Humanity has been fighting...
With enemies from far away called Festums...
Fire!
Our choices were to destroy or be destroyed.
Neither side even thought of compromising with the other.
In order for one to live on,
someone had to be the victim.
This is another story of the lives changed by this never-ending battle.
All right, it's ready.
May I please buy one?
July 8th.
It was the second graduation ceremony for this year.
Though it is sad that we are all parting ways on this day,
we will never forget any of you.
I wish you all the best of luck. Please do not forget the time that you've spent on this island.
We hope from the depths of our hearts, that you all have healthy and prosperous lives.
And with that being said, let us part.
Congratulations on your graduation.
Ryou.
That farewell speech sounded similar to what a student president would've given.
Sure did, didn't it?
I had the vice president help write the speech.
That's what I figured. You lazy bum.
This will be the last time I'll be seeing you too.
You'll be coming back occasionally, right?
Who knows.
Ever since my graduation date was set, I always felt uneasy about staying on this island.
It'll be easier on me if I just join in with the adults one step ahead of everyone.
I see.
Make sure to be honest about your feelings
while you're still in school here.
What kind of feelings are you talking about?
Like making a confession to somebody you like or anything you want.
Regretting is the worst, probably.
You don't have any regrets?
No, I don't.
I see.
Well... later, Ryou.
Goodbye!
To enter a completely different lifestyle
Let's meet again!
by the time one finishes school.
That was a scene that could only be seen at Tatsumiya Island.
He's going to lose again.
Lose what?
The usual fight between Kazuki and Kenji.
My bet is on Kenji.
Soushi, who do you want to bet on?
On the other hand, Kenji has lost the last 13 times.
I'm not interested.
Please excuse me.
They were good friends back then...
Kazuki and Soushi. They used to play together all the time when they were little, remember?
There must be a good reason why they can't play together anymore.
Hey, Yumi.
I have a favor to ask you, since you're the vice president.
What is it?
After I graduate,
can you keep him for me?
Idiot! Why don't you take him with you?!
How poor of him.
Ah, you think so, too?
Well then, I have some things to take care of.
Wait a minute, Ryou.
Hi, Masaoka-senpai.
Hey Kuramae,
please take care of the rest.
What's Masaoka-senpai thinking? Going home already...
Does he know that tomorrow's the closing ceremony?
He didn't want to say that he was going to the hospital.
Just coming here today must have been hard on him.
But, it's a fact that he's lazy.
We need to be on top of things.
Yes.
I'm fine.
I just had a light case of anemia.
What's wrong?
Hey.
Unexpectedly, you're an obliging person, aren't you?
It's just because you had this painful look on your face.
You're not going home with everybody else?
Nope...
You can't just wait for someone like Kenji to charge towards you.
You need to approach people yourself and become friends.
I probably don't have the right to be saying all this, especially since you're helping me.
Maybe...
Ah, you think so, too?
We finally made it.
Ka-Kazuki-kun...!
Hazama...
Thanks a lot.
Let's ask Toomi-sensei for a drink.
No thanks.
Umm, I... have to get going.
Well, later.
B-Bye!
You're here for a checkup, too?
I was fine until I was about to go to sleep.
I wasn't able to go to school today, either...
I was always like that in the past, too.
This is genetic, isn't it?
Masaoka-senpai, you had the same illness as you mother, right?
Yeah.
As I thought... I wonder if I'm related to my mother...
Who knows.
But I envy you, Hazama.
You have a good mother who really cares about you.
Yes.
Your symptoms have been stable recently, so I'm going to reduce the dosage of your painkillers.
That means that there's no chance of curing it, right?
There's still a chance that the symptoms might completely disappear.
About that selection I was speaking of before...
Ryou-kun, you don't have to be pessimistic about it at all.
No, that's not it. I'm relieved that I'm allowed to decide for myself.
I was really scared that I was going to die without doing a single thing.
It's already been two years since your mother passed away, hasn't it?
Yes.
Isn't it tough to be living on your own?
It's a small island, so there's always someone that will look out for me.
And it's not like I'm alone, anyway.
Hazama, you're not going back home?
Maya will be coming home soon.
I see.
I'm envious that you still have your close friends.
About half of mine graduated already.
Masaoka-senpai, you're amazing.
You can go to school regularly and on top of that, you're class president.
You've got it all wrong.
Everybody decided that on their own while I was absent.
Decided it on their own...?
That's right.
The minute I got to school, I was given that title.
I was surprised.
Didn't you hate it?
It seems like you were forced into it.
I was really happy that everybody hadn't forgotten about me.
I want to repay everyone who gave me a place to be.
That's how I felt all this time.
I envy you.
There might not be a place for me when I go to school...
Look.
You need to cherish your friends who'll stay by your side.
I'm home.
Oh, it's the Principal and Mr. Makabe.
Welcome home, Ikoma-kun.
Please excuse us.
I'll make some tea right now.
No, it's fine.
We just came for a visit.
Well then, Ikoma.
Take care of yourself.
Father. There was another graduation ceremony this morning.
Is that so?
Isn't it weird?
Having several graduation ceremonies before summer break even starts.
Is that so.
Maybe it's because it's an island with nothing to offer.
Were the graduation ceremonies just like this when you were young?
Yeah.
I wonder where I'll go once I graduate.
Solomon is responding repeatedly.
We shall come in contact with the response in approximately 700 hours.
This isn't a good time to be intercepting the enemy.
If the Core comes in contact with the enemy while it's forming its own individuality,
there's a high possibility that the enemy will seize the whole island.
So, are we going to limit the function of the defense system?
Today, we personally had a talk with Ikoma.
To be precise, all weapons in relation to Fafners are to be locked securely.
To keep the damage we receive to a minimum when the enemy does seize the Fafners,
we have no choice but to seal it ourselves.
But still, it cannot be said that the necessary precautions have been taken with just that.
So, it has been suggested by Ikoma.
Here's the program to avoid the crisis.
Plan L?
The TSXs are necessary to carry this out.
It can't be...! Are you suggesting that the children participate in this?!
We need approval from everyone that manages this island.
Later!
Bye bye!
See you again!
Kazuki!
I will definitely beat you today!
So don't even think about running!
All right.
How are you feeling?
I'm fine.
Umm, Father...
I'm going to go out with my friend for a bit tomorrow.
Is that so.
I was invited by my friend to go to the beach tomorrow.
I'll come home early, okay?
I just remembered how we never had a problem finding a place to play when we were young,
even though we're on a small island like this.
You're not going to swim when you're the one who invited me?
After seeing your swimming, I lost my confidence.
You've been going to Toomi-sensei's place a lot, haven't you?
Yeah.
How's your health?
It's nothing, really.
It's just a bit inconvenient at times.
I think I can understand the pain of what those people go through.
I've always been living with my father so I'm used to taking care of him.
Now that my body's warmed up, I guess I'll go for a swim.
Are you sure it's okay?
I'm fine. I'm fine...
But...!
I never thought I needed taking care of.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings.
Today was fun, for a change.
It was so fun that...
I was able to forget about my father for once...
Father!
Where are you?!
Father...!
Father!
Why...?
Father...
What is it?
What do you want to tell me?
I need to...
go to Alvis...
To Alvis...
Father...
Hey, Father...
Father!
Yumi...
Soushi-kun.
Your father often came to visit my father.
Yes. I was told that he was given work-related advice by your father.
Do you know what Alvis is?
No.
I see.
That's Father's...
Plan... L...?
Plan L...
Fafner...
Titan model...
Alvis...!
Father's voice...?
What is this? Are you there... father?
What? What are you saying?
What?
Alvis...
Entrance...
Recognition of level 3 restriction code confirmed.
I know this place...
What is...
...this?
They're Fafners.
Ryou...
Why are you guys here...?
TSX.
TSX...?
Fafner...
Fafner Titan model.
Our only hope.
Congratulations on your graduation, Yumi.
I'm completely lost...
Father's voice has been resonating inside my head this whole time.
Information that you memorized becomes recognized as a voice.
In my case, it was my mother.
Memorized...?
Various information that had been implanted subliminally when we were very young.
The world's current condition, the existence of Alvis within the island,
and a way to fight against the enemy.
The enemy?
So, the ones who find out about Alvis have been graduating?
Once they find out about it, they can't return to their normal life.
That's why they chose to fight along with the adults.
Why didn't you choose to leave the island?
I've been waiting...
For the execution of Plan L that your father formulated in order to save the island.
I didn't know about it.
About my father also... Nothing at all...
I think my father called me to Alvis because he wanted me to participate in that plan.
That's not it. You don't have a clue about anything at all yet.
And you're saying that you knew about all this all along?!
I'm going home...
I'll take you home.
No thanks.
I don't want to be with you.
Yumi...
There's a part of me that believes if I hadn't gone out with you,
my father wouldn't have ended up like that.
I see.
Here are your orders.
Are you going no matter what?
Yes.
I can finally repay everyone who gave me a place where I belonged.
Are you willing to set foot on the same path your father took?
Please let me.
And so, the selected members were gathered.
The best-suited individuals who had undergone
subconscious memorization with a high Synergetic Code ratio.
Yumi...!
My name is Hino Megumi, and I'll be in charge of your training starting today.
If anyone wishes to cancel their participation from the plan, they may tell me at any time.
Understood?
Well then, let me explain the details of Plan L.
Here's a full view of Alvis.
Currently, the enemy is in the midst of searching for this island's existence.
And the main purpose of Plan L is to prevent that.
This letter L signifies the L block of Alvis' left wing.
We will detach this from the island, and use it as an L boat.
The L boat will continue to travel along the depths of the sea outside of the enemy's detection range,
and will surface once it's out of the island's defense range.
As it attracts the enemies, it will continue to travel along an established route.
The duration is two months.
Our objective is to make the enemies believe that the L boat is Tatsumiya Island
and continue to take the enemies down.
This L boat will be on autopilot.
We will never know our current location.
It will be a rigorous fight.
Exit the room if any of you want to cancel your participation.
Well then, we'll immediately begin the training.
The Fafner's first characteristic is that there's no need for you to pilot it.
Just obey the information that you have memorized, unify with the Fafner, and accept the transition in the mind.
This is virtual reality used for training. Please move as freely as you wish.
Woah. This is...
So this is... a Fafner...
This is great!
I'm able to run!
This fast!
I'm not running out of breath at all!
What is this...
This isn't myself at all!
Father...
The second characteristic is the crossing enabled through the use of a system implemented in each unit.
With this, you'll be able to share your thoughts with each other and prevent the enemy from reading them.
Please accept your partner.
A partner?
Ryou... How...?
It must be the crossing...
I object! Please change my partner!
This was done to maintain a balance.
You will soon understand why he's your partner.
What do you mean by understand...?
What's this feeling?
Yumi, are you afraid?
Are these Ryou's senses?
Are you enjoying this?
With this, even I can swim!
That's the end of your time limit.
Please step out of the cockpit.
Fafner's third characteristic is the pilot's risk of going through an assimilation phenomenon.
The more and more you pilot it, the more signs of abnormality will appear in your body.
In the worst case scenario, it'll cost you your life.
Go cancel your participation, Yumi.
You're not suited for it.
I will definitely make the plan a success for my father.
Why doesn't a person like you, who has no belief in a safe return to begin with, cancel his participation?!
There were total of eight selected members, and none of them canceled their participation.
There were four Fafner units in all.
One unit was shared between two pilots.
The max time limit for each battle was set to fifteen minutes per unit.
With two pilots being shifted in and out, each pilot fought for a total of 450 seconds.
The repetitious combat training... And then the recognition of the enemy.
Silicon-based life forms called Festums; they are our enemies.
They have a collective consciousness and are suited for various environments,
though none have been found in the ocean as of yet.
The speculation behind it is that they assimilate the crystals found in the sea and form into a disorderly mass.
Those were the preparations for our graduation.
There was also another important thing I had to take care of.
Here, Puku.
It tastes good.
He doesn't eat anything besides what I feed him.
He must be able to tell that he's going to be left behind.
It wasn't possible for me to bring a dog along.
As his owner, I was told to take responsibility.
A long time ago, my mother brought him home saying he would be my new friend.
Even on the days I couldn't go to school, I wasn't lonely as long as I was with him.
No you can't!
You were about to eat it knowing what it was, weren't you?!
Idiot...
Good boy.
You're obediently waiting for Senpai, aren't you?
As a reward, I'll give you a small share of their snacks.
So it's the rumored new Fafner model, huh?
Yes.
We will do our best to have it prepared by the end of the plan in two months.
That means if we're still alive, you'll come pick us up, right?
Most certainly.
Masaoka-senpai, it seems like he's hungry.
He's eating it...
Oh, and these are his personal belongings. It might be a little heavy.
Oh, I'm fine. Thank you for your concern.
Please take good care of him.
Yes. I will take care of him as if it's you.
Umm, it's nothing. I'll get along with him. Isn't that right?
And right when the last of my preparations were complete,
I began to remember Yumi's words for some odd reason.
"Why doesn't a person like you, who has no belief in a safe return to begin with, cancel his participation."
That's what Yumi told me.
Yumi was probably the one who was correct.
And that's what I believed.
Camouflage mirrors, sustained in roaming mode.
Close all dividing compartments in the linked sectors in emergency mode.
Closure of all dividing compartments confirmed. Opening flooding bays.
Flooding in the linked sectors confirmed.
L boat bridge to CDC, no abnormalities in the link program.
Flooding complete.
L boat, preparations for launch complete.
Preparations to detach L block are complete.
Detach it!
L boat initiated operation off of the control program.
Heading outside of the Welle Shield's range.
We'll meet them again in two months from now.
Let's pray for their fortune.
Time schedule activated. Operation commenced.
What's that?
The duration until the plan is completed.
September 2nd, Plan L has commenced.
L stands for left, which has left.
In summation, it means that we have departed.
Just as those words say, we parted our ways from the island.
Three days after our departure, our island surfaced.
From today on, this is Tatsumiya Island.
The enemy has materialized.
It's a Sphinx-form.
Divert them with conventional weapons. Fafners, prepare to sortie.
Power lines 1 to 85,
Siegfried System, link activated.
currently recharging the Fafners through their transfer input ports.
Cockpit block, nominal.
Pilot data, currently being transmitted.
Currently linking.
Releasing all lines.
Green lights confirmed.
Weapon locks, removed.
Nibelung System, code confirmed.
Siegfried System, linkage complete.
Gradual incremental block, in operation.
Hatch opened.
Elevating the movement rails. Linking.
All set!
Input of terrain data, modification data, and vital data complete.
The first time we saw the enemy, it was more beautiful than we ever imagined.
Yumi, let's destroy it.
Damn you!
We did it! We defeated the enemy!
Everyone was in good spirits after we've defeated the enemy for the first time.
They were trying to erase their fear with happiness.
It was too late for us to back out of it.
It's smaller than I thought it would be.
It's because the Siegfried System isn't implanted in there.
Are you guys ready?
Yes.
Any time.
Mark Ein, stop operation.
As I thought, it's a crucial weakness in unifying with a Fafner.
One more time. Let me try it one more time.
As I thought.
It's not moving!
It's not responding!
The pilot must be unconscious...!
Pilot of Unit 3, follow me immediately!
Change of shifts!
Yes, sir!
An enemy came once every two days...
And then somebody vanished.
It happened after our sixth battle.
The more and more one pilots a Fafner, the more the pilot's body crystalizes.
The assimilation phenomenon.
After our eighth battle, another pilot collapsed.
I was scared...
Not our enemies, but instead, I was scared of the Fafners that were supposedly our weapons.
In order to prevent the exhaustion of the pilots,
I believe that our combat length needs to be shortened from 15 to 10 minutes.
As a result, the number of sorties will increase.
We won't have enough ammunition to divert the enemies at the start of a battle to be doing that.
Conversely, what we should be doing is increasing the combat duration.
You've got to be kidding!
Ikoma-kun.
Have you been informed of the details of this plan from your father?
No, sir.
I haven't been informed of the escape method at the end of the plan.
Even if there isn't an escape method,
I am prepared.
M-My father
had no intent of sacrificing us all...
Yumi's father wasn't an idiot.
There's no way that he would formulate a plan where we would become unable to fight so quickly.
I also believe that we need to shorten the combat length to 10 minutes and prevent the exhaustion of the pilots.
Are you telling me to believe in the planner rather than the situation we're currently in?
Yumi's father was planning to participate in this plan, too.
I think he planned to go back home safely.
So, are you telling me that a person with an illness in his final hours
was planning to supervise?
Yes, sir.
It wasn't a lie.
Before I knew it, I was also believing in it.
I didn't know the reason.
It's just that I believe that I would've tried to live harder than before
if my illness had seriously gotten worse.
Are you on look-out by yourself?
I'm just being lazy.
Are you in pain?
Just a little.
Oh, were you worrying about me?
A little.
Although, I feel that I'll get scolded by you again if I worry too much.
Back then, I was scared because you brought up my health.
About yesterday, thanks...
...for covering up for my father.
It's not that I was covering up for him.
More importantly, I'm sorry.
About your father...
I was the one who believed that I didn't care about returning back alive.
I understood that.
That you always wanted to die.
I felt the same thing in you, just as I did in my father.
I didn't want you to be like him.
Hey! Come to the lobby now!
This is...
A sector that has been locked all this time has been released automatically.
Those are our supplies.
Why did they do a thing like that?
The enemy has been reading our thoughts, and attacking according to the amount of weapons we carried.
Deceive your allies before you deceive your enemies, huh?
That's right.
We're given something at a fixed interval.
And in the end, what'll be opened is...
...a method to escape.
Yeah. There's no mistake about that.
Your father is as amazing as I thought.
What he wanted was a place to live.
Definitely not a place to die.
I agree.
I'll select somebody else for the pilot.
I want you to operate the Siegfried System, Soushi.
Are you telling me to send my comrades into the battlefield instead of fighting at the front myself?!
That is your aptitude.
Father, how many people do you think will survive this plan?
The survival rate that Ikoma presented was extremely low.
And yet, you approved of the plan?!
And you're telling me to do the same thing as you've done?! Sacrifice people in order to protect the island?!
Ikoma planned to make it out alive until the end.
That is why I approved it.
I believe in the survival of every one of them.
The will of the people who wish to live no matter how harsh the situation is.
Will I be able to carry this burden, Tsubaki?
Our battles continued to increase in their intensity.
Yumi!
Move!
On that day, one of the four Fafners that we had became unusable.
The number of the pilots decreased,
and the symptoms of the assimilation phenomenon in its early stages started to appear in the ones who were still able to fight.
And finally... some of the pilots started vanishing.
Yukihiro!
And that was the assimilation phenomenon's final symptom...
One by one, our friends started disappearing before our eyes.
Idiot!
Why did you write something as stupid as that?! Tell me!
Why did you?!
Please stop!
Please...
stop it already...
Everybody was full of despair, anger, and sorrow.
There were less than two weeks remaining.
And on that day, we lost another Fafner and pilot.
The symptoms of the assimilation phenomenon in its early stages, huh.
Yes.
Although I'm able to hide it from everybody with this.
I heard that you've successfully operated it for a third time.
Yes, but it's kind of pathetic that the side effects are showing up from just that.
Masaoka-senpai and the others must be suffering a lot more than I am.
Everybody appears to be peaceful.
So much that I want to let them know the situation that our friends are in.
That would completely nullify what our friends are fighting for.
I wonder if it's right for us to be safe while the others are being sacrificed.
We have no choice but to hope that it's right.
Minashiro-kun, is it true that you finally decided
to operate the system?
Yeah.
All that remained were two Fafner units,
three pilots,
and the eight adults.
It's an escape sub!
Who would've thought that there would be a passage here.
So this must be the escape method.
Enemy alert!
I'll head out!
Yumi!
Did you see that submarine?
It can hold up to 40 people.
Your father was thinking about everyone's survival.
Ryou...
We made it this far.
We have to make it through, no matter what.
Flood blocks 9 to 17.
Opening dividing compartments 1, 2, and 3.
Escape phase, confirmed.
L boat, Fenrir initiated.
Did they plan to take the Festums down along with this island?!
Yumi!
Ryou!
L boat, 5 seconds left until Fenrir is released...
4...
3...
2...
1...
Responses confirmed within our defense limits.
It's the submarine
and the Titan models.
Standby for a sortie, Soushi!
Fafner Mark Zwei, launch!
Festum at 12 o'clock, right in front of us!
Ready the torpedoes and all missiles!
Enemy also confirmed at Green 25! No...! We're surrounded!
Where are the Fafners?
Approximately 20 kilometers from here.
They won't make it in time!
Since when were they able to go in the sea...
The submarine has sunk!
What did you say?!
The island should be in that direction!
Let's go!
No, you can't, Yumi!
You can't go...
But they already found out that Tatsumiya Island is in that direction!
That's not true.
As long as we aren't 100% sure, you can't think like that!
We've stayed alive this long, too...
I want to go back...
I want to go back to the island!
Our situation has already changed!
We cannot be the ones who let everyone's efforts go to waste!
Let's go.
Before somebody comes to pick us up.
Titan models have started making their move.
They're moving away from the island.
Soushi, stop the Mark Zwei.
There's a possibility that the worst case scenario might have occurred.
But...!
We must not endanger the whole island, Soushi.
Mark Zwei, please stop.
What's going on?
Weren't we going to pick them up?
Stay on standby at that spot, Mark Zwei.
The situation has changed.
What the hell is with that?!
We're going to pick them up, aren't we?!
Stay on standby as ordered.
No way! I'm definitely not going to!
Lock the Mark Zwei's controls.
Please let me go, Minashiro-kun!
I'm begging you!
Minashiro-kun! You can hear me, can't you?! Why aren't you answering me?!
Please, Minashiro-kun, let me go!
Minashiro-kun!
CDC, the ones that are there are units and pilots with actual fighting experience.
If we recover their data, our strength will improve greatly,
and we can use it to resist against enemy invasions.
Soushi...
Are we going to overlook this great opportunity in gaining the strength to be able to defeat our enemy?!
Then what are these Fafners for?!
Go ahead.
Under one condition. I will not allow you to take the Fafner out of our defense limits.
Thank you very much, Father.
Mark Zwei, reorganize the unit.
And... pursue the targets at full speed!
Roger.
Measure all oscillations detected in the area around the targets.
Yes, sir.
Only time will tell us the answer.
Data on the tidal currents has been gathered.
If we're lucky, what's left will reach the island from here.
Ryou...
Yeah?
Thank you for stopping me.
Hey, Yumi.
What is it?
I love you.
No, I've loved you...
Probably for a long time now.
I'm not sure if I love you or not.
I went past that part of my life before I was aware of it.
I see.
Everything we did up till today...
...will reach everybody on the island, right?
Yeah.
I wonder if Father would have praised me...
Snow?
In the depths of the ocean?
Marine snow...
Everybody...
Everybody must be praising us.
Ryou...
I'm glad that you're the one who's by my side right now.
That's how I truly feel right now.
I see.
I wonder if this means that I love you...
But I feel something more than that from this.
Because you were by my side,
I was--
Yumi...
Hey... Yumi...
You're not there anymore, are you, Yumi?
And that is all.
That was our fight.
I pray that somebody will hear this someday.
The reason you couldn't go in the ocean was because
you weren't able to renew yourselves and end up crystalizing.
But renewing yourselves
means that your body's being born again, right?
And you guys have gained that ability as well.
That also means
that you also have lives, right?
Fenrir released.
Confirmed the exact location in the abyss.
It is believed
Fenrir was utilized in the depths of the sea.
There is only one answer.
There was a concern that the units were to be assimilated by the enemy.
This was a message to us that the Festums were also in the depths of the ocean.
Mark Zwei, return to base.
Nobody is there anymore.
This was found when it came in contact with the First Welle Shield's tidal current sensor.
With its vital data.
Does that mean that...
Yeah.
The pilot utilized Fenrir after analyzing the currents.
It's proof that the pilot was calm until the end.
I wonder who was piloting it...
From the investigation,
it seems that there was a voice recording left behind.
Wait a minute! What's wrong Puku?
Could it be that...
And that is all.
That was our fight.
I pray that somebody will hear this someday.
Puku...
As you've hinted, the one who was in here was Masaoka-senpai.
He was probably with Yumi-senpai until the end.
Good boy...
You went straight to Masaoka-senpai's side...
Didn't you...?
I'm going to return ahead of everyone. I want to take him back to Tatsumiya Island.
Solomon is showing signs of a response.
It'll be tough, but it's expected that we'll be intercepting them at Alvis.
It was only peaceful for half a year.
Does this mean that the battles our friends went through only had a small significance?
We are constantly living in a peaceful world that somebody else won for us.
Even if it were only a day of peace,
I will be grateful for its value.
You're right.
I'll be waiting...
...for the time when we'll be able to fight together.
That is how peace and war has been passed down.
Their will to live.
The pain of the ones who fight at the front.
Will I be able to carry this burden?
I continued asking that same question to myself over and over.
That answer is somewhere inside the upcoming battles.
Within our battles...
