She came to.
<sigh of relief>
HIKARU
I......
UMI
You went inside the Road of light that one of the attacking countries
created, and you fainted.
HIKARU
.... Oh yeah. There was a battleship inside the Road.....
CALDINA
A battleship....
That would be Autozam.
FUU
But....
Why was Hikaru-san able to enter a Road when Umi-san couldn't?

PRESEA
Yes. While I was giving you the medication, it hung on my hair...

EAGLE
Can I ask you to stop attacking Cephiro?
TARTA, ASUKA
NO!
EAGLE
<giggle>
Why are you invading Cephiro?
ASUKA
I'm gonna be the Pillar of Cephiro and make that country a happy place
full of candy!!
P.15
<Sanyun watches in suspense>
EAGLE
Full of candy. That sounds fun.
But what about Fahren, your country?
ASUKA
I'll make both countries happy.
[humph]
EAGLE
.... That is not possible.
ASUKA
Why!?
EAGLE
Cephiro's Pillar is not allowed to love anything but Cephiro. If you
were to have something that you care about besides Cephiro.....
P.14
EAGLE
.... that country will easily crumble.... like this.
The two princesses from Chizeta -- why are you going to Cephiro?
TARTA
To expand Chizeta's empire!!
P.15
EAGLE
Are you trying to make Cephiro into the agricultural and residential
portion of your empire?
TARTA
I have no intentions of putting pressure onto the people of Cephiro!
EAGLE
Even if you don't mean to, if you invade.... you will definitely end up
fighting with those that live there.
You would invade regardless......
...... It seems difficult to become the Pillar of Cephiro unless you are
willing to sacrifice your life for the sake of the country.
P.16
TATRA
And you?
What about you?
I have heard about the Pillar of Cephiro. That the Pillar is the center
of that world, the one that supports the whole country with Willpower....
That cannot be done unless you are willing to live and die with the
country.
I also know a little about Autozam.
The atmosphere of that country is too harsh for man to live in....
P.17
TATRA
Is the reason that Autozam is attacking Cephiro to figure out the Pillar
system, where all the laws of the world are controlled by the Pillar?
Or is it to make Cephiro itself the new land for the people of Autozam to
live in?
.... Cephiro is a dangerous country.....
Are you willing to die for that country?
P.18
EAGLE
I know why both of you are attacking Cephiro now. But I cannot retreat,
either.
I will wait three hours in our time. If you promise that you will not
invade Cephiro, I will release Doumu and Bravada.
But, if you say that you still wish to fight....

Are these fruits for the people in the residential district? Everyone is
helping each other.
That's really kind.

You are not completely well. You should not go out.
HIKARU
I'm all right, I feel fine!
UMI
YOU'RE NOT FINE!!!
FERIO
[Calm down...]
Why do you want to go outside?
The only thing outside right now is land that is ready to crumble.

Sometimes I go out with Lafarga to tell Guru Clef about the condition of

SANYUN
It is the promised time, Asuka-sama.
What will you answer to Autozam?
ASUKA
..... Cephiro is what it is now......
..... because it lost its ruler?
P.59
CHANAN
Yes. The Pillar system of Cephiro completely differs from the Emperor-
based ruling in our Fahren.
The Pillar supports all order within the country with the power of his
Will. You could say that the Pillar is the country.
ASUKA
Why did Cephiro's princess pass away?
CHANAN
I do not know. But I had not heard of the princess falling to an
illness.
Whether it be an accident or a will of the Heaven, or even a plan by
another person... it is only known that she disappeared suddenly one day.
ASUKA
We will go to Cephiro.
P.60
ASUKA
I will go to Cephiro.
To see with my own eyes.
Why the Pillar passed away. Why Cephiro is about ready to collapse...
SANYUN
.... Not to become the Pillar of Cephiro?
ASUKA
I love Fahren.
I love Grandpa {Chanan}, Sanyun, and everyone that lives in my country.
I can't possibly love Cephiro and only Cephiro.
P.61
ASUKA
I must rule over Fahren.
To be able to rule Fahren, I want to know what happened in Cephiro. No,
I think I need to know.
Am I still being selfish?
<pat pat>
CHANAN
You have grown up.....
<turn>
I will prepare for battle against Autozam.
<smile>
ASUKA
Sanyun...
P.62
ASUKA
We will be fighting Autozam. I'm worried that I'm putting everyone in
danger.
SANYUN
I believe what you have decided is the right thing to do, Asuka-sama.
There will be a lot learned by going to Cephiro. That is probably why
Chanan-sama decided to go along with your plan. He believes in you,
Asuka-sama.
We all believe in you.
I hope you will believe in all of us too.
ASUKA
Yup!

We're going to Cephiro!
TATRA
You don't mind being called invaders?
P.65
TARTA
We're going!
I can't turn back just because a commander from Autozam said something!
TATRA
Can I guess what you're thinking?
Even if we turn back now, Autozam will invade Cephiro.
Autozam has a lot at stake. They can't survive much longer with their
atmospheric conditions.
P.66
TATRA
Whether Autozam wants the cleaner air of Cephiro, or only their Pillar
system, they cannot avoid fighting the people that live there.
Cephiro is a magical country that moves everything with willpower.
But, because it has been peaceful for so long, it doesn't have an army.
It is not certain whether it can win against an enemy from another
country.
So you want to fight Autozam for them.
P.67
<Tarta swallows>
<Tatra giggles>
TATRA
You can talk to the people of Cephiro, Tarta. And you can give up if
they don't like your ideas about expanding our territory.
But that's not the case for Autozam. There might be bloodshed.

TARTA
Eh?

A man who is "prepared to die" is strong.

Yes.

himself that?

Those with strong Hearts that have gathered in Cephiro.
Asuka of Fahren.
Your Wish is to make a country that makes all your thoughts become
reality.
However, that Wish is not Strong enough for you to become the Pillar of
Cephiro.
You have within your Heart people and a country you love more than the
future of Cephiro.
P.124
VOICE (*******)
Tarta and Tatra of Chizeta.
Your Wish is to make Cephiro part of your kingdom for your parents and
for your native country.
However, your Wish is also too weak of Heart for you to be the Pillar of
this country.
These Wishes are too weak because they are not Wishes that you Grant by
risking everything you have.
P.125

EAGLE
Overuse of mental energy.
Autozam is a highly machine-based country.
We have changed mental powers into energy -- into Power that is used to
move things.
I seem to have used too much of my Heart.... I am like a mecha that is
about to run out of fuel.

I will soon fall into a slumber.
A slumber from which I will Never Wake.
HIKARU
Never....?
EAGLE
This illness culminates by stopping all bodily functions. But it is not
death.
The person falls into the same condition as a person who is asleep....
although he will never wake again.
I plan to put Cephiro into an eternal sleep......
I will move all inhabitants into neighboring countries....
All that will remain here will be myself, the Pillar. And I will sleep
forever with Cephiro..... so tragedy will never strike again.

HIKARU
Why....?
Why are you, the commander of Autozam, doing this!?

My Wish is to end the history of Cephiro with me.
P.153
VOICE (Creator)
Is it for your friend... Lantis, the Kailu of Cephiro?
HIKARU
Lantis!?
EAGLE
No, it is not.
It is true that Lantis risked his life to end the history of Cephiro that
can only be written with the sacrifice of the Pillar.
P.154
EAGLE
Because that was his Wish.... after he found out about the tragic ending
to the love story... between his older brother and the princess that he
guarded for so long.
But I don't want Lantis to die.
I don't want someone with eyes colored like the skies of Cephiro to die.
Someone with the eyes that remind me of a place where I always longed to
be......
.... I am being Selfish. I know that I am ignoring what he wants to do.
I am going to become the Pillar of Cephiro for _my_ Wish.

of this country.....

in Cephiro that I care about. And the people from the other countries in
this world.... Autozam, Chizeta, and Fahren...
P.184

we need to do, to be happy.
Maybe we can't do anything, but there might be something that we can only
see from the other world that you created, Mokona... Earth.

Cephiro is not for one person. It's for everyone that loves this
country.

We want to live with all the people we love and be happy... here in
Cephiro!

....Princess Emeraude loved Cephiro and everyone in it.
But perhaps she did not believe in them.
She tried to protect the people she loved by risking her life....
.... but she did not try to walk along with them, feeling each other's
pain.
P.188
VOICE (Creator)
Cephiro is a world where the Pillar rules over all.
The Princess could have abolished the Pillar system.
Still, Princess Emeraude wished for her own death -- and wished for the
preservation of the current system. An Unchanging Tomorrow that one
person determines for all.....
But the new Pillar of Cephiro wished for the Death of the System instead
of her Own Death.
Not to only protect the ones she loved by sacrificing herself....
... but to understand and help each other out through good times and bad,
to create a Tomorrow that Differs from Today together with the ones she
loves.

CLEF
I....
I believe that the Creator (Mokona) was wishing for a Revolution in
Cephiro.
PRESEA
Eh?
P.214
CLEF
If Mokona wanted status quo, then he wouldn't have placed countries
around it that had completely different environments.
And there would be no need for the Magic Knights to come from another
world.
I think the Creator (Mokona) was hoping for a Better World created by
seeing, feeling, and understanding something other than yourself.
The Mashin that Hikaru controlled was named "Rayearth".
In the words of Earth, it means
"glowing(Ray) land(Earth)". They taught us that.
P.215
CLEF
Maybe there was a wish there -- that all worlds will be full of Light.
<rustle>
FUU
Then....
The one that summoned us here again was....
CLEF
The only one that can summon people from another world in a Pillar-less
Cephiro would be the Creator (Mokona).
P.216
CLEF
The strong Wish to go to Cephiro again.... and the wish to change this
country, made by the girls from another world... moved the Creator
(Mokona).
Maybe He Believed that you would be able to bring Change into this world.
UMI
Of course... because we are Comrades! Right?
P.217
FUU
Yes!
UMI
We've started already--!

***** Character Profiles.
First page top: Rayearth
Rayearth, holder of the Power of Fire, is shaped like a red lion.
Hikaru revived him in the Fire Shrine, and he fought with her as a
Mashin.
As with Mokona, his true figure was not revealed in the main
portion of the story, but he represents Fire, Passion, and Future.
First page bottom: Selece
Selece, holder of the Power of Water, is shaped like a blue sea
dragon. Umi revived him in the Water Shrine and fought with her since as
a Mashin.
He represents Water, Kindness, and Present.
Second page top: Windam
Windam, the holder of the Power of Wind, is shaped like a green
bird with four wings. He fought with Fuu after being revived in the Wind
Shrine.
He represents Wind, Knowledge, and Past.
Second page bottom: ?
This Creator (Mokona) created not only Cephiro and its
surrounding countries, but also Earth. Disappeared into another
dimension with the three Mashin. Supposedly shows its true powers when
the ornament on the forehead turns yellow. But no matter how
authoritatively he talks, his body remains fluffy -- making it very
awkward.
