Subaru:  He wanted no more of it. He didn’t want to think. He didn’t want to doubt. He didn’t want to trust. He didn’t want to be betrayed. He clutched his head, shutting himself in and cutting off all responses to the outside world.

Rem:  Calls his name several times. Seeing that there was no response, she gave up after a while and shifted her gaze back to the highway.

Narration:  By then, Subaru had finally, and by his own hand, become truly alone in that world.

Rem:  "—ru. I’m sorry, Subaru. Please wake up.” Subaru sensed someone calling him and shaking him awake. The touch on his shoulder roused him from the abyss of unconsciousness.

Subaru:  When he absentmindedly rubbed his eyelids with his hand and opened his eyes, he found the face of a familiar girl right in front of him. “…Rem, huh. What’s wrong?”
gpt
Narration:  The instant he was sure it was Rem, Subaru remembered their exchange before he slept. He felt a dull ache in his chest.

Rem:  Rem, not noticing how hard Subaru was working to endure that pain, lowered her head apologetically. After another brief apology for waking him, she said, “We are about to reach a fork in the road. As it is a landmark that cannot be mistaken even in the dead of night, it should be all right…but I want to be certain before we reach it.”

Narration:  The area around them was filled with deep darkness. Even with Rem sitting right beside him, her face seemed indistinct. The crystal lamp hanging from the land dragon’s neck and a simple light attached to the dragon carriage itself provided the only illumination. It was very little to go on—if not for land dragons with good night vision, then certainly for the humans.

Subaru:  “I see your point. What do you want me to do, though?”

Rem:  “I want to check the map, but I cannot take my hands off the reins… I put the map in the sack at your feet. Could you get it out for me?”
human
Subaru:  “At my feet. This, huh?” In the dark, he pulled over a fairly heavy sack. He set it on his lap and thrust in his hand to fish around, but finding what he was after proved rather difficult. “I can’t even tell what’s a map and what’s not. Isn’t it too dark to even read it?”
gpt
Rem:  “That is… Mm, that could be a problem. What shall we do…?”
human
Subaru:  “Yeah, what can we…? No, wait a sec.”
gpt
Rem:  Rem’s expression was clouded.

Subaru:  When a light suddenly turned on in Subaru’s head. Once again, he searched at his feet, picking something out of a different sack—the one with Subaru’s personal belongings. “Oh, I found it!” He took out the object, cool and hard to the touch, and thrust it in Rem’s face. Right in front of her wide eyes, Subaru pressed the power button of something he hadn’t held in ages.
