PERCIVAL :
( My mother always told me :
“When I stop talking to you, it's because I want you to think about what you’ve done.”
I often have a hard time recognizing when she’s mad at me.
But the moment she falls silent, I can tell. )
Mother?
I’m going hunting, do you want me to drop by the village?
[ Percival's mother continues to work in silence. ]
PERCIVAL :
I’ll…
go and see what Neste thinks.
( I have a hard time understanding others.
What they think…
What they expect of me…
My mother says that's how everyone feels.
That we can never truly understand one another.
It makes me wonder how she expects me to understand her
when she holes herself up in silence. )
NESTE :
Hey, young master!
PERCIVAL :
Ah, Neste! I almost forgot⎯
NESTE :
Where are you going?
PERCIVAL :
Hunting, of course.
Wait, are you not ready?
NESTE :
(sigh)
I knew it, you didn’t listen to a word I said this morning.
I can’t come with you, my husband hurt himself harrowing the fields yesterday.
PERCIVAL :
Ah… ah, yes, sorry…
NESTE :
You’ve got to take your head out ofthe clouds a bit more often, young master.
PERCIVAL :
Yes, I’ll have to focus not to forget about the game entirely.
NESTE :
You don’t mean to leave all by yourself, do you?
Her ladyship would lose her mind with worry!
PERCIVAL :
I know these woods.
Everything’s going to be okay, Neste.
( My mother says there's no point in hunting
because we already keep livestock
and that I should show more gratitude to our peasants for their hard work.
But when I see Neste work so hard and hurt herself… )
Hmm, it's already four or five. Yes, I’d better go home soon.
( I wonder
Do I really have the right to stop at being grateful? )
Ugh, I forgot to ask Neste if I should stop by the village.
( Well, today hasn’t been a very successful day. Looks like the deer have migrated already. )
?? :
Stop it.
PERCIVAL :
( Huh? )
?? :
Hunting the white stag is a terrible idea.
PERCIVAL :
( Huh?? )
?? :
Its presence alone indicates an entryway, a path to the Otherworld.
Unless you’d like to get lost in there, I’d recommend you don’t mess with it.
PERCIVAL :
[more confused percy noises]
( Who… ?
The Otherworld?
What?! )
?? :
Look closely.
It's already crossed the river and is heading for the Otherworld.
PERCIVAL :
All I see is a white stag.
?? :
But it has seen your potential.
It heralds great changes for those who encounter it.
PERCIVAL :
( Great changes? )
And you… ?
( I’ve never seen anyone dressed like that. )
Who are you?
?? :
Well, you could say…
That I too am a white stag.
I warn those I encounter of what's coming their way
and many things are coming your way.
Opportunities,
great deeds,
failures,
sorrows,
I don’t see everything,
but your future is promising.
You have an important role to play in all of this, Percival.
PERCIVAL :
I
don’t get it.
?? :
No one can claim to understand it all.
It confuses me as well, sometimes.
But don’t worry,
everything should fall into place soon.
Well,
if you live to see tomorrow, that is.
[ birds chirping ]
PERCIVAL :
( What…
What just happened?
My mom says there are strange folks in the woods
but that some are also fay,
and I have no idea which one he was.)
( That said, he knew my name, and he disappeared all of a sudden. )
( Everything will make sense…
…if I live to see tomorrow? )
( My mother told me
that nothing is without meaning.
Whatever happens to you, you had it coming.
But
do I really deserve to die here? )
( What…
What is that? )
?? :
Galahad, you're up!
GALAHAD :
I've got it, sir!
?? :
Perfect. Now, stay back.
GALAHAD :
Got it!
?? :
Those markings should disappear soon.
It didn’t last very long…
GALAHAD :
Maybe it was already dying?
?? :
At any rate, well done.
Cloth, please.
GALAHAD :
What's our next step?
?? :
We'll go back to the villagers
and ask them if⎯
PERCIVAL :
Um, excuse me?
( My mother told me… )
Are you…
(… if something looks like a miracle… )
…angels?
( … it probably is one. )
