[k] @d'Eon I suppose that makes sense given the name “Ys”...[sr]What in the world is going on here? [k] ?1:Do you know something, d'Eon? ?! [charaFace B 0] @d'Eon ...Yes. The tale of Ys comes from France, you see. [k] @d'Eon Perhaps you've heard it yourself, Master.[sr]It's an old legend from the Brittany region. [k] @d'Eon In brief, Ys was once the name of a city built on the coast. [k] [charaFace B 5] @d'Eon It flourished as a haven of vice and immorality, but one day, either by an act of God or the Devil, the entire city was swallowed up by the sea. [k] @d'Eon Yet even now, it remains a hotbed of sin and malice untouched since the day of its submersion... So the legend says, at least. [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [charaPut H 1] [charaTalk G] [charaFace G 5] [charaFadein G 0.1 0,-90] @Da Vinci It also says that the daughter of the ruler of Ys...was a woman by the name of Dahut. [k] @Da Vinci As its princess, she set an example for her wicked citizens by stealing all sorts of things herself. It was her plundering that formed Ys's immoral backbone! [k] ?1:But... That's just a legend...right? ?! [charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut H 1200,1200] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 0] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @d'Eon Right. There is no record of Ys or Dahut ever having truly existed. They can't actually be real... [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Dahut Why, what an odd thing to say.[sr]I'm right here, and so is Ys. [k] [charaFace E 1] @Dahut So, welcome. Welcome to my city of freedom and decadence, where everything and anything is permitted. [k] [charaFace E 6] @Dahut I trust you're enjoying your stay? [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 5] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Rider I saw plenty of your pirates cruelly abusing their “pets,” and I can't say I found it all that enjoyable. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 1] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Dahut Teehee. But now that you've seen it, surely you understand? [k] @Dahut Love. Pleasure. Violence. Inebriation. Hedonism. Gold. Silver. Beautiful fabrics. Delightful creatures. Adorable creatures. Their very lives! [k] @Dahut Here, nobody stops taking whatever it is they most desire. [k] @Dahut Surely you too must have thought that this is the happiest city in the world? [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 5] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Astolfo Happy? This city is OVERFLOWING with trash![sr]Literally AND metaphorically! [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 1] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Dahut Ah, yes, I see.[sr]You have not yet learned my city's rules. [k] @Dahut Let me tell you. There are only two. [k] [charaFace E 0] @Dahut Take whatever you want, whenever you want...and do not want what you have taken. [k] ?1:Isn't that contradictory? ?! [charaFace E 1] @Dahut Not at all.[sr]To put it another way... [k] [charaFace E 0] @Dahut You are encouraged to take whatever you want without a second thought, but not to get too attached. [k] [charaFace E 1] @Dahut That is all. [k] @Dahut Desire is supreme.[sr]You must never deny yourself what you want. [k] @Dahut What's more, not getting attached applies as much to what you've taken as to anything else. [k] @Dahut There is no point in holding on to something out of habit. Just let it go. No regrets. After all, someone else is bound to want whatever it is. [k] @Dahut In essence, my teaching is this: in each and every moment, think only of what you want, and take it. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Fergus ...That explains why this city is overflowing with hardly-used junk. [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [charaPut H 1] [charaTalk G] [charaFace G 0] [charaFadein G 0.1 0,-90] @Da Vinci Hmm. So the concept of ownership in Ys changed to align with the notion that moment-to-moment desire is the ultimate good. [k] @Da Vinci It's a positively primitive, yet remarkably complete social system. It ensures that all resources will make their way to the hands of every one of its citizens! [k] [charaFace G 5] @Da Vinci Of course, whether that's a good or bad thing depends on if you're more into hedonism or fairness. [k] [charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut H 1200,1200] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 5] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @d'Eon ...Why would you teach such things? [k] @d'Eon Rules like that will inevitably lead to a chaotic, twisted mess, just as we saw on our way here. [k] @d'Eon You don't have to take in order to get everything you want. Isn't that how a sensible, just world should be? [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Dahut Why? Why, you say?[sr]It should be obvious. [k] [charaFace E 6] @Dahut This is the only way that everyone can be happy. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaPut H 1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 7] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] @Mash ...!? [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaPut H 1200,1200] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 1] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Dahut Those who follow my rules have created a city of pure momentary pleasure. [k] @Dahut And if, in each moment, everyone has attained their true happiness by taking what it is they want... [k] @Dahut ...then in those moments, it is as if everyone is happy, right? [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 5] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Fergus So she's trying to make all of her people happy by permitting anyone to take whatever they want? [k] @Fergus I'd never considered such a way of life before... [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Dahut And as long as I remain myself, that moment will last forever. Which means that everyone's truest happiness will as well. [k] [charaFace E 1] @Dahut Ahh, this city is truly a utopia. Didn't you see for yourselves how all of my people were smiling? [k] @Dahut Nobody has to deny themselves in my city.[sr]They are free to take whatever they want. [k] @Dahut There is no need for them to be concerned with how others may feel. What could be better than that? [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 5] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Rider Yeah, your pirates were smiling all right.[sr]But they were the only ones. [k] @Rider This talk of happiness sounds nice, but it's deeply flawed. [k] @Rider What about the people you take from?[sr]The ones you treat like playthings? [k] @Rider How do you think those men feel when you rob them of their dignity...their very lives? [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 8] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Dahut ...How do I think those men feel, you ask?

[k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 6] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Dahut What a strange thing to say.[sr]Why should I care about that? [k] @Dahut I am the daughter of King Gradlon.[sr]The most beautiful, most noble princess in the world. [k] @Dahut As such, I have a right to take from those beneath me, and those I take from should be honored to have been of use to someone such as me. [k] @Dahut Surely they all understand that? [k] @Dahut Otherwise... [k] [charaFace E 1] @Dahut Why would the men I kill after bedding them shed such wonderfully lovely tears? [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 5] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Astolfo ...! [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 1] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Dahut And that is just as true for my people. [k] @Dahut In other words, all of Ys is my proxy. As such, anyone used by a citizen of Ys should be similarly grateful. [k] @Dahut What else could there possibly be to consider? [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaPut H 1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 0] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] @Mash ...Master, there's something I'm absolutely sure of now. [k] @Mash Well, I maybe shouldn't say “absolutely sure” since it's not based on hard data, but... [k] @Mash ..since I accompanied you to Okeanos, I feel I should say it anyway. [k] [charaFace F 7] @Mash That is not Francis Drake. [k] [charaFace F 0] @Mash It's true, Francis Drake was a pirate, and she took from those around her. [k] @Mash But she never once said it was right.[sr]She was completely aware of the evil of such an act. [k] @Mash Yet she had a sort of charisma and good cheer about her that let her shrug that weight off with a smile. [k] [charaFace F 7] @Mash This woman is nothing like that. She doesn't even think there IS any weight to her actions. [k] @Mash Her evil is nothing more than a habit: just some normal behavior for her. [k] @Mash And so there's no way she and Captain Drake could possibly be the same person.

[k] [charaFace D 6] @Rider The only question that I'm concerned with...is what we do about her. [k] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_63 1.5] ?1:She's not the person I know. We have to defeat her! ?!

You're wrong there.[sr]If anything, I'm in a constant state of flux. [k] @Dahut I attain happiness by sating my desires, then I cast that happiness away and begin desiring again. [k] @Dahut Taking is what allows me to ensure everyone's happiness is always shifting. It's the perfect way for us folk of the water to live our lives! [k] [charaFace E 1] @Dahut That's why I can understand why you're here. [k] @Dahut You seek this happiness for yourselves. It is what you desire, and so you're here to take it from me. [k] @Dahut But...as I always discard all that I desire, the only thing I truly possess is myself. [k] [charaFace E 6] @Dahut Which means...you desire me.[sr]You came here to propose. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 4] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Astolfo I'd tell her she's waaay off the mark, but something tells me she's not the type to listen! [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 1] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Dahut Then yes, I accept. I will always desire people with love in their hearts who seek my hand in marriage. [k] @Dahut Very well, then! Come, let us go to bed and each take our desires from the other. [k] [charaFace E 6] @Dahut ...Of course, it should go without saying that I will discard you once I am sated. [k] @Dahut That is the perfect happiness of the moment.
