Meliodas died after having all seven of his hearts destroyed by Estarossa the Love of the Ten Commandments. {This sounds so weird from his name to the commandment, but yeah...}
Most of Britannia quickly fell after the Commandments could concentrate on their invasion.
Some humans were reduced to mere servants and would offer sacrifices to them.
Pursued by such people, Golgius, a former member of the Weird Fangs,
woke up safe and sound after a deathly scare.
By the way, have you heard the rumor of the Wandering Silver Knight?{I think this is meant to be a parallel of S1 ep 1 - the Wandering Rust Knight}
You mean the ghost knight in shining silver armor that's been appearing around lately?
Dear guests at table three, here is your apple-like-pie!
Elizabeth has gained some confidence in herself as of late.
Don't worry about us.
Yeah, don't worry about it and keep doing your best.
Yes! I will!
Really, really confident.
This is a tale of ancient times, from when the worlds of humans and non-humans were not separated.
The 3,000 year old seal has been partially broken.
The elite guard of the Demon Clan, the Ten Commandments,
seek to drown Britannia in blood and terror.
Against them stand the deadly sinners of the legendary band of knights.
They are the Seven Deadly Sins.

Episode 21
Warmth of Heart
Oh, so you're finally awake.
Th-This is...
Princess Elizabeth and the talking pig!
You look a lot better.
Yeah.
Which means that man is also here.
I have to get away before they realize who I am.
I'm grateful to you for saving me.
I hate to be rude, but I have to get go—
Please, have some. It's my specialty soup.
I humbly accept.
Just like Meliodas, Elizabeth has a talent for cooking bad food,
although hers are bad in a more conventional way.
Don't force yourself. It's okay to not finish it.
No, it's fine.
It's the kind of bad taste that I can tolerate now that I'm prepared for it.
That was a rude thing to say.
By the way, Golgius—
Hey, that's my face you're spitting in!
So you're aware of who I am.
I never forget the smell of a person.
Why did you save me?
I'm your enemy!
Surely it's not for some stupid reason, like not being able to leave a person to die...
even if they're your enemy!
What are they trying to achieve?!
You hit the nail on the head! {That's exactly it!}
I think Sir Meliodas would've done the same thing. {Original: I think that's what Meliodas was doing too.}
Even if we're alive, all that awaits us is another horrid fate.
There's nothing we can do at this point!
As long as we're alive,
we can still fight to protect people.
We can share each other's pain and suffering.
We're just talking past each other.
Your way of thinking is completely different from mine.
The food was bad, but I'm grateful for it.
Farewell.
I doubt we'll ever see each other again.
Good grief.
As someone who's lived in darkness, you shine way too brightly for me.
Golgius was in the bar just now.
He was all alone and seemed to be having a hard time.
All the other guests were also filled with worry.
But they were doing their best to press on.
So, please, wake up.
Everyone's waiting for you.
They're all waiting for you, Sir Meliodas.
And I, more than anyone else, can't stand to live in a world without you.
All right! Not a thing left to lick!
A job well done!
I'm so awesome!
What's this metallic smell?
I-Is that the sound of armored footsteps?
D-Don't tell me it's...
Wait, why am I getting a sense of deja vu here? {is deja-vu spelled with a hyphen? I never see it done like that.}
Is this the Boar Hat Bar?
It's him!
The ghost knight!
What's wrong, Hawky?!
Why, if it isn't Princess Elizabeth. You're all grown up now!
I didn't recognize you when I saw you at Vaizel, so I never tried making contact with you.
At Vaizel?
After all, it's been ten years since I last saw you.
B-But...
You...
Great Holy Knight Zaratras!
Long time no see, Princess Elizabeth.
I'm sure His Majesty is proud of the beautiful woman you've become.
Is this a dream?
Sir Zaratras, you...
Z-Zaratras?!
The former Great Holy Knight who got turned into a pincushion by the two Great Holy Knights ten years ago?!
Indeed.
That's right!
You see, Hendy treated me to a fish pie from the Yawn of the Black Cat.
It was freshly baked, piping hot, and oh so crispy!
I couldn't resist because I had just finished a night shift and was starving.
Just think about it.
Who would ever think that the pie was poisoned?
Great Holy Knights are human too, you know!
We get hungry just the same!
What?
Princess Elizabeth,
do you know of the Black Cat's fish pie?
Y-Yes.
It's really tasty. Both Father and my sisters enjoyed it a lot.
I know, right?!
This guy's an impostor!
What?
No, it's the real Sir Zaratras.
He's just like I remember him.
Seriously?!
It was the worst mistake of my life!
If only I hadn't fallen to the allure of the fish pie...
If I hadn't, I could've saved Dreyfus and Hendy from the darkness.
Sir Zaratras...
Here you go.
Thank you.
Even if it's only temporary, it would seem I've come back to life.
Was it due to Melascula's magic?
Then Elaine might still be...
A preposterous magic that is able to
amplify the vengeful thoughts of those with lingering attachments to this world
and return them to their body.
Wait, does that mean you came back to take revenge on the two Great Holy Knights who killed you?!
Precisely.
Or so I would like to say. That'd be too easy.
To be honest, the only grudge I hold is against myself
for not noticing that Dreyfus and Hendy were being controlled by a demon.
I guess that's my attachment to this world.
I'm still blaming myself over that.
Elizabeth, can I give this guy a good knocking?
His attitude is a lot more firm when it comes to work.
Does Gil know?
I'm too ashamed to face him!
What kind of father dies a sudden death then just shows up again?!
And what if, I don't think it's the case, but what if he doesn't recognize me anymore?!
He always got along better with Sir Meliodas than with me.
I'm really annoyed now for some reason.
Take me to Sir Meliodas.
I have some matters to take up with him.
Looks fit as a fiddle, doesn't he?
Perfectly healed.
No regular druid could have done this well.
And yet, this power is completely useless.
His heart still won't beat.
Sir Meliodas will never...
I don't know what to do.
Tell me, Sir Zaratras.
How about you ask him directly?
What?
Sir Meliodas is really an extraordinary man.
Back then, I couldn't grasp what the true intent behind his words and plans was.
The way he spoke and conducted himself was a mystery.
It was as if he was living in the distant past, lamenting the distant future.
Surprisingly, I've now begun to understand many of his actions.
Princess Elizabeth, take my hand.
A-All right.
You too, piglet.
Dorukimoto hekatokobe omunorea kieto.{this is the same druid spell that Zaneri used on Meliodas}{We used this in episode 8, and left it.}
It worked.
Where are we?
We were just in the Boar Hat—
What the hell is that?!
It's Danafor right after its destruction.
This is where Sir Meliodas lived with Liz.
This is horrible! I can't believe my eyes!
Father?! And Sir Zaratras?
This is a memory of the past.
They can't see or hear us.
Still, why did we come to this horrible scene?
This is probably the time when Sir Meliodas and I, and also Princess Elizabeth first met.
Sir Meliodas and I?
Look! There's a boy there.
Hey, you! What in the world happened to this kingdom?
But that's...
That's...
you as an infant and Sir Meliodas.
Why was I with Sir Meliodas as an infant?
I don't know.
He never spoke a thing about that.
You look badly hurt.
You should lie down.
I'll hold the child for you.
Don't touch her!
Don't try to touch my woman like that!
W-Woman?
Sir Meliodas...
Our king's magic ability, Vision, enables him to see into the future.
And a few days ago, he foresaw that the infant we met at the ruins of Danafor will become his third daughter.
So basically, he wants to adopt Elizabeth.
Exactly.
All right.
However, only on the condition that he hires me.
Oh, well, I don't think the king will need a babysitter.
That's not what I meant.
I want him to hire me as a Holy Knight.
I-I yield.
The bloodthirst I sensed in him was devilish.
But I didn't see even a hint of evil intent in his eyes.
He scared you though, huh, Zarry?
Somewhat, yes.
With my recommendation,
he became a Holy Knight charged with protecting the royal family, or more precisely, Princess Elizabeth.
You probably don't remember because you were very young,
but you were really attached to Sir Meliodas.
I was?
But soon after that..
What?!
Seven deadly sinners are going to become the protectors of Liones?!
That sounds absolutely preposterous!
Do not worry.
I've already finished the investigation and selection regarding that premonition.
Wh—
Who are you?
This king's premonitions are serious stuff, Meliodas.
Without that, it would have been near impossible to find the other five.
Which means that the other two are...
You and I, of course.
Very well! In that case, let's gather them as soon as possible!
It's time for the Deadly Sins to defeat the Commandments!
The Deadly Sins to defeat the Commandments...
Did he...
That's exactly it, Princess Elizabeth.
The Seven Deadly Sins were chosen to defeat the Ten Commandments.
Where are we going now?!
Look at that, your face is all red.
You're never drunk, but you're drunk now, aren't you?

It's been 3,000 years.
I'm so happy, I just had to drink.
I've waited 3,000 years for this curse to be lifted.
Curse?
3,000 years?!
What human lives that long?
Even the fairies and giants—
no, even legendary goddesses and demons— probably didn't live that long!
You're such a bad drunk.
If that were true, you'd be really awesome.
I mean, I don't think I could take living that long.
I'd either kill myself or have someone else kill me.
I tried everything.
But this curse just won't allow it.
What does he mean?
I guess he meant that the curse doesn't allow him to die.
A storm is coming.
The castle again?
Hey there, Elizabeth!
Sir Meliodas...
Can't sleep?
Can you see me?
There, there. You're a good girl, Elie.
Are you away on work tomorrow?
Yeah.
Are you going to come back to me soon?
What, is that what you were worried about?
I believe in you.
I believe that you'll come back to me.
I promise.
No matter where I go, I'll always come back to you alive and well.
W-We're back, right?
Are you all right, Princess Elizabeth?
I'm all right.
Sir Meliodas will surely come back.
He promised me he would.
How does it feel being in purgatory?
You sure got done in badly this time, Meliodas.
You have a bad habit of spending your free time peeping on people.
It's just that my faithful eye showed me everything.
Is that so?
Bound by the Commandments of Piety and Love, not even you could do anything.
Love
Piety
You just waited for death to come.
And that freed me from the effects of those Commandments.
There are two ways to end the effects of my Commandments:
to kill the one I've bestowed the Commandments upon, or to die.
However, thanks to the curse you put on me, I can come back to life again and again.
Ironic, isn't it?
Stop acting tough.
Is it fear or anger in you?
I can sense you trembling quite clearly.
Well now, I have no idea what you're talking about.
You still intend to keep the act up?
Not only can you not put an end to your own life,
but you, who was once known as the most wicked of demons,
have been turned into a useless softy for 3,000 years now by that woman.
And who do you have to thank for returning you to your current state?
Me, of course. It's because every time you've chosen to die and came to purgatory,
I've consumed the emotions that had sprouted within you.
Come now!
Satisfy my hunger and thirst once more.
I shall use those emotions as nourishment and gather strength.
And then you will be one step closer to becoming the most wicked of demons once again.
That surely brings you joy, my son.
Let's see you try!
The Ten Commandments are almost upon us.
Fear not, Brother.
I have assigned my elite forces to protect Castle Liones.
Ban will help us.
Okay!
My hand loses power as soon as I hold my sword.
Why? I can't use magic either!
What's going on, Gil?
Why can't we do anything when faced with these shitty demons?
I shall avenge Meliodas!
Give up on that already, Gil.
Shut up! Why are you here anyway?
Anyone who bares hatred in my presence loses all means of hurting others.
I am Estarossa, the one bestowed with the Commandment of Love.
Love?! What nonsense is that?
You killed the Cap'n! What love do you have?!
Does that mean we can't even walk towards him, let alone hold a sword or form a fist?
You poor things.
Let me save you from your suffering.
Why doesn't my Commandment work on you?
It's only natural.
Why would I hate those who are weaker than me?
All I feel for them is pity.
Such hubris.
Yes, that's me, the Lion's Sin of Pride, Escanor.

If I close my eyes, I can still feel that warmth from when I first met you

Return of the Sin
