(North America) Based on the manga series by: Tanaka Yoshiki Character Design: Kamimura Sachiko Director: Hamatsu Mamoru Screenplay: Miyashita Tomoya, Takada Kaori Producers: Kazama Yasuhisa, Kato Nageteru English Version Executive Producer: John O’Donnell Translation by: Pamela Ferdi, William Flanagan Episode three begins with more Palsian soldiers and noble warriors joining Arislan at Peshawal. Arislan wants to free all the slaves of Palse despite Narsus’s advice that retaking Ekubatana should be the prince’s first priority. While Arislan’s army of 110,000 men prepares to march, the Lusitanians hurry to repair Ekubatana and prepare for Arislan’s attack. King Innokentis II of Lusitania is a sorry excuse for a king, and most of the decisions are made by his younger brother, Prince Giskarl. Another 100,000 Lusitanian soldiers are expected to arrive in Ekubatana. Prince Giskarl also orders the death of the Lusitanian religious leader, Jon Bodan, to prevent any meddling of the prince’s plans to rule Greater Lusitania by himself. Under Prince Giskarl’s orders, Silvermask attacks Castle Zable, killing Jon Bodan’s personal guard but Bodan escapes. Though Silvermask is working for Prince Giskarl, he has plans of his own to complete his revenge against the royal family of Palse. Arislan learns that Silvermask is his cousin Prince Hermes, son of Osiris who was king before Andragoras. Meanwhile, an old acquaintance of Prince Hermes, Princess Ilina of Maryum, is searching for him. While docking at the northern Port of Dairam, her ship is attacked by a Lusitanian batallion. The princess is rescued by former Baron Marshal Kubard, and the mountain bandit Melain. Melain promises to be her guide and help her find Prince Heremes. In May of 321, Arislan leaves Peshawal and marches his army east on the Great Road towards Ekubatana. Through superior military tactics, Arislan’s army takes the first Lusitanian outpost on the Great Road, Castle Chasume.
