Tales of Vesperia – Ryuu Tsukai no Chinmoku v1p1c4

This is a translation of the Tales of Vesperia novels: The Silence of the Dragon-rider, Judith's story. I am only responsible for translating it, and for any content in ((double parentheses)).

PART 1: A CHANCE MEETING ON BALBUSA

Only the Voiceless Speak The Truth

((Editor's notes: My heart. Ba'ul and Judith are so cute.))

((The implication here is that "Ba'ul" is a word in Judith's ancient language, meaning freedom and all of that good stuff. Judith calls Ba'ul "kono ko", this child / this boy, but Hermes never does anything like that, so I tried to reflect how much she's humanizing him in her dialogue, while Hermes is not.))

((We don't know a lot about the Entelexeia, like why some of them can speak but Ba'ul can't, and some of them can shapeshift like Khroma but the others don't. It seems likely that Ba'ul doesn't understand the human language yet, but probably will in the future with some exposure to it.))

((Credits: Love still goes to rainfall for getting me the novels for the holidays and for helping me with a few confusing bits.))
This is the end of Part 1. The next part is Part 2: The Great Circle. It may be a little late coming out because of RL things cropping up next week.
