excuse me

Roi, did you just

He's an undead.

Undead?

What is this?!

Look, there!

Run!

Don't come near me!

Wait!

So this candle must be the light that I saw.

Thanks, um, mister

My name is Johann. I'm glad you all are safe.

They react to loud noises and voices.

Please be mindful of that, even while indoors.

What are those people?

And Roi, why

Why are there undead here?

Undead?

How long has this been going on?

The nightmare began when

the Demons attacked our village.

Several villagers were k*lled,

but most of them were able to get away.

However, a few, including myself,

didn't make it out.

We were all afraid of the Demons

and had locked ourselves in our homes.

Before long, though, the Demons left,

taking the dead villagers with them.

But then, soon after, the villagers

who we thought were dead came back.

What does that mean?

I don't know. We did see them

get attacked by the Demons, but

At any rate, we were

glad to see them come back.

But those who returned

suddenly started attacking us

And now, I am the only survivor.

When the monsters attacked, I had boarded up

the windows and gathered food.

That's how I ended up surviving all by myself.

Viola

Mom Liked these

Elise

Elise?!

Do you know about my daughter?

Is she Is she alive?!

Daughter?

Yes, Elise is safe! She is in

a shelter in the nearby village.

I'm so glad

We were separated on the day of the attack

How was she doing?! Was she sad or crying?

Sh-She's fine

I'm sure she would be very excited

to know you're alive.

Yes, you should go see her right away.

I I can't go, not just yet.

Why not?

Being all alone out in a place like this

I know.

But still, I cannot leave this place.

But it's so dangerous!

Leave him alone.

He told you he can't leave. Just let him be.

By the way, what brings you out to this village?

We're on our way to Ogria Mountain.

Ah, I see. In that case,

you should stay here for tonight.

It's too dangerous to go out right now.

Tomorrow morning, I will take you to

the path to Ogria Mountain.

Stay here with those things around?

They don't care about night or day.

In that case, we're better off

moving around during the day.

Yeah, yeah.

That was weirdly tiring.

Yes.

I get what I felt odd about.

For a town that got attacked by Demons,

there weren't any corpses.

Yeah, because they all started moving.

I didn't expect to run into the undead here.

So what are these "undead" anyway?

He mentioned that the people

who were k*lled by the Demons came back.

Dead people coming back to life?

Is that possible?

The undead are moving corpses.

They never come back to life.

Moving corpses?

There are instances of dead people

rising up and attacking the living

mentioned in the records of the battle

of Galluah Plains, 100 years ago.

It's said that the Demons control the undead.

The Demons?

Dominix told me something similar,

so I'm pretty sure it's accurate.

But I don't know the details

Ugh, I should have studied the records

from 100 years ago more.

I couldn't because we had to

leave in such a hurry.

Sorry

It's not your fault, Kasel.

Dominix needs to stop

making decisions on a whim.

I suppose so.

Roi, how do you know so much

about the undead?

I also looked it up once,

at the Tower of the Sage.

So I guess those people who are outside

They all used to be normal humans.

Before you get any funny ideas,

no, there is no way to fix them. They're dead.

But we can't just let the undead

hang out here. That sounds dangerous.

After all, we were just attacked.

You want to go and k*ll every one of them?

We should concentrate on the Holy Sword.

I guess you're right.

That said, I wonder why

that man won't go visit Elise?

I heard great news today.

What do you think it is? It's truly marvelous.

Yes, it's true. Elise

Elise is alive!

I know, Lisa. You're happy, too.

But you have to get well first.

This is all I have left, but

Come on.

You have to eat.

Otherwise, how can you go see Elise?

You haven't eaten at all in days.

You won't ever get better until you do.

What's wrong?

In the basement

there's an undead.

What?

Wait.

You have to know how dangerous this is.

We were just attacked.

I know. But Mr. Johann seems

to have his reasons, too.

What do you mean?

He called her Lisa.

The undead might be his family.

So what?

Huh?

An undead is still an undead.

Let's go have a word with Johann.

Is something wrong, everyone?

You should rest early,

you have a big trip tomorrow.

Hey, what are you thinking?

What is this about?

I hear you have an undead in there.

I heard noises, I was concerned, so

Who is Lisa?

My wife.

Wait, so it's Elise's?!

I told you earlier about how the villagers

who got k*lled came back, yes?

Yes

Lisa was one of them.

So then,

I worked with my friend to capture Lisa!

Capture the undead?! What are you thinking?!

I can't possibly leave her alone.

The undead are just corpses.

No! Lisa's still moving!

The dead don't move, do they?!

Dammit.

Lisa is unwell.

She was hurt by a Demon,

so she's just not herself right now.

But something good happened, too.

Thanks to you, I know Elise is still alive.

I know Lisa will feel better soon!

You all have traveled all over.

Do you know how to cure Lisa's condition?

Honored priestess, you must know!

Lisa Lisa How do I cure her?

There is no cure. She's dead.

The dead never come back to life.

She is not dead!

Lisa is alive, she's alive, alive

Alive, alive, alive, alive

Do you have any intention of going to Elise?

I can't leave my wife behind.

I know you already understand,

that there's no more hope for Lisa.

You don't know anything about me!

Mr. Johann

Please leave us alone!

What about Elise?

What are you going to do about Elise?

Isn't she family, too, like Lisa?

Of course

Then

Lisa needs me!

Without me Without me Then who

Who can cure Lisa?

You want Elise to stay all alone

in an unfamiliar place?!

Of course you don't!

Kasel

But still I

I wasn't able to protect someone dear to me.

She was right there close to me

No matter how much I wish,

there's no way for me

But not you, Mr. Johann!

You can go to her right away!

You can still make it, Mr. Johann!

Please go to Elise.

I know what's right in my head.

I know the right thing to do is to go to Elise.

Can you

give me a moment alone?

Lisa

You have to remember, Lisa

Lisa.

This is the hair ornament

you wore at our wedding.

Remember how you always said,

that you're going to give it

to Elise when she gets married?

Back off, monster!

What did I just

This should hold her for a while, at least.

The undead have no will, no memories.

It looks like her,

but it's not the Lisa you know.

I just wanted to save Lisa

You can't.

The least you can do is to put her to rest.

How?

Hit it here, to finish it.

I can't do something so terrible!

Then I'll do it for you.

No! Don't touch Lisa!

This noise!

Let's go.

These were all villagers?

If the Demons did this,

I will never forgive them!

Stay sharp!

Why did this happen?

Lisa Lisa

Lisa!

If they keep coming separately like this

Cleo! Can't you blow them all up?!

They need to be bunched up more!

Sorry I'm late!

It's not the Lisa I know

He's right If you were Lisa,

you'd never forget Elise.

I love you.

I

will protect everyone!

The Guardian Knights decide to investigate

the Galluah Plains for Demons.
