Maquia is a member of a special race called the Iorph who can live for hundreds of years. However, Maquia has always felt lonely despite being surrounded by her people, as she was orphaned from a young age. She daydreams about the outside world, but dares not travel from her home due to the warnings of the clan's chief. One day the kingdom of Mezarte invades her homeland. They already have what is left of the giant dragons, the Renato, under their control, and now their king wishes to add the immortality to his bloodline. They ravage the Iorph homeland and kill most of its inhabitants. Caught in the midst of the attack, Maquia is carried off by one of the Renato. It soon dies, and she is left deserted in a forest, now truly alone save for the cries of a single baby off in the distance. Maquia finds the baby in a destroyed village and decides to raise him as her own, naming him Ariel. Although she knows nothing of the human world, how to raise a child that ages much faster than her.

As one might expect from a modern anime movie, the animation is beautiful and very well-done but the story here is a little bland. It seems like the authors tried too hard to make it a sad story by making the characters cry all the time but when characters cry this frequently, it just becomes silly. The pacing of the movie also felt way off. There were multiple times where I felt like I missed an episode because it was skipping through time way too fast and other times, the movie would linger on

Good First N2 Movie
I was taken away with how beautiful the story and artwork was in this movie. From a language learning perspective I feel this would be a good first movie to try at the N2 level. Vocab for the most part felt very approachable however there are some fantasy leaning words to be careful of.
