(Side Conversation)
Killfith: Murno's going to look at the enchanted crystals. Why are you moving so slowly?
Rif: But, I was just thinking that if I went to investigate the crystals too, I might just get in the way...
Killfith: ... Tch.
Rif: Haha, I'm just kidding. Let's get going!
(End)
Further ahead…
Tram: I was beginning to wonder if you'd gotten lost somewhere along the way.
Rif: We're not lost at all. Right, Killfith?
Killfith: I'm here. Is there someone I have to collect?
Rif: See there! … Wait, what?!
Tram: They have a good relationship, don't they?
Murno: They really do.
Magdorad: (from a distance) Graaarrr…
Rif: What was that?!
Tram: It sounds like Magdorad has gotten a lot better. That's good to know…
-He was so weak after bringing Anise back that I was worried he might not recover.
Murno: Why do you think he was so weakened?
Killfith: When you all fell off the cliff, he dove in with me so that he could rescue that human Anise.
-He’s lucky he survived, considering that as a fire-breather, his weakness is water.
Rif: Going that far just to save her...
Tram: Anise and Magdorad are bound in such a way that she can manipulate Magdorad’s thoughts.
-Perhaps that’s the reason why Voijin led Anise in particular to his side.
Murno: In other words, he wanted to obtain Magdorad's powers…
Tram: Voijin and his companions had heard rumors that a Summon Creature with enormous strength was hidden in this village, and that's what they came looking for...
-After they had taken the villagers hostage, they threatened to take a life for as long as the Summon Creature did not reveal itself.
-And then, in order to prove that they were serious… they grabbed one of the villagers… Muzan… and ended his life.
-That man was not only serving as the village chief at the time, but was my father… they stole his life away, and then…
-Gallahan's wife and child as well...
Murno: That's awful...
Rif: How could they do that?! That’s completely unforgivable…
-But, why didn't you use the Summon Creatures to fight? Even with just the two of them, wouldn't you have been able to win?
Tram: Even if we had done that, they probably would have continued picking us off. With things like that, and so many defenseless people already…
-But even more than that, if they had managed to sow discord in both Magdorad and Lord Nushi, everyone in the village would have been killed.
Rif: (face falls) …
Tram: Therefore, in order to prevent further sacrifices... only the Phantom Dragon came in our defense…
-Anise… unveiled Magdorad... seeking to sacrifice herself...
Rif: I didn't know that...
Tram: After everything we went through... how on earth did she get trapped in their grasp...?
Murno: …
Tram: Ah, forgive me. Let's hurry on ahead.
-(leaves with Murno)
Rif: (...)
