Chapter 1: Serdian War

Dart: Hmm, "Chance of war more likely". (Puts bulletin away) I hope it's just a rumor.



Warrior 1: Who are you!?



Warrior 2: Are you a mercenary of Basil?



Warrior 1: Answer!!



Warrior 2: What are you doing!?



Warrior 1: (Holds spear to Dart's throat again)Are you drawing a sword against us!?



Warrior 2: Wh, What is!?



Dart: What is this! (Feyrbrand attacks Dart) Argh! I gotta do something or I'll be killed!



Dart: What a monster! It's coming! Urgh!



Dart: Who are you!?



Female Warrior: (Shhh.) (If you don't want to die.)



Feyrbrand roars and leaves



Dart: Thank you for saving me. What the heck was that!?



Female Warrior: It's a Dragon.



Dart: Dragon!?



Female Warrior: But it's strange. That village could've been easily destroyed without a Dragon.



Dart: The village...? Are you talking about Seles!? Then those soldiers were!?



Female Warrior: There won't be anything left by now.



Dart: Seles is my village!!



Female Warrior: (Oh my god....!? That man must be...? No. There is no way.)



Dart: Oh no!! My god!! Where is everybody!?



Villager: You didn't get enough killing!?



Soldier of Imperial Sandora: Hee hee hee!! It may be enough if I kill you. Dart: Stop!!



Soldier of Imperial Sandora: Oh, a mercenary? Isn't it a little late for you to show up?



Dart: Shut up!! What are you doing here!?

Soldier of Imperial Sandora: Can't you see? WE're gonna occupy this area, and these worms were in our way.

Dart: Occupy!? You were sent by the Imperial Army?

Solider of Imperial Sandora: Even if we were, it's none of your business. You're gonna die soon!!

After battle

Soldier: Ahh!! (Runs away)

Villager: Are...are you...really...Dart?

Dart: Yes! It's me! Why is Seles under attack!?

Villager: War...Imperial Sandora...attacked us....

Dart: What about the truce!?

Villager: Yeah. Suddenly...I didn't imagine...they could come to...such an outlying area.

Dart: If only I had come back sooner!

Villager: There is something, you have to do...Shana. Rescue Shana, only...you can......(Dies)

Dart: What about Shana!? Hey!! Wait!! Plos!! Hang on!!

Plos: Ah... That voice, is that you Dart?

Dart: This way. It's just a light wound.

Plos: I guess, I was lucky. But look at this village. If only you came back earlier....

Dart: (Shakes his head) ...

Plos: It's about Shana, too.

Dart: What's wrong with Shana?

Plos: She was taken away. Its seems Shana was their primary purpose.

Dart: Do you know where they went?

Plos: I...don't know.

Dart: I'm gonna make him talk!

Commander: Besting a private is no reason to be confident.

Dart: Where did you take Shana?

Commander: Shana....Don't worry about her. She must be receiving the courtesies of Hellena Prison by now.

Dart: Hellena!?

Commander: Surprised, huh? We specifically invited only that woman. Dart: You must be kidding!? You attacked the village only to kidnap Shana!?

Commander: Exactly, but don't worry, I will let you follow them. Although not to Hellena. To "Hell"!

Commander: That's awfully cheeky of you!

After battle

Plos: Dart, you are going to go rescue Shana, aren't you?

Dart: (Nods)

Plos: I won't stop you, but be careful. Your journey is not yet over, is it?

Dart: (Approaches Plos)...No.

Plos: You can count on us about Seles. There should be enough people who can still move.

Dart: (Nods) Thank you. When I settle everything, I'll be back. With Shana.



In Hellena Prison

Hellena Warden: Be good in there!



In another part of the Prison, Fruegel is talking with the Hooded Man

Fruegel: Who the heck is the girl!? You can tell me!!

Man in Hood: The world's future rests on her.

Silence

Fruegel: That's it!?

Man in Hood: This is enough information for you. Those of you who do not grasp the value should just do what the order says.

Fruegel: I am not taking your orders! Only His Majesty, Doel can order me!

Man in Hood: Anyway....You must remember his. If you make a scratch on her, it'll cost more than your head. This is a message from Emperor Doel.

Fruegel: Argh!!

Soldier: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!



Back in the Forest outside Seles

Dart: (Watches a wolf growling and running at him) I have no time to deal with you! It reminds me...

Flashback

Young Dart: Wait!

Young Shana: This way! This way!! Yeek!

Young Dart: Cut it out! Leave Shana alone!!

Flashback ends

Dart: "Leave Shana alone!" Hang in there, I'll get you out from there.



Outside Hellena...

Dart: Well, how can I sneak in?

Gatekeeper of Hellena: ...I see. Good meat and fish. Sir Fruegel will be happy.

Merchant: You bought a lot recently. Is there something going on?

Gatekeeper of Hellena: It's not the business of a merchant like you!

Merchant: Okay, okay. Sorry.

Gatekeeper of Hellena: I'll inspect the load!

Gatekeeper of Hellena: It seems to be okay. Whistles Lower the bridge!

Dart: (Now!)

Dart: (I made it.)

Dart approaches mercant

Merchant: This way!!

After fight

Merchant: He, Help me! I am just a delivery man.

Dart: Be quiet. I am not going to kill you.

Merchant: O, Okay. I won't make a noise.



Later

Voice: Move quicker!

Hellena Warden 1: (Hits captured knight)Move quicker!

Knight: Arg!

Hellena Warden 1: You have such bad luck! You will regret not being killed on the battlefield!

Knight of Basil: What do you mean!?

Hellena Warden 1: You really believe you can live comfortably in the jail? The head warden, Fruegel will feed you to the monster!

Knight of Basil: Feed us to the monster!? I won't let you humiliate us anymore!

Hellena Warden 1: Oh, feisty feisty. It's the worst kind of POW, but best kind of feed.

Knight of Basil: If you want to kill me, kill me now!!

Voice: I won't let him!

Knight of Basil: Sir Lavitz!!!

Hellena Warden 1: You, you bastard!! You broke out of the jail!? Silly guy!! You think you can escape from here alone!?

Lavitz: I'll take care of this!! Survive and go back to Indels Castle alive!! Tell King Albert...!

Hellena Warden 2: I won't let you!

Hellena Warden 3: I took care of those guys!

Dart: Is this civil war!?

Hellena Warden 3:You! Who are you!?

Hellena Warden 4: Are you a dog of Basil too!?

Lavitz: Who are you?

Dart: I am Dart! I am not your enemy!

Lavitz: I am Lavitz Slambert! I am the head of the First Knighthood of the Kingdom of Basil!

Lavitz: Well, it seems we don't have time for introductions!

Dart: No we don't!

*Fight*

Lavitz: I will carry our your wish. You said, Dart. I cannot imagine there is somebody who intentionally comes to Hellena. What are you up to?

Dart: I am here to rescue someone important to me. Do you know anything about her!? Her name is Shana!

Lavitz: I am sorry, but....

Dart: I'll look elsewhere. (Begins to leave)

Lavitz: Wait! I'll go with you.

Dart: I thought you had to go back to the castle as soon as possible?

Lavitz: She's important, this girl you are looking for?

Dart: It's my problem. It was my fault.

Lavitz: I don't know what brought you here but Hellena is not that easy to go through alone.

Dart: ....

Lavitz: That goes for me too. But, I can break out from here, together with you!

Lavitz: Of course with the girl.

Dart: How come you trust me? We've just met.

Lavitz: the raid you made was quite impressive. I trusted you to guard my back. That's the way I think.

Dart: All right. Let's go together.

*Later *

Lavitz: This room is extra tightly guarded.

Dart: (Nods, turns his head to see something shiny. He picks it up, turns to Lavitz) What about this key?

Lavitz: Take it with us. We'll need it if the girl called Shana is under confinement. But why only that girl?

Dart: I intend to ask that directly to the head warden. But that's after we rescue Shana.

Hellena Warden: You, you are from Basil!!

Dart: Lavitz! Get'em before they make a noise!



Lavitz: Yeah!

*Fight *

Voice from cell: Who is it!?
