*                 Opening                  *
********************************************
Kane is now at 
Summit Temple. 

Kane: Daikak, 
      I have answered 
      your call! 

Daikak: Welcome, 
        brave warrior! 
        Enriku Temple 
        has been attacked 
        and plundered! 
        This can  
        only be the work 
        of evil forces. 
        It is the latest 
        of many such 
        attacks. 
        I fear it means 
        war, 
        though the 
        identity of the 
        enemy remains 
        unknown! 
        I sent 10 men from 
        Tokak village to 
        guard Enriku 
        temple, 
        but there has been 
        no word from them. 
        Kane, your destiny 
        is somehow bound 
        to the attacks on 
        our temples. 
        Our fates are in 
        your hands. 
        Will you go there 
        to help us learn 
        the nature of the 
        enemy? 

Kane: Count on 
      me. I shall not 
      fail! 

********************************************
*              Enriku Shrine               *
********************************************
Kane: Look at all 
      the destruction!
      The men of Tokak 
      have been wiped 
      out!
      Wait! 
      One of the men of 
      Tokak is 
      still alive! 

Tokak: The enemy 
       was fearsome! We 
       were slaughtered!

Kane: Tell me who 
      did this so I may 
      avenge you! 

Tokak: Izumo... 
       Unhh! 

With that, 
the fighter dies. 

Kane: Izumo? What 
      can it mean? 
      I must 
      return to Daikak!

Kane, filled with 
resolve, came to 
his feet and said:

********************************************
*              Summit Temple               *
********************************************
Daikak: Kane, you 
        have returned! 
        Report on 
        Enriku Temple! 

Kane: The men of 
      Tokak have 
      all been killed! 

Daikak: Do you 
        know who killed 
        them? 

Kane: The only 
      clue is the word 
      "Izumo."

Daikak: The town 
        where the council 
        resides? 
        Kane, go to Izumo 
        and discover what 
        you can. 
        And take this 
        Dokko with you. 
        You need 
        a weapon. 

********************************************
*                  Izumo                   *
********************************************
Kuma: Step right 
      up for a bowl of 
      great spaghetti! 
      There are 
      strange 
      goings-on at the 
      shrine! 
      You must be 
      new here! <SHRINE> 
      means Izumo 
      Shrine. 

********************************************
*              Izumo Shrine                *
********************************************
Kane: Only the 
      remains of some 
      pillars are here. 
      It looks 
      like they were 
      ripped out! 

In front of the 
main hall of the 
shrine. 
Someone else is 
here! 

Unknown enemy: Foul dog of 
               Summit Temple! 
               We shall crush 
               you like those at 
               Enriku, you Flea! 

Kane: You are the 
      ones that killed 
      the Tokak! 

Mysterious Enemy: Die! 

(after defeating the mysterious enemy) 

Mysterious Enemy: Kusanagi!!! 

With that word, 
the mysterious 
enemy disappears! 

Kane: Kusanagi?? 
      What does that 
      mean? 
      They left 
      something behind 
      when they left! 
      It seems 
      like some kind 
      of charm! 

Kane takes the 
charm. 

********************************************
*              Summit Temple               *
********************************************
Daikak: Kane! 
        What did you 
        learn? 

About 
Kusanagi

Daikak: Kusanagi? 
        The sword of 
        Kusanagi, maybe? 
        The sword of 
        Kusanagi is in the 
        Attaro Shrine. 

Use 
Charm 

Daikak: This is 
        some kind of 
        charm from Iwato 
        family. 
        I think I know who 
        is behind this 

About 
   Iwato 

Daikak: Their 
        hideout is on 
        Mt.Miwa in Nara. 

********************************************
*              Attaro Shrine               *
********************************************
Kane: Is that the 
      sword of 
      Kusanagi stuck in 
      the gate? 

Kane touches the 
sword... 

and then... 

"Get back!"

From somewhere 
there was a loud 
shout! 

Kane: Who was 
      that?? 

Jukak: Thief! 
       Scram!! 

(after defeating Jukak) 

Jukak: You are 
       persistent. 
       You are from 
       Summit Temple? 

Kane: Yes, but 
      how did you... 

Jukak: I am 
       Jukak. 
       I guard the sword 
       of Kusanagi. 

Kane: Guard??

Jukak: Yes, this 
       sword holds the 
       power of the 
       serpent god! 
       Some seek this 
       sword to use its 
       power for evil 
       purposes! 
       Have you come in 
       search of those 
       evil ones? 

Kane says 
nothing. 

Jukak: Then I will let 
       you in on a 
       secret. 
       This sword is a 
       fake! 

Jukak: Strange 
       fellow! You want 
       the fake sword? 
       Well,I guess I can 
       trust a man from 
       Summit Temple 
       with it. 
       Well, I'm no 
       longer needed! 
       Good-by! 

And with that, 
Jukak was gone. 

Kane takes the 
sword. 

********************************************
*                 Mt.Miwa                  *
********************************************
A suspicious old 
woman here in the 
foothills. 

Old Woman: This 
           mountain is 
           sacred! Go away! 

When Kane draws 
the sword there is 
a blinding flash! 

Old Woman: Auggh! 
           Help! 

The old woman 
doubles over in 
pain. 

Old Woman: That sword was 
           taken from Attaro 
           Shrine! 

The hidden power 
of the sword 
sucks up her 
magic power. 

Mysterious Enemy: I am the guard of 
                  Mt.Miwa. Leave 
                  now! 

********************************************

Wakahiko: You 
          have done well to 
          come this far, 
          Kane. 
          I am Wakahiko, of 
          the Iwato family. 
          You have come too 
          late, however! 

Kane: What are 
      you planning? 

Wakahiko: I've 
          been waiting 
          here...to kill 
          you. Die! 

(after defeating Wakahiko) 

Wakahiko: You are 
          the one caught in 
          the trap! 
          My friends are 
          calling forth the 
          serpent god! 
          I only had to 
          delay you! 
          You are doomed! 
          Ha,ha,ha! 

Kane kills 
Wakahiko.

Daikak: So! They 
        were after the 
        Kashima Shrine! 
        They only feigned 
        interest in the 
        sword of 
        Kusanagi. 
        Kane, quickly go 
        to defend the  
        Kashima Shrine! 
        If the shrine 
        falls, the serpent 
        will be freed! 

********************************************
*             Kashima Shrine               *
********************************************
Kane has arrived 
at Kashima Shrine 
someone is here! 

Enemy: We will destroy 
       the Shrine. 

Kane: Stop! The 
      serpent god must 
      not be freed! 

Enemy: Try to 
       stop us, whelp of 
       Summit Temple! 

(after defeating the enemy) 

Kane: What's 
      that? The man I 
      killed before had 
      that! 
      I've seen 
      that before... 
      A sword of 
      branches! 

Kane take the 
sword of branches.

********************************************
Daikak: Kane, 
        you're safe! I've 
        been waiting!  
        The enemy is after 
        the real sword of 
        Kusanagi! 
        We have been 
        played for fools! 
        The real sword may 
        yet be in the 
        underwater shrine. 
        We cannot let the 
        sword fall into 
        the enemy's hands! 
        Kane, you must 
        go to Shimono Port 
        quickly! 

Move to Shimonoseki

Daikak: Wait! Give 
        me the sword of 
        branches first! 
        The sword will be 
        safer here! 

Kane: Yes, 
      Daikak! 

Daikak: Also,give 
        me that charm 
        before you leave! 

Kane: Yes, 
      Daikak! 

Daikak: From here 
        on,the enemy will 
        be much tougher. 
        Don't depend on 
        that sword alone, 
        anymore. 
        The enemy from 
        now on in much 
        more experienced.

Kane: It seems 
      like a typical 
      port town, but... 
      There's a girl 
      over there, on the 
      pier! 
      She seems 
      lonely! Why, I 
      wonder! 
      Now she's 
      rowing away in a 
      boat! 
      There's a  
      whirlpool! The  
      boat has gone in! 
      I have to 
      do something 
      quick! 

Kane prays to 
Hatten. 

Kane: Hatten,blow 
      thy foes to their 
      destruction! 

Hatten sends a  
tornado into the 
midst of the 
enemy. 

Kane: I did it! I 
      saves the girl. 
      But now what? 

Kane prays to the 
god Makiri. 

Kane: Makiri, 
      give me strength! 

Kane flies into 
the air! 

Kane catches the 
girl just in time 
and returns to 
the pier! 

Kane prays to the 
god Kannon. 

Kane: Kannon, 
      guide thy humble 
      servant. 

Kannon opens the 
path to the 
temple of the 
phoenix. 

The spell works! 
Kane holds 
the girl and 
forces the evil 
spirits back to 
the underworld! 

Kane: You're 
      going to be 
      alright! 

Kane gently 
shakes the girl. 

Girl: Hmm...mmunh..huh? 

The girl regains 
consciousness! 

Girl: What...? Where 
      am...???

Kane: You were 
      seized by evil 
      spirits! 

Girl: I'm Midori. 
      I came to sit by 
      the sea.

Midori: I felt 
        someone calling 
        me. 
        Those spirits? 

Kane: Do you mind 
      if a ask you a few 
      questions? 

Midori: My grampa 
        might be able to 
        help you more. 
        Come see 
        him at our house. 
        Come with me!

Midori: Grampa, 
        this man wants to 
        ask about 
        spirits. 

Grampa: Eh? Out 
        to make trouble? 
        Go on back home! 

Midori: No, 
        Grampa! He's come 
        a long way! 
        Maybe he can 
        restore calm to 
        the spirits! 

Grampa: In that 
        case, I'm sorry. 
        I don't know 
        much... 
        Lately, 
        there's a lot of 
        disasters at sea! 
        All accidents 
        were strange,the 
        work of evil 
        spirits! 
        All I know is no 
        one will go out in 
        boats anymore! 

Kane: You've been 
      very helpful! 
      I must go now! 
      But I need 
      to find a 
      boat to go out 
      on the sea! 

Grampa: In that 
        case, I'll lend 
        you our boat. 
        It's an old boat,  
        do with it as you 
        like. 
        The evil 
        spirits killed my 
        son. Avenge him! 

Midori: Kane, 
        I'll take you to 
        the boat. 
        Come this way.

As Kane touches

The fake sword in

Dannoura. 
Kane's boat is 
surrounded by 
Iwato family. 

Head of Iwato Family: We've 
                      been waiting. The 
                      sword! 

Kane: Where have 
      you been hiding? 

Iwato: We've been 
       looking for the 
       sword of 
       Kusanagi! 
       That devil of a 
       ghost kept us 
       from finding 
       it, though! 
       You came just in 
       time to do our 
       work for us. 
       Give us the sword! 
       You have no use 
       for it! 

Kane: Never! 

Iwato: You aren't 
       very bright! 
       Get him,boys! 
       Enemy attack. 

Kane brandishes 
the sword of 
Kusanagi. 

The sword begins 
to release its 
pent-up energy. 

Kane is 
surrounded 
the men disappear 
one by one. 

Iwato: What is 
       happening? What 
       is the sword 
       doing? 
       The sword... 
       We...augghhh!! 

The remnants of 
the men of Iwato 
begin to run! 

Kane: The sword 
      of Kusanagi saved 
      me! 
      But I still don't 
      understand what 
      is really going 
      on. 
      Somehow this 
      mystery involves 
      me. 
      I first must 
      return to Daikak 
      and report to him. 
      Maybe he can 
      figure out what 
      is going on. 

Kane quickly 
heads back for 
Summit Temple.

        You have done 
        well to get the
        sword of 
        Kusanagi, but 
        you must now 
        return to Izumo 
        to revive the 
        serpent god of 
        the Iwato family. 
        This will answer

Asaka: Silence!

the main shrine. 

"Kane,you said you 
 wished to talk! 
 so do we! 
 Enter the main 
 hall of the 
 shrine!" 

(after entering the shrine)

Shimazu: Welcome, 
         Kane. What do you 
         want to say? 

Kane: I have come to 
      revive your god! 
      Why do you 
      prevent 
      me from righting 
      the wrong that 
      has been done? 

Shimazu: We  
         do want our 
         god revived...

Asaka: Shimazu! 
       Don't tell me you 
       believe him!! 

Shimazu: But 
         there are so many 
         riddles!
         Why can he use the 
         sword of Kusanagi? 
         And who has 
         restored our 
         powers, and for 
         what reason? 
         I think Daikak is 
         hiding something 
         from us! 
         Kane, a truce! I 
         want to talk with 
         Daikak! 

Shimazu and 
Asaka disappear... 

"Augghh!" 

Suddenly, Shimazu 
screams from 
outside! 

(after exiting the shrine)

In front of the 
main hall of the 
shrine. 

Shimazu and the 
others are being 
attacked 

Kane: I have to 
      go help them! 

(after defeating the enemy)

Kane: Shimazu, 
      are you O.K.? 

Shimazu: I'm done 
         for...please... 
         take this... 

Shimazu gives 
Kane a sphere. 

There is a 
strange mark on 
the sphere. 

Shimazu: I meant 
         to give you this 
         before, but... 
         this sphere will 
         help you to 
         restore our god! 

Kane: What were  
      all of you 
      planning to do? 

Shimazu: We 
         wanted to get 
         revenge for our 
         ancestors! 

Kane: Revenge?? 
      For your 
      ancestors? 

Shimazu: Against 
         the Tenson tribe 
         who stole our 
         land 
         Your people are 
         their 
         descendants. 
         All will be 
         resolved by the 
         serpent of 
         Yamato. 
         Kane, go to the 
         Kumano Shrine 
         and see Utsuho. 
         He will help you. 

Kane: Shimazu!! 

Peacefully, 
Shimazu breathed 
his last. 

Asaka: I'll 
       ensure that 
       Shimazu's wishes 
       are seen to 
       I will now believe 
       what you said 
       about our god... 
       But if I discover 
       that to be a lie, 
       I will kill you! 

With those words, 
Asaka 
disappears!

Utsuho: Who calls

        Summit Temple! 
        I will smash you 
        to avenge my 
        brothers! 

Kane then 
removes the 
sphere he got 
from Shimazu. 

Kane: Utsuho, 
      look at this! 

Utusuho: That was 
         Shimazu's! 

Kane: He gave it 
      to me and said to 
      come here! 

Utusuho: Ok, what 
         do you want to 
         say to me? 

Kane explains the 
events leading up 
to the present. 

Utsuho: Shimazu 
        and I questioned 
        our chief's plans. 
        I will show you 
        where the serpent 
        is, at Kakogen 
        in Hinokami. 
        I can't tell you 
        anymore than 
        that. 
        Asaka and I will 
        make sure you do 
        as Shimazu hoped. 
        Maybe someday we 
        will understand 
        each other 
        better. 

And with that, 
Utsuho 
disappears.

Kane senses a 
great amount of 
energy in the air. 

Kane: There must 
      be something in 
      that caldron! 
      This looks 
      like some sort of 
      entrance! 
      There's a 
      round depression 
      here... 

Kane places 
Shimazu's sphere 
in the hole. 

Kane: Oww! I got 
      an electric 
      shock! 
      It's no 
      use. I can't put 
      the sphere here. 

Kane prays to 
Indra, god of 
lightning. 

Kane: Indra, 
      strike thy foes 
      with thy fury! 

Indra sends a 
bolt of lightning 
down on the enemy! 

The power in the 
cauldron 
was destroyed by 
the force. 

Kane places the 
sphere in the 
hole. 

The top burst off 
of the caldron! 

Kane: There seems 
      to be a passage 
      inside!

      There's a

Akaka and Utsuho

badly wounded. 

Utsuho: Daikok 
        fights the rebirth 
        of the snake. 
        But the snake got 
        away from him! Do  
        you have any 
        news? 

Kane: I found a 
      battleship, but 
      not the snake! 

Utsuho: You  
        didn't know?! 
        The <snake> is the

        An ancient god was 
        <transplanted> 
        into the computer! 
        He has watched  
        over the people of 
        Iwato since then! 
        Daikok only 
        knows how to 
        restore a god, 
        not a machine 
        but he can

Suddenly, the 
warriors appear 
as evil beasts! 

Kezeus: Our plan 
        to lure you here 
        has worked well! 

Kane: You... you 
      are practicers of 
      magic? 

Kazeus: That 
        matters not to 
        you, a dead man! 
        Daikak was a pawn 
        we used to fool 
        Summit Temple! 
        He never knew we 
        controlled him. 
        He bought us 
        enough time! Now 
        you shall die! 

Kane defeats 
Kezeus! 

Kezeus: Daikok, do 
        not let Kane live! 
        He hinders us! 

With a last order 
to Daikok, Kezeus 
vanishes! 

Daikok seems to be 
here, wearing 
strange armor. 

Kane: You say 
      nothing! 
      Open your eyes! 

Daikok starts 
speaking 
gibberish. 

Kane: It's 
      no good, 
      He's crazy! And 
      dangerous! 

(after defeating Daikok)

Kane: The rest of 
      the armor is 
      broken and 
      useless. 
      Hey! This 
      mark was on 
      Shimazu's sphere! 

Kane takes the 
armored glove.

the hand imprint. 

Computer: ID 
          confirmation 
          complete. 

Kane's mind 
merges with that 
of the 
serpent-god Ooku! 

Ooku: Long ago 
      the Iwato ruled 
      a highly advanced 
      world. 
      In their time 
      they trapped an 
      evil lord which 
      threatened their 
      planet. 
      But in trapping 
      the beast they 
      used up their 
      magic force and 
      were ruined. 
      For many years 
      they kept 
      this beast trapped 
      in a pyramid on a 
      distant planet. 
      When your people 
      came, the few 
      remaining Iwato 
      decided not to 
      interfere, choosing 
      instead to fade 
      away, taking the 
      secret of the 
      evil lord with 
      them. 
      This is the truth 
      behind the 
      legends. 
      Kane, evil beings 
      seek to revive the 
      evil lord. 
      He is trapped in 
      the pyramid on 
      Mt.Minakami! 
      This ship is 
      heading for the 
      place. 
      You must stop the 
      forces of evil 
      from taking over 
      the pyramid! 

Computer: Throttle up to 
          120 percent; all 
          systems go. 
          Flight path is 
          clear. Ameno is 
          ready for 
          takeoff. 

The ameno has 
arrived at 
Mt.Minakami. 

Ooku: We cannot 
      help you much, 
      Kane! 
      I will spare you 
      as much energy as 
      I can! 
      That is all 
      we can do for you. 
      We can't give 
      more 
      The extra 
      strength should 
      help you in future 
      struggles. 
      We are all 
      counting on you, 
      Kane! 

The ship's 
transporter hums

Now at the north 
side of the 
pyramid.

Kane prays to the 
god Makiri. 

Kane: Makiri, 
      give me strength! 

Kane calls on his 
power and flies 
up in the sky. 

Kane is standing 
on top of the 
pyramid! 

Kane takes out 
the pyramid point. 

Kane: Oops! 

The pyramid point 
slips out of 
Kane's hand. 

The pyramid point 
is resting on the  
tip of the 
pyramid. 

Kane: This is all 
      very strange. 
      Maybe... 
      I better go down 
      and investigate 
      again. 

(after reaching the end of the pyramid)

Demon appears. 

Demon: Welcome to your 
       farewell party, 
       Kane! 

Kane: I've been 
      tricked! 

Demon: Very 
       perceptive! Say 
       your prayers! 

Kane: What do you 
      mean? 

Demon: I have 
       someone special to 
       kill you! Regina!
       Disappears, a girl 
       on armor appears. 
       Her  
       names is Regina, 
       she is your equal. 
       Regina! Kill him! 

Regina attacks! 

Kane: You must be 
      possessed! 

But Regina does 
not here Kane's 
words. 

Kane: Wake up! 
      I don't want to 
      have to kill you! 

Regina attacks again!

Kane: You are 
      going to have to 
      kill or be 
      killed! 

Regina finally 
hears Kane's 
words. 

Suddenly 
confused, Regina 
attacks again... 

Kane: I know that 
      your true self  
      lies hidden inside 
      I can see that you 
      really are a 
      gentle person... 
      Let's stop 
      fighting. Call out 
      your true self. 

Regina: Kane! 

Regina's tears 
wash over Kane's
wounds. 

Immediately, Kane 
regains his 
strength! 

Demon: Kane, 
       your days are 
       numbered! 
       I will free the 
       lord of darkness 
       despite you! 

The echo of 
Demon's 
laughter lingers. 

Kane: Demon  
      has begun his 
      work already! 

Demon: You 
       are already too 
       late, Kane! 
       He will soon be 
       free, and you 
       shall perish! 

Kane: It's  
      hopeless! I'm 
      trapped! 

(after defeating Demon) 

Kane fells 
Demon! 

Demon: Impossible! I can 
       not be killed... 
       I am head of the 
       evil lord's army! 
       I do not die 
       cheaply! 
       Before I die, 
       I will 
       free my lord! 

Kane: The 
      pyramid...!! It's 
      collapsing! Run! 

Gragging Regina, 
Kane heads for 
the ship! 

Kane and Regina 
head for

        opened?

Kane: Yes. The 
      enemy's forces we 
      did defeat, 
      but... 

Daikak: If the 
        dark lord is 
        revived... 
        We have to rely 
        on the gods to 
        help us. 
        Kane, ride the 
        Ameno to the 
        underworld! 
        Find Izanami! 
        Perhaps Izanami 
        will bless you 
        with a gift. 
        The dark lord has 
        been freed, but he 
        is still 
        not awake. 
        We must hurry 
        before he begins 
        to stir! 

Kane: Count on

      fail! 

Once again, Kane 
boards the Ameno.

         to kill 
         the Dark Lord... 
         You, Kane, must 
         do it yourself. 

Kane: Huh, 
      me...? 

Izanami: You 
         received a gift 
         of increased power

         much energy. 
         Concentrate the 
         energy using the 
         sacred mirror. 
         Use the sword of 
         Kusanagi to draw 
         the power into 
         yourself!

         power...along

the cornerstone. 

Kane: I can feel 
      terrific energy 
      pouring forth! 

The energy begins 
to take the form 
of a snake! 

Kane: The serpent 
      god!

*                  Ending                  *
********************************************
The evil lord and his armies 
have been defeated. 
But as long as suffering 
exists, the threat that 
the Dark Lord will return 
remains. 

You must strive to relieve 
that suffering. The road 
ahead of you is long, hard 
and endless. You must not 
pause, but journey ever 
onward. For that is your 
destiny, Master of Spells.
