CHAPTER II: BATTLE AT GOLOGRAND EXECUTION SITE
[Ovelia stands, eyes closed, in the middle of an executioner's platform. A hooded man stands over her. Guards in Lionel colors surround the scene.]
EXECUTIONER: Any last words?
[She remains silent as the executioner lowers his arms.]
EXECUTIONER: No? I see.
[A knight on the execution site's upper wall turns.]
KNIGHT OF LIONEL TROOP (Male): Huh? The enemy!!
[Ramza's company arrives.]
RAMZA: That's far enough! Return the Princess, now!
EXECUTIONER: Heh, heh, heh.... You fell into a trap!
RAMZA: !?
[The executioner throws aside his cloak and Ovelia puts aside her robes, revealing themselves to be Gafgarion and a female archer in diguise. Additional guards file onto the scene.]
GAFGARION: You're still too naive, kid.
RAMZA: Where is the Princess!?
GAFGARION: At Lionel Castle. Where's the stone?
RAMZA: Stone?
GAFGARION: Stop playing dumb. The stone you stole from the Cardinal. You're with the one who stole it! Just hand it over!
RAMZA: If you want it, you'll have to take it!
GAFGARION: Seems you've matured a bit. ...Then I will!
[BATTLE BEGINS]
GAFGARION: It's not too late! Let's go back to Igros! Your brother, Dycedarg said he'd forgive you! Come on, wake up!!
RAMZA: No, I won't be involved in any more wrong doing!
GAFGARION: 'Wrong doing'? What do you mean by that? You are a Beoulve! You have a mission to accomplish. 'Wrong doing', indeed! It's your mission, don't be such a fool!
RAMZA: My brothers are making war for personal reasons! What else can you call it other than 'evil'?
GAFGARION: You must make 'sacrifices' to accomplish anything! Without 'sacrifice' there's no progress, no history! Look at Ivalice! Corrupt! Someone must change it!! Your brothers are trying to do that! Even if it means 'wrong doing'!
RAMZA: But that doesn't mean I should leave her stranded!
GAFGARION: Forget about Ft. Zeakden! It couldn't be helped! You're a Beoulve. You have a given duty! It is your fate!
RAMZA: It's fate that let Teta die? No, that's wrong! We killed her out of convenience...Yes, us! I've run from the truth long enough...I killed her...
AGRIAS: Ramza, are you really a Beoulve?
GAFGARION: Didn't you know, Agrias? His name is Ramza Beoulve. One of the Beoulve family.
RAMZA: It's true I'm a Beoulve! But I'm not like my brothers! I never knew about kidnapping the princess! I swear it!
AGRIAS: No doubt in my mind! I believe you!!
GAFGARION: This is ridiculous! One girl has died, so what? We must first think about 'justice'!
RAMZA: There's no 'justice' in using and deceiving people! I can't ignore people dying for 'justice'! I'll save Princess Ovelia!
GAFGARION: Stubborn kid!
[IF AGRIAS IS INJURED]
AGRIAS: What're you going to do with the Princess!?
GAFGARION: My contract's to take her back to Gallione. I have no idea what Larg will do after that.
AGRIAS: You're using her as a tool for battle! Same as you! Larg and Dycedarg are using you, too! Aren't you ashamed of yourself? Don't you have any pride?
GAFGARION: What's the use? I gave mine up long ago!
[ONCE GAFGARION IS INJURED]
GAFGARION: Damn it! I didn't expect you to be this strong.....! Retreat for now!!
[Gafgarion vanishes.]
[BATTLE ENDS]
RAMZA: We must go to Lionel Castle immediately!!
