IT MAKES ME HAPPY THAT YOU WORRY ABOUT ME.
IT IS GOING TO GIVE ME BAD HABITS.
BECAUSE I KEEP WANTING YOU TO WORRY ABOUT ME
THE PEOPLE OF THE PRINCESS'S PALACE...
AH...!
I'VE SENT THEM SOMEWHERE ELSE FOR A BIT.
I'LL HAVE THEM SENT BACK TO THE ROYAL PALACE SOON ENOUGH.
WE'RE GOING BACK TO THE DESERT, LEAH.
...LET'S LEAVE AS SOON AS THE DAY BREAKS TOMORROW.
WHEN YOU FIRST SAW THE DESERT, DO YOU REMEMBER HOW MUCH YOU LOVED IT?
THE DESERT...
I ONLY SAW IT IN DREAMS... BUT IS THE REAL DESERT JUST AS BEAUTIFUL?
I WANT TO TOUCH IT WITH MY OWN HANDS. I WANT TO WALK ON THE SAND...
...WHY DIDN'T YOU TAKE ME WITH YOU FROM THE START?
BECAUSE YOU WERE UNDER A SPELL.
YOU FORGOT ME...
YOU FORGOT EVERYTHING ELSE.
...STILL, IT DOESN'T MATTER NOW.
DO I HAVE TO STAY IN ESTIA TO RECOVER MY MEMORIES?
THAT'S WHY...
BUT AT THIS RATE, THE MEMORIES OF ME HE'S TALKING ABOUT WILL NEVER COME BACK.
HE TOLD ME TO ACCEPT THAT AND LEAVE WITH HIM FOR THE DESERT ANYWAY.
HE TOLD ME TO RUN AWAY WITH HIM EVEN IF I LOVED SOMEONE ELSE...
MEMORIES...
I WAS SO DEEPLY FALLEN FOR HIM THAT I HAD RESOLVED TO THROW AWAY EVEN THE PRINCESS'S NAME AND RUN AWAY.
YET FOR SOME REASON, BLERVON WOULDN'T ERASE FROM MY MIND.
I SIMPLY COULDN'T BREAK FREE FROM HIM.
EVEN WHILE BEING RIGHT HERE WITH HIM, THINKING OF BLERVON...
...IT'S FINE.
WHATEVER YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT, IT'S ALL FINE.
...I WANT TO FORGET.
IT'S TOO PAINFUL...
AH, ISHAKAN...
HNGH, HAA...
IF I DON'T SAY HIS NAME, I FEEL LIKE I'LL BLURT OUT SOMEONE ELSE'S NAME...
HOLD ME...
I WANT TO FILL MYSELF UP WITH THIS MAN FROM HEAD TO TOE.
...NOT RIGHT NOW.
BECAUSE I DON'T TRUST MYSELF TO BE GENTLE WITH YOU.
YOU REALLY HAVE NO FEAR, DO YOU...
NOT EVEN KNOWING HOW TO BE SCARED.
WITH A MAN THIS TENDER, WHY ON EARTH DID I END UP LOVING HIM?
WHY DO I LOVE A MAN LIKE THAT?
THE PERSON YOU TRULY LOVE IS BLERVON.
NO...
GO TO BLERVON'S SIDE!
NO...!!!
UGH!
WHAT IS THIS...?
WHY DOES IT SMELL LIKE SOMEONE'S BURNING...
THAT BASTARD...
SET FIRE TO THE ORCHARD!
I DIDN'T THINK HE'D LET US GO WITHOUT A FIGHT,
BUT I NEVER THOUGHT HE'D GO THIS FAR...
...ARE YOU AWAKE?
IT'S NO BIG DEAL, SO YOU DON'T NEED TO WORRY.
MYURA.
THE AIR ISN'T GOOD HERE, SO SHALL WE WAIT FOR ISHAKAN SOMEWHERE ELSE?
WILL IT BE OKAY?
I RUSHED OUT BLINDLY RIGHT AFTER WAKING UP,
BUT TO THINK THINGS WOULD TURN OUT LIKE THIS OVERNIGHT...
AT THIS RATE, ISHAKAN AND BLERVON WILL...
LEAH!
AT THIS RATE...
THERE'S NO WAY I CAN JUST ESCAPE ALONE...!
JUDGING BY THE WAY YOU FRANTICALLY CHASED AFTER ME,
I SUPPOSE YOU LIKED LAST NIGHT'S GIFT.
...HOW DARE A LOWLY, SAVAGE BASTARD COVET THE PRINCESS OF ESTIA.
IF WE'RE GOING TO PUT IT THAT WAY, YOU AREN'T ALL THAT NOBLE YOURSELF, ARE YOU.
AREN'T YOU JUST FROM THE FILTHY BLOODLINE OF
SHUT UP!!!
PRINCESS!
AAAH AAH AGH!!!!
FROM NOW ON, IT'S ONE BY ONE.
I'LL KILL THE COURT CHAMBERLAIN AND THE MINISTER OF FINANCE FIRST,
AND THE ROYAL KNIGHTS NEXT.
AND FOR THE VERY LAST, I'LL TAKE MY OWN LIFE.
I'M GOING TO DIE, LEAH.
THE PERSON YOU LOVE IS GOING TO DIE.
ANSWER ME.
ANSWER ME, LEAH!
Ishakan clears the princess's palace and tells Leah they will leave for the desert at daybreak. Their tender night turns painful as Leah remains haunted by Blervon and lost memories, clinging to Ishakan to forget. A strange voice urges her toward Blervon before the smell of burning interrupts them — the orchard has been set on fire. Blervon appears and threatens to kill the court's officials and himself, demanding Leah answer him.
