Site where St. Ajora was executed. Now
it's the Lionel public execution ground.

[3 Lionel knights are standing at guard around scaffold.
Princess Ovelia is on the scaffold. Her eyes are closed.
Right in front of Ovelia is a man in a hood--executioner.]

 Any last words?

[Ovelia is silent...]

 No? I see.

[One of the Lionel knights, who is standing on the wall, notices Ramza's party.]

 Huh? The enemy!!

 That's far enough! Return the Princess, now!

 Heh, heh, heh.... You fell into a trap!

 !?

[Executioner throws away his disguise. It's Gafgarion.
'Ovelia' throws away disguise, too--female archer.
3 more women appears: archer and 2 Time mages.]

 You're still too naive, kid.

 Where is the Princess!?

 At Lionel Castle. Where's the stone?

 Stone?

 Stop playing dumb. The stone you stole from the Cardinal.
	You're with the one who stole it! Just hand it over!

 If you want it, you'll have to take it!

 Seems you've matured a bit.
	...Then, I will!

 It's not too late! Let's go back to Igros! Your brother,
	Dycedarg said he'd forgive you! Come on, wake up!!

 No, I won't be involved in any more wrong doing!

 '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!

 My brothers are making war for personal reasons!
	What else can you call it other than 'evil'?

 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'!

 But that doesn't mean I should leave her stranded!

 Forget about Ft. Zeakden! It couldn't be helped! You're a Beoulve.
	You have a given duty! It is your fate!

 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...

 Ramza, are you really a Beoulve?

 Didn't you know, Agrias? His name is Ramza Beoulve. One of the Beoulve family.

 It's true I'm a Beoulve! But I'm not like my brothers!
	I never knew about kidnapping the Princess! I swear it!

 No doubt in my mind! I believe you!!

 This is ridiculous! One girl has died, so what?
	We must first think about 'justice'!

 There's no 'justice' in using and deceiving people! I can't ignore
	people dying for 'justice'! I'll save princess Ovelia!

 Stubborn kid!

 What're you going to do with the Princess!?

 My contract's to take her back to Gallione.
	I have no idea what Larg will do after that.

 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?

 What's the use? I gave mine up long ago!

[Gafgarion tries to use his Blood Sword to draw life out of 'stubborn kid',
but 'fair youth' defeats 'stiff justice'.]

 Damn it! I didn't expect you to be this strong....!
	Retreat for now!!

[Gafgarion disappears. Enemies were defeated.]

 We must go to Lionel Castle immediately!!

[Meanwhile...]


	Lionel Castle's cell - The 'Princess' & the 'collaborators'


[Ovelia is sitting on the floor near the wall. On the left of her is a
dish with food. Delita is standing in front of her. He looks at the dish.]

 Aren't you eating? You can't go on without food.

 ...

 No one will mourn your death. In fact, it should make most
	people happy. You won't die. Just eat the food.

[Ovelia opens eyes and looks at Delita.]

 I knew you were in with the Cardinal. If you aren't
	turning me over to Larg, what's your plan?

 Taking you somewhere you belong... that's all.

 So, you're using me, too. But you can't make me do whatever you want.

 You have no other choice if you want to live.

 What's that mean?

 It means....

[The sounds from outside interrupts Delita. Cardinal Draclau
and a man in lilac clothes comes in and stops near Delita.]

 So, she is Ovelia...?

 How are you, Princess? If you'd behaved, you wouldn't be here now.

 Hmm, she's almost too good a substitute for a Princess.

 Heh, heh... Mr. Vormav, she doesn't now yet.

 I see.... poor girl.

 What are you talking about?

 Listen carefully. You're not Ovelia.

 What.....?

 The real princess died long ago. You're a substitute.

 No, that's a lie!!

 It's not a lie. You are not Ovelia. Old Senators who didn't care
	for Queen Ruvelia, made you.... * 
	So someday you'd succeed the thrown, ousting the Queen. 
	They killed 2 older Princes making it look like illness,
	and adopted you as Princess. They all thought Omdoria was	
	to weak to make another son so you took the throne.
	However, Orinas was born. Even now, no one's sure if
	the Prince is really his son. Larg may have had "seeds"
	planted to make his sister the King's mother...
	In any case, the old men's plan was ruined.

 Liar! I don't believe it!

 Think what you will. Whether you're a Princess or not doesn't matter to us.
	What matters is that we have an ace in our sleeve called a 'Princess'... 

 What are you going to do to me? What do you want?

 Nothing. Just be a 'Princess' as you are now.

 My ancestors were Atkaschas! No one can control me!

 Then what? If Larg catches you, he'll kill you... right?
	We just want to help you take the throne...

 Who are you?

 We're neither allies of Larg nor supporters of Goltana. Just 'collaborators'.

 Vormav, let her calm down. Once she comes to her senses she won't refuse our help.

 Yes..... you're right.

[Draclau & Vormav walks to the exit. Delita is looking at Ovelia. Vormav stops and turns toward him.]

 Let's go, Delita.

[Vormav & Delita leaves the room...]
