Yoko Belnades/Dawn of Sorrow

Yoko Belnades

Yoko Belnades appears again in Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow. She encounters Soma along with Julius over a bridge in The Lost Village. After Julius performs a jump across the chasm to the other side, Yoko is forced to turn back with Soma. Soma escorts her to a safe place in the Lost Village were she teaches Soma how to use Magic Seals.

She opens a shop of sorts in the Lost Village afterward where Soma can synthesize his weapons into more powerful forms by using the souls of the monsters he gains dominance over. Furthermore, she can release those same souls from Soma's dominance, allowing Soma to change their effects, decrease their power, and allow him to gather new ones.

Soma Cruz Yoko Belnades Julius Belmont	Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow / The Lost Village / Old Friends Reunited Background Music: Pitch Black Intrusion When: Encounter with Yoko and Julius (At the drawbridge of castle’s entrance) Soma Cruz: Huh? Those two... (Soma approaches Yoko and Julius) Yoko Belnades: Oh! Soma! Julius Belmont: ... Soma Cruz: Yoko. Julius. What are you two doing here? Yoko Belnades: Funny you should ask that. We got wind of this cult from a tip by Arikado. I'm investigating with Mr. Belmont. I'm sure you remember him, the hunter. Julius Belmont: Soma, please understand. If the darkness draws you in... I have no choice but to destroy you. Soma Cruz: Yes, I know... Julius Belmont: Then, there is no reason for you to be here. Yoko Belnades: That's right. You're only putting yourself in danger. Soma Cruz: That Celia woman... Not only was she after me, she tried to harm Mina, too. I'm not gonna stop until I find her. Julius Belmont: You're determined, I see. Then, I have nothing more to say. (Julius leaves) Yoko Belnades: Wait. Wait, Julius. How can you just say that? Julius Belmont: I'll be going now. Yoko Belnades: Wait a second. I'm coming, too. Julius Belmont: No, Yoko, you stay. We'll need a contact here, just in case. Yoko Belnades: Hey, wait! You can't just...! (Julius jumps over the suspended bridge and leaves) Yoko Belnades: Men! They're so selfish! I bet you have no intention of going home, either. Soma Cruz: Well, uh... Yoko Belnades: Fine, then. Here, take this. (Yoko hands Soma the Magic Seal 1) Soma Cruz: And this is? Yoko Belnades: A Magic Seal. Soma Cruz: Magic Seal? Yoko Belnades: The cult leader appears to create gates that draw the power of darkness. Monsters exposed to that power are said to be invincible. Soma Cruz: So how am I supposed to destroy them? Yoko Belnades: That's where this Magic Seal comes in. Want to practice using it? Soma Cruz: Sure, I'll give it a try. Yoko Belnades: Good. Now watch closely. Draw a figure exactly as shown. (The Magic Seal is shown to Soma) Yoko Belnades: Okay, now you try it. (The Magic Seal is completed) Yoko Belnades: Good, that's it. Just don't forget how you did that. Oh, one more thing. You can practice drawing a Magic Seal anytime. If you're not sure how to do it, you should definitely practice. Soma Cruz: Got it. Yoko Belnades: A Magic Seal activates on its own when it's needed. Give it a try and see. Okay, now... Let's go, Soma. Soma Cruz: Huh? Go where? Yoko Belnades: It's a dead end here. Only Julius could get in from somewhere like this. We should go back and find a different way in. Soma Cruz: All right. If we have to... Yoko Belnades: There's no shelter from the rain and wind here, either. Will you escort me? Soma Cruz: Uh... Sure, of course. Yoko Belnades: Thanks. Let's go. (The two moves) Video:
Soma Cruz Yoko Belnades	Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow / The Lost Village / The First Magic Sealed Room Background Music: Pitch Black Intrusion (Outside the Flying Armor room of the Lost Village) Yoko Belnades: This door... It looks like you'll need a Magic Seal right away. (Soma breaks the seal on the door) Yoko Belnades: Most likely, you'll need a Magic Seal to finish off the monster in here. Just be calm and focus. I'll be waiting here. Soma Cruz: No problem. Video:
Soma Cruz Yoko Belnades	Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow / The Lost Village / Stronger Magic Seals When: After defeating Flying Armor (Yoko enters the room where Soma is) Yoko Belnades: You did it! Soma Cruz: Using Magic Seals is a piece of cake. Yoko Belnades: Don't be too sure. That Magic Seal won't be useful forever. Soma Cruz: What do you mean? Yoko Belnades: They will probably prepare new and more complex patterns for Magic Seals. Soma Cruz: Hmm... Yoko Belnades: But not to worry. They'll have the Magic Seal patterns hidden somewhere. If they don't, the gates to the dark side will be useless. Soma Cruz: I get it. Yoko Belnades: I won't keep holding you up as my escort anymore. I can manage now. Soma Cruz: You sure? In that case, I'll be going now. Yoko Belnades: Oh, there is one more thing though. Julius may have some new information, so come see me if you're close by. And Soma, please don't do anything reckless. Soma Cruz: Count on it. You take care, too, Yoko. Video:
Soma Cruz Yoko Belnades	Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow / The Lost Village / Yoko's Synthesizing Ability Background Music: A Fleeting Respite (In Yoko's synthesis room) Yoko Belnades: Oh, hi, Soma. Soma Cruz: You're going to act as Julius's contact here? Yoko Belnades: Yes. There was no one living here, so I thought it'd be okay. Oh, that rough-looking guy's right across from me. What was his name again? Soma Cruz: Hammer? Yoko Belnades: Yes, that's it. What is he doing here? Soma Cruz: He came to help me. Yoko Belnades: Honestly, you didn't ask him to come, did you, Soma? Soma Cruz: Of course I didn't. Yoko Belnades: I'm sure you wouldn't. But it's too dangerous for him to be here. Can't you tell him to leave, Soma? Soma Cruz: I told him already. He wouldn't budge. Besides, it's hopeless now. Especially after someone who's not supposed to be here showed up. Yoko Belnades: Huh? Well, if he wouldn't listen to you, I suppose it is hopeless. By the way, I gained a new ability. Soma Cruz: A new ability? What? Yoko Belnades: So, the power of dominance lets you control the souls of monsters, right? Soma Cruz: Right. Yoko Belnades: So I thought I could use magic to draw the monster souls out and use them. Soma Cruz: You mean release the souls? Yoko Belnades: Something like that. Of course, I would need your cooperation, Soma. And it's not something that's easy to do. Soma Cruz: So how do you plan to use these freed souls? Yoko Belnades: Well, I can fuse the freed souls with a weapon, thus creating a new weapon. The souls you use will be lost, though. Soma Cruz: Can you even do that? Yoko Belnades: That's rather rude of you to ask! I may not look the part, but I am considered an exceptional spell caster. Just tell me if you need something. I'll prove it to you. Soma Cruz: Okay, then. Yoko Belnades: Oh, and by applying my ability, I may be able to reduce the souls used. I'm not sure if you'll need it, but just keep that in mind. Soma Cruz: Got it. Yoko Belnades: So, may I help you with anything today? (Yoko's menu follows) Video:
Soma Cruz Yoko Belnades	Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow / The Lost Village / There's Something About Hammer Background Music: A Fleeting Respite (In Yoko's synthesis room) Yoko Belnades: Oh, Soma? Am I glad to see you! Soma Cruz: Glad? Yoko Belnades: What was that man's name? Hammer? Soma Cruz: Did he try something funny? Yoko Belnades: I often notice him glaring at me. Soma Cruz: (I don't think he's glaring, but...) Yoko Belnades: Since he is a neighbor, I usually give him a smile, but he always looks away. Did I do something to upset him? Soma Cruz: No, you're imagining it. He just looks rough, so it looks like he's glaring. I'll ask him about it the next time I have the chance. Yoko Belnades: You will? Thank you. How may I help you today? (Yoko's menu follows) Video:
Soma Cruz Yoko Belnades	Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow / The Lost Village / Burden Background Music: A Fleeting Respite (In Yoko's synthesis room) Yoko Belnades: Oh, hello. Can I ask you something? Soma Cruz: What is it? Yoko Belnades: It's about Julius. Do you think he considers me to be just a burden? Soma Cruz: I... I don't think he thinks that. Yoko Belnades: Soma, you saw him. At the drawbridge, he left without a word from me. He also said the monsters inside were tough, so I offered to help. And do you know what? He turned me down as if I were a child!! Soma Cruz: Whoa, calm down. Yoko Belnades: What? Are you on Julius' side, too, Soma? Soma Cruz: No, that's not it. I'm sure that Julius is just worried about you. Yoko Belnades: But I can fight, too. There's no need for him to worry about me! Soma Cruz: Yoko, you just don't understand how a guy thinks. He just cares about you and doesn't want to see you get hurt. That would be ten times worse than getting hurt himself. Yoko Belnades: But... Soma Cruz: You have to try to understand for his sake... If I were in Julius's spot, I think I'd say the same thing. Yoko Belnades: Really? Well, I guess I can see that... But waiting around all the time isn't much fun. When you get home, make sure you treat Mina right. Soma Cruz: Yeah, I know... Yoko Belnades: I'm glad I have someone to confide in. So, how may I help you? (Yoko's menu follows) Video:
Soma Cruz Yoko Belnades	Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow / The Lost Village / Inquiring About Dario Background Music: A Fleeting Respite (In Yoko's synthesis room) Yoko Belnades: Hi, Soma. Soma Cruz: Do you know anything about a man named Dario? Yoko Belnades: Dario Bossi. He has the ability to create fires. He's been implicated in countless inexplicable fires. He's a wicked criminal who's wanted all around the globe. Soma Cruz: I see. Yoko Belnades: That's all I know. Do you need anything else? (Yoko's menu follows) Video:
Soma Cruz Yoko Belnades	Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow / The Lost Village / Arikado's Presence Background Music: A Fleeting Respite (In Yoko's synthesis room) Yoko Belnades: Welcome, Soma. By the way, it appears as if Arikado came, too. Soma Cruz: Yeah, he said he's here to keep an eye on me. Yoko Belnades: I thought he was supposed to be guarding Mina. Soma Cruz: That's what I thought, too. That's why I came here feeling confident. Yoko Belnades: Well, since it is him, I doubt that there would be any problems. But his being here must mean this situation is very serious. Soma Cruz: He lectured me to behave. Yoko Belnades: I don't blame him. I would rather see you go home, too. Soma Cruz: But I... Yoko Belnades: I understand that. But it's not a bad thing to rely on the help of others. Don't try to carry the burden yourself. That's why we're here. Soma Cruz: ... Thank you. Yoko Belnades: So, how may I serve you today? (Yoko's menu follows) Video:
Soma Cruz Yoko Belnades	Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow / The Lost Village / Mina's Talisman Background Music: A Fleeting Respite (In Yoko's synthesis room) Yoko Belnades: Oh, Soma. I've got word from Arikado. Would you like to hear it? Soma Cruz: Of course. Yoko Belnades: Let's see... By equipping the talisman, it should suppress the darkness in your soul. You, of all people, should especially be aware of this. Soma Cruz: I see. Yoko Belnades: That's what Arikado had to report. Anything else today? (Yoko's menu follows) Video:
Soma Cruz Yoko Belnades	Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow / The Lost Village / Teasing Soma Background Music: A Fleeting Respite (In Yoko's synthesis room) Yoko Belnades: Oh, welcome. By the way, how do you think Mina's doing? I bet she's worried. Soma Cruz: I know. Yoko Belnades: With a boyfriend like you, it can't be easy for her. (Soma suddenly blushed) Soma Cruz: B-Boyfriend? We're not...! Yoko Belnades: No need to be so bashful. You're so easy to tease, you know that? Soma Cruz: ... Yoko Belnades: So, what'll it be today? (Yoko's menu follows) Video:
Soma Cruz Mina Hakuba Genya Arikado Hammer Yoko Belnades Julius Belmont	Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow / Outside the Castle / Good Ending Background Music: After Battle ~Blue Memories~ (Soma and Arikado watch the castle crumbling down) Genya Arikado: It's finally over. We're finished here. Let's go. Soma Cruz: ... Genya Arikado: Soma, what's wrong? Soma Cruz: Tell me. Just what is the dark lord? Genya Arikado: What Celia told you wasn't necessarily wrong. The dark lord is the entity opposite to god. Soma Cruz: Then that means there will always be a need for a dark lord. All because I ducked out from becoming the next in line! Genya Arikado: Don't misconstrue me! Perhaps there is a need for the dark lord... But there is no reason at all for you to become the dark lord. Soma Cruz: But if it weren't for me, none of this would have happened! Genya Arikado: You're neither a god nor a demon. You're only human. You have no chance at ever achieving perfection. Or are you saying you want to be the dark lord? Soma Cruz: No... Of course not. Genya Arikado: Then stay true to that. Look. (Yoko, Julius, and Hammer is shown not far from them) Genya Arikado: There are people waiting for you. Don't break their hearts. Soma Cruz: Everyone... Julius Belmont: You kept your promise. Yoko Belnades: Welcome back, Soma. Hammer: Looks like you're all done! Your face says it all. Soma Cruz: Arikado... You're right... (Mina arrives) Soma Cruz: Mina! What are you doing here? (Soma rushes toward Mina) Mina Hakuba: What do you mean? I was so worried... Soma Cruz: Oh, Mina, I'm sorry. Don't cry. Mina Hakuba: Gotcha! Welcome back, Soma. Julius Belmont: Poor Soma. She'll have you wrapped around her finger. Yoko Belnades: Oh, without a doubt. Hammer: I'd like to be wrapped around Yoko's finger... Soma Cruz: Wh-What are you saying? We're not like that! (Yoko, Julius, and Hammer laugh) Mina Hakuba: Th-That's right! Julius Belmont: No need to be bashful, you two. Genya Arikado: If the world needs a dark lord, it will emerge. Even if it's not you, Soma... (Ending credit) Video:
Julius Mode (edit)
Julius Belmont Yoko Belnades	Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow / The Lost Village / Yoko Joins Background Music: Beginning Julius Belmont: Yoko? Yoko Belnades: Julius! How rude of you to just run off without saying a word to me! Julius Belmont: Sorry, but this is my duty. I belong to the Belmont clan, after all. Yoko Belnades: Well, isn't that rather insulting? We Belnades have fought alongside the Belmonts to defeat Dracula. Julius Belmont: That's true, but... Yoko Belnades: You don't have to bear the grief alone. People support each other. I wish you would at least trust me a little more. Julius Belmont: You're right. I'm sorry. I do have faith in you. Yoko Belnades: And me in you. Video:
