May I talk now?
I think I'll come along.
Where to?
The camping trip.
Don't you need to teach?
It's just one class in the afternoon.
No, I don't think you should miss that.
It's to practice living alone out in the wild, after all.
It would defeat the purpose for me if you were there.
I'll keep myself hidden, and I won't interfere.
I might depend on you if I knew you were there.
I won't put myself in danger.
Okay?
In other words, I just have to make sure I'm not useful to you.
I never would have thought he could duplicate himself.
I don't do this often, so I can't share my vision or any other senses concurrently,
but once I'm in one piece, they'll be shared.
I'm not quite my full self without the other piece, so I'll stay at home.
Or so he says.
Chise.
I caught some fish from the river.
Oh well, I guess.
There's a lot of neighbors here... good neighbors.
You're right.
There are still a lot of old stories about them from Scotland and northern England.
They must have had a deep relationship with humans.
It's relaxing...
But I can't help but be a bit anxious.
Chise!
Haven't you got enough yet?
Start the fire already.
Okay, got it.
April, could you hammer that peg over there?
Okay.
Like this, and...
I can't get it to work.
You have to be quicker.
Shave off some more to be sure.
And start some good sparks.
You're amazing.
Could you teach me again tomorrow?
I don't mind.
I'll go get some water.
A horse?
No.
That's a fairy, too.
That's a kelpie.
Or, no... it might be an each-uisge.
An each-uisge?
Yeah.
They take reckless travelers and farmers on their backs.
Then they run into water, drown them, and eat them.
So don't get on its back.
I'm not getting on.
The river...
I'll be at the lake ahead of the river.
That took you a while.
Lucy, if you see a horse out there, don't get on, okay?
A horse?
It's getting dark.
Her eyes don't look like human eyes.
Are mages all like this?
I can't tell if those are voices of other students or of the neighbors.
Ruth and I are both here.
Hey.
This is supposed to be a practical for me.
Ah, well.
The birds are so loud.
Morning.
You're up early.
I always am.
Ah.
Bye.
She's still hanging onto that potpourri.
Why do you care about her?
Who?
I'm talking about Sergeant.
I don't know.
You don't have a reason?
It's not exactly that she's relatable...
But I think she could talk more.
What about you?
What about me?
You seem to hate Philomela.
Is that a bad thing?
No.
I just wonder if there's a reason.
I hate sorcerers.
Why are you at the College, then?
The fire's out.
While I wash my face,
can you set things up to reignite it?
Okay.
I guess we're going home tomorrow.
Yeah.
That felt like an instant.
I have to study as soon as I get home.
Do you like studying?
There's a lot I need to accomplish.
Unlike you.
There's something I need to do, too, actually.
I don't know when I'll be done, though.
Oh, yeah?
What?
Why don't you tell me what it is?!
Good night, Lucy.
Night.
Bathroom.
Why is my skin prickling?
Are you up?
I feel that disturbance, too.
Do you?
Lucy!
She's been gone for a while.
Lucy!
Lucy?
Lucy!
What happened?
Looks like her magic power is dried up.
Magic power is as important to us as life is to normal people.
She's in a bit of danger.
Can we not share any with her?
You could.
You have far more than enough.
Hold her close by.
Since her power is dried up, she'll naturally suck up yours.
Ruth, please tell Mr. Whoopi about this.
Got it.
We have to get back to the tent.
Since the day my arm changed, my senses have broadened even more than before.
I can see the outlines of things I couldn't see before.
Their movements, their whispers,
their touch... all of it became easier to sense.
So I'd let my guard down a bit.
There's more in the darkness that I don't know about.
A centaur?
No, that's not a centaur.
It's a sea monster that brings calamity to island and highland alike.
A nuckelavee.
A nuckelavee...
Chise, run!
Where?
That thing can't touch freshwater.
Freshwater...
The river!
The magic power isn't flowing naturally.
I need to look into this.
Why is it attacking us?
Who knows?
Rumor has it that it can't help but kill humans on sight.
It also wrecks crops by spewing poison mist.
Maybe it left the sea because nothing's come along in a while
that can see it like we can.
Then did the nuckelavee get Lucy?
I don't think so. That's not the way it attacks.
Chise! Elias!
Ruth!
Where's the teacher?
Couldn't find him.
I did come across these guys, though.
Is something wrong with Lucy?
Everyone, run!
Zoe!
It stopped.
You did it, Zoe!
Zoe!
Poison mist!
Everyone, get to the other side of the river!
What do we do, Elias?
There's nothing I can do in my state.
My original self could eat it, destroy it, or what have you.
But as you wished, this me can't do anything.
You're training yourself on how not to rely on me, aren't you?
I need advice, Elias.
Do you think the fairy and the lake past the river from yesterday would help?
I don't mind giving you advice.
That one would definitely make for a good ride.
Come. Come.
I shall ask for you.
I shall beg for you.
Come here, horse of the water.
I see. You want a ride.
Could you draw that thing towards the lake?
Very well. Very well.
Get on.
Ruth, take Lucy.
All right.
Chise.
I'm coming with you.
It's dangerous.
It's even more dangerous for you to go alone.
Rian, here!
Appreciate it!
It's coming.
I envy you, being able to run off without looking back, Rian.
My, what are you lot doing out here?
Sir, we have a problem!
It hates fresh water.
So if we lure it to the lake and dunk it in...
It might run away.
But each-uisge eat humans in the water.
So you need to get back to shore as quickly as you can.
Fresh water is poisonous to it.
Chise!
Let's get ashore.
Right.
You perceive...
You recognize...
You see behind the shadow...
And I will not spare you.
So long as you look into our side, we will...
Horror.
It must be destroyed.
Horrors must be destroyed.
You got out of the water.
I'll have to eat the one still in the water instead.
You will not.
Metal...
You never let me down, Isaac.
I'm not good at using sorcery on others, but I'm good at using it on myself.
Chise!
Rian.
Are you all right?
Yeah, I'm fine.
I can't eat you now.
Where's Elias?
Oh, yeah, why are you here, sir?
I'm dry.
Just what was that?
I would have died instead if I hadn't done what I did.
But...
I still feel it.
Um...
I can't give you my flesh, but...
Ack.
No more drunkards at night.
No more night travelers.
No one standing around.
No one has walked the night in a while.
How disappointing not to eat you.
Shall we get going?
We should.
Are you okay?
Okay how?
I've seen that face before.
In the mirror.
I didn't know what to do.
Yeah.
