I WILL BE ATTENDING THE MASS TODAY. LIKE MANY OTHERS ON THE BATTLEFIELD... LET'S NOT BOTHER... ...I SOUGHT A HIGHER BEING. REGARDLESS OF WHETHER MY PRAYERS ARE ANSWERED... JUST... ...FORGET ABOUT YESTERDAY... WHETHER OR NOT IT'S BECAUSE I NEED A SAFE HAVEN... ...I POUR OUT MY THOUGHTS THROUGH PRAYER. IT FEELS CATHARTIC WHEN I DO SO. ...HEINER...? Episode 42 LET US BEGIN WITH A PRAYER. IN OUR MIDST IS OUR... IN OUR MIDST... THINKING ABOUT IT, THIS IS THE ONLY MILITARY CHURCH IN THE REAR. THE ONLY PLACE YOU CAN ATTEND A FORMAL MASS. IT PROBABLY WASN'T COINCIDENTAL NOR INTENTIONAL... HEINER DOESN'T BELIEVE IN A GOD. BUT I HEARD HE ATTENDED THE CHURCH EVER SINCE HE WAS YOUNG. I WONDER WHY... WHEN HEINER WAS YOUNG... WAS IT HIS TRAINING DAYS IN SUTHERLANE? MY FATHER WAS IN CHARGE OF THE TRAINING AT THAT ISLAND. SINCE HE WAS A DEVOUT BELIEVER... ...HE MAY HAVE ALSO ORDERED THE TRAINEES TO ATTEND CHURCH... ...THE TRAINEES? I... I DIDN'T THINK ABOUT IT THAT WAY. THE REASON HEINER HATED ME. MY FATHER WAS A NOBLE, A MILITARY MAN, AND A PERSECUTOR OF THE REVOLUTIONARIES. AND I WAS HIS DAUGHTER. I THOUGHT IT WAS ONLY NATURAL FOR HEINER TO HATE ME. BUT... AS FOR WHY HE HATED ME... I NEVER THOUGHT TOO DEEPLY ABOUT IT. I HAD NEVER ASKED HIM ABOUT HIS PAST... MAYBE BECAUSE I VAGUELY ASSUMED IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH ME. I GUESS I HAD BEEN AVOIDING THE ISSUE. HIS REAL PAST. WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO HIM... I DON'T WANT TO FACE IT. ...WHY AM I SUDDENLY LIKE THIS? OOPS! OWW... I'M SORRY-- WHERE ARE YOU GOING IN SUCH A HURRY? RYAN! A FAMILIAR FACE, FINALLY. HOW ARE YOU? I'M FINE. WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? DID YOU ALSO ATTEND MASS? JUST VISITING. WE BOTH MOVED TOGETHER AND I'VE BEEN HEARING ABOUT YOU, BUT WE NEVER MET, SO I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT BE HERE. SINCE YOU ALWAYS ATTENDED MASS, I THOUGHT I MIGHT RUN INTO YOU HERE. so here we are! OH, YOU'VE HEARD ABOUT ME... I WONDER WHAT HE HEARD. IT FEELS FUNNY SEEING YOU HERE. HUH? WAIT A MINUTE. WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR CHEEK? OH... JUST A WORK INJURY. DID YOU FALL? NO, IT WAS WHILE I WAS ATTENDING TO A PATIENT... HE THOUGHT WE WERE AMPUTATING HIS LEG AND PANICKED. OH, DEAR... DID HE APOLOGIZE? I UNDERSTAND WHERE HE'S COMING FROM, BUT THIS WARRANTS AN APOLOGY. MAN, IF ONLY I WERE THERE-- A-AT LEAST IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE IT'LL SCAR! SINCE IT'S NOT A DEEP CUT, AND YOU'RE A NURSE-- WELL, YOU PROBABLY KNOW BETTER, RIGHT? THAT-- OH, WE'VE BLOCKED THE ENTRANCE! SORRY. wow, you're so tall! ANNETTE, WHY DON'T WE MOVE OVER THERE... ANNETTE? WHY ARE YOU SO SURPRISED? S-SIR! GREETINGS, COMMANDER!! THIS IS A CHURCH. NO NEED FOR THAT. YES, SIR! WHAT'S YOUR AFFILIATION? SGT. RYAN FROMM FROM THE 62ND DIVISION RECRUITING BATTALION, SIR! DID YOU RELOCATE HERE RECENTLY? YES, SIR! I WAS PREVIOUSLY STATIONED AT THE FRONT LINES! HOW LONG HAVE YOU SERVED? SIX YEARS, SIR! BUT YOU'RE STILL A SERGEANT? PROMOTIONS ARE USUALLY QUICKER DURING WARTIMES. MY APOLOGIES, SIR!!! HE'S... ...NOT JUST ASKING QUESTIONS. HE'S TRYING TO BE HURTFUL. DO YOU KNOW EACH OTHER? Y-YES, SIR! YOU MET AT THE FRONT LINES? YES, SIR! ARE YOU TWO CLOSE? P-PARDON?
