FFBE Script part 146: Light Up the Darkness
Previously...
KINGDOM OF PHARM -- LIGHT UP THE DARKNESS -- FORGOTTEN WALLS 1
(The party rushes up to Raegen, who's still laying on his back.)
Rain: Dad!
Lasswell: Sir Raegen!
Rain: Old man, you okay!?
Raegen: Yeah... I should live...
Sakura: Raegen. Where did they go?
(Raegen gets up on his knees and faces Sakura.)
Raegen: They're gone... They went after the last crystal. We've got to go after them at once. The protective ward I put over the crystal will have worn off by now.
(Rain nods.)
Rain: Then let's go.
Raegen: Rain... Lasswell...
Lasswell: What is it, sir?
Raegen: Darklord is strong. Stronger than me. Do you still think you can beat him?
Rain: We have to, don't we?
Raegen: That's right. Losing is not an option.
(Rain and Lasswell begin to leave, but come to a stop as Rain speaks.)
Rain: Then we've just go to do it.
(The two turn and give simultaneous thumbs-ups.)
Rain: As knights of Grandshelt.
Raegen: Then go! Keep the crystal safe!
Lasswell: Yes, Sir!
KINGDOM OF PHARM -- LIGHT UP THE DARKNESS -- FORGOTTEN WALLS 2
(The scene opens on the dark crystal, outside near bodies of water. Darklord walks up, carrying Lightlord.)
Veritas of the Light: We found it... The last crystal...
Veritas of the Dark: Yes. The time has finally come...
(He begins to move closer to the crystal, but turns as the party rushes up.)
Rain: Darklord!
Veritas of the Dark: So you came?
Rain: It's time. We're finally going to end this.
Veritas of the Dark(...): Why is it, I wonder? It is truly mysterious. But I cannot seem to help feeling pleased that I can fight you now, after you've grown so much. Even though you should be nothing more than a hindrance to our goals...
Rain: I know what you mean. Ha;f of this entire journey has been about beating you. There are only two people in the world I can't bear the thought of losing to. My old man... and you, Darklord.
Veritas of the Dark: I see...
Rain: I want to protect the crystal. You want to destroy it. Whichever one of us wins this battle... At least we'll both have given our all. I'll have no complaints.
(Darklord turns and puts Lightlord down near the crystal. She's strong enough now to stand.)
Veritas of the Light: Darklord...
Veritas of the Dark: Just watch. It will be fine. I will not lose. No matter who I am up against.
Veritas of the Light: I know. I believe in you.
(Rain and Lasswell prepare for battle.)
Veritas of the Dark: So come at me!
(Battle begins!)
Veritas of the Dark: Rain! Lasswell! This is all of my power! All of the power i hold within me!
Rain: How energetic is this guy. I can see how my father lost.
Lasswell: Rain, don't let yourself be overwhelmed!
Rain: Right, understood! Regardless, we're going to win! We will win! We have to protect this world, no matter what! As knights of Grandshelt!
(Battle begins in earnest now. You defeat Darklord! There is no dialogue afterward.)
KINGDOM OF PHARM -- LIGHT UP THE DARKNESS -- FORGOTTEN WALLS 3
(Darklord is kneeling. Lightlord stands next to the crystal, and the party before it.)
Rain: Darklord, it's over. We win.
Veritas of the Dark: Yes... You have bested me... I have nothing left to say...
(Lightlord walks to Darklord's side.)
Veritas of the Light: Darklord!
Veritas of the Dark: Citra, I'm sorry..... It looks like our dream dies here...
Veritas of the Light: It's okay... It'll all be okay... Just don't speak.
(Raegen walks up.)
Raegen: Rain. Lasswell. You've done well to protect the crystal.
Lasswell: Sir Raegen!
Veritas of the Dark: *cough cough* Ngh...
Veritas of the Light: Darklord, you're in pain... Let me remove your armor...
(She removes his helm, revealing his face, which is identical to Raegen's. Rain reacts with a ! over his head.)
Rain: Dad.....
Fina: There are two Raegens?
Raegen(...): So it was a vision of me, huh?
Veritas of the Light: That's right. I created it with a special power...
Sakura: And it's not just a copy of Raegen as he is now. It's a recreation of the Raegen that fought in the war against Hess. Now it makes sense. That explains why Darklord didn't know Sophia...
Veritas of the Light(...): Raegen... mock me if you must...
(She turns her back to the party.)
Veritas of the Light: I know I'm pathetic.... Going so far as to create a vision just so I could remain at your side...
Raegen(...): You're not pathetic. And I have no reason to mock you. ...I feel blessed.
(Lightlord turns to Raegen again.)
Veritas of the Light: Huh?
(Raegen walks to Lightlord.)
Raegen: Blessed that... I have someone who care about me so much.
Veritas of the Light: Raegen...
(Raegen walks to his vision, but doesn't say anything.)
Dark Fina: That's it. It's all over.
Sakura: Yes, it is.
Lid: I can't believe it! We actually won! Now the world is safe again, right!?
Rain: Yeah. We managed to save the crystal.
Lid: So... is it all right to celebrate!?
Jake: Hey Lid. How about a hug, huh?
Lid: Yeah! That sounds great! Fina! Give me a hug!
Jake: Tch.
(Lid runs to Fina and hugs her.)
Lid: Fina! We did it!
Fina: We sure did!
Rain: Come on, Lasswell. Let's go home. Grandshelt is waiting for us.
Lasswell: Indeed.
(They all turn to look at the crystal. There is a bolt of lightning. Raegen, his vision, and Lightlord react with a ! over their heads. The crystal shatters! The rest of the party now reacts with ! over their heads.)
Rain: Wha!?
Lid: Huh!? What is it!? What's happening!?
Dark Fina: This presence....!
(The scene pans up to show a winged beastman and a hooded figure approach.)
Raegen: The Eight Sages!?
Dark Fina: Th-that's.... Sol and Behemoth...
Sol: Life truly is a disgusting thing. Be gone, all of you.
(Sol casts a spell. The scene fills with light, then smoke.)
Veritas of the Light: Ahh! ...Darklord!
(When the scene reappears, Lightlord and Darklord stand alone among ruins. Darklord turns to Lightlord and falls to his knees.)
Veritas of the Dark: Lightlord.... are you all right...?
(Lightlord moves to his side.)
Veritas of the Light: No! Why would you do that!?
Veritas of the Dark: Isn't it... obvious? I still haven't... fulfilled my promise to you...
Veritas of the Light: Huh?
Veritas of the Dark: Don't... you remember?
(He stands and turns to her.)
Veritas of the Dark: We promised to travel the world together....
Veritas of the Light; Darklord...
(Then turn and react with a ! as Behemoth approaches them.)
Veritas of the Light: Ahh!
Veritas of the Dark: Lightlord... Run!!!
(Behemoth strikes at Darklord. Darklord's armor emanates a dark glow, and he disappears.)
Veritas of the Light: D-Darklord.... No... AHHH!!!!
