CHAPTER II: BESRODIO RESCUE

『Besrodio Rescue: The one behind the Bart Company who palnned to take the stones was Draclau. With Mustadio's quick thinking, they saved the stone and rescued Besrodio. But the Cardinal had both Ovelia and Agrias. You rushed to Lionel Castle to save them, taking the stone with you. 』

[Mustadio kneels over his father in one of the buildings in the slums. Ramza looks on.]

MUSTADIO: Are you alright, father?

BESRODIO: Don't worry about me.... They got the stone. Rudvich'll try to revive the machines beneath Goug with its power. He may even try to use the divine power in the stones. Besides, the Cardinal is working with Bart Company. Not much we can do now...

MUSTADIO: Heh, heh... Good for them.

[Mustadio stands up and turns.]

BESRODIO: What do you mean?

[Mustadio produces the Taurus stone and turns back to his father.]

MUSTADIO: I made a fake one in case something like this happened.

[He puts the stone away again. Ramza steps forward.]

RAMZA: You mean, they got a fake?

[Mustadio turns to him.]

MUSTADIO: That's right. They must be going crazy now.

[Ramza lowers his head.]

RAMZA: Princess Ovelia and Agrias are in danger....!

MUSTADIO: What do you mean?

RAMZA: The Cardinal joined Bart to get the stone. He may take the Princess hostage.

MUSTADIO: Ridiculous! Making an enemy of the royal family!

RAMZA: Why do you think the Cardinal wanted the stone? People are sick of long wars and political infighting. Draclau wants to use the 'Zodiac Brave Story'. Creating 'Zodiac Braves' by collecting holy stones, he can control the world.

[Mustadio turns to Besrodio as he begins to speak.]

BESRODIO: He is right. We can't give the stone to the Cardinal.

[Mustadio turns back to Ramza.]

RAMZA: Let's save the Princess and Agrias!

MUSTADIO: Right. But the way to Lionel is probably sealed. We'll use a ship to sneak in the back of the castle.
