CHAPTER IV: BATTLE IN THE GRAVEYARD OF AIRSHIPS I
[The scene is a massive, age worn airship tangled with vines and rust. Vormav kneels before the unconscious form of Alma Beoulve.]
VORMAV: ...Why? Why doesn't Virgo work?
[He stands, clutching his head.]
VORMAV: The Holy Angel's spirit is around in here... Why...?
[His arms drop.]
VORMAV: Maybe it's Ajora reincarnated...? ...No, that can't be. Certainly, Virgo did react.
[He looks upwards to where Ramza and company have arrived.]
VORMAV: ...You're here.
RAMZA: That's far enough, Vormav! Virgo's not working! So give up and hand over Alma!!
VORMAV: No, it will work... It just needs more... You didn't hear? It just needs more blood... Lots of blood is needed for the Angel's resurrection. Much bloodshed since Ajora's death, but I guess it wasn't enough... I guess I'll have to go on another rampage...!! Heh, heh, heh.... Don't worry... I'll 'sacrifice' you first.
[Vormav holds aloft the Leo stone. There is a burst of golden energy that suffuses him, and when the light fades, he is transformed into a leonine Lucavi.]
HASHMALUM: Master, 'Bloody Angel'... Let me offer you 'blood' darker than wine and hotter than burning lava!
[BATTLE BEGINS]
RAMZA: Alma! Hold on! Please! Open your eyes!! Alma!!
HASHMALUM: It's no use... You cannot wake her...
RAMZA: What have you done to Alma!?
HASHMALUM: Her existence impedes our goal... When she wakes, she will remember her mission... Her important mission to call our allies...
[BATTLE ENDS]
HASHMALUM: Master... you are not awake yet?
[There is a shimmer of light, and Alma awakens.]
ALMA: Ugh...Wh...Where am I...?
RAMZA: Alma!!
ALMA: Brother...Ramza?
HASHMALUM: I won't let you interfere. Bloody Angel!! I offer...my own life...for your resurrection...!!
[Hashmalum rends his claws into his own entrails and there is a sudden burst of golden light before he vanishes, letting the Leo stone fall to the ground. Alma stands up, her features transformed, her hair bone white.]
ST. AJORA: I have my body back...
RAMZA: Alma!!
VORMAV: ...Why? Why doesn't Virgo work?
