:08:00
A poison within him goaded him on,
rotting his flesh...
:08:04
...drawing evil as he ran,
making a monster of him.
:08:11
Prince Ashitaka...
:08:13
Show your right arm.
:08:24
Oracle!
:08:26
Prince Ashitaka, are you steeled
to gaze upon your fate?
:08:31
Yes. I was resolved
when I let my arrow fly.
:08:37
The scar will seep into your bones
and you will die.
:08:45
Can nothing be done?!
:08:47
He was defending the girls,
and the village!
:08:51
Can we but sit and wait?
:08:53
You cannot change your fate.
:08:56
You can, though, rise to meet it.
:09:00
Look.
:09:04
This was inside the boar's body.
:09:07
He was in agony. It shattered
his bones, tore at his entrails...
:09:12
What else could
have made him that way?
:09:17
Calamity has befallen
the land of the west.
:09:21
Journey there, and see
with eyes unclouded.
:09:26
There might be a way
to lift the curse.
:09:32
More than 500 years have gone since
the Mikado drove us into this land.
:09:38
Now we hear how his power fades...
:09:42
...and the fangs of his Shoguns
are broken.
:09:46
But the blood of our tribe
likewise grows thin.
:09:51
And now, bitter fate...
the youth who was one day to lead us...
:09:56
...must journey far to the west.
