Phantagrande Skydom - Amalthea Island
Fourth Hall, Crew of Enforcers
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 30: The Dawn of Truth - Episode 1
The crew learns more about Monika's strength as they continue rushing to the Black Knight's location.
Monika: Those imperial fiends... How dare they dupe us!
Vyrn: For someone so small, this lady's got a pretty scary temper...
Lecia: It's wrong to judge a book by its cover.
Lecia: Despite her size, Monika is the most skilled member of the Fourth Fleet.
Lecia: We wouldn't have stood a chance against the Black Knight without her.
Vyrn: Whoa! That's a lot of strength for such a tiny package!
Monika: It's really nothing.
But would you please refrain from calling me tiny?
But would you please refrain from calling me tiny?
Monika: I'm a bit older than a toddler after all.
Lyria: So, Monika, just how old are you?
Monika: Humph. Didn't you ever learn that it's rude to ask a woman her age?
Monika: I think we've had enough chit-chat for now. The Black Knight is being held just up ahead. Let's hurry!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 30: The Dawn of Truth - Episode 1: Scene 2
During the meeting with the Black Knight, the crew learns that she is actually Apollonia Vaar, Eugen's daughter. Their unhappy reunion is cut short by the sound of approaching soldiers.
Lecia and Monika lead the party to the Black Knight's location.
Black Knight: You swine... What do you want with me?
Eugen: Apollonia...
Black Knight: Don't use that name so brazenly! Do you actually think you have the right to call me that?
Eugen: ...
Lecia: Th-that seems harsh...
Rackam: Aye... It does. We know our ol' pal Eugen here has somethin' of a link with the Black Knight.
Rackam: But he won't fill us in on any of the particulars.
Lecia: They may have had some issues in the past. But, still, to harbor this much hostility for your own father...
Rackam: Did you say father?
Lecia: Yes... The Black Knight, also known as Apollonia Vaar, is Eugen's daughter.
Eugen: ...
Black Knight: ...
Lyria: Wh-what!
Io: Then that must mean... No! We've been fighting Eugen's kid this whole time?
Katalina: That would explain the way Eugen reacted to her back in Auguste...
Rosetta: Haha. It must be a relief to finally have everything out in the open.
Rackam: Eugen, why didn't you tell us sooner?
Vyrn: Yeah! Seems real fishy!
Eugen: Well... I can't say those aren't all good points...
Black Knight: Humph. That's just the kind of man he is.
Black Knight: When things get tough, he'll betray anyone for his own benefit—just like he did to my mother!
Eugen: Wait! You don't—
Monika: I'm sorry. I know you both have a lot to talk about, but this situation is more dire than I feared.
Tzaka the Great: Hmm. Listening to the footsteps... I'd say we can expect five or six soldiers heading our way.
Monika: If we stay here, it'll only be a matter of minutes until they corner us.
Monika: Time is of the essence. We're leaving—and taking the Black Knight with us! Lend me a hand, (Captain)!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 30: The Dawn of Truth - Episode 2
The Black Knight provokes Monika as (Captain) and the others continue their escape.
Monika: Huff... huff...
Black Knight: Isn't this amusing. A pair of princesses forced to run away from their own castle.
Lecia: Sh-shut up!
Black Knight: Might I make a proposal? So long as I remain bound, I am nothing more than dead weight.
Monika: Are you suggesting we just leave you here?
Lyria: For the imperials to find! We can't do that!
Black Knight: If that is your choice. But, Lyria, the way you say that... it feels familiar.
Lyria: Huh?
Black Knight: So what do you have to say about the Crew of Enforcers? Surely the charges against me are well-known by now.
Black Knight: Your superiors will order my execution.
Black Knight: And that, fortunately for the empire, seems to be the desired outcome for all involved parties.
Black Knight: Leave me here and escape for yourselves.
Lecia: ...!
Monika: Humph. You disgrace yourself.
Lecia: Monika...
Monika: We are the crew of skyfarers that maintains order, the Crew of Enforcers.
Monika: So until you've had your trial, we absolutely won't allow the empire to kill you.
Monika: Even if that means risking our lives, we are going to make you face justice.
Monika: The Blue Knight founded our order on this principle—and we won't waver in upholding it.
Black Knight: As one would expect, you enforcers really are adamant.
Monika: If you can waste this much oxygen on flapping your jaw, then you can use some to pick up the pace. Move.
Monika: Soldiers are just around the corner. Ready your weapon, (Captain)!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 30: The Dawn of Truth - Episode 2: Scene 2
After dispatching a group of imperial soldiers, Lecia and Monika detail the charges against the Black Knight.
Tzaka the Great: Seems like the soldiers have scattered.
Katalina: Yes. I don't see any either. But we shouldn't let our guard down.
Lecia: Cough. Then if you'll permit me, I'll go over our current situation.
Lecia pulls a paper from her pocket and begins to read it.
Lecia: The Crew of Enforcers received an official request from the Erste Empire.
Lecia: Acting upon this request, we apprehended Apollonia Vaar, known as the Black Knight and the top advisor of the Erste Empire.
Lecia: We acted based on three charges made against the accused.
Lecia: One: taking control of the Erste Empire to stage an invasion of another island.
Lecia: Two: manufacturing dark essence, a highly volatile and prohibited substance.
Monika: And three: processing said dark essence into a powder form that alters the behavior and physicality of monsters.
Monika: This powder was circulated in secret, causing chaos in cities across the skies. Yep. That's all the charges.
Monika: Do you have any objections to the charges made by the Erste Empire?
Black Knight: Humph.
Lyria: Black Knight...
Io: So... does that mean she's pleading guilty?
Tzaka the Great: No, just hold on, Io. It's a little early to decide that.
Io: But, Master! Remember what she did to Valtz?
Black Knight: The only verdict I have accepted is my own defeat. I acknowledge that this woman is more skilled than I.
Black Knight: But I have no intention of giving up. I'll protect her... Orchis...
Imperial Soldier: Found her! The Black Knight!
Rosetta: Oh my. It's going to be hard to continue our little chat with all this commotion.
Rosetta: These soldiers should know better—no butting in when adults are talking. I'll have to teach them a lesson they won't forget!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 30: The Dawn of Truth - Episode 3
Lecia and Monika leave the crew to change the situation on Amalthea Island.
Lecia: Haaah!
Imperial Soldier 1: Urgh! Over here! Get over here quick!
Imperial Soldier 2: What happened?
Lecia: Tch. We won't get anywhere like this!
Monika: Things are looking bad, but we'll have to pull through somehow.
Monika: Lecia, leave this squadron for (Captain) to handle. We have to go command our own troops!
Lecia: Right! But what about the Black Knight?
Monika: (Captain)'s crew is strong—both in body and character. They won't turn her over so easily.
Io: Maybe. Maybe not...
Monika: Hah. Anyway, Lecia, let's move out!
Lecia: R-roger!
Lecia and Monika leave the room to fix the situation on Amalthea Island.
Tzaka the Great: Now then, Black Knight Apollonia, let's proceed—
Black Knight: Really? With the questioning? Everything is just as those two girls recounted.
Tzaka the Great: Lies.
Black Knight: How do you—
Tzaka the Great: Those charges. You didn't have all that much to do with them, did you?
Io: Master, what are you implying? This evil woman was pulling the strings the whole time...
Tzaka the Great: Oh. Looks like we have company. We'll have to settle this matter later.
Tzaka the Great: We'll talk after securing the location. Look alive, (Captain)!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 30: The Dawn of Truth - Episode 3: Scene 2
Tzaka the Great affirms that the Black Knight is not likely guilty of the incident in the Valtz Duchy.
Rackam: What makes you think the Black Knight didn't commit those atrocities?
Eugen: Not that I think you would, but you're not tryin' to cover up for her, are ya?
Tzaka the Great: No. I'm not that soft-hearted. I have no intention of showing mercy to someone who threatens Valtz.
Io: Then why defend her!
Tzaka the Great: I said, to someone who threatens Valtz.
Tzaka the Great: Black Knight. Do you understand what I'm getting at?
Black Knight: ...
Tzaka the Great: Io, listen carefully.
Tzaka the Great: I suspect that the one who threw Valtz into disarray is, in fact, not the Black Knight.
Rackam: Right—I mean the one who made that giant hunk o' metal was you.
Rackam: But that was all because the Black Knight was controllin' you, right?
Tzaka the Great: No, I don't think so. It's not likely that the Black Knight was who led me astray.
Black Knight: ...
Io: There's no way that's the case! Like... there was no one else there!
Katalina: Tch. More troops are drawing near.
Katalina: Let's get them before they know what's happening, (Captain)!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 30: The Dawn of Truth - Episode 4
Tzaka the Great claims that he had been manipulated by someone who wanted to separate Orchis from the Black Knight.
Tzaka the Great: Someone was indeed manipulating me when I was rebuilding the Colossus.
Tzaka the Great: Although the memory is hazy, I remember most of it.
Tzaka the Great: My targets were Lyria and the other girl.
Lyria: ...
Tzaka the Great: The one accompanied by the Black Knight. I was supposed to take both of them.
Tzaka the Great: Someone gave me those orders, but it wasn't the Black Knight. I can't for the life of me remember who that someone was.
Rosetta: I see. So this someone was the true puppet master all along?
Katalina: If that's truly the case, then who could it be?
Tzaka the Great: I do not know. However, one thing is for certain...
Tzaka the Great: Whoever it is, they stand in opposition to the Black Knight.
Tzaka the Great: And they wanted me to snatch that girl away from the Black Knight...
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 30: The Dawn of Truth - Episode 4: Scene 2
Katalina and Rackam reflect on their encounter with the Black Knight back at the Valtz Duchy. The Black Knight neither confirms or denies their speculation.
Black Knight: ...
Katalina: Hmm...
Lyria: What's the matter, Katalina?
Katalina: Nothing, it's just thinking back on it, there are a few things that give me pause.
Katalina: For example, Black Knight, didn't you say something like...
Katalina: The archduke is targeting Lyria, you say?
Black Knight: Yes. His Excellency seemed obsessed with something when I last held an audience with him.
Katalina: Black Knight, when you had that audience with the archduke, was he already being manipulated?
Black Knight: ...
Rackam: Oh, yeah, that's the time you came to warn us.
Rackam: You said the archduke was goin' after both Lyria and Orchis.
Rackam: Takes a strange kinda mastermind to warn their enemies while tryin' to pull the strings.
Black Knight: ...
Tzaka the Great: So? Want to talk now? They're starting to figure it all out—even without your confession.
Eugen: Apollo...
Black Knight: Humph. Those without the power to face the truth will be consumed by it instead.
Black Knight: If you're going to press forth, then show me you have what it takes!
Act 1: Girl in Blue - Chapter 30: The Dawn of Truth - Episode 4: Scene 3
The Black Knight finds (Captain) and the crew suitably powerful for her aims, so she requests that they help her escape Amalthea Island.
Imperial Soldier: Urgh...
Rosetta: The very nerve... They just keep coming.
Rosetta: I wonder if those enforcer girls are really doing enough.
Vyrn: We've been fightin' in front of you for a while now. So you see how strong we are, right?
Black Knight: Indeed I have. So I will ask one final question.
Black Knight: Are you prepared to face the truth?
Choose: Yes...
Black Knight: Haha. Is that so? You don't disappoint...
Choose: Of course!
Black Knight: Don't take this lightly. A tragic fate awaits those who aren't prepared.
Black Knight: But then again, it could be that same self-confidence that's brought you this far...
Continue 1Lyria: Black Knight, please tell us. What were you fighting?
Lyria: And Orchis and I... What are we?
Black Knight: Lyria. If this is what you truly want, then I'll tell you.
Black Knight: However, it won't be the answer you're looking for. The truth is usually more disappointing than even the most terrible speculation.
Tzaka the Great: Haha. Might as well save your breath. This bunch won't be convinced with empty scare tactics.
Black Knight: Perhaps I have underestimated you.
Black Knight: All right. I expect that you are capable, so I will ask something of you.
Katalina: A request?
Black Knight: Aye. It's something that I can entrust only your crew with.
Black Knight: I want you to help me break out of here. Help me escape Amalthea Island.
The Black Knight turns her gaze to (Captain).
And just for a moment her eyes, full of fury and hellfire, shine with a burning ambition.
