Everyone, please give me your lives!
I'm going with you!
I'm... alive?
It's highly likely that your cells will disintegrate soon,
and then you will die.
Luke, I'm sorry.
I had no choice but to send you to die.
That's all right.
It was my decision.
As your father,
I am proud of you.
Father...
I honestly wish we could let Luke rest,
but if we are to defeat the New Order of Lorelei, we must stop the Planet Storm and infiltrate Eldrant.
Your Majesty!
The New Order of Lorelei sends a messenger.
Largo!
I came to hear your answer to Fon Master Mohs.
As punishment for neglecting the Score, we demand reparations from Kimlasca and Malkuth, as well as their capitulation.
King Ingobert.
I presume you understand what it would mean if you refused.
Our Kingdom of Kimlasca-Lanvaldear has unanimously decided to abolish the Score.
And thus, I must refuse.
So shall we take this as a declaration of war against the New Order of Lorelei?
We do not wish to fight. However...
Know that if you threaten my country and its citizens, we shall retaliate.
I will inform Fon Master Mohs of your decision.
Wait.
So you had it?
Then it really was yours...
Is this really what you want?
We are fighting for a future where everyone can live.
We won't let the world be destroyed.
What we are doing is no different.
How?
Do you not serve Mohs, who still blindly clings to the Score?
I have pledged my allegiance to only one master.
Do not forget that.
My brother.
I see that this conflict cannot be avoided.
Natalia, would you and Luke please see me in my room?
Why, what is it?
It is time you knew the truth.
What is the matter?
It is about your true parents.
I know that my true mother was Nanny's daughter.
Yes, she was.
But you know nothing about your father, do you?
I–I do not...
Apparently, your father used to be a mercenary named Badaq.
A mercenary?
But why are you telling me this now?
We have discovered his whereabouts.
Is this true?
Is my father really alive?
Yes.
Natalia, please remain strong and listen.
Badaq is currently serving the New Order of Lorelei.
That's...!
Why?
Are you certain?
Unfortunately, I am.
He now calls himself...
"Largo the Black Lion."
T–That can't be...
There must be some mistake.
Isn't there?
It's the truth.
No...
Natalia...
Natalia, you don't have to stand at the front line any longer.
There is no need for you to fight against your own blood.
I see.
Will she be all right?
She's resting in her bedroom right now.
It must be a big shock for her.
I'm worried.
As I thought.
A fonic arte is carved into this jewel.
With it, we can stop the Planet Storm.
Really?
Yes.
You have to fill it with Seventh Fonons at the Radiation Gate.
Doing so will activate the fonic arte and break the glyph.
And the Gate will close, right?
Yes.
However, you will have to simultaneously take action at the Absorption Gate.
What do you mean?
The Radiation Gate emits memory particles, and the Absorption Gate absorbs them in turn.
If you want to close the Radiation Gate, you have to do the same with the Absorption Gate.
But... how?
With Yulia's power.
The Fonic Hymns should have enough power.
That would be where Tear comes in.
Let's split into two teams.
Yes.
How should we split up?
I suppose that Natalia won't come with us.
No, I will go as well.
Natalia!
Natalia, you don't have to force yourself.
I am not.
But... Largo might be there, you know.
If we have to fight...
Will it not be hard for you to fight him, out of consideration for me?
It is precisely because we share the same blood that we must overcome this.
Are you all right?
Thank you. I am fine.
May I ask you something?
What?
How did you feel... when you learned that Van, your brother, was planning something terrible?
Well... It was as if I was listening to a story.
I couldn't comprehend what my brother was saying.
I think I understand.
Then, I decided to stop him.
Even if I had to die along with him...
How did you find the resolve to go so far?
My brother was the only family I had left in the world.
I thought that since we shared the same blood, it was my duty to stop him.
We are going to the Absorption Gate.
Luke, I'm counting on you.
Yes.
We have to stop the flow of these memory particles.
Will Luke and the others be all right?
Master Ion!
It's you.
So there were still other replicas of Fon Master Ion.
I won't forgive you! Are you trying to use him too?
You came at a good time. Something interesting is about to happen.
His neural contamination is worsening.
Now, come, Van!
Brother!
I can finally maintain a physical form again.
Hurry! Give me the Seventh Fonstone.
Now... Now I can finally learn the Score written on the Seventh Fonstone.
I don't have time to waste with you people!
Wait!
Brother! How?!
That day, I was absorbed into the Planet Storm.
And the fonons that compose my body started to separate.
You're here too?
Just as I thought I was going to vanish, I remembered Yulia's Fonic Hymns and sang.
Those were the words of Yulia's covenant with Lorelei.
Lorelei responded, answering to that pact,
and prevented Sync and me from decomposing.
However, it is unexpectedly hard to control.
Move out of the way!
What?
Brother!
Mystearica, the next time we meet, I will show no mercy.
Wait!
I wish all of this was just over and done with.
We have come here to put an end to it.
"Thus shall Auldrant be destroyed by the miasma and turned to dust."
"This is the end of Auldrant."
Nonsense!
Stop!
You're in the way!
The Score... To protect the Score...!
Master Mohs...
He's at the limit.
We have no choice but to fight.
Fon Master Mohs! No, Grand Maestro Mohs!
Tear!
Please, return to your senses!
It's over there.
Yeah. Let's close the Gate quickly.
What a surprise to see you here, Princess Natalia.
Largo!
You...
You...!
Largo!
Why are you helping Van?!
What good will it do you to know?
Answer me, Badaq!
So you know...
That day, I came home after safely escorting my charge.
When I got there, neither Sylvia nor our newborn child were to be found.
In desperation, I searched the entire city.
Sylvia was found a few days later.
Well, her body was.
Sylvia was hysterical when her baby was taken from her, and so she killed herself.
That's...
I left Baticul.
In my wanderings, I met Commandant Van.
He told me this:
All life moves according to the Score.
The Score is the planet's memory.
Each and every memory, until the end of the world.
The Score only tells of a little part of it.
Does that mean that Sylvia's death was predetermined from the beginning?
I hated the Score, the planet's memory.
But... isn't the Score only one of many possible futures?
But if you always end at the same place no matter what path you take, then free will means nothing.
The conclusion is always the same...?
Yes.
Even if you abolish the Score, this planet will move on its own toward the future it remembers.
What?!
That's why I decided to follow Van who seeks to destroy the planet's memory.
Destroy the planet's memory?
We are going to destroy Lorelei, the planet's memory itself.
That way, everyone will be able to build their own future.
So that's why you're trying to slaughter all the originals?
As long as the originals remain, so will a part of the planet's memory.
That's...!
Still, it's wrong to abandon all the people who are alive now!
This coming from the man who killed so many replicas.
That's right. I chose to preserve the original world by taking the lives of those replicas!
Well said!
You are a worthy opponent.
I won't let you do as you please any longer!
Wait! You are my...
Princess Natalia, my beloved daughter is long gone.
She was taken from me eighteen years ago.
En garde!
Grand Maestro Mohs, is this really what you want?
Tear, he can't hear us anymore.
Howl, o raging wind, and cleave mine enemies with your blade!
Turbulence!
Here I go!
Just what can you do?
Izayoi Tenbu!
All right!
Absolute!
Sufferrrr!
I'm sorry... Grand Maestro Mohs!
kuloa riou kuloa neu tue lei kuloa riou zwe lei va
Grand Cross!
You did it!
T–The Score... O Yulia, prosperity to this world...!
Score! Score! Score...!
Please forgive me.
He clung to the Score to the very end...
Grand Maestro Mohs believed that as long as we had Yulia's Score, the world would be saved.
He was trying to save the world in his own way.
He doesn't seem to understand what's going on.
Come with us.
Natalia, stand back!
Don't force yourself.
Luke!
Largo, we're trying to free the world from the Score too!
Why do we have to kill each other?!
This is a battle of our ideals!
We believe that this world must be remade.
You believe that it can just start anew.
Even if we seek the same end,
our means are different!
Reppa Senpuujin!
That's enough, Largo!
Luke!
Die.
Natalia...
Good shot.
Listen, boy.
Show no pity for your opponents.
With such weak resolve... you will never... defeat him.
You've grown up to look just like Sylvia.
Farewell, Meryl.
Father...
They're late.
Nothing is happening.
Ah, the memory particles!
It has started.
tue lei zwe kuloa riou tue zwe

They've stopped!
You did it, Luke!
You succeeded!
Yes!
That's great!
We can get to Eldrant now.
Natalia...
I am all right.
We have to put an end to this.
You don't have to force yourself.
No, I am going.
I have my ideals as well.
