3 3 301 DialogEnable Rosetta jumps onto the narwhal and gently carries Pfaff back to the boat. Only then did she realize that part of Pfaff's body is beginning to rot.

5 5 301 1 Rosetta How'd this happen! But you didn't get hurt, Grandpa... 1

9 9 301 Rosetta has heard of the Punishing Virus from Pfaff not long after setting out to sea. It is a terrible virus that had ravaged the world at the height of the Golden Age.
10 10 301 The horrific virus had spread everywhere except high altitude areas like the Arctic. Only a special serum can mitigate the effects of the virus.

12 12 301 1 Rosetta So, Grandpa, the thing you said I had to inject everyday... That's the serum?! 1
13 13 202 1
14 14 301 Rosetta searches Pfaff for a shot of the serum in a panic, but Pfaff gently grabs her hand and shakes his head.
15 15 201 1 500200 9
16 16 301 1 Pfaff Don't bother looking... I've run out of mine... for quite some time now... 1
17 17 202 1
18 18 301 Rosetta checks the boat. There is only enough serum left for one person to make the voyage back.

21 21 301 1 Rosetta Why...? Why didn't we go back when you knew it's not going to be enough?! 1
22 22 301 Pfaff I have to kill the narwhal, no matter what—even if it kills me. 2
23 23 204 1 5
24 24 301 Rosetta But why?! I don't understand... 1
25 25 301 Pfaff Because Grandpa has sinned. Far more than the Forest Guards... So there's no need to feel any regret. 2
26 2501 204 1
27 26 301 Rosetta But Grandpa, you've never done anything bad. How could you be a sinner? They must've made a mistake! 1
28 27 301 Pfaff Rosetta, listen to me. Killing the narwhal is our only chance to be allowed into the ARU. 2
29 28 301 Rosetta If that's the case, then I don't wanna join 'em! Weren't we doing okay just living in the forest? 1
30 29 301 Pfaff For me, it is, but not for you. I can't allow you to be stuck there your whole life. You need friends... You need a future... 2

33 32 301 1 Rosetta becomes quiet. She has friends in the port. If she could live a life like an ordinary girl... 1
34 33 301 Pfaff shoves the high-voltage harpoon into Rosetta's hand. He points it at the narwhal's eye and nods. 1
35 34 201 1 500200 9
36 35 301 1 Pfaff Kill the narwhal while you have the chance. Take the core of its electronic brain back to the port manager. He'll know what it is. 1
37 36 202 1
38 37 301 Rosetta takes the harpoon. She shambles absently toward the narwhal, staring into its eyes.
39 38 301 The narwhal is tranquil as if it has accepted its fate. They both stare silently into each other's eyes.
40 39 201 1 500200 9
41 40 301 1 Pfaff (Once you kill it, Rosetta, you'll be free...) 1
42 41 301 AniZhuanchangBegin Pfaff (You'll no longer have to bear this sin that never was yours. You'll finally get to be a normal girl. You'll get to live without any regrets.) 1
46 44 301 AniZhuanchangEnd But Rosetta shakes her head instead. She throws the harpoon into the sea and kneels beside the narwhal.
47 45 301 Rosetta If you are the Guardian Spirit of humanity, please listen to my only prayer...
48 46 301 The young maiden can no longer hold back her tears.
49 47 301 Rosetta Please, save my grandpa... Please... I beg of you...
50 48 301 Only with the speed of the narwhal, can the two of them make it back to New Murmansk with the serum they have left.
51 49 301 Pfaff Rosetta, give up... It's not a guardian spirit at all. It won't respond to you.
52 50 301 Pfaff We created it... It's just a cold and heartless machine. It's an irrevocable proof of our sin in a foolish age.
53 51 301 Rosetta But it chose to protect humanity rather than fight. It's our friend, not a cold-hearted weapon.
54 52 301 AniZhuanchangBegin The eyes of the narwhal flicker. It lets out a bellowing roar. Toiling visibly, it makes a hard turn and begins dragging their boat to the north.
