• 2030
• Harun
  Heh heh.
  We're here!
  ...Huh? Where's Julien and Ogun?

• 2031
• Julien
  ...Ogun, do you now understand now that we have fought together?
  I would never let Vittoria die to take a sword for myself.
  You have the wrong idea about me.

• 2032
• Ogun
  ......

• 2033
• Julien
  Now, please let us have the treasured sword.

• 2034
• Ogun
  ...
  ...Very well.
  But I'm not giving it to you.
  ...Player, I want you to take it.

• 2035
• Ogun
  ...Do not let it out of your grasp until you return home.

• 2036
• Julien
  Ha ha...
  He really doesn't trust me, does it.

• 2037
• Harun
  Come on, you guys...
  Ogun, Julien, stop being so stubborn.
  ...Look, we have the treasured sword now, so why don't we go back to my caravan's camp and spend the night there?

• 2038
• Vittoria
  ...Yes, that sounds good.
  I'm pretty tired!

• 2039
• Harun
  My dad's caravan will be moving out to the next city tomorrow.
  So since this will be our last night together, let's celebrate!

• 2040
• Vittoria
  You're right.
  Come on, everyone, let's go!

• 2041
• Vigour is recovered!

• 2042
• Vittoria
  Oh, good morning, Player.
  Did you sleep well last night?

• 2043
• Ogun
  Player, you sleep too much.

• 2044
• Harun
  Now then...
  I have to go make preparations to leave.
  But before that: Vittoria...

• 2045
• Vittoria
  Yes?

• 2046
• Harun
  ...Ever since I came here, I've been thinking I wanted to go back to the salon.
  Every day, no matter where we travelled to...
  But lately, I've come to think that being a peddler can be pretty fun too...
  ...And...this way I can be together and travel with my mum and dad.
  So...
  Well...

• 2047
• Vittoria
  ...You can't come back to the salon, can you?

• 2048
• Harun
  No.
  I'm sorry...

• 2049
• Vittoria
  There's nothing to apologize for.
  You found something that you truly want to do.
  It's wonderful.
  Besides, even if you do continue to be a pedlar, you can still come back to Venice someday, right?
  If I can see you grown up and matured, there is nothing more I could wish for.

• 2050
• Harun
  ...Really?

• 2051
• Vittoria
  Yes, really.
  ...But you have to promise me that we will see each other again someday, okay?

• 2052
• Harun
  Of course!
  ...Oh, I almost forgot.
  Just one more thing...

• 2053
• Vittoria
  Oh? What's that?

• 2054
• Harun
  ...
  Mmm...
  ...Never mind! It's nothing!

• 2055
• Vittoria
  ...??
  Well that was weird.

• 2056
• Hamed
  Hey, Harun! We're moving out.

• 2057
• Harun
  Aw crap...
  I guess I have to go now.
  

• 2058
• Vittoria
  Take care of yourself, Harun.
  And good luck.

• 2059
• Harun
  You bet! Okay then, Player, Vittoria, see you later!

• 2060
• Vittoria
  Ogun, thank you again for helping us so much.
  I am truly in your debt.

• 2061
• Ogun
  Player, Vittoria.
  May you have the protection of the earth's spirits with you at all times..
  Farewell...

• 2062
• Voice
  ...There they go.

• 2063
• Julien
  I'm just disappointed that I was unable to clear up his misunderstanding before they left...

• 2064
• Vittoria
  Yeah...

• 2065
• Julien
  ...By the way, it looks like I can now make preparations for my voyage.
  Why don't we set about going home ourselves?

• 2066
• Vittoria
  You're right.
  Besides, I want to hurry and give the sword to my brother.
  Let's go, Player.

• 2067
• Voice
  ...Hey, Player.

• 2068
• Harun
  Earlier...
  There was something I wanted to tell Vittoria, but I just couldn't.

• 2069
• How will you respond?

• 2070
• What's that?

• 2071
• Don't you have to get going?

• 2072
• Harun
  No, it's fine...
  I asked the caravan to wait for me for a bit.
  Anyway, there's something I just have to tell you, Player...

• 2073
• Harun
  To tell the truth..
  I may have seen it too.

• 2074
• Harun
  I may have seen Julien hiding in the shadows of the trees at that prairie...
  I'm not 100％ sure of what I saw, and I know that if I told Vittoria this, she'd be really sad...
  And above all else, Julien helped save our lives.
  So, I couldn't tell her...

• 2075
• Harun
  So...
  I have something I want to ask of you, Player.
  Will you hear me out?

• 2076
• How will you respond?

• 2077
• Of course.

• 2078
• I have no obligation to do so.

• 2079
• Harun
  Come on, you old codger! Don't say that...
  No, listen.
  Actually...

• 2080
• Harun
  If...and I do mean "if", Julien is a bad guy who's up to no good...
  I want you, Player, to make sure Vittoria is safe.
  Since I can't be there to do it.

• 2081
• How will you respond?

• 2082
• Okay, I see.

• 2083
• No.

• 2084
• Harun
  Aw come on, you cheapo Player! I'm not going to move until you promise me!
  ...Come on, hear me out.
  I won't be able to stop worrying unless you do...

• 2085
• Harun
  Thanks.
  Now I can rest assured.
  

• 2086
• Harun
  Olay then...
  This is a little advance on my gratitude.
  I acquired it myself.
  Please take it.

• 2087
• Harun
  ...But, it looks like your ship hold is all full.

• 2088
• You don't have enough space in your ship hold.
  Will you make space in your ship hold in order to receive the 50 boxes of emeralds?

• 2089
• What do you want to do?

• 2090
• Create space and receive them

• 2091
• Decline them

• 2092
• Harun
  I see...
  Well, if you don't need them, I guess there's nothing to be done.
  Okay, Player, until we meet again!

• 2093
• Harun
  Okay then.
  Sorry to inconvenience you, but please make space in your ship hold.

• 2094
• Harun
  All right then, Player, until we meet again!

• 2095
• Harun
  Make space in your ship hold?

• 2096
• Vittoria
  You're late, Player.
  Is everything okay?

• 2097
• Julien
  We're ready to set sail....
  Let's hurry back to Venice.

• 2098
• Julien
  Ha ha...
  It's good to see Venice again.

• 2099
• Vittoria
  Player, Julien, thank you for your hard work on this long trip.
  I should give you this now.

• 2100
• Julien
  What's this...?

• 2101
• Vittoria
  Remember how I promised that I would thank you when we all came back alive?

• 2102
• Julien
  Ha ha...
  Now now, that's not necessary.

• 2103
• Vittoria
  Alvise should be home at this time.
  Let's hurry and bring him the sword.

• 2104
• Vittoria
  I'm home!

• 2105
• Emaretta
  ...!
  Mistress Vittoria...!?
  Oh my goodness.
  You're safe...
  ...Master! Mistress Vittoria is back!

• 2106
• Alvise
  Vittoria...!

• 2107
• Vittoria
  Alvise...!

• 2108
• Julien
  Ha ha...
  It's good to see you two together again.

• 2109
• Emaretta
  Ever since Mistress Vittoria disappeared, the whole house has been in an uproar.
  Afterwards we found out that you were together with Master Player, and we were relieved at that news, but we had no idea where you had gone, so we were so worried...
  Oh, I'm so glad you're back safe and sound...

• 2110
• Alvise
  So, Player, you were with her after all...
  So, Vittoria, where on earth have you been all this time?

• 2111
• Vittoria
  Heh heh.
  Just where you think I've been.
  ...Go on, Player, show my brother what we brought back.

• 2112
• What do you want to do?

• 2113
• Take out the sword

• 2114
• Don't take it out

• 2115
• You took out the Sword of the Caliph!

• 2116
• Vittoria
  What is it...? Player?

• 2117
• Alvise
  This is...the Sword of the Caliph...

• 2118
• Vittoria
  That's right.
  We finally managed to find it on the eastern side of Africa.

• 2119
• Alvise
  ...It's impressive that you were able to get it with all those Turkish troops there.

• 2120
• Vittoria
  It's all thanks to Player and Julien.

• 2121
• Alvise
  Hmph...
  Julien, eh...
  ...Player, I must thank you from the bottom of my heart for escorting my sister on this trip.
  If you hadn't been there, she would almost certainly have been killed in a strange far-off country.

• 2122
• Vittoria
  Hey...! Alvise, Julien also...

• 2123
• Alvise
  He has appeared here for no other reason than to destroy our family.
  I have already had him thoroughly investigated.
  Now, why not come out and reveal your true identity, Julien Clarence...
  Or should I say, the son of Viscountess Margaret Vernier.

• 2124
• Julien
  My my...
  Whatever are you talking about?

• 2125
• Julien
  Ha ha...
  I'm sensing some very unpleasant feelings here.
  Please, tell me, what is it I have done?

• 2126
• Vittoria
  That's right...
  What's going on? Even on this trip, Julien was always...!

• 2127
• Alvise
  Emaretta, take Vittoria.

• 2128
• Emaretta
  ...Yes, sir.
  ...Come on, mistress, let's go to that room...

• 2129
• Vittoria
  No! Come on, Alvise, tell me...! What's going on...

• 2130
• Alvise
  Take her, now!

• 2131
• Emaretta
  Y-yes sir!

• 2132
• Soldier
  We already have a warrant for your arrest signed by the Doge himself.
  Do not show yourself before us again.

• 2133
• Soldier
  If you try to protect him, we will have no choice but to arrest you too.

• 2134
• Alvise
  ...Player, I'm sorry you had to see such an ugly scene so soon after your return.
  ...Now, Julien, I look forward to having a nice, long talk about your true identity with you in prison.

• 2135
• Julien
  ...Ha ha.

• 2136
• Alvise
  ...What's so funny?

• 2137
• Julien
  It's not enough to hide that picture.
  No, you had to try and capture me now...
  I guess you really can't fight bad blood.
  I'm disappointed in you, Monsieur Orseolo.

• 2138
• Soldier
  This smoke...
  Ugh...!

• 2139
• Alvise
  *cough* *hack*...! You...
  What have you done...

• 2140
• Julien
  ...It's sleeping gas used secretly by the Indians.
  Once you inhale it from your mouth, you will swiftly begin to lose consciousness.
  ...But please, don't worry.
  It is not poisonous in the slightest, and you will be fine after you wake up.
  I still need you to play the lead on the stage of the final comedy that's about to be unveiled.

• 2141
• Alvise
  Y-you swine you...

• 2142
• Julien
  ...Player, I'm truly sorry to have dragged you into this when you had nothing to do with it.
  And, Mademoiselle Vittoria, please forgive me for betraying our friendship in this way.
  Au revoir, mes cheres amis.
  (Farewell, my beloved friends.
  Until we meet again.)

• 2143
• Voice
  ...Player!
  Player, wake up!

• 2144
• Vittoria
  ...Player!
  Thank goodness...
  It looked like you might never wake up.

• 2145
• How will you respond?

• 2146
• Where's Julien?

• 2147
• Is the sword safe?

• 2148
• Where's Alvise?

• 2149
• Vittoria
  ...
  ...He's gone.
  Somewhere...
  And the sword is gone too...
  Alvise says that Julien stole it..
  

• 2150
• Vittoria
  ...
  ...We can't find it anywhere.
  Alvise says that Julien stole it...

• 2151
• Vittoria
  ...He woke up, but when he found out the sword was gone he collapsed again...
  When he did, he said that Julien had stolen it...
  

• 2152
• Vittoria
  Hey...
  What do you think happened between Julien and Alvise?

• 2153
• Voice
  You shouldn't get involved with it...

• 2154
• Vittoria
  Alvise! You need your rest...!

• 2155
• Alvise
  Go back to your room, Vittoria.
  And don't set one foot outside this house until that man is arrested.

• 2156
• Vittoria
  Come on! Why do I...

• 2157
• Alvise
  ...Vittoria, please...
  I beg you.
  Don't make any more trouble for me...

• 2158
• Vittoria
  Why do you look so sad...

• 2159
• Alvise
  ......

• 2160
• Vittoria
  Okay, Alvise.
  If that's what you really think, I just won't listen anymore.
  ...Player, I'm so sorry it's come to this...

• 2161
• Alvise
  ...Player, do not speak of what you saw today to anyone.
  ...
  ...I know very well how cowardly this is.
  I hope that you will be the one to admonish me for my sins someday...
  Once we have finished the battle with Turkey and saved this country...

• 2162
• How will you respond?

• 2163
• Promise not to say anything to anyone

• 2164
• I think I might tell someone

• 2165
• There's something I want to ask you!

• 2166
• Alvise
  I have no time for your irrelevant questions.
  ...Player, please do not tell anyone else of what you saw here.
  I'm begging you...

• 2167
• Alvise
  ...
  If you do, I will have to arrest you as well.
  Please, do not tell anyone else of what you saw here.
  I'm begging you...

• 2168
• Alvise
  Thank you...
  I promise I will make it up to you someday.

• 23149
• Upon arriving in Mogadishu, Julien demanded that Ogun hand over the sword.
  However, Ogun was unable to trust Julien and gave the sword to Player instead.
  In an effort to clear the tension hanging in the air, Harun suggested that they spend the night in the caravan's camp.
  The group enjoyed one last feast together before going their separate ways.

• 23150
• The next morning, when Player awoke, the caravan had already finished their preparations to move on to the next town.
  Harun was reluctant to leave Vittoria again, but he was determined not to return to the Salon and instead live the life of a pedlar with his parents.
  Harun felt guilty about his decision, but Vittoria replied that she was pleased that he had finally found what it was he wanted to do with his life.

• 23151
• After Harun and Ogun left, Julien returned from making the preparations for their journey.
  He stated that he regretted not being able to clear up the misunderstanding with Ogun, and together with Vittoria, headed to the port.
  Just as Player was ready to leave as well, somebody called out from behind.
  Turning around, it was Harun, who was short of breath from running.

• 23152
• Harun said there was something that he had to say.
  The truth was, he, like Ogun, had seen Julien hiding in the shade of a tree in the grass-covered plains.
  However, he owed Julien greatly and was unable to believe that he would leave Vittoria to die, so he did not say anything.
  Harun spoke to Player, "If Julien is truly plotting something, I want you to protect Vittoria," and after promising they'd meet again someday, left to return home.

• 23153
• And so, Julien, Vittoria and Player held various thoughts in their minds as they returned to Venice.

• 23154
• Finally, the group reached Venice.
  Vittoria paid the promised reward to Player and Julien, and headed to the Orseolo mansion to present Alvise with the sword.

• 23155
• Alvise was relieved to see Vittoria return safely.

• 23156
• Upon seeing the Sword of the Caliph, he thanked Player for travelling with Vittoria in order to prevent Julien from trying anything.
  Vittoria was still hesitant to suspect Julien of any wrongdoing.
  Interrupting, Alvise said, "He has appeared here for no other reason than to destroy our family.
  I have already had him thoroughly investigated.
  Now, why not come out and reveal your true identity, Julien Clarence...
  Or should I say, the son of Viscountess Margaret Vernier." Determined to arrest Julien, the night watch entered the room.
  However, Julien did not appear to be afraid and casually asked what he had done wrong.
  Vittoria tried to prevent her quick-tempered brother from proceeding.
  However, Alvise ordered Emaretta to remove Vittoria from the room.

• 23157
• Alvise ordered that he be arrested.
  A defiant smile came to Julien's mouth as he said, "I refuse to give up as long as you are hiding that picture and now you try to capture me...
  I see you cannot fight your bloodlines.
  I am disappointed in you, Monsieur Orseolo." When he finished speaking, a mysterious gas came from Julien's hand.
  It was a sleeping gas that was used in a secret ceremony by the people of the Indies.
  Inhaling the gas, Alvise fell to the ground and Julien said, "Don't worry.
  This gas won't kill you.
  Your story is just beginning, for I need you to play the main part in the final act of this play." Then, as Player was slipping into unconsciousness, Julien's parting words hung in the air, "Au revoir, mes cheres amis."

• 23158
• Several hours later, Player finally came to.
  Vittoria could not believe the story that Julien had stolen the treasured sword and escaped.
  She asked Player if something happened between Julien and Alvise.
  Then, Alvise entered and ordered her not to set foot outside the mansion until Julien was captured.
  Vittoria tried to argue, but she could not help but swallow her words after seeing the saddened look on her brother's face.

• 23159
• After Vittoria had left, Alvise warned Player not to mention to anybody what had happened.
  Then, he stated that he wished for Player to look into his sins after this war with Turkey had come to an end, and he left the mansion alone.
