RECORD OF LODOSS WAR
EPISODE #10
"THE EVIL DRAGON OF MT FIRE DRAGON"

	Narrator	
The war between the gods of light and darkness reached a climax in 
which the mother goddess of the earth, Marfa, and the malevolent goddess, 
Kardis, battled to the end.
After the fierce battle, the two goddesses perished like a flame flickering 
away on the newly created land which was separated by the battle.
This land was later named by the people as the cursed island, "Lodoss."

(episode title)

	Narrator
Mt Fire Dragon is where the evil fire dragon, Shooting Star, dwells.
Pan, in order to prevent more disaster to the people, joined Kashue in the 
dragon hunt there.

	Lookout 1
I wonder if it's gonna rain?

	Lookout 2
I hope so.

<Shooting Star comes though>

	Lookout 3
Wha'?
<He sees Shooting Star>

	Lookout 4
There it is.

	Lookout 5
It's coming.

	Lookout 6
Fire

<Shooting Star breathes fire on all of lookouts>

	Kashue
What were the lookout doing?

	Orson
It's coming.

<Shooting Star breathes and kills more>

	Pan
<He sees a man get fried>
Damn it

	Deid
Pan

	Kashue
Wait. It's too dangerous to go out now.

	Pan
<He puts his hand on the lever>
It's now or never
<He pulls it>

	Deid
Pan
Pan

AT MT FIRE DRAGON

	Pirotase
Please wait.
The objective must be the Sceptre of Domination.

	Ashram
If we defeat the ancient dragon, it will be in our hands.

	Pirotase
You can't be serious.

	Ashram
This sword is calling for its blood.

	Pirotase
In that case, it's more important that you obtain the Sceptre of Domination 
first.

	Ashram
You doubt my ability?

	Pirotase
But...

	Ashram
Move out of my way.

	Pirotase
Only foolish humans and goblins use futile power.

	Ashram
Futile?

	Pirotase
You cannot make light of an ancient dragon.

	Ashram
A small cut can become a fatal wound. Never forget that if you want to live 
as a Marmo.

AT CAMPSITE FOR OUR HEROES

	Deid
Pan
Wha'?

	Sheris
Recklessness devastates virtue.
Well, that may be your good point. Or, I can't stop thinking that your way of 
doing things is amusing.
It's as if it only thinks of us as mere worms.

	Deid
Even worms have a life.
A human life, a worm's life: there's no difference in "life."

	Pan
Deid

AT FALALIS TEMPLE

	Vagnard
The High Elf escaped?

	Dark Elf
I'm sorry.

	Vagnard
What happened to Pirotase?

	Dark Elf
Ah, about that...

	Vagnard
Mt Fire Dragon. Hmph, although is called a Dark Elf, she's still a woman, and 
you came back shamelessly, didn't you?

	Dark Elf
Wha'?

	Vagnard
<spell> The almighty mana, destruction in the form of fire,...Baylos. The 
almighty mana, destruction in the form of fire,...Baylos.

	Dark Elf
<said within the second time of spell>
Master Vagnard

	Vagnard
So, I'll get the Sceptre of Domination before I get the High Elf.

AT THE CAMPSITE

	Pan
"The Path of the Dragon?"

	Orson
It sounds like an old legend.

	Shadam
Yes, it's the "Legend of the Dragonslayer" which has been passed down from 
Flaim's past. At the end of the path is the castle of the dragon.

	Sheris
Of course. It means that we surround Shining Star by the back route, right, 
Shadam?

	Shadam
Exactly. Long ago, there were many young people who dreamt of the 
Dragonslayer.

	Kashue
Then there was none who returned.

	Orson
So, it's a gamble?

	Kashue
That's right. Unfortunately I can't think of another way. What do you think?

	Deid
It's too dangerous.

	Kashue
I agree that it's dangerous but not completely futile.

	Deid
Ah...

	Shadam
There was another part to the legend. The three lances, of which is blessed by the god of war, Myri, will help seal the evilness of the dragon. Right now, I'm having the priests make the "Lances of Myri."

	Kashue
Okay. One the lances are done, we'll leave.

	Pan
King Kashue, take me with you.

	Kashue
You want to go that badly?

	Pan
Yes

	Kashue
However, I won't allow such recklessness like you did before.
Will you swear to be able to obey my command?

	Pan
Y...yes, Your Majesty

AT MARFA'S TEMPLE

	Neese
Slayn, I'm sorry. The condition of Lodoss seems worse than I thought.

	Slayn
Then what about Lodoss?

	Neese
It is a time of trial.

	Lairia
Mother

	Neese
Your powers are needed.

	Slayn
Is it our time?

	Lairia
I will give you my assistance.

	Slayn
Lairia

	Neese
Slayn, please take care of her.
<She looks up>
Marfa, give us your strength.

AT MT FIRE DRAGON

<Shooting Star has left>

	Pirotase
Now is the chance.
Let me accompany you.

	Ashram
And if you become a burden?

	Pirotase
Kill me.

	Ashram
Do as you wish.
Let's go.

BACK TO THE HEROES

	Sheris
This is the "Path of the Dragon?"

	Shadam
Your Majesty, take this.

	Kashue
Let's believe in the divine protection of Myri and in our own abilities. We 
can definitely inflict a serious wound.
Shaddam, I'm leaving the rest to you.

	Shadam
Please, return safely.

<Inside the path>

	Kashue
Let's go.

	Deid
It splits into two.

	Pan
I'll check it out.

	Kashue
Wait
<boulders come crashing down>
Remember this: Things that appear real are lies.

	Sheris
Which mean it's this way.
<She gets hit by a gust of hot air>

	Kashue
Don't touch it. You'll be burned.

	Orson
Sheris

	Deid
Ah... <spell> Sylph, fairy of the wind, give us the protection of the wind to 
dispel the flame. Sylph, fairy of the wind, give us the protection of the wind 
to dispel the flame.
Go now.

	Pan
Deid

AT FLAIM'S GUARD ENCAMPMENT

	Lookout
Wha'?

	Shadam
Retreat. Don't think about fighting for now.

AT MT FIRE DRAGON

	Ashram
This is...

	Pirotase
Wha'?

	Soldiers
Ohh

	Magician
Please wait a moment.

	Ashram
Wha'?

	Magician
<spell> To that which is cloaked with lies, answer my calls for discloakment. 
To that which is cloaked with lies, answer my calls for discloakment. 

AT THE LOOKOUT CAMP

	Shadam
King Kashue

WITHIN MT FIRE DRAGON

	Pirotase
Wha'?

	Sheris
This place is...

	Orson
It's filled with stench.

	Deid
Wha'?

	Ashram
What a strange place to meet, Mercenary Soldier King.

	Kashue
Wha'?
<He looks at Ashram>
Ashram

	Pan
Ashram, you

	Kashue
Wait

	Ashram
The boy from last time

	Pan
What are you scheming?

	Ashram
What if I said to grasp Lodoss into my hands?

	Pan
What?

	Pirotase
Shall I have you come to me this time?
<this comment directed at Deid>

	Deid
You're...

<They fight>

	Ashram
<He laughs>
You've improved

	Pan
"A sword is not a toy," wasn't that it?

	Ashram
You're still weak.

<Shooting Star retrurns back to his lair and breathes fire>

	Pirotase
Ashram

	Pan
The fire...

	Ashram
So, even the dragons are conquered by the Sceptre of Domination.

	Kashue
That's...

	Deid
It looks like the Sceptre of Domination.

	Kashue
It can't be.

	Deid
Pan, you can't let the Marmo take that.

	Pan
What?

<Shooting Star looks at Ashram>

	Ashram
So, I'm the Dragonslayer
<He holds up the staff>
I'll be the one to defeat him.
<Pirotase moves to guard him>
Move.

	Pirotase
You musn't. It's too dangerous.
<She protects him from the rock fall but she falls over the cliff>

	Ashram
<He saves her>
Wha'?

	Magician
Thanks for the Sceptre of Domination. 
<Literal: I've got the Sceptre of Domination>

	Ashram
Ohh

<Orson sticks one lance in Shooting Star's head>

	Kashue
Let's go, Pan.

	Pan
All right

<They charge with their lances>

	Deid
It's too dangerous. <spell> Sylph, save him.
<She throws a spell at the dragon>

<Kashue and Pan finally thrust their lances in the dragon's head. The dragon 
breathes out one last burst of flame at Ashram>

	Asram
Wha'?

	Pirotase
<She falls in his arms>
F..for the conquest of Lodoss

	Ashram
Pirotessa

<Her headpiece falls off. [symbolism guys!!]>

	Kashue
Let's get out of here.

	Pan
Wha'?
<He ses Asram holding Pirotase before they fall>

	Kashue
Hurry up, Pan.

	Narrator
Ashram appeared in flames and was gone in flames. When they met, that 
which was exchanged was not words but only swords. However, Ashram's 
wordless death was imprinted into Pan's heart.

If you plan to subtitle with this script, please mention that it was
translated by "LODOSS WARRIORS, 1991".  Also do not forget that
if you subtitle, DO NOT DISTRIBUTE the subtitled copy.  If you do, you 
will be in the act of piracy and if you're caught, you'll be in serious 
shit.  Subtitled copies can be obtained from William Chow at 
wchow@questor.wimsey.bc.ca as soon as they subtitles 
it.  (At least if you get it from Chow, you'll be assured of a 
good subtitled copy and then a million different subtitled copies won't 
be on the loose.)
Stay tuned for more Lodoss updates and scripts in the future.
