SPILL HIS BLOOD ON THE ALTAR!!! ALL OF THE VILLAGERS WILL BE CURSED!!! HE KILLED A GOD!!! Forgive us, Kashigami-sama!! KASHIGAMI-SAMA!!! Ohhhh... what will we do?! That was Pantri-sama's last order...!! What has that man DONE?!! ...we must have BLOOD...!!! Give more to the gods!! Offer their lives!!! Before the gods become enraged!!! Sailors: ...sounds like he did something. All the people are screaming. Commodoooore... I can't believe him... What do they mean, he killed a god...?! Never interfere with tribal rituals... - Page 47 - People: CALGARA!!! Kill him!! Calm the wrath of the gods!!! Great Warrior Calgara-sama!!! Norland: I am an explorer from the Lvneel Kingdom of North Blue... Calgara: I CARE NOT WHO YOU ARE!!! YOU SHALL BE REJECTED!!! - Page 48 - Norland: ...IS THIS HOW YOU HAVE ALWAYS TREATED OTHERS...?!! EVEN THE SMALLEST THINGS ARE NECESSARY...!! FOR PROGRESS!!! Calgara: You have no right to speak of me so!!! Atone for your crimes to the gods!!! - Page 49 - People: Who IS that man...? He's trading blow for blow with Calgara!!! Both: Hahh... Hahh... hahh!! Norland: Wha-?! Calgara: Use this knife to kill yourself. A sacrifice to save the village should not be crying to mourn her own life. HAVE YOU NO SHAME?!!! Norland: Don't even... - Page 50 - Norland: THINK ABOUT THAT!!!! Musse: ...aah!!! - Page 51 - Sailors: C... COMMODORE!!! Norland: ...boys. Calgara: We have spent hundreds of years dealing with outsiders according to our religious laws. Do not look down upon the warriors of Shandora. AND YOU ARE GUILTY OF "GODSLAYING"!!! You cannot atone for this sin by your death alone!!! WE WILL HAVE ONE HUNDRED OF YOUR LIVES IN REPAYMENT!!! Norland: ...all you speak of is "lives", "sacrifice" and "blood"... is that what makes your gods happy? THIS CEREMONY IS AN INSULT TO US!!! - Page 52 - Sailors: ...what...? Commodore... Norland: I cannot stand ceremonies like this, that ignore the deeds of great men in the past!! This is an insult... TO THE EXPLORERS AND RESEARCHERS WHO GO TO SEA, IN ORDER TO BETTER THE LIVES OF HUMANITY!!!! Would your gods not find this reprehensible, when they know how you value life?!! Hahh... hahh... Give me... time. And I will purge this village... of the "evil spirits" afflicting it!! If I cannot fulfill this promise, you may do with me as you wish. - Page 53 - People: WHAT?!! Preposterous!!! Do you think yourself a GOD?!! Calgara: That is foolishness... you are going to die, right here and now!!! You would only use your time to escape!!! Norland: If I save your village from this tragedy without running away, SWEAR TO ME THAT YOU WILL NEVER CARRY OUT THIS RITUAL AGAIN!!! Chief: ...allow him to do as he says... we have his crew, at any rate. Man: Chief!! Chief: We will let them live until sunset, tomorrow. Norland: Perfect. - Page 54 - Sailors: Heeey, bring me a change of clothes. Clothes! I'm gonna catch a cold... sheesh. AAACHOO!! Sighh... why'd this have to happen...? We're gonna die tomorrow night. Don't be stupid. Believe in the commodore. There's no use believing in him if there aren't any "Kona Fruits" in that forest. Then believe there are... Hey, girly, I feel sorry for you, too. Being born in such a hardline traditional village. In you're born in our country, you could even marry royalty if you wanted to! Right?! Shut up! They were just about to kill that poor girl. Show some heart... - Page 55 - Musse: Who is he...? Sailors: Well, he's... a famed explorer in our land, as well as a "botanist"... He travels to unknown lands around the world... discovering and researching new kinds of plants. Among explorers, there are many botanists with great deeds to their names. They serve a valuable role in the progress of their people. But he's just TOO kind, you see... He can never let things like THIS go by... ...we can trust him. I'm hungry... When we're in a pinch... He'll come through... But still, what if- It won't happen, you dolt! Go to sleep. - Page 56 - Men: CHIEF... Why didn't you let Calgara kill him?! He has broken our precepts by simply trespassing onto this island!! HE *KILLED* KASHIGAMI-SAMA!!!! ONLY DISASTER SHALL BEFALL US!!! Chief: We'll have our answer by tomorrow. He is trying to save our village... there is no harm in waiting... Men: THAT IS TOO LENIENT...!!! What can a mere human do?!! We are haunted by evil spirits!!! Do you think that we will escape harm... by ignoring the last words of our Pantri, who could speak with the gods?!! - Page 57 - Men: Calgara!! Talk to him for us!! Calgara: ...if the village seems endangered in any way... I will leave my station to cut off his head in an instant. Even if it is not yet sunset, tomorrow evening. Chief: ...as you wish... Our Pantri is dead... and I do not have the power to hear the gods' voices. ...however... I can hear the voices of eager... earnest men. That is all. Calgara: ...hmph!! Men: Calgara! Calgara: ...Set. - Page 58 - Calgara: ...are you sure you should be awake...? Set: I'm better now... Calgara: WHAT...?! Set: Great Warrior Calgara... What does "progress" mean? Norland: Here we are. A Kona tree...!!! ...with a forest this large... it would be strange NOT to find one... - Page 59 - [Morning] Sailors: *snoring* People: Ah- It's here... IT'S HERE!! An earthquake!!! Uwaaaaaahh!!! It's the wrath of the gods!!! The curse of Kashigami-sama!!! - Page 60 - Sailors: UR... EARTHQUAKE?!! Gyaaaa!! Please, let us out of here!! People: This one's... BIGGER than usual!!! Protect the sick!!! I knew it...!!! It's his fault!!! It's because HE came here!!! Not only are we cursed by spirits... but the gods are angry with us as well! Calgara: I KNEW I SHOULDN'T HAVE LEFT HIM ALIVE!!! - Page 61 - Sailors: Look at that fissure. I hope Commodore's okay... Commodooore!! Calgara: {...it looks worse, here in the forest... The land is sinking... The island looks like it's about to split...!!} - Page 62 - Calgara: Wahahaha... a fitting end...!! It appears the gods have struck you with their steel hammer directly... Norland: ...hahh... hahh... then I guess your gods... do not amount to much... If they cannot... kill... one man... (hahh) - Page 63 - Calgara: ...you're tough, I'll give you that. Norland: ...why are you here? Calgara: To kill you. The village will not escape harm if we leave you alive, after you killed Kashigami-sama... Didn't that earthquake teach you something? Norland: Kashigami... that snake, then... ...he didn't seem too tasty. Calgara: BLASPHEMY!!! Norland: ...would you mind getting lost...? I don't want to look at you. I need... to get to the village...!!! Calgara: Sure... I'll get you there... JUST SQUEEZE YOUR WAY OUT OF THERE... - Page 64 - SBS Corner O: A game from Penname Pandkopanda-chan!!
