Such a pretty village...
But... there still isn't enough water...
...and the fields are too small.
In its present state, it's only enough to supply the people already here.
I want to bring everyone's families to live here from all over Neo Verona.
We'll have to expand the fields for that to happen.
Romeo, you've stirred up a wind within yourself, haven't you?
Romeo used his own strength to create a new hope and future for everyone.
Not as the son of the Montagues...
...but as Romeo.
They're so strong now...
Your hands.
Your lips haven't changed.
I must leave.
In life and in death...
...we will be together eternally.
All our joys and all our sorrows will be shared.
Because those feelings will never waver, even when we're apart.
Romeo...
I'll work hard as well...
...believing that the day will come when we can live together.
Yes.
Let's go, Curio.
Right.
Curio!
I promised myself that, if I ever met you, I would punch you.
It's best that I don't.
If I hit you, I'm afraid Juliet would beat me.
Juliet.
I believe in you.
Romeo, you can create that village.
A village where everyone can live with hope in their hearts!
Everyone with hope in their hearts...
Until that day, I'll have to work hard as well.
Thank you, Curio.
I'm truly happy that I was able to see Romeo.
Let's make haste.
Yes.
I want to stir up a wind too!
To stir up everyone's hopes!
Wonderful! Wonderful!
A sell-out crowd! I can't believe it!
Now my fame as a playwright will go through the roof!
What should I do if they beg me for autographs?
I'll have to rehearse!
Finally, a larger performance...
Why aren't I the lead?
I'm getting nervous...
Come on, hold yourself together!
But it's a full house!
No "buts"!
But...
Honestly, act like a man!
Well then.
That's-
Ready, my dears?
Curtain time.
Kill them all.
That loathsome clan...
Not one pound of their flesh...
...nor one drop of their blood...
...will I allow to remain in this world!
Messenger of heaven, bright angel of the north.
O, speak again...
...so that I may hear the sweet echo of thy voice.
A tragic princess, whose clan has been murdered...
...falls in love with the son of the King on whom she must take vengeance.
However, in the name of the vengeful destiny she took upon herself...
...she raises a rebellion.
Yet it fails...
...and she is captured by the enemy.
And yet...
...her companions come to her rescue, and with the aid of her beloved...
...she once again resolves to continue.
This is Juliet's story.
The people will be drawn to this story...
...and will wish for the princess to be saved.
It will spread throughout the land...
...and if the voice of the people rises...
...both townsmen and former nobles will come together...
...and offer aid to the Capulets.
Alack, there lies more peril in thine eye than ten, than twenty of their swords!
Look thou but sweet on me, and I would never die!
Then deny thy father, and refuse thy name!
Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love...
Begone, foul spirit!
Father!
As long as thou dost live...
...thou wilt become a sword, and pierce me!
Balthasar and Regan both have realistic expressions!
Now, time for the white tree of hope to make its entrance, Juliet!
Juliet, are you listening?
She's not here.
What?
What is it?
So that's how she's playing it!
Is that really the Red Whirlwind?
I heard he died!
Is that a ghost?
I am no ghost!
Nice, nice. Very good.
Even beneath a sky controlled by fate...
...there is enough room for people to exercise their own strength!
This sword I've taken up...
...is not meant for killing.
This sword is hope!
With hope in my hand...
...I will create a new Neo Verona!
Hope...?
A new Neo Verona...?
A wind of hope for Neo Verona!
Those who seek it, follow me!
I will follow, Red Whirlwind!
I see...
She will overthrow Montague not as Capulet's daughter...
...but as the Red Whirlwind.
This is no longer a matter of vengeance.
It's a revolution!
This will be a great drama.
The Red Whirlwind was the only living daughter of the Capulet House all along.
The truth should drive the people wild with excitement.
Neo Verona will change!
And Juliet took the first step.
That was incredible...
Was that the real Red Whirlwind?
It was, as sure as I'm alive.
I saw him once in Neo Verona!
It doesn't matter whether he's real or fake...
...if the Red Whirlwind can overthrow Montague for us!
I want to overthrow Montague and stir up a new wind within Neo Verona.
Lady Juliet...
But not as Juliet of the Capulet House.
As the Red Whirlwind.
What...?
Please understand, Conrad.
I want to create a new Neo Verona, one that is different from the way it has always been.
I request your service to bring that to fruition.
As you wish.
Lady Juliet.
You have reached this conclusion after much pain, suffering and long hours of contemplation, didn't you?
All that remains is for us to fight to the utmost of our ability.
Destroying Montague is our dearest wish; one we've cherished for fourteen years.
Thank you, everyone.
I think the Doctor would be glad.
We are returning to Neo Verona!
What is it?
The performance today was more interesting than the play you wrote.
Truth surpasses fiction.
And yet, people need stories.
In order to live through reality, you understand?
And so I will keep writing.
Can't sleep?
Curio.
Is it all right?
Montague is Romeo's...
I have no hesitations now.
I see.
If that's what you've decided...
...we have merely to follow you...
...Red Whirlwind.
Your right eye...
You were the reason I became the Red Whirlwind...
...weren't you, Curio?
The first day I walked through the peasants' quarter...
I couldn't stomach seeing the people suffering in front of me...
No...
If I had protected you properly...
...it wouldn't have come to that.
It was the result of my own lack of strength.
It was bitter for me to remember it...
After that, I started wearing a mask...
...and the Red Whirlwind was born.
Because I didn't want anyone to live through that pain again.
The fighting will soon be over...
...and so will this hatred.
For that aim...
...I will become the Red Whirlwind once more.
They say the Red Whirlwind's alive!
No... that's ridiculous!
He can't have survived!
Word has it that he's leading a force of Capulet Guards and heading for Neo Verona.
Is that reliable?
They say he might even arrive today or tomorrow.
That's no joke!
I have to let everyone know...
Neo Verona might change.
A man who calls himself the Red Whirlwind and a few remnants of the Capulet Guard...
I will take a troop of pegasi to destroy them.
Is the Capulet girl among them?
No.
They say she has not been sighted.
Capture all of those former guards without killing them.
I will make them confess where she is hiding.
But the Red Whirlwind should have burnt to death.
Who could it possibly be...?
Stop them!
Arrest the men!
Yes sir!
It is no longer... merely the Capulets' revenge.
This is a revolution in the making!
I wonder if Juliet is well.
Then, according to the plan, this is the place.
We'll leave it to you.
We have received reports that the numbers of the Capulet Guard have more than doubled!
No matter.
Compared to the pegasi cavalry we have stationed in this fortress, that is no great number.
Once they have approached the city, they will be trapped between our forces!
What is this?
Who could it possibly-
Checkmate.
H-How?
Only the Grand Duke and Tubal know of the existence of this fortress!
Our friends are numerous...
We stay well informed.
Throw down your weapons and go home!
The Red Whirlwind is coming.
You should not be here.
Don't try and stop us!
I won't!
Stop it!
Isn't it about time those Capulet Guards arrived?
Have you made contact with the pegasi cavalry from the fortress yet?
No, sir, not yet.
The Capulet forces are here!
Prepare to fire!
Has the Red Whirlwind come?
Is he finally here?
Here we go too!
What is this?
The townspeople are rioting!
At a time like this?!
How annoying...
Lord Tubal, your orders!
Fire!
How pretty!
Look!
Juliet!
It's the Red Whirlwind!
Red Whirlwind!
People of Neo Verona!
To take this city out of Montague's hands...
...I have arisen from the flames and returned to you!
Those of the same heart...
...let us fight together!
Soldiers of Montague!
Set aside your weapons and go, now!
Throw away your swords and we will not pursue you.
The Grand Duke does not govern Neo Verona!
The people do!
Hey! You!
What are you doing?
Shoot him!
Draw your bow!
Juliet!
It's the Capulet girl!
The Red Whirlwind was really the daughter of the Capulets?!
The red wind will rage as much as it needs to!
Raise the wind of freedom in Neo Verona!
Capulet.
Wearing the armor of resolution, you gaze upon the dark stronghold...
A menace looms before you...
The battle to overcome is the one against one's self.
To meet the challenge is the imperative of youth...
...so that you may take pride that your course has never been false.
