Ch.20: Darkling Woods

北米版ファイアーエムブレム聖魔の光石「the Sacred Stones」の章会話（エイリーク編20章：闇の樹海）。

ワールドマップ

According to legend, the Sacred Stones
have sealed evil away from the world.▼
Four of the fives stones have been destroyed,
leaving only the last stone intact.▼
The last stone must be protected to stave
off the Demon King's restoration.▼
Eirika and company challenge the demons of
Darkling Woods.▼
According to legend,▼
the original possessors of the Sacred Stones
defeated the Demon King in Darkling Woods.▼
His foul blood seeped into the land,
corrupting every seed and every root.▼
The once-pristine forest was transformed by
the flood of disease and venom.▼
Legend says the Demon King's corpse lies
there still, not dead but dreaming.▼
Dreaming of when the last stone is crushed,▼
and he will rise from his bad of rocks and
worms and return to the surface.▼
Within Darkling Woods, hideous friends roam
in increasing numbers, as if responding▼
to some unheard call...▼

オープニング

Demon King:

Mm...hah hah...▼
A moment more, and my rebirth
will be unstoppable--irreversible.▼
None remain who can stop me now.▼

Morva:

So, you've returned, have you?▼

Demon King:

Hm?▼

Morva:

You can clothe yourself human flesh,
but you cannot hide your foul mien.▼
Eight hundred years wasn't long enough,
Demon King.▼

Demon King:

One of the dragonkin, hm?▼
Ah, I've seen your face
before, lizard.▼
Yes, during that accursed
battle so long ago.▼
When those wretched men bound
me in their fetters.▼
They fought with an ally from
the dragonkin at their side...▼
I believe his name was Morva.▼

Morva:

The protection of the blessed stones
is lost. The dark is rising.▼
Malevolence given will and from now
walks these lands unopposed.▼
Ancient king of shadows...
they appear to be waiting for you.▼

Demon King:

Very perceptive. And now I am here.▼
I must tell them their wait is over.
I must tell them I have been reborn.▼
Begone, dragon.▼
I am changed. I can no longer be
stopped by the likes of you.▼

Morva:

I live and breathe to protect mankind.
I cannot abandon them to you.▼
Now, as it once did so long ago, there
woods will witness your defeat.▼

Demon King:

So, your dragon blood still runs so
hot that you would dare to stop me?▼
Dragons. That reminds me...▼
Not long back, I fought a rabble of men
who traveled with a dragon child.▼
Tell me, Morva, was that your daughter?▼

Morva:

...Myrrh left this place long ago to
test the limits of your influence.▼
Could she have...?▼

Demon King:

Could she have what?
Pray, continue.▼

Morva:

You will answer me.
Your reply will determine...▼

Demon King:

Ha ha ha ha ha...▼
Such information has no use
to you now.▼
You have dared to challenge me.
You have no time for joy or sorrow.▼
No, best to focus now on this, the
moment of your death.▼
I would hate for you to miss it.▼

Ephraim:

This awful darkness...▼

Eirika:

I know...
I can feel it too.▼

Seth:

This is Darkling Woods...▼
It was here the heroes met the Demon King
and with the Sacred Stones defeated him.▼
I've heard the lingering energies of that
battle are the source of the monsters.▼
But I never imagined it would be as bad
as this...▼

Myrrh:

It's worse then before...
It's grown so much stronger.▼
Simply standing here is
a struggle...▼
But we don't need to worry.▼
My father is here. He'll
take care of everything.▼

Eirika:

Your father?▼

Myrrh:

Over there.▼
On the other side of that swamp is
the Black Temple of the Demon King.▼
My father stands guard near it.▼
This is where my father and I have
lived for as long as I can remember.▼

Ephraim:

I see. So this forest
is like a home to you.▼

Myrrh:

Uh-huh...▼
I get to see Father again.
I'm so happy.▼
My foster father leads the
dragon tribe.▼
In the last great war...both
of my true parents were killed.▼
Morva took me in and raised me
as though I were his own child.▼

Eirika:

So that's how you
came to live here...▼

Myrrh:

My father holds back the monsters
that are born in Darkling Woods.▼
He's so strong, and so very gentle.▼
One day, I hope to be like him...▼
......Oh!▼

Eirika:

Myrrh, what's wrong?▼

Seth:

Princess Eirika, Prince Ephraim,
we're under attack.▼
A horde of those foul beasts
is headed straight for us.▼

Myrrh:

......▼

Eirika:

Myrrh, are you well? If you're
ill, we should get you to--▼

Myrrh:

No, no... It's nothing.▼
I'll fight with you.▼
I'll fight, and we'll drive
back the dark children.▼

Evil Lyon:

Ha ha ha ha...▼
Riev...
I'm leaving this to you.▼

Riev:

Heh heh heh...
As you wish.▼
Please proceed with the rites
of resurrection, sire.▼

イベント

ENEMY PHASE1直前

Riev:

Heh heh heh...▼
Soon...soon...
It happens soon!▼
The Demon King will be restored
to all his former glory!▼
And I, his faithful servant, will
bask in his radiant power...▼
Then, oh, then I will have my
revenge on those who scorned me!▼
The Demon King has created for me
a fine weapon--a draco zombie!▼
This hierce beast and I will guard
the Black Temple's entrance.▼
As long as we stand watch, no one
will interrupt his rituals.▼
We will drown all who dare approach
in this virulent mud!▼
Heh heh heh...
heh heh heh heh heh!▼

戦闘

アーヴ初戦時

ラーチェル

Riev:

heh heh heh.
The young lady of Rausten...▼
The more cruel and
gruesome your death,▼
the more that cur Mansel
would weep, am I right?
And that would make me
so very, very happy.▼

L'Arachel:

Do you think your words
will frighten me?▼
I am the princess L'Arachel!
Slaying demons is my forte!▼
You who have sold your soul
to the soulless...▼
I grant you release from
your wretched existence.▼

ラーチェル以外

Riev:

Grr...
Your eyes annoy me...▼
Why do you not despair?
Why do you not surrender?▼

アーヴ撃破時

Riev:

Heh heh heh...▼
Even if you defeat me, you're
too late to stop it.▼
The one true demon...
will rise...▼

ムルヴァ初戦時／ミルラ

Myrrh:

...Urrgh...▼
I'm...sorry...▼

クリア後

Ephraim:

So this is the Black Temple...
The Demon King is here.▼

Eirika:

We have to stop him before he
can begin the ritual.▼
Let's waste no time, Brother.▼

Myrrh:

......▼
I'm sorry...Father...▼

Eirika:

Myrrh...
What is it?▼

Myrrh:

Um...▼
I...▼
I just met with my father.▼
I had not seen or spoken with
him for quite a while.▼

Eirika:

You saw your father?▼
Then we must speak with him--▼

Myrrh:

No...
He told me he couldn't see you.▼
He said it wasn't a good idea
for him to meet so many people.▼
As the tribal chieftain, he feels
he should maintain his distance.▼

Eirika:

It that so...
That's too bad.▼

Myrrh:

But he offered me words encouragement
and praised my efforts thus far.▼
He told me is his kindly voice to
come home to him safely.▼
I will do my best to honor his
faith in me.▼

Eirika:

He sounds like a good father.▼

Myrrh:

He is...▼
Mistress Eirika...
I'll do all I can.▼
For my father--and for
all of you as well.▼
I will help you, and we
will defeat the Demon King.▼

Eirika:

Are you sure you want to
go with us, Myrrh?▼
You had so wanted to
be with your father...▼

Myrrh:

Yes...I'm sure.▼
Once we are finished dealing with
this evil, I will have time then.▼
Let's hurry, Mistress Eirika.▼

Eirika:

Myrrh...▼
I understand.
Let's get moving.▼
The faster we cant end this
nightmare, the better.▼

Myrrh:

From this building...
a repulsive energy oozes.▼
The Demon King... He's here.▼

Lyon:

Urr...rrraa...▼

Demon King:

Lyon...
It's almost time.▼
You're beloved Eirika
is on her way.▼

Lyon:

Eirika...▼
Don't come...▼
It's already...▼

Demon King:

Ha ha... Lyon,
prince of frailty.▼
To believe that a weak man like
you thought to appose me...▼
You're an arrogant little
insect, nothing more.▼
And now, you're dead...▼
I will devour you, and you
will be lost forever.▼

Lyon:

Urr...ugh...▼
Uh!
Grrraaaaa!!▼

Demon King:

Ha ha. Does it hurt?
Are you suffering?▼
Oh, but it does not end for
you yet. Oh, no.▼
I've left you this one shard
of awareness for a reason.▼
I want you to watch yourself
as you crush Eirika.▼
You should thank me!
Ha ha...hah hah hah!▼

Lyon:

Ei...Eirika...▼
