Special Quests/The Queen's Ascension/1-9: To the Great Shrine

Part 1/4  Wayne  [ ...I'm sorry, I'm afraid I don’t quite follow. ]

 Wayne  [ You want to serve as Queen...together? ]

 Louise  [ Your Majesty, this is absurd. Baffling. Insane! ]

 Louise  [ I'm just a mere body double. Nothing more than the Queen’s shadow. ]

 Juliana  [ I know. I know that, but listen. ]

 Juliana  [ I only became Queen because I happened to be born to the royal family. ]

 Juliana  [ All that means is that I carry the same blood as those that were royalty before me. ]

 Juliana  [ But you can’t protect a kingdom with just a bloodline. ]

 Juliana </b> [ I’m not like my father... I don’t have what it takes to keep a kingdom together. ]

 Juliana </b> [ I’ve even lost sight of what any of this means... My position, my job, my purpose... ]

 Louise </b> [ ... ]

 Juliana </b> [ You say you’re only a shadow of the Queen? So am I. ]

 Juliana </b> [ I didn’t even know what was going on, but I wanted to avenge my father... ]

 Juliana </b> [ And pushed you into the role of Queen. ]

 Louise </b> [ It’s all in the past now. But really taking the throne? That’s something else... ]

 Juliana </b> [ Well, I can’t be Queen on my own. I just don’t have what it takes. ]

 Juliana </b> [ To tell the truth, I think Einslotte would be a far better king than I ever could. ]

 Juliana </b> [ But right now, he’s in trouble, and he needs our help. ]

 Juliana </b> [ And to help him, someone needs to assume the throne and control the knights. ]

 Juliana </b> [ So please, help me, Louise. Together, I know we can do this. ]

 Louise </b> [ B-But...I’m just a handmaiden... I could never assume such responsibility... ]

 Juliana </b> [ Einslotte is about to be executed. Will you just watch and do nothing? ]

 Louise </b> [ No--never! I could never forgive myself. The Holy Capital needs men like him. ]

 Juliana </b> [ Only we can save him. To do that, we have to share the burden of the throne. ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ Only you and I together can do this. ]

<b> Louise </b> [ ...Okay. I’ll do it. I really hope I can live up to your expectations. ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ Great, that’s settled. Let’s hurry to the Great Shrine! ]

<b> Wayne </b> [ We’ll hurry to the city to delay the execution, buy you and Einslotte more time. ]

<b> Wayne </b> [ I don’t like splitting our forces, but we don’t have any other options. ]

[ Have no fear, my friends! ]

 -- A voice came from the magic communicator -- 

<b> Phoena </b> [ Gilbert! ]

<b> Gilbert </b> [ Good to see you all, especially near the Holy Capital. ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ Yes, but you already knew that, didn't you, Gilbert? ]

<b> Pirika </b> [ Wait, can they hear everything we say through this mirror? ]

<b> Gilbert </b> [ Ha ha ha! Don’t worry, it doesn't work that way. ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ We don’t have time! How the heck do we handle this situation? ]

<b> Gilbert </b> [ Oh! I sent some agents ahead of you to infiltrate the city. ]

<b> Gilbert </b> [ That’s why I'm assuming the execution may not be the top priority right now. ]

<b> Gilbert </b> [ his is the most the guild can do, though. Einslotte’s rescue is all up to you ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ Thanks, you’ve done more than enough. Captain, get me and Louise into the Shrine! ]

<b> Shrine Knight </b> [ You fools, do you know where you are?! ]

<b> Parchelle </b> [ Silence! The Holy Queen has come! Make way! Make way! ]

<b> Shrine Knight </b> [ The Holy Queen? Then we’ll definitely make sure you don’t pass! ]

<b> Parchelle </b> [ Looks like we’ll have to use force! ]

Part 2/4 <b> Juliana </b> [ The Inner Sanctum of the 17 clerics is down this way! ]

<b> Louise </b> [ Your Majesty, I’ve only heard rumors, but just who are these clerics? ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ The 17 clerics are sacred devotees who’ve vowed to shun worldly desires. ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ Deep in the recesses of the Great Shrine, they pray in the Inner Sanctum. ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ And the official royal coronation requires the blessing of the 17 clerics. ]

<b> Louise </b> [ Are you sure someone like me may enter such a sacred place? ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ It doesn’t matter. We can’t turn back now. ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ Focus on why we’re here. We must become the true Holy Queen to save Sir Einslotte. ]

<b> Louise </b> [ Y-Yes, Your Majesty! ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ And if we take back the throne...Einslotte has no choice but to obey our every word. ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ You can command him to do anything you want! ]

<b> Louise </b> [ Your Majesty... Surely you’re missing the point here. ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ You could tell Einslotte... “You are hereby ordered to marry me.” ]

<b> Louise </b> [ Juliana, you do not want me angry! ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ Sorry, your Highness, I couldn't help it. ]

<b> Shrine Knight </b> [ They’re here! Stop them! ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ They just don’t know when to quit! ]

<b> Shrine Knight </b> [ Hold it right there! ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ Yaaaah! Out of our way, fools! ]

Part 3/4 <b> Juliana </b> [ There! The door to the Inner Sanctum! ]

<b> Assassin Leader </b> [ Stop right where you are, sweetie. ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ Who are you? ]

<b> Louise </b> [ He obviously isn't in the employment of the Shrine. ]

<b> Assassin Leader </b> [ I’m the guy who finds the Holy Queen. And kills her. Nothing personal. ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ You were sent to kill...the Holy Queen? Did Minister Perinoir send you? ]

<b> Assassin Leader </b> [ Lotta questions for a dead person. ”Oh Holy One,” you and your friends are dead! ]

 [Hero]  [You picked the wrong side!] <b> Assassin Leader </b> [ Kid, you don’t know who you’re messing with! ]

[Soldiers, forward! Protect the Queen at all costs!] <b> Parchelle, Wayne and Dannady </b> [ Right away! ]

<b> Dannady </b> [ Let’s see how you fare against our shields! ]

Part 4/4 <b> Assassin Leader </b> [ Wha--? No one told me you guys were any good! ]

<b> Dannady </b> [ He sounds like he’s about to run! ]

<b> Assassin Leader </b> [ I know when I've bit off more than I can chew. I'm outta here! ]

 -- The assassin leader flees -- 

<b> Wayne </b> [ Don’t let him escape! We could use him as a witness! ]

<b> Dannady </b> [ You! Get back here! ]

 -- Dannady chases after the assassin leader -- 

<b> Wayne </b> [ Your Majesty, to the Inner Sanctum! ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ Alright! ]

<b> Shrine Knight </b> [ That’s as far as you go! ]

<b> Wayne </b> [ You again! ]

<b> Maurice </b> [ Leave him to us! ]

<b> Wayne </b> [ Thank you! Please, Holy Queen, come with us! ]

<b> Louise </b> [ Right away! ]

<b> Maurice </b> [ Your Majesty, save my brother! ]

<b> Louise </b> [ I won’t let you down! ]

<b> Louise </b> [ So this is the Inner Sanctum... ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ And there are the 17 clerics. ]

<b> Cleric </b> [ Juliana. Much time has passed since we last spoke. ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ You must know why I am here. ]

<b> Cleric </b> [ Yes. But we must honour tradition and properly carry out the ceremony. ]

<b> Cleric </b> [ That said, I ask you, Holy Queen Juliana, what brings you here? ]

<b> Juliana </b> [ I ask that you ordain Louise and myself as Holy Queen. ]
