[Ramza and company chase the knights into the crypts beneath Murond. Vormav confronts them in a room with a giant, ornate coffin in its center.]
VORMAV: No more time to waste... I want to end this now, but you probably won't go quietly... I'm afraid your life must end here. My servants will be your opponents. A coffin...just the thing for you. Rest in peace.
[Vormav summons three demons to the scene.]
VORMAV: This man will be your opponent...
[There is a burst of magic, and Zalbag Beoulve appears, his face pale and deathly.]
RAMZA: Zalbag!!
VORMAV: He maybe your brother, but he's joined our family. Think you can fight with him? Ha, ha...
[Vormav vanishes.]
RAMZA: Dirty --!!
VORMAV'S VOICE: Zalbag, kill the boy before you! Don't let him leave this temple alive!!
[BATTLE BEGINS]
RAMZA: Brother! Zalbag!! It's me!!
ZALBAG: Is that you, Ramza...? What...am I doing? Can't feel a thing...
RAMZA: You're being controlled by Lucavi!!
ZALBAG: I'm...fighting...you? Why...? Go Ramza, Run! Or else...I might...kill you.
RAMZA: Brother!!
ZALBAG: Please...Ramza. Kill...me... I'm in pain...no feeling in my hands and feet, yet it hurts...all over... The scariest part is... I'm slowly losing my memory.
RAMZA: You'll be ok, Zalbag!! I'm sure there's a way! So, don't give up!! Please, don't give up!
ZALBAG: No, hurry up and... kill me...I'm in pain... I hear voices...talking...crying...calling...taunting. Do something...Help me...Hurry and...kill me.
RAMZA: Damn that Vormav!!
[BATTLE ENDS]
ZALBAG: I'm so sorry, Ramza... to make you...suffer. Save...Alma... You're the only one... who can... I...have to go now...Goodbye...Ramza... Thank you......
[Zalbag's body glows red. He vanishes in a burst of magical energy.]
RAMZA: Zalbaaaaaag!!
[Ramza and company chase the knights into the crypts beneath Mullonde. Folmarv confronts them in a room with a giant, ornate coffin in its center.]
FOLMARV: I fear I've no more time to waste on you. Would that I could bid you farewell here, but I suspect you'd not part ways so easily. I suppose you must be returned to the Father after all. My thralls will delight to guide you to His keeping. This sanctuary even holds a sarcophagus. It's as though Fate lends her hand!
[Folmarv summons three demons to the scene.]
FOLMARV: Of course, death is sooner served by steel. I shall let this one be your foeman as well.
[There is a burst of magic, and Zalbag Beoulve appears, his face pale and deathly.]
RAMZA: Zalbaag!
FOLMARV: Once he was your brother, but he is reborn unto us now. You're a heretic already. Why not a kinslayer? *chuckle*
[Folmarv vanishes.]
RAMZA: Ever the coward!
FOLMARV'S VOICE: Zalbaag! Deliver me the head of that young man before you! He must not leave this cathedral alive!
[BATTLE BEGINS]
RAMZA: Lord Brother, its I! Do you not know your own blood?
ZALBAAG: ...Ramza? Is that you? What...what is this place? It is so dark, and I...I cannot see. Am I-what am I doing? Do I stand? Sit? I have no...no sensation. It's as though I...had no limbs.
RAMZA: You are being controlled by Lord Folmarv--a Lucavi!
ZALBAAG: Am I...fighting you? Why...why would I do such a thing? Ramza...flee. Flee, or...or I may strike you down.
RAMZA: Lord Brother! Heed not the false feelings in your mind!
ZALBAAG: I...I beg you, Ramza-- kill...kill me. The pain--it's blinding. I cannot feel my arms or...or my legs, and yet--and yet somehow they burn! And my memories--they turn to smoke. I...I am afraid, Ramza, as I...as I have never been before.
RAMZA: Do not give in! There must be a way for you to overcome this! We will find it! Please, do not abandon hope!
ZALBAAG: Hope...abandons me. I ask only...only for mercy, Ramza... Someone whispers...in my ear. Whispers, beckons...cries, and taunts... Oh, gods, end it...please! Grant...grant me swift mercy.
RAMZA: Damn you, Folmarv!
[BATTLE ENDS]
ZALBAAG: F-forgive me, Ramza. I have...have caused you pain. Alma...Please...save Alma. You are her...only hope. F-farewell, my brother. And...thank you.
[Zalbag's body glows red. He vanishes in a burst of magical energy.]
RAMZA: Zalbaag-!
from Sugnuf's story translation.
[Vormav stands above what looks like a sacrophagus of some sort, watching the party.]
VORMAV: I've no more time to waste on you... I would have made your death short and painless, but I doubt you're going to roll over nicely and die... Nonetheless, you breathe your last here. You will fight my servants. A tomb... just the thing for you. May you rest in peace. [Vormav's Holy Stone shimmers, summoning demons.] This man shall also be your opponent...
[Zalbag, changed into a zombie, teleports in.]
RAMZA: Lord brother!!
VORMAV: He may be your brother, but he has been reborn a member of the Dark. Will you fight him? Ha, ha, ha, ha...
[exit Vormav magically]
RAMZA: Vormav, you foul coward!!
VORMAV'S VOICE: Zalbag, kill the boy! Don't let him leave the precincts alive!!
[battle ensues, with Zalbag as target]
RAMZA: Brother! Zalbag!! It's me!!
ZALBAG: Is that you, Ramza... ? What... am I doing?... I can't feel a thing...
RAMZA: You're being controlled by Lucavi, Zalbag, fight them! You must seize free of their power!
ZALBAG: I'm... fighting... you? Why... ? Go Ramza, run, leave immediately! Or else... I might... kill you...
RAMZA: Zalbag!!
[sparring]
[Once Zalbag is wounded...]
ZALBAG: ... Ramza... Kill me... the pain... my limbs are numb, yet I ache... all over... but worse yet... my memory... it's fading...
RAMZA: You'll be okay, Zalbag!! There has to be a way! Don't give up!! Please, don't give up!
ZALBAG: ... No... it's too late... for me... hurry... kill me... the pain... I hear voices... talking... crying... calling... threatening... deliver me, Ramza... end this suffering...
RAMZA: Vormav, damn you!!
[Zalbag is critically injured]
ZALBAG: ... I'm sorry, Ramza... for all... that has happened... ... Save... Alma... You're her only... hope... go... quickly.... thank you and farewell... my brother...
[Zalbag dies, taking the demons with him.]
RAMZA: ZALBAG--!!!
[Ramza and company chase the knights into the crypts beneath Murond. Vormav confronts them in a room with a giant, ornate coffin in its center.]
VORMAV: Enough of this... I'd like to take those stones off of your hands too, but you won't go quietly... I'm afraid your life must end here. My servants will be your opponents. Can you guess who is inside this coffin? May he rest in peace.
[Vormav summons three demons to the scene.]
VORMAV: Queklain, Velius, Hashmalum, Adramelk...
[There is a burst of magic, and Zalbag Beoulve appears, his face pale and deathly.]
RAMZA: Zalbag!!
VORMAV: He maybe your brother, but he's joined our family. Let's see the Beoulve best. Ha, ha...
[Vormav vanishes.]
RAMZA: Bastard----!!
VORMAV'S VOICE: Zalbag, kill him! I want to see blood, and you've none of your own to offer!
[BATTLE BEGINS]
RAMZA: Brother! Zalbag!! It's me!!
ZALBAG: Is that you, Ramza...? What...am I doing? Can't feel a thing...
RAMZA: You're being controlled!
ZALBAG: I'm...fighting...you? Why...? Go Ramza, run! Don't let me... hurt you.
RAMZA: Zalbag!
ZALBAG: Please...Ramza. Stop me. I'm in pain...no feeling in my hands and feet, yet it hurts...all over... It's a struggle to... remember your name.
RAMZA: Zalbag, please! You're on your feet! There must be a way to save you! Please, don't give up!
ZALBAG: It's too late, Ramza... Could've stopped him... years ago. You knew better... I was ashamed... He killed me... back at Igros... effortless...
RAMZA: Damn them all! Vormav!
[BATTLE ENDS]
ZALBAG: I'm so sorry, Ramza... to make you...suffer. Save...Alma... Redeem... us... Goodbye.
[Zalbag's body glows red. He vanishes in a burst of magical energy.]
RAMZA: No... Damnit... no. Zalbag!
RAMZA: Zalbaag-!
[Ramza and company chase the knights into the crypts beneath Murond. Volmarv confronts them in a room with a giant, ornate coffin in its center.]
VOLMARV: We've prepared a nice coffin for you to rest in, young Ramza. You should be thankful.
[Volmarv summons three demons to the scene.]
VOLMARV: And who better to tuck you in than your own brother?
[There is a burst of magic, and Zalbag Beoulve appears, his face pale and deathly.]
RAMZA: Zalbag?!
VOLMARV: I'd avoid a cheerful reunion with him. His fangs have only grown in.
[Volmarv vanishes.]
RAMZA: You turned my brother into a vampire?!
VOLMARV'S VOICE: Not I, Adrammelech is to thank for that. 'A toxin so potent no antidote in creation can cure it.' Hahaha!
[BATTLE BEGINS]
RAMZA: Zalbag! Can you hear me?
ZALBAG: Ramza...? Stay away! Don't get close!
RAMZA: Can you fight the urges?! There must be a cure!
ZALBAG: I smell... your blood... I can... hear it... pulsing in your veins... Ramza, kill me!
RAMZA: Damn it! I can't lose you too!
ZALBAG: Ramza! The thought of eating you is terrifying enough without any control of my body... But there are voices... screaming... crying... howling voices in here and I can't even plug my ears in an attempt to silence them!
RAMZA: We'll put you under paralysis spells! We'll hold you down if we must! Just resist as best you can, please!
ZALBAG: It's too late for me. For years people have researched a cure for vampirism... No one on this Earth has found one...
RAMZA: There must be, you can't die like this, brother!
[BATTLE ENDS]
ZALBAG: Ramza, you're man enough to stare injustice in the face and bite back... And even though I spat on you back in Lesalia, you still tried to help me avenge Dad. We're all proud of you. Me, Dad, and your mother Kianna. For the man you grew up to be. You, Alma, Tietra, and Delita were all... great siblings. So save Alma... in my stead...
[Zalbag's body glows red. He vanishes in a burst of magical energy.]
RAMZA: DAMN YOU ALL TO HE-E-E-E-LL!!
