Commander, a sword!

Over here, too!

Run!

So sleepy...!

It's been three days...

Don't try and stop me, I'm going to sleep...

If you sleep, you'll die.

You must not fall asleep, Master!

Nooo!

So beautiful.

And... so sleepy...

Melt-sa...

Coopa!

You mustn't...

...step on... them...

Everyone...

Don't...!

Sea slugs... Babylim sea slugs...

Yummy, yummy.

Neeba...?

That was a close call.

If you had stayed asleep, you would have been food for the Mocomocos and sleep mushrooms.

So there are some things even you don't like, Coopa-san?

She'd have been better off eaten.

Sea slug sea slug...

Seeeea slug!

You have it rough, too.

S- S- S- Seaslug...

Forgive my rudeness in spite of your saving me.

It's natural to be scared. Don't worry, don't worry.

You should worry!

Yeah, yeah...

Doesn't it look tasty?

Hot! Hot! Hot! Ah!

Do you not like it?

It's great.

Babylim seas slugs as the secret ingredient is especially good.

Thanks for saving us. But I...

Enough.

The Uruk Army is so fired up, I can't even get close.

And of all things, it's One-Wing.

At any rate, we can't proceed any further without killing it.

The other parties have adopted a wait-and-see attitude.

A wise decision.

Dragon?!

We should leave it alone.

You're kidding me! You're the "Dragon Slayer," aren't you?

Plus, if we all work together...

Look here!

Neeba lost all of his party members to that Dragon, so he...!

Fatina.

That Dragon cannot be killed.

Not even by the Uruk Army...

Would you bring your friends into a battle like that?

So you're saying all those soldiers are expendable?

Our goal is not the Dragon.

When faced with an unavoidable battle, I will choose the safest method.

After One-Wing is exhausted from fighting the Uruk Army, I will kill it.

You were always right, Neeba.

But no matter how right you may be, all those people shouldn't have to die!

Just you watch! I'll convince all of them!

Guardian squad, ready!

Drive piles!

Drive!

It's begun.

Ok.

The first line has been breached!

The target is trampling the Guardian squad.

It is burning down the attack squad, and continuing to invade!

Impossible!

The second line has been breached!

Sir Kelb, orders?

General!

Valkstorm squad, advance!

I shall go myself.

Yar, Uruk! Dey, Uruk!

I am a warrior from Larsa, Jil, son of Marka!

I must speak with General Kelb.

Get out of the way!

That sword...

So what does this "son of Marka" want?

If the Uruk Army tries to fight on its own, it will only increase its casualties!

What are you saying?!

You should put trifles aside, and join with the climbers to defeat the fearsome Dragon!

Guards!

No?

You're ...the lieutenant?

I shall place my trust in your blade.

Use that to gather as many as you can.

I will!

I am the warrior, Jil!

Wha?! What the...

Sweet! I win!

Damn it, kid!!

The time has come for us climbers to show our strength!

We must work together and swing the hammer of justice at the fearsome Dragon that stands in our way!

He isn't even listening...

Climbers who are brave enough shall receive a reward from Lieutenant Ethana of the Uruk Army!

Why didn't you say so sooner?! How much?

One gold coin!

You can't even buy a decent spear with that.

Shoo, shoo.

In the past, King Gilgamesh faced his arch-nemesis Druaga all by himself!

Compared to that, a Dragon is...

Umm... Are you listening?

Ahh, I'm so tired.

Seventeen is the turning point for one's skin.

Sister, you're breaking out.

I-It's a pimple.

I'm going to sleep!

Me too.

Good night.

I'm tired too, you know. hey, I'm talking to you!

Jil-san is?

I have never seen Jil-sama so desperate before.

He always seems desperate to me...

Ishtar-sama once said...

What's this, now?

"You wish to reach the summit...

Stand firm, and do not make light of the grass, the pebbles, and the earth...

All of those things lead to the faraway summit."

So if we avoid the Dragon, we fail as Climbers?

Yes, for we are all brothers and sisters.

They say that happiness is three steps forward and two steps back.

And that's what a Climber is.

I don't get it all...

I shall accompany you.

Drive piles!

Please, listen to me!

If we defeat the Dragon, we might be able to meet King Gilgamesh!

And do all sorts of things with Red Knight and Black Knight,

and even the Princess and the Innkeeper...

Ahmey...?

My, what charming armor.

What is your name, hero?

Touge...

My name is Ambu!

Touge-sama and Ambu-sama.

Would you be willing to fight the Dragon with me?

Kaaya...

Your luck will run out soon enough.

Make it stop!

I win.

Hurry up and get ready.

Wait a minute, scorpion girl!

Ahmey...

Now then, fellow Climbers, do you like Dragons?

Ever since the ancient times of King Marduk,

Dragons meant getting rich quick...

Getting rich quick meant Dragons!

Never heard of it!

Oh my, what a shame!

As today is a fine day for climbing, and I am in an extremely good mood...

I bring all of you gathered here today special information on how you can all make a profit!

As you can see, this is a scrawny boy.

This is Boy A, who has no special characteristics whatsoever.

But, what have we here?

Boy A just happened to find his way into a party,

And defeated a Dragon they just happened to encounter,

Earning himself a share of 200 gold coins!

I could buy a shiny new spear...

200 gold coins...

Hmm... that could help to restore my fortune.

Gorgeous!

There are no useless parts on a Dragon.

The bones and thick hide are greatly sought after in Meskia.

Even at the Cliff of Flames, if you build a tent from the wings,

You will be as cool as if you were in Garu's sky garden.

Freshly removed scales are perfect for facial masks.

Like the Dark Yellow Slime, they are extremely popular for smooth, silky, beautiful skin.

Beautiful skin? Did she say beautiful skin?

I'm going to slay the Dragon.

Me too!

This is our once in a lifetime chance, while the Uruk Army is having trouble!

If we beat the Dragon, we'll be filthy rich!

Right, bro?

Stop that! The house of Fereydun is a family of beauty!

I'm coming for you, One-Wing!

Wow... So many...

I don't believe it...

He really rallied them together.

Are you sure about this, Neeba? The newcomer might steal your "Dragon Slayer" title.

Jil doesn't know the Dragon's weakness.

Did we kill it?

Not yet! Stay sharp!

Guardian squad! Incoming!

Magic barrier!

Wounded to the rear!

Mage troops, do not falter!

Buy some time!

Sir Kelb...

We'll retreat to the Valley of Bartvan.

Valkstorm squad, advance!

A lightning shot!

They're close!

Undisciplined lizard!

I am Kelb, son of Gatolb!

Sir Kelb!

That's the Dragon?

Oh my, he's preoccupied with all the food in front of him.

This position is good.

We can do reliable damage from here.

We will now provide backup for the Uruk Army.

Don't be afraid! Let's show them the strength of Climbers!

Follow Jil!

Beautiful skin!

Silky smooth!

Charge!

Hands off!

He made it...

Get down, you're in my way!

What?

Gotcha!

The Dragon is ours!

My scales!

So many to choose from!

Now, pull!

Tons of Babylim gold coins!

It has already begun!

It's all going as I calculated.

Yes, yes. I suppose you calculated getting lost, as well.

Number 7 Lighting Rod.

Downhill shot!

Fore!

They all missed.

Number 3 Rod for the finish!

We are the ones who will be finished off!

Aim for the flame sacs, Jil!

Those are the Dragon's weakness!

Neeba...!

I have you!!

Oh, crap!

Jil-sama!

Rest in peace, Jil.

I will overcome your loss, and grow even stronger.

Jil-san...

Sir Kelb...

Jil-sama!

Jil... I will never forget you...

...for all eternity...

I would like to forget you for all eternity, Master.

Beautiful Slime skin!

Beautiful skin! Silky smooth!

This reeks. Does this stuff actually work?

Yar, Jil! Dey, Jil!

Huh? Me...?

Don't be bashful. This applause is for me.

Since when have you become Jil-sama?

Applause and admiration are all mine!

"Because I didn't use it" huh...

Ethana, you in here?

Y-Yes.

What was that boy's name, again?

I believe it was Jil. Jil, son of Marka, from Larsa.

I see. Jil, huh?

Yeah, Larsa's a great place. The fish is especially good!

Sir Kelb!!

Jealous?

Your party was wiped out by that Dragon, wasn't it?

What are you saying?

You lost your friends, but he saved many lives.

Let's head out, Neeba the Dragon Slayer.

Don't call me that.

Sure!

He'll become even stronger.

Someday, he'll be beyond your reach.

Yar, Jil! Dey, Jil!

Endo here.

I made this game a very long time ago.

I'm surprised you were able to beat this in an age without the Internet.

Next episode: "Tower of Legend"

I hear Jil-kun is going to take on the Tower of the past.
