Rajhu! Meian? Qataq? Rajhu?! Oh, I’m sorry! I didn’t see you there! Did you just get here? I don’t think I’ve seen you before…” No… Yes… I mean…! I’m looking for my family. A brown flighted fox among them? Oh yeah! They just passed…
this way… You have…
…red… eyes… Yeah… Oh, never mind... My name is Sarken, by the way. Who are you? Nabu… Ahh… Well it’s nice to meet you, Nabu! Well… I think I saw the winged fox pass by earlier. There were two others with him? Yes? Anyway… Your family should be right around here… Actually… It’s probably best if you wait for them
to come back out. And why is that? It’s the man they went to see… For the past few years he’s been going on
about the Nameless God’s incarnation being a…
red-eyed fya… No… The Nameless God is just a legend! So what if my eyes are red?! I’m just a normal fya! Listen to my son. The man on the other side of that door is
likely to try to kill you with no questions asked. Dad! What are you doing here? One of the guards told me about a little red-eyed
fya that entered the city earlier. I was coming to make sure Daruk didn’t decide
to go hunting him down for no reason. Daruk? He’s the one you were talking about?! Calm down! I’m not going to let him hurt you. I received word from one of the spirits
that the Nameless God’s incarnation has been dealt with. You’re in the clear.” What…? Nabu? Who is Daruk to you anyways? You sounded like you knew him. He… He is a repulsive, disgraceful, abusive wretch
who cares about nothing but wealth and status, who I am unfortunate enough to call my step-father. Your step-father? Sarken, I’m going to take this fya to our
home for the time being to get him away from Daruk. When the others are done-
Ah, Shasesq, I thought I heard your voice out here. And you bring with you the devil himself… Extinguish your magic… There will be no fighting here I will not allow you to kill a child because
of your prejudices. My prejudices?! That accursed fya was never supposed to exist
in the first place! He has brought nothing but suffering to my
people since the day he was born, when his mother
my wife died! I may not know who his father was,
but those unnatural red eyes are proof enough that evil flows through his veins
The moment the Oracle told us about the Nameless God’s incarnation
I knew it was either him or his brother… But his brother was killed and he’s the
only one left. The Oracle is a liar! There is no Nameless God! He made it all up, using past legends as a
base to manipulate everyone so he could-! And his blasphemy knows no ends… But, as you know very well, Daruk… One of the Great Spirits personally told me
that the incarnation has been dealt with and the threat has passed. And what Spirit was it?! Do I need to remind you that a Great Calamity
would be right up the Daemon of Desolation’s alley?! The purpose of the Great Spirits has always
been to protect. I trust his words. But that-!
Enough, Daruk! You may have been given jurisdiction over
O-jhenbel, but I am Lord here in Traseq
you will listen to what I have to say! You have no idea what you’re doing! You should be able to tell just by looking
at him that there is something wrong with that fya! Who has ever heard of anyone with red eyes?! Leave him alone! Whoever his real father was,
that is still your son! My brother! Qataq…! Listen to her! I will keep an eye on this fya for the time
being, but I will not allow you to kill a child based
on your superstitions! Fine! Let your city fall into ruin! But I won’t stay here any longer… Meian, Rajhu, Qataq! We're leaving... No, father. What did you say…? I said no. We’re not leaving Nabu alone with a bunch
of strangers. We’re all staying together. Then stay here, all of you! But don’t blame me when the devil murders
you to create his Second Great Calamity! Well… Now that that’s over… The four of you are welcome to stay in Traseq
if you want. Thank you, Lord Shasesq. Yes, and thank you for standing up for my
brother. Ahhh… About that… I’m still going to have to keep an eye on
your brother for a while. But I am not the incarnation of the Nameless God! I’m not going to attack your city! And I’m not saying you are! I am doing this,
not only for the peace of mind of my people, but your own sake as well
But-! Daruk has been going on about this for years
and no one has seen a red-eyed fya before you showed up. They will not easily trust you and,
if I don’t have you under surveillance, someone is likely to try to harm you. And this is why we shouldn’t have come here
in the first place… Hey, it’ll be okay… They’ll soon see you’re not some monster
and then everything will fine again. They didn’t accept me in O-jhenbel… Why should things be any different now when
they also think I’m some kind of evil god? Eww… Gross! So you’re here after all… I thought you had had second thoughts. Second thoughts? What kind of coward do you take me for
No, I was just double-checking the area to make sure all the guards were taken care of. You killed them all? You were supposed to leave one as a messenger! I knew you would do something like this! Where is the resolve you had in Aregonia? If you’re going to follow through with this,
you must be willing to take the risks! It cannot be done halfway! I know, Ashia, I know it… Then stop taking the coward’s path! You cannot hide from Zirar and you cannot
hide from the emperor either! But it doesn’t matter if I killed all the
guards! They’ll know something happened,
just not who it was. I don’t plan to hide forever! Priest Yeusk? Is something wrong? Tell the emperor I need to speak with him! It’s urgent. something has happened to the Heijhan Dur! Yes, sir. Right away. The Emperor will speak with you. You may enter. Tell us what happened. Someone has unlocked one of the Heijhan Trak
spells… But… It wasn’t anyone from Norsen. No one was near the Heijhan Dur when it began
to glow And the spell unlocked was for the Lava Element
Meaning… Meaning the spell was taken from Kaylun? But no one would dare enter the cursed ruins! Unless one of the guards betrayed us to take
the power for themselves… But it is an honor to even be sent to such
an important post. They know the reasons,
and what could happen to them by unlocking a Heijhan Trak. You would have to be insane to even consider
taking one of those spells. Insane
or the Nameless God? We did receive reports that the red-eyed fya
had been spotted in Yurnath not long ago. Kaylun isn’t too far from there either. He could have been the one… That’s possible,
either him or anyone who had fallen victim to Kaylun’s curse. And we know there are at least two such people
yet to be apprehended. Cornerstone Lusef,
have your scouts made any progress in locating Zirar or Uraide? You're talking about Zirar and Uraide? But neither of them have their Bias towards the Lava Element They couldn't have unlocked that Heijhan Trak. Uraide’s trail has been stale for months. We’ve seen no signs of him… As for Zirar,
we chased her into the Jchita wasteland in hopes of letting the dragons do the work for
us, but it seems that Rent Soul of hers
is able to protect her from even them… Even a Jchita can’t touch that thing!? It would seem nothing can… Just like the giant crocodiles… It takes one to fight one… But even the crocodiles have a weakness
their human form. That’s how they managed to kill Idier
after all. Idoru and Ideti too. Just keep searching for answers. Even a Rent Soul can’t be invincible. So this is where you ran off to. We’ve been looking everywhere for you and-
So what do you want? What do I want? I’m trying to get you to come back home
to the rest of us. We finally found a place to stay
where people won’t try to kill you on sight, yet you’re moping around in windows! A place to stay? You didn’t think there was anything weird
about this? Or how convenient it all was? But the Lord received word from-
From the Daemon of Desolation? Honestly Meian
just how can stupid can you be? We were in Yurnath,
the Oracle makes a portal that leads us here, and then it’s suddenly safe for us to-
Wait the Oracle made that thing? I thought you said you cast it! What was I supposed to say? He made that portal, yes
but Rajhu was already at my throat enough about the Jchita dragon… I didn’t want to give him anything else
to yell at me over. Well we can talk to Rajhu and Qataq about
that… Come on,
I’ll show you where we’re staying. I don’t understand how Lord Shasesq could
let even let that thing run loose in the city… Well he did receive word that the threat had
passed. I still don’t trust his presence,
and I know I can’t be the only one. Something is bound to go wrong with that fya
around. And this close to the New Light Festival? I don’t trust it. So that’s where you went…! My father asked me to keep an eye on you. Hey
I know you’re not happy with this, but it’s for your own good as well! Hey, wait! Stop that! Nabu? Nabu? Nabu where did you go? You know,
I’m going to be in a lot of trouble if you don’t come back! Please? Nabu! Why you little…! I hope you intend to pay for th-! Oh…! Hey, Nabu? Was that you? Nabu! Nabu? What was…? No… No, it couldn’t be! Iakuy? Hey! Come back here! O-jhenbel? Why did he lead me to ruins of O-jhenbel? So it is you! But I don’t understand… I thought you were dead! I watched it happen! Where have you been all of this time?! Do I look alive to you? So…? You’re a ghost? But- ghosts aren’t real-
Or I mean… Well I never thought… Oh this must be racking your brain right now… That’s okay. I don’t believe in ghosts either. You are Iakuy, right…? Yeah! Though I go by Kat-hreq now. Kat-hreq? Uh… Yeah, okay. Whatever. What’s going on? Why are you here? In the middle of the ruins of O-jhenbel… To give you a warning. I wouldn’t run off on your own like this
again and
don’t go back to Traseq. Traseq? Well, you know
I’m not too fond of that place myself But why do you care? Why shouldn’t I? Oh, no reason… Wait! Where are you going? Iakuy! I mean… Kat-hreq! Come back! Oh nonono…! Alright, calm down, Nabu. You can hide. All you have to do is
Uh Ah! Huh? Meian? And…? Looks like Meian was right after all. He did go to O-jhenbel. I wasn’t able to track you down on my own
and I didn’t have time to go find Rajhu so… I got help. Okay, and what about them? Daruk. He’s been stirring up some trouble. I knew this would happen! This is why I didn’t want to go to Traseq
in the first place! So… So run! Stay away from the city until we tell you
it’s safe again! Were you trying to help the devil to escape?! Leave him alone! Nabu hasn’t done anything wrong! Maybe not yet
but you heard what the Oracle told us! We have to destroy the Nameless God before
his powers can awaken! Hurry! Go find Rajhu! Look, I am not-…! Silence. You will not speak unless spoken to. I knew Meian had been fooled by his lies,
but to think he could so quickly taint another… And there was a third. That white cheetah was there too
but we couldn’t catch him. I see. Then let’s get this over with
before his curse spreads even further! Let me go! Did I not just tell you to remain silent unless
spoken to? So how will it be? Shall we hang him outside the city? The Nameless God was said to have kept Fulfillment
at bay with his otherworldly flames for 4000 years
before she was able to take him down. So I will personally drown those flames in
the Nexsijh River. Let him go. Look at him! He’s absolutely terrified. Nabu has done nothing wrong
And what’s more… That is your son you are trying to murder! My brother! This…
is no son of mine. Did I father him? I think not. You may share the same mother,
but also remember that it was his birth that killed her. Your mother… My wife
He was a curse and a murderer from the day he was born! He is a terrified child! Do not talk back to me! To think that my own children would try to
defend such a beast… But once he is dead and his curses have been
lifted you will thank me for this. No. Look. Heeeey, calm down here! I haven’t done-! Sarken?! What are you doing?! I can’t just stand by and let this happen…! Now give me some of that malig venom! What?! I already fired the first shot! They have the antidote anyway,
and it’s the fastest way to get us all out of here. Us all? Why are you defending him? I will have you executed for that. Every last one of you! That arrow was laced in malig venom! Even you should know better than to keep fighting
like that. Now, let them go! I thank you for what you did back there
but I’m sorry for what it cost the whole lot of you… What’s done is done. Stop feeling sorry about the past and get
over it. Nabu…? Are you okay…? An entire city just tried to have me killed! And my should-be ‘father’
just tried to drown me! Do I look like I’m okay?! Enough. We need to get going again. We should be able to escape detection
if we can make it to the ruins of Kaylun. Kaylun? But isn’t that place supposed to be cursed? I know Kaylun is dangerous
but it’s our only choice right now. He’s right. I would rather take my chances with a rumored
curse than with the certainty of execution by those
enraged mobs. Now let’s go.
