Narration (Citron)
‘Once upon a time, in a certain world, in a certain country in that world, there lived a lonesome man who had never known what it felt like to have a heart.’
Ness (Guy)
‘I wonder what ‘heart’ is. I wonder if it is only I who does not have one.’
‘I wonder if a person like me could ever find the place where he belongs.’
‘On this journey, I wonder if I will be able to find a heart and the place where I belong.’
‘Hmm? Who is that over there...?’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘.....’
Ness (Guy)
‘What is wrong, young boy? You seem to have a strange aura about you. Just what is your purpose for being here?’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘My name is Rino.... I am the spirit of the flowers.’
‘However it appears that all of the colours of my flowers have disappeared after the great wave of saddness....’
‘And who are you? Where are you going?’
Ness (Guy)
‘I am Ness. I am on a journey to find a heart and the place where I belong.’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘Oh, I see.’
‘Hey, do you think I could come with you? I would like to find my colours again.’
Ness (Guy)
‘If that is what you wish. We will walk together. We will journey to find my heart and the place I belong as well as your lost colours.’
Cyrus (Sakyo)
‘Hmm...’
Ness (Guy)
’Who is...’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘What’s wrong? Is there something bothering you?’
Cyrus (Sakyo)
‘Yes, I need to carry all of these fruits into town, but there are so many of them and they are very heavy.’
‘If I was to do it by myself, I would not finish before sun down. I am unsure what to do.’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘How about I help you carry some of them?’
Ness (Guy)
‘Yes, I can help you as well. If we all work together we will reach the town quickly.’
Cyrus (Sakyo)
‘Really? Thank you, that is a big help.’
‘That’s it. Thanks to your help we were able to make it into town. Thank you so much. As a sign of my gratitude, please accept some fruit. We can eat together.’
Ness (Guy)
‘Are you sure?’
Cyrus (Sakyo)
‘Of course. You helped me out a lot. Plus, the fruit tastes better when eaten with company,’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘Yes, it is very delicious! It’s so sweet and makes my heart feel warm.’
Ness (Guy)
‘Yes, it really does. For some reason this fruit tastes better than I expected... Strange.’
Ali (Yuki)
‘MINE IS THE BEST!’
Harry (Kumon)
‘NO, MINE IS!’
Ness (Guy)
‘What is wrong? Why are you fighting?’
Ali (Yuki)
’We both made our own toys out of wood.’
‘But now we can’t decide whose is better.’
Ali (Yuki)
‘Of course mine is better!’
Harry (Kumon)
‘No way, mine is!’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘Well if you ask me, I think you both made great toys.’
Ness (Guy)
‘Yes. Both are well made and very cute. It appears as though one could easily have fun playing with either of them.’
Ali (Yuki)
‘......’
Harry (Kumon)
‘.......’
Ali (Yuki)
‘.... Actually.... I think the toy Harry made is pretty cool.’
Harry (Kumon)
‘..... Yea, and I think Ali’s toy is really cute.’
‘Sorry for being so stubborn. I think your toy is lovely.’
Ali (Yuki)
‘Me too. I wanna play with the toy you made.’
Ali (Yuki)
‘Great! You guys made up.’
Harry (Kumon) and Ali (Yuki)
‘Thank you so much you two!’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘You’re welcome! I’m smiling now because I see you two smiling.’
Ness (Guy)
‘Oh. For some reason my chest feels warm and tingly. .... I wonder what this feeling is....’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘Oh no! It’s starting to rain.’
Ness (Guy)
‘Let’s get under that large tree for cover.’
Radim (Citron)
‘Hey, do you guys need some shelter from the rain?’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘Yes! Could we come inside?’
Radim (Citron)
‘Of course. We can have a chat together until the rain stops.’
‘Are you two travelers? I would love to hear stories of your journey.’
Ness (Guy)
‘Yes. Let us tell you about the town we visited the other day.’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘And after that something like that appeared in the forest! And then in the grasslands--‘
Radim (Citron)
‘Hahaha, that sounds fun. Seems like you two have had quite the exciting journey.’
‘You two are so friendly and kind. I am sure you will continue to have amazing travels in the future.’
‘Oh, the rain has stopped. Take a look, there’s a rainbow.’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘Wow, you’re right!’
Radim (Citron)
‘Well then it is time I should be going. It was fun talking to you two.’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘Thank you, you too!’
Ness (Guy)
‘Same to you.’
Radim (Citron)
‘So then, I bid thee farewell, good luck on your journey!’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘Thank you!’
Ness (Guy)
‘Thank you.’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘Wow, the rainbow is sparkling....’
Ness (Guy)
‘It is very beautiful.’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘Hey, Ness. I kinda feel like I finally found my colours.’
‘I can feel.... Happiness, sadness, surprise, joy.... All of those emotions are in me.’
‘And right now I have found my colours, my colours are all of me.’
Ness (Guy)
‘I can feel it too. Throughout our travels together, I made a lot of memories and I can feel all of those emotions resonating inside myself.’
‘I think this is what a heart is..... By traveling with you, I have discovered what it means to have a heart overflowing with emotions.’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘I was able to find my own colours. However, I still would like to continue traveling with you.’
Ness (Guy)
‘Me too. I would like to continue traveling with you.’
‘Oh, that’s right. I was also looking for the place where I belong.... Or well, a place where I would like to stay.’
‘.... Which is by your side. That is the place where I belong.’
Rino (Sakuya)
‘Yes!’
Ness (Guy)
‘Let us go, Rino. We have a long journey ahead of us.’

Citron
Let’s stop here and take a break~. Let me give you a hand, Sakuya.
Sakuya
T-Thank you. one-two...
Izumi
We really rode a lot.
Sakuya
Hmm? It seems to be what looks like a house in the middle of this meadow.
Izumi
There is, I wonder who lives there?
Old Man
[Citronia!]
Citron
[ .... Long time no see, old man!]
Izumi
Who is that..?
Guy
He used to be one of the caretakers at the Royal Palace when Citronia was little. I heard that since his retirement, he sometimes takes visits to stay at his villa here.
Old Man
[It is nice to see Citronia and Guy looking as happy as ever. It is not much, but I have a present for you. Please come and stay a bit.]
Sakuya
What is he saying?
Guy
He said that he has a present for us and is asking if we could stay for a bit.
Citron
Sakuya, director, do you think we could talk to him for a bit?
Sakuya
No problem!
Izumi
He probably has a lot to tell you, so take your time.
Citron
Thank you! We will be back soon!
Guy
My apologies, please look after Pochi and Chibi.
Sakuya
Leave it to us!
Running around the meadows on horseback... That’s something you definitely couldn’t do in Japan.
Izumi
You’re right, what a refreshing feeling.
Sakuya
Thank you Chibi, thank you Pochi! It was really fun!
Pochi and Chibi
hyuun!
Sakuya
Good boys, good boys.
Izumi
Wow, Sakuya, animals are really drawn to you.
Sakuya
Hehe, that makes me happy.
Oh, director, look at that over there! There are flowers there!
Izumi
Woah, how pretty. Hey, Sakuya, if you would like you can go over there and get a better look.
Sakuya
Oh, can I?
Izumi
Yea, we came out this far after all! I’ll keep an eye on Pochi and Chibi over here.
Sakuya
Alright then, I won’t take long... I’ll be right back!
Wow there are quite a lot of different types of flowers. I wonder what kind they are...
-- Oh.
I’m back!
Izumi
Welcome back, how was it? O-Ohh, wow... What a pretty flower.
Sakuya
Yea, right! I wanted you to see it too....
So I thought, why not bring this to you myself?
Izumi
Thank you! Wow, it smells lovely!
Sakuya
Right! It was so beautiful it caught my eye and then I noticed it smelled really good. I immediately thought of you, director, so I just had to show you.
Choose!
I have never seen this type of flower before
I’m so happy.
Izumi
Choice: I have never seen this type of flower before
Sakuya
Yea, me too. Maybe it’s a flower that only grows in Zahra?
Izumi
It looks very rare. Thank you so much for showing me, Sakuya.
Sakuya
I’m happy you like it!
Izumi
We should ask Citron and Guy about this flower too.
Sakuya
Yea we should, I wanna know more about it too.
END CHOICE
Izumi
Choice: I’m so happy.
Sakuya
I am happy that you are so happy!
Pochi and Chibi
Buru!
Izumi
Ahaha, I wonder what made them so excited.
Sakuya
Maybe they also want to continue having fun adventures with everyone.
Izumi
Yea, maybe. It does sound nice to travel to so many different places with everyone.
END CHOICE
Citron
Sorry to keep you two waiting!
-- Hmm? Oh, that flower!
Sakuya
We saw it growing over there. It was really pretty so I picked it for the director.
Citron
....... Ohoho so Sakuya picked it?
Sakuya
.... What?
Citron
In Zahra, we give that flower to someone when we are proposing!
Once a person smells it..... That person becomes your prisoner..... of love, it’s an aphrodisiac!
Sakuya
An aphrodisiac!?
Izumi
(Well I did smell that flower earlier, but for some reason I don’t feel like my
body has changed or anything...)
Sakuya
U-Uhh, really!? But director just smelled it earlier...!
I’m sorry, I had no idea when I picked that flower....
Izumi
No, I don’t...
Guy
I do not remember that flower having that sort of power.
Citron
Oh! Exposing my lie so quickly~! A piece of junk will always just be a piece of junk!
Guy
Exposing? You were joking, were you not?
Citron
Yes! A Zahra joke.
Sakuya
Uh... I can’t believe I fell for it.
Citron
Sorry~! Sakuya is so cute I couldn’t help but string him along.
Izumi
I don’t really think I could call that a joke... Citron..
