The Night Lords III. The Island of Her Darling Children

1
I listen to a boring song
as I stare out the window
Let me don a dress and dance for you
Am I insane? Please tell me
Someday, the wind will take me away
And now we can't remember it
Why don't I have wings to float in the sky,
like the wind, like the clouds?
Why don't I have wings to sink
into the all-enveloping night,
like the stars, like the moon? Ahh
Esther
Your Lordship
Esther! Thank goodness!
How did l-
That enemy-!
You shouldn't move yet.
Where are we? What happened afterward?
She tended to your wounds,
and even provided this room.
Thanks to her, things ended quietly.
"Her"?
It's nice to be all lovey-dovey,
but love between Methuselah’s
and Terrans is taboo!
Hey, you! Be quiet!
Aren't you the tea-seller?!
I only sell tea on the side!
Keep this a secret, okay?
I'm Seth. I'm actually a doctor
attending an advanced medical institute!
Umm How long was I asleep?
About a whole day, I guess?
I guess coming to an unfamiliar land
really exhausted you.
Sorry. I accidentally told her
you're from the Outer World
I haven't revealed your identity,
of course.
I said you're just an outsider
who's visiting for the very first time.
Sheesh! Already like that,
the instant she wakes up?
Esther! I'm going to go buy
some medicine at the market now!
Plus you'll need a bandage change! Later!
Seth-chan!
Don't think you can do stuff
just 'cause you got her all alone!
Esther is injured, you know!
As if I would ever-
Well, I'm off!
Esther Does your injury hurt anymore?
No.
I see
Esther! Want to see the view outside?
Yes!
They think that they'll see flowers
if only they give water
But the harvest season's over
the time has past
Here in the dark I'm sitting'
The answer that soon I'm getting'
How do I know where it comes from?
Just want to feel safe with you
Now let me hear your voice
just for once
'Cause you've mixed all my bits
You've grabbed all my soul
You've taken everything over
Now let me hear your voice
just for once
You know you can make me smile
You can make me cry
and take me out
from these nights of longing
It's so beautiful
What are the buildings on that mountain?
Oh, that's Sarai.
The palace where the New Human Empire's
mother and empress lives.
All of that?!
Her Majesty is the
very embodiment of the mpire.
Terrans, Methuselah’s, and all
of the Empire follow her lead.
Education isn't limited by birth or wealth,
as it is in the Outer World.
Terrans and Methuselah’s are
all equal before Her Majesty.
Equal
The two races coexist before
Her Majesty's absoluteness.
That is why the Empire is
so prosperous and peaceful.
But what if something ever
happened to the empress?
If anything ever happened
it would spell the end of everything.
Esther! Are you hungry?
You haven't eaten for an entire day
Oh, now that you mention it
Let us go buy something to eat!
Where could that Seth girl
have wandered off to?! Honestly!
Who's there?!
Looks like you've
completely recovered, Ion.
R-Radu?!
Nice to see you again, Ion.
Impossible You're supposed to be dead!
Dead? Don't be silly. Then how
could I possibly be standing here?
Have you set me up yet again?!
You've already killed my grandmother
and framed me for it
Is that how much you hate me?!
Don't flatter yourself. I couldn't
care less about a spoiled kid like you.
You're simply a diversion
to lure away the palace's eyes.
What?!
Let me fill you in on a little secret.
We're going to kill the empress.
What did you say?!
You're going to kill Her Majesty?!
Do you seriously think you
can do anything that absurd?!
Is killing the empress really that absurd?
We're going to destroy those
detestable Outer Terrans
and become the rulers of this planet.
I won't let anyone stop us
from attaining our rightful place.
No, not even you, Ion!
All eyes at the palace
are on you at the moment.
I thank you, tovaras.
Damn you
Are you that concerned for Esther?
Looks like I guessed right.
But are you sure it's wise, Ion?
She's not only a Terran,
but a member of the Vatican.
So what if she is?!
My point is, do you really
want to be betrayed yet again?
How do you think I predict
every single move you make?
Are you saying Esther is
betraying me?! What rubbish!
She's been hiding something
very important from you, you know.
Her family was murdered by a Methuselah.
Her family was murdered?
Ah. I guess you really
didn't know, tovaras.
That can't be
How odd that she never told you
about something so important
Who knows, maybe she harbors
a grudge against you, too.
Or perhaps-
He got away!
Your Lordship! Are you all right?!
Watch Esther! She's in the backroom
of the building on that hill!
Understood!
Are you all right, Count?
You've been seriously wounded
This is nothing at all.
It will quickly heal.
But how did you find me?
An odd message was thrown my way
as I returned from the palace.
Thrown? By whom?
No idea.
What's wrong?
They and Radu
plan to kill Her Majesty!
What?!
Esther-san! Esther-san! Say something!
Father
Are you all right, Esther-san?!
Don't worry, the count is all right!
There was another girl here, named Seth!
W-what is this?
This light is a mausoleuma grave-
for all Methuselah’s.
This island is a place
for remembering the deceased.
Friends and family of the departed
gather and reminisce for a night.
That is how funerals are in the Empire.
It must be difficult for him
Being unable to attend
his grandmother's funeral
Your Lordship
Whew, security sure has gotten tight!
What a pain!
Duchess! Do you know where Radu is?!
No idea.
But if he's going to target Her Majesty,
it would most likely be
during tonight's funeral
He will come! There's no question about it!
I'll go do my rounds again.
Don't worry! I won't
let him assassinate anyone!
Esther!
Yes?!
The count is in your hands.
I'm coming with you!
No!
You're the murderer the
whole empire is out looking for!
Well, then. I will go
and prepare your dinner now.
The count was really depressed.
Do you suppose he feels responsible?
Is this really a good idea?
Is what?
Well, the count, he most
likely thinks of her as-
Yes, he seems to like her!
And you don't care?!
Is there something wrong with that?
Asta-san!
Hold on! Wait for me!
I should've minded my own business!
Your Lordship?
Where are you going?
To find Radu.
You mustn't!
Out of my way, Terran!
Why are you so adamant?!
Eh?
Is there something wrong with me
finding Radu and keeping him
from assassinating Her Majesty?!
Your Lordship!
Are you suggesting I want
the empress to be assassinated?!
I'm just
I'm just some deplorable,
blood-starved monster to you, anyway!
That's not true! I've never
once thought of you as a monster!
Then why didn't you tell me
about your family?!
I hear your family was
murdered by a Methuselah.
And that you dirtied your own hands
exacting revenge on him!
It's not like that! That was-
That was
Back then, I
So it's true
Your Lordship
Your Lordship!
Your Lordship!
How did things turn out this way?
Your Lordship!
Your Lordship!
What do I do?
Your Lordship!
Your Lordship!
Is that-
Your-
What a dilemma. I never expected you
to come all the way out here
Stay quiet, okay? I'll let go.
Seth-chan! What on earth are you doing,
dressed like that?!
Shh!
This is the Moldova family mausoleum.
The Duchess of Moldova's funeral
is about to take place.
In the presence of the empress.
Are we ready, Baron of Luxor?
Everything is set.
It's enough to take out
the entire mausoleum itself.
We just need to retile it now.
The time has finally come
Tonight, we will be freed from her spell!
Her rule has been disastorous for the empire
Her desire for peace has held us back
Only domination and subordination
exists between us and Terrans.
Coexistence is but a fantasy.
We must take back the future of our race.
Even if that means-
Who's there?!
Run!
Those moves Are you one of us?!
Seth-chan!
I'll be fine! Just hurry
and tell the Duchess of Kiev!
R-right!
Impertinent girl!
Will Seth-chan be all right?
So long, girl.
Hurry to the port. Make the final
arrangements before pests arrive.
As you wish.
I know this will not remain forever
However, it's beautiful
Your eyes, hands, and your warm smile
They're my treasure
It's hard to forget
I wish there was a solution
Don't spend your time in confusion
I'll turn back now and spread
My broken wings still strong enough
to cross the ocean with
My broken wing show far should I go
drifting in the wind
Higher and higher in the light
(My broken wings)
Still strong enough
to cross the ocean with
My broken wing show far should I go
drifting in the wind
Across the sky, just keep on flying
(What's falling from the sky is not rain )
