Wolf's Rain (2003) s01e14 Episode Script

The Fallen Keep

Kiba! Wait up, damn it! You're going too fast! Let's rest for a while.
We don't have time.
Think it through, damn it! We've got a girl and a kid with us! We can hear you, Hige.
Don't worry about me, I can keep up.
Me, too He's the one who wants to rest, that's all.
I do not! I just But there's some sense in what Hige's saying.
At this rate, none of us will make it.
Let's wait over there for the snowstorm to die down.
I guess that settles it.
Can you hang in there a little longer? You should worry about yourself.
Yes, ma'am, you're right.
Let's go.
It'll be dawn soon.
Let's rest here until then.
Let's do that, Kiba.
The snowstorm will let up by then.
It already is.
Let's go.
It'll be fine.
We won't be fine! I'm going anyway.
I can handle it.
Yeah, let's go.
Forget it! I'm staying here until morning.
I understand.
Kiba! Let him go! But All he has eyes for right now is Cheza.
Whether we're with him or not doesn't make any difference.
We'll go after him later.
For now, clear your head and rest up.
Are you really sure about this? That guy obsesses too much.
So, I take it you didn't like that scarf.
Too bad, I thought it would look good on you.
Okay, maybe not.
Lunkhead.
Cheza is She's a girl that was created from Lunar Flowers using alchemy.
And the man who created Cheza was Darcia the First.
Lord Orkham stole her and had us study her.
To awaken her and open the door to Paradise.
Paradise It's a world where wolves reign.
And Lunar Flowers are there to guide the world's remaining wolves to Paradise.
Did you know all this from the very beginning? Who did you learn it from, then?! Wait a minute! You mean at the castle we're headed to, there's A world of wolves, huh? If a place like that is Paradise, I'll head straight on down to Hell if it's all the same to you.
You were awake? It's too cold to stay drunk.
The Book of the Moon isn't just some story.
Maybe so.
But even if you're right, what can we humans do? I'll never forgive wolves.
Even if they are the ones who rule this world, I'm gonna exterminate every last one of 'em.
Lord Darcia.
Inside the keep, there is A wolf? Yes.
Now that I have lost you, my beloved, Paradise holds no meaning for me.
And yet This wolf's eye throbs.
Why? What is this feeling that threatens to overwhelm me My beloved Hamona Tell me.
What should l He is here.
This is Darcia's keep, huh? This looks like the sort of place that would be haunted.
By what? The ghosts of cursed Nobles.
Come on, don't talk about stuff like that! Still, are you sure that girl is really here? It's faint, but I smell a Lunar Flower.
Looks like he already has visitors.
Blue! It's Pops! Hey, what's gotten into you?! Let's go! Who are the Nobles, anyway? Most of the literature dealing with them was lost with the decline of civilization.
But we do know a few things.
They say that long before the world became as it is now, they extolled the virtues of civilization, using their fantastic alchemy to blaze a path to the stars, and open doors into space and time.
But all that vanished in an instant.
No one knows what happened then.
But many people disappeared, and the inner workings of alchemy came to be a secret known only to the Nobles that was not to be passed on to the people.
That was more than two hundred years ago.
And now this world is quietly passing away.
Along with the red moon.
They are here.
Cheza! Kiba! Why are you in such a rush? He's here.
Pops is here Do you really want to see this "Pops" guy? No.
It would be better if I didn't.
Maybe he's looking for you, Blue.
And what if he is? Are you gonna go back to being a dog? Hey, lay off! You don't know what it feels like, Tsume! I guess I don't.
I've never been kept as a pet by humans like you two.
Now, now, first things first.
Let's find Kiba and Cheza.
The flower scent is coming from this way.
Wolf worship, huh? It's not a simple animal cult.
I think this world has split into a world that we humans can see and a world that we lost sight of at some point.
I'm certain that the animals are aware of that.
Including wolves, huh? What brought that on? I was born allergic to dogs.
I see.
They must be off that way, then.
Allergies can come in handy.
Glad I could help.
Kiba! Cheza! Have you come for revenge, wolf? Don't hurt Cheza.
Cheza is merely an embodiment of Lunar Flowers that we created.
Why do you want Cheza so badly? I don't know who you Nobles are.
And I don't care what you people are.
Cheza is going to tell us the way to Paradise.
Wolf It all began with your kind.
What is it? Hey! You and your kind stole everything from me.
And in return, you gave me a curse.
And suffering.
And grief.
And this eye became just like yours.
All this was the price I paid for being cursed by Paradise.
And now all I am surrounded by is despair.
Don't! What is it that you want?! Have you found it? Have you found Paradise? We will.
No matter what! What is it that you expect to find in Paradise? A future.
A future? Not hope.
Not despair.
Just a future.
Nothing more.
I no longer have any need for a future.
You damn wolf! No, don't! Blue Kiba! Lord Darcia! Cheza! Kiba! CHEZA! Blue! Cheza! We need to hurry! Why? Why, Blue? Quent! Blue! Jaguara! That way! Did that wolf just talk?! Kiba! Don't go after them! Kiba! Kiba! Kiba! Kiba! Kiba! Kiba! The Fallen Keep Next Time Next Time A human life is an ephemeral thing.
A human life is an ephemeral thing.
It is a good idea to look to the past from time to time.
But perhaps my life is a trifle too long to look back and dwell upon.
And so, I bid you farewell.
Grey Wolf And so, I bid you farewell.
Grey Wolf
