You're the only one I'm longing to see, now and always

There's only one wish I remember on rainy days

The shard of me that I left forgotten in your heart

Is it still there?

Sleeping inside a closed book

Pandora's jewels called "memories"

In a hesitation hiding a sigh

I was always watching

My eyes cracked and fell to the ground I was always watching

My eyes cracked and fell to the ground

They are quartz fractured into crescents

You're the only one who satisfies my heart

I'll always be waiting

Here in the rain

Do you really not remember what happened before?

Nope.

Nothing at all?

Nope.

Not a thing?

Nope.

I can't believe it.

But the fact that I fell into Enfant's trap,

and the fact that you came after me when I lost my senses...

I believe I understand those things.

So...

Thank you.

What?

Say it again.

No way.

Ow.

False War

SSS, I managed to survive the trap.

Yes, I'm fine.

I'm still carrying out this assignment.

Don't send any others my way for awhile.

Bye.

We have to seal the data on this, don't we?

Yeah. What's more, because I fell into the trap,

Enfant may have found out who you really are.

We can't turn back anymore.

Not you, and not me either.

Don't worry about it.

I'm just doing the job I was assigned.

And...

And?

No, it's nothing.

Say, Madlax.

What?

There's something I want to ask you.

Welcome back, Nahkl.

It appears you were able to meet her.

Yes. I found the girl who possesses Secondari.

She's still quite a young girl.

What's her name?

Margaret.

Her name is Margaret Burton.

I see.

I also met one other person who had the Gift.

Another one?

His name is Carrossea Doon.

He's with Enfant.

Enfant...

I see.

What is it, so late at night?

What? You say you saw Madlax?

I thought you took care of her on your end of things?

Please, tell me the exact circumstances in which you saw her.

She was wearing a dress and wandering around in the middle of the night.

She was certainly acting differently, just like you said she would.

But that was her.

That was the Madlax I know.

Does that mean she overcame it?!

Overcame it?

Never mind.

Also, Madlax had a cohort.

I sent you a composite picture.

What should I do now?

Do you want to continue the mission?

Go on standby for awhile for me.

Now it looks like I'll be able to pay you back what I owe you.

She may be too capable. That's something to think about.

It's me.

It's been awhile. I want to see you, Carrossea.

I understand, Mr. Friday.

Yellow...

I'm sure that's a kind color.

Miss.

Um, who might you be?

It's me, Miss.

Oh, Elenore, it's you!

What's going on? Did you become a student?

This is a disguise, since that woman may come after your book.

But you can't come onto school grounds without permission.

You're a sneak!

This is in order for me to protect your book, Miss.

If you would turn a blind eye this time...

Thank you.

You're welcome.

You don't have any memories?

I don't have any memories from before I was five or six.

When I realized where I was, I was wearing tattered clothes

and wandering around right in the middle of the war.

I don't even know who I am.

All I remember is an image of my father and the word "Madlax."

That's why I'm Madlax.

Just "Madlax".

What happened after that?

When I realized where I was, I was in an institution.

Apparently I was taken in by a man who calls himself SSS.

That man made you into an agent?

Yes. I do the jobs that he brings in.

I just repeat that over and over.

I get by without having to think at all.

I can keep following the father inside the image I have.

That's sad.

I don't remember, so I can't compare this to the way things were before.

I don't even know if I'm sadder now than I was before.

To me, things are very normal now.

Dad?

Dad?

Dad...

What an awful sound.

But...

I'm sorry I'm late.

No, you're right on time, Carrossea Doon.

According to your report,

the person who tried to hack into the nerve center of our organization

was an agent in Gazth-Sonika called Madlax, isn't that right?

That's correct, sir.

A crime committed by this Madlax person alone.

She probably acquired some information concerning Gazth-Sonika

while she was working as an agent, and took action.

Like you, that's what I theorized.

But that was wrong.

This is a pretty well-done composite.

I could tell who it was right away.

This woman belongs to the same company you do. Bookwald.

Her name is Vanessa Rene.

Didn't you have dim suspicion of it too?

But that's of no consequence.

My interests lie elsewhere.

The one who received the baptism of Firstari and overcame it.

Yes. Madlax knows.

She knows where Secondari is.

I want to know...

It looks like nothing's happening today, either.

Yeah.

I've made sure it's not too hot for you.

Was it hot?

No, I felt like someone was calling me.

I wonder who.

What are you doing?

What do you mean to do?

I want to know my past.

Stop...

No!

No! Madlax, stop!

Miss?

Is something the matter, Miss?

Miss?!

Miss!

Who?

Who are you?

Who are you?

Where am I?

Where am I? God won't forgive a lie like this

God won't forgive a lie like this

The light of the moon seen through glass

A war zone? The light of the moon seen through glass

The light of the moon seen through glass

Because I committed the sin of being untrue to my memories

I become unable to see even yesterday

I'm here

A child... I'm here

I'm here

That must've been a mistake from the beginning

Why? That must've been a mistake from the beginning

That must've been a mistake from the beginning

Hey, wait! That must've been a mistake from the beginning

Hey, wait!

Hey, wait! And sadness was fixed in place then too

And sadness was fixed in place then too

Wait, please! And sadness was fixed in place then too

And sadness was fixed in place then too

And yet I'm still crying

Longing to be clasped to that breast

I want to communicate my feelings just one more time

Inside a dream, all remnants of warmth are disappearing

It's all right if you're the only one

I want you to hold me

Telling me you're here, always, always

Dad. Telling me you're here, always, always

Telling me you're here, always, always

Dad! Telling me you're here, always, always

Dad! A moonlit night

A moonlit night

Gentle sighs

Atoning fingertips

I'm waiting

Wait! I'm waiting

Wait! I'm here

Don't go! I'm here

I'm here

Dad!

I believed in God when I was a child

Why do you disappear? I believed in God when I was a child

Why do you disappear?

Why do you disappear? The light of the moon seen through glass

The light of the moon seen through glass

Why? The light of the moon seen through glass

The light of the moon seen through glass

I just believed I'd fall in love with one person

What am I doing here? I just believed I'd fall in love with one person

I just believed I'd fall in love with one person

And that we'd comfort each other

You were here

It's all right if you're the only one

Who are you? It's all right if you're the only one

Who are you? I want you to be here

I want you to be here

I'm sure I can be happy, I'm sure

Who? I'm sure I can be happy, I'm sure

I'm sure I can be happy, I'm sure

Madlax. I'm sure I can be happy, I'm sure

Like clasping my arms around this disconsolate heart

I'm Laetitia. Like clasping my arms around this disconsolate heart

Like clasping my arms around this disconsolate heart

Where are we? Cold fingertips, always, always

Cold fingertips, always, always

This is a very normal place. Cold fingertips, always, always

Cold fingertips, always, always

It's all right if you're the only one

Normal? This place is? It's all right if you're the only one

It's all right if you're the only one

I want you to hold me

What are you doing in a place like this? I want you to hold me

What are you doing in a place like this? Telling me you're here, always, always

Telling me you're here, always, always

The truth is here. Telling me you're here, always, always

Telling me you're here, always, always

Things that aren't false, are here. Telling me you're here, always, always

Things that aren't false, are here. A moonlit night

A moonlit night

Gentle sighs

The truth is here? Gentle sighs

The truth is here? Atoning fingertips

Yes. It's here. Atoning fingertips

Atoning fingertips

If that's true, then why don't you know who I am? I'm waiting

If that's true, then why don't you know who I am? I'm here

I'm here

Because you're different. I'm here

Because you're different.

You're different.

I'm different...

I'm here

You're different. I'm here

I'm here

You're false, like this little one here. I'm here

You're false, like this little one here.

And so is the war zone you're in.

Miss. Miss!

Please snap out of it, Miss.

Miss...

Elenore, why am I...

You collapsed all of a sudden.

Do you feel unwell at all?

I saw a doll.

A doll?

A very important doll.

Madlax, that was a really reckless thing to do!

False.

A false war zone.

Snap out of it. Snap out of it, Madlax.

This is...

Yes. Everything is false.

Everything.

What happened to me?

Vanessa.

Are you okay?

Why are you doing that?

The data started displaying.

This data is...

Yes. Data on Gazth-Sonika.

The kingdom army and the Galza armed resistance group

that are waging civil war in Gazth-Sonika.

The balance of power between them is being controlled by Enfant.

No, not just that; they even control this country's economy and government.

Enfant controls this country?

Yes.

And Enfant has been continuing a meaningless civil war for 12 years

in a place that's basically their own country.

A false war zone...

That's surely an old song someone was playing on a water-colored lute

Deep inside your heart, inside your pain

Drifting in daybreak's sleepiness on the street corners Deep inside your heart, inside your pain

Drifting in daybreak's sleepiness on the street corners

When you were called by that singing voice

You were still in the middle of your journey

Following the tracks that loneliness left behind

I wonder if you can go it all alone

And get to the other hill on the other side

Watching the retreating back of a goodbye And get to the other hill on the other side

Watching the retreating back of a goodbye

The story told so that you can meet yourself

Now quietly begins
