"Record of Lodoss War: Episode 09"
Translated Speech Script.

Written by Aino Minako13

---------------------------------------------

Narrator : The war between the gods of light and darkness reached a climax in
which the mother goddess of the earth, Marfa, and the malevolent goddess,
Kardis, battled to the end.
After the fierce battle, the two goddesses perished like a flame flickering
away on the newly created land which was separated by the battle.
This land was later named by the people as the cursed island, "Lodoss."

--------------------------

At the Temple of Falaris

Narrator: Marmo, which was deprived of a master at the former "Battle of the Heroes,"
was in the midst of chaos. The creatures who were unified under the rule were
killing each other and repeated the strife of the "strong preying upon the weak"
as if they were wild beasts. That place returned to an appropriate appearance in
the name of the island of darkness.

Pirotase: A sacrifice?

Vagnard: There isn't a hand that can't use the sleeping power in the earth below for
the supreme king of young Lodoss.

Pirotase: Ah...it can't be. Kardis

Vagnard: In order to call forth the unknown power, we need the life of a High Elf.
As for now, do you think Ashram can take Lodoss?

--------------------------
You shall take the time to manage it.
The soul crushing can be done with the sword which was bathed in the blood
of the malevolent goddess. It won't be easy.

Ashram: What do you want to say?

Vagnard: The one who controls the demon sword rules Marmo; the one who holds the
Scepter of Domination rules Lodoss.

At the southernmost volcano, Mt Fire Dragon, there lives an evil dragon,
Shooting Star, who has been entrusted with it from the ancient kingdom.

Ashram: A thing like that...

Vagnard: ...not needed to conquer Lodoss?
The one who holds the Scepter of Domination rules Lodoss. Please don't
forget it.

Ashram: The Scepter of Domination

----------------------------------------------------------------------

At Fahn's Castle

Soldiers: Ohh....
Ohh....

Deed

Parn: You're overdoing it, King Kashue.

Kashue: To be serious is great, but to be reckless is different.

Parn: Sorry.

Messenger: Your Majesty. I seek admittance to the presence of His Majesty, Kashue, of
the kingdom of Flaim.

Kashue: Pull yourself together.

Messenger: Your Majesty, Sh...Shooting Star has...

Kashue: What?

Slayn: Wha'?
Please come in.
The priestess robe of Marfa, isn't it? It suits you well.

Lairia: Really?

Slayn: Ghim would be relieved now. Well then, I...

Lairia: Slayn, are you going somewhere?

Slayn: I don't know.
Well, I feel as if we have a while to go before true peace is gained.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back at Fahn's Castle

Parn: Ah... King Kashue

Kashue: I said that you're not allowed to.

Parn: But, the citizens of Flaim are actually suffering from the evil dragon.

Kashue: You're right. This is a problem of Flaim. You have your path to follow.

Parn: My...

Kashue: To inherit the rank of your father and to gather the holy knights

Parn: But, Y...Your Majesty

Kashue: Besides, if you go now, you would be a burden

Parn: Wha'?

Kashue: It's not like you to take your delusions into training.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Near a Lake

Deed: How long are you going to sulk?

Parn: Ahmn Hmph

Deed: Parn, it was good that you're not going with him.
Shooting Star is one of the remaining ancient dragons on Lodoss. The dragons
around here are no comparisons to the power of the ancient dragons. Even if
hundreds of people attack, there is no way to win.
King Kashue only said that because he was worried about you, Parn.

Parn: I know. I know, but...

Deed: We haven't met with everybody for some time since. Parn, you're
worried about Wood, aren't you?
You're worried if Karla has Woodchuck.

Parn: I...

Deed: Even if it's true, it's not our fault.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Wagnard's Room



Woodkarla: The one who holdeth the Scepter of Domination; dost he control Lodoss?

Vagnard: What?
You... Y...you can't be.

Indeed. You need a human body if you're to have eternal life. Even though
whatever body it may be.

Woodkarla: My name is Karla. I do not exist in a body.

Vagnard: Don't think that everything would be going your way.

Woodkarla: Kardis?

Vagnard: Even if you're a five hundred years old witch, you can't beat against the evil goddess, Kardis.

I'll resurrect the malevolent goddess, Kardis, to try to take her power
for myself.

Woodkarla: Thou hast never been careless, Vagnard.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vagnard: My plan has already been in motion.
The one who controls the demon sword rules Marmo. The one who holds the
Scepter of Domination rules Lodoss.

Ashram: What?

You can't be a spy if you can't kill your sense of existence.

Pirotase: I need to go away for awhile.

Ashram: What, were you inspired by Wagnard?

Pirotase: What? I shall be at your side before this cut completely
heals.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Lloyd, Capital of Valis

Sheris: The capital of Vallis? Depressing, isn't it?

Orson: The king's dead. The country shall take its time in recovering.

Sheris: I know about that.

Orson: Who're you looking for?

Sheris: Huh? N...no one
Wha'?

------------------------------------------------------------
At Fahn's Castle

Eto : Your Majesty, what did you say to Parn?

Kashue: I told him to go his way.

Eto: B...but, Parn...

Kashue: We're going on a dragon hunt.

Eto: King Kashue . . .

Kashue: Eto, I've entrusted Fianna to your care.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>On the Way to Mt. Fire Dragon

Ashram: Kashue's going to Mt Fire Dragon?

Magician: It seems that a mercenary soldier king would also need the
Scepter of Domination.

Soldier: Shall I get rid of the problem before you face it?

Ashram: Hmph
Whoa

Soldiers: Ahh
Ahh
Ohh

Ashram: Giddyap

Soldiers

Ashram

Soldier: You must look out for your life and your recklessness.

Ashram: Demon sword, do you know that your master has changed?
Demon sword of darkness.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At Fahn's Castle

Eto: Parn, I've poured you some tea.
King Kashue left you behind, and you can't start looking for Wood whom we
don't have any idea of where he is.
You're not yourself, Parn. You usually know what you want to do or what
you usually try to do.

Parn

Eto

Deed: Wha'?

Pirotase: Hmm

Parn

Deed

Pirotase: I wonder how good a High Elf was.

Deed: What do you want of me?

Pirotase: It seems there's a reason to your pride, isn't there?

Dark Elf 1: We have to report to Vagnard immediately.

Pirotase: No, we'll join up as is at Mt Fire Dragon

Dark Elf 1: Are you sure?

Pirotase: The only worthy person to follow is him.

Parn: What? Uh...y...you

Sheris: I came to repay a debt.

Parn: Uh, wha....?

Sheris: Well, quickly now. You're looking for her, aren't you?

Parn: What do you mean?
D...Deed?

Sheris: Wait. It isn't impossible, but this isn't a good place to fight.

Orson: Dark Elves: two males, one female. She's the strong one.

Sheris: Good then, just think about saving the girl. Leave the rest to us.

Deed: Huh?

Pirotase: Fairy of sleep, controller of illusions, control the person for my own
purpose. Fairy of sleep, controller of illusions, control the person for my own
purpose.

Dark Elves: What?

Pirotase: Shit

Parn: Why are you after Deed?

Pirotase: What? Hyurrie

Dark Elf 2: What?

Sheris: Yeah, it is. It's frightening when you anger a berserker. It makes no
difference even if you're a girl.

Pirotase: It looks like we better get out of here.

Parn

Deed: I...I'm okay. Their spells don't last that long. Instead, Mt Fire Dragon...

Parn: What?

Deed: Marmo's going to Mt Fire Dragon.

Parn: Marmo's going to Mt Fire Dragon?

Ashram: Wait for me, evil dragon. I'll defeat you and carry the Scepter of
Domination. I'll make Lodoss my own.

Kashue: Shooting Star, this time, I'll make you sleep permanently.

Deed: Marmo and Shooting Star, it's tough.

Parn: I''m going to Mt Fire Dragon.
Didn't you repay the debt?

Sheris: I have a feeling something interesting will happen if we go with you.
Isn't that right, Orson?

Deed: Thanks for the help back there a while ago.

Sheris: Even elves aren't a big of a deal.
Rest assured. From this point on, we'll help out.

Deed: It's okay. Parn won't fear anything if he finds the direction to run.

Narrator: The time has changed; the people have changed. There are those who
have ambitions. There are those who try to create a future. Their various
emotions now spring around Lodoss once more as they begin a new battle.
