Light and Darkness.

The final battle of the gods climaxed in a clash between

Marfa, Goddess of All Creation, and Kardis, Goddess of Destruction.

At the end of their fierce battle, the stricken goddesses

had split the continent, forming a new land.

Since then, people have come to call this new continent

"Lodoss--The Accursed Island.”

The way that you embrace me from behind

The words of your land you softly whisper to me

Romantic in a way that almost tears at my heart

I am your prisoner

lo sono prigioniera

Tonight you have gently bound me up within your arms, my love

And even if the morning sun rose upon the both of us

It wouldn't shine near as bright as your dark eyes do to me

"The Desert King"

After saving Princess Fianna from the mysterious witch, Karla,

Parn and his friends are welcomed in Valis as heroes.

Indeed, it is here that their cursed destiny truly begins.

You are here as my daughter's benefactors.

Come now, raise your heads.

No, Majesty. We cannot.

Fianna's return has allowed me to learn the war situation.

Please.

You there. What is your name, lad?

Parn, Your Majesty.

Parn.

Lord Kashue, look there!

Damned beasts!

Calm down!

Look closely!

Why... It's Prince Jester!

I pity your horses, having to run all the way to Valis.

Are you going to be flying far?

Up to the northern border! With Mycen.

I see.

When next we meet, we'll raise a cup together!

The kingdom of Moss is moving as well.

Whoa! Whoa!

Who are you?!

My name is Karla.

Karla? And what do you want with me?!

Perhaps to give you Lodoss?

What?

Whoa, now! Easy, boy.

Did something happen, M'lord?

No.

Right, let's go!

You'd never guess a war was about to start.

All to raise their morale, I'd dare say.

Parn! Deed!

I've never worn anything like this. Well?

You both look splendid.

I only wish dear Etoh here would have changed as well.

I... I couldn't! I'm a cleric, after all!

Do they really teach you to never take off your priest's robes?

Ghim.

Something wrong?

Ghim?

Never mind me. Just had a little too much to drink.

It's King Kashue!

Hey, who is he?

Kashue Arnague the First, King of Flaim.

Him?

Yeah. The mercenary king who

united the desert kingdom of Flaim with only his sword.

So, these are the famed border guards of Valis, eh?

Attack!

The Marmo!

May we soon meet again.

Under Falis' divine protection.

What's that ornament on your forehead made from?

It's so beautiful!

Oh, what a bother!

It's tiring, just laughing at nothing all the time.

I can barely move in this gown. Look!

Why do humans like these things so much?

My normal clothes are much better, right?

Right, Parn?

Parn!

Wh-What's wrong, Deed?

Never mind!

H-Hey... Wait! Deed!

Sorry, boys!

Guess today's just my lucky day!

Okay. Round they go, their fate to give the gambler either a win or a loss!

I'd better go.

Quitting while you're ahead, pal?

I just think I should get back to the dungeon.

A hardworking jailer, huh? I won't miss you, then!

Hey, say "hi" to Naba for me.

I will, while his head's still on good terms with the rest of him!

Naba?

What'd this "Naba" guy do?

Killed his superior.

It's all because he's such a mean drunk.

He got so wild that his commander tried to stop him.

Beat the poor bastard to death without even thinking about it.

Yeah.

Well, let's go!

You dirty...!

Uh-oh...

Ka... shue...

Kashue!

Guess they don't teach dancing at the monastery, either.

Isn't Kashue wonderful?

As skilled at dance as he is with the sword.

Parn!

--We're dancing! --Huh? H-Hey!

No! I...! W-Wait! I can't!

Don't worry.

I'll lead.

Just relax, and take it slowly.

S-Sure.

Kashue.

Ow... They really let me have it. Goddammit!

Kashue!

Who's...?

Easy, just relax.

Slowly, slowly.

There we go, you've got it!

Excuse us!

King Kashue!

Ah, our brave hero is so young?

I believe you came here to fight?

Y-Yes, sir!

Ghim.

Hurry! Protect King Fahn!

Kashue.

Kashue!

Parn!

Use this!

Kashue!

Ow-ow-ow-ow!

Can't Falis take it easy on me?!

Falis has other things to worry about.

Parn! Oh?

He's training.

He's been drinking in the war fever around here.

Oh...

Don't swing with your shoulders! Use the strength in your hips!

My lord Kashue.

You!

You know her?

Highness, she's the witch who tried to kidnap Princess Fianna.

What?

Did you enjoy my little diversion, my lord?

That man, you mean?

Let me help you. For the sake of all Lodoss.

For Lodoss?!

Be gone!

Very well then.

But take care that you aren't murdered in your sleep.

My great lord mercenary, Kashue.

Sh-She's gone!

Wh-What was...

He's here!

I am Prince Jester! I must see King Fahn at once!

Now then, Parn. You say their army isn't just made up of humans?

Yes, sir.

We can confirm that as well.

The northern border has fallen.

It can't be!

We'd best face the situation calmly.

At first light, we must send reinforcements.

Aye!

Then we will help make sure the Valis garrison is fully manned.

Our thanks to you.

Sire, there is another matter of concern.

Karla.

Yes, sire.

This witch, Karla, is known to the Marmo.

Her true intentions are inscrutable to us.

Karla... That same name is mentioned in the legends

of the Kingdom of Sorcery.

A legendary witch?

Whatever the case may be,

we'd do well to have someone investigate her more fully.

The sage, Wort, may know something about her.

Wort?

But who would travel that distance?

The path isn't safe by any means.

I have a suggestion, sire.

What?

For this task, I think Parn would be most suitable.

Very soon now.

The Demon Sword senses it as well! All Lodoss kneels before me!

Fahn.

Beld.

Let the wonders come to me

The Fantasia fills my heart

I shall not wander anymore, all for the love I have for you

The fairies of the wind, spread their wings out to fly

Racing at the speed of light, down through the valley of time

Our falling in love was destiny

On this night which seems to have no end

Eternity awaits you and me, now that you are here

Lay down your head upon my breast, and go to sleep, my love
