00:14Riu?
00:19Riu?
00:21Are you done checking?
00:30Hmm. Very interesting. Yatsfusa, look at this.
00:38I like it. It should be very challenging.
00:41I'm happy we asked for Riu's opinion, then.
00:45Excuse me.
00:49Put this into effect.
00:51Certainly, ma'am.
00:54Hmm.
00:56This is the examination period for applicants to become apprentice court herbalists.
00:59I see. So it was today.
01:02What do you mean, I see?
01:03Let's not pretend you haven't been worried about this test for weeks.
01:10As I continue this path, I know nothing is certain.
01:15How will it look? Sound? Or even smell?
01:19The only thing I do know?
01:21I'll learn something new every day.
01:23Good night.
01:33Good night.
01:42Let's take a look.
01:44Good night.
01:49Look at this.
01:51What are you supposed to do?
01:51What are you supposed to do?
01:52Good night.
02:26æăăéăăăč ć±ăăăȘ ç§ăŻä»æ„äžăăăăă« ăăȘăăŻææ„ćŸźçŹă㧠ăăŁăš ăăŁăšă
02:55Once all the examinees have arrived, we will proceed to the orientation room. Please wait patiently until then.
03:02I'm nervous. Don't worry. It won't be much longer.
03:24I think that might be the same cord herbalist I saw at the pharmacy the other day.
03:29A compound for suppressing coughs? That's a good start, but he'd still need some rainbow leaf and cocoa grass.
03:48Sorry, sir. Forgive me.
03:50Yes, I will need some rainbow leaf and cocoa grass, but they're not ready to pick yet.
03:54I'll do it right at dawn when the medicinal properties are at their most effective.
03:58When they're at their most effective?
04:00That's right! I've heard of that technique before! And you know when?
04:03Yes, it took centuries to figure this out. By the ancient folk who lived in nature and off the land.
04:10Current medical literature has no category for it, but I remember because it's important.
04:15The people who spent time studying the actual plants knew best. I'd much rather learn my skills from them.
04:30I hope I get the chance to learn about living medicine here.
04:34Shiryuki!
04:36Zen!
04:38Your test starts soon. Think you're ready for it?
04:42Kind of.
04:43What do you mean, kind of?
04:50Wish me luck.
04:53I am the chief herbalist, Garak. Welcome.
04:56This exam will measure your ability to manage both herb gardens and medicine storage,
05:01as that's the primary work of a court herbalist apprentice.
05:04You will be responsible for a small medicinal herb garden in the castle,
05:08protecting and tending to the environment and plants inside the garden.
05:12After two days, there will be an inspection, and following, you will submit a report.
05:16That is all. Please read the documents for further details.
05:19Well, isn't she just a model student?
05:27How did it get so late?
05:44They're using aqueducts to make sure the entire garden is irrigated.
05:48I've heard of these, but I've never actually seen them until now.
05:52Such an efficient system.
05:57Oh no! Some mud got into the water!
06:03I thought I saw some lights on.
06:06It's not even dawn yet.
06:08What is she doing?
06:11Who's there?
06:16Who's there?
06:17Zen!
06:18Hey, Shiryuki!
06:20You startled me. What are you doing here?
06:23Wait! Stay where you are!
06:31Great. We're locked in.
06:33We are?
06:34Do you know who might do this?
06:35Was someone meeting you here?
06:37What? No.
06:38I'm in the middle of my apprentice exam right now.
06:42Interesting.
06:43He must have locked us in knowing that!
06:45Let's just wait.
06:47Whoever comes to conduct the inspection in the morning can let us out.
06:50Yes, but my being here would be problematic if they think I'm helping you.
06:56Hey, speaking of, was there a particular reason you came by?
07:03Uh, no. I was just in the neighborhood.
07:08Oh, I see.
07:11I feel like an idiot now.
07:13When did you first get here again?
07:16Yesterday.
07:17Did you get enough sleep?
07:19I took a little nap.
07:21Sometimes it seems like you're sidestepping the real question.
07:24Well, how could I think of sleep when I had the opportunity to be inside such a rare and beautiful
07:28garden?
07:34Is something wrong?
07:35This flower, it should be blooming facing upward from late at night until morning, so why?
07:41There's water flowing underneath it.
07:43There are no irregularities in its environment.
07:46Yet the flowers are wilting.
07:54The water is sweet?
08:02But up here, it's normal.
08:06So? What's the verdict?
08:08There are some toxins in this water.
08:10Toxins?
08:11And you decided to drink it?
08:14Uh, don't worry.
08:15It doesn't affect humans.
08:17Are you...
08:18Are you sure?
08:24Don't scare me like that.
08:26I'm sorry.
08:27Well, explain it.
08:29Oh, right.
08:30Of the toxins that medicinal herbs and plants can carry, one of them tastes a lot like honey.
08:35I think someone mixed it in with the water.
08:37I don't see the plant that makes that toxin, though.
08:41The water up top is clean, so it must be down here.
08:45What herb would have made that toxin?
08:56Hold on.
08:57This may be you're a shigure and not a keggy shigure.
09:00Huh?
09:06If the roots are sweet, it's yura.
09:12You're certain?
09:13Yes.
09:14There are two types, yura and a keggy, and it's hard to tell the difference until they flower.
09:18This yura plant was grown in the same environment to bloom as an a keggy would be.
09:24So are you saying it was actually planted in the wrong way?
09:27If in a foreign environment, yura will be unable to bloom and their roots will produce toxins,
09:33which would flow into the aqueducts from the soil.
09:36If this keeps up, the yura and the other plants will wither and die.
09:41Zen, close the aqueduct from here to the other side.
09:44I can dig these out and replant them all.
09:46That's all right.
09:47If I help you, it might negatively affect your test score.
09:51True, but I have to do what's necessary to fix this.
09:54Are you sure you won't get disqualified or fail?
09:58As long as he's a part of my path, I don't think I'll ever fail.
10:03If I stay on track, I'll be fine.
10:05You're my guide.
10:07I have the strength to do anything now, and that's all because of your help, Zen.
10:17Well then, how could I resist?
10:20I'll help you.
10:24I'll help you.
10:54Rainbow leaf and cocoa grass.
11:01It's the chief.
11:02Good morning.
11:03Good morning.
11:04Why are you in the garden, your highness?
11:07I'll explain it later.
11:09Shiryuki, what happened in here?
11:11I rearranged things so the yura shigurei would flower.
11:14It had been mistakenly planted as a kegi shigurei.
11:17You figured that out?
11:18Yes.
11:19And replanted the rest of the garden?
11:21Yes.
11:22I wanted to make sure they wouldn't be affected by the remaining toxins in the aqueducts.
11:26You did this in one night?
11:28Did you receive any help from the prince?
11:31Well, I thought it made sense.
11:32After all, some of these herbs just might save his life one day.
11:37I suppose that's a logical explanation.
11:40There was an examinee who was mistaken for a prowler last night.
11:44That person must have locked the door.
11:46Perhaps a competitor wants to eliminate Shiryuki.
11:50Perhaps.
11:50I can assure you this matter will be investigated thoroughly.
11:53I can tell you the person was wearing a long coat and had tied back hair all the way down
11:58to the waist.
11:59Thank you, highness.
12:01Shiryuki, please know there's a proper time and place for your friendship with the prince.
12:05Yes, I understand, ma'am.
12:07Hold on.
12:07It was my choice to come here.
12:09Prince Zen, your status affords you carte blanche to make all decisions without being challenged.
12:14All it takes is one word from you.
12:16Your friend could be accepted as a court herbalist unconditionally, with no further questions asked.
12:20She's too proud for that.
12:22Plus, if I did, she'd get mad at me and leave the castle grounds.
12:25And the last thing I want to do is make her angry.
12:28I'll take that as a compliment.
12:33Chief.
12:34Sorry.
12:35How did Shiryuki fare on the test, Yatsufusa?
12:39She has passed with flying colors.
12:43Well then, congratulations.
12:45Shiryuki, you have officially been accepted as an apprentice court herbalist.
12:55The examination was not just about testing your knowledge of tending gardens, but about Yura and Akegi, too.
13:00And if you knew the difference.
13:02It would have been enough if you had just noticed and wrote it in the records.
13:05But I didn't think anyone would actually replant the whole garden.
13:10Ryu's going to be in for a real surprise.
13:13Ryu?
13:14That's right.
13:15Our youngest court herbalist.
13:16He's the one who devised today's exam.
13:19The quiet one?
13:20With black hair?
13:21Indeed.
13:22It seems you've already met.
13:25Hmm.
13:27All right.
13:27Then we'll appoint him to be your supervisor.
13:30Great!
13:33Oh!
13:34Chief Garak, please.
13:36I'd like to ask your permission for something.
13:42The two of you are the only ones this time who have passed the exam to become court herbalist apprentices.
13:48Higata, please wait a moment.
13:51I'm coming in.
13:54This is Shiryuki.
13:55She's going to be your new assistant.
13:57She did an outstanding job on your test.
14:00I'm Ryu.
14:01Hello.
14:02If there's anything you have questions about, just ask him.
14:05Come on.
14:06Let's get back to work.
14:08Hi.
14:08I'm Shiryuki.
14:10It's lovely to meet you.
14:12Same here.
14:13Could you close the door?
14:15Oh, right.
14:16Sorry about that.
14:19Um, Ryu, sir?
14:21Please don't call me sir.
14:22In fact, you don't have to be formal at all.
14:25What?
14:25Pardon?
14:26I mean, but you're going to be my superior.
14:29I know, but I'm only a kid.
14:31It's just weird.
14:33Okay.
14:34I'll use your first name if you prefer that.
14:36Ryu.
14:38Oh, hey.
14:39Here.
14:40A gift.
14:42A gift.
14:50Rainbow leaf and cocoa grass.
14:52Picked at sunrise when their medicinal properties are strongest, like you said.
14:56You remembered that?
14:57Yes, because I was a little shocked by it.
15:00How do you mean?
15:01I thought it was an innovative and wonderful idea.
15:06I'll grind the herbs up.
15:08You put in the rainbow leaf first and the cocoa grass second.
15:11Sure.
15:13Sure.
15:14Sure.
15:15Sure.
15:20How can we help you today, sir?
15:22For some reason, I've been feeling queasy.
15:24I'm wondering if you have a quick remedy for nausea.
15:27Certainly.
15:28Ryu, please come in here.
15:30What?
15:36I can't do anything for him.
15:38He should go see the chief or someone else.
15:40Ryu?
15:43I'm so glad he left.
15:45I want no part of any concoction that boy's prepared.
15:49Why would you say something like that?
15:51Who'd want his help?
15:52His principal studies are plant poisons, and he needs a way to test out their effects.
15:57The only way he could do that is to try them on humans.
16:01Some plants must create toxins to help protect themselves from predators.
16:05And these same toxins are often used to cure sick people.
16:08Yes, but according to the rumors, there's a trail of victims.
16:11If you believe everything you hear, you'll never trust anyone or anything.
16:15Now, do you want help or don't you?
16:19Please excuse me.
16:26There's no need to get so worked up about it.
16:30Oh, you're being stupid.
16:34I'll go get the chief herbalist.
16:39What?
16:40Stupid?
16:42So, how's it going with Shirayuki?
16:46Your highness.
16:51She was angry at me.
16:54I guess I don't really understand people very well.
16:58But it's not like they understand me either.
17:01Seems like most think I'm just a dumb brat.
17:03The answer to this is really quite simple.
17:06If you want to know if she's mad, just ask her.
17:09She'll appreciate the gesture.
17:10She's a very straightforward person herself.
17:15For the record, I know you're not dumb.
17:17I just thought you might like a little advice.
17:20I've got to go to practice.
17:22See ya.
17:28Shirayuki, once you finish the patient records, please read this.
17:32It's the prince's medical history.
17:34I thought you might want to look it over.
17:37Thanks, but why me?
17:38Because out of all the court herbalists, you seem to have the closest relationship with him.
17:42It may help you deal with emergencies.
17:45Not to mention helping your resolve.
17:53Here's all the medication for past injuries.
17:55A scratch and a sprain from a rough sword practice.
17:58A bruise from falling off the castle wall.
18:01Why was he even up there?
18:09Zen at age 13.
18:10Poisoning symptoms and progression?
18:13A record of being poisoned?
18:16February 5th.
18:17Seven hours after administration.
18:19He broke out in a high fever.
18:21Breathing was shallow.
18:23Speech and conduct were normal.
18:24Remained stable for 31 hours.
18:27May the 11th.
18:28Right after administration, he had difficulty walking.
18:31Called for antidote three hours later.
18:33July the 1st.
18:3530 minutes post-administration, he began to run a fever.
18:38The stabbing pain's all over his head.
18:42I've been building up an immunity to poisons.
19:05Prince.
19:07Prince-en!
19:09Rio, what's wrong?
19:11I am...
19:12Hey, you okay?
19:14Yeah, but I just...
19:16I thought that I should come and get you.
19:18Your friend may be in trouble.
19:21She's crying by herself.
19:24I don't know why.
19:31You read the history?
19:34Yes.
19:35How did you know?
19:37It's about me.
19:38And I know you.
19:43Please just turn around.
20:06I'll stay until you're done.
20:08Okay, Shiryuki?
20:09Shiryuki, don't cry.
20:12All right.
20:19Are you still thirsty?
20:22How about some snacks?
20:28Ryu!
20:29Hey!
20:31Hey!
20:32Are you all right?
20:33Zen just talked to me.
20:35It seems like I might have scared you a little bit.
20:37I'm sorry.
20:40No, it's my fault.
20:43I really didn't mean to make you cry.
20:45I'm sorry I was being stupid.
20:47It's okay.
20:49Remember my name?
20:50It's long, I know.
20:52Oh.
20:54Yeah, I guess so.
20:55Very well.
20:56If you call me by my name, I'll tell you if I'm mad or not.
20:59Uh, no.
21:00I, uh...
21:02She'll appreciate the gesture.
21:04She's a very straightforward person herself.
21:08Sh...
21:09Sh...
21:10Sh...
21:11Shira...
21:13Shira...
21:14Shira...
21:14Ki...
21:17Right!
21:19Ryu, thanks for running here for me.
21:26Uh, yeah.
21:35Yurashigure.
21:37Isn't that the flower that was on the herbalist exam?
21:40Is Yurashigure your favorite of the medicinal herbs, Ryu?
21:44Uh-huh.
21:46Is there a reason?
21:48Because it's red and pretty.
21:50I'd like to see it again.
21:52Apparently, it's important to become more familiar with it.
21:56Is he jealous?
21:57Green-eyed monster.
21:59I don't mind taking you to see it again.
22:04Hmm.
22:05I learn something new every day.
22:08People aren't that different from flowers.
22:11In order to know about them,
22:13you have to embrace the bitter and the sweet.
22:15Both in them and yourself.
22:19That's how we know who we really are.
22:21And that's how we grow.
22:25It's about to just see?
22:27And that's what we know where we are.
22:29How are we always seeing now?
22:41Is that...
22:46Another film?
22:58See you next time.
23:26See you next time.
23:48See you next time.
