Kandan(narrating): Having crushed the Brotherhood's army and captured the Great Bridge of Myrddin, I felt two things. One: I was impressing Lord Corbin, for now that one of his enemies that had moved here was nearing extinction, the dream of domination that all Va-Hataku want to come true was coming to that point. Two: I was impressing my dear Camilla. Besides, she had a lot more to admit to me before this whole thing even started.
(Flashback)
Camilla: Ugh... I'm so sick of it all. There is so much to be done, yet all I encounter are new problems and pitfalls. Ugh... Sometimes I wish I could spend just one day doing absolutely nothing and gorging myself on sweets!
Kandan: Let's do just that.
Camilla: Do you mean it? Just the thought makes me happy. But...Daniel would never allow it.
Kandan: That's too bad.
Camilla: Indeed. It may not be possible now, but one day we will know the joys of idling. Mark my words.
Kandan: Heh...
Camilla(indignant): Is that a smirk I spy? Is it so amusing to you, me daydreaming of free time?
Kandan: You misunderstand me.
Camilla: Huh! Your silly grin says otherwise. But let's put that aside for now. There is something I've been meaning to tell you. I'm afraid this might sound a bit...sentimental. However, in spite of this… I want to thank you. Because of you, I feel I can walk my fated path without losing myself. If I were alone, I might have lost perspective and become a harsh ruler with a heart of ice. But I'm not alone. With you by my side, I'm somehow free to be not only a leader but... simply plain Camilla.
Kandan: You have many allies.
Camilla: True. I am fortunate to be surrounded by many wonderful companions. Nevertheless, you are...different from the rest. Until now, no. one has been able to surpass me—much less command me. I have always been seen as an untouchable princess or emperor. No one spoke to me as an equal or met my gaze without flinching. It was lonely. Terribly lonely. The only person I could rely on as I tried to claw my way out of the darkness was myself. But you...you have been a brilliant light. Somehow, you have chased the darkness away. And for that... I will always be grateful.
Kandan(narrating): You know, things never looked this hot between us. But as of this moment, we knew it was high time to take down the Brotherhood, for good!
Lord Corbin: You have done well to remove Isla, Mena, and Iradan from our sights, and I have heard that Lordan has been slain as well. But do not underestimate Zuke Atero, for his power is more than what you've seen so far. But you have proven your loyalty to our cause with ease so far, and hopefully, it shall be done again.
Camilla: I wish we could settle all of this before the fighting begins. Don't you? I wish it dearly. But few others feel that way. They fight in a bloody battle, take countless lives, and then finally come to understand defeat. They refuse to admit when they're beaten, and they keep it up until they've been utterly defeated. Of course, I understand that sacrifice is inevitable... But if they're going to surrender after being defeated anyway, why raise a weapon in the first place?
Aegis: Do you ever regret taking the path you did?
Kandan: No.
Aegis: Hah, the very model of a leader! I should take a page out of your book. Whatever path you choose going forward, I'll follow you without question.
Kandan(narrating): Aside from them, everyone else was just in a business-as-usual mood. But it came time to crush the Brotherhood, and that fact I could not deny!
Camilla: It's almost time to depart. Are you ready?
Kandan: Leave it to me.
Camilla: A promising answer. Whatever happens, never allow your foe to see any weakness. The ancient force of the Brotherhood seems wrapped in mystery, but at least I know a thing or two about our own history. The Relics were created by the hands of mankind. Hadoria collected them after killing the 10 Elites. She manipulated the people of the world and defeated the all-powerful King Novox.
Kandan: I thought he was corrupted by his power?
Camilla: That's the history the Church of Hadoria maintains. However, it was little more than a simple dispute. Should the one leading the people of the world be someone with humanity or a creature that can merely masquerade as a human at will? In the end, Hadoria was victorious. The Immaculate One and her family then took control of all Me-. I know this because that knowledge is passed down from emperor to emperor. And that is the because the first emperor is the human who cooperated with Hadoria, allowing humanity to be controlled in secret.
Kandan: Hmmm.
Camilla: Perhaps it's fate that you can wield the Sword of the Creator, just like Novox, the King of Liberation. And that very fate will lead you to use that sword to stand against those who would distort history.
(Meanwhile)
Zuke: It seems they've set out from Elysium... That's sooner than expected. Losing the Great Bridge of Myrddin was a serious blow. So is the fact that 'that man' is still alive. On top of all that...Isla. I told her to run if things looked grim. Curses. So many people will die, and by my call.
Ugo: وماذا عنها؟ هل تفضل أن تدير ذيلك وتذهب إلى المنزل؟(And what about her? Would you rather turn your tail and go home?)
Zuke: الأخ أوغو ... أنت تثير أعصابي حقًا. هل لديك هل لديك أدنى فكرة عن مدى احترام الإخوان لي وإلى أي مدى يؤمنون بي؟(Brother Ugo... you really get on my nerves. Do you have any idea how much the Brotherhood respects me and how much they believe in me?)
Ugo: حسنًا ، أعتقد أنه كثير جدًا. هل هذا يعني أن ...(Well, I think it's quite a lot. Does this mean that...)
Zuke: نعم. الخطة جاهزة. أنا أعتمد عليك يا أخي أوغو. سنقوم بعرض جيد للقضاء على أولئك الذين يتعدون على ممتلكاتنا.(Yes. The plan is ready. I'm counting on you, Brother Ugo. We will make a good show to eradicate those who are trespassing on our property.)
Ugo: يقول الناس أن نوعنا قد لا يفوز دائمًا ، لكننا لا نخسر أبدًا. دعونا نعلمهم المعنى الحقيقي لهذه الكلمات.(People say our kind may not always win, but we never lose. Let's teach them the true meaning of these words.)
Zuke: نعم. أيها الإخوة والأخوات أسلافنا يراقبون من بعيد في الجنة. يجب أن نتأكد من أن هذا الإمبراطور وجيشها قد تم سحقهما بقوتنا ، وأنهما لن يغزووا أراضينا مرة أخرى ، لأنهم سيرمون في الجحيم!(Yes. Brothers and sisters, our ancestors are watching from afar in Heaven. We must make sure that this emperor and her army are crushed by our power, and that they will not invade our lands again, because they will be thrown into Hell!)
Loona: شقيق. أنا والأخت نوما على استعداد للقتال معك حتى نفد أنفاسنا.(Brother. Sister Numa and I are ready to fight with you until we run out of breath.)
Zuke: نحن أهل الرمال يا لونا. لن نسقط أبدًا في هذه الفظائع التي تفرخ في الجحيم!(We are the people of the sand, Loona. We will never fall into these atrocities spawning in Hell!)
(He soon sees Camilla, Kandan, Aiden, and the others)
Zuke: ها هي تأتي ، أخيرًا ... فعلت كل ما بوسعي للاستعداد. دع البطاقات تسقط حيث يمكنهم. سيكون اختبار حقيقي للقوة.(Here she comes, finally... I did everything I could to get ready. Let the cards fall where they can. It will be a real test of strength.)
Camilla: It seems Zuke has blockaded the city and occupied the naval port.
Daniel: Heh. If that is the case, he will have no choice but to engage us from there.
Camilla: Yes. Though putting myself in his place leaves me with an unpleasant feeling... If we take over the port and close the entry to the city, Derdriu will be under our control. Each soldier should bear that in mind as they advance.
Daniel: There are three gates which connect Derdriu to its naval port. Taking the city will be easy once we secure all three.
(Andre and the others take on some warriors)
Zuke: لقد بدأت ... الأخ أوغو! اضرب أجنحة الجيش الإمبراطوري! أولئك الذين يخشون أن يتم دفعهم إلى الجحيم يجب أن يندفعوا عندما ننتهي!(I started... Brother Ugo! Strike the wings of the imperial army! Those who fear being driven to hell must rush in when we're done!)
Ugo: بالطبع يا أخي. الموت لأعداء الإخوان!(Of course my brother. Death to the enemies of the Brotherhood!)
Randall: Yep. Corbin wasn't lying, these guys certainly have the spirit of fighting.
Andre: Yes... The more they fight, the more I want to halt their breathing!
Numa: لا تتوقع مني أن أجعل الأمر سهلاً بالنسبة لك. لأنني لن أفعل. ستقودون جميعًا إلى الجحيم عندما انتهيت!(Don't expect me to make it easy for you. Because I won't. You'll all be driven to hell when I'm done!)
Kandan: You have your sorcerers; you have your warriors. But you cannot defy the Empire for long.
Numa: لذا ، فإن الرجل الذي قرر الانتصار من أجل العدو اللعين لإخواننا قد أتى أخيرًا ليقضي علينا تمامًا. سآخذ جسدك وادفعه في الجحيم!(So, the man who decided to conquer for the sake of the damned enemy of our brothers has finally come to destroy us completely. I'll take your body and shove it in hell!)
Kandan: You will do no such thing. I can sense your insecurity, your fear. You are afraid of not being able to rise from your position yet know we can aid you in many ways than one. Even though we stand as enemies, I will offer you a place in the new world we are building. It is as the fates command.
(The mysterious power that claimed five lives now has Numa)
Zuke: لا أخت ، يجب ألا تستمع إلى هذه الأكاذيب! يجب محاربة هؤلاء الغزاة الذين ولدوا في الجحيم ، لا الانضمام!(No sister, you must not listen to these lies! These invaders who were born in Hell must be fought, not joined!)
Numa: أشعر بالخجل من قول هذا لأذنيك يا زوك ، لكنني لم أعد أستطيع سماع نداء أسلافنا ، ولا القتال من أجل قضيتنا. يجب أن أحقق إرادة أولئك الذين يصنعون مصيرنا ، ولا أحد آخر!(I am ashamed to say this to your ears, Zuke, but I can no longer hear the call of our ancestors, nor fight for our cause. I must fulfill the will of those who make our destiny, and no one else!)
Kandan: Mystik, please escort our new friend over to Elysium.
Loona: لا ، لقد سرقوا أختنا!(No, they stole our sister!)
Ugo: هذه الإهانة لأسلافنا لن تصمد!(This insult to our ancestors will not stand!)
Zuke: هل حقا. أيها الإمبراطور ، لقد أثبت قوتك ، لكن الآن لا يمكن إخماد غضبنا! سوف نقودك إلى الجحيم لأخذ أختنا منا!(Really. Emperor, you have proven your strength, but now our anger cannot be quelled! We will lead you to hell for taking our sister from us!)
Camilla: I'm starting to get tired of their language.
Daniel: That feeling is virtually mutual. Shall we end this?
Loona: أنت لم تنساني ، أليس كذلك؟ هذه إهانة لأسلافي ، إنها جريمة! ربما يجب عليك فقط السماح لي بالذهاب.(You didn't forget me, did you? This is an insult to my ancestors, it is a crime! Maybe you should just let me go.)
Andre: Yeah, not gonna happen kid.
Loona: أسلافي دعوني زوك. إنه لأمر مخز أن هؤلاء الغزاة لم يتمكنوا من إنقاذنا جميعًا.(My ancestors called me Zuke. It's a shame that these invaders couldn't save us all.)
Zuke: لا ، لم يكن هذا مقصودًا أن يحدث أبدًا.(No, this was never intended to happen.)
Ugo: لقد مرت 30 عامًا منذ أن وطأت قدمي ساحة المعركة. ها هو طعم قوتي التي لا تهزم! تشعر بقوة أوغو التي لا تقهر ، وسيم للغاية وغير مهزوم! (It's been 30 years since I set foot on the battlefield. Here is the taste of my unbeatable strength! Feel the power of the indomitable Ugo, so handsome and undefeated!)
Camilla: Handsome? I can tolerate. But undefeated and indomitable? Have you lost your marbles?
Ugo: يواصل الإمبراطور القتال على الخطوط الأمامية. أوه ، ولكن بالنسبة لسحري وجماليتي ، لا يمكنك أن تكون أكثر من نملة على طاولة النزهة!(The emperor continues to fight on the front lines. Oh, but to my magic and my aesthetic, you can't be more than an ant on the picnic table!)
(Ugo laughs, but Camilla is insulted)
Camilla: You will show the proper respect for the Emperor of Essena.
Ugo: أوه ، لكنك نملة مقارنة بوضعي الذي لا يقهر. أنت فقط لا ترى نفسك كواحد ، هذا كل شيء.(Oh, but you are an ant compared to my indomitable status. You just don't see yourself as one, that's all.)اخبرك بماذا. لقد سمحت لـ Ugo بالهروب من هذا المشهد ، وسنلتقي في ساحة معركة مختلفة تمامًا بمجرد أن تكتشف لماذا أنا وسيم جدًا ولا أقهر. لدينا صفقة لنا؟ (Tell you what. You let Ugo escape from this scene, and we'll meet on a completely different battlefield once you find out why I'm so handsome and indomitable. We have a deal for us?)
Camilla: Fine. But you just got lucky, my friend. Next time, you will pay for insulting me.
Andre: Well, well, well. It would seem the Brotherhood is on its last legs. One is about to be broken, while the fate of the other is in question. And as you would put it in your tongue... "سوف تقابل أسلافك." ("You will meet your ancestors.")
Zuke: فقط إذا سمحت لي بالنجاة من هذه المحنة ، هل أنا على حق؟(Only if you let me survive this ordeal, am I right?)
Andre: Well, stand still, and I promise death will be the only thing you never have to fear again.
Zuke: الوحوش الشريرة! هذه ليست الطريقة التي ينتهي بها الإرث! سأراك ميتا وفي الجحيم! هل تسمعني؟ سأراك في الجحيم! (Evil beasts! This is not how a legacy ends! I'll see you dead and into hell! Do you hear me? I'll see you in Hell!)
Andre: Ah... That's better.
Camilla: Yes. Everybody! Raise your voices in a victory cheer! Derdriu is ours!(Afterward)Lord Corbin, if I may. Derdriu is ours. But with Ugo still alive, the Ven-Kur Brotherhood is still active.
Lord Corbin: Yes. But Ugo's personality will not permit the other surviving warriors to follow him, nor will they listen to him.
Andre: Then we've got lambs to the slaughter. And once he's destroyed, Gor-Atrum's warriors will fall next!
