00:01Wake up!
00:03Maythra lit, Pod!
00:04Aw, what now?
00:07I got to see Shell yesterday!
00:09Did you really?
00:12And when I told him that I'll be able to set him free if I'm successful at my job here,
00:16he said he would wait for me.
00:17He did?
00:18That's wonderful!
00:20I thought he'd say,
00:21Go away, I don't need your help.
00:23So this is a surprise!
00:26Having to be that girl's companion must really be unbearable.
00:30She might be making him do sordid things we can't even imagine!
00:33Um, what do you mean by sordid?
00:35Don't worry about it!
00:38Let's rebuild this place as quickly as we can,
00:41and then rescue Xiao Fenxiao!
00:43Oh, right.
00:49The future is no one.
00:52I've never seen any one.
00:55I don't know who any one.
00:59I've never seen any one.
01:03I don't know who any one.
01:11I don't know who any one.
01:12I don't know who any one.
01:18I'm going to run away than what I'm thinking
01:23The body, the body, the body
01:29I've lived in all of a lot
01:34If you live in a single heart
01:36If you live in a single heart
01:38You'll get hurt
01:40You'll get hurt
01:42If you move one step
01:43If you move one step
01:44The world will change
01:46I can't remember
01:50I'll show you
01:51I believe
01:53I can't believe
01:54I can't do this
02:00You'll be done
02:02We can definitely be done
02:03You would be one of the best
02:08I can't believe
02:13I can't believe
02:22A girl?
02:24And a fairy too?
02:26What's your problem?
02:28Hey, come out! I've never seen a fairy as small as you!
02:31Let me look at you, please, please?
02:32Easy, Nadir. That's quite enough.
02:34Ah! Looks like everyone's here.
02:39Aren't you going to introduce us, Elliot?
02:41I was about to.
02:43This is Anne Halford.
02:45Starting today, she'll be working here as our very own head of artisans.
02:50And...
02:53This fairy is her helper, Mithril Lidpod.
02:57Wait, Halford?
02:59The one who made a confection for the former Duke of Felix?
03:02One and the same.
03:04And, as of this year, she's become a silver sugar master!
03:08Are you serious?
03:09But why would someone so amazing work here?
03:12And she's a girl at that.
03:16So, Mr. Glenn approved this?
03:18Yes.
03:19Then who am I to object?
03:22Hello there.
03:23My name is King.
03:25That's your name?
03:26Well, I forgot my real name some time ago.
03:29I see.
03:30It's an honor to meet you, King.
03:32Huh?
03:33What's this?
03:34Huh?
03:36A handshake?
03:37Oh, yes, of course.
03:39A handshake.
03:44And my name's Nadir.
03:45So, will you come out now?
03:48No!
03:49A wise decision, little fairy.
03:52My name is Valentine.
03:54It's lovely to meet you.
03:56Nice to meet you, too!
03:58Oh, Orland's here.
04:00Perfect.
04:03So, now that you've met all five of our workers, we're at your service, Miss Head of Artisans.
04:14Let's see.
04:15Where to start?
04:17Oh, dear.
04:18I don't really have a clear understanding of what I've agreed to.
04:22Um, for now, please continue your work from yesterday.
04:26Sure!
04:26Will do.
04:28Hmm.
04:29Right.
04:35And what should I do?
04:38Perhaps you could get a little bit of the cleaning done?
04:41Leave it to me!
04:43In the meantime, I'll assess the situation.
04:48My, he's very talented.
04:52Mr. Langston, what sort of commission are you working on at the moment?
04:59Don't bother with the formalities.
05:01There's no need to say, mister.
05:03Oh.
05:05All right, then.
05:07So, what's that?
05:08It's an order from a shop owner.
05:11Apparently, it's for their son's birthday.
05:13I see.
05:14So, the son likes horses.
05:16I wouldn't know.
05:17I suggested a few ideas, and they chose a horse.
05:21Did they say why?
05:22Was I supposed to ask them?
05:24There may be something they'd like better.
05:27Or perhaps there's a specific type of horse they'd prefer.
05:30Honoring the customer's every whim doesn't always make for a quality product.
05:35We employ all of our skill to make what speaks to us.
05:39Otherwise, we can't create anything good.
05:42I always thought giving the customer what they want was the best way.
05:53It's lovely.
05:54The color is so nice.
05:55You don't have to get so close, you know.
05:58Huh?
05:59Oh, pardon me.
06:01Maybe Ann should start wearing men's clothes.
06:04Maybe I should punch you.
06:06It seems like he's uncomfortable around women.
06:10Excuse me?
06:11Yes?
06:12I've finished maintenance on the tools.
06:13What's next?
06:15Do we have...
06:16more orders?
06:17No.
06:18Only two.
06:19In that case,
06:21could you assist one of the other artisans?
06:23Oh, I could never do that.
06:25It's their work, after all.
06:27But it would be faster that way.
06:29It isn't right to interfere with another person's work.
06:33Huh?
06:33I thought it was normal for everyone in a workshop to collaborate.
06:38Uh...
06:39Is there something strange about what I said?
06:42So each of you completes the task assigned to you on your own?
06:46Well, yes.
06:47We're artisans.
06:48We take ownership of our work.
06:50Then what is the head of artisans supposed to do?
06:53Manage the supply.
06:55Deal with clients.
06:56And of course,
06:58you'll assess every sugar confection that we produce,
07:01to determine whether it might bring shame upon the page workshop.
07:05Did you say shame?
07:06We can't deliver work that tarnishes the name of page.
07:10Therefore, it's imperative that you have us make corrections if the product is lacking.
07:16But,
07:16if the piece is not an embarrassment,
07:19you will approve it.
07:20Then Mr. Glenn will give it the main workshop's seal.
07:23That's your job as head of artisans.
07:27That's very different from my experience so far.
07:31How odd.
07:33Hello.
07:35Nice to meet you.
07:37I'm Anne Halford.
07:39Oh, hello there, miss.
07:40My name is Dana.
07:42And this one's name is Hal.
07:44You two look practically identical.
07:46I imagine you must be siblings.
07:49Yes.
07:50Apparently, we were born from the very same tree at the exact same moment.
07:54So, in human terms, I believe you would say that we were twins.
07:57Oh, really?
07:58I didn't realize fairies could be twins too.
08:01Have you two had dinner yet?
08:02I would be happy to have you join me.
08:04Oh, no, we couldn't.
08:06This table is only for artisans and family.
08:09We all live in the same house.
08:11That's family enough, isn't it?
08:12No, not in the slightest.
08:14We're fairies, after all.
08:16Please, excuse us.
08:20What a shame.
08:23Turned you down, huh?
08:25Mr. Collins.
08:26I'm sure you amazed everyone on your first day at the workshop.
08:29So, what did you think of it, Anne?
08:33I learned a lot about this place today.
08:36The artisans make what they want, and they don't help each other.
08:40Everyone takes responsibility for their own work.
08:43That's how it's been at Page for 300 years now.
08:46Mr. Glenn drills that into all our heads more than anything else.
08:49It sounds nice in theory, except...
08:52Go on.
08:53I don't know, it just bothers me somehow.
08:57Hmph.
08:58Well, since I was the one who put you in this position, got some time?
09:05What's that?
09:06Promissory notes.
09:08You mean debts?
09:09Right.
09:10For about 10,000 crests with this land as collateral.
09:13Did you say 10,000?
09:15It's left over from the last, Headmaster.
09:17If it's not paid off this year, we will lose half of this place.
09:21Can you afford it?
09:23No.
09:24Which is why I went out to try and negotiate again today.
09:28Oh.
09:29By the way, don't tell.
09:30Don't tell Mr. Glenn?
09:32He knows we're in debt, obviously.
09:34But not that we're having a difficult time paying it back.
09:37And because of his illness, the lenders are becoming concerned about the future of the workshop.
09:43That's awful.
09:44You said earlier that something didn't sit right with you.
09:48I did.
09:50Well, I have opinions myself.
09:52Huh?
09:53None of us want to turn our backs on Mr. Glenn.
09:56But something's gone wrong here.
09:59I've given it a lot of thought, and I still can't put my finger on what the problem is.
10:05I'll pay off the debt somehow.
10:07As for you, Anne, just do what you think is best.
10:10Like the first, Silver Sugar Master.
10:11You keep talking about that.
10:13What is it you're trying to tell me?
10:18You're dining alone?
10:20Why not join the others?
10:22That's simple.
10:23I prefer to spend my time alone with you.
10:26And yet your expression looks lonely.
10:30I'm not lonely at all.
10:38Hold me, Shell.
10:45Carry me to bed.
10:51Now lay me down, carefully.
10:54Stroke my hair.
10:57Stay till I fall asleep.
11:00Please don't go see that girl.
11:03Stay with me, and only me.
11:23Stay with me, and only me.
11:24Stay with me, and only me.
11:24Stay with me, and only me.
11:24Stay with me, and only me.
11:24Stay with me, and only me.
11:40Stay with me, and only me.
11:44Stare all you like, nothing's going to happen.
11:51You scared me!
11:54I thought you couldn't sneak out or Miss Bridget would make you do more sordid things.
11:58Sordid?
11:59Well, that's what Mithra Lidpod told me, anyway.
12:02Mithra Lidpod has a wild imagination.
12:05She's a normal girl.
12:07She's not forcing you to do things?
12:10No, she's not.
12:12I'm so glad.
12:14I'm going to work hard.
12:16Just hold on.
12:26What's the matter?
12:28Nothing.
12:29Are you forming an opinion about all these?
12:34Orland's work carries a certain sense of power and strength.
12:37He's very quiet and a little hard to approach sometimes, but I can tell he cares about his creations.
12:46This one's by King, who seems like a sincere person.
12:50He's awkward around women for some reason, but...
12:54His confections still have such a romantic feeling to them.
12:57Don't you think it's beautiful?
13:01They've both done excellent work.
13:03But we've only got these two commissions right now.
13:06I wonder why business has gotten so slow.
13:10Hm?
13:11What's wrong?
13:13Nothing.
13:16Shell!
13:17I asked you not to see her again.
13:21You didn't ask for that.
13:23You ordered it.
13:24And I don't intend to obey you.
13:26Do what you must.
13:29You're saying you won't consider my feelings?
13:32You are my master now.
13:34And that means just as there's no expectation for you to consider my feelings,
13:38I can't think of any reason to consider yours either.
13:42Is that so?
13:44Well then, I suppose there's not a single person in the world who cares how I feel.
13:51In that case, you are to be punished!
13:55Wait!
13:56It's alright, Anne.
13:58No, Shell!
13:58I don't want anything to happen to you!
14:03So meddlesome.
14:13It's not here.
14:19Only I know about this hiding place.
14:23So who...
14:24Who could have stolen it?
14:26If you mean the wing, Mr. Glenn has it.
14:32What?
14:33Why is it with my father?
14:35Bridget.
14:37Listen.
14:38Someone came and placed a wing by my pillow.
14:41So I'll save this now.
14:42Going forward, the wing will remain in my care.
14:46Whoever left it with me probably feels that it's for the best.
14:50Why, father?
14:51You said it was alright until I get married!
14:53I can no longer tolerate the way you're acting.
14:57Locking that fairy in your room.
14:59Forbidding that he spend time with anyone but yourself.
15:02Really, dear.
15:02It's as though you've become obsessed.
15:07Bridget.
15:08I beg you to be sensible.
15:10Whose daughter are you?
15:13I don't care.
15:17Does this mean that you're my new master?
15:20Yes, I am.
15:21And your orders are to interact with Bridget in moderation.
15:25There is no need to respond to her every demand.
15:28But please, don't do anything that would hurt her.
15:30But Mr. Glenn, Shell doesn't...
15:32I will decide what happens to him now.
15:37You actually got your wing back?
15:39Not quite.
15:40It's just that Mr. Glenn has it instead of her.
15:42But you can go where you please now.
15:44What a torturous existence.
15:46Letting that miserable woman have her way with you all day and night.
15:49Spare me your moronic imaginings.
15:51Well, we have a visitor, so excuse me.
15:54Right!
15:57It's been quite some time, Mr. Radcliffe.
16:00Mr. Radcliffe?
16:01And Keith?
16:02I'm glad you're faring better than the rumors would suggest.
16:06Oh, and you've employed a new silver sugar master.
16:10This is our head of artisans, actually.
16:14Judging by the timing of her acceptance here, are you taking part in the selection for the Holy Beginnings Festival?
16:22Selection?
16:22Of course not.
16:23My father rejected it.
16:26I see.
16:27I had a suspicion that that might be your answer.
16:30Huh, yes.
16:31And Powell's son is here with me as well.
16:34My name is Keith, sir.
16:35I've heard talk about you.
16:37They say you've become a great artisan.
16:41And I'm...
16:43Sorry.
16:44There's no reason to be.
16:46You chose your path.
16:49Keith.
16:52I was surprised to see you.
16:54Mr. Radcliffe didn't give me much notice.
16:57But I was wondering how you've been doing.
16:59Have you had any trouble?
17:01And how are things with Shell?
17:03Oh, we're managing.
17:05What about with you?
17:06How are Cat and Jonas lately?
17:08Actually, Mr. Hingley has returned to his own shop.
17:12Sadly.
17:13No one's been able to get in touch with Jonas.
17:16He never went back to his old hometown.
17:18Oh, is that so?
17:20By the way, Keith, can you tell me about the selection for the Holy Beginnings Festival?
17:25It's part of the New Year's celebrations.
17:28As you know, they set out sugar confections in the Church of St. Louis and Belle.
17:32Workshops create the sample pieces for it.
17:35And one of them is selected to produce the work that year.
17:38Oh, I see.
17:40It's a great honor to be picked.
17:41And if the school successfully delivers all the pieces, the kingdom's religion awards 10,000 crests.
17:48Then, naturally, that school becomes popular and more commissions come in.
17:53Oh, it looks like she has company.
17:55Her lover.
17:56Nadir.
17:57It's nothing of the sort!
17:58Don't say such awful things to him!
18:01Oh, there's nothing awful about that.
18:07I'm Keith Powell of the Radcliffe workshop.
18:09Oh, so you're him?
18:13Yes, I understand.
18:14Feel free to stay, then.
18:15We should go.
18:17Hmm?
18:18But, well, um, bye!
18:23Why'd they rush off?
18:25They had to, because from their perspective, I'm a traitor.
18:30What do you mean?
18:31My father became the Silver Sugar Viscount while he was with the Page workshop.
18:36It really invigorated this place.
18:39So, after he passed away, naturally everyone assumed that I would come to Page as he had done.
18:45But in the end, I chose the Radcliffe workshop.
18:48And then, the rumor went around saying Powell has given up on Page.
18:54That caused the artisans who worked here to begin transferring to other schools all at once.
19:02That's just terrible.
19:03But, the truth is, I hadn't given up on this place.
19:09If I'd come here, I would have been affected by my father's influence.
19:13I didn't want to follow in his footsteps.
19:16That was the only reason.
19:17I endured it while he held his position.
19:20But even still, after he died,
19:22I resented the idea of being seen as the son of Edward Powell.
19:26The name Keith Powell means something on its own.
19:31Don't worry.
19:34It's not your fault that the Page workshop ended up this way.
19:38And everyone here knows that.
19:40But their feelings haven't caught up yet, that's all.
19:44Given some time, that resentment will go away.
19:51Thank you, Anne.
19:52Truly.
19:54If we can turn this place around,
19:57then maybe Keith will stop blaming himself,
20:00and the artisans will accept him again.
20:02I have to succeed.
20:04Keith!
20:05It's time.
20:07Right!
20:08We're leaving so soon?
20:10I wonder if Mr. Radcliffe is worried.
20:13The selection's only half a month away.
20:15The selection?
20:17Oh, wait, that's it!
20:20Oh, wait, that's it!
20:22Thank you so much!
20:24Of course.
20:25I'm not too certain what I did for you.
20:27But still, you're very welcome.
20:30Yes!
20:31If we win, more people will notice us!
20:34And we'll get 10,000 crests!
20:36What Mr. Collins said,
20:38and the things that were weighing on my mind,
20:41it could be...
20:43I have a request.
20:45I would like for our workshop to take part
20:47in this year's festival selection.
20:49If we do,
20:50it might help us return to our former...
20:51No.
20:52Huh?
20:54We will not participate.
20:56Huh?
21:00But, sir...
21:21We will not participate.
21:32The wind blows up, and when we meet the color of the color, we warm up.
21:41We're surrounded by the kindnesses, surrounded by walking.
21:48We're not alone, so I want to look for it.
21:55We're not alone, so I want to look for it.
21:59We're not alone, so I want to look for it.
22:11We're not alone, so I want to look for it.
22:17I'm here.
