Lonesome Dragoness - Chapter 4: Their Bond - Episode 3
Lyria tries persuading Grea to end her rampage lest she injure herself any more, but the dragoness seems to view the crew members as enemies and attacks them. A young man and young woman suddenly arrive to help sway Grea.
Grea: ...
Shockwaves of incredible power radiate from within Grea. They seem capable of destroying absolutely everything around her.
(Captain) and the others are unable to move the tiniest bit in the face of the pressure.
Io: What is that? It's shaking my body!
Vyrn: I get it. That's the power of dragon blood if I've ever seen it.
Lyria: Grea...
Grea: ...
???: ...
Grea stands in place without moving.
The aberrations seem to view that as an opening and attack all at once.
Grea: Oof!
Grea's casual attack is enough to blow back all of the attacking aberrations.
That impact crumbles all of the remaining monoliths and warps the magic circle.
Vyrn: What!
Io: That force...
Aberrant Tower: That power is not human. Could it be the power of the primal beasts?
Grea: ...
Aberrant Tower: The gate between worlds cannot be closed. Stop her!
Upon this order, the aberrations form a circle around Grea and launch themselves at her.
Grea: Aaaaaah!
Grea annihilates the attacking creatures with her staggering power.
The aberrations, however, have numbers on their side. Grea is eventually injured by wave after attacking wave.
Grea: Haaah! Haaah!
Grea: Ugaaaah!
No matter how injured she may be, Grea's fighting spirit and deathly rage enable her to keep fighting at full power.
Vyrn: Hey, this is bad! If this keeps up, Grea's going to—
Io: She's calm for now, but the moment that she sees more of them, she's going to start up with them.
Io: But, anyway, if this keeps going—
Lyria: There aren't as many enemies as before. We have to help Grea and then all get out of here, (Captain).
Lyria: If not, then Grea's going to—
While Lyria panics, (Captain) points to the students beneath the fallen monuments.
Lyria: Oh...
Vyrn: Yeah, so we have to save the students who were turned into monoliths first.
Io: That's right. If we don't act, they're going to get dragged into the battle.
Lyria: Okay!
Io: Wait, (Captain)! Lyria!
Io: We have to stop Grea, but before that we have to help the people who were trapped in monoliths.
Io: If we don't act, they're going to get dragged into the battle. It'll be awful!
Lyria: Ah!
Io: We have to help those people while Grea distracts the enemies.

Lyria: Okay. All right then.
(Captain) and the rest of the crew members begin carrying out the students who were trapped in monoliths.
Boy 1: Groan...
Girl 2: ...
Vyrn: That should be all of them.
Io: Let's go stop Grea then!
Lyria: Okay!
Grea: Aaaaaah!
Though Grea's body is covered in wounds, she continues attacking the aberrations ferociously.
Aberrant Tower: We have not fallen behind, but we lack a decisive attack.
Aberrant Tower: This, like any other recreation, grows tiresome in time. We shall now bring this to an end.
Grea: Grrrr!
Lyria: Grea, please stop!
Grea: ...!
Lyria: I know what I told you, Grea! I told you that I didn't want to see the people that I care about get hurt.
Lyria: And I care about you, Grea!
Lyria: So I don't want to see you fighting when you're as hurt as you are.
Vyrn: Me either, Pianista. So just cool down and—
Lyria and the others try convincing Grea to stop, but Grea directs her attacks at them without hesitation.
Grea: Gaaaah!
(Captain)'s blade barely manages to intercept the attack that was directed at Lyria.
Grea: ...!
Grea's instincts put her on guard.
Io: Now! Let's pull out of here and get Grea away from those things.
Having departed from the area near the core monolith, the party departs down a corridor which connects the clock tower with other areas.
Just as they had hoped, Grea pursues them. The party succeeds in seperating Grea from the aberrations.
Grea: ...
Vyrn: It looks like Pianista's guard is up. Don't give her a chance to attack, (Captain).
A barrier is suddenly deployed as if to block the entrance to the clock tower.
Grea: ...!
Vyrn: What! The entrance to the clock tower!
Aberrations: ...
Aberrant Tower: Maintain the containment barrier that has been deployed. Do not allow them to interfere with the transworld gate.
Aberrant Tower: This is the last step we can take. We must act precisely.
Vyrn: Whoa, hey! How are we supposed to get back in?
Io: That can wait! For now we have to do something about Grea!
Grea: ...
Lyria: Please, Grea! Go back to being the sweet Grea that you were before.
Grea: ...
Lyria: Grea, you told me something, didn't you? That you don't want to hurt other people. And that you don't want to use your power.
Lyria: But you're going to hurt them again. Even if you're just trying to protect us.
Lyria: So please!
Grea: Aaagh!
Lyria's attempt at persuasion doesn't seem to reach Grea, who begins to raise her right hand.
Lyria: Grea!
???: Settle down, Dragoness!
???: I'm your friend, and I'd like to help you.
A young man just barely intercepts Grea's attack with the swing of a sorcerous blade.
???: Princess, now's our chance!
???: Yeah!
Magical chains wrap around Grea, and she stops moving.
Grea: ...!
Lyria: Grea!
???: She's fine. That will only restrain her.
???: And even then, it'll only last a little bit.
Lyria: Are you students from Mysteria?
???: Yes.
???: And we're Grea's friends too.
Grea: Gaaaah!
???: We can talk later. This restraining magic won't last long.
Grea: Aaaaaah!
Lyria: ...?
???: You're kidding! How could she break them that fast!
???: That's Grea all right.
Grea: ...!
Grea treats the girl who fired the restraint magic to be an enemy, and she directs her bestial attacks toward the her.
Grea: Aaaaaah!
???: Owen! We have to draw Grea out.
Owen: Yes ma'am!
???: Grea, we're here to help you!
