When the enemy planes are shot down and driven away, Izetta takes Fine to join the retreating Eylstadt army, where she reminisces about how they met.
when the Landsbruck sky was 
filled with barrage balloons.
الذي تمتلئ فيه سماء لاندزبيرغ
بوابل من المناطيد
an dem Sperrballons den Himmel
von Landsbruck bedecken …
en el que el cielo de Landsbergg
se llenaría de globos de barrera.
en el que el cielo de Landsbergg
se llenaría de globos de barrera.
in cui il cielo di Lantzbruck sarebbe stato
pieno di palloni da sbarramento?
em que o céu de Landsbergg estaria
 cheio com balões de barragem.
