I: In Endless Dreams/Script

Before Battle
(scene transition to Kana walking alone in the rain) (scene transition to Kana in the forest)
 * Shigure (as unlabeled narrator): I shall tell you a story of another realm that I will never forget. Children born during the war were raised in faraway Deeprealms. When the long war finally came to an end, these children were called home. But on that very day, a force of mysterious soldiers struck the Deeprealms. The parents fought valiantly to the last to keep their children safe. But one such child, Kana, found herself wandering, lost in every sense. Left alone and bereft to march through the rain... She had no inkling of the many turns of fate to come.
 * Kana: *sniff* *sob* Papa... I'm sorry... If I was stronger... If I could fight like you... Maybe then this wouldn't have happened...
 * Kana: Why... Why wasn't I stronger? *sniff* *sob*
 * Mitama: Hello. Why, you've been crying. Whatever for?
 * Kana: Who...?
 * Mitama: Lost and far from home / I meet a young girl weeping / May I tend her wounds?
 * Selkie: I dunno... It doesn't look from here like she's banged up.
 * Kana: Um... who are you two?
 * Selkie: I'm Selkie!
 * Mitama: And I am Mitama. What should we call you?
